Plantscape

Under their "care", plant after plant died. Bryan always had some "not me" explanation. Right from the start, a giant 5ft succulent began dying off. They blamed age or some virus. Armstrong Nursery diagnosed over-watering. Plantscape had just installed a drip system. We turned off the water and the plant recovered. Glad I didn't listen to Bryan!! What bothered me is how quick he was to blame other causes, when the new drip system should have been the most obvious suspect. This idiocy repeated itself a dozen times over two years. They don't know ANY thing about plants - can't say when is the correct time to prune or how to prune properly. No clue. These guys are just local boys who mow lawns and they know nothing more. Under their "care" all my sweet clover was overtaken by burr clover because they didn't know the difference! The final straw was when the gardener was supposed to kill weeds in the yard and suddenly a plot of mint turned black. They denied putting weed killer on the mint. A strange coincidence?? They are killing weeds in the yard and an entire garden of mint turns black? Please! So stupid. The whole plot of mint turned black and died. (A year later it is slowly recovering.) Same time, the gardener flat out lied about coming to my property, not realizing that I was home and I know he didn't come. Elaborate lies to cover. I fired them and hired my neighbor's gardeners who quickly spotted the bur clover and many other problems. The new gardeners immediately recovered my lawn and treated my plants for "gardener's blight" (damage inflicted by gardeners.) And my new gardeners even cost LESS! Two years wasted with these people. Arghhh!

Great! Unable to get on ladder to trim top of hedge, but don't mind that. They listened to exactly what I needed and followed through. It has been tough getting previous people to understand how to care for my native plants, but they did a great job!

Bryan was a gem, brought his son to help spread new(reasonably priced) mulch and, although he missed a few things I felt should have been included in his purview, he actually called me back and made it a point to return and meet all the criteria!

Excellent. The valves were replaced and no more leaks.

Bryan came out and checked everything out, said what I had going looked good and could be self-maintained. Main point is he was honest and not trying to charge someone who wouldn't benefit enough from a bi-weekly visit. I'll definitely go to him for bigger projects such as re-doing our drip piping or adding to the landscape. But I felt a review was warranted for the overall good experience I had!

It was excellent. They took care of everything! I'm going to be using them again in the near future because they did such a great job.

Bryan is trustworthy, responsive and friendly. He "tuned up" all my sprinklers for summer in addition to fixing a broken line. I have used his services multiple times as my system is about 30 years old and has reached that half-life where things need to be replaced.

It all went very well. Our yard looks 100% better. The price for all that was $187 for about 3 hours work.

Bryan did an Outstanding job! He gave us good labor and material prices. His creative plant and Hardscape suggestion were very well received by my wife. He was very prompt in communication and completion of the schedule of sections in the project. Not only I will recommend and rehire Bryan, I am now planning an additional project with Bryan.

Great, they worked around our schedule and did a wonderfull job. They talked through and explained everything and listen to what you wanted. High quality work tailored for the costumer

Bryan and his son were great to work with. VERY responsive, reasonably priced (had two other bids that were more...), showed up on time (or early) and did a great job. Overall, very satisfied (in fact, our neighbor hired him on the spot for a job after seeing the work that he had done on our place).

Bryan is professional, personable, knowledgable, and his pricing is reasonable. All of the work went well and I have future plans to have him replace a 70' fence that blew down in the recent wind storms. I would highly recommend him.

It went okay. They should have two people instead of one. They should have more manpower. The price was fair.

We were extremely pleased with every part of the project. After I initially called Plantscape to inquire about their interest in offering me a bid for the project, Bryan, the owner, was prompt to come to look at our yard and meet me. He offered a bid the next day. I told him I was about to accept a competitor's bid, but after meeting him, and hearing about his company's work ethic and receiving a very good bid for his work, we decided to go with Plantscape. They completed every part of the project wonderfully. They searched nurseries for the exact plants on our landscape plan, as I was very adamant that we wanted those specific plants. Rain did delay the planting part of the project, but then we were pleased that he didn't rush and plant in soggy soil just to complete the job and get his money :) Upon completion, he told us to contact him anytime we had any concerns with how the plants are doing or if we had any questions about the drip irrigation working properly. We would certainly highly recommend Plantscape to others considering bids for renovating their yards from turf to drought resistant landscaping.

They did a great job.. They were professional, showed up when they said they would and completed the job in two days. Over all they went above and beyond what we expected and they are just really nice people.. We would definitely use them again and highly recommend them to others.

Response was very prompt and we were able to get some broken stations repaired quickly. The technician also fixed a longstanding problem of some other broken stations which we did not think could be fixed by joining them with another hookup. Very pleased and would use this service again.

Fantastic job, we now have a weekly arrangement. These guys are family owned work extremely hard and have a heart for pets and personal preference. Our yard is no joke, they make it look easy. Thanks Plantscape!

I was extremely pleased with all work and recommendations, enough that I hired Plantscape for monthly maintenance. Since then I have experienced quick response to my needs, and I am happy to have them caring for my landscape today.

Brian was great to work with. Showed up on time for the estimate, talked through several options, and agreed on a price. His team showed up on the appointed day, quickly and efficiently performed the work, and cleaned up after the job was done. Very well done.

They are always on time and fairly priced

He was prompt and professional. He told me I shouldn't change a thing! He said to gain any advantage, I'd have to re-pipe most of the yard and it would never pay for itself. He mentioned that I needed to change 2 sprinkler heads to get better coverage of two areas but I could do it myself for $5.00. Bryan spent quite a bit of time with me and answered every question I had and never charged me a penny. Believe me, honesty and professionalism like this is hard to come by. Plantscape and Bryan will be the only company I use in the future for irrigation (I plan on acquiring rental properties).

I met with Brian Giese, and walked around the yard with a our plan, and talked through the details of what we wanted. The work involves removing large areas of existing concrete, replacing 14,000 sq ft of lawn with low water use plants, irrigation throughout, installing a walkway, spa and surrounding decking, creating an orchard and garden area, accent lighting, and planting three hillsides totaling about a half acre. The plant list contains about 600 individual plants, including 8 large specimen trees. Big job. In order to get the rebate for removing the lawn, we need to have the new plants in within a couple months or so, so we are on a fairly tight schedule. Plus summer is coming, and we want to beat the heat. My husband and I had been waffling between hiring one general contractor to oversee the whole job vs. saving some money by hiring separate trades. I discussed this with Brian. Brian gave me really good ideas about how to approach the different aspects of the job, helped me think through how many different trades I needed to hire to get all the work done, and how to organize the work into separate contracts. He gave me feedback on the plants selected. He referred me to a carpenter/general contractor to do the deck work, and also a guy to do concrete removal who both have come by to bid on the job - both have come by to bid, and both seem like very capable, upstanding guys. After studying our landscape plan in detail, Brian called me and let me know he decided not to bid on the job. The scope of work was too big and the schedule too demanding for his crew. He said he would rather pass on the work than ultimately disappoint a customer. He even stopped by to return the paper copy of my plan so I could reuse it with another contractor! Bottom line: knowledgeable, helpful, personable, honest guy. I was disappointed to hear he would not bid, but at the end of the day, really appreciated the honesty.

We originally hired them to plant our steep bank with ice plant. We are disabled and can still maintain a beautiful, stress free landscape due to Jay and Bryan from Plant Scape.

The cost is 135 a month. I just really started using them so, so far so good. They are coming like they said they would and they are taking good care of the yard. I think their pricing is fair.

Fantastic! Great service. Very conscientious, pleasant, courteous, and professional.
