I contacted several companies about mowing my lawn. My husband and I were looking for a regular lawn maintenance schedule, so we asked if they could do a one-time session so that we could gauge how we felt about the services. Sexton got back to us the quickest and I was glad to hear from them because I often saw their truck pulled up in front of houses in the neighborhood, so I thought they must be pretty popular! They said the one-time session was no issue, but then did not follow-up with me about the date they would be on our property, despite my asking for one. They showed up later that week and were very polite, notifying me that they would be on the property. They left shortly thereafter, so I went out to inspect the job. They had only mowed when I had asked for the full maintenance session. I called the company and they were responsive to my needs, saying they would send the gentlemen back out to finish the job at the end of the day. Okay, no big deal, just a miscommunication. They showed up at the end of the day, told me they were going to hurry to finish because it looked like rain was threatening. I see them leave, go back out to inspect, and notice that only a few weeds were pulled from my beds, and the long spiky vine that was growing all over the front yard bed was just shoved to the interior of my bushes! A few areas were not appropriately trimmed. Overall, the mowing looked nice, as did the edging, but combined with several overlooked areas and my still very weedy beds, I wasn't satisfied with the service. To be fair, I know a lot of the yards in my neighborhood are done by Sexton and they look very nice! Maybe this was just a one-time poor job on their parts.

We spent all this money on getting our yard done, then everything died and washed away. We noticed after they finished that the plants were barely buried into the ground. It was very disappointing. It was absolutely gorgeous when they first finished, but it didn't last long at all.
Description of Work: They came to redo our entire front yard.

We have used Sexton services for years now (since 2011). We have seen them grow as a company and with their services. They have always provided very good response to special requests, like changes in scheduled appointments, etc.

We had just purchased a new home and the front yard was in very poor shape. We contacted Sid Sexton and one other landscape contractor. Sid arrived promptly for initial meeting, and discussed our needs and wants. He replied promptly with firm quotation, and made several revisions as requested. They worked to fit us in their busy schedule, and met our requested completion date. The crew was on time, very polite and professional. They cleaned up each day. Sexton was slightly higher than the other company, but provided better sod, and worked with us to provide the type of lawn we wanted. Zoysia is a new turf grass for me, but I am pleased with the selection and it wintered very well. We are using Sextons lawn maintenance service for fertilization and weed control.
Description of Work: Level the area (10' x 10') for the new shed. Remove shrubs along the Left / North side of the home from the corner of the garage to the back porch. Spray and removal of existing turf and weeds along the front Right & Left side of the home. Right of the driveway to the fence and Left of the driveway to the corner of the house. Prep for new sod planting. Organic Fertilizer - Milorganite fertilizer, Lime, Organic Compost, 'El Toro' Zoysia Sod, A shade tolerant Zoysia. Better Curb Appeal and will address your erosion concerns. Landscape Installation of new sod. New plantings in front of porch

From the very beginning I could tell we made the right choice. During the planning and design phase, Sid was very punctual and delivered everything he promised in a very professional and confident manner. We had to make very few changes to his first design only because he had listened to everything we said we wanted and built the design correctly right out of the gate. His crew was here every single day and if for any reason left early, checked in with us on their plans to return. When they finished, it was as if no one had ever been there. Not one piece of trash or any sign that an entire crew had been here for over two weeks. We plan to bring them back to work some much needed magic to the backyard as well. I highly recommend this company for their professionalism and attention to detail.
Description of Work: Sid and his crew completed a much needed makeover of my front yard. They completely transformed it all including the front side yard.

Mow, fertilize, pull weeds and remove limbs/leaves. They are about 85% to the good. We constantly have to go behind them and tell them things they have not done.

As above.
Description of Work: Because I moved before the estimated work could be performed, the representatives, design staff and office personnel were extremely helpful, talented with their proposed design, and pleasant even though I was unable to follow through.Very good experience.

After approving the estimate we were given by Sexton Landscaping, a date was given to start the work. The weather prevented it from starting on that day so it was moved to a week later. Once the landscaping began, the employee spent an entire day working on trimming, relocating and planting. He did an excellent job and returned 2 days later to finish with the plants that had not arrived previously. We were pleased with the overall look but several weeks later, the plants in front of the front door were not doing well. Multiple phone calls for weeks until we were able to get someone out to look at them. They were replaced in about an hour and everything looks good now. Our only complaint is with communication which seems to be difficult for this company. We are really pleased with the work that was done.
Description of Work: Sexton presented an estimate on a landscaping plan for our front & side yards. The landscaping was approved & scheduled. Plants were dug up, moved and new plants were planted. The existing plants were trimmed and we were pleased with the new look.

