They did an excellent job installing a new driveway and drainage in our backyard. I get so many compliments on the driveway. Went above and beyond answering all my questions and making sure it looked exactly how I wanted.

Highly recommend Yaardvark! Nick was able to juggle his schedule around to help us take care of our grading issues super fast! We had a time crunch to complete the work, and Nick was able to deliver.

I was in a tight spot trying to sell my house from another state and had some flooding happen just before showing with all the rain this year. Nick responded promptly and was out to look at the problem immediately. He knew we were under tight timelines and a tight budget. I appreciated how he quickly turned around a few different options at various price points with a recommendation and understanding our situation. He then followed up on time, completed the job exactly as described for the price agreed upon and it has worked flawlessly. We ended up neeing the entire sde yard graded and some drains put in to pull the water away from the house. Its tough to find good contractors that will show up on time and do a good job. Can't recommend the guys at Yaardvark enough for any hardscaping you might have in the nashville area.

So glad I called this company out to help me with my situation that me and my family was going through when we installed patio cover and deck under a patio. What was happening was downspouts that was added to my patio cover was flowing water on the ground which was falling flowing back onto my patio and deck also running under the house, I mean you had to have rubber boots to get up to the deck it was that deep , just a mess! So what I decided was to do something and be proactive, well I'll dig a little Trench put some pipe in there and fill it up with rocks and push the water out away from the patio, I was very proud of this job that I done it was a pretty long trench to do with just a shovel and it took all day Saturday and Sunday and throughout the week, in between working coming in working on it a little bit and so on till I got it completed. Later on through the week rain was in the forecast and I couldn't wait to see it work. So when the rain came, it completely and utterly failed I was crushed! All of that work down the drain ,money spent, going back and forth to Home Depot, looking at videos on YouTube trying to figure it out and I just didn't get it right, so I did a little research and found a company that had great reviews I had to check them out. Shortly after reaching out through Angie's List this company called I describe my situation and the Dilemma that me and my family was facing when trying to enjoy our new patio cover and deck. Mr Nick knew exactly what I was talking about and how I was explaining it he knew exactly what the problem was. 48 hours later he had time to stop by and check it out in person, it just so happened I had a negative grade in the back of my home, and my little trench wasn't going to work and correct the problem, with that I asked what he take the job and help fix what I messed up and make it right, we talked about numbers cost that is and we agreed to a price, and he got started him and his team. They were awesome everyone was respectful and strictly business and they knew exactly what they were doing, I had no idea was so technical, to get the right pitch with the pipe using the correct pipe the correct fittings slope in the yard a little bit to make it work, I did none of this when I dug my little trench I had no idea. They had all the tech, and right equipment to do the job such a small footprint, you would have thought they needed a bulldozer, but the company had the coolest equipment to get the job done. Everyday after they got through working they cleaned up blowed off everything picked up trash and got out of there and came back the next day and it was like that for a couple of days and then it was completed everything looks fantastic! Now I can't wait for it to rain! LOL thank you Yaardvark Landscape Management company!!

Nick and his team did an excellent job for us. We needed someone to come in who could troubleshoot our aging non-standard sprinkler system, make repairs, and substantially add zones. Nick was smart and careful with the project, guiding his team, problem-solving, and communicating with us each step of the way. Id hire him again in a heartbeat and recommend his company without reservation.
