He was very condescending to me when I first got a quote with him. Making comments like oh your just a woman you wouldnt understand. My husband insisted we use them. HORRIBLE DECISION. My 3 year old could have done a better job. Very dirty left things everywhere. I called when they were done asking when they were going to return to clean up never got a call back from him. WARNING LOOK ELSEWHERE. RUDE AND UNPLESANT. EDIT TO GARY---- I'm not a scam post. You and I dealt with each other face to face. You are a horrible business man. You are yet to come back to my house and clean up the mess you and your so called crew left behind. You are such a phony. I really hope people see this and decide to be smart and not do business with you. Your such an arrogant man!!

We were very happy with the work done by Gary and his team at Landscaping by Design. We had Gary…read morecompletely redo our backyard on Capitol Hill in DC. All of the existing fencing and hardscape was removed and we installed new cedar fencing, a patio area, a parking area,lighted garden beds and a stone bench. All of this in a narrow DC yard (16x120). We did not contract LBD for design services; we did most of that ourselves (just looking at pictures online). But Gary did a good job of looking at our ideas and helping us see if there were any clear problems. He was always happy to meet with us in person or talk on the phone. And he went with us when we selected hardscaping materials. The only real con to the entire process with LBD is that the job did not go quickly. A job that was scheduled for a few weeks stretched into a few months. There were weather delays for sure and Gary was also working other jobs. However the delays didn't bother us much at all. First, Gary was very clear up front that if we had a strict timeline he wasn't probably our guy. Second, we were more interested in quality than speed. I'm reluctant to write numbers because I have no idea what the scope of your project would be. But I always wish someone would give some indication as to price. So for all the work described above, plus a new garage door (about $5k), but without any actual plantings (we did that part ourselves), the total cost was just over $40k. Yes that's a lot of money, but some of that came from our choices -- the cedar fence was over $10k. And some of the cost was the quality we were paying for. Gary put a lot of work into making sure that the new yard would drain well and making sure that the ground under the hardscaping was well-prepared. That preparation took a lot of work. I would definitely recommend contacting Gary about your project.

The outcome far exceeded our expectations. I give them the highest rating for this work and recommend them without hesitation.

Chuck participated in the window washing and inspected all the windows to make sure we were satisfied. He is extremely communicative, and his prices are very reasonable.

Never use versatile in crofton…read more Unethical practices, was quoted a price, then later charged double! Owner used every excuse from his son quoted it so it must be his sons fault, it was not his son that quoted. Then it must have been his cousin female that gave the wrong price. It was a simple match piece for the side of a vanity 4"by 22". Took no responsibility At all the entire discussion. I called twice after my son picked up the peice and paid, so I left a message which they didn't call back, then went up in person. Was given every excuse why it wasnt his fault. This is the owner, so you know he doesnt care about customers! Do yourself a favor go elsewhere!! Do not spend your hard earned money here. rating os 0 for taking advantage of customers. note to the owner that just responded- I would never asked for ANYTHING free (illogical)- just what I was was quoted for a simple 3 inchx 22 inch peice. I took time to visit your store to quote a price then go back and order, have my son pickup visit to finish the purchase. this exchange / unrealistic response that the customer is looking for free is UNTRUE, I asked for a reasonable pay for service that I quoted; in fact you claimed afterwards there is nothing less than $100 service minimum. Which again was not the quoted/ mentioned for I would have gone to lowes instead. But I wished to shop local businesses , which I now regret.

They have reasonable prices. I definitely recommend them for future work if needed.

Can't express enough my disappointment with the company we contracted to tile our shower and…read morebathroom floor. Nothing particularly hard. Cost was decent and projected time was 4-6 business days. 2 guys showed up on Monday 3 May. We had one change in design on the inset of the shower wall... we added a pencil line. By Thursday morning, we were requesting a company supervisor to come to the house and discuss the problems. We did not let the contractors in until someone showed up. The rep left telling us he would get back to us with a solution, one possible option was to sub the work out since they had one tile setter. Instead of a phone call, we got an email at COB saying the company was voiding our contract and the deposit we paid was to be used for the work that was completed in 3 days. After 3 days of work the contractors were barely 50% complete. My husband, who is a construction manager, had to work with these two gentlemen continuously for three days and correct things as they went along. I won't bore you with the details of the emails that went back and forth, but we did agree that they could continue work if there was a quality control put in place and that we had to redo the timeline. The company came back and said that they were requesting full payment before continuing. If the work stoppage had been due to a schedule slip at our request or another request from us, I can understand wanting full payment. But because it was a quality issue and requesting us to pay in full prior to completion of the work is completely unreasonable. And goes against standard business practice. I'm attaching photos of the work done. And also a video of my husband as he's taking out the spacers that were left on the floor tile. As you can see the tiles are popping up. The amount of tiles that have thinset on them is probably half in addition to what you see in the video. Clearly there was a problem and instead of the contractor figuring out what the problem was, he just kept trying new tiles. The problem with the inset on the shower wall, I think is quite obvious. Instead of doing a full row on the top, he cut the tiles short. It is not balanced at all with the bottom. There is obviously plenty of room on the top to have done another row and then the pencil. The problem with the large tiles on the wall means a really thick grout line at the ceiling because he put them up knowing they were too short. Even after all of this, we were willing to work with them. Glad it worked out otherwise. Dan is going to finish the shower and we'll find a competent company to do the floor. smdh
