Hall's Landscaping was very responsive and one of their representative's came by to survey the work area in order to draw up an estimate. We walked the yard and I was impressed by the professionalism and knowledge of the representative. We were then sent an estimate and, because of expense, had to negotiate a cascading plan of work to space out the expense. Hall's was very flexible in this and understood the situation without being pushy. We then scheduled work and the work crew arrived when Hall's stated they would arrive. The crew was very friendly and got to work right away while I had to go to class. Upon my return I surveyed the work and was very impressed. The yard was cleaned up and mowed, and new mulch was placed exactly where expected. The quality of work has led me to continue my relationship with Hall's and I look forward to working with them again shortly.
Description of Work: Hall's Landscaping was asked to remove leaves and debris from our yard and to mulch around bushes and trees in our front yards. We first asked for an estimate to define the services to be done and then upon agreement by us, Hall's proceeded with performing the work. We asked for their services again as we were planning to space out the expense of sprucing up our entire yard.

Lou from Hall's Landscaping is extremely nice to work with. I used this service two years ago to freshen up my flower beds, cut back my overgrown shrubs, and rake out all of the sticks and leaves in my yard. They sent over a team of guys who all worked very hard to make my yard look fantastic. I was so happy with them that I sent an email to Lou again this year to work his magic. He responded to my email immediately, came over when I was at work to look at the yard, and sent me an estimate within two days. They are responsive, polite, and hard workers. I can't recommend them enough.
Description of Work: cut back shrubs, planted new shrubs, raked the yard, cut back bamboo, mulched
Hall's did a great job. They were competitively priced even before the 10% discount they offered. They worked around the rainy weather and only worked they were sure they wouldn't make a muddy mess. They took their time and did the job right. Every plant was trimmed properly according to the plant type and not just hacked back. They also offered some recommendations on contractors that did work they do not. They were professional, honest and a pleasure to work with.
Description of Work: Pulled weeds, removed overgrown bushes, dug up dead plants, removed brush, trimmed plants, mulched entire yard front and back, and installed a small rock garden.

My wife and I just moved into our new house, right in time for all the leaves to drop. Since we didn't want to deal with the stress of moving and immediate maintenance on our yard, we found Mr. Hall's company through Angie's List. He visited our house and after a quick polite and professional phone call his company took care of everything. Came home from work one day and found my front and back yard completely leaf free. I even discovered a stone walkway in my backyard I didn't know was there! Great work and an excellent company. Would recommend to anyone.

Mr. Hall was very responsive. He came out very quickly and provided and estimate. When i called to schedule the work they were able to come by the next day and perform the work. They came out when they said they would, did the work requested and left. they were very professional. It was a pleasure to be able to reach a real person, get a prompt estimate and be able to have the work done quickly and professionally. I would definitely use Hall Landscaping again!

Lou provided an estimate quickly and the work was started timely as well. The yard had become quite overgrown and we were pleased with how the trees and shrubs were shaped and trimmed. It makes a big difference in the appearance of the yard. Hall's responded to our inquiry and performed very good work in a timely and quality fashion.

Very professional. Prompt estimate. I asked if they could start earlier than expected and they accommodated me. At end of job, I added some extra work (cutting a huge holly down by half and pruning it w/ other shrubs in front) and they took on task without any problem. This is a family-owned/operated business. I met both brothers and father-in-law even chipped in to help. These guys are prompt, trustworthy, thorough and fairly reasonable. What more can you ask for??
Description of Work: Cleaned up huge overgrown mess on side and back of town house. Cut down trees, pulled up weeds that had become trees. After cleared, spread mulch and made it usable again.
Mr. Lou Heins and his team did excellent work on my front yard and back yard. He is very responsible for the work. He did a lot of work on removing ground covers, dying boxwood, junk plants, junk trees, and bushes, and installing fabric throughout garden beds. I am sorry for writing this late report because I was away from my home for a while. I hope Mr. Lou Heind and his team can work on my yard work next year.
Description of Work: Weed clean out, remove junk plants, leaves, trees, bushes. Create two small planting areas. Install landscaping fabric. and more.

