Lawns may have originated as grassed enclosures within early medieval settlements used for communal grazing of livestock, as distinct from fields reserved for agriculture. The word "laune" is first attested in 1540, and is likely related to the Celtic Brythonic word lan/llan/laun, which has the meaning of enclosure, often in relation to a place of worship.

Lawns became popular with the aristocracy in northern Europe from the Middle Ages onward. The early lawns were not always distinguishable from pasture fields. It is speculated the association between the word 'pasture' and biblical mentions made lawns a cultural affinity for some.

Shrubs

Report

A shrub is one of the most popular types of plants used in landscaping. A shrub can be told apart from a tree because of its many short stems and typically a shorter height than a standard tree.

Retaining Walls

Report

Walls can have a bad reputation. The Berlin Wall, the Great Wall of China, even Robert Frost wrote a poem condemning walls. But these are all walls of a different kind. A retaining wall is not meant to keep others out, but rather to hold ground up.

Landscape lighting

Report

A nice looking lawn is an investment. Hard earned dollars are spent keeping landscaping looking good, so why should it only be able to be seen during the day? Landscape lighting is a perfect remedy to this.

Patios

Report

A patio can be a great addition to nearly any yard, but the term patio is used in such a wide variety of ways it can be tough to give an exact definition for the word. So what is a patio exactly? The word patio itself comes from Spanish, and a patio itself can take on many forms, especially depending on the culture and place on the globe.

My account has been hacked twice already in 6 months where someone else is getting my payments! And they are practically impossible to reach.

Bad billing practices. We have been charged twice for the same product and they haven't cancelled one even though they said they will. It's been over 30 days.

The support quality of Wix has drastically changed in the last 18 months. It used to be that we had direct access to highly skilled, and highly capable technicians whenever we called. Now, tickets require escalation up to 3 times before we reach anyone who can help on a practical level. Wix has surprisingly restored our website at some point in the past, without any notice, and reverted countless hours of changes.

When we ask Wix that they troubleshoot issues in a copy of our site and NOT work in production they disregard this request and proceed to work in the live site anyway. Where Wix once dominated great service, this is now at risk. Our businesses count on Wix and the way they handle service is increasingly worrisome.

DO NOT USE THEIR SERVICES! Customer service deleted TWO of my requests for refunds on a plan I cancelled and requested refund WITHIN THEIR REFUND WINDOW. I have tried to patiently work with them for 2 months and still did not receive the refund of $132 for the Premium Plan I cancelled. Also, they somehow charged their services to my expired and replaced credit card which showed up on my new credit card. 100% should not even have to be dealing with this. -10/10. Will never use their services again.

It's a normal website with easy design capabilities. The problem is is if you have the problem, your websites going to be down for at least a week because they have no customer support. If you call their 800 number it just hangs up on you. You're probably send about 20 emails before you finally get a resolution.

We were thrilled with how CUT ABOVE THE REST transformed our lawn on our lakefront property! And they did it quickly, professionally, inexpensively, and exactly as we had asked! More than this, they went the extra mile and did a few extra things - without cost. They are a wonderful team who aim to please, and know what they are doing. We can't wait to use them again!

Wix: maybe okay if you only need a website sometimes, avoid if having a website at any particular time (or days) is important. If/when problems arise, generally unavailable for any support beyond being unhelpfully redirected to the (persistently unavailable) billing department by their social media presence. AVOID! #debatingakfuture

Still waiting on this contractor to make right on his work. It appears he can't be trusted.

I couldn't be more pleased to tell the truth. We needed lawn maintenance in a hurry. They quickly gave us an estimate which was quite fair. But the crew was in our neighborhood that very day. They said they would make every effort to get them here immediately.
