My opinion:
They came in, and did the job as fast as they could.   The guys were here on wednesday night until the sky went dark.   They were obviously tired and wanted to get out of here as soon as they could.   The guys were overworked and at that point, were exhausted.
But coming back for another day, from faraway Annapolis would have cost them much too much.  

Running so late into the night, was only a vehicle to save cost.  And they were not the lowest bidder on the job.  I hired them because of their perceived reputation on Angies List.   This reputation was tossed out the window because of their intent to use another company.    I am willing to pay a higher price to get a good job done.    Sometimes this just doesn't happen.

Now the question is:  Would I use this company again.   Well, I would use DesignScapes again but I WILL NOT use the company from Annapolis again.  No WAY !!

Epilogue:  I got Designscapes to come back with a larger machine,  They couldn't get rid of the stump.  It was just too big and hadn't rotted underneath the soil.   Instead, they moved a very large rock in front of the stump and I drilled into it and added that chemical that rots stumps quickly.  In a couple years, it'll be gone.   So Designscapes tried to fix the error.

Rob and his son Ben did an excellent job on the landscaping. Rob provided us with the design and suggested the plants that we should use for our environment. I would not hesitate to recommend him to friends or relatives!

Rob and Ben were professional, easy to work with, and had to accommodate poor weather conditions during the project. They provided valuable input on hardscape issues, plant selection, and overall design. Once the plan was in place; they were onsite working hard every day and allowed us to make changes to plant positions and other matters without a contract change of scope. Their general approach to all tasks was to go beyond minimum requirements and to do things in such a manner that there won't be problems or redo's in the future. They made an effort to clean up every day although the weather (rain) sometimes hampered this effort. We are happy with the work and think the results look great.
