What Customers Say
“Terry and crew did a spectacular job with our yard. Although it may of taken a while, it was highly worth it. Terry was extremely easy to reach and communicate with. This is what sets him above the rest in my opinion. It is nice to know that he is willing to talk even if there are schedule mishaps. Our dog kennel slab, which was probably the toughest to complete for him and his crew, cost him a little bit extra than what he had originally quoted, but Terry didn't charge us any extra. He stuck to the original quote he gave us and so my wife & I only had to pay Terry to what was agreed to. This was really nice and definitely did not make us feel like we were having the rug pulled out from under us. Thank you, Terry especially for this. Our yard, that was once a wasteland, turned into something that my wife and I can work with and we can fully say we are pleased with the work that he and his crew put into it. I would highly recommend Landscape Living Environments to anyone who is on the fence of choosing a landscaper.”
“Landscape Living did an outstanding job making my dreams come true. Terry designed an awesome layout for my front yard. My family and I absolutely love it. Terry also installed extra grass and dirt to raise grade against our foundation. We have received so many compliments from our neighbors in our community. Terry is such a pleasure to work with. His crew did an amazing job. They were absolutely nice and professional. I absolutely recommend that people hire this company for landscaping projects!”
“Terry helped us recreate our landscaping today and everything looks amazing. We appreciate his recommendations on plants that were best suited for our area. He followed through with each step of the process perfectly. We would use him and his business again!”
“I am so pleased with my newly landscaped front flower beds and borders that Terry and his crew created. It turned out great! My neighbors agree. From start to finish I was impressed by Terry's commitment to make sure I was happy with the job. He was very responsive and a pleasure to deal with. When it is time to start the backyard project I'll definitely be giving Landscape Living another call!”
“Had an total rework of our landscape plants including install of new planting bed rock border, install of new trees, repair of waterfall fountain including new liner and plumbing, re-install of low voltage spot lighting. We're on a Ranchette and need low maintenance so Terry suggested we stick with what works best in Texas. He designed a beautiful flowing shrubbery plan with color, texture, and hardiness for our area, including native boulders, Muhly grass, Chinese fringe flower, Vitex, Texas Redbud, Mugo pine and at our request Japanese Black Pine. Also installed a large Live Oak and October Glory Red Maple and a Mexican Plum. We paid to have plan drawn out to scale which he credits from the price of the job if you hire him. We both love the outcome of his design. Hopefully pictures will do the finished product justice. Terry was always responsive to texts and happy to give advise. His ideas are great, as he has extensive experience in Dallas. His crew is great also. Son Trevor a delightful young man along with Justin and his irrigation and rock guys always willing to jump in to any job and get it done quickly and correct. Punch list was finished up quickly and job site picked u”
“Job Details Note: I did increase the scope but it was done before work started (I.e. added shed & pad, increase patio size). 1. Replace and extend retaining wall, level yard, add drainage 2. Replace and extend Patio 3. 12x12 attached shed and pad 4. Board on Board Fence Payment schedule 70% by start 10% 1 week after start 30% after completion and acceptance. Total time from signing to firing was 6 Months not 8 weeks. There was a week for winter ice days as well as many rainy days that also contributed to the delay. This could have been avoided had the original timeframe been met. High-level issues with Living Landscape: 1.Too few of employees to run the # of projects they have 2.Too many projects running all at once and not in order. 3.Runs out of materials often 4.Does not work a whole week or allow workers to work full days. Does not dedicate enough time to any one project. 5. Mismanagement of funds received for materials and has to do other jobs to make up for it and buy remaining materials. 6.Communicates up to a point and then stops when things start going south 7.Cannot keep employees 8.Quality of work was far from meeting expectation 9.Doesn’t do what he says and ”
“After our initial contractor didn't stick within our budget and kept telling us we were all good, I had to find another. Finding Terry was great! Terry not only has done great work for us, the entire backyard and will soon do our outdoor kitchen, he conducted himself professionally. Everything was communicated, all the Is and It's dotted and crossed. Literally, any changes to the contract were specified, priced and communicated ahead of time. I will be using Landscape Living exclusively for outdoor projects from here on out and I recommend you do the same, you wont be disappointed!”
“Terry and his crew did a complete replacement of our landscaping. We wanted something very different from what we had, but we weren't really sure what. Terry worked with us to come up with a design that is very creative, but also very beautiful, functional, and easy to maintain. In short, it was exactly what we wanted and needed. He and his crew was always very responsive, flexible, and professional. Terry was extremely good at figuring out how to do what we wanted, but to do it in an economical and practical way. We are extremely pleased with the results and highly recommend this company for your next landscaping project, whatever it might be.”
