MDG is simply amazing and I am not a person who typically leaves reviews for companies - but they have delivered such great work that I wanted to share my experience. Before starting our landscape renovation, I asked for recommendations from friends and also searched the internet for highly rated landscapers whose website had pictures that looked like what we wanted. From that, we narrowed it down to 4 companies to come to our home and propose on our project. After interviewing and discussing our project with all of them, MDG was the only one that listened to what we wanted, impressed me with their suggestions on how we can get more for less cost, and gave us options to the things we wanted to do. They were far and above the easiest and most knowledgeable of the companies we talked to. Furthermore, both Ryan and Andrew came out to discuss our project and worked together to find solutions to some of the trickier situations. Once we received all the estimates, we were once again completely impressed with the detailed line item breakdown of our project, exactly what we had discussed, and with exact pricing. None of the other recommended or highly rated companies even compared to it. We had made our decision.
Upon securing them to our project, which was several months away, they provided us with a computer drawing of our project, as well as a CAD drawing which was fantastic for us to be able to imagine the final landscape look. They were always willing to discuss changes, adjust the estimate, or make suggestions prior to our start date. And they never asked for any money prior to the start date - they just required 1/2 on the day they arrived and the other 1/2 once the project was finished and we were satisfied.
The first day of the project, neither Andrew or Ryan were here, and to be honest...we were a little concerned that perhaps we were going to have to walk the crew through what needed to be done. This was not the case at all and to our amazement, Eddie the project manager new EXACTLY what was to be done - in great detail. We found out later in the process that Eddie, Andrew and Ryan (the three brothers) had regular meetings with all of our information, drawings and pictures so they all knew precisely what was expected. Unbelievable! They showed up exactly when they said they would, if not a bit earlier, worked through the days and made extraordinary progress each day. Throughout the two weeks they performed the work, Andrew and Ryan were on the job many times to ensure that everyone was on the same page - The crew was respectful, hardworking, polite and friendly, and their workmanship is second to none. And I can't say enough great things about Eddie's day-to-day oversight of the work... Eddie was amazing, and was so good at everything he did for us... not only does he deliver great work, but he is very personable and easy to get along with - in fact, I would say if you can't get along with this guy, then the problem may be you (lol).
Each day, after they completely cleaned up our yard, the street, etc., Eddie would check in with us to discuss where they were in the process and what to expect the next day. We were never confused as to their progress or what to expect next. As the project was underway, we would ask for slight changes which they completely managed without any issues. They were incredibly flexible and knowledgeable along the way. If a change order was needed, we were notified if it would adjust the original quote and could make a decision so that there were NO surprises.
Andrew has extensive knowledge on plants, shrubs, flowers and trees and was able to give us information that helped make decisions on what was right for our yard. We were able to meet Andrew at a boulder yard to pick out exactly what we wanted and he showed up to our project to personally place the boulders. They did a complete redo on the front lighting in our yard and they showed up in the evening to put the final touches on it. It is stunning at night - and exactly what we wanted. We are constantly getting positive comments on how it looks.
This is not something that most people do on a regular basis. I would suggest that if a landscape renovation is what you are looking for, look no further. This company has the most outstanding customer service we have ever seen. They are a detailed, responsible, hardworking, and extremely talented company. They take pride in their work, value their customers and the relationships. Bottom line - they delivered exactly what they said, for the price we agreed to and it looks exactly like the pictures. They are the best landscape company out there read more
