Let me start out by saying that my encounter with this company started out a little rocky. Lol, . After meeting with Robert about getting some stones placed he was very accommodating. He doesn't usually do this type of work according to his wife, but since the location was so close to his yard they agreed to place 4 stones to accent/border my yard. I picked um out and marked them. He showed up promptly Saturday morning and put them right where I wanted them even micro adjusting them to my specific liking, . Fantastic service. Not many people do that anymore, it's a good trait. Good pricing also. Keep up the great work bro. If I need bigger ones, I'll call you again. I highly recommend this company. ****6/20/23****MAD!!! UPDATE. Let me start out by saying my experience with the owner was fantastic easily likable guy with a great attitude. Took care of business professionally the way it should be done. Over the course of this job I've called them 7 times according to my phone call logs. Marcella has actually CALLED ME BACK 1 TIME OUT OF 7, THAT'S 14%. Not very good. This last time i called and spoke with her June 10th@2:53pm. She said I'll call you back Monday the 12th. At about 430pm I called and after not being called back and she said sorry I didn't get a chance to talk with him, I'll call you at noon Tuesday the 13th. It's now Tuesday the 20th and of course still nothing. I messaged her on Facebook and she had the never to say I never gave you a time id call you back. I write everything down so I don't make mistakes. I also don't like people who are dishonest. Just say your sorry and do better. Don't keep blowing me off. My word is my bond. I'm old school. I CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY DUE TO LACK OF COMMUNICATION. The guy is fantastic but his wife's communication skills are terrible. read more

If there were negative stars I would give them all. This is by far the WORST experience I have ever had with a "contractor ". Paid him to remove some structures on my property. I told him only rock, concrete and wood ash is allowed to be buried. "Oh yes of course we would never put anything else in the ground, we will take it all out to the recycling and transfer station". At first I thought he only did a terrible job cleaning up the job site!... until we started excavating for the foundation for our new house a few months later... My contractor called me and was very upset! He sent me pictures of all the garbage they found while excavating! It was horrific, seems like Brownscape just bulldozed the structures and pushed them in the existing hole where the foundation of the old house was. They just took a minimal amount to the transfer station and left insulation, plastic tarps, house wiring, wood structures, carpet, hoses, parts of the fridge and concrete and in the hole and covered it up with a few inches of dirt. After confronting him on the phone, he insulted me and called my ever name under the sun and told me that it was my fault that I wanted to build the new house in the same location as the old house.... I have talked to a few contractors about the incident and everybody agrees that what Brownscape did, is not common practice. If you need stuff done around your property and want a complete disaster and extra cost to clean up the mess, hire Brownscape, if you want it done right, then please don't. read more

See all

I could never in good faith recommend Brownscape. If you choose to take a chance on them make sure you get every bit in writing on the invoice because when they come to bid the job they fill you with a bunch of "oh sure we can do that, sure we can do this" but then after getting the job they do half of what was agreed upon. I had them do some leveling of a lot, we discussed exactly how we wanted it, we all agreed what was to be done an how much of the lot was to be done, they took it upon themselves to determine what our "useable" space was and leveled only that part verses what they agreed to level when applying for the job, when I talked to them all ya get is "check the invoice we did what we were hired to do" so make sure you put in writing exactly what you want an what they agree to otherwise they write "level lot" then claim they did what they were hired to do. I specifically said I don't want a drop off I want it sloped, they agreed to that but left a huge drop off stating for several more thousand they can haul in dirt an bring that area up, conveniently he claimed to have a job just "down the road" and there was a bunch of dirt he had to remove from that job he could bring to our job for $400 a truck load and claimed we would Need 10-12 truck loads so roughly another 4 grand for dirt. We also stated we wanted to keep our deck and railing, they claimed they couldn't save the railing (even tho it was brand new) so they just sawed it off an threw it away verses taking it apart like agreed. They seem to make a lot of excuses, then blame the customer, we paid them just shy of 8 grand to knock down a very small shed, move a square deck (which they later claimed was a "throw in" not included in the bid), and they didn't level it anywhere close to what they agreed to when bidding the job, as a business owner myself I'd be ashamed of the work done and certainly would never blame the customer. Our only wish is we would have went with a more honest company, one that keeps their word on what's to be done. Make sure you get in writing the details they agree to otherwise they will just write "level lot" on your invoice then claim they did the work they were hired to do, we paid just shy of 8 grand and got at most 4 grand worth of work. Our neighbor asked us who did it, their looking for someone to demolish a structure and sadly I had to direct them elsewhere as the saying "you get what ya pay for" doesn't always stand true, we got less than half of what we paid for and their response to negative reviews is always blaming the customer. read more

What can I say...if you have the opportunity to work with Robert at Brownscape, consider yourself lucky. He is one of the hardest working and most honest contractors I've worked with. He is a family man and is well respected by his peers (I've hired them too). That is not what makes him special. His creativity and inventiveness makes him a great asset to have on your project. He quite literally restored a foreclosed property to a wedding venue in a matter of months. Anyone can rent equipment and move dirt. Robert is an artist. Find a project, call him, and see for yourself. read more
