C & L Landscape, Inc.

I have been meaning to write this review for some time now. I could not be more happier with the work that C & L Landscape did. It took about a week longer than I was quoted to start the job due to a week of rain. They arrived early in the morning and had all the existing plants and bushes dug up in about 20 minutes. The whole project was completed in 1 day. I couldn't believe that it was all finished in a day. The only hiccup was that the wrong quantity of river rock and lava rock was brought to the house. That was quickly remedied and did not delay the project! I was very impressed with the way Leslie and his crew worked! Dealing with Leslie from day one has been a great pleasure! I have other outdoor projects that need to be done in the future and I will definitely be using them again! Thanks for a great job!

We obtained several estimates from companies on Angie's List. C&L was not the cheapest nor the most expensive, although their bid was one of the higher ones. But it was money well spent. From the day we contacted them until the day the job was completed, we saw excellent customer service, professionalism, hard working crews, and a beautiful result. We had an area by a shed with an old abandoned coy pond. It was surrounded by old flagstones and had tree stumps, plants, and weeds. It was an area of our yard that was ugly and impossible to maintain. George and his team cleared out the entire area and constructed a 24" x 48' paver patio. They refused to bring trucks or any heavy equipment into our yard because they didn't want to do any damage. Instead, all the dirt, crushed rock, pavers, etc. were hauled in by hand using wheelbarrows. They did a great job grading, compacting, cutting and laying the pavers, and cleaned up at the end of each workday. They also installed several new sprinkler heads to ensure proper watering. I purchased a set of LED low-voltage lights, and C&L installed them. They cleared several feet beyond the patio, and at the end, brought in more dirt and fresh sod to finish the job. When they left, the patio area looked like it had been there a while, and there was no sign of any debris or even any wear on our existing lawn. They told us they would send out a pressure-washing crew to clean our driveway (even though I didn't see any dirt they left on it), but they actually pressure-washed the driveway, the curb, and our entire house! At every step, George was in frequent contact, so we always knew exactly what to expect and when. George sends out different teams of specialists - a demolition and paver crew, an irrigation specialist, a lighting specialist, a pressure-washing crew, etc. Most of them have worked for C&L a long time. That alone told us something about the company. George told us several times that if we experienced any problems, he would address them. We believe him. We were very impressed by George and his team, and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

We were looking for a privacy hedge and ornamental trees in the backyard of our newly built home in Ponte Vedra (Nocatee) FL. C&L came out promptly when we called, made great suggestions for plant selections and provided a competitive bid that got the work. Frankly, we put them in the running for the work based on the many, many favorable reviews on Angie's List. Well, hundreds of satisfied customers were right. The work was scheduled and performed in a timely, professional manner. C&L gave a one-year guarantee and will provide "aftercare" in the form of trimming and pruning when the time comes and advice on fertilizing. The plantings are beautiful, and we look forward to engaging C&L on our next project, sealing the pavers in our lanai. Way to go, C&L.

From start to finish C&L Landscape and specifically George Smith made this process very easy. I initially met with George to discuss my desires with the patio and then I received a professional quote about a day later. I was happy with the quote and thought it was a justified price. George and his team took about 9 days to complete the project and I could not be happier. They respected my property, cleaned up at the end of each day and took a lot of pride in the product. George stayed in contact with me throughout the project informing me of the progress they have made and what the plan was for each day. I had a couple discrepancies once they were finished and George came out the next day to address them. George also told me to give him a call after a few weeks if any settling occurred with the patio so they could come and correct them. This company is highly recommended for all your patio/paver needs.

C & L did some landscaping around my entire house, all 4 sides. We had plants removed, some were transferred, trees and bushes trimmed, new plants planted, some sod added, and removal of all of the old mulch, while remulching the entire house with two colors of new mulch. They did an excellent job The only drawback was the price. They were not the least expensive by a long shot, but there was something about the gentleman, George, who did our estimate, who just made me feel confident that this guy had the ability and the integrity to do a good job--which he did. While there was a down payment, no funds were accessed by C & L until we were completely satisfied. Anything that we were concerned about, George took care of. In the end, George did a final "walk thru" with us and we looked over everything, and while everything was fine, I felt confident that if there was something to address, it would promptly be taken care of. Maybe in this case the old saying "You get what you pay for" applies. I would highly recommend them to neighbors and friends. Thank you C & L..

Everyone was great and I cant say enough about George and Tana. Work was performed while we were on vacation and looked beautiful on our return. A small problem with a sprinkler head occurred and Tana had someone out as promised to take care of it. While we contracted only for sod and some additional dirt and grading George and crew added stones to several areas and went above and beyond to make it a good looking job.

Ernie arrived as scheduled. He first cleaned the valve to see if that would fix the problem. When it didn't, he replaced the valve making sure all connections were secure. This fixed the problem. I would use C & L again.

Very Very well. Carl was able to discuss the needs of this property in a very professional manner. I look forward to him taking care of this property.

Very professional. On time, Very accommodating. Went well beyond what agreed upon. We got a larger tree than expected. Our driveway and gutters were pressured washed. Our front and back yards were mowed. The later two services were included without our knowledge. Great company, albeit not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for, and more.

