"My review of this company is a conundrum. The workers are dedicated, hard-working, and courteous individuals that produce excellent results. The project management/billing procedures were unprofessional and rustrating if not insulting. I found 4th Generation on Angie’s List and contacted them for an estimate to remove ivy from our residential property. Josh was scheduled (and was confirmed) to come out at 4:30pm on Thursday, but instead showed up at 2pm while I was at work. I had to explain over the phone the details of the project, and he was unable to provide me even a ballpark estimate. We did have a LOT of ivy, but this company specializes in ivy removal, so you would expect them to be able to provide at least a ballpark estimate. Hesitantly, I agreed to let them attack it for four hours ($800) and make a determination from there on how to proceed. After another call at the four hour mark, I agreed to let them finish the whole day Friday. The workers did a great, thorough job, and made a good dent in the ivy. Josh asked me if I could pay by check, and I provided him a check for the full $1800. Josh contacted me Saturday morning asking if they could come back that day and work on it some more; I agreed. They arrived on time and continued their great work. I asked Josh to pay by card on this job, but he would not allow me stating I had to pay by check. The workers on-site told me customers pay by card all the time and payment wasn’t even due immediately, but Josh told me I had to pay by check. Then, he told me I could pay by card on any following jobs?! How can you just make up rules on when certain payment methods are accepted? You either accept a form of payment or you don’t. I just bit my tongue and wrote him another check for $1400. Josh contacted me again Monday morning asking if they could come back out and work more on it. I asked him to provide me an estimate of time remaining since I was already in for $3200; he agreed to call me at 10am when he arrived on site and with 4 men. At 2:30pm, he finally calls me and says they’ve had 5 guys working on it for 4 hours and need 2 more hours to finish. Frustrated, I asked him why he added another man to the job without asking and why he did not call at 10am as promised. His reply to adding 5th man - “it’s just another few hundred dollars”. Seriously? You can’t just change our agreement without checking and then have the audacity to tell me it’s just a few hundred dollars extra out of my wallet. Again, I bit my tongue and told him to just finish the job. I just attributed it to Josh being young and I thought maybe he doesn’t have a great deal of experience yet; overall he was pleasant to talk to and friendly, but I did not appreciate the way he handled things. Later, Josh texted me asking to contact Kathy to submit card payment, which I planned to do the next day during business hours. The next morning, Josh and/or Kathy call, text, and voicemail me no less than 5 times between 8am and noon, while I’m in meetings at work, trying to get me to submit payment for work that was completed 18 hours ago. They acted worse than a collection agency with the unnecessary, borderline harassing phone calls in such rapid succession. I had to step out of my meeting to let Josh know I would call Kathy on my lunch break. Of course, when I call Kathy, she’s not in the office nor able to take my payment. Josh then asks me for my name and email so they can invoice me. Why couldn’t they just act like a normal company and do that the first time, or second time, or third time? Ironically, the online invoice clearly accepts card payments and shows they have a Net 30 day payment policy (meaning you have up to 30 days to pay for provided services without penalty/interest). So why in the world is Josh blowing up my phone less than 4 hours into the work day after service completed? And why could they not invoice me for previous work? The whole thing was quite unprofessional and the way they treated me from a customer service perspective after spending $4700 in four days, makes me not want to deal with them again. That is a shame, because the workers are fantastic (and have better customer service skills than management). There are a lot of great reviews for this company, and I wish I could have been another, but the lack of following an agreement, not following their own payment policies, and acting crazy like a collection agency when I’ve done nothing but pay them immediately for thousands of dollars worth of work (and even bought the workers lunch one day) ruined it. Maybe you’ll have better luck if you choose them; maybe I just am an anomaly. Five stars for the workers; 2 stars for management."

