When Lee came for the estimate, he brought his portfolio and was able to turn quickly to some options based on what I wanted. This was very convenient and helpful. It took a while to get on the schedule and it got pushed a couple times, though we realize this kind of work is often dictated by weather. A couple weeks ahead, I was told it would likely be the week of Oct 9. On Thurs Oct 5, I learned it would likely be Oct 10 but I'd be contacted on Mon Oct 9. On Mon evening, Lee texted saying barring rain on Tues, his guys would be coming Wed mid morning. After no sign of anyone around 11am on Wed, I texted Lee to inquire and he said his guys would be headed to me mid day. Just before 6pm, still no sign, I texted asking if it would be Thurs? Within half an hour, Lee texted and apologized, checked with his team, and replied that they hadn't finished up another project till 3pm and they'd be to my house about 8:30am on Thursday. They arrived Thurs morning Oct 12, at 7:15am! which caught us (and perhaps some neighbors) a little off guard. But the men (8!) got right to work and indeed it was completed in a day as Lee stated (they left at 4pm). They had to remove a fence post but returned everything to normal before leaving. They tilled, seeded, and added hay to the areas dug up by the equipment. My husband, who built the fence 17 years ago himself, was impressed that he wouldn't have known they'd removed a (cemented in) post. And they even added some mulch after digging the edge around some of our shrub and tree beds. We love the patio and the blending of the gray Porter pavers to our red brick path is just perfect. And my husband and I have already put together our new gazebo. Just waiting on the furniture to enjoy our new outdoor space.
Description of Work: We had a 22' diameter round patio installed in our backyard, with patio pavers, connecting to an existing brick path. We also had an edge dug around several shrub beds.

The work was completed two years ago and it has turned out exactly as Lee Bowman promised. We love our new yard and think the money well spent. It was not only necessary but also resulted in a safer and more enjoyable back yard.
Description of Work: We needed major regrading of our large back yard because it was washing away in heavy rains. Hardscape raised the lowest part of our yard by about three feet and built a retaining wall along the length of it. It was a huge project costing thousands, the most expensive property improvement we have made in 20 years of homeownership. We interviewed seven companies to get estimates and plans on how to best deal with the erosion problem. They all had different ideas of how to tackle the problem. Lee Bowman of Hardscape had the best plan at the best price. He was frequently on site checking on his men who were terrific workers. He responded to all of our concerns and was very professional. We highly recommend him and the company.

I spoke with them and they said that they don't work with wood. They only work with stone and paving. I need to go with a different company. They were very nice. He also gave a recommendation for a company to use.
Description of Work: I wanted a wood tiered deck adjoined with my current deck. So I purchased the deal for $499 for $1,000 Credit Toward Any Landscaping/Hardscaping Project.

They did excellent work. They did it very quickly .They got in and did great work and got out. There were no hassles and they did exactly what they said they were going to do. Everything went well. They were very quick in getting in and getting out and getting it all done correctly. They cleaned up more than I would have before they left.
Description of Work: I used Hardscape Concepts to excavate and install a paver terrace or patio including a built in fire pit a seat wall and coordinated the project with a deck builder.

Hardscape Concepts Inc gave us the best quote out of a couple of quotes that we recieved and he did a beautiful job. He was willing to work with us in terms of taking some of our ideas and turning them into reality and giving us the type of plants. We have refered him to a couple of our friends.
Description of Work: Hardscape Concepts Inc did our front walk area, he did a new paver front walk and then he also put in a new drainage to handle our water flow problems that we had on our road.

The original estimate was only for the courtyard and I accepted and the job started on time with a full crew of workmen. Much heavy equipment was brought in and the old wall was removed. Jackhammers removed large underground rock formations, underground drains were laid and the new foundation was poured. The underground drains were about 200' in length. The enclosed courtyard had two 5 foot high side walls and a 6 and 1/2 foot high rear wall. The walls were completed without incident and that job was completed to my satisfaction. Total wall length was about 127'. This was very difficult work as my courtyard sits on enormous rock formations. The estimate for landscaping was separate from the walls and I thought it was too high. We negotiated and came up with a solution that worked for me and this contract was completed around November 9, 2012. This contract included shrubbery, trees, river rock, large stepping stones and a cedar planter. After all work was completed, cleanup was extensive and the yard re-seeded and left in a better condition than when they started. All work was completed in a professional and timely fashion; the workmen and the company owner, Lee Bowman, were very responsive and easily accommodated changes on the fly. The owner handled all the various subs including brick layers, concrete pors, landscaping and heavy equipment. They were very easy to work with and it was obvious that they were intent on making me a happy customer. They succeeded and I would use them again in an instant.
Description of Work: Removed old collapsed retaining wall and then built an enclosed courtyard with 2 gates and underground drains. After this was completed, they returned and landscaped the interior of the courtyard with shrubbery, trees, river rock, large stepping stones and a cedar planter.
