"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!"

Seeding is less expensive up front compared to sod installation. However, sod provides an instant lawn with minimal maintenance, while seeded lawns require extended care and can take up to two years to fully establish.
“To determine how much sod you need, first calculate your yard’s total area by sketching your layout and multiplying each section’s length by its width. Standard sod pieces measure 2 feet by 1½ feet, and one pallet covers 450 square feet. Divide your total square footage by this pallet coverage figure and consult your sod provider for precise estimates to ensure you purchase the correct amount.”
“New sod develops a strong root system within 10 to 14 days, so it is not ready for heavy use until this period is complete. Do not walk on or disturb the sod during this critical phase, as premature activity delays healthy rooting. Allow the grass to settle firmly to secure long-term lawn durability.”
“You can begin limited, careful use of your lawn two weeks after installation to allow initial rooting. However, refrain from heavy traffic or frequent mowing until six weeks have passed and the roots have fully anchored the sod. Consistent watering during this period is essential to promote robust development and long-term stability.”
“After installation, monitor your sod closely for balanced color and uniform moisture. Watch for brown patches or uneven growth, as these indicate dehydration or nutrient deficiencies. Maintaining a steady watering schedule and ensuring the sod remains undisturbed during its early stages are essential steps to guarantee robust root development and a healthy, attractive lawn.”
“The best time to install sod is during spring or fall. These seasons offer optimal temperatures and moisture levels that ensure rapid rooting and strong establishment. Avoid installing sod in winter when the ground is frozen or in summer when extreme heat can dehydrate the grass, as proper conditions are critical for a durable lawn.”
