What recent reviews say

Eclipse wins consistent praise for creative design, quality hardscaping, and attentive project management under Dylan and Shawn's supervision. However, a significant minority faced budget overruns, poor communication when costs ran high, incomplete cleanup, and unresolved warranty claims including unlicensed electrical work.

Recent shift: Recent years show consistently strong five-star reviews with detailed praise for Dylan's communication and oversight, contrasting with older one-star reviews citing warranty failure and unmet expectations. The tone has shifted toward greater project management transparency and site presence.

Praised for
  • design expertise and creative concepts
  • reliable crew and timeliness
  • quality craftsmanship on hardscaping and paving
  • thorough communication and site presence
  • accommodates design changes
Watch-outs
  • underestimating budgets and timelines
  • poor communication after setbacks
  • unlicensed electrical work
  • messy cleanup and debris
  • no follow-up on warranty or remedies
professional-crewon-timeattention-to-detailquality-workmanshipgreat-design-ideasresponsivemessy-cleanupupsold-unnecessary-workpoor-communication
Best for: Homeowners wanting comprehensive landscape design and hardscaping with visible management involvement.
Think twice if: Those with tight budgets or inflexible timelines; past clients experienced scope creep and cost overruns. Verify electrical licensing before contracting.

Strengths

  • long track record with repeat clients over a decade
  • in-person project oversight by management
  • creative design and material coordination
  • handles full-scope projects from design to build

Worth knowing

  • Named staff: Dylan (general manager), Shawn (owner), Adam, Jacob, Chris (subcontractor); praised for on-site presence during projects
  • Completed projects include retaining walls, paver replacement, deck building, trenching, irrigation installation, french drains, hardscape and planting design
  • One client reported unlicensed electrical work that required later repair
  • Repeat client history: one family completed three projects across two homes over a decade
  • Mixed cleanup standards: some praised thorough cleanup and pressure washing; one reported construction debris strewn about

Common questions

Does Eclipse handle the full project from design to finish?
Yes. They design the plan, source materials, manage construction, and handle final touches like pressure washing. Repeat customers confirm this full-scope approach across multiple projects.
What happens if the budget changes mid-project?
One client reported a significant overrun when the estimator underbudgeted. The owner was reluctant about absorbing extra costs, and communication became difficult. It is worth asking for a detailed scope and contingency plan upfront.
Are they available to check on projects during construction?
Yes. Multiple reviews note Dylan and Shawn present at job sites to oversee quality and timeliness. One client praised this personal involvement as unusual for the industry.

YardDoc

4.9(216)✓ Verified

YardDoc earns trust through consistency: staff arrive on time, explain work clearly, and handle complex jobs with precision. Reviewers frequently name technicians like Chris, Christian, Jorge, and Adrian, praising their professionalism and care even during stressful situations like pest infestations or structural repairs. The office team (Ashleigh, Rachel Banker) manages scheduling smoothly and stays responsive. Work spans patio doors, wooden stairs, rodent problems, and routine yard care. Two recent one-star reviews cite communication lapses, a sharp contrast to the 97% five-star majority but worth noting if responsiveness matters to you.

Top Choice Lawn Care

4.8(629)✓ Verified

Top Choice delivers consistent, careful work across mowing, irrigation, and landscape restoration. Most crews show up on schedule and finish with pride. However, the booking and billing process can frustrate: customers report unclear pricing upfront, surprise charges after open-ended work sessions, and unwillingness to negotiate service commitments. Staff like Johnny, Ford, Lisa, and Jeremy are named praise-worthy, but the call center handling sales sometimes talks customers into inflexible contracts despite legitimate concerns. If you want reliable field work and don't mind negotiating payment details upfront, they're worth the call.
