Description of Work: The mason's work was down at a slow rate (5 months to do the parging of the basement "above ground" sections of the house), a 12' X 16' deck and two stone patios. The problems that did arise were taken care of in a timely manner. Late fall is now upon us and there are a few items that need to be addressed (the grass seed do not germinate, a stain on one part of the masonary wall needs cleaned and a stress crack on another masonary wall). Overall, their work is good and we would recommend them.

The job was scheduled to begin on Tuesday June 3rd. Not only did no one show up to start the work on Tuesday, but there was no notice whatsoever as to why the delay. The next day, Wednesday June 4th, was a gorgeous day, yet no one showed up that day either. Finally, Thursday afternoon, June 5th, the job was started and the contractor communicated that the work would continue on Friday June 6th. On Friday June 6th, no one showed up to complete the work and no one called or communicated via email to explain why. In the meantime, newly planted azaleas that were already in place before the job began had been dug up and their holes were left completely uncovered for the next several days, with no explanation. The following week, after posting a note on Landscape II's Facebook page indicating that that we were not at all happy with their lack of professionalism up to that point, the work resumed again and most of the job was completed. Much of what was done was done well, yet, unfortunately, bad dirt had been put down between the deck stairs and the stone foundation that was built, rather than a healthier soil. This went against our instructions given at the outset, as the wrong kind of dirt can produce less than desirable results, to say the least--and this is exactly what happened. Also, they neglected to put down grass seed in that area after putting down this inferior dirt and we actually had to call a week later to let them know that they had forgotten to do this. Not surprisingly, most of what grew over the next several weeks and beyond, between the deck stairs and the stone foundation, were many ugly weeds and very little healthy grass. The weeds have continued to spread and they look awful. Our backyard has always been very lush and well maintained, with few if any weeds, so this is the first time that so many weeds have grown within such a short space of time in an area that is normally free of them. The contractor has said that they will work on eliminating the weeds, but from what I can tell this has yet to be done. To make matters worse, the dogwood tree that was planted on the side of the house does not appear to be doing very well despite an ample amount of water and sunshine. Although much of the work completed for this landscaping project was done satisfactorily, there were numerous instances of blatant unprofessionalism with regard to the constant lack of communication on the part of the contractor and regarding areas of the property that were essentially ignored and where the use of cheaper, inferior products produced highly unattractive results. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend Landscape II for elaborate landscaping projects.
Description of Work: The job was to build up the soil foundation around the house, take up and remove old bushes and hostas, plant trees--including a dogwood tree--add rose bushes, add mulch to front, back, and to one side of the house, reinforce the foundation of the cellar/basement door, break down customized wooden deck cover and build a trellis from that material to compliment the area near the deck, build a stone foundation at the bottom of the deck approximately 3 feet from the stairs, and add healthy soil between the stone foundation and the deck stairs.

Did it all in two days. Removers and installers were friendly and kept us informed step-by-step. Tidied up when they were done. Our two cats were entertained as they watched the process through the windows. The new patio is the talk of the neighborhood. Aaron Village is a townhouse complex of about 50 units. Many of the unit owners dropped by to ask questions during the installation and many more have stopped us in our neighborhood walks to ask about Landscape II and our satisfaction with them. Great job by Landscape II and, best of all, we have a beautiful low-maintenance patio.
Description of Work: Removed an old wood flooring on the patio, changed patio slope to divert rain water away from the house, and rerouted the propane fireplace line. Installed new stone flooring on the patio.

It didn't. We wanted a clean chimney in preparation for selling our house and wanted to use a trusted provider, who did not respond to requests for service.
Description of Work: Nothing. Landscape II has cleaned my flue several times over the years. This year I got no service and repeated efforts to set up an appointment for a chimney cleaning were ignored. Very disappointing as the quality of service (when service is provided) is excellent.

The crew was great,,worked really quickly, but carefully. Damien made sure the new walkway was slanted away from the house. Lara helped us to place the plants we bought. It looks fantastic! So much better than it did before. I am proud to show off my house now!
Description of Work: Landscape II was great. Lara helped us by listening to what we wanted and then working up a sketch and proposal. We wanted native plants and she came up with some really good suggestions. We opted to buy the plants ourselves. The plants were on sale at many nurseries since it was fall and the plants from Landscape II I thought were expensive. We planted them ourselves which also saved money. We had pavers installed, a new asphalt driveway and vluesrone put over some existing concrete. They also set footers for a pergola which we will build in the spring. They also created some steps with boulders to make a passage to the side yard.

Though the work was done in stages they made everything work seamlessly with impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail. The design aspect was very creative and wonderfully integrated with the architecture of the home and ultimately gave a result that was more beautiful then we could have imagined at the outset. The price was very fair and in excellent agreement with estimates.
Description of Work: We remodeled a historic home in College Heights and worked with Landscape II to landscape the front, side lawns, and rear garden. We also had them do some very innovative decking that gets rave reviews from neighbors. Though the work was done in stages they made everything work seamlessly with impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail. The design aspect was very creative and wonderfully integrated with the architecture of the home and ultimately gave a result that was more beautiful then we could have imagined at the outset.

Overall the work result is beautiful but we have not received an itemized bill, only a request for an additional $10,000.00. Once this company starts your work they are very fast, but it may take a while to get on their schedule. We find them best suited to big special projects that you are willing to pay and wait for. Their creative designs are great.
