I'm having erosion and drainage issues on my property and, based on a recommendation on Nextdoor I…read moredecided to contact Shady Grove for an estimate. First they couldn't come out until November (almost 1.5 months) just to do the estimate. Then, they have a $2500 minimum for doing work ("we're a small company", they said). In my particular case the budget/minimum might not be an issue (I don't think it's a small job). Got them to come out next week because my issue is somewhat urgent. About twenty minutes later they called back and said I was already in their database. They don't know why. The last time I had any landscape work done was several years ago, and it was not by Shady Grove. They assure me it's because they've already come out to provide an estimate. But they have no other records. They only have my name and contact information. So, because I'm in their system, they wanted to charge $75 because they "must" have come out before... No thanks. I am an fairly organized person. On a lark I searched my email history and, lo and behold, I find the email thread with Shady Grove. From 2011. Where I *CANCELED* my appointment. So, because of their poor record keeping and a need for $75 not only did they lose an entire project but they also earned a negative review and lost any potential for future work. In the grand scheme of things looking at their other reviews on other sites it's clear that they do quality work. But I can't deal with this kind of silly shenanigans.

We recently hired SG to do some landscaping, hardscaping and water management and drainage design…read moreand they were a dream to work with. They worked with us to create options that balanced cost and complexity, drew out a plan before beginning so we knew exactly what we'd get, and didn't freak out when we asked for changes. They also arrived on time and completed everything according to schedule. What sets SG apart for me, though, is their high level of taste and design and their incredible attention to detail. Whenever Fern saw something that was not up to her exacting standards (even if we thought it was fine) she would have her team break it down and start over. As a result we are extremely happy with the result and recommend them highly. After seeing so many landscaping companies with mixed reviews, I'm really happy we found the gold standard.

Najet and Christian did a an amazing job--above and beyond…read morewhat we requested. They were prompt and very detailed in all the work they did. We needed two flower beds cleaned out and prepped for a new crop. They spent extra time clearing out all the unwanted bulbs and even roots from a defunct holly bush. Added top soil and even planted the new plants I brought in. We then asked them to add another job to the list once we saw how meticulous their work was. Their price was very reasonable. We will definitely call them again.

We also had about 9 knockout rose bushes removed in the process, as they had become to hard for us to maintain, plus the yard is on a bad slope. The process went smoothly and quickly. Some nice, colorful, low growing plants were installed plus a large single trunk crape myrtle was added on the corner of the house. The plants he selected have given us some beautiful color variation and some beautiful texture. I HIGHLY recommend Weisert Landscaping Services. My hubby and I are extremely happy with the outcome! Thanks again Jim!

I signed a contract for slightly less than $10,000 but during installation I was told that the…read moredesigner had ordered the wrong number of plants and that I needed to fork over $500 more. I foolishly agreed to this, because he was making it sound necessary to finish the landscaping and he was clearly not offering to pay for his own mistake. I like some things that were planted, but the overall look is not at all what I expected (I acknowledge that the guy walked me through it, and I just decided to trust him). My husband hates everything about it.

Gibbs did work on our yard but a few items did not bloom. We were told to give it a season or now…read moretwo. Several emails and calls with none returned. Thought we hired one of the best, but follow up/follow through after the sale has been horrible. Two dead bushes and the 'no wall of ivy wall". These are but a few examples of what did not work. Think I'll add more soon. Update: Gibbs has reached out and is looking to help here. Will update review post that engagement. Update 2: Peter came out from Gibbs today and reviewed and addressed our concerns. Gibbs really leaned in and was very apologetic that this ask fell through the cracks. I cannot say enough good things on how much better we feel served now. Great job Peter at making things right.

We were having a hard time getting other landscaping businesses to even return my call? I absolutely no idea where to start and was stumped for months before I finally called Venyscapes . Sara offered her expertise and designed our yard beautifully. I was worried we wouldn't be able to get any plants in before it got too cold, but Sara and her team were more than accommodating and came out within the same week. Her team is professional and respectful of our property, our cars in the driveway and cleaned everything up afterwards. Sara is friendly, effectively communicates throughout the day, and quotes are very reasonable. I'm so glad to have found such a reputable company and will remain a loyal customer every season! Our neighbors are even admiring our yard and commenting on how colorful and balanced our front yard looks. I can't wait to see how our yard looks in the spring.
