10/13/15 Final update: We never heard back after that phone call but we came home one day and had all new hedges across the front of our house.  I thought it was a bit strange that they didn't contact us at all but they did keep their word and replace the dead bushes.

9/18/15  Update #2.  Received a call this morning (due to the below update??) More insistence that the plants died from lack of watering which  of course was argued because we did try to take care of these plants.  When my husband pointed out that we could go down the street to a very reputable nursery and purchase plants that are guaranteed for a year, no questions asked, he was told the company would replace the 9 plants but this would be the only time.  Fair enough.  We'll see how long it takes and what the final result is.







9/17/15 I need to add to the below original review.  I called last week to talk to someone because 9 of the 24 plants have died.  I was simply asking what could have happened or if there was anything we could do since these had been planted only 3 months prior. I was told someone would call me back later that day but I heard nothing.  I called back the next day and my call was returned.  The person I spoke with said he would come out Tuesday of this week to take a look.  My husband waited but didn't see or hear anyone all day.  My husband called on Wednesday and was told someone would come by on Thursday at 2:30.  My husband  went out for a while in the morning and during that time someone called and left a voicemail saying they had come out "the other day" and determined the plants had died due to lack of watering.  I do understand that there is a bit of drought right now however as I stated 9 of 24 plants have died.  Aside from the fact that I know the plants have been regularly watered I believe that If it were lack of watering some of the other plants would also have died if not all of them.  2 plants right in the middle of the 9 are surviving fine.  I wasn't asking them to replace the plants for free or anything, as a matter of fact we never even really had an opportunity to discuss anything regarding what the company or we could do.  I felt that  since we weren't new customers or asking for some service for which they were sure they would make money that we simply got blown off.  I know things happen but these plants lasted only 3 months.  I would have expected more and I was even more put off by the attitude.  Previously my husband and I had talked about possibly having this company do some other work but I am extremely doubtful that we will call them for anything else now.

6/3/15 We purchased an Angie's List Big Deal for a landscaping makeover.  We were contacted immediately to set up an appointment.  Someone came to our house and assessed what we wanted to have done which was to remake a garden area across the front and down the side of our house.  We were emailed a very detailed proposed plan.  We called to ask a few questions and set up a time for the work to be done.  The morning the work was supposed to be done we received a call that due to weather issues it would have to postponed a day.  The following day workers arrived and completed all work.  They cleaned out the existing area and removed dead shrubbery, landscaping cloth, mulch etc. then planted new shrubbery, rose bushes and other plants in a very appealing design.  I had several azaleas that I wanted to keep and they managed to move these and include them in the project.  New mulch was placed in the area as well as another area that hadn't been discussed but needed the update. We were very pleased with the work and our overall experience.

"Very professional and was able to get the job done quickly."

"Professionalism every step of the way; from the initial estimate, to installation and follow up. Marvin Padilla explained every possible layout and option and really took the time to listen to our design. No high-pressure sales tactics, just quality, friendly proposal. We hired them to do a front garden retaining wall and a patio in the back. Day of installation the crew of 6 show up and hit the ground running; took them 1 1/2 days to complete both jobs and we couldn't be happier with the results. We've already gotten lots of compliments from neighbors who are now interested in their work. If I'm ever in need again of stonework or landscaping services, I'm not looking anywhere else!"

"Fantastic!!! I can't say enough good things. I am not one to normally post reviews, but Dave and The Outdoor Advantage company were so great I feel obliged. Very prompt service. Came out and did a quote within 2 days of contacting. Worked with me to price itemize different ideas and items throughout the backyard design. Afterwards, I received several other quotes from other companies. And while OA ended up being on the higher end of the quotes, I was impressed enough with the professionalism and the pictures of the previous work of Outdoor Advantage that I contacted Dave to see what could be done. Dave worked with me through my itemized list to get the project within my budget and comparable to the other quotes. After signing a contract, Dave and his crew were able to start work within 3 days. Work was completed in 9 continuous days. Having dealt with contractors before, that was impressive!! (If you haven't-- often you'll see companies starting weeks after a signed contract and then working odd days here and there to finally finish.) Dave himself showed up several times to the site to make sure the work was going well. The crew handled all the removal of old product, bringing in tools/materials, installation, and clean-up. The backyard was left immaculate with no finishing work by owner necessary. The finished product was better than I could have imagined!! I am so happy with the results and wish I would have done this years ago."

"Gary was professional and listened to my requirements. Great communication through the whole design process. My addition was unique and unusual, attached to a A-Frame home, into a bank, with a flat roof. I would highly recommend Kapital Drafting without hesitation."

"Berny Hintz is a super architect who values the customer/client relationship. His work is outstanding--we did not have a good idea of how to reformat our master bedroom/bath to make it useful and convenient to our house design. Berny came up with wonderful ideas. He has jumped through "hoops" when county permit issues arose. He created a 3-d visual of our renovations that we could view using the client version of the software. Berny has been realistic in time-frame of the design phase, construction phase, and cost expectations. We are just finished with design now and met with contractors."

"The tree trimmers did a good job. They were very responsive to my wishes.

"This professional replaced a broken sliding glass patio door in the basement. Before the installation he explained in great detail exactly what will be done and which materials will be used. Then he did exactly as he explained. The work was finished on time, the area was left perfectly clean, and I am 100% satisfied with the result. The total amount I paid for the work and the materials is lower than the estimates I received from four other professionals. In summary, this was a good value for the money."
