I felt the price was quite high, but foolishly didn't get other bids. Shame on me. The work was satisfactory, although we have run-off problems and some dead shrubs which we don't expect they will ever fix. Because I had used them, I had them bid on a job putting additional up/down lights in a few more tree clusters around the house, as well as a refresh on the mulch. The Rep (who was my Rep on the original job) came out, took about 20 minutes to hear the details and walk around, and then handed me a bid for $5,400 (NOT including tax). This included 7 up lights, 3 down lights (total of 10 lights) and delivery and spreading of 8 cubic yards of cedar mulch in our flower beds. I was somewhat shocked at the price and how quickly he arrived at the number, so I had 2 other reputable landscape companies in our area come out. After coming out, it took them several days to prepare the bid. Obviously Acacia was the highest bidder by far. The next highest (Landscaper "B") quoted 6 up lights, 8 down lights, and 1 up light for a future flagpole (15 lights) for $2,100. Acacia was almost 88% higher for 5 less lights (and I confirmed they were same low wattage/LED brass lights installed previously). Acacia quoted $1,397.50 for 8 yards spread of cedar mulch where "B" quoted 8 to 12 yards of black dyed mulch (higher quality), delivered and spread for $1,216.00. I didn't choose "B" as the 3rd quote was even lower for the same job with 15 lights and some river rock and diverts to help with the runoff issue Acacia never addressed. I called Acacia several days ago to speak with the Office Manager and shared my frustration. I was pointed, but never raised my voice or was rude other than to tell her how embarrassed and disappointed I was to have been fooled initially. I have not heard back from them with an explanation of how their estimate can be so wildly off of what other landscapers would bid the job for. I did not share Acacia's bid with them at any time, although I did mention to "B" after they presented their bid that it was much lower than another company I had bid the work. He asked who, I said "Acacia", he smirked and said, "yeah, they run pretty high". I don't know about the other jobs they bid, but I felt like I had "sucker" printed on my forehead.

Provider's words to my wife were and quot; IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE JOB WE DO...YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PAYand quot;
WOW.
WHAT A LIAR! ! !
Provider used a RIDING MOWER on my very small front yard, scalped it down to dirt in more than one place, took out one of my sprinkler heads and mulched most of the leaves instead of raking and bagging them .
In the back yard, one of the workers used a blower to gather the leaves and then opened up my back gate and blew them out into the alley. When challenged and asked why he did that ...his response was a shrug a and quot; I DUNNO.and quot;
My wife had moved her car into the middle of our driveway to give the workers room to maneuver and work.
Somehow the worker(s) managed to put a dent in the left rear door of her vehicle....which they deny along with scalping the yard and taking out the sprinkler head.
When contacted, the owner called my wife a liar about the blowing leaves into the alley and said we waited too long to say anything about the yard and vehicle damage. We did not say anything for 3 week as we had a whole lot of other and quot;thingsand quot; going on in our lives and did not take time to look over everything closely...our fault. BUT when some one damages something ... that person or persons should have the INTEGRITY and HONESTY to own up to what they did.
IT SHOULD BE ADDED THAT THE and quot;WORKERSand quot; HAD TO BE TOLD REPEATEDLY TO REDO THEIR WORK.
Speaking of HONESTY and INTEGRITY...this provider advertises that he is a member of and quot;Professional Landcare Networkand quot; and that he is a Certified Turfgrass Professional.
THIS PROVIDER IS NONE OF THESE... ACCORDING TO and quot;PLANETand quot; PROFESSIONAL LANDCARE NETWORK...Randolph's Lawn and Landscape Management IS NOT A REGISTERED MEMBER OF PLANET NOR DOES HE HAVE ANY TURFGRASS PROFESSIONAL CREDENTIALS ON FILE WITH THEM.
HIS HAS THESE FALSE ADVERTISEMENTS ON BOTH HIS BUSINESS CARDS AND ON 2 ADS IN THE CURRENT YP BOOK.
THE OWNER AND HIS SON HAVE BULLYING ATTITUDES AND ACT AS IF THEY ARE GOD'S GIFT TO LAWN CARE..
YESTERDAY, MAY 7, 2014, THIS PROVIDER HAD THE AUDACITY AND IDOICY TO SHOW UP AT MY DOOR AFTER WE TOLD HIM WE WOULD NOT BE USING HIS SERVICES IN THE FUTURE AND WE WOULD NOT BE PAYING HIM SINCE HE DID NOT RENDER THE SERVICES WE VERBALLY AGREED UPON. THERE IS NOT NOR WAS THERE EVER A WRITTEN CONTRACT WITH THIS PROVIDER, ONLY A VERBAL AGREEMENT AND THE OWNERS and quot;WORDand quot; ....WHICH IS NOT WORTH ANYTHING AT ALL.
NEEDLESS TO SAY, I THREW THEM OFF MY PROPERTY. THE SON ATTEMPTED TO GET IN MY FACE AND WHEN I DIALLED 911 THEY LEFT WITH A LONG STRING OF UNPRINTABLE WORDS COMING FROM THEIR MOUTHS.
I left a message with their office and told the owner in a separate short phone conversation to Never Again send a crew to my residence and for him to cease and desist with his BULLYING attitude and that he needed to quit his false advertising.
MY ADVICE TO ALL IN THE SCHERTZ, CIBOLO, UNIVERSAL CITY TEXAS AND SURROUNDING AREAS IS TO NEVER TRUST OR USE THIS SERVICE PROVIDER.
I USE THE WORDSand quot;WORKERand quot; AND and quot; SERVICE PROVIDERand quot; IN THE LOOSEST WAY POSSIBLE.
I hired Boerjan’s Landscape & Design to complete six landscaping projects on May 14 2019. Of the six only one was done to my satisfaction. I asked for bark mulch for my flowerbed and after putting in about half of the mulch he tells me was unable to obtain bark and used the shredded mulch. If...

