"Andrew is extremely flexible and open to suggestions from his customers he will let you know when your suggestions can or cannot be done it was a great experience all the way around I will definitely use him again when needed."

"Calling, setting up appointment to get the estimate, getting the estimate, and having the services performed close to the agreed-to date - only off by one day - all went very well. One delivered tree was different than what was on the estimate I guess due to unavailability, but it was similar. Several of the trees either had a blight or had damaged trunks (one was gouged coming off the truck) and one and quot;didn't look very goodand quot; according to the main person delivering and planting, although they are warranties for a year (our prior landscaper warrantied trees for 2 years, so this was a little disappointing too). The trimming did not really go as I expected. The person who did the trimming hadn't talked to the person who did the estimating, so he didn't know what was to be done. I was home that day, so I was able to tell him. Although, when I told him the plan that his boss had determined for the tree (that had some dead branches, and that his boss said would be cut way back, even on top), he said he didn't know what his boss had in mind, so he just took off the dead branches. Overall, I don't think he was very skilled at trimming the bushes and tree. He also told me to put tree wrap over the gouge on the tree they damaged getting off the truck, but another person in their office told me a few days later to take it off. I was also a little disappointed that the trees were all in pots (indicating they were grown in pots) and not burlap (grown in the ground), so I don't think the overall quality of the tree stock was as good as I've gotten from other places. One of the pine trees also has a damaged/dying top branch, which might be an issue next year if it loses its leader. Now for the billing process...I had given a $1000 dollar down payment a month before the work was scheduled, and which was promptly cashed, but when the final invoice arrived in the mail a few days after the job was done, the downpayment was not listed or deducted! So I made a special visit to their store to get their records straightened out, taking proof of my cashed check, since I didn't think it could have been straightened out very easily over the phone. They took care of the problem quickly, recognizing that they obviously had a glitch in their bookkeeping. So, overall, I give then a grade of B. They were personable and responsive, but the overall quality of product, knowledge of crew, and error in billing keeps me from giving a higher rating. They were still better than some others I have used in the past, and will likely do business with them again, but probably not exclusively. <br />"

"Tracy responded right away when we called for an estimate. He was very nice and seemed to know what he was doing, showing us samples and telling us what he could do. However, he was very slow in getting back to us after that. The last time I called him on the phone, we discussed some possible changes and I told him I wanted to be on his calendar for August. Then I did not hear from him again. No contract came and no further contact after several weeks. Finally I decided it would be better to hire someone who was more responsive. <br />"

"The crew arrived on time with all needed materials.  They worked professionally and efficiently for 2 and one-half days to complete this project.  The contractor, Clint, had gone through the construction techniques with me ahead of time, and left me some literature to read.  The walls are very secure with crushed rock, sand, fabric, and heavy mesh to provide drainage and stability.  They carefully transplanted three trees that had been in the ground three seasons,  and they look good.  They replaced our old dirt and clay with a thick layer of topsoil.  To gain access to the site, they needed to drive tractors over the lawn, but all of that area was regraded and re-sodded, so it looks great.  All members of the crew were polite and business-like, and they worked very hard and very well as a team.  Our neighbors were impressed by the quality and speed of the project.  The crew cleaned up the area, including sweeping the street.  I would recommend Custom Retaining Walls of Rochester to anyone needing retaining walls. <br />"

"Excellent work. Accepted job on short notice, cleaned up after job was done. Provided written estimate and adjusted on the fly as I added more work. Jack is polite and skilled. I will definitely hire again."

"Nick came and gave me an estimate on a Tuesday and took the trees down the next day. This was part 1 of 2. He will be installing a fence, removing a concrete patio area and fixing the really ugly flower beds. He has been very helpful through this whole process. Because of his prompt service I have hired him to do some tree work at my rental property."

"Good project.  Kept in touch as it went along.  Consulted with me as issues arose that had options.  I was satisfied with the overall job.  There is still some to be finished but I have been informed of the plans."

"The crew showed up on the date and time promised and they were awesome! They pushed all of our existing landscaping rock back toward the house to make room for the curb machine, then pulled up and disposed of the existing edging. I even caught one of them pulling weeds from out of the rocks! :-) The job was completed in less than a day. One small problem cropped up in that a 10 foot uphill section of the curbing was slightly crooked. It took one phone call and they were back tearing it out and redoing it and it now looks great. Over the summer we did projects with 4 contractors totaling over $16,000 and this was the only contractor we would ever use again. They were wonderful and we could not be more pleased with the curbing. It keeps all of the landscaping rock where it belongs, enhances the flower beds, gives the yard a neat, well-kept look and makes mowing much easier. Owner Mark Westerman is a true professional which is very rare to find in the landscaping contractor field these days! <br />"

"We had a major job done four years ago that was $10,000. I will continue to use them. I don't necessarily see room for improvement with them."

"Each evening when I see what was accomplished during the day I am surprised by the fast progress. It is delightful! <br /> Mr. Davidson asks me if I want to see how the work is progressing. He is very patient when I change my mind about something. <br /> He is excellent at explaining why something needs to be done a certain way, and explaining the basics of landscape design. Instead of a yard I am now seeing the house and yard as a whole piece. <br /> It can be unsettling to undertake a project of this size. Mr. Davidson is encouraging, and describes the pace of the project, and discusses costs as we go. I trust him to do what he says when he says he'll do it, and he does more than that. If something doesn't seem quite right he fixes it. <br /> He also has great taste and is using beautiful materials that are really fun to see. I look forward to living with them for years. <br /> I plan to update this review when the job is finished, it is about halfway right now. <br /> <br /> Finished, for winter, and beautiful! Entries are bricked, walkways are graceful, many grading problems solved. Patrick Davidson is terrific to work with. Even though the original plan was really nice he kept improving on it as the work went on. Neighbors are glad the landscape is so sharp, and strangers in cars have slowed to give drive-by compliments. <br /> <br /> I am so impressed, as are many friends and family members who have admired his work. <br /> <br /> Thank you Patrick!"
