Originally, I was extremely optimistic as he was knowledgeable. He pushed back on a few of the items my wife and I wanted completed but, I took his word as the subject matter expert. First day, his team was a no show (no phone call or email notifying us). Second day, his team showed (without notice) and did the bare minimum of what he quoted leaving some plants in the front and back of our house. With that, his team only did a portion of the front and the back. We had to call and ask what the issue was. He commented that he is short personnel and would be back to complete the following day. He kept his word and finished; again, it looked like the work of a novice gardener. My wife asked why he didn't keep his promise of replanting and why it looked like it was poorly done. He replied with, "are we done here." That is not the way to treat a customer when running a business. Not being a Karen, just want others to avoid going through the same experience.

I had to help my family out and was shocked at how insane things had gotten. I looked around to find help but the special care they took on the initial quote was stunning. The crew started and went to work and drove through the jungle and began the I clear it out. I'm not use to this much vegetation so it was astonishing how much they did each day. They spent 3 days working painstakingly in the sun, and did not stop until the job was done. It is the best the yard has looked since I was a kid. The owner deserves a beat on Virginia Beach award I mean it. I don't think there is a job too small or too big for them to take care of. So even if you speak to him and don't use them, I promise you will have an amazing experience talking to a man with a ton of integrity, respect, and great morals. He gave me the best price for this job, and I'm externally grateful for that. Their integrity carries profound wisdom. In a world where circumstances change and challenges abound, it is the steadfastness of character that forges lasting connections and enduring accomplishments. Integrity elevates every endeavor, large or small, and ensures that success is achieved with honor. To seek out and work alongside those with integrity is to choose trust, respect, and shared purpose. It is, ultimately, to choose the best in ourselves--and to build something of substance, together.

I submitted a request for a patio "make-over," and L&J was one of two to respond. A consultation…read morewas done within 48 hours of contact. He offered to service immediately; however, we held off until needed.

And they did it in rather unpleasant weather.

A 5 star experience for a recent Mother's Day arrangement of flowers…read more There is no day like Mother's Day and making it special for Mom. So the idea of a permanent planted arrangement seemed like something perfect for the patio. McDonald's was contacted over the phone a week + out before Mother's Day. I worked with Patrice who emailed different ideas they could do from pots to plants etc. He was so passionate about his trade and left me even more excited that he alone would be the point. Ultimately hydrangeas was chosen as the plant with sweet potatoes. They had many pots to choose from, but a more neutral with a butterfly seemed perfect. The cost was $97. Patrice assured that the plant would be watered and ready for pick up days before Mother's Day. On Saturday I went to McDonald's and after locating Patrice he rolled the plant out. I must say I was overwhelmed with the size. It was huge and gorgeous! Patrice did a video of care instructions as he took ownership of seeing everything through. He also at no charge through in a ceramic tray to hep with transport, but also for any leakage of water with a weep hole at the bottom. The delivery was marvelous and enjoyed by Mom. I cannot say enough positive about this experience. Other staff assisted me and were helpful and enthusiastic about their job. You just don't see this in other big box places ole Lowes and Home Depot. McDonald's is a one stop locally owned since 1947 garden center. They can do it all and the visit is impressive to see the selections. Highly recommend.

I honestly can't say enough good about Shawn Anderson - owner of Visionscapes…read more My fiancee and I met him when looking to replace a shoddy landscape developer when building our custom home who didn't return calls when time was of the essence - when we found Shawn and Visionscapes our home was already framed up but was still heavily under construction and we knew we needed to have a plan in place while it was being built to ensure it didn't cost us more later to get what we wanted. Shawn almost immediately met us on-site - walked around with us - listened to what we wanted - and came up with a comprehensive plan for the property - both front and back yard. He met us at home with a large printed landscape design plan, with plants laid out, pavers, etc. and he went over everything in detail and seemed really excited about the project. Initially we chose to only have the front landscaped - as our dreams for the back are fairly lofty - but because we already knew what we wanted - Shawn met with our builders to advocate for us and ensure we had the proper equipment in advance. For example, I want a custom large fire pit - so he made sure we had the proper output we needed to later install the pipes and such (more jargon needed but I don't remember it now). It would save us a lot of trouble than if we had to change this after the home was built. Shawn's team came out and landscaped our front yard and it's fantastic. He installed specific plants I wanted (white and blue/green hydrangeas) and made a really nice design based on the layout of the home in the lot. When we were finalizing the home there was a mistake made with relation to the landscape plan Shawn made and we submitted to our builders and the cement walkway to the front - while this was being corrected neither we, nor our builders, could figure out the best and most visually pleasing way to fix this issue. We called Shawn and texted him some photos on-site and he sent over within minutes a rough sketch of what he thought we should do - it was perfect and none of us (about 6 people) had even thought about it. He's that good. Really. Because some of the ideas we were having thrown out prior to calling Shawn were pretty bad. And again, time was important, they were pouring it the next day as a quick fix so if we hadn't gotten him on the phone who knows what it would look like today! Shawn has come out and met with us a few times on other items - like fencing for our front and back yard - and he's always willing to set up a time to come to your home and meet with you to discuss. He comes prepared with your home plans, lot layout, and has a well thought-out and planned out design with photos of the plants he suggest so you can see them and approve them. I like someone who did their homework and comes prepared. He makes you feel like you're important and worth the time. That's a big plus. At our last meeting, about fencing in some of our front yard, he walked around to look at the previous landscaping as we mentioned not all the flowers bloomed. He said if they didn't bloom this year to let him know and they'd replace them. Now THAT is good customer service. No excuses, no arguing, no complaints, just, "let me know and we'll fix it if we need to." Another thing we like about Shawn is he almost always answers his phone. He's honest, dependable, approachable and does what he says he will. You get what you pay for folks - and Shawn and his team are top notch. If you need some landscaping done for your home - he's who you need to see. When it isn't cold I'll post some photos of his work.
