We had an outstanding experience with Jim Hall and his crew at Down to Earth Landscaping. Our project included replacing the six-foot wooden fence around our backyard, adding an additional gate, installing a rock border within the rear fence line and around a tree, installing river rock and greenery, rocking-in an area along one side of our house (to control drainage and remedy erosion issues), adding two flagstone extensions to our existing patio, adding rock borders around a front shrub bed and tree, and adding a flagstone walkway along the length of our driveway. From the beginning, we found Jim personable, attentive, and flexible. Going in we only had a rough idea of what we wanted to do in terms of overall design, and we had no consensus about plant selections. At our initial meeting, Jim patiently listened and offered some suggestions. He returned a few days later with a couple of design alternatives mapped out on paper. He gave us options to choose from for the plant selections and he helped us weigh the pros and cons of different choices. He was patient answering questions and he was clearly focused on making sure we would be satisfied with the results. Jim has a professional and focused team who worked diligently for the nine days they were onsite. The overall quality of the finished work is excellent. The fence is well-constructed. It is completely put together with screws (zero nails) and the materials are excellent quality. Jim did an outstanding job matching the color of the rock and stone selections with the stonework on our house, and we are pleased with his recommendations on the plant selections. The overall aesthetic of the entire job is outstanding. We are exceptionally pleased with the results.
