This is my first YELP ever, and not to do one I would be remorse at best .Let me share my story with you especially if you have been calling ,negotiating with trying to get a quote on a landscape project. I am sure if you've done any checking you felt you were getting the shim shame thank you man run around where the Contractor instead of using pavers and earth tone rock the contractor wanted to use Cement and turn the yard to a concrete jungle .
My wife and I put are project on hold because after asking a question the quote got higher and more concrete .
So a couple weeks ago I was driving on E.Sunset heading towards Gibson when I drove by some landscape in front of a block long strip mall where a business had parked the High Performance custom vehicles to display. It caught my eye so much that I turned around pulled over , got out of my car photographed it and video recorded it so my wife could see it.
My wife was equally impressed and the next day even though it was raining set out to find out who this professional landscaper was. After knocking on several business doors I found out who it was Owner Sam of Landscapes of Las Vegas.
I called him and with in a half an hour on a saturday afternoon he came our gave me a verbal / approximate estimate.
He came back monday ,did additional measurements we told a couple additional this we wanted which included planting of some trees and plants we bought etc.
Sam is the most Honest business person you will ever meet , He was polite give his suggestion but always had you have the last say. He was not over budget, he did not nickel and dime us, he did come back for more money. He said he and his foreman Salvador along with a crew of 3-4 would be out out house on Monday at 7 am ad be done by 5pm or sooner onFriday.
I couldn't sign the contract fast enough.
like clockwork they arrived the following Monday and i had advised Sam its your gig your design you are the artist create.
Create indeed , I had several neighbors come up to me and said Bill Your going to make us look bad jokingly of course but what they wanted was sam's Business card.
With in two days our crap front and back yard started to turn into an oasis. A tropical paradise in the middle of Desert. We live in Henderson but you would swear when you turned onto our street you where in Summerlin .
When it get dusk and the well placed Malibu lights turn on the plants and boulders passerby's are in awe.
Some of the comments we received " Its like where in Palm Springs. Our Sons stated Totally awesome Dad and the other from New York relaxing this past week out by the pool and spa was like being at Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas.
Sam was truly a GOD Send if it was wasn't for Sam we would still be hand watering, tripping over old weed barrier coming up through our old weather worn out rock.
My name is Bill , cell is 702-927-4731 call me if you want a verbal testimonial. But the number you need is Sam's .

Sam Cracchiola owner / Manager of Landscapes of Las Vegas.
