South Side Specialties

Very much more than excellent. They did excellent work and provided excellent personal service.

For the past three years, we’ve tried everything we could to get grass seed to grow in our front yard. But between a bad slope and improper drainage, we finally had enough. We had initially tried a different landscaper but after their initial estimate came in at double our budget (after we paid an $800 design fee), we looked elsewhere and came across Jeremy South and Southside Specialties. From the onset, we couldn’t have been more impressed. Jeremy knew exactly what the costs would be based on our desires. Once the project got started, his team was very professional and very expedient. As things progressed, we changed and altered a couple things and Jeremy was all too accommodating. Between the sod, retaining wall, and proper drainage, our front yard is now the pride of the neighborhood and I’ve had several neighbors ask who did the work. I couldn’t recommend Southside more. Give them a call.

THE GUYS DID AN AMAZING JOB.! I WOULD HIRE AGAIN AND RECOMMEND TO FRIENDS

2 day job and they did a great job. We are going to use them again for more yard work!

Jeremy and his crew did an excellent job replacing a crumbling retaining wall and installing a new patio area. The planning process went smoothly (we debated materials and design a bit) and construction was completed on time by an incredibly efficient and hardworking crew. We found the pricing to be competitive and, when our original vision was not within budget, Jeremy worked with us to find materials that were attractive and more affordable. He also checked in on the job site daily and with us often during construction.

Jeremy South and his team were the excellent! They were very professional, courteous and respectful. They also adhered to the safety precautions for Covid-19. They did an outstanding job of trimming our trees and shrubs at our home. Along with the great job they did with trimming that did an exceptional job with clean up which is extremely important to both me and my husband. I would hire them again and plan to for another job in the fall.

First rate job. We had erosion and poor soil on our sloped yard that made it hard to grow anything. South Side Specialties designed a great solution and did fantastic work building stone terraces, a stairway, and a reliable drainage system. We love it. I would absolutely hire them again.

I highly recommend South Side Specialties! The owner and his crew were efficient, very thorough and professional. They did an excellent job on my overgrown trees and a tree removal. The owner is very knowledgeable and made sure we understood the process to ensure our trees stay healthy and manageable. My experience was great and I will definitely hire them for all of my future landscaping needs!

So very grateful to have found this awesome local small business landscaper! Just a few of the things that set South Side Specialties apart from the rest of the pack: 1) Super responsive. Jeremy contacted me within hours of my email. Other landscapers took days, never got me estimates, or didn't respond at all. 2) Really listened to what I was trying to accomplish and worked with me to figure out how to get there. Jeremy didn't try to tell me what I should do or want- he made sure he understood what I wanted, and made suggestions that could accomplish that. 3) Reasonably priced and efficient. I got a better product for less than I paid previous landscapers. Jeremy and crew showed up on time and got work done quickly and thoroughly. The scope of the work I had done was pretty extensive- major tree pruning, sod installation, retaining wall/flower beds, spring clean-up, removal of overgrown bushes, installation of plants, concrete pad poured, and installation of a large natural stone drainage system (tying into existing drain system) to accommodate the beautiful natural slope of my yard that backs on to a green space with drainage to the marina. Previously, rain would funnel directly across my yard, dragging debris and piling it against my fence, and keeping grass from growing. Thanks to Jeremy and his exceptional crew and vision, water is funneled away from my yard in a form that's lovely to look at, and I have a yard full of grass for my dogs to enjoy. I highly recommend South Side Specialties for all your landscape/yard work needs. I will definitely use them again for any work we need.

They were fantastic and they were very responsive. They had a reasonable cost and did a great job.

They would be here in 2 weeks. It was excellent. They did a good job. They were professional. They cleaned up after cutting everything. They put back everything after their work. They were locally owned.

They were excellent. He was nice. He was professional. He was clean. He was on time. He did what they supposed to do. He was an outstanding guy. He was very good.

Jeremy and his team arrived on time and were very efficient. The area was picked up well and the price was very reasonable. I will hire them again when I need more work done.
