Marvin came out the day after I called him and we discussed clearing it. He was extremely knowledgeable and experienced, able to name various plants and tress at a glance, and was happy to answer all of my questions through the process. He and his crew came out and cleared it after 2 days of work the following week, which I appreciated as it allowed us to talk about the progress and I how I wanted certain areas handled. The price was reasonable and the crew took great care to trim and keep healthy plants. Now that the space is cleared we can really appreciate the size of our yard and it feels like we suddenly have 60% more yard! I look forward to reaching out to 2 Brothers Landscaping for my future outdoor needs.

The contractor we had originally hired to rebuild our retaining wall in front of our house had only…read morepartially excavated the job site, and then disappeared with our money and never returned to finish the work. So, we started hunting for someone new to build the wall, and eventually settled on Garden Creations in Red Lion. We chose them partially due to their pricing, but also because of their location, how quickly they were able to quote the job, and the fact that they provided a proper written contract before starting work. They were very professional. They kept the job site clean/protected, they were true to their word and showed up on time every day and worked full days to get the job done quickly, and they even went a step further than they needed to, and cleaned out all the weeds and poison that had grown in the mulch around the wall (it had gotten really bad since it had been almost 6 months since the original contractor disappeared). I would definitely recommend this company for any hardscape related work, as they took their time to do the job the right way, and they handled the project professionally from start to finish.

We decided to get a quote from Rhine after they did a good job with tree maintenance/ removal and…read moreafter our neighbors recommended them. Unfortunately, our experience did not meet expectations. We paid $900 up front for the design document for a screened in porch and paver patio. Rhine doesn't provide design documents as part of the quote. You need to pay for it. Honestly the design document was nothing special; It was a 2D computer generated drawing, which I doubt could have taken the designer more than a day to develop. Also, we were told that we could use the design document with other contractors, but the document didn't include dimensions or measurements. Ultimately we didn't get a lot of value out of the design document, and we consider it a wasted expense. (Thank goodness we didn't pay the full rate of $1,800 for the design document!) Additionally, it took us several attempts to meet with the designer. He was a no-show for our first meeting (he had a personal emergency, which is understandable), but then it took several emails to land on a new appointment time. He was then late to the rescheduled appointment. We also requested design revisions via email, and we had to follow up several times to get an acknowledgment of our request, with additional follow up needed to actually get the revised version back. Finally, the quoted rate for our project compared to local competition was simply outrageous. The project cost range was about 1.5-3 times more expensive than quotes we got from other vendors. Additionally, other vendors provided 3D design renders at no cost as part of their quote. We asked what was the explanation for such a high quote: did this include all premium materials? We were told that the quote included standard materials, and that if we wanted to choose custom / premium materials, the price would go up from there. My sense was that the scope of the project was too small for them, so they quoted us something outrageous so we wouldn't go with them. But if that's the case, the business owner should have been up front with us that they only take on bigger projects before taking $900 for what wound up being a lackluster design document. Overall, we felt that we got little value from our quote process, compounded by lack of professionalism and lack of respect for our time with regard to our interaction with Rhine. If you own a multimillion dollar home and you have deep pockets then maybe Rhine will be more suited to your purposes. But it seems that Rhine is in a different market than smaller jobs for regular suburban homes in and around Ellicott City.
