Legacy Landscaping

Oct 2022

We contracted LL earlier this year which ended up having our three day landscaping project happen mid July. The initial conversation with Nick and planning was great - we did a walk through and talked about what we wanted and went back and forth on some plant recommendations for the estimate. Scheduling was ok - we had to push the project back as we had too much going on to July and then LL pushed it back twice due to other projects running over. One time we were notified the day they were supposed to start after arrival time that they would be coming another day. The work was pretty straightforward again with a walkthrough, marking of plants and objects and the men got to work in removal and cleanup. The crew is hardworking, efficient and polite.Our problem is that we are underwhelmed with the result. We were surprised at how tiny many of the plants were (4 inches sometimes) and that some plants were placed so close behind rocks or walls that they weren't visible. The work was done during a massive heat wave so half the plants got heat damage despite us keeping the soil wet. We were surprised LL never came back to check on the work or ask about it. When I mentioned to Nick that many plants were suffering he said they weren't getting enough water but then I showed pictures of their neighbor plants that were doing ok. Now it is October with daily watering and I feel frustrated because every time I look out it looks sparse and sick and our watering is pretty much to revive/bring back plants that just aren't growing. We had thriving vegetation before the work that was overgrowing and yet these plants do not seem happy here or maybe they were planted during such a hot week that they got too damaged. The team replanted a very full hydrangea from a sunny location to a shady location and it is now all brown and barely standing and we've spent months watering it to try to revive itThis was an 8k investment and we are working hard to keep everything from dying and get them back to a healthy state but I'm losing motivation since it looks so sparse and sick compared to what we had before. We never watered anything before this work except during the heat wave weeks for reference.

What an amazing experience. Very responsive, competitive price and most importantly, GREAT field crews. I've attached before and after picture for the hedge trimming work they did in my backyard. Very professional and friendly crews did an excellent job. 10 stars out of 5 stars!

Legacy landscaping installed new sod (with new soil), spread out a layer of compost mix top soil onto my landscaping, and refreshed my gravel walkway on the side of the house. Crew showed up on time, got straight to work and was able to complete the job by the end of the day. Since they increased the size of my lawn, they also updated the layout of my irrigation system. Everything was done to a high level of professionalism. Won't hesitate to have them come back next year to do some upkeep in the spring.
