Gene and I would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation for the beautiful landscaping work you’ve done for us. Spectacular job!

We wanted to let you know just how pleased we are with the landscaping job. From the time of the destruction of our rotting wooden retaining wall through the construction of the stone wall and the patio, the crews were always nice, knowledgeable, respectful and polite. The primary employees who worked here were Todd Gusler and Mike Paynotta. There were times that additional staff was working here and every one of them was great. Good bunch of employees.

And the workmanship! We are so thrilled. The wall is exactly what we wanted and more. The wall is absolutely beautiful. A work of art!

We will continue to tell our friends and neighbors that we are happy, satisfied and thrilled with the results.

Thanks again.

I want to thank you for getting to our yard so quickly. We just met with Tim on Monday and he thought it might be two weeks. So we were pleasantly surprised when you came on Friday! Please let Tim know that the men who did the work here did an excellent job. We could not be more pleased with the mulch on the bank. We appreciate your good work.
Thank you,

Thank you,

Dear Mr. Phelps,

On behalf of the Roanoke Council of Garden Clubs I would like to thank you for all of the support that you have given us. You have planted our trees and shrubs. Our grounds have never looked as pretty until you helped by walking through and pointing out areas that needed our attention. Your continued guidance in creating and keeping healthy beds around the gazebo, the parking lots, bumper beds and the Teddy Bear Magnolia bed have made our grounds so beautiful.

One of the Roanoke Council of Garden Clubs missions is to encourage civic beautification. You have helped us immensely in achieving this goal and we are forever grateful to you and your company for your continued involvement in helping us to be successful. You are truly a “Friend of the RCGC.”

With great appreciation,

Sarah Belle Parrott, President

Tim and his employees are VERY knowledgeable and respectful of your needs, requests and property. They try to accommodate your wishes as much as possible. If they cannot, they provide a reason and a workable alternative. The result has ALWAYS been positive and well done! We are extremely pleased with all that they have accomplished for us.

Mr. Phelps -- I wanted to thank you and your crew for many years of excellent service with our home lawn, but our son would like to take over complete care starting this year. He would like to start saving money to buy himself a car!

Once again, thanks...and please feel free to use us as a reference...We would recommend you highly.

Thanks,

Hello,

Just wanted to let Tim know how wonderful the Church looks with the new landscaping. Wow, what an improvement. Everyone at Wed. night Bible study commented on how nice it looks and I'm sure when the rest see it they will agree. Thanks for all your hard work. I promise I will do my best to keep the kids out of it Sat. during egg hunt.
