"We had them redo a Frankenstein-esque back patio that came with the house, and added in a walkway to the side sidewalk and a new magnolia tree with a planter. The work took longer than either of us expected, but that is most likely due to their relatively small size. I don’t mind helping out small, local businesses, and these folks are certainly worthy. They did an excellent job and a reasonable price."

"They did a poor job. Within 3 months, plants started growing in between the asphalt. The company refuses to come fix it and is adamant it is done correctly against seal coating companies saying that it is poorly done. I was informed to seal coat the aspahlt within 3 months/in fall, and the driveway didnt last that long. He refuses to give me the terms and conditions to the "warranty" on the driveway despite several times asking. He only picks up responses to getting paid and accepting work. Also do not view the "estimate", it is a trick to get you to accept their work. Communication is difficult with this company unless its about giving them money. Would not recommend."

We offer only the best quality workmanship and professional courtesy. We specialize all phases of commercial and residential landscaping. We are committed quality work and outstanding results & are strongly involved in local community activities. We look forward to working with you!

"Juan was recommended to us by neighbors in an area Facebook group. He came out and gave a very reasonable quote. Our biggest issue was prickly weeds everywhere in our backyard, so much that our toddler couldn't safely play. In addition, we wanted overgrowth cleaned up and Juan suggested we add some mulching. We agreed. When trying to schedule, he tried changing the plan from a 1 time job to a 3 part job for 3x the cost. After a bit of back and forth, we went with the first estimate. When he finished it looked great. We watered every day, per hours instructions. A few days after, I checked under the mulch and found he didn't lay the garden fabric as was included in the contract. I contacted him and he brushed it off a bit and said it wasn't necessary. Eventually said he'd come back and redo the weed treatment as compensation for not doing the fabric, which we agreed to. He never came. No fewer than 3 times he said he'd come and didn't. Now he won't respond to any communication. "

Exterior Lighting questions, answered by experts

You should hire a licensed electrician who is insured to perform any electrical work on your home, including lighting installation. States have different requirements for licensing and certifying electricians, so use Angi’s state licensing tool to review local guidelines.

Here are a few questions to ask electricians before hiring:

  • How many years of electrical experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

  • Do you work with subcontractors?

  • Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • What is the timeline for completion?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • Can you provide at least three customer references?

In this category, homeowners provide materials. Some installers may offer advice on suitable options.

LED lights offer a range of benefits. In addition to lasting for a long time, LED lights are energy efficient and can put less demand on both your energy bill and the environment. They’re also made from durable materials and function in extreme conditions, which means they won’t easily break or shatter.

Costs depend on fixture type, wiring complexity, and additional features like timers or motion sensors.

The majority of potential burglars are amateurs looking to make a quick buck after breaking and entering. By installing motion-sensor lights, alarm systems, and security cameras, throughout the home, there’s a good chance you will deter crime on your property.

By submitting this question, I acknowledge and agree that Angi may publicly display my name, city, state, and question on the website for professionals and others to see.
