    Terrible customer service. Called to get a quote and before I could explain what I wanted they told me they don’t do projects under $1500.

    They've got the best prices on the largest shrubs. They're very helpful. I highly recommend them.

    They recently completed a leaf cleanup for me and did an excellent job. I’ve been using this company for over 25 years and am very happy with the work they do.

    Tried for over a year to schedule some low voltage stuff, called a number of times, but the owner would never call back to set anything up. They seemed really nice there but I felt that was unprofessional.

    Suzette was awesome to plan our landscaping with! The guys did an amazing job getting everything done. Our yard looks so good! I couldn't be happier!

    Suzette and Connie were very prompt in getting me a quote and site plan for my paver patio. The quote was accurate and the pricing very fair. Suzette was very timely in visiting the site and reviewing what I wanted and made very good suggestions.

    Had an meeting setup for this morning at 9:30 am. Both my wife and i took off work to meet them to discuss some work we would like done at our home. They called at 9:00 am the day of the meeting to tell us they could not make it. Then I asked if they even wanted our business answer was no. So they just wasted our time for something they knew they could not do and then waited to the last min to tell us they could not. I guess its a mixed blessing to not have even gotten involved with this company...very unprofessional!!

    Bob the owner is hands on and makes sure no one cuts corners. This man has been out working hard on our landscape ever since we hired his company. With his great ideas our backyard, the irrigation system, the design of our rock lines and more. Its amazing. Skip has been awesome and with his ideas of our new paver patio n his attention to detail.
    Our patio looks fantastic. Kevin has been incredible. Planting our Viking chokeberries, setting up our pool and getting our irrigation system set up and ready to go. An the rest of the crew has been magnificent in all their hard work in making our backyard be a treat for years to come.

    Overall an average job. The only real issue I have is that I EXPLICITLY told Bob that I wanted privacy in my front yard for all 4-seasons. He gave me seasonal bushes that shed its leaves. So, what does this mean? I have to spend more money in the spring, to transplant the non-private plants, and buy yet more plants to make what I wanted in the first place. Money was no problem, so I don't know why he skimped on it...well, yes I do (to make more). So with that, make sure you verify the plants on the quote. -Bob is a nice guy, just doesn't listen. (and, 3 stars because even though he missed my request, his crew was talented).

    Bob and his crew are Patio Whisperers!! Bob came out a year ago in the fall and over the winter created magical plans for a patio, deck and landscaping to replace a very old wooden deck!! Skip laid all the pavers and created two sitting walls. Then when the fence was up the landscaping and deck were done. (The deck was built by Mike and Ray of Mike Wood Construction). Our backyard was turned into a beautiful oasis!! Couldn’t be happier!!! Shades of Green Landscaping has done a lot of work for us but nothing so magical as this project!! Oh!! Did I say fast?? They are amazing!! Highly, highly recommend Shades of Green Landscaping and the whole crew!!!!

    Inconsistent for sure!!
    Shades of Green lawn fertilizer and grass seed works, but so does Scotts brand!
    For a small business, Bob and Connie are both inconsistent in communication, hours of operation, and nothing gets completed in a timely matter. If you have all the time in the world, you are not looking for immediate results, and are fine with unreturned phone calls as well as unstable hours of operation, then this is the place for you. Be prepared for Connie to be in several different moods each time you call. Be prepared for inconsistency in all areas and have zero expectations. I paid Bob in full, but true to the way you run your business, you lost the cash envelope with the balance in it that I gave you, according to Connie!

    We were excited to work with a local business. Bob seemed interested and knowledgeable about what we wanted, privacy trees in our backyard. That’s as far as it went. He never gave us a quote as he had promised and stopped returning calls. Basically ghosted us. Too bad. Would not recommend.

    Bob was very detailed and understood my vision of the walkway and firepit patio from the beginning. It turned out exactly as I wanted (and even better than I expected).

    A huge shout out to Skip, the foreman, who was an excellent communicator throughout the project. He was open to answering any of my questions at any time of the day or evening hours. He also checked in with me periodically to ensure the project was moving in the right direction.

    I had a wonderful experience from start to finish. I'm over the moon with my gorgeous new backyard oasis.

    The quality of work was far superior to any other service I have used! Extra care was evident and the work was done beautifully. I couldn't be happier and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND S & L

    Our yard has never looked better. This one man crew turned our patchy dried out mess into luscious green grass again, as well as maintained the mowing and does all the edging. He was professional on time and honest from the start. We were so impressed and officially our new weekly mowing service. Will recommend!
