The job was scheduled to begin on Tuesday June 3rd. Not only did no one show up to start the work on Tuesday, but there was no notice whatsoever as to why the delay. The next day, Wednesday June 4th, was a gorgeous day, yet no one showed up that
day either.
Finally, Thursday afternoon, June 5th, the job was started and the contractor communicated that the work would continue on Friday June 6th. On Friday June 6th, no one showed up to complete the work and no one called or communicated via email to explain why. In the meantime, newly planted azaleas that were already in place before the job began had been dug up and their holes were left completely uncovered for the next several days, with no explanation.
The following week, after posting a note on Landscape II's Facebook page indicating that that we were not at all happy with their lack of professionalism up to that point, the work resumed again and most of the job was completed. Much of what was done was done well, yet, unfortunately, bad dirt had been put down between the deck stairs and the stone foundation that was built, rather than a healthier soil. This went against our instructions given at the outset, as the wrong kind of dirt can produce less than desirable results, to say the least--and this is exactly what happened. Also, they neglected to put down grass seed in that area after putting down this inferior dirt and we actually had to call a week later to let them know that they had forgotten to do this.
Not surprisingly, most of what grew over the next several weeks and beyond, between the deck stairs and the stone foundation, were many ugly weeds and very little healthy grass. The weeds have continued to spread and they look awful.
Our backyard has always been very lush and well maintained, with few if any weeds, so this is the first time that so many weeds have grown within such a short space of time in an area that is normally free of them. The contractor has said that they will work on eliminating the weeds, but from what I can tell this has yet to be done. To make matters worse, the dogwood tree that was planted on the side of the house does not appear to be doing very well despite an ample amount of water and sunshine.
Although much of the work completed for this landscaping project was done satisfactorily, there were numerous instances of blatant unprofessionalism with regard to the constant lack of communication on the part of the contractor and regarding areas of the property that were essentially ignored and where the use of cheaper, inferior products produced highly unattractive results.
Based on this experience, I cannot recommend Landscape II for elaborate landscaping projects.

Did it all in two days.  Removers and installers were friendly and kept us informed step-by-step.  Tidied up when they were done.  Our two cats were entertained as they watched the process through the windows.

The new patio is the talk of the neighborhood.  Aaron Village is a townhouse complex of about 50 units.  Many of the unit owners dropped by to ask questions during the installation and many more have stopped us in our neighborhood walks to ask about Landscape II and our satisfaction with them.

Great job by Landscape II and, best of all, we have a beautiful low-maintenance patio.

The crew was great,,worked really quickly, but carefully. Damien made sure the new walkway was slanted away from the house. Lara helped us to place the plants we bought. It looks fantastic! So much better than it did before. I am proud to show off my house now!

Though the work was done in stages they made everything work seamlessly with impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail. The design aspect was very creative and wonderfully integrated with the architecture of the home and ultimately gave a result that was more beautiful then we could have imagined at the outset. The price was very fair and in excellent agreement with estimates.

Overall the work result is beautiful but we have not received an itemized bill, only a request for an additional $10,000.00. Once this company starts your work they are very fast, but it may take a while to get on their schedule. We find them best suited to big special projects that you are willing to pay and wait for. Their creative designs are great.
