Report
I contacted Joe to manage 7 small landscape jobs in our yard. He came out provided quick estimate and we agreed on a price. then he mentioned it would be three months before he could get to us. We were told he may be able to "fit us in earlier" as he had other larger jobs in our neighborhood. We waited. Both my husband and I made 1 call each to confirm we were still on the calendar during the three month wait. It's been almost 5 months and not a single contact. I wish we had gone with a more reliable business from the beginning. Would definitely not recommend.

Report
Mr. Palmer was in no other words but EXCELLENT. I bought my home six years ago and had a project done each year. The last item on my list was to revamp my yard for the 1925 house bordered already by bamboo. If you have bamboo - you know nothing grows near it because it chokes out the light. I interviewed a few landscape architects and decided on Mr. Palmer. He provided me a complete list of options and worked with me thoroughly to meet my budget.
I had six guys working on my yard for four days straight. During the work, he kept me updated throughout the project and each time I came home from work I was amazed at the transformation. I would not have imagined the outcome, but I'm very pleased. The colors of the plants, palms, and coordinated stones are eye-catching and make you want to sit outside and admire it. My friends are begging for a porch party because of the pictures I posted on Facebook. I would recommend this company to everyone.
