Lindsey Landscape & Design, Inc.

They did an excellent job. We've been using them for the last 25 years. They take care of making sure that we have lawn control and all of that kind of thing, that the bushes and trees are trimmed when they need it and pruned when they need it. They take care of the outside of our house, basically. They come sporadically; I mean they come when they need to come. I don't know if you're including the lawn care in with them; they're actually separate companies that they sub-contract, and also our gutters and the drainage of our property; we had some drainage problems which they did take care of that. They investigated what the problem was so that they could fix it and they did a very good job. The lawn service comes every week. Lindsey Landscaping themselves, it was probably a month or so ago, they did a lot of planting for us. They had to re-do a lot of our plantings because of the change in the environment; it became much more wet in general, much more wet. And also, we basically live in the woods so we don't have any light, so we need to get a lot of perennials that are shade-loving perennials. Our yard has changed completely since we moved. The whole time they have been working with us, they started with one thing and little by little they've moved to other things as the things they originally planted weren't doing well because the shade became more, so the plants weren't getting enough sun. And also, the trees were getting larger and taking more of the moisture and nutrients from the soil, so the grass was not growing well. It's been that kind of thing the whole time. It's maintenance but also realizing the changes that were happening and trying to deal with those things. So they come sporadically, like when things need to be done. They won't be coming for awhile now probably because all of the plantings are done for the Spring, so they probably won't come for a little while, until something else needs to be done. They know the schedules for things, which I don't. So fortunately, I don't have to keep track of it. They do excellent work. They're somewhat expensive, but I don't know because I don't have have any way to know what other people charge for the same thing. It seems expensive to me, but again, we don't have to worry about any of it, so it's priceless to me in other ways. We use them continuously. We know them, we know the work that they do, we know we can depend on them - if not exactly the day they say, they'll be there the next day. Sometimes things run over. I try not to be too picky about that kind of thing because they really don't need me for anything, so they can do what they are doing without my even being here. It's not really essential that they are here exactly when they say, so long as it's in a reasonable period of time and it is; it's within a day or so.

Clearly, the owner is extremely knowledgeable about landscaping, cares very much about the product, and has done lovely work at other houses in our neighborhood. We benefited from her ideas during our estimate. However, the price was 10-fold higher than competitors (although, I suspect that the work would have been outstanding). My really big issue is that she spray-painted permanent spray paint all over my property. Anything she didn't like in terms of trees, bushes, or just where changes would occur, were spray painted. It has never washed away - it has now been many, many months since she did this.. It's so bizarre, I can't quite believe it.

I have been using them for six years now. They did a fine job. They are very knowledgeable and professional.

Well- They maintain the yard each month. Sometimes they don't need to plant anything,so each month is a time is a little different.The charge is also dependent on the job.

Cathy Lindsey is superior to anyone I have ever used in the landscaping and design business. In an industry known for fly by night outfits Lindsey Landscaping and Design is a breath of fresh air. Cathy is the consummate professional.

They are professional. They are expensive but the work is always done right.

The subcontractors were people they work with all the time. We meet once a year to discuss what we want for the upcoming year. If there is anything imparticular that we want then they do that. I think they come once a month and inspect everything, clean up the yard and the plants as well as make sure everything is growing and doing well. We've been very happy with them, they are very receptive and interested in our ideas. They initially gave us a plan for how they wanted to develop the front and back of the and we worked with that. They've just been very competent.
