While looking at the plants, Trent approached us and we found him very pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable. Jim visited us the next day presenting a plan. Though they were backed up until June, only 10 days after Jim's visit, a team including both Jim and Trent came and completed the job. They took advantage of a narrow window of opportunity to help us. We are very pleased with their knowledge, honesty, and dependability. We'll seek their help in the future. Thank you, guys.

Twenty years ago when my house was built, which was long before my time in it, Jim Shreckhise was…read morethe landscaper responsible for creating the eye-sore that is now my front yard. Below I will present the details of his job then, as well as his recent, equally bad, proposed solution to the problems that he created 2 decades ago. I will try to keep it brief so that you can quickly move on to a landscaping company that knows what it is doing. -At the front corner of the driveway: 3 weeping cherries all within an 8-foot triangle pattern. Now huge and unbearable, they have created subterraneous root systems that permeate the yard, creeping under the driveway, which has buckled as a result. Why anybody would put 3 potentially huge trees in such an undersirable location is beyond me, but it is clear that he did not take the future of the yard into consideration. Every year they must be cut back extensively so that I can pass through the driveway. The city, also, has notified me twice that they must be cut back from the street so that drivers could have full visibility. -Flanking the front door: 2 Japanese red maples so close to the house and porch that they constantly have to be trimmed, year after year. -Right in front of my front door: 5 dogwoods in a completely unnatural and unpleasing zig-zag position, so close together that they are now entangled in one another. -The rest of the front yard: DOZENS of juniper, holly, another gigantic oak tree, more dogwoods, 5 barberry bushes, 5 dwarf pine trees, 3 golden mop cypress, and a tri-color beech that now takes up half of the front yard area. In summary, the landscaping now looks like an overgrown forest area that probably cost a fortune for the home's original owner. Two years ago, I thought I would give Shreckhise another chance and asked him to propose a solution to the high-maintenance clutter that he originally created. I had two criteria: it had to fit within my budget, and had to be as low-maintenance as possible. His idea was to rip about 90% of the plants out and plant $6,000 of rose bushes, holly and boxwoods, all in aesthetically unpleasing geometric patterns throughout the yard. How is $5,000-6,000 worth of rose bushes low-maintenance?! Needless to say, I did not call him back about his plan. Shreckhise may have decent ideas at the time, but he does not take into consideration anything that might happen in the future. I cannot imagine how a professional would recommend blocking the main entrance of a home with 5 dogwoods, 2 maples and other shrubbery. When I look around the city, I can tell a Shreckhise creation when I see one. It usually consists of multiple weeping cherries, barberry, dwarf spruces, and golden mop cypress, all of which provide an array of colors, but the zig-zaggy patterns, positioning, and sheer number of items is mind-boggling. Save yourself money, time, and future stress. Please do not allow Shreckhise to landscape your yard the way that he did mine when the previous home owners hired him.

In the past I…read morehave had other landscaping companies come to my estate and do horticulture services, but nothing compares to Townsend. The amount of Horticulture knowledge within this company is like no other, and truly shows. I recommend this company over any of the others located in the Charlottesville area.

Our experience with JW Townsend was not a good one. After looking over our property, the manager,…read morewho can be quite charming, gave us an estimate of $10,650 just to do yard clean up, trimming and mulching. I asked him to itemize the estimate, and what he presented to me was quite general and not very professional. That should have been the indicator I needed to look elsewhere, but we were in a hurry, so we hired them. They ripped out two kind of perennials from our flower beds and mulched over the bare spots; they didn't trim the hedges they said they would; and they put a bunch of mulch down where we didn't want mulch. When we objected to paying the full amount for such shoddy work, they finally offered to discount the price by $200, but were generally belligerent about it. Please save yourself and find a different landscaper.

We wanted several retaining walls in our very sloped backyard, which falls into a small creek in…read moretown, near 5th Street Area. We interviewed three companies and Alex came in the middle with high quality stone, others were $$$ (thousands) higher or lower with either landscape timber (not long term) or old school cinder block. Very responsive, returned emails, worked with hubby for details. Started right away. The walls are BEAUTIFUL, both exactly where we wanted and mostly to the scale we want. Took a little over a week, guys (team of 3) came on time every day, even weekend to finish around rain. Big project! Only concern AND comment was the cleanup. Guys tried to put damaged front lawn back, did reseed and give us extra seed and straw. BUT feel if this is a lawn care company, preferred to have ruts in yard, from use of heavy equipment, leveled out, and help with more reseed as we had to finish the rest ourselves. So a bit disappointed in final cleanup. Quality of work is excellent and walls look just like we expected. (hubby will be adding to lower wall, himself, to get a bit more length as we had expected it to be taller overall, not just a bump in middle - a 16" wall should be at least 14" feet high everywhere not just 8" bump in middle.) Would definitely recommend them, Alex, just be firm and keep an eye on finishing and communicate that from beginning.

After over a year of using Acres Landscaping, I'm finding myself holding one of Crozet's best kept…read moresecrets, close to my grass. It's time to open a fresh cut review for them. First and foremost, you are here trying to find a landscaper who has incredible knowledge minus the cheese car sales-man Carl showing up at your house, trust me, I know, and it has been a feat. I've used multiple landscapers and I have found they always have a way to "upsell" me. I was exhausted over the pitches, disappointed in the lack of follow up, and questioning their pricing and tactics. Silly grasshoppers.. The grass is truly greener with Acres Landscaping,.. He is extremely detail-oriented, honest, and his follow up is impeccable. His prices are fair, he listens to your needs, and then actually delivers on them. Acres Landscaping is full service. You name it, he'll do it: mow and trim, blow your driveway and walkways (you can't forget about this detail), knock down the spider webs around your front door like a junior fireman with in the web of Spider-Man was chasing him (literally), remove and dispose of thorn bushes, and questionable vines. Mitch, who is patient, listens to the needs of what I see, and guides and gives me feedback on the things I have no idea about. For example; I was looking at the leaves still on my yard after winter ( asking for "spring clean up" ). Totally forgetting how we had prepped with mulch and trimming at the end of fall and feeling so reassured that a quick run over the yard will naturally compost the yard and look beautiful for us!! Next, I felt it was such a 'blade' of delight on how he never pressures me to change things and will guide over time to allow things to fit a budget. I have some bare grass spots, and he had listened to my concerns, gave me wonderful options in a range of price points and reassured me in landing the recommendations in an email for me. Finally, he has always anticipated the grassy needs, while placing the stacks of green aside. Last summer, due to it being so dry, he did not just "stick to the schedule". Instead, he communicated with me, let me know he didn't feel there was a need ( nothing was growing ), and kindly circled back in follow up in the weeks afterward. Could he have charged me? Yes. Could he have stuck to the schedule? Yes. Fact is, he didnt, not for one week, but for THREE. Mitch is the man with the plan. His timing, creativity and effort are beyond measure, each and every time! Never leaving anything less than perfection. He's meticulous in his detail of attending to all things landscaping. May your green blades of glory soar to new grassy fullness in their confidence of having Acres Landscaping by their side. Your grass will fly sky high and give your neighbors envy while they stand there in awe.
