We never really spent much time in our backyard because it's south-facing and we didn't have any shade. Al and his crew did an incredible job removing all of the grass, leveling out the ground and cutting all of the pavers to fit the space. I also bought a pergola kit from Costco and the AAA Lanscaping crew poured concrete supports and built the whole pergola for me.

The Helm Team is fantastic!…read more Not only did this amazing team clean up our newly purchased, very overgrown gardens, but they were also super-efficient, highly skilled, friendly, and cleaned up what we thought would take a week in only two days! Here's what else we loved: - Always communicated (the whole team) - Asked questions and followed through on feedback - Detail-oriented - Organized - Friendly and informative in our walkthrough of the project - Final cost reflected the bid - Had a backup solution when the roll-off dumpster company mixed up the delivery (they had enough of their own trucks to grab all of the first day's clean-up) They took great care of us and our front yard looks amazing!! We've even had compliments from the neighbors and I just love to look at it every morning. Thank you so much, Keith, Caroline, and the whole team. We look forward to working with you again. - Karen & Michael

John was really great to work with for our big landscaping project (pretty much gutting and…read moreremodeling the entire front and back yards). He understood our vision for the yard and was able to produce exactly what we were wanting. Aside from a few rain delays, the project was also completed very quickly. All the workers that came to the house to work were professional and very friendly as well. Our project was very big - and some of the things we needed to get done did fall within John's business. However, he was able to get us in touch with another contractor who does specialize in those things, and those workers and the job they completed was amazing also! We still have 1 or 2 more projects we will need John's help with again sometime in the future - but for now, I would highly recommend using John and Absolute Property Improvement for any or your landscaping needs!

I got bids from several landscapers prior to meeting with John, but I knew we wanted his team even before he sent us a quote. The team was able to start work on our project earlier than projected and we had enough confidence in their team that we let them run the project from start to finish while we were out of town. John's team was meticulous with their work and we were kept up to date with daily progress. We couldn't be happier with the finished project. We got a check-in with an irrigation tech about a week following completion for some fine tuning and things look great! I won't even bother calling anyone else for any new projects--the experience was that good!

He has stayed in touch throughout our summer of 100+ degree days to ensure that our plants and flowers are staying alive. Like everything else, landscaping is not cheap; but with our current drought conditions, it seemed like the right thing to do.

A Cautionary Review of Land Designs by Colton Our Experience…read moreand Lessons Learned Initially, our experience with Land Designs by Colton seemed promising. The project kicked off smoothly, and we had high expectations based on their assurances and professionalism during the early stages. However, as the work progressed, significant issues began to arise, tarnishing our trust and satisfaction with the company. And then they ghosted us. The Tree Planting Disaster One of the first major problems we encountered was with the landscaping aspect--specifically the planting of trees. Out of the nine trees planted, six died within a relatively short time frame. We had been informed that these trees were under warranty for a year, which gave us some initial reassurance. Unfortunately, when we sought replacements for the dead trees under this warranty, the company did not honor their commitment. This was deeply frustrating and marked the beginning of a series of disappointments in dealing with Land Designs by Colton. Contract Issues Another frustration arose when we attempted to obtain a copy of our contract. We had initially accessed the agreement through Google Docs, but it was mysteriously deleted. When we reached out to Land Designs by Colton for a copy, they claimed they could no longer provide it due to changes in their system following an update. This lack of accountability and transparency added to our growing unease with the company. The Deck Extension Debacle The most costly and distressing issue was related to a deck extension they built for us. After the work was completed, we discovered that the extension had not been permitted--they assured us that this was not necessary. As we began the process of obtaining necessary permits, we learned that the construction itself was not done to code. Specific deficiencies included: * Footings that were not deep enough * Railing spindles with uneven spacing * Stairs that failed to meet code requirements These violations have forced us to reconstruct the deck to meet code standards, incurring additional expenses totaling thousands of dollars. In essence, the deck project has doubled in cost due to their negligence. This has been an incredibly stressful ordeal, both financially and emotionally. Conclusion Our experience with Land Designs by Colton has been nothing short of disastrous. What began as a promising relationship quickly deteriorated due to unfulfilled warranties, lack of transparency regarding contracts, and substandard construction practices that led to code violations. We hope our story serves as a warning to others considering working with this company. Proceed with caution and ensure that every aspect of the contract and work is meticulously monitored to avoid similar hardships. Beware of Land Designs by Colton. What seems fine at the start may end up costing you dearly in the end.

Jonathan is among the most unprofessional vendors I have ever come across…read more For background: I hired him to work on my front lawn, and warned him I'd need him to be flexible as I was also getting a fence installed. I paid him half up front and he did some work. When I needed him to return to finish the lawn after the fence was installed, he strung me along on a finish date for months. I tried to press him to finish the job, and he got nasty. I'd often get trapped in circular conversations with his assistant, who hides behind legalese language, while Jonathan's correspondence was filled with condescension, personal attacks, and threats. (As an example: See below his assistant's response as evidence of the kind of legal speak they use, and how they twist it around in their favor. Pegging blame on the customer without accepting responsibility for their own awful service.) And they're thugs. I had to file a police report after he and his workers broke into our backyard _and garage_ to reclaim what he says are his materials. Some $10 pipes. This is something they'll point to in the contract as a thing he has a right to do. Upon terminating his contract for stringing me along, severe unprofessional behavior, and even violating our safety and security, he charged a termination fee. This would be laughable if it weren't so vindictive. Despite it all, I did pay him whatever ridiculous invoice he'd excuse with his contract in order to get rid of all the vitriol he was turning my way. So... Be wary of his, and his assistant's, predatory contract which they rely on to get away with crappy service. You'll know he deems your project to not be lucrative for him, when he gives you side comments about him "doing you a favor." He lacks follow through to complete a job unless it's on his terms, and he lacks professionalism in dealing with client requests. He gets nasty and personal if you get on his bad side. He loves to tout his educational background, as if to reassure you he's somehow different or that you'd be getting excellent service. Don't fall for it. There are plenty of other contractors in the Denver area who do amazing work in a timely fashion without all the drama. Save yourselves the headache.
