Through word of mouth, referrals and repeat business; Elite Landscape Services has grown since 2001 into a full-service Landscape Design & Installation and Management firm capable of handling large residential and commercial landscape projects. We have been fortunate to be a part of many exciting and creative landscape projects – some of which have been aired on HGTV’s Ground Breaker program. Let us show you how to make your landscape Elite!
If there were more than 5 stars, I would give Doug and his team more stars. Doug and his entire team were exemplary in every phase of the project, including 1) requesting for visit to scope the work for an estimate, 2) guidance and suggestions during the quote process to ensure we got the results for which we were hoping 3) delivering the a VERY REASONBALE estimate, 4) scheduling us in his queue of projects, 5) the actual execution of the work and 5) follow up. Their planning and execution was phenomenal. I would absolutely recommend Doug and his team for any size job, small medium or large. We will have them do all future landscaping for us and will have them do seasonal refreshes. During the scoping phase Doug respectively offered suggestions based on his vast experience (all which we took by the way). The questions Doug asked and suggestions he made immediately demonstrated the depth and breadth of his knowledge and impressed/convinced me from the outset they were the best choice. AND the quote was very well written with EVERY detail identified so there were no surprises, which certainly engendered confidence. We discussed all the options and Doug was always mindful of our budget and NOT just trying to increase scope and cost like so many companies. I know they do much larger jobs than ours but is obvious they treat all size jobs equally. With the same identically high standards, the same commitment to delivering high quality work, with the same attention to detail and an absolute dedication to maximizing customer satisfaction. Their communication with us, before, during and after gave us a great sense of security and comfort that they were truly interested in delivering the outcome we all desired. They treated our yard like their own, cleaning up every day and clearly taking pride in their work. A differentiator I noticed was his team has been together for a long time so they are all invested in delivering a great job. The finished product was well beyond our expectations and Doug's personal follow-up is unique in today's impersonal world. Net net, Doug and his Elite Landscaping will provide you the highest quality service that will exceed your expectations. It will be at a very competitive price and will make your property truly one in which you can be very proud. And they are fun to work with. Elite Landscaping is a bases loaded home run for sure.

Matt and the team at Elite Landscaping exceeded my expectations. They are great to work with, and the work product is exceptional. I love my courtyard oasis!!! They extended the covered patio, laid the interlocking stone, planted all plants, installed drip irrigation, and laid artificial turf.
Services: Bermuda Sod Installation w/Irrigation, Pea Gravel Patio Installation We contacted Elite Landscape to get quotes for several projects around our home. The exterior of our home has been in need of a makeover since we moved in two years ago. We had several trees removed, including four massive sweet gums in the front yard. We had to have the roots ground once, excavated, then ground again. Our front yard subsequently became a weed infested MESS. Doug came out, walked us through each of the projects by listening to our wants and needs and making recommendations and offering solutions in each area. We decided to have his team install bermuda sod with an irrigation system (timer) in the front. The difference can't be overstated! They have been out several times to check on the progress and ensure the sod is 'taking' properly. What's more, we have a problem with army worms in our neighborhood, and he did the first treatment for those as part of our install. They did a pea gravel patio on the back half of our house. Excavated a layer of weeds/rocks out, leveled, and replaced. They also rain our gutters through drains to the back of our property. We're very happy with the results and plan to explore additional projects with Elite.
I wish it had improved. Our neighbors use them and we wanted to stay with the same service provider as our lawns connect. They are the highest priced lawn care we've had with the least amount of actual service. Our bushes and trees have not been trimmed back (through the winter months, they didn't touch them--even after directly speaking to the maintenance crew, and the supervisor, nothing happened (three times). I walked the property with 3 different supervisors for everything discussed to have no follow through. The bushes we asked to square, they rounded. They didn't send us bills for months and then we would receive threatening emails about how they are a family run business and we need to remit payment. This literally happened twice and the bills were over $ 1,200. They had a glitch in their system, but we were the ones putting out the fire. After over a year of having service from them, we have now received consistent bills 2 months in a row. I just cannot recommend them. The service stinks, the communication from folks in the office to guys in the field is just terrible, and it isn't worth the high cost they charge.
Elite Landscaping did a fantastic job on the front of our house. It turned out great. I would highly reccommend their work.