The Earthscape Company is a locally owned, full service, landscaping company serving the Charlotte area since 2002. We have made it our passion to assist our commercial and residential clients in lending beauty to their outdoor spaces.
"Earthscape contacted me within minutes of my requesting a quote. Their operations manager was at my home at 11am the next day and was able to give me a proposal in writing for the project before he left. The work commenced three days later. The installers did a fantastic job of removing my pinestraw, installing metal edging and putting down mulch. They even added extra areas without charge that were not including in the proposal! From beginning to end, everyone with whom I interacted from Earthscape was lovely: kind, professional and happy to be doing the job...the kind of people I would love to have as neighbors. I cannot recommend The Earthscape Company highly enough and have already recommended them to two neighbors that have projects Earthscape could do. Would that everyone that provides in-person services were so fantastic!"

We provide lawn maintenance and landscaping services. What makes us stand out from other landscapers? The quality of the work we provide and the excellent customer service. We been in the lawn and landscape industry for 20+ years. We are a owner-operated business.
"I needed help with some shrub removal and planting in my front landscape, and got several quotes. I already had the plants, soil, fertilizer, and materials needed, but am not physically able to dig by myself. I had a means of disposing of the removed materials, so there was no haul-away included. Along with the planting, I needed to have a decorative stone wall repaired because it was starting to lean. Again, labor only. I was looking for a company that could do both. The bids for the planting work, which was straightforward and simple labor, were in the range of $400, except for New East Landscapes. Their price was much higher for the planting work, but they assured me they could do the planting within a couple of days and also repair the stone wall within 2 weeks for what seemed to be a very fair additional price. Because they seemed to know exactly what to do with the wall, and showed pictures of other projects they had done, I decided to pay the higher price so I could have one company complete both tasks. They emailed written quotes for the work, which I signed and returned. They told me the time they would come to do the planting work on Sunday, a couple of days later. The work on the wall would be done when they could fit it in, but within two weeks. On Sunday April 9, they arrived more than an hour late, so late that I was concerned they weren't coming. They did the planting work which took them less than 1.75 hours to complete. They clearly knew their plants, placed them where I asked, and the work was competent, but this job did not actually require 3 workers, which is what they brought. I paid them for that work and asked to schedule the wall repair. Xavier told me he would call me to schedule the time within two weeks and would find out the cost of a few stones that were needed to support the wall. He never called me back. I attempted to follow up with them by several phone calls, which went to voicemail that was not accepting messages. Also sent text messages and email. No response of any kind from them, and it has now been a month since they promised to return to complete the work. The wall is looking increasingly unstable and the work still needs to be done."

Permit requirements for outdoor lighting vary depending on your location and project scope. Simple fixture replacements don't require permits, but projects involving new electrical circuits, extensive trenching, or significant system expansions often do. Local building departments establish these requirements, and many professional electricians handle permit applications as part of their service package.
The timeline for outdoor lighting installation varies based on project complexity. Basic systems might require only one to two days for complete installation, while extensive lighting networks with numerous fixtures and complex wiring needs could extend to a week or longer. Weather conditions, property accessibility, and soil characteristics can all influence how quickly professionals can complete your installation.
Outdoor lighting offers both practical and aesthetic benefits that many homeowners find valuable. Beyond enhancing nighttime visibility and security, well-designed lighting can highlight architectural features and extend outdoor living hours. While installation represents a significant investment, quality lighting may potentially increase property appeal and could contribute to overall home value.
Some outdoor lighting projects are suitable for homeowner installation, particularly simple solar fixtures or low-voltage systems that plug into existing outlets. However, projects requiring new electrical connections, permanent wiring, or integration with home electrical systems demand professional expertise. Electrical work carries inherent safety risks, and improper installation could create fire hazards or code violations.
The operating cost for outdoor lighting depends primarily on your fixture types, bulb selection, and usage patterns. Energy-efficient LED fixtures consume significantly less electricity than traditional incandescent or halogen alternatives. Controlling your lighting with timers, photocells, or motion sensors can further reduce energy usage by ensuring lights operate only when needed or beneficial.
