We used Island Creek Landscape 11 years ago when we built our home in Highgate (Union County) and they did a great job. When we built our new home at Lake Tillery, we used them again and as usual, they didn't disappoint. They put in a hardscape patio, raised beds, artificial turf, sod, mulch and graded for erosion and ran drain pipes. They also did a rain chain and drain for my wife! We also had irrigation done. I highly recommend them. Their prices are reasonable and the quality of work exceptional. Daniel is extremely knowledgable of plants, hardscape, water features, grading, mulching and planning. The crews were very respectful of the property and went above and beyond. Will post pics soon.

We are repeat customers and highly recommend Island Creek Landscape. Their first patio still looked perfect after 15 years with no settling or shifting. Now they've expanded it and added some decorative soldiered brick linings to fit with our new renovation and we love it even more.

The customer emailed us at 8:00 pm on the 23rd and we made contact with him by the end of the day on the 24th. We actually have an appointment set up to meet next week. The customer admitted he jumped the gun when he post the review less than 1 day after sending the email, and is in the process of having the review removed. Our goal is to return calls and emails asap. That is always done within 1 business day of the initial contact. We pride ourself on customer service and strive to make everyones exprience with Island Creek Landscape a positive one. Daniel Griffin President Island Creek Landscape

Description of Work: Daniels team came out and did a great job of cleaning up our flower beds and giving them a facelift. His suggestions on moving around and removing some plants and adding some bushes and a tree made everything look way better. For me it was a little expensive, but most of the time you get what you pay for. And this was one of those times. Everything looks great!

Description of Work: We are new to the area and used Angie's List to find a contractor for a brick patio installation. After several estimates we settled on Island Creek because of the positive ratings and trust we felt with Daniel. Daniel was prompt, professional, and very competitive in the estimate process. The job was completed on time and the installation team did a quality job with great attention to detail. The crew was always very professional - never heard foul language, worked very hard, and cleaned up each day. Highly recommend this company.

Description of Work: Daniel and team came out to install drainage, grade property, and install sod. Awesome work. So happy. Him and his team so respectful of your property they treat it as there own. Daniel suggested Zoysia grass over Bermuda and was he right. Its worth the extra money. Never knew I could have what looks like a carpet as grass.

Description of Work: We hired Island Creek to install a paver patio, knee wall, fire pit and screened in porch. Daniel was very responsive. Of the several companies that provided quotes, he was the only one to schedule a follow up visit to make sure he had quoted exactly what we wanted. He worked with us to provide alternatives to meet our budget, met us at the stone supplier to pick materials and was on site often during the three week project. he subcontracted the screened porch portion and his sub was as professional as he was. we could mot be happier.

Daniel responded in a timely fashion to my initial email inquiry. He arrived on time for our estimate appointment. He provided a written proposal/estimate within a few days, but explained he was fully booked for about 6 weeks. I thought he was worth waiting for, so asked him to put me on his schedule. At about 4.5 weeks he called on a Thursday and indicated he could get started on the following Monday. He and a helper arrived on time and worked steadily. When leaving the site for the day, they cleaned up behind themselves and left everything in order. He was patient with my perpetually inquisitive 4 year old neighbor. They finished the job the next day, leaving me with care instructions and a neat work site. This was following the Easter freeze, and Daniel thought a crape myrtle might be questionable. He said he would replace it if it did not leaf out properly. It didn't, and the replacement of superior quality was planted within a few days of my request. A++ service!!
Description of Work: Removal of about a dozen large, old overgrown shrubs and pampas grass from several planting beds; replant with new plants to provide low-maintenance year-round color/interest.

It went excellent. From the first time he came out to give us an estimate he was very prompt and thorough. He sent us the estimate within a day or two and even gave us a website where we can go and review the plants. We really had no idea what we wanted except that it had to be low maintanence but colorful at the same time. He did exactly that and it came out beautiful. Once he started planting he realized that he would have to change some things around do to the spacing and maybe exchange some plants his change turned out more beautiful than his original plan. He even reseeded our front lawn for us. His pricing might appear to be a little on the high side but WELL WORTH IT!!!

Daniel came out and was very prompt in getting me an estimate for the work. He arrived when he said he would with one assistant. He was at the job the full first day and only part of the time on the following day and a half. There were a few things missed, but overall I think he did a great job. I was not at home when he finished to do a walk through.

Daniel was prompt and on time for estimate. Offered very good advice and returned quote quickly. He came and completed work on time, he is driven to only deliver the highest quality work. The quality of plants and trees is very high and exactly the caliper that was discussed. Did a good job of cleaning up after work.
Description of Work: Removed old beds and planted trees, relocated shrubs, put down sod. This went so well I had him come back to remove a tree and extend gravel driveway and make a place to park our boat. He also reseeded, fertilized, and aerated yard.

He is very competent and knowledgeable about what he is doing. He showed up to do the work the day and time he said he would. He cleaned up well after the work was done. What he charges is very reasonable.
Description of Work: He removed trees and shrubs, then replanted other shrubs in their place. This last time he pruned trees and shrubs.

Excellent results. Worked full time on this project; not diverted by other projects. Very conscientious. Conformed well to landscape architecture plan. Made valuable suggestions relative to cost effective alternatives. Very good value for the cost. Communicated well the issues as they were discovered. Although my job was larger than what others might consider, I would recommend Island Creek for large or small jobs.
Description of Work: Company provided to me the following work on my new construction house: underground diversion of downspouts; paver installation; retaining walls installation; light grading; installation of gravel and stone walkways; spreading of mulch and wood chips; planting sod, grass, shrubs, trees. Coordinated very effectively with near simultaneous installation of underground irrigation system and installation of fence. Performed many different tasks and handled all quite well.

We couldn't have asked for better service. Daniel did the work himself, with one assistant, and the quality and appearance are excellent. Everything was done on schedule and with no unexpected costs. Several times, Daniel suggested better alternatives and with my approval changed the plans, resulting in something that I believe is very good in diverting the water runoff to prevent any future washout as we had before. I highly recommend considering him for your landscaping needs.
Description of Work: We had a narrow strip on one side of our house that was on a gentle slope, then steeply dropped at the end. We had severe erosion problems. Daniel installed steps and a retaining wall in the steep part, and long terraced steps on the gentler part. All steps and the wall were constructed with treated timbers - both 6X6 and 4X6, depending on the place and the application.
