Default Landscaping contractors

I have two good landscaping estimates but would like recommendations from people who have used these contractors before I make a decision. If anyone has anything to say ( positive or negative) about Jason Schmidt's or Joshua Coynes' (C& G Landscaping) services I would greatly appreciate your input.

Also, if there is a way on "Talk of the Villages" to access this sort of information directly I would appreciate even more someone letting me know how to do that.

I thank you in advance for any and all help you might offer.

I have not used either but did have landscaping done by S.McGowan. Sabrina was highly recommended on TOTV and I too would highly recommend her. Sabrina and her husband Patrick have been in the landscaping business for over 12 years and their company does beautiful work. Just a suggestion.

I had my courtyard villa recently landscaped but I used Terrascape, they did a great job.

You're on the right track coming to this site for info. Before moving to TV I had a whole notebook of two years of research for just about every subject I would probably encounter. The first day in my new villa I had the place completely painted inside by Investment Painters in 8 hours. They did an excellent job and I chose them all because of this site and doing searches.

In the blue bar above see the word 'search', click on that and a window will pop up, type in your search words. For example, for my wife the other day I typed in 'hair stylist', 'hair dresser', and so on and found dozens of threads about the subject.

Yes, but did you find a GOOD hairdresser?
If so, please let us know.

We have used S McGowan also and were pleased with her work. Her crew was polite and did a great job. We really liked her design in front of our home and she did some work in back also because we have a wall. In the spring we would like to add to the work done by the wall so that it will be complete. If you would like to see her work you can pm me.

Another for Sabrina and Patrick. Great work and a very reasonable price. They did almost every home on our block in Pennecamp. Take a ride down Ashwood Run to check out the homes.

Sabrina's crew was in my yard today and did their usual outstanding job. She, and Patrick, run a really good landscaping organization. It's a pleasure to do business with them.
