I am thrilled to write a recommendation on behalf of Rhine Landscaping. My husband and I moved…read moreinto a new home and had our front and side yard landscaping done by another company (McLaughlin Landscaping). The results were not what we had asked for and in less than a year, plants died. We tried several times to reach the owner of the company and, after telling us lie after lie, he stopped returning our calls. We decided to cut our losses and contacted Rhine Landscaping for help. We had heard great things about Rhine Landscaping and they did not disappoint! We first met with Jay and walked through our landscaping "repair" needs with him. We also needed help with our irrigation and lighting, that had also been work done by the previous company. Jay put us in contact with some amazing people within his company. We worked with Greg on our landscaping designs and Kevin from Aqua Brite for our lighting and Irrigation needs. Greg worked with us to put together a landscaping design that utilized some of our existing plants/shrubs/trees and added the additional type of plants/shrubs/Trees that we had originally hoped for. He was extremely knowledgeable and made great recommendations. Originally, we thought that we would have to scrap all of the work that had been done previously, but Greg was able to work with our current situation and partnered with us on where change may be necessary to get the effect we were looking for. He was right on target!! Additionally, Greg and Kevin worked together to ensure our irrigation was set up correctly for the new landscaping plan and that the lighting was placed in the best position to highlight our home. We could not be more pleased with the outcomes. We had been in a really bad position with our landscaping and any company could have come in and told us we needed to start again, costing us a significant amount of money. I have the utmost of respect for Jay and his team.....Rhine is truly a reputable company! They partnered with us throughout the entire process and made us feel that they really did care about our situation and that they wanted to help us achieve the results we had hoped for. We love our landscaping now and look forward to working with Jay and his team on future projects.....next up, the patio!!!

We decided to get a quote from Rhine after they did a good job with tree maintenance/ removal and…read moreafter our neighbors recommended them. Unfortunately, our experience did not meet expectations. We paid $900 up front for the design document for a screened in porch and paver patio. Rhine doesn't provide design documents as part of the quote. You need to pay for it. Honestly the design document was nothing special; It was a 2D computer generated drawing, which I doubt could have taken the designer more than a day to develop. Also, we were told that we could use the design document with other contractors, but the document didn't include dimensions or measurements. Ultimately we didn't get a lot of value out of the design document, and we consider it a wasted expense. (Thank goodness we didn't pay the full rate of $1,800 for the design document!) Additionally, it took us several attempts to meet with the designer. He was a no-show for our first meeting (he had a personal emergency, which is understandable), but then it took several emails to land on a new appointment time. He was then late to the rescheduled appointment. We also requested design revisions via email, and we had to follow up several times to get an acknowledgment of our request, with additional follow up needed to actually get the revised version back. Finally, the quoted rate for our project compared to local competition was simply outrageous. The project cost range was about 1.5-3 times more expensive than quotes we got from other vendors. Additionally, other vendors provided 3D design renders at no cost as part of their quote. We asked what was the explanation for such a high quote: did this include all premium materials? We were told that the quote included standard materials, and that if we wanted to choose custom / premium materials, the price would go up from there. My sense was that the scope of the project was too small for them, so they quoted us something outrageous so we wouldn't go with them. But if that's the case, the business owner should have been up front with us that they only take on bigger projects before taking $900 for what wound up being a lackluster design document. Overall, we felt that we got little value from our quote process, compounded by lack of professionalism and lack of respect for our time with regard to our interaction with Rhine. If you own a multimillion dollar home and you have deep pockets then maybe Rhine will be more suited to your purposes. But it seems that Rhine is in a different market than smaller jobs for regular suburban homes in and around Ellicott City.

I had one stone come loose right after our last snow and I contacted David about it. He sent someone out in less than a week to repair it. And recently, I contacted them to do a spring clean-up, redo a garden with the addition of a retaining wall, and to install stone steppers on a hill. From start to finish, it was professionalism all the way. David was very prompt in putting the proposal together and after I agreed with the terms, he got me on the schedule for work to be done in less than 3 weeks. The team was extremely nice, courteous, prompt. I would highly recommend this company.

He did not give me a design. So I did my own sketch and (foolishly) still hired the company. Despite following all aftercare directions, more than half of the plants failed. I started investigating and found that the crew installed plants with the plastic plant tags buried in the ground with the plant. Mulch used by the company was infested with a nasty fungi that took a lot of time this spring to get rid of. There really was no followup to speak of. The rep said he would share with the crew supervisor that the mulch had a fungus attached to it. Lisa, their administrative person, was very professional and on top of things. I have nothing but good things to say about her. But we are now $3,000 in debt for a poorly executed landscaping job. It makes me never want to hire another landscaping company. I am a gardener and could have done a better job myself and saved a lot of money.
