(TL/DR: We are happy with the work Cory did, and I would recommend him for your landscaping needs.) The theme here is "all's well that ends well." Cory is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet, and he's very agreeable to work with. He and his crew work remarkably quickly, too, and the quality of work is very good. The job was not without its hiccups, though. Cory is not a proactive communicator, and that caused us some grief along the way. Without boring you with every detail, Cory and his crew got to work on Day 1, and by the end of Day 2, they had built an entire retaining wall on a line different from the one we'd talked about. He told me he had lain the foundation on Day 1 and, when he didn't hear from me, assumed it was correct and moved on to building the wall on Day 2. Problem is, he didn't inform me that I needed to review his Day 1 work (I never imagined that he would do the work differently than what we talked about when he met me for the initial estimate), or that he would interpret no word from me as acceptance of his work. The result was that he had to deconstruct the wall and then rebuild it along the correct line, which I'm sure was a lot of work, but he did it and did so cheerfully. This kerfuffle was unfortunately repeated, in essence, with the landscape stairs--building, followed by no word from him, followed by silence from me, followed by a discrepancy between what he built and what I wanted. This was especially frustrating, because, after the wall incident, he said he would take photos of the unfinished stairs and send them to me for approval before completing them. But, all's well that ends well: he and I met to discuss the issue, and then he and his crew redid the stairs to my satisfaction. To sum up, my experience with Cory is that he will make judgment calls, build, and hope it works out right rather than consulting you to see what you want and doing it that way (or telling you it can't be done that way for a particular reason). If you have a drawn plan that Cory can refer to, you may not have these issues, and perhaps I should have insisted on drawing him a plan when he didn't insist on having one before beginning work. Or, if you don't work during the day, you could oversee the work and give feedback as it's happening to prevent any issues from arising. But don't expect Cory to be proactive about communication. So, after all that, do I regret getting Cory to do the work? Absolutely not. He got it done quickly, did it well, did it for an excellent price, and went the extra mile to make sure we were happy. And we are. We are very excited about the way things turned out, and we can't wait to use the back yard space that Cory helped us create. I would absolutely recommend him.

Professional company with a reasonable cost and totally dependable. I have future projects including hardscapes which I will definitely use Blewett again! Thank you, Corey!

I made the appointment with Mr. Blewett several weeks in advance. On the (Monday) morning scheduled, he arrived on time and took care of winterizing the system. I plan to continue to use Blewett Lawn & Landscaping to maintain our system.

They did not return our call for a bid.

Blewett workers accomplished a lot in one day. Very happy with results. Daily rate paid. 2 very large trees removed And wooded area cleared and trimmed to canopy.

Grass is growing beautifully and did a great job. Corey showed up when he said he would and I would use him again in a heartbeat.

Cory responded quickly, discussed some options for the yard and provided a quote. He was exceptionally professional and kept me updated on every step. Outstanding job.

Cory did a professional job and cleaned up after the work.

Great, they were patient.

Blewett did the work quicker than I expected! And, even though the Angie's List deal had a mistake, Blewett honored the deal and did a great job. Now it's time to water, water and water. Glad Chattanooga's water comes from the Tennessee River so no rationing!

Everything went fine.

It went just fine. I had to call them instead of them contacting me. When I set up the appointment, he didn't come for the appointment. He finally called back a couple of weeks later and rescheduled. I talked to them about doing some other landscape work and they never returned my call again.
