My girlfriend and I met one of the Little Creek Landscaping landscape architects, Will, at the Home and Garden show in March of this year. We met several landscaping companies at the show, but what impressed us about Will and Little Creek Landscaping was their breadth of knowledge about all aspects of softscaping and hardscaping. He was polite, informative, confident, but not pushy. We had several consultations with other landscaping companies from the show, including Little Creek Landscaping, but we were still the most impressed with Will and his team. We met a few more times and worked together on a design plan for our whole property, using elements of my original designs into Will's plan. He adhered to our budget, and offered many different options that would give us the biggest bang for our buck. Little Creek Landscaping's associated nursery, Sherwood Nurseries, had nearly all of the trees and perennials that we incorporated into our plan, with only a few that had to be sourced from other nurseries. By having their own nursery, all the plants were cheaper than those sourced elsewhere.
When the Little Creek employees arrived, they were all polite and approachable and it was fun to get to know all of them over the week they were on-site. Will and the crew worked well, despite recurrent inclement weather, and adapted well to any changes that had to be made as the project progressed. Issues that arose with the patio and planting arrangement were dealt with quickly, as Will refused to leave us unhappy with any aspects of the project. He repeatedly told us that us being unhappy about their work was unacceptable and that they would do everything they could to fix any issues we may have had.
In the end, all garbage was taken away and the sidewalks, roads, and neighbouring yards were cleaned, leaving no signs of the construction that had been their prior.
We now have a patio, a walkway, sod, 9 trees, and a bazillion perennials! It's been several weeks since completion, and everything is growing like crazy and we even received a Starbucks gift card from our developer for having such an attractive yard!
All told, we were persistently impressed with the knowledge base and workmanship of everyone from Little Creek Landscaping.
