About us

We are a LANDSCAPE DESIGN COMPANY. I have been doing Landscape Designs and installations of my designs in San Antonio & Surrounding areas since 1984. Yeah, that's a long time. But, I love it and my foreman says I can't retire until 2030, when his last girl gets outta high school. :) So...get it right on paper BEFORE any digging begins! 210.488.5321. Take a look at our BEFORE & AFTER PICTURES here: SALandscapes dot com. I will personally meet with you & spend as much time as necessary going over what you would like to do and what your options are. I have a massive portfolio of before & after pictures, on my laptop, that we can reference on our first visit to help you with ideas. We will then design your landscape either by hand, or by CAD. This is to make sure we like everything on paper "before" any digging begins. I'm amazed at how many landscapers skip, or pay little attention to this process. This is where we spend most of our time. This is also why I only do 1 appointment per day between 9am and 3pm. They can take some time. If this is done right, the actual installation is so much easier and smoother...and I have the best Landscaping Crew in San Antonio. Period. :) Folks, this is fun and I love doing this. I want you to have as much fun and love it as much as I do. Thank you, I look forward to working with you! - Steve

Description of Work: While we wanted a low maintenance flowering xeriscape plan with advise on a drought tolerant grass, he wanted to sell us a water sprinkler system that his friend owned and gave a bush plan. We asked if he owned a sprinkler system for his yard and he said no and that they were nothing but trouble. So my question is since we never asked for a sprinkler system, why give us the sales pitch for a sprinker system and take up our consulting time and why hand us a landscape plan that did not contain adding or putting in xeriscape flowering plants? I was really disappointed.

Hi, Mrs. [removed member name]. I am sorry we did not give you what you wanted. However, I never got a chance to talk to you and spent an hour with your husband instead walking your property. I am looking at the design right now that I left with him (I always take pictures so I have a copy)...and there is not one "bush" in the design. We added a forrest pansy redbud, some chopped block to accentuate your beds and some wandering Jew to fill in the gaps of your existing Wandering Jew. No bushes at all. I do not think I've ever said "spinklers are too troublesome"...and then recommend them and give a sales pitch for them. I don't make a dime on Sprinkler systems. I only recommend them if you want some grass, want to keep it green and healthy and cannot hand water. Which is what your Husband expressed to me. I would be more than happy to come back out and redo the design, but I will need you available so you can tell me what you want. You can reach me anytime @ 488-5321

Description of Work: I purchased a deal for them to do a landscaping consultation with hand-drawn sketches. They've done well so far, but they haven't followed up with estimates or with the sketches.

Hi, Mrs. [Member name removed]. I left you a hand drawn sketch of the front yard landscaping you wanted to do. I do, however, take pictures of all the sketches I leave behind, just so I have a digital copy of the design in a file on my computer. I will send you a copy of it for your records. I also wrote on my notes that you were going to get someone to do the work for you and were just wanting ideas. However, we would be happy to provide you with a quote to do the work as well. I will send you a Copy of the design as well as a cost estimate to do the work. Thank you for your business! - Steve

Description of Work: Steve McLaughlin was very courteous and professional. He called to inform me when he was on his way. He told me he doesn't do the type of patio scaping I was looking for but gave me the name of a place to go. Because he doesn't do this, he said I should ask for a refund. His number is 210-488-5321.

Description of Work: arrived on schedule. Discussed what I would like to do with the front yard, then started drawing. As I expressed what I liked or didn't like about his plan, he changd it to something that would work for me in that particular spot. I have predominately shade and he was very knowledgable about what would work in guise conditions. He also made the plan fit into the City Services offer for cutting water requirements. I found him to be pleasant and professional. Great job with excellent results.

Description of Work: First the design. Steve took his time with us and went over everything from hardscape to plants. Left us with a terrific design and we scheduled the work. 6 days later Steve and his crew returned and turned our front yard into a mater piece. I don't think anything go have gone any better. What a wonderful experience!!!

Response from San Antonio Landscaping And Design
I believe this review is a little unfair, so I thought I should respond. I met with the customer and we discussed design ideas. I have over a page of notes I took during this discussion that I referenced the entire time I was designing their landscape. I also have over 20 pictures I took. I then started the design. Customer went into the hospital for a week (it was a planned visit) and I waited until he got out and was feeling comfortable, to set up a time to meet and go over the design. We set up the day and time to meet.... and then they cancelled our appointment. We then reset another day and time to meet, and again they cancelled our appointment. At this time, I knew something wasn't quite right, so I called and told them I would email the design to them instead., which I did. I immediately got an email back saying it was a horrible design and we would not need to meet to go over it. I was a little surprised at both the curtness of the email and that is was so bad. I spent a week on this and I've done a lot of designs. I really thought it was pretty nice...and still do. I've also landscaped 3 other houses on their street and designed and landscaped the Model Homes on their street 10 years ago. Anyway, I emailed them back saying I could change anything in the design they did not like. Changing things in designs is very commonplace and I do it all the time, it's par for the course. I am easy to work with and don't mind changing things at all. I did not get any response to the 2 emails offering to do this. I wasn't sure what was going on, but I knew something was wrong...so, I offered to refund them their money. They responded immediately, so I refunded the full amount of the design to them. I then gave them a couple of referrals of other landscapers I've known for decades and I know are reputable. Listening to what people want is probably the most important aspect of my job. Which is why I take quite a few notes in every meeting with customers, just so I have it on paper in case I forget...and I have all of these notes as well. Anyway, I'm not sure how I could have handled this any differently than I did. I honestly tried everything I knew to satisfy them, up to and including refunding their money and giving them some good referrels. I hope things worked out for them. - Steve