"We hired South Eden to help us with our backyard landscaping from planning to completion. I highly recommend Jaz and team for ANY landscaping plan. As we are not new to landscaping design, I had very specific "wants" and "don't wants" in our project. They were VERY accomodating and reworked the plan design several times before starting the project and during the project. They communicated during every step of the way to assure we were more than happy with the results. As we wanted a design with zero grass, South Eden was extremely knowledgeable in hardscaping options, plant selection, and plant location to make the design perfect for our layout. The team that came to complete the landscaping were on time and very pleasant to work with. My specific ratings are below as a single "5 STAR" doesn't do them justice: 1. Communication and Followup: 5 STAR (most landscaping companies didn't even bother to call us back 2. Landscape planning and design: 5 STAR 3. Pricing: 5 STAR (estimate was 60% of the other landscaping companies) 4. Quality of work and product: 5 STAR I look forward to working with South Eden again when we redo our front landscaping this spring"

FAQs for mulch and topsoil service projects in Live Oak, TX
Topsoil costs from $12 to $55 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. For example, screened black dirt will cost about $15 per cubic yard. Loam (soil composed of sand, silt, and clay) costs about $17 per cubic yard. Standard screened topsoil costs about $20 per cubic yard. The type of topsoil you need depends on your landscaping plans.
Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. On the inexpensive end, red and black mulch are about $35 to $40 per cubic yard, and are typically made from recycled waste wood like shredded old pallets or deck material. Cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch cost anywhere from $100 to $120 per cubic yard. A pro can help you determine the type of mulch most suitable for your landscaping needs.
Topsoil should go down first. If the topsoil is next to your house, make sure the grade slopes away from the house to keep water from pooling against your foundation and possibly leaking into your basement or crawl space. Don’t cover your decorative landscape mulch with topsoil as that defeats the purpose of laying down the mulch. If you’re trying to create a certain soil composition to improve plant growth, you’ll likely want compost mixed into the topsoil instead of mulch. Over time, any decorative wood mulch will simply decompose under the topsoil.
No, mulch itself does not necessarily attract termites even though it’s usually made of shredded wood. Some types of mulch like cedar or cypress resist termites because they’re toxic or unappetizing to the wood munchers. However, when the mulch is deep enough, say three inches or more, it creates a perfect habitat for insects of all kinds to build nests.
Although it’s not required to lay anything under mulch, it can help to put landscape fabric or plastic weed barrier down and lay mulch on top. The barrier helps keep weeds from growing up through your mulch. It also helps keep rodents and insects from burrowing into the ground underneath.
