I used this provider for two years. I ordered three cords of of wood this year. Delivery was made…read moreand I was told it may be short. After stacking I measured twice and discovered the load was short 3/4 of a cord. We brought this to their attention and were told to stop complaining and not to use their services again. Another small load was delivered but it ended up still being short 1/4 cord. We requested they come and measure the stacks just to be sure the quantity was correct. We never heard from them again. Disappointed!

I have enjoyed dealing with Mike. I believe I've done well with his pricing on the hardwood I need…read moreto keep my home warm in Colorado Springs. I use a fireplace insert and I depend on it. I don't like to use pine. Cresote, short burns, etc. The amounts of wood look very fair if not generous. They are a mix and that's what I worked out for at least the 1st cord. I will say the 2nd was to be maple and it's a mix to a degree but it seems good. I won't know for sure until I really get to burning it up frankly. It was to be rounds mostly which burn slower in a stove/insert and I have mostly split but it's okay. I am happy and the rounds I do have should go for a while. If 2 cords in Springs proper in my home don't get me through the season then I will know something is off and will report back but again- Mike's a good guy. I would give 5 and I am on the fence with it. I want to but there were just a couple odd things that I'll leave off here as they are not appropriate for here. I will say that Mike is a good guy to deal with. I enjoyed conversing with him. He threw some deals compared to what he said he would normally charge. Everything was a mix to a degree but the portions are nice. I will say you can tell the difference between the true properly seasoned hardwood like say oak versus hit or miss gatherings from the companies that take trees down that he gets some supplies from. THEY ALMOST ALL DO. Else you will pay a ton of money. You are in a city that is founded on planted trees and was mostly semi-arid once upon a time. As a business owner I have to be honest. I doubt I would ever do better than what Mike gave me but again I do need to dig into it and use it. He seems to know the species well and most of it is in good shape. I think the only way you can possibly get better quality is to pay through the nose to a company like a nursery company that will charge about $500 for a cord of good hardwood. Mike's look solid and he was nice to deal with. I thank him for his help and I hope to work with him again next season. Do be careful of the craigslist offerings and realize that pine is a quick burning wood. I will say that I've been told by ALL now that cottonwood was a hardwood and it's simply not. I have a ton if it and it's similar to aspen. I wish we could get that recognized. Don't get a mixed cord with cotton in it unless you are looking for softwood. Albeit, it's better than much pine for heating. UPDATE- his hardwood plus the wood I still had barely made it through a warm winter and I used it sparingly. It burned to fast. A bit misleading as when I see "soft wood" I think pine and not useless wood as he more or less stated to me recently. His prices are about the same as the business I know nearby and are used by the owners of some of the fireplace companies. I WILL SAY I DON'T THINK HE WILL BURN YOU LIKE SOME CAN. YOU DO HAVE TO BE CAREFUL OUT THERE! He was nice to me but... I am glad he helped me stack but complained his back hurt about 7 minutes in (I was a new customer ordering a good bit and I am disabled with multiple failed surgeries now). I had to do half the stacking it seemed. Fine but the wood moisture content seemed off and things burnt up quick even dampening down a lot. Tons of creosote (dampening and the wood quality). Some had nails in it. I wanted rounds to be honest but I got the "assortment" of leftovers from jobs. He does seem to know the cuts of wood but I'd rather buy properly seasoned and picked wood. Just seemed like that 2 cords of hardwood plus the wood I still hand on hand should have lasted better all things considered.

Fantastic selection! We were redoing our backyard and went to this location for landscaping…read morematerials and everybody was super friendly and helpful. They made my visits very easy. I had never went to a place like this and needed a ton of rock or bricks or any of that type of stuff so I absolutely had no idea what I was doing and I'm just grateful for their courteousness. They were very patient walked me through the process of weighing your truck and then getting the rock dumped in and then coming back and re-weighing and how that's different compared to if you just want to get like gardening blocks or bricks. The over all service from every single person from the people at the cash register to the people that load the material for you was very kind and super helpful. If you're in need of landscaping materials this is the place I highly recommend this location!

Now, 1 1/2 months later the Lowe's plants are beautiful and doing great, however, the plant from McCords is dying. We called to ask about a replacement plant and to see if we could return the bag of soil we did not use but found out McCords does not take any returns nor replace any plant. Lesson learned for us... this high priced nursery is no match for Lowe's and much more expensive.

After reading the reviews I see this has happened to others. Requested a quote for decking…read morematerials 300 sq ft deck. probably $6000 in materials. Brian told me he'd have the quote that week.

I was ready to spend money now I will purchase through home depot. I guess because I'm a homeowner and not a contractor I'm on the back burner. Very poor commutation and follow through, advise little guy to go somewhere else.

We ordered redwood siding, a lot of it. The industry has 3 thicknesses- thin standard and thick…read more The thin siding is only 1/8" thick at the top. It is mostly used for interior decoration. Even the thick end on the material they sent me is an 1/8 less than standard siding. The salesman failed to mention that we will be getting the thin one. In a later conversation he didn't even know there were 3 different thicknesses. So we ended up with lumber that is not suitable for outdoor exposure. It is so thin it cracks at the mere sight of the sun. We are now gluing a piece of plywood as backing so it doesn't warp and crack in hopes that it will hold it together. This stuff is so thin you can't even put a nail through it without it cracking. Our sales order said nothing about thin siding. I would not recommend ordering any milled material from them unless you can see for yourself what your getting. Not just a sample the entire order.

Phelan Gardens is a reliable source of gardening and plant supplies in the area…read more They feature a wide variety of plants, both indoor and out, which I find to be generally in good health and lacking pests or disease. A great source for landscaping and fruiting plants and a great place to start building a houseplant collection. I generally find the selection of houseplants to be pretty common, but I always have to stop in because, every once in a while, they have a unique or hard-to-find variety that I just can't pass up! It's just not a go-to location if you're seeking something on the rare side.
