Description of Work: Re-landscaped front area of home. Removed all older, overgrown shrubs and ground stumps, designed and machine edged new planting bed and installed new plant materials (boxwoods, gardenia and perennials). Also installed weedblock material and mulch on entire area. It really added curb appeal to my home. I am very happy with the design, their installation and clean up was top-notch! I definitely would use their services in future and highly recommend.

Description of Work: Too many items to cover...Just that being my first landscaping and usage of an company to do the work. I was lucky to get the best landscaping company in the whole state of VA. Responsiveness to us in scheduling, planning, the professional attitude of thier employee and quality of work was outstanding. The company rep keep us updated on everything from helping to pick out color for flower to setting up the trees.. I recieved a great service for my money. and To ensure everything ran on track and on time as well as answering any question I may have. I was given phone numbers to thier office, the mangers number and the lead individual running the work team. If there was a rating above A I would score them A+++

The company cleaned up all the leaves in the yard and mulch area. They also trimmed the trees and bushes. They removed a shrub that I did not ask them to remove however. Thankfully I wasn't too attached to the plant but I found it odd that they would pull it without permission. While edging the lawn, they cut through some of the electrical wiring and sprinkler heads. They were very prompt about fixing it which was appreciated. It did take a few visits to get everything fixed. All the staff was very polite and professional. I would use them again. The only reason I wouldn't use them again is because they are on the other side of the city. They told me they charged a fee to get to my house in Midlothian.
Description of Work: We needed leaf removal, tree/hedge trimming, minor landscaping help and MAJOR help with a sprinkler system that we had not used since we bought the house in 2007. According to our realtor, the previous owner didn't use it either.

They did most of the work between early December through early January. They were very attentive to our needs and what we were doing. Darrell is the fellow we are working with. He laid out what they could do for us. The weather has been an issue on when they could come. The foreman talked to me every day about what they were doing. They were exceptional about keeping me involved and gave me choices as they were working. The workers were all very cooperative and polite. They did good work. We had planned to have everything done before Christmas but the snow and cold weather wouldn't let them finish until January. They showed us various designs of the pavers even though we had picked out ones. They were attentive to our needs and the end design was really better than we could have hoped it would be. We got several bids and they were cheaper than one bid and more expensive than another. There was not a significant difference in any of the prices but we felt that they were going to do what we wanted done.
Description of Work: We are still using Ed's Landscaping & Garden Center because of the winter weather. They did some nature landscaping during the winter months and they are waiting until spring to do the garden part of it. We have a driveway alongside of the house and they replaced a cinderblock retaining wall that was disintegrating at the end of the driveway and one side. They replaced it with 8x8 timbers. It was a major digging up of the yard. They also dug old an old sidewalk and put in a new sidewalk with pavers.

They did a good job and I was happy with them. They'd come to the house to look at the land, provided a very positive service, were pleasant to work with, provided the service they promised and cleaned up well afterward.
Description of Work: I had them remove some plants and plant new. They had prepared a plan for me as well.

It has transformed the backyard to something that we can now enjoy.
Description of Work: Juli Michaels from Ed's developed a landscape plan for our backyard that was easy to maintain and did not include any grass to mow. This plan included a number of preparation steps (removal of tree stumps, and old junglegym) before the actual plantings.

Ed's Landscaping came through for me when another company suddenly canceled on me last May 2008. They first came out and consulted with me on the design plan I already had sketched out. We finalized a plan together and they give me an estimate very quickly. They were very open to working with my ideas, and worked me into their schedule as fast as they could. They were very responsive when I changed my mind and wanted to revise the plan at one point. Their prices were very reasonable, a little lower than some other companies I had consulted with. When they came out to do the work, they did high quality work, and were prompt and responsive in all interactions. I had some follow-up questions after the work was done, and telephoned their company, and they moved one of the shrubs at my request for no extra charge. I also had some questions about the drip irrigation and the irrigation guy came out for an extra visit and consulted with me on a few key points which was extremely helpful. They always answered telephone calls and e-mails promptly. I was very satisfied.
Description of Work: They consulted on a design plan, delivered 5 cu yds of compost and 5 cu yds of topsoil and 20 cu yds of mulch, re-graded a rocky slope while working in the topsoil and compost, established an edging around a large shrub bed, provided requested plants, planted 46 shrubs(half of which they provided and half of which I already had purchased)and installed drip irrigation for all new shrubs. We decided to spread the mulch out ourselves to save money.

Their designer was extremely responsive from the start. We had another company come out as well and provide an estimate, and Ed's had already completed the work by the time we even received the estimate from the other company. They were very easy to work with, gave us some great suggestions for our front yard, and completed the work very quickly. My only complaint was that the actual plantings were smaller than I had anticipated and there was some miscommunication with the size of the beds in the front yard - causing some additional removal of grass that has still not grown back. Besides those two things, however, they did a great job.
Description of Work: Ed's Landscaping sent a designer out for an initial consultation; we told him that we were looking for ivy removal in the front yard, as well as new landscaping. In the backyard, they suggested creating a border between the ivy beds and the yard to create a cleaner look. They then emailed us a mock-up of a design idea for the front, we went out and met with them to look at the proposed plantings, we negotiated the price, and they came out shortly thereafter and completed the work.

I was pleased with the landscaping and design work this company did for me. They are small and more localized but they do a good job and the prices are pretty decent. I would call them again for any landscaping I intend to have done. I walked away from my experience with them feeling pleased.
Description of Work: Ed's assessed my planting needs. They then planted a wide variety of bushes around my property with the layout they picked and designed.

I think what I liked most of all was the price. They were cheaper then most everyone I called and they did an excellent job. They showed up on time and got right to work. There were a few places that I wanted done a specific way and they did it perfectly. I will definitely use them if I ever need any landscaping again.
Description of Work: I had them plant 40 various shrubs, sod the entire front yard and install a 12 zone irrigation system in the back yard. They also did a little bit of gravel work and mulch.

I am so excited I found Ed's Landscaping and Garden Center. While I live in Richmond I have still have driven to Mechanicsville to purchase my plants from them. The prices are very, very good and the service is excellent. (I have seriously compared prices and they are very competitive, and with their shrubs and perennials, even cheaper than some home improvement stores and for surely cheaper thatn other garden centers). Their plant quality is great! Juli did a great job with her design, even if I had a challending shade/sun situation in my matching garden beds. She kept my budget in mind and didn't go overboard suggesting super expensive plants. She gave me tons of good advice. After my first two beds, I went back and Juli helped me design yet another bed. I can't wait to continue working with them to make my garden beautiful.
Description of Work: The designer (Juli) designed some of my new flower beds, keeping in mind my desire of using some of the existing plants. (This was done free since I brought the measurements to the store). You can also bring a picture. I then purchased the plants at their Garden Center.
