Ground & Garden -

Vinson Lee

We needed to scrape our entire backyard, which consisted of random rocks, dirt, some grass, old plants, etc - the backyard had not been touched for approximately 15 years and it was a mess. We hired Mark Lung at Ground & Garden, and could not be happier. Mark and his crew were extremely buttoned up, professional and budget conscious, and they completely transformed our yard. The difference is night and day. We now have multi-level patio space with pavers, manicured landscaping and irrigation and it looks incredible. Mark had ideas for the yard that we had not considered - he was a huge creative asset, and his crew knocked it out of the park. I would not go with anyone else but G&G for a backyard - or any yard - project!

Good design work / overpriced maintenance

We hired Ground & Garden to do a large (to us) landscaping job for about $70k - new sod, masonry, new decorative plants, etc. We worked closely with Kate Higdon and were generally happy with the result. One small complaint is that the plants they selected to frame our front walk have been yellowing/dead-looking all summer.

At the end of the project, I realized they didn't install weed barriers. So I asked Kate about it and she said they don't do that and our beds would have to be hand-weeded. Ok, I thought, they're the experts.

She recommended we get quarterly or monthly gardening care (weeding, pruning, mulch, fertilization, aeration, ant control, irrigation adjustments, etc) and their maintenance crew could get us a quote.

Getting a quote from their maintenance crew was a bit of a pain, but when I eventually did, I learned that they, in fact, do NOT offer quarterly or monthly gardening service unless we ALSO hire them to also mow and blow our lawn weekly... total price $644 per month. For a 2,000 sqft yard. In case you didn't fall over upon reading that, that's a lot.

On the plus side, they have uniformed technicians, I guess.

It’s a pleasure to use Ground & Garden for all my lawn maintenance and landscaping needs. Today Edwin’s team was working in 103 degree weather and 95% of us would quit our first day on the job! They have an eye for detail and my yard always looks great! They even bring up my garbage can that’s a 100 yards away from my home on 2 acres!!

Stacy did a fall porch makeover for us, and it looks fantastic. She was quick with communicating to schedule. She arrived right on time with lots of plants and pumpkins. She was friendly to talk to and full of energy. I've never had a really great seasonal porch before, and I love it!

Ground & Cover is a company I have worked with for 40+ years and I have always found them to be professional and reliable. The owner is involved in the business and has always done everything+ to make us happy. I wholeheartedly recommend this company.

The landsacping business at Ground & Garden is the best in Austin! We (JB Goodwin Realtors) use them to manage all of our commercial properties as well as our home on Lake Austin. They go above and beyond to take care of us. Their work is exceptional, their crews are professional and hard working, their customer service is top notch, and their prices are competitive. You get what you pay for. We've looked at numerous other companies over the years, but have remained committed to Ground & Garden for over 3 decades as our preferred landscaping vendor.

We have used G&G (formerly Perfect Lawns) for the past 20 years. We would not use anyone else. Brent and his family and employees are like family to us. We have the most beautiful yard in the neighborhood.
