I've had the pleasure of working with Adrian and Upscaled Yard & Gardens for the past couple of…read moreyears. There are two main differences in working with this company, as opposed to others: 1) The work is going to get done better than you envisioned. Adrian takes as much pride in his work as you would. Maybe more. 2) The price is much more reasonable than others we've had quoted. Adrian will communicate with you. I'm constantly surprised how considerate he is of your time, and all of his customers. You know when he's there, when he's leaving and when he'll be back. He takes a great deal of pride in his work; it really shows. I had him help me with the landscaping before a September wedding on the lower patio. Everyone commented on how good it looked.

Micheal came out and gave me an accurate estimate and booked a day to do the work. He arrived on…read morethe day ready to complete as much as possible. Micheal worked hard all day with a brief stop for lunch, arriving at nine and leaving at five. He completed all of the work and checked in whenever he had questions about what I wanted done. He cleaned up the site and took away all of the yard waste. I was very happy with the service.

We emailed this business and called and left a message four days ago. So much for 20 minutes!read more

Higher Ground dug and planted a beautiful garden in our backyard. Then they filled all the pots in…read moreour front yard with gorgeous annuals that I never could have done on my own. They also planted more perennials in the front garden and took out bushes that were too big and spreading and replaced them with more appropriate bushes. They were on time always and very efficient. Christian is very upbeat and never made me feel bad about any gardening mistakes that I had made on my own. Higher Ground is extremely easy to deal with and very creative especially since I only have a small but now beautiful space. I love my garden both in the front and backyard!

SCAM ALERT: Please do not call Trevor Heshka. We paid him in advance for a job on Aprill 11th and…read morehe left with our money and never finished the job. After finally reaching him he gave us several excuses, however, he never did come to finish the job even though he received payment in full. Very disappointed.

I used Trevor's services a few years ago and had the same complaints that a couple of other…read morecustomers mentioned in their reviews. Some work was completed just fine but the rest was left undone and even though I contacted him repeatedly asking if he would be coming back to finish work we had agreed that he do, he never responded. Fortunately, he wasn't paid for anything that he hadn't done so I didn't lose money, but I was still disappointed. There are far too many people out there claiming to run businesses, especially landscaping, who often don't have the skills and/or proper business practices to keep their customers satisfied and their businesses financially viable. They really give a bad name to other competent landscaping businesses that do excellent work and treat their customers fairly.
