"I am beyond happy with the experience I had with CLC Landscape Design. They went above and beyond, transforming my yard into my own oasis. Eric came on site and brought all the expertise and plant advise that would fit best for my yard. Once the project started he communicated with me when his team would be arriving and the status of the project that day. Once we had everything planned out, he even came back to double check to see if all the plants looked good before they got planted! He was overall super helpful, very professional, and I am beyond satisfied with the results. Thank you Eric and CLC Landscape Design team for all your hard work. Really all I could say is just WOW! I look forward to working with your team again in the future!"

"Zero stars if it were possible. Harry M came to my home and quoted me 200 dollars and cash was the only payment option he would accept. He came that Saturday and did a horrible job. He used my mower and it’s not working properly now. He didn’t have a working weed wacker and asked for my personal one. He left so many areas undone and I he did report he would come back to finish the job. This never happened; he kept saying he had me scheduled but forgot to tell me. A crew was supposed to come two Saturdays ago and this never happened. He does not respond to text messages. Most importantly, he asked to come to my house to BBQ and to date me. I have text messages to prove this. Even after I declined, he didn’t not understand no after being told several times. There’s a review on another site that doesn’t remove negative feedback and he called that person cursing them out and verbally threatening them. If he does this to me, I will immediately press charges. I’m reporting this fraud anywhere I can until I get my money back from this fraud."
