Review of Gibbs Landscape Company

We redid the landscaping in our entire front yard....

We redid the landscaping in our entire front yard. Nathan, the landscape designer, listened to my likes and dislikes and created a beautiful plan which we were able to agree on and start within weeks of the initial phone call. I appreciated Nathan's knowledge of plants, attention to detail and quick response every time he was needed.

Once started, the crew, led by Luis, was incredibly capable, knowledgeable and caring, prepping and grading perfectly, planting the way I would plant if I were doing it myself. I have very high standards and the crew met those standards every day. Every tree and shrub was planted exactly as Nathan said it would be (which has not been the case with other landscape companies I have dealt with.) Nathan came one or more times each working day to check on progress and to give guidance and he was never in a rush. He always answered any of my or Luis' questions. At the end of each day, the crew cleaned up spotlessly, leaving the yard and driveway in great condition even though it was a work in progress. We had to remove 20 year old trees with tough, deep roots and they dug them all out, many by hand because they were so close to the foundation.

We also added quite a bit of new sod. Again, I was very impressed with the care with which everything was graded, soil added and sod rolled and rolled to perfection. And this was all during the rainiest winter I've ever seen in Atlanta.

If there were questionable plants or any plants were not exactly what Nathan had tagged, they went back. We had to wait quite a while for boxwoods that were just right and we were unable to get the larger size of one of the foundation shrubs so that took an extra few weeks of waiting for plants but what ended up being planted is beautiful.

The job took extra time because of the weather and waiting for shrubs, but it looks great. My home now looks fresh and new. I would definitely recommend Gibbs......you get what you pay for.....they did a fabulous job.
