Initial dealings with Chris were great. He was nice and sounded knowledgeable. After receiving the quote for landscaping work, we asked for additional breakdown details of the pricing so that we could delete some items to bring the project within our budget. He initially responded within a day or two. Then after 2-3 email exchanges, he decided not to respond anymore in spite of many attempted communications from our part. Only thing I can surmise from the silence is that it is too much trouble to answer questions such as how much the price would change if we deleted one part of the project, and when he could start on the project. Very disappointing as we were ready to hire him. read more

We has such a good experience! Chris is super friendly and he crew is awesome. My son got super excited every day when they would show up, they were always really friendly and would wave to him throughout the day as he watched them. They came and worked hard everyday they were here and cleaned up after themselves. The builders who did our yard originally left a huge mess in the ground all kinds of construction debris under our grass, the crew got all that cleaned up and gone which I really appreciated. Chris has the best prices out of all the bids we got, and our turf looks beautiful. Every part of this process has been great! I can't recommend him enough! read more

Helms Landscape Design - We love our new turf! - Landscaping Near Me - Highlands, Texas

Chris is the consummate professional. He is not the cheapest, nor the most expensive, but his work quality is worth every penny. His team did a fantastic job and left the site cleaner than when they arrived. He noticed a piece of turf that didn't quite match the rest and showed it to us before he left. He is coming back to replace the small section in the coming week. Chris is honest, dependable and a very strong communicator throughout the entire process. We were so satisfied with the experience we are having him come back to landscape our front yard. read more

Chris and his crew were easy to work with, reasonably priced, and followed through every step of the way. His crew put in some turf, laid new pavers on our patio and installed steel guards around all the beds in our backyard. Would definitely recommend Chris and his team. read more

Chris and his team did an awesome job installing underground drainage from back to the front yard, artificial turf, and rock on both sides of the house. From start to finish in less than 4 days. Chris answered all of my questions (and there were LOTS) quickly and helped me to understand the products he was using and maintenance steps of owning artificial turf. The crew were very polite & cleaned up nicely each evening before leaving with a full clean up the day they finished. It was a great experience working with Chris and his crew. I would definitely recommend! read more

Helms Landscape Design - Landscaping Near Me - Highlands, Texas

I have used helms Landscape Design before and I'd like to fill you in on his work. Chris, the president of the company, is committed 100% to doing the absolute best job possible. He is knowledgeable in all areas pertaining to landscaping, from drainage, trees, pruning, grass types and installation, landscape designs, and what plants do well in our Texas climate. The thing that really sets Chris apart is the can do attitude he has with his work. I have had Chris help me with a 120 foot drainage nightmare in my back yard and the work looked daunting. However Chris worked on it steadily and now my backyard drains like a charm. He has planted a oak tree for me in my front yard and he put it in a great spot and it's doing very well. I have called Chris on numerous occasions about questions I've had and he's had a quick informative answer for me right on time, and if he wasn't sure he had the resources to figure it out and get back with me super fast. Can't recommend Chris enough, to recap he's honest, hardworking, and has a passion for what he does. Can't ask for more than that. read more

My husband and I hired Chris Helms and his team to add drainage in our backyard and install a garden along our backyard fence-line. We were so happy with the way everything turned out and with the process in general! Chris was responsive and timely in returning phone calls/texts, sending price estimates, and answering all of our questions. He was also competitively priced, extremely conscientious, flexible, really listened to what I wanted and tried to do everything he could to help us realize our vision for our garden, and, overall, his team did really beautiful work. I appreciated that everything was cleaned up at the end of each day (the job took 3 days total). He even went above and beyond, adding the left-over mulch to our front yard garden beds (at my request), without any additional charge. I have enjoyed the backyard view ever since the project's completion and love all of the flowers and greenery. read more
