I know that Eric, the owner, will have a rebuttal for everything I say here, but I’ve decided to submit this review anyway, since I have nothing but the truth to offer from my direct experience. Since I am currently dealing with limited mobility, I reached out to Marlowe Landscaping for their services. Having invested nearly $8,000 in his landscaping business, I feel I had a right to expect quality product and performance. I do not feel I received either. (1) When we originally discussed the plan for my yard, one of the most important things for me was to ensure that nothing but freeze-hardy plants would be planted in my yard, and this was emphasized on at least 3 occasions. As it turned out, 10 plants were not freeze hardy and succumbed to the freeze we had last winter. Some of them came back several months later, but, in the meantime, those areas were quite ugly. Eric later came to check out my garden and made a commitment to replace the 6 Java White Copperleaf and 4 Pink Picotee Copperleaf shrubs that were not freeze hardy. (2) Eric was asked to order Sprinter Boxwoods (Buxus microphylla) for the 3 beds across the front of my home. Unfortunately, 28 shrubs were planted which turned out not to be Sprinters, but rather the cultivar Carissa Macrocarpa boxwoods. One of the boxwoods died, and because they were not currently available from his grower, I ordered one from Home Depot. When it arrived, I was shocked -- it was absolutely nothing like the ones planted here. I asked Eric to contact his grower about this discrepancy and was told that his grower said they were Sprinters, and that’s what I got. Since I couldn’t just stick this actual Sprinter in with the non-Sprinter boxwoods, I asked his crew to remove one from the center at the front corner, replace the one that died, and plant the Sprinter I ordered in its place in the center of this small circular area. The crew planted it on the outer edge. 3) The crew had initially planted 25 Encore Azaleas throughout the backyard. General instructions for planting azaleas are that they should be planted with the root ball only slightly above soil level and mulched, and I had simply asked that some of the readily available surrounding mulch material (pine needles, leaves, etc.) be raked in over the surrounding plants. After the crew finished and departed, I discovered that several azaleas were quite obviously sitting much too high (some were more than 3 inches high), and most were not mulched at all. Obviously, his crew did not respect my wishes, or perhaps they didn’t even listen. I contacted Eric and was told his crew was busy. By the time they returned to tend to this issue, several plants were already lost and some were struggling to survive. Even with my watering every other day, several azaleas were obviously not going to make it. When the same crew finally did return, they were to also plant an additional 11 azaleas that I had ordered some time ago. Even with my emphasis to plant the azaleas only slightly above soil level, most of these shrubs were neither well planted, nor well mulched. This crew was, in my opinion, certainly not worth the $75 (each) per hour that I was charged. Sadly, I have lost 15 plants (so far), with a value of over $825, and several more appear to be dying as I write this review. (4) In addition to that issue, Eric’s crew planted 28 Summer Sunset Jasmine plants (@ $8.50, for a total of $238) throughout the backyard. I can barely find 6 of them. (5) I recently asked Eric if he could have his crew come and move the Sprinter Boxwood from the outer edge to the center of the corner bed (also sent photo), and he replied that he would have to “respectfully pass on any further work” for me. So I have basically been dumped, leaving much unfinished business, and that is that. He has since sent me a check in the amount of a meager $108, as if that is sufficient to make up for my loss. Eric’s poor customer relations and condescending attitude only add to my unpleasant experience with Marlowe Landscaping

Eric Marlowe is one of the most professional people we have had the pleasure to work with. He gave us a detailed estimate of what he would be doing to our yard and the cost of each element involved. He and his team were here for work when they said they would be and didn't leave until the work was completed. Our job is completed and we couldn't be happier with the looks of our yard and the work that Eric and his team accomplished. On the last day of the project we decided that a small palm tree needed to be taken out and within a very short time Eric had his team remove the tree and had another company on the site to grind down the stump. Definitely utilize this company for your landscaping needs. They are the very best you could ask for.
Description of Work: Total front yard berm and area in back yard removed of all plants and replaced with sod.
Eric and his crew did a great job landscaping our house and his crew mows my grass weekly.

