Description of Work: I hired the company to do any kind of landscaping I need as far as mowing, edging, and leaf blowing. Once or twice a year they send out a crew for a seasonal cleanup. They recently overseeded and aerated the lawn. I have been using the company for about 3 years. The lawn has never looked better. They have all of the right equipment to handle the lawn work we need done. The staff is very efficient and very hard workers. They will not stop working until the job is done. A crew of three came out recently to mow and completed the job in about 35 minutes. Renaldo, David, Donald have been out for the annual cleanups and he has been excellent to work with. They have had very little turnover in staff over the last 3 years. They are very professional landscapers and can handle any size project. They can even do huge commercial work with the staff and equipment they have. I really appreciate their personal touch on my service even though I do not have a very large project.

Description of Work: I hired Secure Turf to do some landscaping. They planted three magnolia trees, several hydrangea plants, moved a dogwood tree and created some mulch beds for me. Only one of the magnolia trees has done well and I had the hydrangeas dead within one week. I called them to voice my concern about the health of the plants and they told me it would improve. I know a dead plant when I see it. They did finally come back and acknowledge that the hydrangea was dead and replaced it. No better! Here's the worst part. They charged me more than $1200.00 than the estimate! This is largely my fault as I didn't get the estimate in writing. I understand how naive and not very business savvy that was. The man that came and gave me my estimate was named David. The owner, Mr. Ryan Ray, told me that he no longer works there. When I called to resolve the estimate I was told that there was nothing that could be done. Pay the bill or have my credit ruined. I paid. For years now I have been driving up my driveway looking at that area of my property in total disgust! Mr. Ray emailed me to try and resolve my displeasure only offering to spread some mulch or dress up the area so as to make it look nice again. He told me that in these tough economic times he would not be able to refund me the difference in the estimate. Again, more than $1200.00. Apparently tough economic times only exist at Secure Turf. With so many choices in landscape companies I implore you to choose anyone but Secure Turf. To summarize, poor plant quality, outright lying about pricing and insulting a customers knowledge about the health of plants. Avoid Secure Turf.

Response from Secure Turf - Charlotte Landscaping Experts
Its been over 5 years since our repeated attempts to remedy his issues, have been refused or had any contact with him. We regret that his experience with our firm was less than desirable. As he mentioned above, the manager that corresponded with him at that time is no longer with our firm and it is difficult now to go back and ask questions about what was expected and what was promised to this customer, etc. We did ask if there were things we could do or plants we could replace for him to remedy the situation, nearly 5 years later, but were told only a refund would do. If there has ever been a problem with our services or performance we always explore a reasonable and amicable remedy for any issue, in this case he was not willing to consider any alternatives. With 5 years passed since the date of his installation we cannot simply write a check for an amount that only he considers fair. We sincerely wish he had considered our repeated offers to repair the landscaping in question or allow us to complete any other landscape work throughout his yard that he may have wanted. We offered, even after 5 years, and were more than willing to provide him with services that would far exceed $1200 if he would like and were refused. As always we wish him only success in his landscape endeavors going forward.
