We had our front and backyard done this past May/June by Ocean Landscaping and was very disappointed. First of all we agreed on some things like putting in new grass (even in the contract) for the price but Navy didn't want to do it in the end saying that he only meant changing the grass in the backyard; the planting that he promised to do (we bought all the trees and plants)was done very poorly ( crooked line grass and boxwood, no top soil or mulch)our existing grass was damaged by the heavy equipment, gravel etc and we ended up paying him extra money to put in new grass and bring in some top soil and after another garden centre for more top soil and mulch to finish the job; plus paid extra someone else to plant some cedar trees he promised to come back to plant for us.
The stone work was done properly but the planting less than satisfactory and we had to work hard several wkds to fix and finish the job. Navy told us everything we wanted to hear at the beginning but when it came to the actual work he cut the corners and did whatever he wanted. We were happy with the price in the beginning but after adding all the extra costs we did not do any deals and had a lot of headache; I would not recommend the experience to anyone.
