They do all my landscaping; they mow the grass, they do all my flowers. They do lawn maintenance. We have a contract with them. They're awesome. I would absolutely use them again; we're contracted with them.

TCL called me 15 minutes after our scheduled appointment time to say they were running late. I understand things happen and am not concerned they were late, but a heads up in advance would have been nice instead of waiting until after they were supposed to be there to let me know. Was very courteous and professional when they arrived. I explained all the work I wanted done and gave my budget. I was assured that all services could be performed within that budget, save for the retaining wall (as expected), and was promised a quote within a few days. The fact that they even gave me a quote at all is the only thing preventing me from giving them an F, because it took two weeks and multiple follow-ups on my end to get a response. I have to imagine they simply didn't want to do the job, because the quote appeared to be something they whipped up in 5 minutes and was not in budget anyway. I was sent 2 renderings of possible plant ideas (which did look very nice) the day before the quote was sent. I was never given any options on these plants, but me saying I liked the renderings was apparently taken as approval, as the quote I later received stated the plants were "per approved design". The quote completely ignored one of the four beds, did not account for a tree I asked to have moved, included only a single plant for 150+ sq ft in another bed, did not account for fixing the discussed drainage issues, didn't include the lawn reseeding, and recommended a plant that requires full sun for placement in a heavily shaded bed. To top it off, it came in hundreds of dollars over budget, and that was for only half the work I requested. Perhaps my expectations were too high, but this was very disappointing considering I was assured that they could do what I asked within my price range when they were on site. In the end, my frustration lies in the constant over-promising and under-delivering. They didn't hit a single one of their promises, time or budget-wise. I understand I was not asking for an extensive yard remodel, and perhaps they didn't have the resources to allocate to such a small, relatively low-paying job. I would have much preferred they simply communicate that to me rather than string me along and price themselves out when they finally did respond. The account manager I worked with was friendly and seemed excited to do the work (unlike a couple other companies I talked to) when we first spoke, and I had really high hopes for TCL, but was left severely disappointed.
Description of Work: Replace builder installed plants in 4 flower beds, move 2 existing trees, fix drainage issues in 2 beds, potentially reseed some areas of the lawn where the sod didn't take, and provide a quote on a stepped retaining wall.

I explained to Rob my requests for a new landscape design. I had been in the retail florist business for 30 years and was looking for my new plantings to reflect that. Rob, masterfully came up with a to scale print out design. I was quite impressed with Rob's suggestions and ideas. Rob gave me exactly what I wanted and I am remain a satisfied customer. Thanks again Rob, GREAT JOB!

Robert Echols met with me to discuss plans for replanting the border around our yard. We decided on hollies and Hollywood junipers totaling 30 trees. He was very attentive and responded quickly to any questions I had as we waited for the planting to be done. The team arrived on the appointed day and worked steadily until work was complete - very professional. I also had them prune crepe myrtles and a large Japanese maple as well as transplant some plants. Robert also came back after planting to stake some of the trees after a few days of strong winds. I am very pleased with the service.

Pretty simple... 5 years of yard debris removed from back yard. completely filled up their dump truck (not a pickup) with fallen trees and organic matter that I had put into three large piles as close to the road as I could get it. There were three workers, including the owner, and myself helping the entire time. It took about two solid hours to fill their truck. The response time was excellent, the owner was 100% professional, they were friendly, courteous, and worked with no breaks until the job was completed. The job would have cost more had I not helped the entire time. The value was worth the price.

Robert was extremely responsive and professional. The crew did not meet my expectations. The backyard was bush hogged, but not removed which resulted in the vines coming back within a month. I had to redo most of the removal myself to get what I thought I was paying for here. A cable was cut in the front yard, which was fixed the next day, coordinated by the company, and no outage experienced by anyone. The people who killed the existing yard also killed part of my neighbors yard. No biggie, they got free sod, but I felt the installers ran low on the sod becaues it was laid very patchy (spaces in between, not tight). The sod was also not rolled, which in previous experiences seemed to be a standard thing. So, my weeds were gone for a month and my sod was installed, but no better than what my husband and I could have done ourselves for less money. Overall, I'm very pleased with the yard, but I would not use them again. The cost was too high for the quality of work received.
Description of Work: Cleared vines in backyard and installed pine straw. Sodded front yard (3 pallets) zoysia.

Response from Triangle Custom Landscaping
We are disappointed that we were not able to achieve an all A rating from you as we always strive to provide our customers with a great experience and final product. We are also disappointed that we were not given the opportunity to meet with the customer to get things right and completed in a way that was satisfactory. The day the projects were finished up, we followed up with this customer via email to make sure they were pleased with everything and to let us know if that had any questions about anything. The only response we got was an email asking where to send the final payment and thanking us for the work. There was no mention of any issues with the service. If the issues had been brought to our attention, we would certainly have done what we could to remedy any issues and wish we would have been given that chance. A couple of additional notes: -We cut down and sprayed the growth in the back yard which was what we thought had been agreed to along with adding pine straw to the natural area. We would have been happy to come out again and reapply Round Up if needed. -All utility lines were marked and an inactive line was cut which was not marked, resulting in no damage or loss of power. Thanks for taking the time to read our reviews!

