Response from Yaardvark Landscape Management
"It was our pleasure helping you with your drainage issue. We know that stormwater can be tricky and difficult to diagnose the correct solution. When I heard that our competitor had quoted 50k for this remediation, I knew that there had to be a more efficient solution at a fraction (<1/5th) of the cost. It is fantastic to hear from you that after yesterday's storm you will no longer have to worry about water backing up into your garage. We really appreciate you taking the time to review us. Remember to keep the drainage pipe clear of debris/obstructions! Thanks, Nick Yaardvark Landscape"

Nick and his team were great to work with. Nick listened to my concerns regarding drainage and offered suggestions and recommendations. They solved my drainage issue and built a beautiful patio out of pavers. I highly recommend Yaardvark.

Can’t recommend Nick and his staff enough. Went above and beyond every step of the project. Followed up with me multiple times via phone and in person to make sure the grass and plants were all looking good. If you have a landscaping job, look no further!

It is a pleasure to write this review for Yaardvark. We recently had our outdoor lighting redesigned and upgraded at our home. From our initial consultation to the completion of our project we had nothing but excellent service. We appreciate Nick's attention to the details, knowledge and expertise. Our lighting is perfect, and our rating is 100!! It is rare to get great customer service and we highly recommend Nick and his team.

Nick and his team were quick and efficient. They showed up when they promised and completed the job within a week. Our house is on an incline, so Nick’s drainage expertise and routing the water appropriately was essential for the longevity of our house’s foundation. The new drainage system is working beautifully and the yard is in excellent shape now. They also properly graded the yard and installed fresh sod. Nick was kind enough as well to provide information on how to ensure the sod took and came back a month later to treat it free of charge.

"Thank you for taking the time to leave your thoughts. I'm glad to hear the french drain systems, grading and drainage pipes for your gutters are managing your stormwater as designed. The fescue sod took very nicely and should help with future erosion. We look forward to working with you again in the future. Happy Holidays, Nick."

Great! Nick is very professional from recommendations made to installation and the work done wax exactly what we wanted. We were very pleased with the entire process. They even put mulch around 2 of our trees as a courtesy. Clean up was immaculate. I would definitely recommend Nick Plummer at Yaardvark for any landscaping needs.

I’ve been using Nick Plummer with Yaardvark for several years for leaf management and shrub trimming. I’ve been wanting simple landscape lighting for the front of the house for a long time but was hesitant not only because of cost - but was afraid any company I called would try to talk me into more than I wanted. When I called Nick - he promptly came out to discuss. We came up with exactly what I had in mind and within a couple of weeks - they were installed and I love them!!! Great company you can count on!!

We’ve been using Nick with Yaardvark Landscape Management for leaf removal and shrub trimming for several years. They are always prompt and do a superb job. Nick even texted me to remind us of this years leaf removal - which I appreciated. Call them - they do a great job.

Nick and his crew did an excellent job on my side yard erosion issue. Out of the three bids I received for the work Nick from Yaardvark Landscape Mgmt. had the best plan and was the most knowledgeable. He went above and beyond in creating the perfect fix for my yard. I highly recommend Yaardvark Landscape Mgmt.

Nick and the Yaardvark teak were a pleasure to work with. They transformed our front yard from an afterthought to the focal point of the house. I worked with Nick to let him know what I wanted (including synthetic turf) and he created a beautiful design concept with mocks that allowed me to see what the final product would look like. Nick and his team not only took care of the removal of the old landscaping but also improved grading and drainage, installed lighting, and took their time crafting the right hardscape to support the design. Great team to work with. Friendly and attenteive. Highly recommend!

Waited for heavy rains before posting a review - their work did the trick, no problems at all. I have them coming to look at other jobs! Great folks to work with.

Nick helped us dream up our landscaping design. He worked to find just the right plants that fit our house and budget. His team nailed the installation for the landscaping and the lighting. They were professional, friendly, and answered all of our questions. Will absolutely use them for the next phase of our addition.

Yaardvark did a wonderful job revising the landscaping in my front yard. I wanted the beds completely redone and Nick, the owner, did a great job of making suggestions about what we should plant and where. Being new to Nashville, I was not knowledgeable about gardening here. He put me at ease with his suggestions about low maintenance plants that would make the yard pop with color. Their price was reasonable and the crew was friendly and professional. I will hire them again in the spring to redo the back yard.

As usual, I got multiple bids, in this case for this 150' Hillside French Drain. Nick of Yaardvark Landscape Management gave a professional assessment of the work, solid advice, and fair price. He his crew, with two trucks and trailers, were able to do the job earlier than we had thought. He work through sunset, I got a First-Class Hillside Drainage System that should last 50+ years, I highly recommend Yaardvark.

I've worked with Nick and Yaardvack for 6 years now. They've been thoroughly honest and transparent with me in every interaction. I recently had them do some landscaping for me and they replaced several dead evergreen trees in my backyard. They did a great job, made sure the site was cleaned up and everything was presentable. They also went above and beyond and adjusted some of my sprinklers for me to ensure the new trees were getting adequate coverage. Pricing for the work was fair and they followed through with support when I needed their expertise on proper plant care. Really appreciate doing business with an honest company like them and they've earned my business for the past six years and going forward.

This job went smoothly from start to finish. On his first visit, Nick walked with me through the problem drainage areas and described how he would correct the issues. We also discussed some tree and bush trimming. Nick followed up with a very detailed and competitive quote that described everything discussed during his visit. He stayed in touch with a starting date, weather dependent. When he found the ground to be a little too soggy for much of the work on day 1, he and his crew completed the tree and bush trimming which included hauling off all of the limbs plus other landscape debris that was piled in our yard. Day 2 completed all of the drainage work, including landscape cloth, seeding and straw. Nick was on-site for all of the work and followed up a few weeks later to see if everything was working as planned. He goes above and beyond what is expected.

I contacted Nick Plummer of Yaardvark Landscape Management on Angie's List during the first week of March, 2019. I was seeking to have drainage issues resolved on one side of the lawn and in a portion of the rear section of my yard. Water would pond for a week or so in a low area on the side of my lawn and for a day or two behind the house after heavy rains. Nick called me the next day saying he would get out the following week to see the issue and provide an estimate. He didn't call or come out that week but came on March 19th and provided an estimate online the next day. The job would involve grading,, seeding, developing swales and matting. I agreed to have him do the work and advised him he could pick up his requested 50% initial deposit in two or three days. From that point, weeks went by and excuses followed for not beginning work , namely being tied up on other jobs and twice vacationing with his family. He came out on April 17th and did the work himself that day. He was paid In full at that time with the understanding that he would come back and fix any issue with his work at no additional charge. Afterwards, due to the nature of the drainage work he did, I waited for several rains to fall (about three weeks) in order to determine the success of his work. I discovered that water was again continuing to stand in a small section of the backyard he had graded and texted him about it. I sent him a photo of the area as he requested and waited.. When he stopped by he marked the area with orange paint assuring me he would come back to fix the situation. As of today, May 27th, more than two weeks later, he has not returned or contacted me. Between the delays, lack of follow through and his at times verbally combative responses to me, I cannot say that the two months dealing with Nick has been a pleasant experience. As of today June 3rd, Nick returned and completed the work.
