Two days later I got a call, "Let me tell you how this goes". That was the first thing that Russel said after pleasantries. He said, "We charge a non-refundable $75.00 fee to do an estimate." When I clarified that they will charge me $75 to do an estimate on a $20K project, and was surprised, he said "yep, we have to pay estimators to look at projects, and we just want to make sure they are legit, and we are not giving ideas for them to do themselves or others..." I decided to look elsewhere.
Description of Work: I went to the company web site and used their link to get an estimate for an entire back and side yard landscaping project. I added in the note section I was interested in sod, retaining wall, walking paths, dry creek beds, trees, shrubs and other plantings as well as irrigation work.

Response from Bradford Yard Living + Landscaping
We are sorry that we did not meet your expectations. We feel that the $600 fee was reasonable for the time that was put into your design. We feel the design not only helps the customer but also helps our crews install the job properly if we have the opportunity to do so. It is always our hope to not only to design for our customers, but also have our crews do the installation. We refund the design fee back to the customer if we do the instillation. If your needs change or we can assist further, please let us know. Russell Ellis

Have tried for 3 years to get something growing on the south side of my lawn, and have been unsuccessful. Tried it myself once. NO -- The next year I tried a professional landscape company. NOPE. It has been 2.5 months and it finally looks like I'm going to have grass this year. I should have called Bradford Yard Living & Landscaping in the first place. I will certainly use them again.
Description of Work: Re-seeded part of my lawn.

They did a good job.
Description of Work: Rain made a trench in our yard and different color and size stones were overlapped and pushed around. Manually corrected the issue. Time consuming, but all was put back into order.

Due to the time of year it currently is, as per their recommendation, we will wait to have the installation done until early fall.
Description of Work: I contacted them and they set up an appointment as soon as possible for a designer to meet and look at our property. Within the stated time, we received a call from them so that we could meet at the nursery to see the plan and actual plants. Bob is very knowledgable, professional and friendly. They also provided a written estimate to us.

I wouldn't hesitate to use Bradford Nursery in the future.
Description of Work: I haven't had Bradford Nursery do any services, I just go into their store. When we moved in here, they just did a landscaping joint force and they did a good job with that, but other than that we haven't used their services. So, other than going into the Bradford Nursery store and buying some stuff I haven't actually used their services. They gave quote, and that was what they quoted for, they gave us a a drawing of landscaping yard of how we could set it up and they didn't actually come up and do any landscaping. But we ended up doing that stuff a whole lot cheaper, it's not that what they were doing was wrong or overly expensive, we just didn't want to spend that money.

I had been looking for a nursery that could provide me with soil to plant grass. Other locations were either impatient with my questions or over priced. Bradford Nursery's prices were VERY resonable, but more importantly they were very helpful and did a good job explaining what materials I would need, gave me different option that would work and a cost range. They were also very accomodating. Originally, I was going to pick up the soil myself. Their delivery cost are very resonable, I would've spent the same on fuel and wasted a lot of time. The morning I was planning to pick up the soil I decided to have them deliver and they were out here a couple of hours later! I know the turn around may not always be that quick if they are busy, but I appreciate that they didn't make me wait. I will continue to use Bradford Nursery!
Description of Work: Good quality soil for seeding grass. They have a mix that helps with proper drainage and nutrients. We have clay here, so having a health yard can be a challenge.

I was skeptical as with all bids but the company showed up when they said and answered all my questions and concerns and made my home beautiful. They even hooked up two of my water fountains and put water in them. As for the patio, they spread gravel and mulch and made a wonderful sitting area. I could not be happier with the professionalism.
Description of Work: I had recently purchased a home that was previously a rental so the front and back yard lacked any landscaping and suffered from overgrowth severely. I had talked to Ian and Russel at Bradford Nursery and they came out and actually quoted me $1200. This included a litany of services from cleanup to mowing and pretty much completely transforming my whole yard. I also had them straighten a rock wall that covered the entire front of the house.

Ian came out and talked to us about putting in some rose bushes and ivy. They have some wonderful reclaimed planters that matched the wood and stuff on the buildings. Ian sometimes stops and just checks things out and lets us know if there needs to be any watering or special attention. They know their stuff. They go above and beyond and its good for the community.
Description of Work: Had them come out and consult on planters and ivy.

They were great! They came over and discussed plans that we wanted to do. Then, looked at their inventory and picked out materials/plants, etc. They were so helpful in explaining what should be in our yard and how things will look throughout the seasons. The guys they sent out to do the work were very professional and courteous. The clean up process was very good too. All in all am very happy. Best money we have spent on landscaping.