The did a great job remulching the beds and cutting back weeds. However I was particularly wanting the beds around the house re-edged and thought they would be doing that with an edging machine. I didn't get the nice little edging trench around the beds, but he did take off what he charged me for what was minimal shovel edging around parts I of the beds. I will have to hire someone else to re-edge the beds. Nice hardworking crew, though.

We apologize for the issue with the bed edging. There was a miscommunication in regards to how the customer wanted the beds edged and what service we were able to provide. Since we were not able to deliver the service in a way that satisfied the customer, we were happy to remove that charge from the final invoice. We are glad that you were pleased with the mulching.

We normally do our own yard work but had to call in someone this year. After reading the Angies List reviews, I contacted Robert Echols about doing our project. The project was delayed due to the crazy weather we have had this winter and I was always notified about delays. Communication was excellent before, during and after the project. Once they came out, I have never seen folks work so meticulously, quickly, carefully and politely. They went above and beyond to make sure our yard was neat and tidy from beginning to end. Questions were asked if needed. Care was taken with my late mother's heirloom plants, other transplants and plants in beds to be mulched. They did an excellent job removing all the ivy, a truck's worth, a bear of a job we couldn't have done as well ourselves. They even put garden statues back better than I could have. No time was wasted. These guys worked steadily in the rain. And finished up the project in less than a day. Excellent work. The best workers we have ever had on any house projects!
Description of Work: TLC did a project for us involving removing 20 years growth of ivy from beds and tree trunks, transplanting a few heirloom plants and mulching all the beds in the front and back yards.

I still use them. They charged $43 for 1.9 acres. They are very good. They all show up. There have been occasions because of weather that they do not show up on schedule date, but they take it up later on in the week. The one great thing about them is the only way they seem to be able bill me is via paper check which is kind of antiquated in my mind. They had been fine with their communication with me. Normally, it is e-mail exchanges and if I ask them to do something, I get a response back very quickly.

Everything went well except one miscommunication. There was mulch around the base of the tree and it was easy to see the difference between the mulch and the bare ground. But the young man doing the job began covering the mulch with the good top soil. If I had not been periodically watching, he wound have covered it all with the mulch and seeded it. He said he thought he was following the right directions from his boss.
Description of Work: There was an area in my back yard (approx. 24' x 24') that was a play area and was completely bare. A lot of roots were showing from a tree. The plan was to aureate the area spread some top soil, mostly over the roots then tapper out to cover the rest. Lastly, seed the area.

As far as what he performed he did well. The pine straw was laid very well. I just wished he would have done what I wanted him to do. It would have been nice.
Description of Work: He put down pine straw. but i wanted him to clean up the weeds then put the pine straw down. I wanted him to clean up my yard and pull weeds. But instead he sent another man out and all he did was lay pine straw on top of everything. And he was supposed to cut a tree down that was really tall. And then when I contacted him he said that is not what he is supposed to do. When I asked him to come out and do the type of work he says that he performs he wouldnt come back out. He said " I just perfer you go to someone else".

We met with this client who was interested in freshening up some of the beds in her yard and we discussed a simple pine straw installation which was agreed to. I sent the client a formal estimate that listed the delivery and installation of pine straw. Nothing else was included in the estimate such as bed clean up, cutting back of shrubs or trees, or any other services. All of these would have been billed separately. The estimate was agreed to by the customer and she sent her deposit in. Upon receiving the deposit, we quickly scheduled the project and I went out with one of my employees to show him the beds that needed to be done and to make sure he was clear on expectations. This was a small project and one employee was all that was needed. He began the installation and in the meantime the customer came home and began asking him to complete other projects, none of which had been included on the estimate. He politely let her know that the pine straw was all he had been told to do and called me to let me know of the situation and to let me know that the customer seemed somewhat confrontational about everything. I told the emplyoee to finish up the pine straw job and that I would discuss things with the customer. I spoke with the customer via telephone and she continued to be confrontational, asking about a list of other projects that she wanted done, none of which were originally discussed on the estimate that was agreed to. She then asked if we would be willing to come back out to do the additional projects at a later date and I decided that based on the interactions we had on this project, it would be best to find someone else to complete those. We are glad that she was pleased with the look of the pine straw installation and double checked our notes from the initial meeting we had and the estimate that was provided to make sure we completed the projects that were agreed upon and it is clear that we did. If the customer had been more understanding and open to our explanation, we would have been happy to provide additional services, but based on the way things played out, we thought it was best for her to find someone else in the future.

Working with Triangle Custom Landscaping not only was super easy but the job was done perfectly. I was worried since we had just planted 15 small shrubs which could of easily been buried in the mulch, but they took the time and care to make sure each was nicely and gently mulched. The mulch is beautiful and we will continue to use Triangle Custom Landscaping for all our mulching and landscaping needs in the future :)
