Landscaping reviews in Norfolk, Virginia

Great Company!

Great company!

Great service, very professional at a reasonable rate. If you need it done they're the one.

This Company is horrible. Incompetent at best. Do not use them.

Great company to work with. Completed my project ahead of schedule and it looked Fantastic.

Great company and a pleasure to work with for my project. Very reliable, competent, and efficient.

This company has done unethical practices including charging their clients for services they didn’t provide and will gaslight them when they inquire about it! This is one you do not want to do business with!

I live in a development where the HOA has contracted this company for our landscaping maintenance. They are not very consistent, the owner is rude and very unprofessional. They do NOT adhere to the services of our contract and do not appear to care how poorly our development is maintained. If you are thinking about doing business with them, think again!

CREEP alert. These guys were working on a project for my cousin and he wasn’t very happy with the work. He called the head guy over to have a talk. I was unfortunately left alone with him for a moment and things got super scary and creepy. My cousin said he would never use them again.

Fellow landscaper here. Horizon was clearing trees on city property and they posted up their chipper rig in a business lot for which I maintain. No big deal there, I understand the necessity for it. As the attached photos will show, they chose to leave a good portion of the rear parking lot riddled with chipper debris. What a disgusting lack of professional courtesy.

(Google is not allowing me to upload photos on this particular review)

Use another service! I work as a grounds crew in a major industrial chain in the area. Management contracted these guys and it has been a nightmare ever since. Horizon crew is lazy, late, and rude. We had to re-do most of their work. The owner is just a kid! Completely out of his depth. Not willing to accept constructive criticism at all. If you see these guys run!

if there business resembles how they drive on the highway, I wouldn't do business with this company. Truck 22, not only did you have a headlight out but you were driving erratically and riding the bumpers of all cars in front of you(not just mine). I find that when a company acts like this, it is only the beginning of the problems they will continue to have in the market they are in. I hope this isn't a representation of the management of Horizon.

It was nice.

Found everything I was looking for. And they were really friendly

Good variety of flowers & veg plants in season. Mulch, dirt, sand, fertilizer & garden tools on hand. Reasonable prices

The posted hours of operation are misleading. They open the garden dept. when and if they feel like it.

Very Creative Landscaping with plants and trees that thrive locally “Native “.

John Prince is a joke. His company installed the patio at the home we purchased, so I asked the previous owners for his contact information to expand the existing patio as it was small and seemingly unfinished. I reached out to John inquiring about him expanding and finishing the project to which he responds immediately with, "unfortunately I now have to charge a consult fee" as he is "in such high demand, and is more of an architect now". As a business owner myself, his response is laughable.
Doing business this way is a short term gain, John. Best of luck!

I've posted a photo of the patio to show of his less than desirable work, which shows a cement edge as if they ran out of slate stones to finish the job.

Update: I stumbled upon John's response to my honest review from two years ago and felt necessary to offer a response. John, your entire post regarding my factual review is filled with falsities and accusations. I was not rude, I was most certainly surprised. You were the original "designer" and installer of this incomplete patio. When I reached out to you, I was grateful to have found you as I could not get my hands on the original stone that was used, and I was looking to have the patio expanded (and COMPLETED). Upon answering, introducing myself and explaining who I was, how I received your number, and the scope of the project that I was interested in having you complete, your very first response to me was, and I remember it well because it was so off-putting: "Because I am more of a "designer now", I charge a consultation fee to come look at the project."
I recall how taken-aback I was because YOU WERE THE ORIGINAL DESIGNER. No one should know the project better than you, and I was planning to be a guaranteed customer.
Never did I raise my voice, or act entitled. I was certainly surprised, and confused by your unwillingness to help, but never was I rude. From the reading of your response, I hurt your ego as I questioned the way you do business, including photo evidence of the type of work you do- less than adequate. I will continue to stand on the fact that you are a poor businessman and hardscape designer, which shows in the fact that the only review you have is mine, followed by your combative and emotional response to my experience. If you were in such demand as you claimed, you would have dozens of reviews over the last two years :-/

Ian’s comment is completely absurd. What an odd meltdown. I don’t even know the guy. He called me demanding I give him a service for free. Yes, Ian, I do lots and lots of architectural work and yes, I am in demand. It’s impossible to service anyone by giving them a free service. Ian acted as if he was entitled to this, which was even more peculiar. He was so abrasive, loud and rude on the phone that I hung up on him after a 3 minute call.

Pro tip— when your client steers a design of a landscape to what they want, you do it and get paid for it. When the client is on a particularly tight patio budget and tells you what they want and you do it, that’s success. That’s called success and it made the client that formerly owned Ian’s house very happy. See the photos below.

People, beware angry, vindictive unhappy people looking for control over others. See the photos and weep, Ian. Yes, architectural work all the time for me, and my clients aren’t such tightwads that they’ll cry over the fees. But yelling at an experienced, successful and careful business owner AND then placing a review after a 3 minute call reeks of creepy and controlling behavior.

Cheers.

This group of amazing people were my life savers! I had a lawn service cancel on me last minute before a move out and they came through in a pinch. They cleared all the debris, mowed and trimmed before the movers even got started at 9:20. Fast, Efficient, Immaculate job and Friendly. If I was staying in the Hampton Roads area I would be a repeat customer.

Amazing company!! Basically they know what you need before you say a word! Very professional and courteous! On time and they get the job done with perfection! If you need anything done with your lawn or any other service they provide I highly recommend ABM!!!
