I first heard about Oak Leaf Landscaping through my best friend, who has used Alex for over 5 years…read moreand always raves about how consistent and reliable he is -- her yard genuinely never looks anything less than perfect. Based on that, I hired him for my own home in Hayes Barton, and I completely understand the loyalty now. Alex is one of the most responsive contractors I've worked with. He communicates quickly, shows up when he says he will, and takes real ownership of problems as they come up -- not just routine lawn care, but things like storm-damaged limb removal, irrigation system repairs, fixing loose stones in our driveway and patio, and replacing shrubs and bushes that didn't survive. Nothing feels like an inconvenience to him; he just handles it. I've since recommended Oak Leaf to my parents and several friends, and everyone has had the same experience -- honest pricing, dependable service, and genuine attention to detail. If you're in the Raleigh area and looking for a landscaper you can actually trust long-term, Alex and his team are it.

It was full of hair algae, large pockets of it and the water was murky. Gone were the huge goldfish and being able to see the bottom. Horsetail bamboo seems to be growing out of control. We walked over to the greenhouses and several were filled with blight consumed plants, rows and rows of them. Instead of closing the doors on them, they were wide open spreading the blight across the property. We went through the gift shop and the cashier never acknowledged us, he was sitting in the dark staring at his phone. We are totally disappointed in the loss of a landmark business.

Delivery is included in the price and it still beats every other place in the area I've called for soil and rocks. There's a place less than five minutes from my house that can't even come close to these guys! Bonnie is great to work with in helping you figure out how much you need. They have samples of the rocks in bins by the office to decide what type you'd like. I've gone out to the yard previously to look at soil too. I ordered Monday late morning and it was delivered early Wednesday morning, which for me was a perfect turn around time. The driver did a great job too dumping the rocks exactly where I wanted them. All things combined, this is why I've been a happy repeat customer.

I look forward to working through the pile and going back for more.

The owner, Usman, is fantastic to work with and he and his crew did the job exactly how we had discussed.
