Tony was very professional from the word go - his quote had everything broken out, and his price was competitive. He came and killed our existing "lawn" (weeds) himself, and then called about a week and a half later to schedule the sod installation which he was able to do earlier than we originally planned. His crew showed up on time on the day of installation and was friendly and professional - and ended up getting the entire job done in one day (we expected the sod to be done the following day). They did an excellent job installing the beds and sod and cleaned up after themselves. They paid attention to detail and even set our irrigation system to water according to the schedule they recommend for new sod. Excellent job!
Description of Work: We had Tony and his crew install Bermuda sod in our backyard - a 70' x 120' area, with mulch beds about 4' deep all along the perimeter. We also had several sprinkler heads moved and installed a new drip irrigation line in the new mulch beds.

He came out, provided an estimate, we want back and forth a few times, but we ultimately decided to do it ourselves (his estimate was right in line with everyone else's). Tony was very helpful, and we would definitely use him if we have other landscaping needs in the future.

Overall, I called Tony for questions and he sent over his foreman , Chris and gave me Chris number to call if any problems came about. Many time s any calls were ignored. After the maintainance contract was finished, we called for advice ignored again.Well, this year 2012 , we were in the process of putting on an addition to our house and we get a call from the town that we could not get a permit for this new work because the irrigation system had never been inspectied. I explained to the town that I did indeed pay for a meter and plumbing permit and for RPZ backflow certification inspection on 7/7/2010. The town told me there was nothing they could do. That I had to call the plumber and or Tony Norris and tell them that I was calling the state if they did not respond to me in 30 min. Well both the plumber and tTony Norris did respond. The plumber came right out, I guess he didn't want his license in jeapordy. The plumber said he had Never been in this neighborhood and that he was never called by Norris Lanscaping to certify the backflow. He had leant his license # to Tony to help me out. So in the end we found Tony Norris to be dishonest in his business practices. SO BEWARE!!!!!!
Description of Work: The project seemed to go fine and the irriagation system was working fine. However the grass in some areas was wrecked. TONY OWNWER HAD HIS MEN SEED IT. That was never discussed so we had to pay for sod to be put in where the irrigaion lines were put in. We paid for maintaince of the system. Often the irrigation heads did not work and we had to call to have them adjusted.

Response from Norris Landscaping Services Inc
The one part that is true about this statement is that we overlooked gettting the backflow certified. We tried numerous times to show the homeowner how to adjust heads but for some reason they just didnt understand and everytime a head got out of adjustment they would call. Our contract didnt cover coming out but 4 times a year. Since the plumber has to do the certification it is there job to follow up and get this certified. Utimately it is my job to make sure it was taken care of but as soon as she called we were out to correct the problem.

Tony came out for the estimate and spent time finding out exactly what we needed/wanted. He was prompt and gave good advice. His crew came and sprayed to kill the existing greenery (mostly weeds). After about 10 days, the crew came and removed the dead grass and weeds, dug the trenches, and laid the pipe. The company took care of paperwork, etc. required by the city. so the city crew did their part, the plumber did his part, and the inspection was done...all with no effort on our part. Then the crew arrived right on time on the day planned to connect the system and lay the sod. We left home with just dirt and returned to a fully sodded green lawn. We were given instructions as to how to operate the irrigation system and to care for the lawn.

When we contacted Tony of Norris Landscaping, he came over to assess our situation and gave us recommendations. We were considering other options, but decided to go with sod. Tony gave us a very fair bid for our 18,000 square feet of property. We had to wait several weeks to get it scheduled, but this worked out fine with us as the weather was not as warm as we would prefer anyhow. Once the process began, his staff was very particular at getting the lawn prepared properly. They spent a lot of time getting the yard properly graded and corrected some problem areas we had in the past. Tony was great about making sure we were satisfied with the installation and was quick to solve any questions we had. We are so pleased with the entire project. His employees were very detailed oriented and took a lot a pride in their work. It was all cleaned up when they left the property also. We would highly recommend Norris Landscaping.
Description of Work: We had about 18,000 square feet of compadre zoysia sod installed at our home. This required Tony and his team to kill the existing lawn, prepare the lawn by turning it up and also grading it. After the final grade they installed the sod.