Contacted them for a quote, got an immediate response, followed by an on-site visit and estimate. I collected a few other quotes and then went with them. Service was performed very quickly and looked great. They did a great job cleaning everything up as well, which was very much appreciated.

Generally, I was satisfied with work performed. However, it remains to be seen whether the new plants are hardy enough to survive this extreme summer heat.
Description of Work: Lou removed and replaced 7 bushes and trimmed another. Two bushes were large and had been severely damaged during the storms last winter. He also seeded and fertilized the small lawn in front of my town house. One of the planted bushes did not take, and he replaced it with a better plant as promised in the guarantee of work provided before work began.

Amazing work. Our front yard looks so much better without all the unruly ivy climbing all over. There are a few sprouts that pop up now and then, but it's nothing compared to what was there before. Will definitely be calling Hall's Landscaping again for any future yard work.
Description of Work: They removed all the ivy from our front and side yard, around our shrubs, from the sides and the entire area underneath the porch. Also mulched the ground after removal to discourage the ivy from coming back. Bonus: they trimmed and cleaned out our bushes to make it look even nicer!

This was a good experience from start to finish. The company was recommended by a friend because they do yard-work for her every year. They stopped by our house to look at what the job would entail and then provided a thorough quote. When they came to the house to do the job, there were four to five guys and all of them were very nice, polite, and hard-working. It was hot, but other than water breaks they didn't take any breaks at all. All of them appeared to be local Virginians (in other words, they didn't hire any day laborers to do the job). The job took longer than they planned so they had to come back a second day later in the week, but with all the work they had to do this wasn't a surprise to me or my wife. In the end, our backyard looked like a nature park and they cleaned up absolutely everything. They even asked us if there was anything else we wanted them to do. One of them even gave me some free tips on how to fix some problem areas with the lawn. Their price was true to quote, but they worked so hard and we were so happy with the job they did that we included an extra hundred dollars on the payment as a tip. One other detail for pet owners. We have two dogs and the entire crew was great with them. The workers were careful to close the gate whenever they left the yard, and they were all very friendly with our dogs and called them by name. I can easily recommend this company and will use them in the future.
Description of Work: They removed about 10 years of leaves, branches, sticks, logs, weeds and debris from my wooded backyard. The leaves alone were over 7 truckloads full which they hauled to the dump. They also removed a lot of old construction debris that was just throw in the backyard after the house was built. I recently bought my house, but according to neighbors the debris had been there for almost 20 years. In addition they found almost a full pallet of bricks under the leaves which they stacked neatly in the yard, and they also removed several small trees and saplings.

Yard recieved a lot of damage from winter, needed lots of work to fix and clean up damage and debris. Called late in spring after self help attempts to fix problems failed. Got work started right away due to the condition of the yard. Work went very smoothly, no problems encountered. No problems so far with mowing. They may not be the cheapest service around, but I got my money's worth.

Both projects went very well. Lou responds quickly. He came up with a plan and was willing to incorporate any ideas I had in the plan. The work was done on time and very well. I have used this company for two projects and will definitely use them again. Lou is also available for questions and consultations after the projects are done.
Description of Work: Last year we had this company remove several very large azaleas in the front of our house and replace with a variety of shrubs. This year we had another area cleaned out and replanted.

I emailed Hall's and Lou returned my email. He scheduled an appointment a week later, then 10 minutes before the 11am appoitment, he called to reschedule. Lost that day of work. Lou showed up for his second scheduled appointment, but looked like he had just finished a lawn/landscaping. There has been no contact from him, though I left messages, so I will move on. Hard to believe the rating on this web site. Complete waste of my time.

I picked Hall's from Angie's List. Contact was fast and easy via e-mails and some phone calls with Lou Heins. He suggested a number of options for the new planting, the final decision was made together. He purchased the plants, was prompt and on time for the arranged appointment. His brother Rob pruned the forsythias and rhododendron which needed special attention. Both, the planting and pruning were done to my total satisfaction. To top if off, Lou came by the to water the new shrubs the following week when I had to be out of town - he should get an extra A for that one.
Description of Work: Pruning of 9 forsythias, an overgrown hedge of rhododendron and planting of deer-resistant and shade loving shrubs/plants.