Hands down, I choose the best company, ELITE Landscape Services, to create our all new screened porch with a beautiful tall gable roof coming off our family room. From every angle: first site visit by Doug Presley of Elite to the final smallest detail, the entire project was a joy! Elite's Landscape Services construction utilizes their specialist teams who were competent and efficient in their specific area of construction. Final touches were completed with Elite's landscape team tending to surrounding area with trenching, drain, and walkway improvements. Each employee came to work every day, on time, and worked almost non stop all day. Premise was tidied up end of each day. Pricing is very fair (had other bids) , great value, and always reassuring that they will take care of everything and indeed, they do! My experience with Elite Landscape Services validated that they care about their customer, their work, the work premises, and deliver with pride in their work. Like magic, our porch quickly became our favorite place for gathering, solitude, and napping! BRAVO to ELITE Landscape Services!
Elite built a huge sunroom and deck for us. Their work is the highest quality hands down. The craftsmanship and attention to detail is amazing. Elite has done other landscaping jobs for us in the past as well and they will continue to be one of our "go to" vendors.
I have worked with Doug and his team on commercial projects and decided they would be a great company to work with on my personal landscape renovation. We discussed the scope and possible cost saving options during our initial visit and Doug asked great questions to ensure his proposal would fit within our budget while incorporating all our landscaping needs. The crews arrived on schedule and worked continuously until the job was complete. After only 3 days, I now have a beautiful new yard and irrigation system. I can’t say enough about Doug and his crews; they show up when they tell you they will and work diligently to provide the best quality product. Doug goes above and beyond to make sure his customers are satisfied and I would recommend Elite to anyone looking for a trustworthy landscape contractor that keeps your best interests in mind.
Awesome company with great people
Elite was a pleasure to work with from start to finish for our big backyard project. Communication was easy, they showed up on time and consistently, all subcontractors were professional, and we love the final product. Would do business with them again.
Earlier this year in March, Dan came out to assess some areas in my zeon zoysia lawn that needed repair. It was a bit too early in the year to work with that particular grass. He said that a June time frame would be about right. Tom and Grant showed up today to perform the work. They did an excellent job! Even adjusted my sprinkler pattern!! Very friendly and hard-working men. Just guys that you could relate to and greatly appreciate. Thanks to everyone at Elite for the excellent service and staff!
Elite Landscaping recently completed repairs on existing stone walls, created new stone buttresses and cleaned and repaired a concrete pond and waterfall for us. They were responsive, professional, on time and on budget. The were courteous and thoughtful of every detail. The workmanship was skilled and of the highest quality. I would give them 10 stars out of 5!
An incredibly professional, innovative, and high quality company! Doug along with Greg and the rest of the team are honest, kind, and amazing people with whom to work. They came up with creative and aesthetically pleasing solutions that I didnt even realize would be an issue. My dog damaged part of the project before everything was even finished. They repaired it at no extra charge to me, even though it was my dogs fault. I could write an essay on the professionalism, kindness, honesty, and high quality of this company. I will reach out to Elite Landscaping for all my future projects! I would highly recommend this company to anyone who wants their job done correctly with a company that has integrity!
What a pleasure doing business with this company! So professional and so pleased with our yard! We will definitely use Elite Landscaping again . Thank you Jack Corbin your crew! The Blalock Positive Responsiveness, Punctuality, Quality, Professionalism, Value
Awesome to work with Doug..so professional, kind & helpful with assisting on what to plant in our backyard. Jack & his crew were so friendly & answered my many questions. It was really a pleasure to have worked with Elite & will continue to use them, as well as, refer them to everyone I can. They really went what I feel was above & beyond as we had an irrigation issue & Doug was here on a Saturday to get this worked out for us! Thank you - James & Melinda Roberts
Doug and his team were beyond fabulous . We had a fireplace and patio built and the result was beyond our expectations . I would recommend Elite Landscaping to anyone
Many years ago, we had a contractor install a couple of wooden retaining walls and a set of stairs in our sloping backyard so we could get started with our raised bed vegetable garden. Fast forward to present, the wood was beginning to warp and wear out. We got quotes from multiple companies but found Elites quote the most reasonable. We worked with Matt who walked us through the process, the various choices of material (we went with stone), etc. Once the project was underway (it was a days work), he kept checking in through the day, making sure that we were informed on everything. After the project was completed, we realized that the arrangement of stones in the retaining walls wasnt as uniform as we liked. I talked to Matt and he brought in the entire team on another day, and they rearranged the stones to our liking. And we werent charged a single extra penny. I was so touched and deeply appreciative of this gesture. Needless to say, we enjoy our garden a lot more these days. The retaining walls and the stone staircase are both beautiful!
