Things did not go well at all. The pavers were used to ensure drainage, but the pavers installed actually facilitate the movement of water from the house patio to the pool... they do not drain well at all. Thus during a heavy rain, my pool fills with water from my pavement. The pavers look good when there is no rain. Part of the yard still does not drain well. Some parts of the yard remain soggy for days (sometimes weeks) after a hard or lengthy rain. All the leyland cypress trees they planted died. After a year of phoning, they finally returned, but did not work any grading issues, they just dropped off some new trees that I had to plant. Of course, due to the drainage issues they died as well. Envisioning the tiered gardens, all they did was stack natural rock about 9" high, and left the hard-pack clay in the garden topping it with a thin layer of topsoil and larger layer of mulch, thus I still need to fully dig out the garden if I want any plants to thrive. It is very difficult to plant anything in this garden. Stafford Nursuries subcontracted all the work, so my attempt to support local businesses was in vain. I have been able to talk to the young lead foreman that ran our project, but the owner of the nursery will not return my calls. Of course, I wish I could start all over again, but it is too late. I would strongly recommend finding another landscape company if you live in the Fredericksburg area.
Description of Work: Hired to landscape backyard after a swimming pool was installed by a different company. Service included regrading yard for drainage, installing two active drain pipes to take downspout and sump water away from the house, bringing in topsoil and resodding back yard. Also included installing pavers between two concrete surfaces near pool so that water would drain away. Including installing two natural stone tiered gardens and six leyland cypress trees as well as transplanting existing crepe myrtles.

Poor, would never use them again. EVERYTHING had to be replanted due to poor quality of install. If not redone all the plants would have died. I ordered specific colors and got nothing I ordered. The stone work all had to be redone. They are very expense and provide poor quality of service. When I requested the items be redone, they ignored me. I had paid in advance. never recommend and will never go back. I usually do not use the word "never" but in this case I mean it!
Description of Work: Provided their plants and their crew to plant and landscape yard.

The work Stafford Nursery Inc. did in my yard was good. I guess communication was probably the worst part, between their people and us. It took them awhile to get started. They had a lot of other business going on at the time.
Description of Work: They did some plantings and stonework pathways and a waterfall.

Description of Work: We had Stafford nursery build a flat-stone retaining wall several yaers ago. Gradually the wall tilted, more and more, then a large section keeled over. Months prior to the wall falling, we called to have them repair the wall given the severe tilt. They did not show for one appointment, then when they did show up, they denied improper installation of the wall. They then did admit to its improper installation, but refused to accept responsibility for restacking the wall. They wanted to charge us to fix their poorly constructed wall. Then the wall fell 7-18-2012, luckily no children were playing near the 3 foot high wall, as a 10 foot length fell forward. We called again. They said they would come by for an assessment 3 days later. Guess what? They never showed up nor called. We called back. They said the guy who made the appointment just got the flu. They would have him call us the next week. They then called and said they would not be able to stop by for another 2 and a half weeks. They offered no apology or explanation. My advice: Do not give your money to this unprofessional, substandard, unreliable "company". You will be left "holding the bag", and mad at yourselves for not heeding this advice. Vote with your feet. Good luck.

The challenge was that I have a 3 foot tall retaining wall that the shed would need to clear to get to it's final resting spot. The person who provided the estimate said, "it's no problem." They two guys delivering the shed did not agree. After 3.5 hours of manually wrestling the shed into place, they were sucessful. However, the shed is damaged in three places and after two phone calls, no one from Stafford Nursery has called me back to recitfy the problem. The quality of the shed seems good, but let me tell you, don't expect them to call you back, ever.... I've spent over 4 hours on the phone with them, first giving the specs of the shed (which were met nicely), but then trying to schedule delivery and now, trying to get delivery damage repaired. The were a very 'average' company to work with. The customer service wasn't a top priority, and it showed. I'd recommend you try somewhere else.he
Description of Work: Contracted Stafford Nursery to deliver a 10 x 14 foot shed to my backyard. They had the shed built by a company in Pennsylvania and it was delivered, eventually. It took almost two months from when I placed the order until they delivered the shed.