It went very well in all respects -- and I have very high expectations in landscape work -- usually disappointed. by what I get. I attribute this success to the fact that Sexton L&L offers several capabilities that their competitors do not: (1) Sid Sexton the founder & owner, is a state Certified Landscape Professional (CLP), of which there are few in the Mobile area (2) he has full-time on staff a licensed landscape architect, very rare among landscaping companies in this area and (3) he has an extensive network of sources throughout the Gulf Coast area to draw on for plant stock. I'm a Master Gardener and want large specimens and uncommon plants; Sid has come through with big trees and shrubs at fair prices and has satisfied my desire for the unusual most of the time (had to buy a Black Titi and Paw-Paw from private supplier but most everything else was found and planted by Sexton and his folks).I've had only two large trees suffer from planting shock -- he offered to replace both immediately but one recovered. The other was replaced within days of my agreeing that it was dead. I have had Sexton L&L doing landscape pest control and fertility maintenance at both houses (not routine mowing) and have had continuously beautiful healthy grounds with maximal use of organic and minimally toxic materials. I believe that he is truly unique in this respect -- both of my previous lawn maintenance providers used chemicals that cause me to fear for the safety of my dogs -- as it turned out some of these chemicals were eventually banned by the EPA. In short I am an extremely happy customer of Sexton Lawn and Landscape -- and admit that when it comes to plants and landscaping I am picky-picky. Before settling on Sexton I experience the services of three other landscapers/landscape maintenance people and fired all of them. Further on the first home re-landscaping, I interviewed about a dozen of his competitors and found most to be deficient in several areas of expected performance and the one (other than Sexton) that had the professional design credentials was very hard to work with even in preliminary meetings AND was far more expensive. Without reservation I recommend Sexton Lawn and Landscape for even the largest and most elaborate jobs.
Description of Work: Sexton Lawn and Landscape has landscaped two of my homes in the Fairhope, AL area. The first was a re-landscaping job on the house we built on Savannah Square in Rock Creek (original work done five years earlier by another landscaper who subsequently moved out of country). Sexton installed a slate patio in our walled garden, installed landscape lighting, replaced a number of trees and shrubs throughout the lot and re-sodded areas (needed due to change in planting layout). It was done beautifully and the slate patio in our courtyard was a major selling point when we put the house up for sale. The work was done quickly and with minimal interruption to our daily schedule. It came in slightly under what was bid (not significantly so) and was finished ahead of date promised. I had problems with the setting and operation of the lighting controller and a Sexton employee came out twice to help me -- the problem was in my operational skills not in the equipment. They also came out a few years later to replace bulbs in the lighting heads when I couldn't find the right type at local home and garden stores -- and gave me additional bulbs for future replacements. No charge for house call or bulbs. When we started working with our architect again -- this time for a home in Fairhope proper -- the owner, Sid Sexton, worked with her to configure a footprint and site the house to save valuable existing trees (most important a 50' grandaflora magnolia). He and his staff came up with a broad concept for the landscaping and iterated it over the planning process. He finalized the drsign, got our OK and installed the landscaping over the half acre lot (the price above represents my recollection of the approximate cost of his work including the irrigation and a paver and gravel front driveway and slate and paver paths and front walk, but did not include concrete work and the drive to the rear garage). This was very difficult work because the house itself was about 6 weeks behind schedule and he had to start work while major construction work was still going on -- this situation caused delays in his work and many work-arounds, but with just four days before July 31st when we had to vacate our old house (we closed in April but new owners allowed us to stay on as part of the sale agreement), the last bit of landscaping was done and we moved into a completely finished new home.

No appointmets were kept on time. I had to call to ask where they were after waiting several hours after appointment time. They did not lay down plywood for heavy equipment, and resultingly damaged my yard. Workers stay on the phone the whole time they are at your house, and then the owner of the company complained about having to pay them overtime. I was charged for products that were not used. Staff is unknowledgeable about the work they are doing. What should have been a couple of days work ended up being about a weeks worth spread out over a month. I have to deal with contractor's all day at my job, and this is by far the least professional organization I have ever dealt with.
Description of Work: Planted new sod and did a psring clean-up of lawn.
