Somewhere in the history of the house my wife and I purchased, someone who fancied themselves a…read morelandscaper owned the property. The people we purchased the house from were clearly not landscapers, and neither are we. Needless to say, our backyard was crowded with plants and ornamental trees that we did not want. I couldn't actually get to my backyard's water hookup without climbing through a small jungle and getting scratched & dirty in the process. We began looking for a landscaper to essentially do a lot of tidying up and removal, to transform our yard into something not embarrassing. After a couple of duds (one landscaper who never submitted a promised quote actually argued with us over some of the things we wanted removed because they were "expensive"... who cares, they were still an eyesore), my wife found Highland Landscaping. Bill came out immediately to inspect the yard and we explained what we wanted: 1) Removal of an ornamental tree that was growing sideways into our back deck. 2) Conversion of a covered grove containing rhododendrons and other overgrown crap into a gravel/stone-covered seating area for some Adirondack chairs and a fire pit we already owned. 3) Removal and extensive pruning of other overgrown plants while keeping some of the nice stuff. 4) Fresh mulching in all beds. 5) Weed removal and removal of poison ivy that was growing on our side yard. We told Bill we just wanted everything to look a lot nicer, and we would trust his vision. He gave us his ideas, and promised us it would look "awesome" when he was through with it. He gave us a very reasonable quote and was able to start after a few weeks. His crew worked diligently and was extremely friendly and accommodating. Our backyard looks amazing now. "Awesome" doesn't even begin to cover it. He was able to accomplish everything we wanted for this project. No more overgrowth, no more sideways trees ruining our newly-painted deck, and now we have a beautiful stone-covered outdoor seating area to enjoy with our guests. They even came in under budget on the quote. Most importantly, our yard is not an embarrassment anymore. HIGHLY recommended for all your landscaping needs.

And our situation was complicated by the fact that he had to satisfy both us and our adjoining neighbors. We had a shared drainage issue and the only way it could be eliminated was if they were equally satisfied with the plan and it's execution. And we were. I would unconditionally recommend him.

The bottom line about Storms Land Services is that Connor is a professional, hard worker who…read morecharges a fair price for his excellent service. Connor is by far one of the best contractors I've ever hired. From the consultation all the way through to the completion of the project he was absolutely professional on every front. We have been having water issues in our back and side yards. Our backyard has a pretty decent slope to it and the water would pool between our patio and playground. Connor came out and did a through inspection of the property and advised installing a catch basin in the back yard that would dump out into the street as well as a French drain to handle the soggy side yard. When we informed Connor that we'd be using him he told me he'd rethought some things about the project. Just the idea that he'd put additional thought into our situation before we'd signed a contract made me feel like he really cared about helping us. Throughout the project we kept remarking about how efficient and thorough his work was. Every day he cleaned up after himself and made sure any digging was filled back in. I've never hired someone who has worked as hard as Connor. I cannot say enough how grateful we were for his meticulousness and professionalism. A few days after all the pipes had been laid down we had a decent bout of rain in the morning. Usually this would mean a small pond in our backyard and our side yard would be marshland for days. We had no pooling in the backyard and when I checked the side yard at about 2 pm the ground was almost dry. I was hopeful that it would work but I was astonished at how well it worked. On top of all of the high quality, thoughtful work I think the price Connor charged was absolutely fair. If you have any issues that Connor can solve do not hesitate to hire him!

The company collected their full fee, but when I came home I found that several things were not finished. I contacted the owner who immediately wanted to remedy the situation and I felt reassured it was all going to be fixed. He also told me I needed more stones to finish one piece of the job. He offered to pick them up and haul them to my home when he came back if I sent another $150 for the stone/hauling, which I did. He promptly disappeared on me. I tried contacting him a few different ways over the next two weeks but I have not received any responses. I know his daughter answers his emails as part of the business, and she has not answered either so at this point I have to assume he stole my money and ran. Beware.

Insisting I pay more money just because the materials needed for the promised work was miscalculated is against NJ law as well.
