Couldn't recommend a pool/landscape company more highly than Steve Montgomery and Company. The crews are simply outstanding and the quality of work and speed with which they get the project done is second to none!

Excellent service. Steve landscaped our entire front and back yard and one side. He worked within our budget by getting smaller plants and suggesting on things that could wait to be completed at a later time. I have referred him numerous times for people wanting a total landscape redo.

Steve responded very quickly to our request to visit our home and make a proposal on redoing our entire backyard (landscaping, replacing the pool decking and copying, adding a drain, bullding a boulder wall, adding new sod) etc. We had a challenge with the pool decking due to our age of the pool but they were able to come up with a reasonable solution to make it look even better than we imagined. Sometimes you don't know the end of a project when you start but they worked with us along the way to make it a place we LOVE! They are a one stop shop for everything we needed instead of going to 5 different companies. Most of all, they are very honest and Trustworthy.

DO NOT do business with this company. I spent weeks trying to get the owner Steve Montgomery to give me a quote for an outdoor kitchen, landscaping and lighting and all I kept getting from him was "you know we're not the lowest price". He told me this over 7 times while walking my property and when he committed to give me numbers he then tells me "I don't think we're the best fit for you because it seems you want a deal." Now I happen to live in a $1.6M home in one of the most exclusive gated communities in Sandy Springs AND happen to be African American. When I let him know that he was insulting me but continuing to reference the cost without ever giving me the full quote AND then proceeded up on me hang up telling me he doesn't need my business. The worst experience ever by a contractor...well they missed out on a $55k project!

Steve Montgomery and his crew took down our old concrete block retaining wall and put up a beautiful new boulder wall. The boulder wall was Steve’s suggestion. It looks a hundred times better, and turned out to be less expensive. The crew was awesome. Punctual, hard-working, thoughtful, polite, knowledgeable, creative, and easy to work with. Each person showed a desire to make the customer happy. We have a number of plants growing within inches of the wall, but because Steve’s crew was so very careful not one plant was damaged. They showed real artistry building the wall. It is now a delight to look at. Kelly especially is made us feel confident throughout the entire process. She has a unique ability to work with the customers and the crew showing respect to all. She made the whole process easy and the outcome successful. Kelly knows her stuff. From making sure everything was delivered in a timely fashion (ready to go when the work crew showed up) to how long the plywood (used to store building material) could be kept down before it started to kill the grass, to addressing drainage problems, to helping us take photographs for the permit officer. If she didn’t know an answer to a question she would find out. Again great job by all.

Steve’s crew removed a failing concrete block retaining wall and replaced it with a visually more appealing boulder wall. The results were dramatic. What I particularly valued was how little impact there was upon the existing landscape material and lawn.

Steve Montgomery and Company did an outstanding job of designing and installing our custom pool. We had a confined space to work with, and the design perfectly fits our needs.(spa jets and swim jet) Steve and his employees are pleasant and easy to work with. They always responded in a timely manner with returning calls about questions or concerns and coming out to fix “bugs” that naturally happen with a project.

When our house was remodeled and upgraded a few years back, the back yard was left untouched and as a result had turned into a rain forest with a nearly impassible creek splitting the property in half. So last year, we decided to upgrade it with a major project to put in a patio and fix the access to the back part of the lot. We talked to quite a number of people and got several quotes, but in the end, we chose Steve and his company because he instantly felt knowledgeable and sincere and had the background and reviews to stand behind his/their workmanship. We started with bringing in a herd of 38 goats to clear the underbrush, which was cool and only took a few days (we highly recommend goats!). Then we had to remove some trees and some larger brush. In the meantime, Steve had come back with a set of plans that were exactly what we wanted - a natural and appropriate stone patio that would go well with our forested yard. And it included a path across the creek! Once the project started, it was a huge amount of effort for them, and watching the guys haul in giant boulders and hand carve each one to shape was pretty fascinating. The crew carefully placed each stone and used a variety of materials to buld a large patio, a dry creek bed in an area on the side that always flooded, great lighting, a deck expansion, improved drainage and a natural looking staircase down to the creek and up the opposite side. While it took a long time (due to the amount of work, coupled with being the second rainiest year in Atlanta), the end results were well worth it. Our patio is now usable and perfect for bringing friends over. We can go over to the other side of the lot with ease and often go over there just to enjoy the serenity of a little bit of woods in an otherwise highly populated suburban neighborhood. The pictures were taken prior to any plantings, which we will do this spring. We can highly recommend Steve Montgomery for any of your outdoor work.

Hired Steve Montgomery and Company to fix drainage and basically rework the back yard. Included regrading the yard, building a 100 ft retaining wall, and steps on the side of the house. The price was reasonable and was delivered on time and budget. I would recommend them to anyone who needs landscape work.

Steve and his team were outstanding through our landscaping project for both the front and back yards. He helped us create a real yard that we can be so proud to show and take care of now. They were helpful in making changes throughout the project, as needed. The project was completed on time - even after several rain delays. We look forward to working with Steve and his team in the future!

I looked at a variety of contractors before meeting Steve. Steve was the only one who showed genuine caring in how the final product would look. He brought creative solutions and took ownership on ensuring that the final outcome met my expectations.