Nonresponsive
We had a major renovation of a nature trail in our community that we have been trying to find the right crew for a long time. Working with Doug was one of the best experiences you could ask for, he was extremely professional, honest in every aspect of the business and our conversations, and accountable throughout the entire project. Dougs team did an AMAZING job with our project and our community could not be happier. Not to mention Doug took accountability for things we would have never even noticed to make sure the job was done to absolute perfection and satisfaction. If you have a project big or small, I would work with this team, they will make sure you are well taken care of and beyond satisfied. Could not recommend this team any higher.
We have been working with Elite for over 15 years and they are the most professional and caring company I have ever been associated with. It shows what a well run family business can done over all the other big or small companies. I highly recommend Doug Presley always be considered when you want to do any design and build landscaping
This was my first time using Elite Landscaping and I was impressed with their quality and professionalism. Doug came out and listened to my requests, discussed options and delivered a quote within the time frame he estimated. His crew arrived on the day they were scheduled right on time. They took great care unloading and planting new trees, laying sod and installing a dry river bed with a drain box and line. They had some sod left over from the front yard and took it upon themselves to lay it over the dirt when they filled in the drain line on the side of my home. I was impressed with their hard work, attention to detail and integrity. Ill call them for my future landscape projects.
I have used Elite Landscaping Services since 2011. These guys took an unusable sloping backyard and transformed it into our own private park including a 600 square foot patio with stack stone walls, a fire pit, a bocce court and a 2200 square feet flat, grass area (zoysia). The entire backyard is beautifully landscaped with various plantings including flowering bushes, trees and perennials. I also use their lawn treatment and trees/bushes maintenance program to keep everything looking beautiful. Last week they completed a front yard renovation which involved removing junipers and ground cover on a sloping hill in front of the house and installed a natural stone wall and various plantings. The curb appeal has been enhanced by a factor of 10. I highly recommend these guys for any of your hard scape or soft scape needs. Doug Presley is great to work with. The quality of their work is outstanding.
Matt sat down with us and created a plan fo our backyard that combined our vision and his expertise to deliver a backyard oasis that exceeded our expectations. I can t say enough about the crew at Elite, they are timely, efficient, diligent and they care about your property as evidenced by the meticulous clean up job. Projects around the home are not always fun, but this was one project that we enjoyed both the process and the outcome as our vision came to life! We are so glad we picked Elite!
We had some large landscaping/hardscape services done. They were thorough, punctual, professional and considerate. They took extra steps in aspects of the design and implementation that went above and beyond the scope of what they required to do. Something as small as taking extra time to level the ground for a new location for our kids trampoline goes a long way. I would highly recommend them for any landscape needs from large projects to normal maintenance.
Elite Landscape just completed an amazing installation of landscape, sod and lighting that has elevated the look of my home to the point that neighbors are stopping and complimenting me on how great it looks. Doug and his team are professional, knowledgeable, thorough and friendly. I am extremely thrilled with their work and the outcome of how great my home and yard look thanks to Elite!
Doug and his crew are the best contractors I have ever worked with. (I rarely write reviews, but Elite Landscape Services is worth it.) They installed a large retaining wall, walkway, backyard patio, and a new fire pit with seating. They took an undesirable, unusable back yard space and created an outdoors that draws our family and friends to the outside for years to come. On top of that they filled a sinkhole and poured a new driveway, with plenty of space for vehicles and our boys basketball hoop. The quality was top notch and at a fair price. The schedule was adhered to (summer thunderstorms permitting!), the workers were courteous and accommodating, and we were communicated to regarding next milestones and timeline almost on a daily basis. Doug and team are honest and fair. Follow ups, our change controls, and punch list items were addressed in a very timely manner. Elite Landscape Services was recommended to us by neighbors and we have, in turn, done the same. Look no further....Doug and crew are your last call!
Elite Landscape is an outstanding company to work with! We have contracted with Elite four times to create beautiful landscapes in our yard. We are returning customers because of the professionalism and quality of their work. We have always been pleased with the final product, their team works hard and are prompt and courteous, and their prices are competitive.
I have been a customer of Elite Landscape Services for almost 20 years, for a pond , patio, landscape and sprinkler system installation, and ongoing lawn maintenance. They have always provided me with excellent and professional service, responding quickly to any problems that surface and addressing any new needs.
Elite Landscaping does quality work at a very affordable price. We have had two projects completed by them (retaining wall and deck) and we love both of them. Doug is very professional, courteous and responsive. He is very easy to work with and always makes sure the customer is happy.
