Meadows Farms Landscaping

Contacted the designer via email, using the email address on the business card I was handed at the store. I received no response (more than a month ago). I followed up by requesting a quote via Angie's List (more than two weeks ago). Again, I received no response. I called and left a message for the designer and was told he'd call back later that afternoon--that was a week ago and I've gotten no response.

I have been a well satisfied customer of Meadows Farms Nurseries/Landscaping for a number of years, and I continue to be so. Robert Monastra and his crew did a terrific job taking my overgrown side area and making it look terrific. They did a great job! As always, I highly recommend Meadows Farms Nurseries to anyone who needs landscaping help.

NEVER received a call back after I scheduled them to come and look at my yard.

Unfortunate Outcome to a very expensive, over $40,000 Rehabilitation of a pool stone patio area and stone steps into the pool. Hazardous placement of stones created Trip risks, Crumbling and unsightly concrete work from day one, and uneven Placement of stone step into the pool Without Proper leveling that throws the person entering off balance. Installation of an Unsightly and non functioning half of a French drain that was then later removed. Numerous phone calls went on answered,Numerous emails and photos were provided and meadows farms did a site visit and agreed to fix some of these items. This was never done. Over 2 years of constant Requesting including Letters to the owners. NEVER again! This company does not have the competence To provide this kind of work.

Communication, service, workmanship and product were poor. They only placed a 1 inch layer of mulch. The rocks were fist size. The rocks were not neatly placed. I have large rocks littering my yard. My lawnmower is at risk of being broken. We were told that some one would be out sometime to pick up the rocks. The cost was over $4,000.00. Out yard is medium to small size. We are NOT happy and will not recommend them!

Terrible, absolutely terrible. Unprofessional and sloppy work and craftsmanship. Delays, work not done or completed, work not done properly. Charged for items not done or completed. Charged for labor that was not performed. Beware of the company!!!!

A Meadows Farms landscape designer drew plans for several areas of our yard, including the installation of many trees and shrubs and the installation of a low stone retaining wall. It has now been a number of years, and, as the trees and shrubs grow, we keep seeing that many were placed in inappropriate places (too close to the corner so they block street signs, too close together in other areas so some trees are now barely visible to us). It all looked quite nice when the trees and shrubs were installed, but we can only conclude that Meadows Farms wanted to sell as many trees and shrubs as possible. As for the low retaining wall, a mason recently told us that the stones are shifting so much because the wall was not aligned properly; also, there was no barrier behind it to prevent the soil from pushing in. We would definitely not choose them again or recommend them to anyone.

Very easy to schedule and beautiful job. Lille is amazing, professional

This was scheduled for 11-9-18. Designer came out, spent about 20 minutes walking around our home. He said he would email me his plans. Never heard back from him. Finally got a text this week saying he owes me a drawing, can he send it to me? Of course I said yes. Received it the next day. So disappointed! Such an unprofessional presentation, sketch looks like something an amateur would do. No key to understand what was proposed. I communicated this to him this morning. He said he understood and wanted to know if I wanted him to call to explain. It shouldn't require a call (which I don't have time for!). This does not reflect well on Meadows!

They were excellent and showed up on time. They gave great advice on how to care for the plants. I would definitely use them again.

Meadows was supposed to show up in the morning. They called the the same morning of the appointment to say that they won’t be there due to a “staffing meeting”. This type of unprofessionalism is not acceptable especially when you are hiring someone under a $10,000 annual contract to take care of your property.

Those guys do a really good job on my annual lawn maintenance, trees and shrubs. They do good work and leave the receipt in the door. I would really highly recommend them and continue to use them.

