Excellent design and installation job by Top Notch Landscaping. They did a total makeover of my front yard landscaping and it looks fantastic. Work was done professionally, on-time, and at price quoted. I would recommend John Ross and his team to anyone looking for a top notch landscaping company.

John Ross and Top Notch Landscaping did a great job updating the plants and trees around my home. John's exceptional design ideas and knowledge of FL plants resulted in a lovely garden in front and new plantings in back. The crew arrived promptly and cleaned up well when finished. The job was completed efficiently and professionally. I highly recommend Top Notch.

This company did a large job for me, was put off for a short period of time but did the job and was great work initially. Once this company receives your money they take no reported problems within the guarantee agreement seriously. I had 23 of one specific plant installed in which they started to die off 2 months later. I was reimbursed for 5 of them but they just continued to die off leaving that area in the bed with a large space of nothing. I asked for someone to come and replant and fix the problem and was told they would do so. After about 3 months of phone calls, a couple emails unanswered and numerous phone calls and pics of the bed sent they finally showed up after giving me a continuous run around and never showing up when stated they would. The date I originally asked for someone to fix the problem was July 18 and went to October 15!! John likes to play "dumb" as well. After so long I was given his cell phone and dealt with him directly. I realized as I was not home when they installed the plants that they installed shriveled up dry/brown dying plants. I called John in disbelief and he denied that the plants are dying and stated I needed to water them. At this point I have been more patient than any other person would have been and I have asked the better business bureau to step in. I urge anyone to take this review very seriously and not to use this company, they charge top dollar but do not provide top dollar service. I have provided pics of the plants installed, you can clearly see all the healthy ones vs the dying ones.

never replaced the tree.
Description of Work: One of the trees they installed died only a few months after they installed it. We kept on calling and calling and were told that they would take care of it but never did. We received a call after many months which it was too late. Would never hire them again.

Some problems along the way, but John Ross, the owner made sure the job was finished to our satisfaction. The Landscape designer was very helpful. Pricing was very competitive and quality of plants and materials very good. We will use this company to finish off our re-landscape as we have not yet done our side yard. They did a beautiful job for our next door neighbor as well.

The value was good. The quality of work was very good. He designed a plan specifically for my yard and it turned out to be more than I thought I was going to get; I liked it more than I thought I would too. He was very creative and knowledgeable. He made it easy to dream and turn my dream into reality.
Description of Work: I had them move some trees and put in rock. They put in new trees and plants. They also built a walkway. The whole process took 2 months, and the landscaping took 1 week to complete. I wasn't at home during the bulk of the work, but the crew consisted of about 12-15 guys.

Description of Work: Don't waste your time!! |I called this company because a friend had scheduled work with them, and they seem reasonable. I called the office and was told someone would get back to me within a day to schedule an appointment. Three days went by, no call back. So, I called again, had to give all my information over again. |Was told the same, I would be contacted within a day. A week went by and no call back. Again, I contacted the office and was given John's cell number to make arrangements with him. I spoke with John, and we scheduled a day for him to come out to give me an estimate. He said I didn't have to be home, he would e-mail me the estimate that same afternoon. Never happened! Two days later, I called John to make sure he had the correct |e-mail - he did. Again, we scheduled a second appointment, this time my husband was going to be home and waiting for him. No show, didn't even call. As for my friend, his work has been rescheduled several times - he's been waiting now for almost two months. Not professional!

When pitching for the job, John was timely and very responsive. He came out with a colleague and after a visit or two and conversations with us, they produced a nice landscape plan. It was detailed and we liked it. The estimate was detailed down to the per item cost for all of the small shrubs. Labor was outlined separately for each group of tasks. We agreed and off they went. This was a big job. The quality of work was good when they came to do it. The team on the ground were nice, uniformed and they worked hard when they were here. On the big stuff - the tree removal and installation, it went very smoothly despite it being quite an operation. The problem arose in actually getting them here. I had paid a hefty deposit and grew increasingly annoyed at their excuses for delays. Once they began the job their presence varied and it dragged on way longer than it should have. The worst was the follow up. Top Notch offer a 6 month guarantee on what they plant as long as it is taken care of. We had many of the small plants die. We had four gardenias die. Repeated calls to their office got no result. In fact, despite all the calls to the office I have never heard from John again. He has one pleasant person working for him named Deanne (I think). She came out once and took photos of that which had died and promised to get back to me. She called once or twice to touch base but they never attempted to put things right or never again came to my house. I will never recommend them or use them again.

As I mentioned John is a very pleasant man. We always had cordial conversations. However he does not show up when promised and I honestly feel there are much better landscapers out there. I will not recommend him ever again.
Description of Work: The owner John Ross is a very pleasant person but it stops there. He and his staff are not punctual and the job is fair at best when they finish. We had work done in the spring of 2012 by Top Notch landscaping and we asked John to design and plant a bed in the front of the house. I told him I wanted plants that required little to no work and I wanted some color. As we get little sun we left it up to him to choose the appropriate plants. After waiting longer than promised with repeated no shows it was finally done. One variety of plant he supplied began to die and he promised to replace them. We waited and called or texted him several times and he would promise to come and replace them but never showed up. After several months another variety of plant the Rios began to die off. Frustrated we called John again and he came over and promised to replace both plants which totaled quite a few. After repeated no shows we took it upon ourselves to replace the plants that were looking the worst with a new hardier variety. We had little choice as the Pentas he planted just looked terrible and the front of our house looked neglected and was an embarrassment. We absorbed the cost of the new plants ourselves and have never received compensation from John for the dead Pentas. Then the Rios started looking terrible and he had still not replaced them. We were not going to replace them ourselves as we had done with the Pentas. We continued to call him and he would promise to come and not show up. Finally yesterday he replaced the Rios. Approximately SIX months after we notified him that his plants were not doing so well. Honestly the new plants look healthy but the planting looks rushed and not evenly spaced. We will move them around and in all likelihood purchase a couple more as it looks a bit sparse.

I thought that he was pretty easy to get along with, and he was knowledgeable. It did not take him long to install. I had trouble getting in touch with him but once he came the installation happened quickly. Getting him to come and getting everything ordered on time was bad.
Description of Work: I used Top Notch Landscaping & Design Inc in June. He took out what was already existing, prepared the beds, and planted them.

top notch scheduled the appointment and showed up same day-scheduling was based on their having other work in area and prior to any storm showing up. i recommend being home to be sure workers know what is to be done but its not necessary to supervise the job just verify work prior to start

The four man crew arrived at 9 a.m. as promised; they stayed until the entire job was completed at 5 p.m. They were courteous and professional. John Ross, the owner, was on hand to manage and adjust the work as necessary. John presented a landscape plan that was within our budget, and, most importantly, he adjusted it as necessary to reflect our needs and wants. A professional guy and a solid company that I highly recommend.
Description of Work: Updated and improved the 6 year old landscaping on my new home. Specifically, John and his able crew relocated 2 large triple Adonida Palms; relocated 12 boxwoods; and installed 138 plants, hedges and a Robellini palm as part of a large job which refreshed 2 beds in the front and one bed on the west side of my home. He also made an earlier emergency call to reattach the large bougainvillea vine that had become detached from the front of my home.
