Green Expectations Landscaping Co Inc

Green Expectations met our expectations and beyond! They were so very helpful and efficient from planning our project, installation, and replacement when a few plantings didn’t survive winter. I would highly recommend you check them out. I am confident your expectations will be met as well! Oh and did I mention reasonably priced too? This business is the real deal and Tom is the BEST!!

Excellent Beautiful plant suggestions and excellent crew!

Tom and his crew always do an excellent job! We have been using Green Expectations for decades. Best yard on the block thanks to them!

The team at Green Expectations delivers beautiful results every time. They put my visions into reality. The entire team is friendly and easy to work with, and projects happen on time.

He was late getting back to me and I did hire someone else. However, I did love his plan and felt a lot of effort went into it.

Everything looks awesome. Crew did a great job. Price was great too. I will definitely hire again.

End result of the work product is good. However, the entire process was unsatisfactory. Project was overdue by months and not due to weather delays but lack of hardscape crews. Final invoice was over the original budget by 10% percent of initial quote. Items were added without prior approval which came across as an up-sell or something we needed for the project but they forgot to include in the original quote. To their credit they did not charge for some of the small plants. Higher priced items we attempted to negotiate price but some we were stuck paying retail for. Improved communication in advance would have resolved this prior to work being done. I'd recommend the crew member who essentially did all the hardscape on his own with little help. End work product was great in this regard. Project manager left much to be desired when it came to communication. Possibly another PM would result in a different experience.

Better than expected

It went awesome. I loved everything they did. The weather caused them a delay which was out of their control. But they got started and moved ahead. They did an excellent job. They showed up on time and were courteous and professional.

I would use them in the future.

The work went very well. The team did a phenomenal job reconstructing the retaining wall, grading the area, and installing the drain and drain lines. Their work successfully removed standing water away from our home. Mother nature has strongly tested their work three times since the job was finished. It worked exactly as designed. Once the new grass grows in over the drain line area, you'll never know that any work was performed. We're so satisfied we have hired them to work on another drainage issue on a different part of our property.

From the very beginning Tom and his crew were professional, punctual, creative and available. We have a very challenging lot from a drainage standpoint, however green expectations used their extensive knowledge to handle all of our water problems. Additionally, the landscaping and hardscaping was second to none! Tom helped us choose the right pavers, trees, shrubs and flowers to make everything look amazing! That combined with the lighting in the seating wall and throughout the landscaping has added a significant amount of value to our home. Several of our neighbors have come down to get their information due to the work looking so good. I would recommend Tom and Green Expectations 10 out of 10 times without any hesitation.

I paid, but have not received any call, contact or communication to schedule or discuss the design. I have since found another Design source on Angie who called me next day. How do I recover the money paid for the service not provided?

I am very dissatisfied with Green Expectations Landscaping Company and this has been building up for quite a long time! I had this retaining wall placed after I returned home from living in Arizona and I am tired of hearing from other professionals in similar businesses "my wall is bowing out" on BOTH sides of my stairs! I have known this! Green Expectations came out and added back fill to behind the wall as my lawn had sunk down shortly after the work was completed. I contacted Green Expectations regarding the wall bowing out and needed repairing as well as needing more back fill. My calls were initially returned by Larry stating he would come out and then he did not return any of my calls any longer after I complained once again years ago. Other companies in similar to Green Expectations stated the retaining wall was not anchored in and this was the reason it has leaned out! I hope others see this post and will think twice before choosing Green Expectations for their landscaping work in the KC area!!!!

The company scheduled an appointment to review and price the job right away. Although I had some thoughts on what I would like to have done, they offered some excellent suggestions as well. Unfortunately, all the rain at the end of April and into the first of May delayed the work for some time. The work crew was courteous and always cleaned up after themselves. In the process of completing the work, a couple of extras were needed, but the company discussed this with me prior to moving forward. Part of the work on the workorder was not completed, but these were optional items that had been suggested by the company and I really didn't care if they were done or not. The company adjusted my final billing to remove the cost of those items. I also questioned a couple of more items on the final billing. I paid the final billing minus those two items and the company promised to send someone out to inspect the job concerning those two items. Unfortunately, I was out of town when the inspection was supposed to take place. I have not heard from the company one way or another regarding the disputed amount, but I also know there was a personal situation that arose for the company representative I was working with that may delay final disposition of the billing. It is unfortunate that the company does not appear to have "back up" in place to cover for another employee.

What a fantastic job you all did!  Your guys are quick and very efficient.  When the rock was dumped in the drive some, of course, spilled onto the grass. The guys used shovels and rakes and there is no evidence of any rock anywhere in the grass when they completed their work. Your suggestions on the landscaping project were spot on.  I am very impressed with the consideration and professionalism of everyone involved in our landscaping project.  The project certainly made a big difference in the looks of the yard!

 

Thanks again for a job well done!
