Chris McKoy Landscape

An awesome job and excellent communication! I thought I knew what I wanted, but Chris provided some alternatives (that were cheaper than my initial plan) and was able to complete the work quickly and efficiently. I would not hesitate to use Chris McKoy Landscape again.

Our backyard landscape project was just completed and we are thrilled! Chris was very professional, yet friendly and personable. He and his hard-​working employees arrived every morning on time, and worked very diligently during some very hot days to complete the work. From creating beautiful Country Manor Stone planters, to appropriate irrigation and planting of selected trees, plants and flowers, to expertly installing our fountain — Chris and his crew made sure we were happy every step of the way! The work site was cleaned up and tidy every day before they left. I have to say, when Chris promptly returned my initial call, was honest about his busy schedule, and gave us a fair and competitive project estimate when he came out a few days later, we were eager to hire his company. We give the highest recommendation for this company!

We needed our front grass yard removed, and landscaped with rock, bark and plants. I know it’s summer, and it;s a busy time for landscapers, other landscapers would not return my calls but Chris called back the same day. Chris came to my house on time and listened to all my needs.
Chris and his crew showed up on time and completed the job when promised. Many companies start and stop a job to fit their schedule, Chris worked full time for three days til completion. Chris is very personable, hard working, and gave us a very fair price. I love our new yard and would highly recommend Chris.

Left a message for this business over 3 weeks ago, requesting a call back to setup an appointment to get a quote on my backyard landscaping. No call back. Disappointing.

I made an appointment with Chris for 10:30 AM. I sat around waiting and he never showed up. I looked at my phone at 11:10 AM and saw I had a voicemail. It was Chris saying he wouldn’t come out unless he heard from me. I called him back and left a message. He called me back and said that since I didn’t call him back, he moved on and would need to reschedule. Hey Chris.. .show up on time for your appointments. Why should it be my responsibility to have verbal confirmation before our meeting when we already have an appointment? If you get stood up by a potential customer when they don’t answer their door and you leave, you mark them on the list that you don’t want to work with them. But at least you show up. I’m sure you don’t break even financially and can make sure you charge an extra $ 40 for gas somewhere in your prices. If you do business with this guy just know he is so busy, he doesn’t really need you. I told him I wasn’t interested in rescheduling and wished him good luck and he said «don’t worry, I’m fine», which means he has enough people to not need luck. You better stay by your phone since he doesn’t keep appointments unless YOU answer your phone. Apparently he doesn’t trust you.

If you look in the dictionary under perfection you will see a picture of Chris Mckoy. He and his staff are professional, honest, and caring. They do an outstanding job for a fair price. They did a wonderful job in my back yard and made it look better than I could have imagined. Chris made sure everything was first class down to the smallest detail. The customer service and follow up was outstanding. Thank you Chris.

I needed a complete backyard facelift (cleanup, grading, paver patio, sprinkler system, and sod) and sprinkler system/​sod for my front yard. Chris listened to what I was asking for and when he and his team showed up they were timely, professional and most of all they did excellent work. My backyard now looks like a park and I’m so very happy. Thanks Chris!

I called Chris to see if he could come out to my house for an estimate on building a deck. I gave him rough measurement over the phone and he gave me an approx estimate of $ 22,000! I had never had a deck built before so I really did not know what to expect. I got 2 more (on site) estimates of 6 & 8 thousand. Without telling them who gave me my first estimate, they both laughed and said «sounds like he doesn’t want the job». I’m still wondering why a business man would shock a potential client out of a job without even coming over. Not a good way to start a business relationship.

Chris took on our very major backyard landscape project and did a great job. The work called for demolishing and removing our old walkways, walls, lawn etc, and installing pavers for our patio and walkways, and building a 60-​foot bocce court. Chris was very fast to respond to my request for a bid; the price was fair; he and his crew were always on time and hardworking with never a moment wasted. The outcome was fantastic. We love our backyard. Hire him.

We did most of the work in our backyard ourselves but needed help to finish up the sprinkler system, mow strip, and installing a weed barrier and 10 yards of rock. Great customer service and actually charged us less than he originally quoted us since we had already purchased most of the materials. What contractor does that?

Chris showed up promptly, tentative listen to long our wish list, with tape measure in hand he proceeds to do whatever great landscaper does. Within few days, the best quote showed up in our email as he promised. Other quotes couldn’t even come close, not when Chris beats them by thousands of hard earn cash. When the beautiful jobs are completed, final cost is exactly the same with original quote. Beside we got to keep our thousands, the quality of the job shown throughout from landscape planning, plumbing reroute, ground prep, retaining wall installation, synthetic grass installation, palm trees planting, to minute details of flag stone paving… we absolutely love the results.

