Mansfield Landscaping: YES!
 
I first used Mansfield Landscaping a year ago after seeing the unique design work Steve Mansfield did at a neighbor's house. The tree specimens used were more impressive than those typically found in our village and this was the result of Mansfield having a massive inventory and variety of trees, shrubs, and other landscaping materials at his huge nursery in Yalaha-about 30 minutes from The Villages and right next door to the famous Yalaha Bakery. After getting over my initial reservations about Steve's quirky personality, I was thrilled to discover the genuine Steve-a truly unusual individual; a caring and considerate character who gives personal service and attention to his clients! My first job turned out so well that I recently used him and his hard-working crew again to re-landscape an entire house, including the fabrication of a magnificent water fall and stream.While there are many companies doing business in The Villages, Steve's knowledge of the landscaping profession combined with competitive pricing and his emphasis on making his clients happy and satisfied is proven by accepting no money until the job is completely finished. Steve "cranks" out the best landscape design and implementation in The Villages.

Steve
 
If you listen to Steve Mansfield, you will find an honest man. He is an artist!

We saw the work he did next door to us and hired him to do our front yard. Loved it so much we hired him to do our back. We now want him to do some islands for us!

I've looked at some of his privacy walls for kissing lanais.... WOW... just WOW... I can take some pictures and post if anyone is interested in seeing them.

In fact.... I'm going to get one and post it!!!! Be right back!

Thanks for the email... You're right, if people would just listen to Steve, you will see he has a "heart of gold".

WOW!

privacy walls
 
I would love to see what he does for privacy walls. We are building on the golf course and noticed the next door neighbor who is building has put up a solid 5 ft wall all around their outdoor area. From our outdoor area, we will be looking at it. :( Not really sure why they put it up and cut off their golf course view but I am sure they have a reason. Unfortunately, it cuts a bit into our view and we will be looking to make it disappear as much as possible. The privacy magician will be most welcome :) Please post photos.

I already posted. It's the plants behind the Lanai. They give you a sense of the tropics as well as privacy.

I need to take pictures of my neighbors. An even different way of privacy... The lot that sold us on Steve!

Very nice. I don't have to look any further. Every comment about this guy has been more than positive...and a picture is worth a thousand words. ..love it when I don't have to do my own research :) thank you for posting.

It's funny...
 
It's funny how the truly creative people sometimes lack in people skills, i.e. they are quirky. :thumbup:

Thanks
 
Thanks for the feedback- AngieFox was very happy with his work.

I hear he is a nice man that will work within your Budget. Did you find that to be the case?

Our funds are limited from "The Village new home drain- I was looking for a landscaper that could be a work in progress for us.

A Theme that could be built on? Or I may be just dreaming.

Do you have some pics