Their services were very good. Tony is a nice guy and was very helpful.
Description of Work: They put souza down and did our lawn irrigation.
The front of my lot has several sections with the potential for grass, the largest of which is about 10x50 feet, but my many trees give enough shade that it's difficult for most grass to grow. It is mostly dry dirt dotted with weeds. Whenever I would mow the weeds, I kicked up clouds of dirt. Wanting a lawn but not having the tools or time to till, amend and seed, I called a professional. Tony is punctual and courteous. He started and finished when he said he would and did what he said he would. However, it is not clear to me how much experience he has with zenith. Seeding directions for zenith say to cover the seed with a light layer of dirt because it needs light to germinate. However, to retain moisture, Tony covered the seed with wheat straw, which was several inches thick in about 1/3 of the area. After watering the straw-covered area for 1 week, I had 2-inch high wheat growing across the area. After 4 weeks, I saw tiny blades of grass growing in the few areas where the wheat straw was sparse, while the wheat plants were getting to be nearly a foot high. At this point I decided to remove all the straw, which I did by raking and sucking up with the lawn mower. There was no grass growing under the wheat; in fact, much of the wheat straw was stuck to the dirt due to the watering. When I contacted Tony some 4 months later to ask how the situation would be resolved, he took no ownership of the problem. Now, nearly a year after the job was done, my yard is still a dustbowl when I mow.
Description of Work: Prepped soil with topsoil, lime and starter fertilizer; seeded zenith zoysia, covered with wheat straw. Put down pine straw around seeded areas. Widen a shallow ditch and put down stone for better draining during hard rains.

The member did contact me and asked if there was a warranty for the seeding we had done last summer. I told him that there was no warranty on seeding because heavy rains could wash it, winds could blow it, and birds can pick it up. Also if it is not watered correctly i could easily be replanting this several times. I told him it would take up to 3 years for a zoysia lawn to get established from seed and reccommended sodding instead of seeding. The zoysia doesn't start takingg off good to the second year and probably will have a decent lawn next year.

This member didn't get our name through Angie's List, but through the builder that constructed her house in 2008 and just recently posted this message. We did sign an irrigation contract with her and performed half of the contract. She owed us for a irrigation hot box that had to be installed since the builder would not pay for it. We got her the box and billed her. We never got reimbursed and ceased work from that point on.

This experience was a disappointment. Tony's reviews were excellent so I contacted him to give us an estimate for completely landscaping our backyard. We had an appointment to scope out the project, but he sent a young assistant instead. His assistant could not provide any useful advice and just said he would give Tony the measurements and Tony would send us a quote. We never received the quote.
Description of Work: No quote received so no work performed.

The job was perfomed in a timely manner. The trees were in good shape when planted and have done well since then in spite of the heat and lack of rain for the first several weeks. A couple of other landscapers have comented to me on what a good job was done with the trees. I am especially appreciative of Mr. Norris taking the time to help me select the best kind of tree for my purposes and then giving me good advice on how to care for them.
Description of Work: Advised me on location and type of trees to plant for a privacy screen beside our house. They provided information to help me with a homeowner association application. Once approval had been secured, they planted nine green giant abor vitae trees and told me how to take care of them in the heat.

Tony was prompt at providing the estimate and scheduling the work. I was pleased with the outcome.
Description of Work: Tony prepped and laid sod on the front lawn and a small strip on the back lawn. All beds were mulched. The back lawn was sprayed for weeds. I was very pleased and called him back to do another job which included prepping grounds and laying sod on a portion of the front yard that was previously a natural area. Also planted 5 miniature azaleas and transplanted 2 azaleas.
