Clearwater Landscape & Nursery

awesome . thorough and comprehensive.

The design of the landscaping area was very nice, however execution was not. Planting was not supervised and the workers barely buried plants in the ground leaving roots mostly above ground just covered by mulch. The result. Many plants did not survive winter. Numerous phone calls to the company resulted in Ben?s visit and email telling me that the plants are not covered by warranty. Overall ? good concept but very poor execution and bed customer service. Not recommended.

Dave Goetze arrived on time. I thought he showed great concern for what my husband and I wanted regarding a new patio for the front of our home and new landscaping ideas. He took pictures of the front of our house and did some measuring. I had read other reviews about Clearwater and had a gut feeling they wouldn't follow through. My home is within 5 miles of this company this was another reason I had picked them. I waited 2 weeks for a follow-up call and decided to email Dave on 9-25-2013. Today is 10-11-2013 and I have not had an email or a callback. I understand I am not the only client but, how long does one wait to get a callback. I have decided after waiting almost 5 weeks to hear back from Clearwater I will move on.

My husband and I contracted Clearwater Landscaping to plant 8 Green Giant Arborvitae trees as screening between our house and our neighbor's house. A couple of months later we contacted Clearwater to ask about the health of our Green Giant trees since we noticed that the trees were not fanning out as we thought that they should and we also noticed some browning out in spots on the trees. A Clearwater rep came out to look at the trees and was a bit rude in the way that he told us that the browning was being caused by deer and suggested that we invest in deer fencing. Never once did he indicate that the trees were not Green Giants. Several years later we hired a different landscaper to do some work for us who was puzzled why we had planted Emerald Arborvite trees between us and our neighbors since this was not a typical use for this type of tree. We were shocked and greatly disturbed to learn that Clearwater had given us a different type of tree other than the type for which we had contracted. Since the year warrantee had expired by the time we learned that they had sold us the wrong trees, we did not contact Clearwater about this nor will we EVER do business with them again!

Couldn't get them to respond. Never hired them.

Absolute quality from start to finish; this company provided us a gorgeous and creative presentation of landscaping options for our side and backyard. We opted to use them because of their professionalism, horticultural knowledge, creativity in design, and competitiveness in pricing. Because they grow their plants and trees on site, there is no middleman involved which would cause an inflated cost estimate. We love our new plantings throughout our yard and look forward to using this company when we install hardscaping.

What I like about them is that they show up when they say. They do the job. They are very pleasant and they are also very knowledgeable. They answer all the questions I have about the landscaping of our yard even though we are not using them for landscaping, my husband likes to that himself. They are very accommodating. They are very nice. They definitely know the business. I thought the price was very reasonable. I like that how knowledgeable they are and their willingness to answer any kind of question you have even if it is not about exactly what they are there for. They also showed up who to use the system, so we could operate it better on our own.

Initially the bid was more than we wanted to spend but the sales agent worked with us in bringing the prices down. We had to do some of the initial prep work, but we were willing to do that. We set a start date and they were here promptly. The work was completed in 2 days. The sales agent was very responsive and always answered our questions. She was great. We definitely will use them again.

We decided to wait on the hardscape, but moved forward with the landscaping and irrigation system. The process went very smoothly. We had an issue with some of the sod laid - it wasn't in great shape Day 1 and even though they (like most all landscape companies) do not guarantee sod they promptly replaced it. Our salesperson (Angela) was great; she was a little slow to respond sometimes, but never too bad and only because she was extremely busy. The project manager (Jamie) has to be one of the best in the business. The designer (David) did not seem to understand what type of plants we liked (he kept proposing cottage style plantings and we wanted something more formal), but patiently worked with us until we got it right. We have since hired them to maintain our landscape.

Angela was outstanding and worked with us through multiple iterations of the design. The final design was perfect. The pavers themselves were not laid as well as they could have been. There are some slight high spots and low spots, not related to the intended grading and slope. The steps also have several and quot;wobblyand quot; pavers. However, I may be the only person that will notice these imperfections.

They did a good job we were very happy with them.

I liked it. They did a very fine and professional job. I give them high marks.

Interviewed several companies for an estimate on an extensive landscape project to cost approx 100K. Most provided estimates with some degree of detail free of charge. One company did provide a very detailed plan with numerous sketches but did not leave it with us since there was no fee or contract. Clearwater charged a fee for a design plan that was to include a site analysis, prep base plan, prep and presentation of concept plan and detailed final plan with specific materials, plant species and grading information.The presentation consisted of an explanation of the sketch and work suggested but no written details. I am not sure what we paid for, but expected a more involved plan for the $500.00 than a sketch and an estimate for each phase of the project with a very limited description.Needless to say we did not select this company to do the project and would certainly not recommend them. Extremely disappointing experience considering their high ratings.

We have a large condominium and they do the planting, mulching, and integrated pest management. They are also doing some fertilizing and pruning.