The work was fine but over priced and I would definitely not use this company again. They convinced us to re-sod part of our yard and that they would even out the level of the land, which they did not do.

The quote was a non-starter. Not sure this company knows their value in the market. I was surprised as there are many good reviews.

While I communicated with several different company reps, my primary contact was Mr. George Smith. All contact was outstanding and professional. Mr. Smith was engaged, thorough and reliable. In fact, he returned to check on the condition of the work a week or so after it was completed. The work was top notch and Mr. Smith has been true to his word - it has been a refreshing experience and I will not hesitate to call upon C&L for future work at our home, including pavers, gutters, drainage concerns and any additional or updated lawn type services. I highly recommend C&L for both residential and commercial services - the quality and reliability is first rate.

I would recomend this company for any sprinkler problems. I now have excellent coverage of my yard. No more missed areas and no more wasted water going where it should not be going.

My family is over the moon with the results! We've got a wonderful patio in the back yard, just waiting for autumn to come in. The plantings look amazing, the yard doesn't quake under foot when you walk across it, and George and his staff are checking in with our lawn often as it gets established. Even though it's still brand new, I feel pretty confident that if the sod doesn't take, or some plants die C&L will be here replacing them as soon as possible. One other thing that makes me feel good: We asked for extra plantings and structures that George didn't install after he did the majority of work, fearing too much would make our yard feel crowded. We didn't pay for what was left out - and we all agreed to revisit this in the spring to see if we wanted to add anything after living with our new yard for a few months. Having someone miss out on extra income in order to have a more elegant and polished end product is an exception when working with most contractors. I'm glad to see C&L knows when to back off and let well enough alone. We will definitely use C&L in the future - professional, punctual, and communicative. You DEFINITELY get what you pay for.

I saw an Angie's list deal for $1400 for a 10x12 Paver Patio deal. I purchased this through this site. After the purchase I reached out via email to C&L Landscaping for the initial contact. Within 24 hours I was contacted by George with C&L to set up a time so that he could come out . George was very attentive and knowledgeable with what we were wanting and very personable. He went over everything that would happen with the installation. Once we picked out the color of the pavers he said that they would need to order them and it usually would take about 2-3 weeks to get them in. Luckily the order came in early which allowed them to get started within a week and half. The install took only 1 day to prep and lay all of the stones. Of course being Florida they were dodging weather here and there for the final clean up and sealing of the pavers. Each time there was a weather delay George would call and provide a timeline which was always accurate. The clean up of the site was great, they pressure washed the house and driveway where they had some sand dropped off for the paver installation, which was an added bonus for us. We also had issues with my irrigation not working so we also used C&L for this as well since they were going to have to move a sprinkler head or 2. This team also was great, they worked hard and also provided me options once the issue was diagnosed which was also very appreciative. In closing I will be using this company again, one of the best experiences my family has had, and based on their rating on Angies List I can see why. They are family owned and you can tell they love what they do.

It went fine! They came out on the day they said they would, and had it all done by the end of the day except for having to come back with a rain guard a few days later but the system works like it should and everyone was polite and professional! I don't know if it is the new sod we have but my husband did have to rake up the tilled dirt where the pipes were laid as it was covering the sod from being able to grow back but other wise all was well done!!

Initial contact was with George, who surveyed the area, provided suggestions, and worked with me to decide on the final plan. Since we were having an important event the following month, George kindly made room in their already busy schedule to work us in, which we greatly appreciated. A different crew came to do the actual work a couple of weeks later. Overall they were friendly, quick, and efficient. Toward the end of the day, we were pleasantly surprised when they sent a crew to power-wash our house, driveway, and walkways at no additional charge. I was somewhat disappointed in the fact that the leader for the crew who arrived to do the actual work, strongly suggested modifications to our original plan. I was not fond of the change and voiced my disagreement, but in the end, felt "enthusiastically persuaded" to agree with the modifications. I still wish we had gone with the original plan. They also planted some flowers that I had purchased prior to their arrival at no extra charge, which again, was much appreciated, but if I am to provide an accurate assessment, I will have to say here that the placement was not what I originally pictured. At this point they were working quickly to finish, and since they were doing it as a favor, I was not comfortable asking them to make any more changes. If I had it to do again, I think I would have asked them to just prepare the bed and show me how to do one or two of the flowers so that I could plant them later, when there would have been time to more closely follow the design I had originally envisioned. So, it was very good in many respects with some drawbacks I wish I could have changed. I will say that their follow-up has been outstanding. George returned approximately once per week for a couple of months after installation to monitor the growth progress, especially of the newly laid sod. At one point he noticed that a significant area had died because it was being missed by the sprinkler, and sent a crew to replace it within a week. On another occasion he detected a leak in the irrigation system and repaired it that day, at no cost. The St. Augustine grass in front lawn is beautiful now. The Bahia grass (in the back), and one of the of the podocarpus trees are struggling, but I haven't called them about it as of this report. However, if the past performance is any indication of the future, I am confident that they will be as responsive and supportive as they have been from the beginning. They are a little on the expensive side, which is the reason we were unable to contract them for additional services, but I believe they are still an excellent company and provide quality work.

