Havana, FL Landscaping

**Edit** only the before pictures posted with my review. I had to add the after photos under the main photos page for Talquin. We had a pool constructed this year which left our entire backyard devastated. The drainage situation was a mess, the grading was all wrong. The excavated clay was spread over the yard and sat for months while we waited for the pool to be finished and then while we tried to find a landscaper. Company after company came out and either gave us outrageous estimates or never even got back to us. I found Talquin on Home Advisor and Seth reached out to me within 24 hrs to schedule a consultation which I believe we had either that day or the next. He gave us an estimate that not only stayed within our budget but included a retaining wall which we desperately needed but never thought we could afford. After the drama we had with our pool contractor (a story for another day) Seth and his crew were a real pleasure to work with. They were responsive and reliable, as well as friendly and courteous, and they did a beautiful job on the retaining wall, the re-grading, the mulch and the sod. Seth was patient as we made minor design modifications and continuously checked in to make sure we were satisfied. Held back a half a star on Home Advisor for quality only because some of the pine straw mulch beds around the perimeter were a little thin and the grass that was under was not completely scraped away, so we have grass growing up into the mulch beds. Otherwise, we are over the moon in love with our yard. The retaining wall is beautiful and the sod is healthy and growing well.

I enjoyed working with Seth and all of his crew. They did a quality, professional job. I am pleased with the result.

Had issues with rain water not draining from my backyard. I tried multiple other companies who didn’t have any idea on how to solve my drainage problem. Upon calling talquin, I was met with friendliness and a genuine interest in helping me. They showed up promptly and were able to come up with a solution and helped with a few other issues caused by previous landscapers. They also build a beautiful stone patio and fire pit that I’m in love with!! I very much appreciate Talquin Landscaping for my beautiful backyard and would recommend to anyone!
