  This is our second project with Five Star Landscaping. We do have very positive experience on both projects. The first project involved planting trees, making flowerbeds and doing the landscape lighting. Five Star done outstanding job. Their schedule management was very good and the prices are very reasonable. The second project was much more extended, as it involved fixing drainage problems on our backyard (french drain, spouts rerouting etc etc), paving patio, installing a firepit and fixing the yard after the pool was installed (paving, resodding, planting trees, installing irrigation). Five Star did outstanding job in fixing our backyard drainage problems at the very reasonable price point. They have installed a very nice patio and firepit, as well, as paved walkway around the pool. They have also planted a very nice set of trees (during our both projects). Five Star has demonstrated professionalism and outstanding work quality, as well, as good project management skills. Special thanks go to Todd and Remi for doing outstanding jobs and being very easy to work with. Will highly recommend Five Star to everyone who needs one-stop-solution for all its landscaping needs (irrigation, drainage, trees, sodding, patio/walkway paving, grading, lightning). We will definitely use their services again.

  Todd and his crew did an excellent job from the initial phone call to making my lawn and landscaping ideas a reality! They did the work in a timely manner and always answered all my questions. I highly recommend them! Call, you'll be glad you did!!

  Tod came out the day after I requested a quote. I discussed with him what I would like to have done. He also made some nice suggestions and together, we came up with a plan. He made a lot of notes and took pictures of the site. I accepted his reasonably priced estimate and work began the following week. Three guys came that morning on time, with everything they needed, including pages of pictures that Tod had taken. The landscapers and I went over the plan once again to make sure we were all on the same page. They then began work right away. They were polite, energetic, and very hard working. I liked that they included me in the process by making sure the positioning of the trees, flowers and shrubs were to my liking before their permanent placement. Everything was done to my complete satisfaction and I plan on asking them back again this fall. I especially want to thank Tod and Nicole for their kind and professional handling of my project and highly recommend their work. Well done, The Berry’s in AL

  Five Star did a fantastic job on adding some erosion control hardscaping and landscaping to our front yard and adding a retaining wall to the back yard. Our experience was exceptional from intake/consult to completion and their pricing structure was very reasonable. We would work with them again anytime and recommend them to our friends and family.

  BEWARE- I hired Five Star Lawn & Landscaping on November 4, 2022 to complete multiple projects around my new fiber glass pool. Their new PM told me they were more expensive than the competition but the best contractor in North Alabama for concrete, landscaping, and pool coping. I strongly believe that you get what you pay for, so I felt good about my decision to hire them. That decision was a huge mistake. They told me they would complete my project in about 2 1/2 weeks and it would be complete before Christmas, but it might take longer because of the weather. I completely understood that it could be delayed by a few weeks and I was willing to wait. They started work in early December and made numerous mistakes with the travertine pool coping install and even damaged my pool in the process. They made numerous mistakes with their concrete work (December to May) which ultimately required two pours to be removed and there is still concrete that needs to be repaired with a concrete overlay. They made numerous mistakes with soil grading, sod installation, and french drain installation. After many attempts to correct and with no success, they stopped construction in January and put my project on hold whether I liked it or not. They returned to my project in April and the nightmare continued. It was apparent they were in way over their head and the PM and the owner didn't seem concerned about the disaster they created in my back yard. As it was obvious that my project wasn't a concern or a priority, I decided it was best that we cut ties but only after they fixed the issues they created and then I would hire another contractor. They said they weren't finishing the job and they abandoned the project. They truly did me a favor by leaving the project because it was one disaster after another. They agreed to return about 30% of the money I paid them to repair and correct their mistakes and incomplete work. I had numerous contractors decline the work because they didn't want someone else's problems. They were shocked on the level of subpar work, and they had no interest in being a part of it. This has been a horrible experience that I don't wish on anyone. I"m attaching pictures of their initial work, and pictures of their attempts to correct their work. I tried to add more pictures. but no luck.
