St Paul River Rock Delivery

The project went well. Corey and Al were responsive to a few issues that came up during the work time and addressed them. The only issue that wasn't addressed is that there could have been more river rock delivered, because the end of the pond liner was showing in the front of the garage. Our project was done so late in the year that we really didn't have time to address this before it snowed. We had to buy more river rock in the spring to make it look better. When I asked Goodfellows if we could get more river rock through them, they said I could buy it myself at Bachman's. I didn't dock Goodfellows for this, but I would have been happier if they had gone out of their way to make sure we were satisfied with how the job looked this spring.

This is the second time I've used Red Eagle Landscape. It is owned by Jeff Hance and located in Delano. What can I say--Jeff does excellent work! The project took longer than expected because of the rainy conditions and having to work in mud. I think it took about six days when it would normally have taken about three. He is so responsible and rightfully takes pride in his work. He's a perfectionist. He offers suggestions if you want them and is willing to make changes to an original plan. Jeff handled this project by himself but the first project he did for me he had a helper. He's a hard worker and wants to make sure you are completely satisfied when he's finished. I certainly would hire him again if I have a landscape project in mind.

This is the second time I've used Dehn's Landscaping. The owner is very prompt in returning calls, providing estimates and getting the work scheduled and completed. Excellent service overall.

After getting 7 or 8 bids, I decided on Meadow Green Landscaping for two reasons: great price and a really good feeling about the owner, David Cripe. It proved to be a great decision! David and his team did a fantastic job. The landscaping, including a small retaining wall exceeded my expectations. The communication was great throughout, and when all was said and done, the price was exactly as David stated in his estimate. No surprises. David also recommended an irrigation company that he works with, Advanced Irrigation. They did an amazing job as well. David coordinated the whole thing, and I received one bill. I'm always really nervous and anxious about these things, but working with Meadow Green was a worry-free, great experience. I'll submit a separate review for Advanced Irrigation. The owner, Chris Swanson, and his team did an awesome job and they deserve more than a casual mention.

I called and set up an appointment with Nick to take a look at the job. Nick showed up as scheduled and gave an estimate for the rock work. He was hesitant about the timber stairway because I only wanted it repaired, not totally replaced, and he couldn't see what lay beneath the exposed timbers. We agreed on a time & materials basis for that part of the project. Of the 3 bids I got Nick was the only one willing to tackle the timber stairway; one wouldn't do it at all and the other insisted on complete replacement even though I did not want that. I respected the fact that Nick was honest about the repair and seemed to consternate on it because he was unable to give a fixed bid. They did a great job on the rock and Nick offerred to plant whatever we wanted for free or "almost free". Even said he'd pick the plants up if we wanted. Also, I wanted a combination of plastic and weedguard mesh to help with drainage, which Nick agreed to do for no extra charge. The other 2 bids I got did not want to do this because their crew wouldn't like having to mess with it. The timber steps turned out okay and the price was pretty close to what Nick had guesstimated. I'm very happy with the work and would not hesitate to recommend this company to others.

L&R did a wonderful job on our landscaping project. Their attention to detail was awesome. Once the project started, it took the less than 10 days to complete it. The work area was kept neat and tidy. They were perfectionists with respect to the paver patio, a circle design with a curved walkway. Many of the pavers had to be cut in order to get the perfect fit and look. The result was outstanding. Whenever there was an issue, they were quick to come up with a good solution. For instance, there was a concern that the installation of edging around an established tree would cause damage to the root system. Instead of cutting into the turf, L&R installed additional soil and sod around the tree so that the edging could be installed in the new grade without touching the tree's root system. Many sprinkler heads had to be moved as part of the project and now the sprinkler system works better than it did beforehand. The plant selections and locations exceeded our expectations. All in all, we were pleased and impressed with job done by L&R.

These guys were good. They were the second estimate I had and came in a helped me with the vision of the project and came up with much better ideas than I could have come up with. Their pricing was very fair for the work they did. The owner was there every day making sure the work was done right and timely. Definitely will be using them in the future.

Jason did a very good job. He is attentive to our need. Jason is a professional, having good knowledge in his field. He is friendly and prompt. I found him through Angie's list and I called him based on the reviews. Jason did a quality work.

It went very well from start to finish! They were punctual and professional to work with. The crew was also very considerate of my 3 and 5 year old children. They actually included them in the project, which was much appreciated! They were kid-friendly contractors! I continued to add scope to the design and they were able to fit it in my budget. I can?t recommend them highly enough!

PRICE WAS EXCELLENT! WHILE PINNING THEM DOWN ON A DATE WAS A LITTLE TRICKY, THEY DID A GREAT JOB AND IT ONLY TOOK THEM 4 HOURS. IN FACT 2 OTHER NEIGHBORS CALLED THEM TO COME DO THEIR ROCK WORK. I HAD ONE OTHER BID, NOT FROM THE LIST. (I CALLED EVERYONE ON THE LIST AND DEHN'S WAS THE ONLY ONE TO RETURN MY CALL WITH IN A WEEK). THIS OTHER BID WAS FOR $3,000 AND THEY WOULD NOT TAKE UP THE PLASTIC BUT JUST ADD HERBICIDE AND MORE ROCKS TO DEAL WITH THE WEEDS. NOW, I DID WAIT UNTIL THE END OF THE SEASON (OCTOBER) WHICH DID DRIVE THE PRICE DOWN, BUT EVEN SO I WAS ABLE TO USE THEIR 10% OFF COUPON WHICH REALLY BROUGHT DEHN'S PRICE TO $1,080.
