Description of Work: General landscaping including installation of new shrubs, addition of mulch in existing beds and creation of new beds and addition of more gravel to existing gravel driveway. I remain extremely pleased with the work and the responsiveness of the company, especially Justin. This was the only company that answered my questions timely and offered suggestions when I asked. Both Justin and Andy gave tips for how to best maintain the new shrubs. I also wanted a new maintenance and mowing provider and while the Sharper Cut does not do that, Justin did give me a couple of suggestions. I settled on one of those companies and have been quite pleased with it since service began approx. 2-3 months ago.

Description of Work: Landscaped plantings front bed, mulched, built brick walkway, laid woodchips and timbers both sides of residence to prevent runoff, established grass in bare areas. Most plants survived the winter, I love the brick entrance walkway. Chips holding well. I do wish I lived closer to their business and that they could check their handiwork now. I have been able to keep up so far with feeding and applying mulch this spring.
