Need Input on Landscaping Contractors
 
We are looking to change our landscaping.

We are interviewing companies and would like input on good and bad companies.

We have just spoken with Ron's Landscaping to date.

You can pm or post here any positive or negative experiences with contractors.

Thank you.

We've used Jason Schmidt Landscaping (352-425-6361) for several sizable projects, and are extremely pleased with their work.

Ron does a good job.
I can also recommend Sabrina McGowan who does some very creative things with landscaping.

Stay away from Mansfield. Everything he does looks the same!

We are using Native Cuts. They come out, photograph your home, come back later with computerized photos of exactly how it will look when complete. We watched them do a few neighbors and then talked with them about their quality and they are top notch. In addition to the one year guarantee they give you they offer a lifetime guaranty on the plants if you choose to use them to maintain the landscape as far as fertilization, pest and weed control, etc. Very knowledgeable and they will be sure that your irrigation system is working the way it should for your new plantings and lawn. They are not the lowest price out there nor are they the highest but you get what you pay for. We had contractors coming here drawing on a piece of paper and saying they can start tomorrow. Native Cuts usually is out 4 to 6 weeks before they can begin.

We use Jireh. They do a lot of the Premier Homes (gives you an idea on the trust factor) and also provide ongoing maintenance and service products. In addition the have a location where you can meet to design, find the type of trees and plants you like and many variations of hardscape. They will not be low bid, but they did our's 3 years ago and have been been standing behind us ever since.

We used Terra Scape and were very happy with them. Got quotes from them, Jireh and KB...liked all 3 equally but Terra Scape had the best price.

I would NOT recommend Village Palm on CR 466

Jamie’s Landscaping also does a nice job.

Just some friendly advice. When you ask for contractor recommendations (and receive a response/recommendation), take a look at how many posts the person making the response has. It's interesting how many people recommending various companies have only a handful of posts.

Absolutely, and thank you for the reminder.