We recently had two rather large projects done with Elite Landscape Services...we couldnt be happier with the results. We live in a mountain community where it is very difficult to even get people to show up to give estimates on projects. Doug Presley showed up as scheduled and was so patient with us. He even came back out a second time to discuss our project and walk through the design again before we made our final choices. His crew and the job foreman were great! Very polite and cleaned up at the end of each day. We highly recommend Elite Landscape Services
I got Doug in to quote because of the job I saw his crew do on my neighbor s place. I thought they would be out of my price range because the work was so nicely done. But they weren t so we went with them. Can t say enough about what an awesome job they did. They put in a big flight of stone stairs, ran a dry creek bed to fix the erosion problem I had that was getting worse with every rainstorm, paved under my deck and ran a path around to a 15 fire pit area which they paved and built the pit. They were helpful in getting the right solution to fit my budget offering different materials and options. They were on time, got the job done quickly and the quality was top notch. I totally recommend them. You won t be disappointed.
Elite did a beautiful stone walk down the side of our house & helped put a huge tree rootball back in its hole. Doug Presley and his crew were very responsive and attentive. Professional job for very reasonable cost. Refreshing in this day & age. Would definitely recommend.
Junk employees
I am updating our review to add another project to the list! Elite Landscaping added a deck to the patio they had recently installed. The price blew the competition out of the water and craftsmanship was top-notch. They added a difficult curve to the deck to match the curve of the patio - it looks phenomenal. Shortly after completing the deck, we noticed that two of our neighbors who saw the work quickly booked work with landscaping to update the replace their own decks! Doug and Elite Landscaping recently replaced an old, uneven brick patio with a new paver patio. They worked with us through several design iterations to get us to a plan that met our needs and stayed within our budget. The work was completed quickly and professionally, and the crew left our yard looking beautiful. This is the second job we ve contracted with Elite Landscaping, and we will continue to use them for projects in the future.
Cant say enough about the service and the convenience of this company. Every appointment was on time, price was awesome, everyone was courteous, and scheduling was never an issue. The quality and efficiency of work was also top notch. Our retaining wall project was a big job and the crew was extremely friendly, careful and quick...and the cleaned up as they went. Would not hesitate to use again or recommend to anyone!
This company is far from elite. In a nutshell I had this company several months ago. I had $80,000 worth of professional landscaping that I needed this company to maintain. After several months they ruined it all and most of my landscaping is now gone. The original problems are still there and when asked to address those issues their employee Jared was very combative and argumentative with me. After months of text documentation of just how unhappy I was, I decided to cancel. They actually have the audacity to continue to bill me for their crappy service. I had showed them my blueprints so they would be knowledgeable of my shrubbery and still managed to ruin it all. How can a company continue to charge a customer in a situation like this? Kristy then told me if I do not pay she will send my account to collections. So do yourself a favor stay away from this company and find yourself a real landscaping business.
Do a great job
As a resident in a neighborhood contracted with Elite, I know that our HOA president as well as the board have personally met with the owner to discuss the grievances shared by many within the neighborhood. I personally left a call for Doug last Tuesday, of which I still have not received a reply. When I arrived home today, luckily the crew was still servicing some of the yards, so that I could confront them and ask why my yard was being ignored for the second week in a row. The crew lead did come over to mow the yard, but only want to provide excuses that were of no relevance as to why it had not been done. The workmanship is in a category of laziness and the workload appears to be more than they are capable of handling. Perhaps in a one-on-one situation they perform better, but certainly not in mass quantity. Nonetheless, the majority of my neighborhood are more than displeased with the service, well, we should say the lack of service.
Very professional staff and great company to do business with. The pricing of the project was very reasonable and competitive. The quality of the work is outstanding. The staff is very friendly. Greg (the project manager) was a great communicator between me and the crew that did the work to make my dream happen in my backyard. I will recommend Elite landscaping services to every friend and family I know if they ever wanted to have project done in their backyard.
I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Elite Landscaping. We recently finished up a large backyard project and the process was practically seamless from start to finish. First and foremost, Elite Landscaping comes to you with a ton of experience - they know their stuff. During the planning phase Doug brought a ton of great ideas and dedicated a lot of time talking through our options while being respectful of our budget and needs. After that, the team kept us informed throughout the whole process which helped our comfort-level considerably during this large project. I also have to commend the awesome crew who was working on our project day-to-day. They treated our yard very respectfully, cleaning up the job site daily and clearly taking pride in their work. The end result was amazing! Elite Landscaping does very high-quality work, at a competitive price, and are a great group to work with to boot. What more could you ask for?
Elite Landscape Services create a new stone front walk for us and it turned out great. An excellent company to work with and I highly recommend them.
There are amazing workers and the best company ever for landscape.