This is not a bad deal... if you get the right landscape design professional which I did not. Not once did my guy ask me what I was looking to do for my front yard. He was more interested in a drain pipe in my backyard which he firmly believes was for a sump pump but after owning my property for over 18 years I can tell you I do not have a sump pump. Then he moved on to talk about where his daughter lives in Loudoun Co. I don't care. Since he didn't ask me about my ideas I told him I was looking for grouping of plants and he said "no perennials. I'm going to do shrubs." I don't like shrubs. One month went by and I didn't hear from him. I emailed him to get an ETA on my design (intentionally emailed to have a track record), He called, left me a vmail and when we finally connected he called me elusive b/c I had not gotten back to him within 24hrs. I hadn't heard from him in a month and he calls me out for not getting back to him in 24 hrs. I eventually got my design... It was a handwritten drawing of my property which looked like a 2nd grader drew. I was expecting a CAD or the very least Visio or PowerPoint with an outfitter such as Meadows Farms,. Final quote: $4K for 2 plots that total to less than 400 sq ft - townhouse front yard (he also provided an alternative design for $8K). I was very clear at the beginning: looking to upgrade my FRONT yard to have some curb appeal and not looking to spend a lot of money. If I'm spending $29 for a design that's a pretty good indicator I'm not looking to spend a whole lot but at least get some good ideas. Overall, this has the potential to be a good deal. If you get Barry Perlow as your designer... call Meadows Farms and request someone else. Meadows Farms lost a sale because Barry Perlow was my designer.

Should have used better or thicker or 2 layers of the weed preventive material laid before planting. Far too many weeds are growing and I have to pull weeds in an area that I wanted no more maintenance.

Our landscaper designer was great but we could never get the workers out here. We left a 50% deposit in May. The work was suppose to be done in June. They changed the appt numerous times. Then there was a call to cancel one morning it was forecasted rain(didn't rain until evening that day). Then the next attempt to come their truck broke down. A week later they attempted to come again. Suppose to be here at 9. I tried to call different numbers I had to no avail. Final called the landscaper designer and shortly after that the manager called and told me the truck broke down again. By this time it was noon. I think they knew they weren't going to make it way before then. The manager said he would call next week to reschedule--well we just want our money back and we will go with someone else. Very disappointing for a major company in our area.

Everything was completed on time and as planned/scheduled for the agreed price. The crew's arrival was slightly delayed by traffic, but they called to let us know and assure us they were on the way and would still be able to complete the project as planned. After arrival the project lead reviewed the plan with me and walked me through the sequence of work. The team worked steadily and completed the project the same day as promised. Great job on all counts. This was the 3d project they have done for us and we will definitely use them again in the future.

Fantastic job. patio and retaining wall looks amazing. They arrived on time and dug out for the patio and made it look so easy. Everything was hauled away and cleaned up before they left.

Kristen went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with the final work product. The company also added some plants and bark to complete the project after the crew finished In order to match the design. Love my yard now!

So I contacted Meadow Farms to get an estimate on getting my flower beds overhauled. Someone came out while I was at work, performed the estimate, and left me a slip with the estimated price and what would be included for that price. I tried several times to contact them through their grounds maintenance department. One time while I was at work I did receive a voice mail from someone. I kept trying to call back to respond to the voicemail but was never successful. The last message I left was asking them to give me a call so we could schedule the work. I never received a call back. I noticed my neighbor had some work done on his yard so I asked for the company name and contact information. The company was Meadow Farms. I emailed the contact person directly in hopes of getting a better response. This person emailed me back telling that to go through the grounds maintenance department which is the department that I couldn't get a response from in the first place. Needless to say I still have two flower beds and a yard that need work.

I contacted Meadows Farms twice but received no response. I used the online form on their website to describe the estimate I needed. When I didn't hear from anyone, I called and was directed into someone's voice mail. I left a message and still have not been contacted. We will be giving our money to someone else.

Very well. a past tree stump ended up being in the way but the crew came up with another idea that looked equally good. All plants and trees took and bloomed and grew

They created the bed and planted just fine. but two or three of the plants they planted were bad from the beginning and after about a week looked like they'd been fried or hit by lighting. the others were all fine and thriving. I asked them to replant two of the bad ones and they sent someone out to look at them, while i was at work. THey left a note that everything looked fine, just keep watering. They were not fine, those plants were sickly and then of course, died. I was very irritated the person had pretended they looked fine when they didn't. I felt like i had not been heard. I had planned to have them do mulch as an additional thing but after that, I cancelled that. I would not have them again.

Excellent designer; worked with me to stay within budget; planting crew was on time, polite, worked diligently and did a very good job.

We used them before and they're on time with the delivery. They were professional in the service that they provided. They aren't cheap. I would probably use them again, I've used them several times.

They're very nice. There was one worker that came out. They come out about 7 times a year.
