Flower Child Landscape Design & Home Repair Serv.

We've been working with Flower Child Landscape for 4-5 years now. They do all our mowing, pruning and planting. Chuck Miller is very reliable and responsive to our needs. He loves what he does and takes pride in his work. Our yard looks beautiful and we receive many compliments.

Chuck is a real pleasure to do business with. His demeanor is relaxed. His cost is very reasonable. My job was delayed by weather and a conflict with another job I had a different service contractor perform. Chuck was very flexible. My deck has a complicated rail design which caused the required work to be quite tedious. After he had provided a proposed cost, based on my plan to mask and tape the rail to keep stain from getting on the metal spindles, I disassembled the rail because it was less work for me. It also made the job easier for him. I was not trying to reduce his cost to me, but simply trying to avoid the hassle of masking and taping the rail for myself. He reduced his cost to me - a very fair thing for him to do - without my asking. I doubt that many service contractors in northern Virginia would have done the same. Thee quality of his work is excellent and I will ask Chuck to do more work for me in the near future.

Chuck was very responsive and friendly by email. I asked about services and he stopped by the next day to give me an estimate. He set up a date the next weekend to do the work and then ended up finishing it a day ahead of schedule! His prices were very fair, work was just as expected and what we asked. We will definitely keep Flower Child on top of our list of service providers and will recommend him to family, friends and neighbors.

It went well. He fixed the chair and trimmed the tree back a bit. He is punctual, courteous, and fair.

We moved into our home nearly 8 months ago and had completely neglected our lawn/landscaping due to multiple personal issues that distracted us from home maintenance. The lawn needed general cleanup, shrubs and small trees were growing without ever having been trimmed, the mailbox post had clearly previously been broken and screwed back together, there was bamboo growing in one corner of the back yard that we feared would eventually take over the yard, there were two large platforms in the back yard (w assumed from sheds that were no longer there), there was a small brush pile in another corner of the back yard...it was all just messy and too overwhelming for us to try to handle ourselves. I contacted Chuck and explained that all we wanted to do for now was clean everything up to make the exterior of our home more presentable. Due to the amount of work e needed, especially with all the shrubs and small trees we wanted removed, I was afraid it was going to be an expensive job. Chuck's quote was lower than I expected, and he also offered some helpful suggestions we hadn't thought of (for example, we had mulch beds that reached the house, which is not good due to moisture being near the siding, so he recommended a small stretch of white stone up against the house to separate the mulch from the home). The final cost did end up being higher than the initial estimate, but Chuck notified me of this as soon as he knew he would have to exceed his original estimated hours to complete the work. I appreciated the heads up as opposed to just getting hit with a higher figure come invoice time. Instead, he had kept me well informed, and the final invoice, though higher than the initial estimate, was still a bit lower than I'd expected for all the work he'd done. In the end, I'm no longer too embarrassed by the exterior of my home to have guests over! Everything looks clean and refreshed, even though winter is on its way, a time when most yards look tired and await springtime for revival.

Chuck does excellent work.

Consecutive years of blizzards and ice storms destroyed tree in front of townhouse so I sort of let the yard go. Had business card from meeting Flower Child while he was performing other work in neighborhood. Chuck came out immediately, provided suggestions for re-landscaping front yard, Estimate was emailed within a day and work was performed almost immediately (within a few days). Would hire company again without any reservations.

We were very happy with the services.

He was responsive and very fair on price. He didn't really have siding experience and did an okay job except did not hide wires I asked him to hide. He later fixed this but they were still all bunched up in one area. I think it took him a lot longer to do the job since he wasn't familiar with siding and he spent a long time trying to work an issue with a siding piece that didn't match but didn't just show me the options, one of which was fine and could have saved time.

Chuck is a real conscientious and hard working guy and is probably a great choice for handyman services, but the landscaping and re-seeding of our lawn just did not work out.

From the initial phone call to the finished projects everything was completed in an outstanding manner. You will be pleased if you use this company.

Chuck was very responsive and professional from my first phone call until the job was completed in 2 days. He showed up when he said he would and worked with speed and efficiency. I like that he specializes in 2 areas where I could use a lot of help, and I am very pleased with the results.

Overall great experience. will definitely use again.

Excellent. There's not a better handyman that I know of and I've used many for various projects over the years.

The removal of wallpaper was a lot harder than I thought, but I was thankful to work with such a conpetant service.

I was selling my home and needed repairs, updating, and landscaping done. I was traveling for work and not home so I needed someone who was to come and go without supervision and who was able to communicate to me through email. He came over and walked through the home and the yard with me as I described my concerns. He made suggestions of his own as well -- some of which I liked and added to the list. He gave me an estimate and then a final bill. He did a great job. He worked well with the realtor as well. He has also done previous work for me, including - painting, wainscoting.
