The WOW Factor We…read moremet with several landscape companies over the course of about 4 months (most of which we found on Yelp). Either they never got back to us, wanted to sell us a big, expensive "plan," or had never heard of our neighborhood, blah blah blah. For this reason, I kept branching out beyond our area on various sites until I found myself searching in Athens. That's how we found Patrick and City Garden Company. We could tell right away he knew what we wanted, knew how to construct it, and had great ideas. He listened to our vision, which was fairly simple--a large, gravel patio, stepping stones, and sod. He came up with the idea of using dry-stacked stone as the border, and we couldn't be happier. I asked him if it would fall over eventually, and he said "not if I build it." I believe it, too--it's classy, sturdy, and coordinates with our stepping stones and the stone on the front of our house. He and his team were very precise, and measured everything out so that it's even, with nice clean lines. A very professional job. We really do love it, and stand in the window and stare at it because our yard is transformed. We are thrilled we found this company! They actually follow up, call you back, answer your emails, etc., which is kind of a rarity in the home improvement businesses, I'm afraid. I can't wait to recommend them to friends. They work all over the place, including Decatur, Athens, Lake Hartwell, etc. See profile pic for photo of the completed job.

I was skeptical about using Mark (I had free and paid designs from landscape companies), but am…read moreglad I had him draw up my backyard landscape plan. I will likely use him for my front yard as well. Mark asks the right probing questions to understand the reason behind my vision before suggesting a design. I am detailed oriented and had a specific vision of what I wanted. His questions helped me recognize my wife and I had conflicting ideas. He then helped come up with a balanced design that met both our visions. We will tweak his plans a bit, but now the design elements have purpose behind them instead of just adding a bunch of trees and shrubs that we "think" will look nice. If you're taking on a landscape project, I would recommend starting with Mark and then working with landscapers to implement. His fee is worth it in comparison to a landscape implementation cost to ensure you start with the right plan.

Ultimately a decent outcome with a nice plan to consider for our front yard face-lift, but could…read moreprobably have received similar advice from a knowledgeable person at a good local nursery. Biggest issue with the session was Mark's constant reference to cost and condecending tone when providing 'advice' about working with a HOA, which suggested he did not assume we could afford to remodel our home. This caused me to suspect he is not accustomed to working with people of color, but in the spirit of experiencing a teachable moment, if someone agrees to pay you over $200 above your typical fee to get you to travel outside of your normal geographic range of services to draw up a plan for a renewed front yard, it is probably safe to assume they understand the concept of a HOA and can afford to buy the desired plants and hire landscapers.
