River's Edge Landscapes

unknown

Carol Snow and River?s Edge have done great work for us for almost ten years now. When we first moved to Delaplane, we asked River?s Edge to design our gardens and hardscape. Carol was wonderful, listening to us and working with us throughout the project. Over the years, we have enjoyed watching our gardens mature and taken great pleasure in our walks, steps and especially our wonderful waterfall and pond. Each year, River?s Edge returns to help us with mulching and spring cleaning and each year, our landscape responds beautifully. If you are looking for a company that is responsive to the customer, delivers what is promised and provides excellent value, we feel that River?s Edge cannot be beat.

Carol Snow was the landscape architect and did an excellent job of listening to our needs and wants. She prepared a detailed layout for us of a large expansive deck, screened in porch and stone patio, with trees and shrubs and stone wall surrounds for the gas grill, along with a sitting area for the fire pit. The plans were exactly what we were looking for. She also improved on previous plans purchased from another firm that didn't follow through with us. We made some minor changes on her original plans, and she accommodated us and gave us exactly what we wanted. We are looking forward to a continuing working relationship with River's Edge in the Spring.

They are the very, very best.

Carol was highly responsive and professional. She's obviously knowledgeable and did a great job of understanding what I wanted--even the quirky parts. She delivered a first draft and walked me through it, showing pictures to illustrate the concepts and plantings. The final plan came a week later. It includes multiple patios and walkways, fencing, driveway work, woodland paths, a secret garden, fenced-in area for washing dogs and letting them run, privacy screens, and of course all the plantings. She also provided a detailed estimate of each part of the project--a several page and quot;menuand quot;--that I can use to prioritize how I want to tackle this project. I am very pleased with the value of the design service and will definitely use River's Edge Landscapes in the future.

I liked the proposal but the cost was prohibitive. We decided to use a different landscaper that was less expensive. While we did not use this company, they were professional to deal with, gave a thoughtful proposal, were just to expensive for our budget.

Paul La Pointe came out and listened carefully to my wishes and my questions and took the lead, as I asked him to, in designing gardens that would be easy to take care of. His crew worked hard to accomplish it and I never had a complaint about timeliness. They finished the job promptly and I am thrilled after all this time with the work that they did.

She was really nice to work with and it was a positive experience. Carol was very good but we decided to put the project on hold due to circumstances that happened after I contacted her. So we didn't even get into cost or an estimate or anything like that. I do think they are high-end but they have done some nice work here in town. It's one of those things where you get what you pay for.

I spent around $3000 on their services. Their price was very good. I definitely plan to use their services again in the future. They did a very good job.
