Legends wasn't the least expensive bid nor were they the most. We went with them because of their excellent reviews on Angie's list and their ratings on other links. Their workers were always on time, polite and extremely hard working. Mike the owner and Shane the Supt. are very straight forward. Their office staff is very professional and Trichia did a very good job designing the final plans for our HOA 's approval. The quality of the plant and tree selections exceeded our expectations. They also provided top soil and fertilizer for the vegetation. Several of our neighbors were impressed with their quality and they decided to hire Legends.

Rental property had lawn issues exacerbated by absentee tenant and lawn needed to be replaced. There were low spots in the back yard that needed to be filled and exposed tree roots that needed to be covered. Because of a positive experience with sister company, Quality Curb, called Legends Landscaping to provide an estimate. I thought the price was reasonable so I went ahead with the job, without obtaining other quotes. Originally scheduled for about four weeks out, they were able to accelerate start in only two weeks, which I appreciated as was concerned about a potential early onset of cold weather. Work took three days and looks great. Job entailed modest but necessary border changes to backyard which necessitated replacement of existing lawn curbing. Crew did a fantastic clean up job. The foreman, was easy to work with and responsive. Would recommend.
Description of Work: Replaced sod front and back, added topsoil in back and replaced rear curbing in rear.

I gave them specific instructions of what to do but the workers that were sent did not speak any English or could not read the instructions in English. The piping that they installed wasn't done properly and burst. They repaired it but then the same thing happened again which flooded my front yard. When the pipe burst it sprayed water all over my freshly painted house. They used a blue glue in the repair which they got on my house and also dripped it all the way from my house across the pavers in my driveway to the street. They only took partial responsibility for the water bill due to their leak. The bill was $300 that month due to all the water from the burst pipes. They were prompt in their response when I complained.
Description of Work: Replaced irrigation pipe that was above ground.

Response from Legends Landscaping
Last year, Mr. [member name removed] initially contacted Legends Landscaping for an estimate to give to his insurance company for the repair/replacement of pavers in his driveway that he said had been damaged by lightning. When the estimator explained that the ruts in his pavers could not possibly have been caused by lightning, we were told that we were only to provide the estimate and it was up to the insurance company to decide the cause. He subsequently requested an estimate for repair/replacement of his irrigation because lightning had caused it to be fragile and non-functioning. An estimate was given to replace valves and wiring, and the project was requested and completed. At that time, Mr. [member name removed] left for a month. Upon his return, we received a call about a leak and a repair tech was dispatched to discover a fitting with a 450 psi rating had broken mysteriously. The mystery was due to the fact that the type of tape found on the area is not a type we ever use, suggesting that the pipe had been tampered/manipulated by others. None the less, we made the repairs at no charge to Mr. [member name removed]. Mr. [member name removed] requested reimbursement for two and a half times his water bill for the month and for repair/repainting of siding on the entire front side of his house that he claimed had been warped because of the water from the leak hitting it. When we contacted the painter who had done the recent exterior painting for Mr. [member name removed], we were told that the “warping” existed at the time he painted the house. Mike Schuhmacher., along with an independent home inspector, met with Mr. [member name removed] to further investigate the “damage”. The inspector said that the warping was apparent in other areas of the exterior of the home not affected by the water leak so it hadn’t been caused by water from the irrigation. At that time, Mr. [member name removed] became extremely agitated, screaming and using profanity and requested that Mike and the inspector leave his property. Shortly after that, Mr. [member name removed] began to send emails and text messages threatening to sue us. We received notification that Mr. [member name removed]had filed a complaint with the Nevada Contractor’s Board, and following a meeting with Mr. [member name removed] and Mike Schuhmacher, the investigator dismissed the complaint because he came to the same conclusion as the home inspector. The condition of the siding in the area of the leak was consistent with the siding all around the home, with normal imperfections expected with the type and age of the siding. After the contractor’s board dismissed the complaint, Legends, in an effort to create good will, sent Mr. [member name removed] a check in November 2014 to pay a portion of his water bill - calculated after researching his water use in the same time period of prior years. Mr. [member name removed] sent an email saying that the check would never be cashed and he would “delight” in filing additional claims in other jurisdictions. The check was ultimately cashed. It’s unfortunate but, despite our best efforts, we will never be able to make Mr. [member name removed] happy.

Best estimate from 4. Started on-time. Best and most professional team of workers we've had. Extremely professional, hardworking, respectful of our property. Always on-time. There cannot be enough praised heaped upon this crew! Owner of Legends came for walk-through. Answered all questions. Gave great advice, helpful hints, etc. Never once did we feel anything but that this was the most important job on their agenda. Wonderful company. I will absolutely use them again.