Went well. There were some false starts but you have to expect that with yard work in spring. Rainy days backed them up. But Lou did a very good job of communicating the situation via email. They were somewhat unconventional but did a beautiful job. Lou and his assistant just attacked the problems in the yard with some ferocity, cleaning up and redefining the beds. We are very happy with the results
Description of Work: Called them in to fix a bad job by Bay Country who I had previously employed. My yard is landscaped in a way that defined paths are necessary. But previous contractor planted grass where I didn't want it and there were gaps where grass should have been. They restored the beds and the paths to its intended look

Lou from Hall's did an excellent job overall. After the first job, we were a bit concerned that not enough seed was spread and are happy to report that Lou came out shortly thereafter to inspect the job and put down more seed in some spots. The second job was flawless, with a large number of pachysandra plants put down in a shady side yard. The plants look to be of high quality and appear to be doing well. While we sometimes had to wait a day or two for Lou to get back to us, he always did, and his responses were informative and helpful. We would definitely use Hall's again and feel confident in recommending them.
Description of Work: Hall's did two jobs for us: one was an aeration, fertilization, and overseeding job; the second was planting a large number of pachysandra plants on one side of our house.

Hall's Landscaping completely wasted my time. They came to my house to give me an estimate on removing grass and creating plant beds in my backyard. Lou showed up on time, but that was the last I heard form him. He said he would email me an estimate by the weekend - it never came. I followed up with a phone call the next week and never got a call back. I left work early to meet him at my house - thanks for nothing.

Please see the above comment. Angie's List overall experience section should include N/A for this type of experience. The "c" was input just so this report could be submitted and does not actually reflect any thoughts about the company. They get an A for quick response.

We scheduled a day for an estimate, and initially Lou wasn't able to make it, but promptly rescheduled and maintained contact with us. We walked through the entire perimeter of our property explaining what we would like, and Lou offered some suggestions, but was always amenable to our suggestions as well, and I liked the way he explained the benefits of planting certain types of shrubs/plants in certain areas. He always consulted us on what we preferred to ensure that we got what we wanted. His crew was also flexible when some other exterior work we had done was delayed, and Lou's staff came back on a third day to ensure all work was completed and so they weren't interfering with the other exterior work. The finished landscaping is wonderful, and we have received many compliments. I hope we can keep it looking as good for years to come.
Description of Work: Lou came out and walked the entire property with us as we explained what we wanted done and asked for suggestions. He provided us with a written estimate and we scheduled the landscaping. Hall's did a wonderful job, and we had them do quite a bit: remove bushes and replace, replant the front flower bed with azaleas and plantings to help with erosion problems, trimming back many other bushes and forsythias, planting ferns around a tree, planting several sky pencil trees to hide our exterior A/C units and generator, planting around our garden shed, edging the lawn to better define where the lawn ended and the woods started, mulching and other miscellaneous plantings. Initially Lou thought our rear lawn needed aeration, but he later concluded it was coming along well. He also provided grass seed for heavily shaded areas and provided us with a plan for long term care. I enjoyed his sense of humor and overall work ethic. They are a family business, and very conscientious and customer oriented.

They came this spring to update our landscaping. They took out some overgrown shrubs and replaced them. They edged the beds and weeded and put down muclh. We discussed options last fall. Lou was responsive to my concerns and was very knowledgeable about plants and what would look good. He had me looking on the internet at the plants to help me visualize what he was talking about. I am very happy with the results. Lou instructed me on the care of the new plants and if I have any questions he answers them. Lou even put down grass seed in areas we have had a hard time getting grass to grow with specific instructions for getting it to grow. We have them also for mowing and they keep the yard looking great. I have found them very knowledgeable and easy to work with.
Description of Work: took down overgrown shrubs, trimed shrubs, weeded, mulched, put down grass seed, there was a bare patch and they put down a small piece of sod
