Everyone I worked with, from Andrea all the way down the chain to the workers themselves, were friendly, hard-working, courteous, professional, and an absolute pleasure to work with. The crew worked hard, were generally quiet and respectful of the neighborhood, cleaned up the work areas around the house each day, and took extra care to protect the areas when inclement weather threatened. Overall, I thought the installation went relatively smoothly and the hiccups were dealt with quickly. Andrea kept me informed of the progress and way ahead as we moved through the installation, kept me informed when she adjusted the plan to fit my property better, and was receptive to my observations/feedback during installation. She also provided follow-on maintenance hints/tips/recommendations to help guide me in maintaining everything.
I'll admit I experienced a bit of a sticker shock, but have never regretted my choice to use The Landscape Design Center--and would do so again if I had it all to do over again. I've always felt I received excellent value for my money. I highly recommend them.
"We are not clear as to why this client gave this rating, because it extremely false. We completed her job in 2013 and she was very happy upon completion with compliments to the men and our designer. We gave her a schedule date (it is in all of our contracts) and we stuck to it. Our designer went out on weekends and evenings in order to accommodate her schedule. She also called the designer multiple times on her cell phone after hours. Each time the designer answered. We also ended up doing follow up work on a few stones that had been stained by one of the client's trees dropping sap/debris. She was "sure" that it was our men that stained the stone, so we cleaned it, in good faith. A couple weeks later the stain came back and the client realized it was her tree, not our men, that had made the stain. The client mentioned that she was looking forward to working with us in 2014 and we were waiting for her to give us a call to proceed with the next phase. She needed to get finances in order. When we saw this review, we called the client to ask her why she gave it. She was very vague, and her comments to us on the phone did not match our contract and phone records. We think she may have us confused with another contractor. We honestly have no idea and are very dissapointed that this is a permanent review. We have contacted Angie's List to see about getting it removed."
We contracted with The Landscape Design Center to provide a consultation and subsequent installation of a full landscape lighting update. Although we already had landscape lighting in place for a number of years, as the trees and shrubs have grown we were feeling like the existing lighting did not accentuate the natural beauty of the property nor did it provide adequate path lighting on parts of the property.
Our first step was to meet with a Landscape Designer from the Landscape Design Center. She was very knowledgeable with great and creative ideas..... Exactly what we needed. She not only designed the project but also managed the project from start to finish. She also coordinated with our electrician to ensure proper coordination with out Lutron System. In all aspects, she was outstanding!
The installation itself was also outstanding. This was a complete makeover. So we expected the lawn and planting beds may be pretty torn up when the project was complete. We were surprised when that was not the case at all. All of the installation was done in a professional and clean manner. You can barely tell that we had any work done at all.
The end result is amazing. The new lighting brings out all the best in the property. We can't wait until warmer weather when we spend more time outdoors and really get to enjoy it even more.
"Unfortunately, this review is untrue. Here is the truth. The husband contracted for the clean up of the front, left side, and backyard. The morning our company started the job, the husband asked if we could clean up the right side yard. Our designer told him, that if we had enough time we would do the extra work, but that it was not included in the contract. The contracted work took the entire day, and unfortunately there was no time to do any extra work. The husband was notified of this. The wife, who did not contract for the work, called the office, irrationally angry, and was verbally abusive to the project manager and owner. She demanded that we do the added work (clean up the right side yard) at no charge. We explained to her that she was not charged for it, and we did not have enough time to do any additional work that day. We told her that we would gladly come back, at a discounted labor rate, and clean up the right side yard. She would not accept this and continued to argue. In good faith, we went back and cleaned up the side yard, at no charge. We then let the wife know, that because of her belittling and irrational behavior, we could no longer work with her. It was an unfortunate situation but we still believe we acted appropriately."
"This comment is malicious and untrue. Many variables existed with this job and many changes were made. Much assistance was given without charge. Client voiced that they were satisfied, and continued to call for work after this work was completed. Our follow up has been punctual and professional. Unforetunately, this comment has been 'posted' and cannot be removed. So we welcome any questions/concerns about the project. We pride ourselves on our work and service. Please see our website for more information and other testimonials. www.thelandscapedesigncenter.com. Thank you for your time."