Went rain despite all the rain delaying obtaining sod. The crew was professional and cleaned up well after each visit. The re-sodding looks great now, the wall is good, and the front landscaping is growing and looking better and better everyday. We will be having the crew back to finishing rebuilding the rest of our long retaining wall this winter. Too wet now to do the job, its a swamp back there.

Once again Marlowe Landscaping has exceeded my expectations. They have done this on all of the jobs done for me. Louis, the tree climber, is exceptional. They offer advice and truly care about my landscape. The work was done very professionally, promptly, and the cleanup was phenomenal. I will call Marlowe Landscaping any time I need work done on my trees.
Description of Work: I had 4 pine trees die unexpectedly. Eric came out the day after I called and determined they had pine borers. He made special arrangements to have them cut down, grind the stumps, and the debris removed within a week.

Due to the Hurricane, our schedule was out by a week or so, which we understood and had no problem with. Eric called, told us when he would start, brought over the person who would install the curbing. His crew came and trimmed/removed the old landscaping day one. Day 2 someone came to grind out the large stumps. Day 3 his crew came and removed all the old lava rock. Day 4 curbing went in, day 5 his crew came and planted all the new plants. Day 6 mulch was put down and the job was finished. It does not look like the same yard. I am so happy with this job.
Description of Work: When we moved into our house, trees in the back yard and front yard had never been trimmed. Eric and crew drastically trimmed the back trees (we can now see the fence), removed all but one palm in the front beds, removed the lava rocks from the front beds, curbed the front beds, planted all new front bedding plants and mulched the front and back beds. He also planted 3 citrus, 1 fig, 1 mango and 2 plumeria in the back yard.

Marlowe has been managing my Florida Native property for almost 2 years. He does a great job.
Description of Work: I have a unique Florida Native property, not the standard St. Augustine yard. Eric works with me to manage it properly. I appreciate his ability to work with the unexpected. His crew cuts, edges, trims on a weekly basis. He has also done expert tree trimming, keeping my oaks and palm trees healthy.
All went well. The minor oversights were quickly corrected. And when asked they came back to handle new issues.
Description of Work: Build paver walkway. Replace dying shrubs. Trim existing shrubs. Remove old leggy bouganvilla. Add sprinklers as needed.

Initially I received great service. Then we waited for additional services and paid extra as required. When the plants died within two weeks we contacted the owner and after he finally got back to us he gave us some choices for replacement...have not heard from him for two months. I'm done. Would not recommend ..very disappointed because initially I thought this company was great.
Description of Work: Planted front and back t yard landscaping which was fine although the plants we initially wanted were not available. He delivered and planted phase two which consisted of about 5 new plants - he was paid.

Overall I was very pleased with Eric and his team of landscape installers. Eric came out to the house and did a free estimate. He was very approachable and easy to work with and gave me a detailed price quote. He had a good vision for what would work well on our property and also incorporated my suggestions. They worked quickly and the finished product is amazing. He was very responsive to small issues that I noticed and was more than happy to fix them. All in all I would highly recommend him if you are in need of a large project such as a pool reconstruction. It was pricey but worth it for quality.

Marlowe looked at all of my trees and recommended which ones needed trimming and which did not. There were also some that I thought might need to be cut down, but he advised that they are fine. He is a true arborist, not just a guy with a chain saw. I followed his recommendations and am very happy with the results.
Description of Work: I had several trees at two different locations that I thought might need trimming.

Eric Marlowe is a true professional and a pleasure to work with. He is knowledgeable in his field and is willing to explain things until you understand them. I took advantage of the Big Deal offer on Angie's List he posted but I would have paid double that for the time he spent advising me. Many of his suggestions were put in over the weekend and the property looks really improved. I would highly recommended Mr. Marlowe to friends, family, and neighbors.
Description of Work: Mr. Marlowe walked my entire property and advised me on how to cut back or remove certain plants and shrubs to accent the street side of my property. He also pointed out where my pest control company is not controlling pests on the fan palms. We went on the the rear of the property where he went through each species of plant and shrub and tree and advised what should be cut or transplanted or left where it was. He also recommended new landscape plants to be put in blank spaces.