All of the efforts were coordinated and overseen by George Smith of C&L Landscape, Inc. All of the workers were punctual, polite, friendly, hard-working and professional. The work was scheduled to begin on a Wednesday. Mr. Smith called earlier in the week to see if they could start sooner. At every step along the process, he stopped by or called to make sure the work was progressing as expected and to our satisfaction. Before the work started, they moved all of items from the deck area (furniture, table, umbrella, grill, plants, etc.) and moved them back upon completion. They even cleaned everything before putting it back. They also did a great job cleaning up the work site itself. Also,Mr. Smith went out of his way to help with some other items that were not part of the contract. There had been some unrelated water leak issues and Mr. Smith helped me clean up the area and driveway while waiting. He didn't have to do this. He did it because that is the type of person he is; very helpful and considerate. To us, a good contractor is one who is fair and does the job they promised. And a sign of a great contractor is how they handle the unexpected situations that may occur. We did encounter some unanticipated issues regarding the sealing of the pavers. George assured us the problem would be resolved 'whatever it takes'. And he was good to his word. He was here with an employee working together on a Saturday to make sure that everything was corrected and to our satisfaction....without any additional cost to us. I would highly recommend C&L Landscape. We thoroughly enjoyed working with them and Mr. Smith. By the way....we hired them based on recommendations on Angie's List!

It went well. They did a good job with the explanation of the issue as well as the install of the new valve.

Wonderful! I have used this company multiple times for small & large projects. Everyone goes above and beyond to ensure me "the customer" is happy and that everything is completed in a timely manner without sacrificing quality. They repeatedly followed-up with us after the project was completely. George first met me for a consultation at a time that accommodated my schedule. A written estimate/proposal was provided to me promptly. He spent time reviewing the estimate with me and answered all my questions. They started this rather large project at a time that was convenient to our schedule. The paint contractors we were using ran way behind so they were in the way of C&L workers but they did a great job working around them. The crew of C&L workers were wonderful and worked very well as a unit and individually. I never saw any of them just standing around. They were all very friendly, answered questions I had during the project and worked with me on changes I wanted regarding the placement of plants. All of the plants they provided were in excellent condition or they didn't use them. George came back a few weeks after the project was completed to inspect the condition of the plants and had a few replaced that he did not feel were thriving. George and Tommy were both exceptional to work with. Our entire yard was completely clear of debris when they finished and they pressure washed all remnants of soil from the driveway.

I thought the price was a little high, but they were prompt, responsive, and professional. Excellent get actually performed the work.

The contractor I worked with was very respectful of my time from our first phone call to the completion of the project, arranging our meetings around my limitations to be at the house. When the days came that I had planned for the work to begin, a crew of 2-3 were on site for two work days. The materials used were professional landscaping goods, not half-rate. Since we'd already had a meeting at my place to do an estimate, the contractor already knew what plants I wanted to use. C & L picked up the plants and brought them the first morning. All were of excellent quality. On both days the landscapers left nothing on site except what had been planted. Care was taken not to damage the neighboring yard or leave any debris in the road/driveway when they left. I did get comments from a few of my neighbors while the work was being done about how good it was going to look when finished. I am glad that I did go with C & L and will contact them for future outdoor projects. The best part of the yard for me is the railroad ties. The guys cut them on site to fit my yard. Their work was very detailed and professional.

I must say this company takes a great amount of pride in the job they do. There were some minor problems which were PROMPTLY addressed and corrected by the owners of the company. It was good to see a company that still values its customers. If you need work done, I recommend you give these folks a shot - they get the meaning of good service.

He showed up on time (a few minutes early, actually), was courteous, got the work done in the amount of time that they estimated (which is helpful when they bill by the hour), and my sprinkler is working now! He reviewed the new panel with me and explained how it worked. He made sure all systems/zones were working properly and notified me of any concerns (with sprinkler heads, etc.) that he observed while he was working in the yard. I would 100% hire them again in the future, should I have any more landscape/irrigation issues. Bonus: They were the only company who worked me into their schedule when all other companies wouldn't. I really appreciated that, since my grass was in horrible condition due to lack of rain and lack of a functioning sprinkler system.

This company is run by some very nice, very competent and knowledgeable people. George and Tommy were a pleasure to deal with and nothing was ever "too much" or "not in the contract". A crew of 5-8 people arrived on time everyday and worked practically without a break. Every one of the crew seemed to know just what to do and they all worked hard at it. They all were friendly and professional. There were several items that I changed after the contract was signed and they were accomplished without any extra cost to me. Some additional plants were needed and supplied at no cost. I was very impressed with the organization of the work schedule. It seemed to me that when plants or material were needed they arrived right on time so there were no delays. The work actually started sooner than promised and ended on schedule. The final surprise was the pressure washing. This was not part of the contract. All buildings sidewalks and driveway were done at no expense to me. It was just the finishing touch that C & L put at the completion of the work. George is coming again for several more trips to spray for any weeds missed and check on the plants. Just one more "nice touch" from what I consider a top notch company. I will definitely use them again and again.