“If I could rate them a 0 I would. I have been trying to get the projects I hired Terry for, over a year and a half ago, finished. He is incredibly unprofessional and not responsive at all. He has one excuse after another. I normally would not post such a scathing review but after giving him nearly $10k of my very hard earned and saved money, I don't have a single project at 100% completion. Terry and his crew were to install new landscaping in the front of my house, replace my fence and build a new deck, but nothing at all has been completed. I am beside myself since it took so long time as a single mom to save up the money to have this work done on my home and he has ultimately stolen from me. He went completely M.I.A for nearly a year and it wasn't until I contacted the BBB before he would return my calls or messages. He promised everything would be completed by May 17th and it is now one week from that date and not a single bit of additional work has been done. I recommend looking at the BBB site for the full reviews on Landscape Living Environments. I trusted this man, as the owner of Landscape Living Environments and took his word (as well as a contract) stating all of the wo”
“I am so happy with Landscape Living Environments! Terry came to my home on Thursday to give me an estimate on a flower bed along the length of my back fence, and his crew was here on Friday to do it - and they did an amazingly beautiful job! Everyone was super professional, the work is high quality, and they were extremely friendly, efficient, and left everything clean. I love my new flower bed! Thanks to LLE for a wonderful new addition to my yard! I will definitely use them again when I need more landscaping work done, and highly recommend them!”
“I highly recommend Landscape Living. Terry was very responsive, knowledgeable, and professional. I had an outdoor kitchen built and a large rock bed installed. The finished product is beautiful. Terry communicated and updated me throughout the project. He made sure all work was performed to our liking and made adjustments where needed. I will be certainly be using Landscape Living for future projects.”
“Terry and his crew did a WONDERFUL job on my patio extension and building my pergola! This is something I have wanted since the day I have moved into my house and they more than exceeded my expectations!! Terry is a great communicator and kept me up to date during the entire project. There were some delays due to weather but I was never left in the dark and the project was still completed by the date that was promised! Beautiful, beautiful work!! I would recommend Terry and Landscape Living Environments to anyone!!”
“Landscape Living made my mud pit front yard into a paradise. I liked making a plan with Terry and seeing on paper the layout and design. Terry knows how to use rocks, mulch, grass, shrubs, and border to enhance the look. The transition was amazing. Terry and crew were professional and good to work with throughout the project and I’m happy with the results.”
“Landscape Living was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Terry gave us some great economical ideas to make our backyard landscaping so much more inviting and private. He was available anytime we needed him, and if we thought something wasn't right, he worked with us to make it right. The work started and finished on time and looks great! We will use this company again.”
“Terry was great to work with. Our backyard was nothing but dirt, and he helped us put together a plan to build a fun space for our kids to play. He really helped with picking the right trees, which was very important to us. Once the job was done, he personally gave me detailed instructions on how to care for the new sod and trees. Very nice guy.”
“I had landscaping edging put in, and some trees and shrubs. The rock Terry recommended looks really good, and the plants are doing well about 2 weeks later now. The black mulch gives it a professional, finished look. Terry made sure I knew how to take care of my new plants at the end of the job. Highly recommended!”
“Terry was very easy to work with and his crew did a great job. The recent rains held up the project by several weeks (obviously not his fault) and they ended up finishing the job on a Saturday morning to get it done. He responded to every text and call, which is practically unheard of with contractors these days. Once I get around to the backyard, Terry will be my first call!”
“Less than a year ago I gave a five star review for the work done by Terry and Landscape Living. Today, it’s a one star review. I’m only assuming that they’ve gone out of business. I’ve got a some plantings that are not doing well and according to Terry early in the summer, they’re under warranty. I’ve tried for nearly a month to get in touch. Nothing but crickets…no response regardless of my method to contact. Terry’s cell, company phone, texts, and emails. Zero response. Horrible service. Retract my review. Proceed with caution. They’ll take your money but don’t really want your business!!!”
“Landscape Living built a beautiful stone wall for our front flower bed and filled the beds with shrubs, plants and trees! The service was very professional and they built and installed everything to my liking. Details were very important to everyone working the site. I couldn’t be happier with the results! They also installed three larger trees in the front yard and built a river rock bed in a smaller bed near our home. I highly recommend Terry and his crew with Landscape Living!”
“Great Job and Great design. We hired Terry to transform our front drive with new landscape, chop stone bed boarders and lighting and He and his team did a Great job and exceeded our expectations I would recommend them in a heartbeat. Keep up the good work !!”