Chris & his team are AMAZING. Literally, some of the most reliable & hard-​working people I’ve ever hired to do anything. I needed to have a jungle-​y yard cleared before listing my late uncle’s house for sale. I live 500 miles away & had a quick turn-​around. Chris and his AWESOME team (who are not only talented, but are very polite & friendly as well) fit my job into their schedule & really surpassed my expectations. Also, they helped me meet my budget by really listening to what I needed. End note: house sold in 24 hours with 6 offers, partially due to Chris’s excellent work. :) THANKS!!!

I can say without any uncertainty that Chris is one of the best contractors we have ever worked with. To make a long story short, we chose Chris after being let down by another contractor and he came through and exceeded all of our expectations. We found him on Unilocal and saw his reviews and I can tell you from experience that his reviews are very reflective of the quality of his work. Chris and his crew were at our house every day at 7 AM on the dot and worked hard all day long. 3 days after beginning the project, our back yard is beyond anything we could expect. Chris knows his trade very well and did not attempt to gouge us for price. He was creative, professional, and I will without question use him again for any landscaping projects around our house.

Incredibly easy to work and communicate with, great design ideas (we had no idea what we wanted, but we DID have a budget), excellent staff who actually performed the work, and superb follow-​through (and follow up!). I can’t recommend Chris enough. He made our entire front yard remodel an absolute breeze.

This is for his customer service. He didn’t do any work for us but he called me back on a Monday after I left a message in the evening on a Friday. He was upfront and told me he wouldn’t be able to assist me for a few months and gave me the number of someone else that could help — Tim. Tim was also awesome — got back to me right away, came out a few days later, and also was honest and upfront explaining that it wasn’t worth him to do the work and told us what we could do to correct our issue ourselves.
So Kudos to Chris for being upfront, respondant, and for referring me to someone else who was also upfront and respondant. Wish all contractors were this way!

I’ve got to thank the other reviewers. We needed some landscape work done (trees removed, some groundcover planted, etc.), and had no clue who to go to. But Unilocalers to the rescue! Chris is great. Very enthusiastic, always seemed to have ideas and suggestions. His crew did an amazing amount of work in a very short time, did it very well, and at a reasonable price. Really can’t ask for more.

I can’t rate him high enough. everything people said is true. crew on time every morning, hard working. excellent communication from Chris and very flexible to change even in the middle of project. We had a lot of changes during the project and Chris was open to our ideas as well as presenting things that we hadn’t thought of.
You can’t miss with him!

I called Chris on Monday of this week to get an estimate on a landscaping job. The very next day he came to our address as promised, took a look at the site, and gave me a preliminary quote right on the spot. Chris is professional, and it’s easy to talk to him. He walked my husband and me through a few options for the job. We had a number of questions, and Chris was able to answer all of our questions in ways that made sense and provide the information we needed. Chris is straightforward and he’s a pleasure to deal with.

After talking to a few other landscapers, I went with Chris McKoy to construct/​install my new large planter box because his price was fair (and a little lower than the others), his idea for my project was better thought out than others and when I met him for the estimate he was much friendlier and a much better communicator — he actually listened to what I wanted.
They started right at 7:00 a.m. like he said they would. While I was away at work, there was an issue of them needing an electrical outlet to recharge their power tools. Minor issue, whose solution was tactless (plugging into a neighbor’s house) and I was definitely irritated by it. However, when I returned home and saw what an absolutely top-​notch job they had done, I was ready to sing their praises again.
Chris McKoy does truly fantastic work. He’s very responsible (took ownership of the error), very free with communication (kept me up-​to-​date with things via text message), created a beautiful just-​as-​I-​had-​imagined-​it-​to-​look planter box, kept everything looking great — redistributed the wood chips, watered everything once he was done (even coiled the hose when we usually leave it messily in a heap) and made my house look so much nicer. It hasn’t even been 24 hours since they finished and I’ve already heard so many great compliments from neighbors.
Good work, Chris!

We used Chris to install sod in our small backyard and I have to say that I am verrrry happy with his service, price and the job that he and his team did. He added a small planting area, dug out a few pesky plants and planted a tree for us as well. It took 4 days from estimate to job completion and I couldn’t be happier. On top of it all, he is very personable and professional. I won’t hesitate to use him again.
