Anthem Landscape & Design

After around a year and a half since Anthem Landcape did our backyard, I'm ready to leave a review.

They were pleasant to work with at first and their drafts for the backyard looked wonderful. To their credit, the yard looked amazing after they were done. it was all dust before. There was a new border with flowering plants, a small lawn with stones dividing it from the decomposed granite, flagstone area with stepping stones, and planter bed for veggies that was once just a bunch of rocks bordering the house.

3 months after completion, I was digging in the new planter bed where the rocks used to me. I dug maybe 6 inches and was hitting large rocks. So i contacted them and one of the brothers told me "oh, you paid us to remove the smaller rocks but not the big ones". What?? When I say "please remove all the rocks here because I want to use it as a veggie bed" that means all the rocks. Instead, they didn't remove all the rocks and just covered them with dirt which hid them. Also, during that spring and summer, weeds began sprouting all over the decomposed granite where the sprinklers get water on it. For the money we paid, I would expect tarp to have been laid under the decomposed granite so weeds don't constantly need to be pulled.

In summary, they seemed nice enough and the yard looked nice when they were done with it. However, as time passed it was clear that they cut corners. We paid 15K for the whole project which is not chump change and we'd expect nothing but quality work. Very disappointing. I wouldn't recommend this company to anyone sadly.

*Edit: Just had landscapers come to add lines to the main irrigation line that was supposed to be installed along the bed that had the rocks left in it. Turns out it was only installed in about 1/3 of the bed. So lazy.

I had new drip irrigation put in and a 30 ft raised flower bed in the backyard and all old shrubs removed. New shrubs placed.
They worked quickly and kept me involved throughout the time. I would definitely recommend Anthem Landscape and Design.

Efficient, professional, attention to detail. Great experience!
