Paid my down payment 6 weeks ago, never heard from them. I have emailed countless times to no response. Unprofessional would rate a 0/10 if I could but not possible. I’m not one to write reviews but this was so awful that I had to ensure no one else has this same issues.

I would NEVER recommend these people.
Description of Work: Yard was to be bordered with metal edging. They put it in crooked and said they thought we’d want it that way. Also ran short of edging and charged us another $200. They planted huge shrubs that had been hit with frost which another landscaper told us about and the shrubs are still struggling. Also did a terrible job of filling in a construction area and reseeding. Three years later it still hasn’t filled in properly.

Matt, the owner, was always here when he said he would be. His team communicated with us throughout the work. We were delighted with the professionalism and passion of everyone we interacted with. We are really thrilled with the results! I would highly recommend them. After the landscaping was installed, Matt met with us to go over plant names and plant care. Again - nice touch!
Description of Work: Matt's team cleared out an overgrown flower bed, and created a landscape design for the entire front of our house. They cleared and trimmed - and then installed the new plantings.

We are more than happy with the results. The design and plant selection was a much needed upgrade from plants that had overgrown and hid the house from view. On time, did what they stated, gave us a detailed binder of how to care for plants. Returned during the drought to insure I was watering correctly.

For regular consumers like my wife and I this project completed by Hoot Landscape & Design was a very satisfying experience. Matt Denny who is the owner met with us a few weeks before this project started, listened to what we were trying to do, gave us his ideas and provided us with a layout drawing and cost estimate. We used Hoot last year for a similar project around the back of our house and we were also very satisfied. Matt and his crew of four arrived around 8:00 am two days earlier than originally scheduled. Matt is a take charge guy and he immediately had his crew in high gear and by 3:30 in the afternoon everything was done and cleaned up. It was amazing to us how much can be done in such a short amount of time. The success of Hoot to me lies in the fact that they are organized and that Matt brings a positive attitude to the job. This project was completed early and within budget. We would recommend Hoot Landscaping to anyone looking for a professional landscaping job at a reasonable price.
Description of Work: Redid 90% of the landscaping in the front of our home. Two large landscaping beds were almost completely redone. Included was tearing out 10 large evergreens and bushes, transplanting 5 large bushes, tearing out a few existing plants, cleaning out existing mulch and replacing with large merimac landscaping rock, laying heavy duty weed preventive barrier, installing steel edging around the bed edges and planting 16 new perennials and one new 8 foot Serviceberry tree.

Matt Denny and crew were not only professional but courteous and exacting. Each shrubbery was put in exactly as designed to the inch. The shrubbery and sod were in excellent condition and planted with care. Upon leaving, instructions were given as to the care to be given until the plants were settled in. It is seldom in this day to have this care given to the job. I certainly will pass on this information to other condo owners.

Bill came to look at our yard, made several suggestions, then returned with a plan and quote. We made some changes, then arranged for installation. The crew was very professional, worked very hard and the results were excellent. We have had some questions about watering and they have been responsive. We initially thought the cost for the new retaining wall was high, but after watching it installed and seeing the result, we understand.
Description of Work: We contacted Hoot Landscaping to replace a failing retaining wall and update our overgrown landscaping.

Matt and his crew were prompt and the customer service was excellent. I was amazed at how quickly they cleared the property. I had a lot of vegetation to be removed and the yard needed to be completely cleared of years of mulch and waste.. Once the property was cleared they proceeded to put in the new vegetation, plant the new grass, and mulch the flower beds. I was impressed with the speed of their work and they completely cleaned up the area before they left. In fact, Matt and the crew also worked on areas of the yard, trimming and mulching, that were not included in the estimate and I was not charged for it. I plan on doing some additional work next spring and will definitely call Hoot. I would recommend this company to anyone who needs landscaping design and work. Thanks to Matt, Susan and the crew for a job well done!
Description of Work: I called Hoot to get an estimate for redoing landscaping that was overgrown, fill of weeds, and just too much to handle. Hoot presented me with a plan for the work along with the estimated cost. I requested a plan that would be easy to maintain and not require a great deal of time. Susan developed the plan and Matt presented it to me. I approved it and the work started within three weeks. It only took a couple of days and they completely transformed my yard..

The quote about $12,000. I thought they were professional. They did a really good job. They were pretty quick to respond with the quote the same week. It might've been just a few days after I originally contacted them that they came out.

It went outstanding, they hit every benchmark they gave me. They followed up with me about a year later to make sure the plants were still doing alright and that everything looked great. They knocked all my expectations out of the park.

They are fast and efficient. They have a wonderful variety of stock. They have a landscape architect who will come out and check things out. They did a flagstone pathway for me seven years ago that is still perfect. They built a retaining wall seven years ago that hasn't moved an inch. They tend to over book clients. Every landscaper tends to do the same thing.

By the middle of June, not having heard from him, we felt he was no longer interested and selected another landscaper. That landscaper quoted the job four days later and we scheduled it to start right after the Fourth of July. He will finish this Friday and so far it looks beautiful.
Description of Work: Requested a quote the first week in April but told him we would be out of town the last two weeks of April and would be back the first of May. During the scond week of May not having heard from him, we called and were told he had been busy and would get back to us.

Bill Hoot is a great person to work with. He had a clear vision for renovating our landscaping, and it was great to see the vision become a reality. Although the company tends to move slowly (e.g. it was over a month from initial planning to actual install of the landscaping), it was worth the wait, and much of the timing is beyond their control (e.g. weather). The actual tear-out and install went smoothly--a crew of four to five professionals. One day for tear-out, and one day for install. The difference is amazing--our home looks about 20 years younger now! We enjoyed going to the nursery prior to the install to pick out the type of plants that we wanted. We do have a couple of kinks to work out: they moved the lightpost and it doesn't work now and one of the plants is having a hard time adjusting. Overall, though, I'm sure that we will get those issues worked out. I think the company offers a good balance of quality and value. We got a few quotes, and their quote fell in the middle, but what sold was Mr. Hoot's vision for our property. He was able to include a couple of different ideas that solved some issues for us (e.g. trenching and draining of downspouts, a small privacy fence and flagstone in the area where we park our trash can, etc.) Thumbs up!

It was a great experience!! Working with this company is a dream. They arrived with a whole crew, all longtime employees and completed the project in one day. They are very popular, for obvious reasons, so you have to plan ahead. We loved the look they created, completely met our goal of improving our curb appeal. We sold in ONE WEEK!!! Can't thank them enough!!

We received 2 bids and chose Hoots primarily because of the way they worked with us on what we wanted as well as their competitive price. His landscape designer Susan is outstanding. Our daughter in law is a landscape designer in Charlotte and was extremely impressed with the design as well as the plants chosen by Susan. They used some of our existing plants as well as new ones. We wanted color for butterflies and hummingbirds and boy did they deliver! We had some large trees that needed to be cut down as well as a Japanese Maple that needed to be transplanted. It was nice to see how they all worked together. They arrived when they said they would and cleaned up before they left everyday. We can honestly say that when we re-landscape our front yard we WILL NOT get two bids! We will phone Bill Hoot and his gang. They are true professionals.
Description of Work: Bill Hoot and his staff landscaped our backyard. We had an overgrown outdated landscape (done from another landscaper) and they made it absolutely beautiful! Wish I had a picture to show.
