Andrew Wagenhals Chen6 reviewsiTotal number of Google reviews Andrew has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
Travis of TK Landscaping was slow to complete the job as contracted, but when he did, his company did nice work.
He did not lay down the anti-weed fabric barrier as contracted, and left without informing me of that omission, but with my full payment. Sadly, the fabric was the whole point of the job as I have aggressive weed growth in my flower beds. He promised to return and fix it later that week. Unfortunately, I attempted to get TK to return several times over a 2+ month period and each time he decided not to come for one reason or another. TK finally returned and completed the job as contracted and compensated after 2 months of unenjoyable correspondence.
Despite that, in the end, TK did do a nice job with the fabric barrier and the entire yard. TK acknowledges this was not great business and I am confident he can learn from this experience in future dealings.
Response from the owner · 3 weeks ago
Thank you for your honest and detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize for the delays and communication issues throughout the project. We take responsibility for not completing the work as originally contracted and understand the frustration this caused.
We’re glad we were ultimately able to return, complete the fabric barrier properly, and make things right. We appreciate your patience and your acknowledgment of the quality of the finished work. We’ve taken this experience seriously and will use it to improve our communication and follow-through moving forward.

I can’t recommend TKS Landscaping & Lawn Care enough! We hired them to completely redo our front yard, including regrading the yard, installing new sod, and adding fresh mulch around our landscaping beds. The transformation speaks for itself.
Our yard was uneven, overgrown, and in desperate need of attention. The TKS team took the time to properly grade everything, ensuring the yard not only looks great but also drains correctly. The new sod was installed with great attention to detail, and the mulch gave the flower beds a clean, finished look that completely changed the curb appeal of our home.
The crew was professional, hardworking, and respectful throughout the entire project. They showed up when they said they would, communicated well, and left everything clean when the job was finished.
If you’re looking for a landscaping company in Virginia Beach that takes pride in their work and delivers outstanding results, I highly recommend TKS Landscaping & Lawn Care. We couldn’t be happier with how our yard turned out. Thank you for the incredible work!
