After some research, we felt good about calling Terry and the crew and scheduled them to come out for a quote. When we met with Terry to get his vision for a retaining wall; he was friendly and knew what we wanted from the start. He was able to match the brick work that was already pre-existing in the back of our house; which was a plus! Terry and his crew scheduled a time to come out to work on the wall; and they made it look awesome! They made sure to include drainage areas and the tiered looks is just what we wanted for the steep incline in our yard. Not only do we use GLC for our retaining wall, we also use them to treat our yard and do most of the yard work. When we first moved in, our yard was filled with mostly weeds and we had a "grub" problem. Well, with their help, our yard is looking better and the grass is actually green and well taken care of! They do all sorts of treatment throughout the year for us at a decent rate and we are so lucky to have them come out to mow the lawn too! When the crew arrives for lawn service, they get things done pretty quickly and always make sure to clean up after themselves. Overall, we will continue to use GLC and are happy to recommend this company to anyone! We have only had positive experiences with them right from the start. Thanks guys and Thanks Terry for helping our "curb appeal"!

Ray's had excellent customer service from the first quote until the end of the job! They quoted a reasonable price and they were responsive with scheduling a date. It took them two days to take the tree down and clean up and they clearly communicated throughout the entire process. The workers were friendly and did a phenomenal job with an old, damaged, huge tree! We decided to keep some of the wood and they neatly stacked it for us. The second day, another crew came to clean up and they did an excellent and thorough job! It was so nice to deal with such a responsive, friendly company with stellar customer service from the initial quote all the way to the billing. I highly recommend Ray's Tree Service!

These guys are finishing up work in my yard right now and I cannot recommend them enough. They were…read morevery easy to work with and communicate with on site, they were incredibly fast and thorough and were flexible enough to be willing to add on another component to the job. At a previous home I had to have a few trees removed and I'm very pleased with the clean uo and speed of this crew compared to what I've experienced in the past. More details if you want it: A large tree fell and smashed the roof of our garage during a storm taking a power line with it. Omni responded before Ameren did. They came in, took down and cleaned up this huge tree in about 2hrs. We had another tree with a very dead branch that we asked half way through the project if they could take down and they did without issue. Our neighbor was worried they'd take the whole tree down- but they knew exactly what I was talking about and only took down the dead branch - beautiful old tree is safe and healthier than ever. These guys were very responsive and respectful. If mngt is reading this- the crew you sent to Leona deserve a raise! If you're a woman reading this - I can confirm that they were wonderful, professional and did as I asked when I had specifications. They were very easy to communicate with. Not once did I feel like they were speaking down to me or did I get an eye roll - even as I approached them in the middle of the job with a question, which I understand was likely pretty annoying dealing with chainsaws and wood chippers. Frankly - I wish more of the home improvement folks we've been dealing with were like these guys. I hope I never have to deal with tree removal again, but if I do I know who we will call. They made the end of what was a very stressful and painful experience about as nice as possible. Cannot recommend enough. It was a bit of a wait to get them out (storm season), but they still arrived before Ameren and it was worth the wait for a job very well done.

The completed project far exceeded my expectations. Jim had great design ideas. Even though it was a smaller project Baxter Gardens made me feel like I really mattered as a customer. Jim was there when the installers arrived to start the project. He was also there in the middle of the process and at the end to make sure I was satisfied with everything. The customer care was outstanding. Additionally, the team that did the installation were also amazing. Such hard workers and so talented! All that were involved have definitely perfected their craft. Baxter Gardens definitely has an exceptional team. I would definitely recommend this company!

-----…read more Concise Review - Such thick, green grass, across our entire yard! ----- Longer Review We had not used any lawn service before last summer... as the weeds and dry spots could attest. Our neighbors recommended Lawn Masters and we are glad they did. Lawn Masters has made our yard look so wonderful. Sure, the grass still goes dormant and turns brown in the middle of winter... and it starts to green a little on its own... then Lawn Masters applies the first, then the second application, and the green explodes, and the grass grows so thick and tall. So nice. The grass is growing so wonderfully well that we're filling our dumpster with clippings each week. Lawn Masters also offers spray for ticks and chiggers... and also lawn cutting services. Thanks you, Lawn Masters! ----- -----

They did a good job, but the quote they gave me was wildly off. They showed up, unannounced when I…read morewas out of town to do the work and only called me once they were already at my house. They originally quoted me $2,300 for the service and the final invoice was $3,500. Several services were hourly but not accounted for in original quote and this was not explained. Definitely had sticker shock when I received the invoice. All in all, while their landscapers did a good job, their business practices could be better.

We were unhappy with the company we had used for many years. I asked in our neighborhood Facebook…read moregroup for recommendations and Allen Outdoor Solutions came highly recommended. I want to say we've been using them for about five years. We have had better service from them than the two companies we had used previously (one went out of business). We feel like the price is reasonable for the work we have done. They start up our system in April, do a mid season check up on the summer and shut it down in October. We're given a four hour window for our appointments. They call when they're about 10-15 minutes away. The guys have all been pleasant. If anything needs replacing (it's rare, but it happens), they explain what needs to be done and why. The person I speak to in the office is great! I literally have no complaints about, or issues with, this company. I have not used them for anything other than our irrigation system.

I paid Allen Outdoor Solutions about 10 thousand up front and they came out and installed a…read moredrainage system and then I asked them to dig the drainage swale that the we had contracted for. So they said they had to charge me more due to a tree stump and extra man hours and I said Ok, which I thought was not right because we had already agreed to all of this up front when I paid but I said ok and the Swale looks terrible. The curb appeal is downright awful and the Swale has washed out places to the side, some places are higher, down hill than up hill and I think anyone would say it is just terrible looking. When the guys dug the Swale, they just quickly drug up some dirt and left. And the back yard was not done fully. I thought at first it was all done right because I know nothing about drainage and swales but after a few weeks and talking to people and seeing it, I realized it was all done wrong and it looks terrible. In addition, when they dug up the window wells and put in the drainage pipe they asked me if I had any rock, which I did, have, and I was surprised they did not bring any rock for that if they were asking for it. I am paying them for this work and I am providing the rock free while being charged for it. When I went on YouTube and saw hundreds of Swales done, they all looked great, so I know this one is just terrible. No doubt and anyone can come and see it for themselves. I am totally certain when you compare and contrast their swale to thousands of others found online everyone will say theirs looks awful. And so I have contacted other companies to come and do it right and make it look good and they asked about the French drain and they all asked if there was rock under and above it and I said no. And come to find out, across the board, rock has to be put in with the French drain otherwise it will clog up. So now I have to have it dug up and rock put in. I am simply not going to use them again and not recommend them to anyone. And if no one believes me I am from the show me state and will show you that this is all true. I have tried to add photos but could not so like I said, I am willing to show anyone who like what I am talking about.
