TOM CAPERTON LANDSCAPE DESIGN

.

Arrived on time for estimate and to do work. Worked steadily all day. Spent a good but of extra time to make certain that sprinkler system was reaching all the planets. Cleaned away all cuttings . Garden is lovely!

I would recommend this company. He did good work.

We've been very happy with them, we've had them come out to spruce up the landscaping and they do a great job.

I like a lot of the design work Tom did. We have received compliments on the flower beds in front of our house. He initially estimated that the work would take 1-2 weeks, and it ended up taking over 2 months. Some of the plants he installed died, and when we called, he came back and replaced them. Some of the new ones survived, but he did not respond to our calls asking him to replace the ones that died again. Patches of sod also died, and he did not respond to our calls asking him to replace those either. We have consulted with another landscaper who told us that the dead plants and a sad-looking flower bed were in soil that was depleted and unable to support good plant growth. Tom had said that the soil was fine.

We both took off from our jobs to make the 5 p.m. appointment. Tom did not show. He called at 5:15 to say he was canceling the appointment because he was across town. It would have been nice to have learned of his conflict (or that he had no intention of coming or arriving on time) before taking time off from work.

Tom did a GREAT job. He came up with the initial design that was not what I had in mind initially, but he took the time to determine what would work and came up with an idea better than I had planned. Just let him know your goals and he will work with you. He was on time, courteous and his service level exceeded my expectations. I'm now looking for other projects he may be able to do b/c I know it will be done right.

The project went extremely well. The original estimate was a little over $4000 and covered removing old grass, spreading new soil, installing an irrigation system, and re-sodding. The area to be covered was a front yard plus side yards. Although the area is not huge, it was still a significant amount of work. A few years ago, I had several companies bid on installing an irrigation system only (no re-sodding or soil) and the estimates were around $4000 just for the system. Everything was done exactly as described and in a very timely manner. In the end, the actual price came out to be slightly lower than the original estimate. I would recommend this company to anyone who needs an irrigation system and/or landscaping.

To begin with, my yard looked as though it had been bombed after removal of an outbuilding. I asked several people to bid on the job. Tom was not only the lowest bidder; he had the most creative ideas and understood what I wanted, which was a garden that looked compatible with our 80-year old home. I couldn't be happier with everything: the work, the scheduling, the cleanup, and responsiveness. I didn't think I could afford a yard and a sprinkler system on our budget, and certainly not one so beautiful. Tom knows plants and what conditions they need to thrive.