Unfortunately, for all the work they have done for us, I would rate them no better than average. We have had 7 landscapers provide varying amounts of work for us over the last 3 1/2 years (since buying our home). Yes, I am picky, but shouldn't we be when we're spending tens of thousands of dollars. We had a fabulous landscaper in CT and maybe we were spoiled by that experience. They set the bar for excellence and the closest we've come to come to replicating their work was with El Reyo Landscaping from Carson City (see their review). This review isn't based on Legends mistakes, but a combination of errors, lack of creativity and their designer's(?) limited knowledge. We didn't find Signature, All Seasons or SummerScape any better. Gail Willey's rep. was very nice, seemed knowledgeable and thorough, but never sent the quote.
Description of Work: Replaced two trees and other assorted small tasks.

The on site team did a great job - the front yard looked better than it did before. The crew were fast, courteous and polite and were done very quickly. The only drawback is that they are a pretty expensive service BUT you do get what you pay for.
Description of Work: They removed approximately 1430 square feet of 2" deep DG (decomposed granite) and replaced it with new DG. This was due to a wind storm smashing our solar panels and spreading shattered glass throughout our front lawn landscaping. They cleaned up all the rock areas removing all the glass they could find. They also pruned the bottom of the shrubs to gain access to all the glass and DG.

We contacted Legends, along with several other landscapers, in mid-February to discuss landscaping our backyard space, which was in dire need of help! After meeting with all of the landscapers and hearing their proposals and bids, we chose Legends to do the work. Although the bids were close in price, the Legends staff seemed to understand what we wanted and appeared easy to work with and very professional in the contacts we had with them. After approving the general plan and signing the contract, we were given a suggested plant list to review and modify if we chose. We then met with the estimator and job superintendent to discuss the plan, schedule and steps of the project. The project started at the end of March and was estimated to take 2-3 weeks. In the end, it took about 4, but that included a week of waiting for concrete to cure. The project included a large paver patio, new plantings, re-location of several existing shrubs, a new drip system and a concrete stairway, plus installation of bark and rock covering the ground. The project was primarily completed by 3 main workers, who were simply amazing! Professional, experienced, respectful, hard working, tidy - it was all good. The job superintendent checked in with the crew and with us at least twice a day, so we were able to communicate, ask questions and keep abreast of the schedule. Additional employees were brought in as needed for certain parts of the project, including pouring of the concrete staircase. The only slight hitch in the renovation came when there was a mixup in the plant order, but Legends was committed to giving us what we wanted, and took care of the problem in a professional and timely way. We couldn't have done this project ourselves, and we're very happy with our choice of Legends Landscaping to make our backyard space amazing! I would and will definitely recommend them to anyone who is seeking landscape work.

Mike Schumacker gave us a quote that was a little higher than a couple of other outfits, but I felt Mike was the most knowledgeable and honest when it came to what needed to be done. After we agreed on the price Mike stopped by the week before they planned to start with his foreman Shane to look the job over one more time to make sure we were on the same page. Shane showed up with his crew when he said he would and they worked diligently until the job was completed. Shane even re-ordered the block we used after I changed my mind on the type. The wall looks great and we plan on using Legends Landscaping for our backyard hardscaping next spring. Thanks Mike and your whole crew...

The team arrived on time, reviewed what needed to be done, and got to work. There was no time lost. When I had questions about how a future project, those questions were answered immediately. If I wanted more work to be done, that happened quickly and without complaint or comment. This was a great experience from beginning to end. These guys really know what they are doing and are very professional in working with customers.

The house we purchased was empty for 8 months and before that it was a rental for quit a while. The backyard was a complete mess. The devil vines and related goat heads had completely taken over. If you walked in the yard your shoes would end up covered in goat heads. Legends Landscaping came up with a zero landscape plan that solved the problem. They installed the work on schedule and within the original quote. The team that did the work were professional and completed the work with no problems. The yard,street and driveway was cleaned and you could not tell that they were here.

Legends Landscaping does a very nice job. This is the second project I have had them do and I am completely satisfied with both jobs. You have never seen a harder working crew. They go right to work and work tirelessly until it's done. Their work is very satisfactory and they always cleanup the area very nicely. The only drawback is they are very busy and it takes awhile for them to get to the job, but it's worth the wait. Call them early in the Spring if you have a project to get on their list.
Description of Work: Legends Landscaping removed 2 trees from my back yard and planted a smaller tree and 2 rose bushes.
