I inherited a lawn and garden from someone way beyond my skill level, and I've spent literal years…read morelooking for a gardener or landscaper who would be willing to work on smaller projects ($5k-$10k) to help me clean it up. I was also looking for a company who cares about eco-friendly gardening, which obviously led me to Ecoscapes. I was initially very impressed at the consultation. Craig was really professional and extremely knowledgeable. He spent a lot of time telling me about my yard and even walked through every little spot with me identifying plants and giving me ideas for DIY projects that I could tackle without much cost. I was literally at the point of tears (of joy) after the consultation because I was so grateful. Unfortunately, once things got into the planning stages, the experience went downhill pretty fast. It took almost a month before I received the initial quote on the project, although he said things might be delayed so I didn't think much about it at the time. But after that, all communication completely dropped off. I sent a follow-up message to the quote asking for a couple modifications, but never heard back. After a few weeks I sent another message asking if he received my last one. That's when he very quickly responded (quote): "I'm sorry, I'm not interested in small projects. If you decide to tackle a larger project I would be fine with entertaining that in the future." To say I was disappointed is an understatement. It was immediately clear to me that my project wasn't "valuable enough" for him, despite having long-term plans for multiple projects. What was especially frustrating is that his business is not only advertised as "small project-friendly" but Craig was clear in the consultation that he would work with me after I had given him the scope. It definitely felt like he was simply "being professional" to get the $100 consulting fee but had no actual interest in following through. I had also put other prospective landscapers on hold waiting for responses from Craig that I never received. So while the consultation went well, I really can't recommend this company if you're considering a project under $10k. Which is a shame because I was ready to be a customer for life based on the first meeting. So if you need an eco-friendly landscaper and you don't have a big budget, look elsewhere. But if you're looking to pay $100 for someone to tell you about the plants in your yard, the fee is worth it.

Our yard was totally unrecognizable when they were done. They left things neat and tidy too. We could not be happier with Ecoscapes Sustainable Landscaping!

In any case, ~20 years ago my son and I terraced the slope & garden on the East side of my house and installed timber retaining walls. Despite the fact that I used treated lumber the once pristine barriers had begun to deteriorate. I also had started but never finished several other projects. The patio and backyard were getting shabby and overgrown. It was time for a change. Anyone who may have read some of my previous reviews knows about my somewhat recent physical challenges. I'm not exactly a Spring chicken either. A professional job was in order. In addition to choosing Inspired I selected bluestone rock to replace the rotting timbers. The resulting walls and edging look great and the old beams were hauled away. Finished work included river rock and mulch. Gustavo partners with his father and brother to schlep, prepare, install and clean up. Gus was personable and I found him easy to work with. Everything was completed on time and according to neighbors looks: "amazing." Bluestone is not inexpensive. At first I was hesitant to spend so much, especially since I had done much work myself. But I think that in the long run the landscaping/hardscaping will more than pay for itself in providing years of entertaining and peaceful contemplation. Not to mention that it will likely raise the value of my home. If I have any major landscaping additions, I won't hesitate to contact Gus and his crew. Together they are effective, efficient, courteous and meticulous.

We hired EDS for a major landscaping project in 2023. One of the main reasons we selected EDS was…read morethe promise of maintenance-free landscaping. We also specifically requested that our existing mature, healthy, and unique trees be preserved. These trees were an important part of our property and provided significant privacy. I was only able to stop the removal partway through the project, but several trees had already been taken out. We were told at the time that the removed trees would be replaced with new plantings that would ultimately provide a better overall appearance and maintain privacy. Unfortunately, this has not been our experience. Many of the replacement trees have struggled to survive, and within a couple of years several have died. We have already had to replace at least four trees at our own expense. In addition, when I reached out to Mark about one of the failing replacement trees, I was initially told that replacing a small pine tree would cost approximately $800. I ultimately purchased a comparable tree from Home Depot for about $70 instead. After this, communication stopped and I did not receive further responses. While the initial sales process and communication were positive, the long-term results have not reflected the premium price we paid. The loss of mature privacy trees, the need for repeated replacements, and the lack of follow-up support have left us disappointed with the overall outcome.

They were up front about having a minimum project cost of $10K. I was willing to pay at least that for work on combination of several gardens around my yard. I took Mark around the yard and told/showed him what I wanted to do. Several weeks later (and much longer than he said it would take), I went to his office to look over his plans. Nothing in the plans had any resemblance to what I told him I wanted. He wanted to rip out all the perennial flower beds that all my neighbors and I love for their year-round color (I even get many compliments even from strangers walking by). His plans replaced them all with "Japanese gardens." He told me he's been doing Japanese gardens for years, but what he wanted to do was, at best, Japanese-inspired gardens because they defied a lot of Japanese garden design principles. I've spent a lot of time studying Japanese gardens, including 2 weeks touring Japanese Gardens in and near Kyoto Japan with Judith Clancy who has written a book on the subject, so I know what is and isn't a Japanese garden. There is much more to Japanese garden design than putting rocks and trees in together. EDS did landscaping for a neighbor a number of years ago. The work in front is lovely, However, in back there are 5 evergreens that looked very nice when planted, but were placed too close to the house and now that they have grown will have to be taken out because the branches are rubbing against the siding and the trees are blocking windows. One of the berms installed and another area also became overrun with European Snow on the Mountain that required Roundup to eradicate it.
