If you have a landscaping project, you want to go with Josh at Dreamscapes. I revamped my entire…read moreyard and have gotten tons of compliments; even people stopping their car in the street to run up the driveway and ask who did the installation. I moved into my house 2 years ago, and some previous owners were an older couple who loved to garden. There were huge flower beds all over the yard with lots of things in there. Before they sold, however, these beds were unattended and started to go crazy with growth and weeds, as did the grass around it. With a new baby on the way for me, there was no way I could manage keeping up everything, and I wanted it handled right, so I called Josh and had him come out to take a look. Josh talked over my goals for a whole-yard revamp and combined my asks with his extensive experience to come up with a plan on how to remove the beds, re-grade some of the yard, and install extra drainage to make everything look good. Although 2020 and 2021 were not the best times for materials (in many industries, including landscaping) which delayed the project a while, Josh kept us up to date with his progress until his team was ready to install. The install went smoothly over the course of a few days, and Josh was there to help with guidance on watering to keep everything growing correctly. He stopped by every few days to check on things (although he didn't need to) and help me adjust watering times and sprinkler placement. Even now, weeks after the installation, he's still super responsive to my questions and has helped me keep everything looking good through the summer. If you want a landscaping project done right with a company that cares about long-term success for your yard, Dreamscapes is the way to go. I really can't recommend them enough.

The owner was incredibly…read moreresponsive, always available to address questions and on several occasions went above and beyond to ensure our project ideas came to fruition.

The DreamScapes crew was hardworking, efficient, on time and thoughtful with their work ethic. I've worked with several landscaping companies in the raleigh area- they are truly the best and provide the highest quality. Could not recommend them more highly! Thank you again

We hired Cat to create a design for our property, which had only basic plantings from the builder…read more Her work was truly outstanding. Cat has an encyclopedic knowledge of plants and how they grow together. She is passionate about building sustainable, liveable outdoor spaces and works with you to design what you want and can maintain. She creates a detailed site plan and accompanying binder that shows you every plant she recommends, where it goes, and how big it will get. This helps you picture how everything (plants and hardscape) fits together. You can decide how to tackle the project, whether in phases or all at once. Cat recommends professionals you can use, but she also provides you with everything you need to undertake the project by yourself if you prefer. The plan she gives you is remarkable, and it reflects your ambitions for your property. It was a joy working with Cat. If you are looking for someone to help you think about a plan for your property, she would be a marvelous choice!

If you have existing plants you want to keep, Susan can put those in the plan and integrate them with everything else. Susan is super responsive and has a great, respectful crew for installation. At this house they also installed a drip system to help get the plants settled in. We had a massive swing set in the backyard with gravel under it. They dug the gravel out and brought in amendments - 10 years later it looks wonderful. You won't regret working with Susan!

I actually called the store and spoke to the store manager whose name was David just so I could tell him how pleased I was with his employee and he was just as I love going to Logan's, but just to know that I can call and ask questions and not be rushed off the phone or just told anything or given the famous "well I will check and see and the answer is they never check and see" was just totally awesome so if you guys ever need anything for your plants, as I said, I have been going there for years the customer service is superb.

TLDR: Large selection of plants and gardening supplies. Free parking. Expensive prices…read more I really wanted to love this place, but it fell short for me. What really bothered us were the prices. I have been to several garden shops in the area and this is the most expensive. Even their discounted items are still pricy. I ended up not buying anything and visiting a different garden shop. I was able to find most of what I needed here and more but they were not worth the price. I do like how organized the shop is. Having so many plants can't be easy to keep organized and healthy. I like how things are labelled and their large selection. Discount sections are nice and so is the free parking. The center was easy to locate and park. I was surprised to find an expansive garden shop in downtown Raleigh. Overall, we enjoyed walking through the shop, but found the prices too expensive.

0 Stars - A Complete Waste of Time…read more If you're considering Total Masonry for any work, do yourself a favor and DON'T. I hired them for a simple concrete job that should have taken two days, but after three months of constant rescheduling, it became clear they had no intention of doing the work. They rescheduled me more than 15 times! Some excuses, like heat waves, made sense, but most were just ridiculous--family issues, vacations, or being busy with other customers who I had booked before. It's clear that they prioritize everyone and everything over their clients. Dimitri, the owner, had no problem collecting the $1000 deposit the same day of our agreement, but took over 10 days to return it when I finally had enough. They basically wasted my entire summer stringing me along, offering one excuse after another, without ever starting the job. If you want to deal with a company that treats its customers like an afterthought, go ahead and hire Total Masonry. Otherwise, avoid them at all costs and find someone who actually wants to work. This isn't a business--it's a joke.
