These people were quick and very professional. We reached out to them and 2 days later they visited our home to know more about the project. We got in their schedule within a week. They were good at communicating, very up front and provided a reasonable quote for our project. We got new lawn sods and boxwood installed in our backyard and front yard. They arrived on time on the scheduled day. Finished all the work by 4 in the evening. Cleaned up very well after the job. They even planted our roses, cherry blossom tree and tulips which on request before they wrapped up. Overall we are a very happy customer.

I chose Vision Landscapes for all the wrong reasons. Local, minority owned, small business, and friendly business owner. Regrettably I fell for the gimmicks. It took me a while to write this review because at face value this business hits all the checkboxes and I personally know how challenging it can be to run a small business. I owe it to my neighbors, however, to provide an account of my experience. In summary, our landscaping project was 35% over budget, delayed, incomplete, and the workmanship was poor. This was despite all the time both my wife and I invested in being highly involved in the project. Each time I look at my backyard I get irritated at all the unfinished things we paid thousands for. Fence • Attempted to downgrade fence –We had an estate style fence. After conveniently forgetting what type of fence they removed days before, complaining that the contract didn’t specify the type of fence and asking for pictures proving the type of fence we previously had, they reluctantly agreed to build a comparable replacement. • Didn’t stain or seal the new fence. I’ll have to either do it myself or pay someone else to do this. • Incorrectly installed sod - New sod was installed right up to the fence meaning that the fence will prematurely rot because the grass was touching the fence. I can also see gaps in the grass where the different sections of sod were patched together. • Inadequate fence posts – Fence posts were directly installed into the concrete without post covers. Also, the concrete used on the posts should be above ground, so the posts don’t make direct contact with the ground. • Incomplete fence - We were supposed to have a pergola overhang on the fence that wasn’t completed. • Missing section of privacy lattice. The fence was supposed to have a privacy lattice, but this work wasn’t completed. • Gate:Door is noticeably uneven. The gap under the uneven part of the fence is large enough for my hand to fit underneath. Deck • Mismatched deck colors because selecting different colors would delay the project. • Railing –Incomplete with missing parts, poor workmanship, wrong materials(wooden 2x4s instead of cable railing), wooden lattice siding instead of facia. We purchased cable railing at our own cost, that was partly installed- two months later with several emails and text messages - and was done improperly. This work was never completed as they asked for more money. I have since completed the work myself. • Stairs –Facia only covered the front leaving the sides exposed. Defective materials • Retaining wall blocks were chipped – and when asked for replacements they only replaced a handful of blocks even though the manufacturer would have replaced them for free. Worksite • Unprofessional and unsafe worksite- At the end of each workday my yard was littered with garbage and tools scattered everywhere. We had to insist that they properly store their equipment, pickup their garbage and clean debris from the yard. What professional doesn’t clean after themselves, store their tools, and shelter them from the rain. • They didn’t order items on time, kept making mistakes, regularly leave the job the site early, refused to fix issues insisting that there was an extra charge to redo things correctly. Transplanted trees • Several trees and bushes were incorrectly transplanted. One mid-size tree toppled over a few weeks after they left the job site. These are just a few of the many issues we encountered with Vision Landscapes. I’d advise getting a neutral third party to review their work and withholding final payment until they address all the major issues. Best of luck.

James and his crew were great to work with. They did a great job and gave my house the facelift it needed. I just had the trim painted and the front facing. I love it. Very easy process. Will use again for other projects.

We hired Vision Landscapes for our outdoor renovation project. We had a plan but needed their guidance to fill in missing details. Ed and Don did a great job educating us and giving us recommendations to make our plan a reality. The company and crew worked very hard and kept us informed during the process. We appreciated how they kept their morale high during construction. Their attention to detail were also highly appreciated. Don/Ed/crew were easy to work with and were receptive to our needs. We highly recommend Vision Landscapes for hardscape/landscape projects. You won't be disappointed.

It was a pleasure working with Ed, Donald and their crew at Vision Landscapes! At our first consultation with Ed, he listened to our concerns, added some great suggestions we would've never thought of, and gave us a very reasonable quote & project time-frame. He's also hilarious and super charismatic. We appreciate his great personality and hard work. We had five retaining walls built in both our front and backyards. Our main focus was to eliminate our grass in the front yard and replace it with a retaining wall. Donald was there everyday during the project, completed additional walk-throughs with us and his crew to make sure everyone knew our plans. He was extremely professional and executed everything we requested. It was fantastic working with him! The crew was polite and worked quickly, completing our project in only 3 days. Overall, our family couldn't be happier with the outcome of this project. We've received lots of compliments from our neighbors and people walking by our house! It feels great knowing that we found the perfect company for our landscaping needs. We highly recommend Vision Landscapes!!

Poor quality fence building. Nail holes where the aren’t supposed to be and only one nail per each 2x4 connecting board to the fence instead of two. Boards are starting to twist and some have come out at the bottom. See first picture. Gate doesn’t close right and no one came to fix it after I contacted them. No brackets connecting fence rails to fence posts just nails. Even screws would have better. Some fence boards coming out at the bottom.

Vision came out the same day I had posted the job to give a quote and fit me into their schedule the very next day. Did a great job preparing the space and installing a beautiful sod. Everyone was very friendly and professional as well as considerate of my little ones and their needs. The first now is included in the service at 8 weeks so will wait to review on that.

I couldn’t have been happier with my experience with Donald and his team. I had an urgent need to replace a section of fence, as a portion was falling down. Donald was immediately responsive and able to work around my schedule to get the project done. He was punctual, showing up at the specified times everyday, and completed the project within a week as we discussed. Midway through the project, we encountered a problem with the ground around where the fence was being installed... and Donald offered multiple fixes for the problem and we were able to quickly come up with a solution. Additionally, Donald was able to save one of gates on my project and save me some money!! Donald is competitively priced, punctual, and does an amazing job. I would highly recommend him for your fence project!!
