The landscaper was supposed to provide a plan and quote for landscaping and installing an irrigation system for our new home. I followed up a week after our meeting but never received either.

Response from L G Scott Landscaping & Tree Service
Mrs. [Member Name Removed], I apologize for the wait on your estimate. Our company has had to make some adjustments due to the COVID-19 virus. Luke, who you met with, has had to be out in the field more than he normally is which has delayed your estimate. Again, I apologize for the delay in your estimate and hope you understand that under normal circumstances, you would not have had to wait this long.

Excellent service and execution. Very happy with the results.
Description of Work: I had a large tree that was leaning and needed to come down. I called L.G. Scott Landscaping and he came over right away and quoted me a price and a timeframe. The work was done in little over a week at a reasonable price. I also requested that the stump grinding. All the work was efficiently and beautifully done.

We have been working with LG Scott for a month now and are extremely pleased thus far. We are first time homeowners and have not had much experience in caring for a lawn. Our rep Carl has been nothing but helpful, kind and courteous since we first engaged their services. He came out to the property to walk us through the current landscaping and help us understand the plants we have and how best to care for them. He also even walked us through our sprinkler system and how to locate each of our zones. His staff has incredibly prompt and has even been able to come out same day to clear our driveway ahead of company arriving in town. We would highly recommend their services!
Description of Work: We were looking for year around lawn care service, including weekly mowing visits, leaf/branch removal and turf maintenance.

They communicated well through out the process, arrived on schedule, got the work done on time, were very professional (even after a neighbor parked in front of their trailer) and I would recommend them in a heart-beat to anyone who needs landscaping done on their yard.
Description of Work: I had Scott's Landscaping bring in topsoil and smooth-out/grade the back yard and hydroseed. Install and bury a gutter run-off pipe all the way across the backyard. They also put in a mulch bed and bushes along the property-line. They seeded and aerated the front yard and trimmed up some way overgrown hollies.

The Scott brothers and their crew transformed our back yard from a ragged muddy mess into a beautiful, relaxing place to garden, grill, entertain, and just sit and watch the butterflies and birds. They rescued a large section of our yard which had been devastated by the uprooting of a huge 100+ year old oak tree during Hurricane Irene. The loss of the large tree and several crepe myrtles and a hedge of holly shrubs left us with a barren desert which eroded downslope, washing soil onto our long, wide sidewalk which connects our house to the detached garage and dogs' kennel. We didn't know exactly what we wanted, we just told them that we wanted a retaining wall that would be attractive and stop the erosion problem, and maybe a fire pit too. They designed and installed an extensive underground system of trenches with drainage pipes, brought in new soil to fill in and level the area, and best of all, built a decorative block retaining wall and fire pit. They built into the wall two sets of steps leading from the sidewalk and garage (which we use as a and quot;party houseand quot;) up to the lawn and the fire pit. The wall has a flat stone top so that it provides seating along its entire length. It has totally transformed our yard and home. Drainage problem solved, new sunny space for vegetables and flowers, and a great spot for cookouts and campfires. Luke and Larkin and their crew were as non-intrusive as possible given the nature of the job. They left the worksite neat, and cleared everything off the sidewalk before they left every day so we could get down to the garage and kennel and do what we needed to do without having to climb over a lot of equipment and piles of dirt and block. It was fun to come home each afternoon and see the progress. It was completed in about one week, and we were enjoying our new back yard and the fire pit the next weekend. Now it's over a year later...The grass has grown in, crepe myrtles are getting taller, flowers and vegetables along the borders are thriving, and our dogs and cats enjoy napping in the level, sunny spot. Everyone who sees the yard loves it. Downside? The job was much more expensive than the other estimates we got. But we had seen the Scotts' display at the Maymont Home and Garden show and my husband was so impressed with the way the block walls were designed, he talked me into going with them in spite of the cost, which at first gave me sticker shock. Now that it's all done, I'm so glad we didn't settle for a less expensive and quot;cinder blockand quot; retaining wall. Next: We plan to call them back to design some hardscaping for our front yard!
Description of Work: Landscaped back yard area which had been damaged by downed trees and erosion during Hurricane Irene. Work included topsoil, grading, underground drainage system, construction of block retaining wall with two sets of steps and a large fire pit.

I had all of the front yard trees pruned. These trees have been neglicted for years, so they were in rough shape. LG Scott came out and gave an estimate, he knew more about what I needed to do and not do than I did so I pretty much let him do what he thought was needed. His crew showed up as promised the trees look good and the clean up was fantastic not os much as a leaf or a gum ball when they were done. Good job all around. I highly reccommend them
