I have 2 suggestions: do not pay any amount up front. Pay everything when the job is completed. And check with Seniors vs Crime 352-689-4600, before hiring anyone. They can tell you how many complaints have been filed against each company.

Brandon is over priced and doesn't do what he says. Like dealing with a used car dealer.

Do these companies also do repair and maintenance of landscape water features? We need a consult regarding a water feature, a DIY garden irrigation system and landscape lighting. Also need a recommendation for hot tub repair. Thanks!

So few salespeople are so busy talking that they never as the customer what they have in mind.

As a customer when you want, need, the job done can change the price and the quality.
When, the phone is ringing off the hook you will obviously be quoted a high price.

Plants. They all look nice at the garden center grown by experts under perfect conditions. Are you willing to cover marginally hearty plants all the time? If, not don't buy them. You will find plants for sale that just won't grow here. Peony plants. I had a great collection of them where we used to live. You will see them for sale at all the box stores. It is just not cold enough for them. They need a dormant period to bloom.
