The crew started and went to work and drove through the jungle and began the I clear it out. I'm not use to this much vegetation so it was astonishing how much they did each day. They spent 3 days working painstakingly in the sun, and did not stop until the job was done. It is the best the yard has looked since I was a kid. The owner deserves a beat on Virginia Beach award I mean it. I don't think there is a job too small or too big for them to take care of. So even if you speak to him and don't use them, I promise you will have an amazing experience talking to a man with a ton of integrity, respect, and great morals. He gave me the best price for this job, and I'm externally grateful for that. Their integrity carries profound wisdom. In a world where circumstances change and challenges abound, it is the steadfastness of character that forges lasting connections and enduring accomplishments. Integrity elevates every endeavor, large or small, and ensures that success is achieved with honor. To seek out and work alongside those with integrity is to choose trust, respect, and shared purpose. It is, ultimately, to choose the best in ourselves--and to build something of substance, together.

I want to save others the headache, the disrespect from the owner Brandon and the heartache of being ripped off the way we were. To begin, Brandon was recommended to us by our pool company. We met with Brandon once and shared our ideas. His quote was THOUSANDS above other companies but he assured us that we wanted his expertise. We were doing a FULL yard makeover. Every inch of our yard was to be ripped out, graded properly and then redesigned. The reality was that there was no design "process". I told him my thoughts and he said ok. When I asked for a sketch or any other input, he told me that he can do what I want but he doesn't provide images. Throughout the pool build, our hardscape design changed drastically which meant we needed less river rock, less grass and less design. We went back and forth with Brandon over text trying to get an updated "design" and estimate. His continuous response was that we would revisit the design and quote once the hardscape was fully complete since it was still under construction. We told Brandon on multiple occasions that we did not want any work to begin until we went through the plans with him again due to the extent of pavers we decided to use and our desire to refine the budget. Brandon texted multiple times asking if the pavers were done and I always replied with "we need to go over the plans again because so much has changed". The pavers were to be finished on Friday and I let Brandon know. While outside on Friday I see some stranger walking my yard taking pictures. I introduce myself as the homeowner and just says ok. When questioned he finally let me know that he was with beachscapes and he was taking pictures for his boss. thinking this was odd, I texted Brandon and reminded him again that we needed to walk the property together. He assures me that we will walk around on Monday morning. I'm home all morning Monday. At around 10:30/11am, I hear what sounds to be machinery in my front yard. I walk out my door to find Brandon Tilling up my entire front yard. When I reminded him that we needed to go over the project and that I wasn't sure sodding the front yard was in the budget anymore his response was "whoopsies". At this point, I now had to sod the front yard. Brandon worked about 3-4 hours everyday with one other worker. I left my garage open and kept my refrigerator stocked with water, sparkling water and Gatorade for which him and his crew of 1 took FULL advantage. Prior to laying sad, I asked Brandon if he was gonna put down some nutrient rich soil to ensure that the sod was laid on the proper soil. He assured me that when he tilled up the yard that my soil was in great condition and it wasn't necessary to add anymore, although he did quote me in price for it. We had Brandon set our irrigation to his recommended settings. We also had new irrigation put in before the side was laid, which was all flagged out. After a few days, our sod was dying, and we began to walk around and realize that the sod had been laid on top of our irrigation sprinklers. We had the irrigation company out 4 days later and the owner of the company found another 4 sprinkler heads that were covered including the white marker flag. When we asked Brandon he said that he checked himself and essentially said we were lying. Within 1 week, parts of our grass were completely dead. We called ALM to come out and they said that we had a fungus and that the soil that the side was laid on was not in great condition. They believe that he laid the sod on clay because the water was just running off the "soil" and down the grade of our yard. He also did a soil test to confirm. Brandon assured us that we needed to water for 30 minutes twice a day and he set the irrigation himself. This gave our brand new sod a fungus. After not hearing from Brandon we reached out to which he texted and said "you should have listened to me in the first place but instead your wife demanded we plant fescue". Completely unprofessional. Now to the "flower beds". The previous owner had laid volcano rock in all of the flower beds, which we asked Brandon to remove. One day on my way out I noticed Brandon just spreading the rock throughout the flower beds and asked him to remove it all instead of just spreading it around. He replied "what does it matter I'm going to put mulch over it anyway". I told him that I wanted it removed as much as possible. Within days of completion, it was clear that he did not remove the rock and that he only laid about a half inch of mulch over top of it. There is so much more to say but yelp has a word limit....

A 5 star experience for a recent Mother's Day arrangement of flowers…read more There is no day like Mother's Day and making it special for Mom. So the idea of a permanent planted arrangement seemed like something perfect for the patio. McDonald's was contacted over the phone a week + out before Mother's Day. I worked with Patrice who emailed different ideas they could do from pots to plants etc. He was so passionate about his trade and left me even more excited that he alone would be the point. Ultimately hydrangeas was chosen as the plant with sweet potatoes. They had many pots to choose from, but a more neutral with a butterfly seemed perfect. The cost was $97. Patrice assured that the plant would be watered and ready for pick up days before Mother's Day. On Saturday I went to McDonald's and after locating Patrice he rolled the plant out. I must say I was overwhelmed with the size. It was huge and gorgeous! Patrice did a video of care instructions as he took ownership of seeing everything through. He also at no charge through in a ceramic tray to hep with transport, but also for any leakage of water with a weep hole at the bottom. The delivery was marvelous and enjoyed by Mom. I cannot say enough positive about this experience. Other staff assisted me and were helpful and enthusiastic about their job. You just don't see this in other big box places ole Lowes and Home Depot. McDonald's is a one stop locally owned since 1947 garden center.

Originally, I was extremely optimistic as he was knowledgeable. He pushed back on a few of the items my wife and I wanted completed but, I took his word as the subject matter expert. First day, his team was a no show (no phone call or email notifying us). Second day, his team showed (without notice) and did the bare minimum of what he quoted leaving some plants in the front and back of our house. With that, his team only did a portion of the front and the back. We had to call and ask what the issue was. He commented that he is short personnel and would be back to complete the following day. He kept his word and finished; again, it looked like the work of a novice gardener. My wife asked why he didn't keep his promise of replanting and why it looked like it was poorly done. He replied with, "are we done here." That is not the way to treat a customer when running a business. Not being a Karen, just want others to avoid going through the same experience.
