Parkland Landscapes

I paid for a landscape plan that I did not use and have no use for. Parklane Landscape was the first company that I approached for our landscape project so I was not aware of the protocols. I paid $1,650 for drawings that we have no use for. The initial cost estimate I was provided turned out to be double the amount when the drawings were presented.

I am not happy with how they managed the initial stage of the project as I paid out on something that I have no use for.

The other companies I consulted with provided me with a clear
estimate prior to drawing the landscape design so there is no cost incurred if no contract is entered to.

We met Anna at the Home Show last and managed to get a design meeting with her in the early spring of 2013. My husband and I are very particular about everything and we were actively involved in the entire process. We wanted to transform our 25x50 backyard that was simply sod into a mature lush oasis. Anna designed a beautiful back yard space. The sod and dirt removal took two days, and although we ran into some rain delays, everyone persevered. Once the job started a couple weeks later, Cassie took the lead on the installation of stone and plant materials - that took 6 days in the sweltering heat wave. The end result is spectacular. The barnboard slabs that Anna sourced for the lounge patio are unique and look amazing; they complement the flagstone for the dining patio. We did our own irrigation, lighting, and water feature to help manage the costs. We originally budgeted $20K for the project, however, we ended up coming in at $50K. The overages were worth it as we have an incredible back yard in the city. Guests are overwhelmed at the transformation. I highly recommend Park Lane for their dedication and professionalism.

The design process was worth the cost, the project turned out exactly as I had envisioned. Beautiful patio and deck! I herd they were expensive, and to be fair we did get lower quotes, but the lack of extras, smooth construction process and extremely professional service more than made up for the cost. Especially considering all the horror stories I have herd about extras when it comes to my friends doing landscaping.
