As of this week, when I had to have my lawn aerated because most of the sod they laid had died, I can say this was the worst sod job I have seen (of 5 that I have done over 40 years). The person who aerated my lawn agreed. Whole pieces of the sod came loose; it never took. Lousy job, lousy sod, and too expensive. And when I told ERL about this they never responded. Buyer beware!

Been using Orange landscaping on and off for 3 years. The company has been used for mowing, spring…read morecleanup and other projects. The quality was average to poor. Later we found out they overcharge for all their work. Mowing ($144.00 weekly for 2 acres: with numerous planting beds and pool. So not a full 2 acres to mow): We have noticed a pattern every season with this company. Delio starts the mowing season with up to a three-man crew. Delio and another person on the mowers and someone else on a line trimmer/blower. First couple of jobs, okay, especially at the front of the property, while The backyard always seems to be average to poor. As the season progresses the crew gets cut back to two. Then no one but Delio shows up. At two men, the weed wacking starts to suffer and they barely clean hard areas off with the blower. When it gets towards the end of the summer it's only Delio working. At this point the job really takes a nosedive. Delio does an okay job mowing, but uses the line trimmer very sparingly. Lots of areas with missed spots or not hit at all. Especially places he thinks you will not check. Spring Cleanup ($3790): First issue, the price. after receiving this service from Orange for two springs and not being completely thrilled with the work, we contacted other companies to compare prices. Apparently, Orange was charging us nearly a thousand dollars more than most companies we reached out to (We have written estimates and e-mails to back this up). We presented a estimate provided by Patriot landscaping for $2800 for spring cleanup to Delio last season and asked if he could reduce his rate. He only agreed to deduct approximately $400. What we received for that reduction was decent pruning but skimping on mulch, terrible weed cleanup and poor overall planting bed cleaning. Since I thought he was a decent person and we worked with him a few times I decided to give this company one last try, it was a mistake. I contacted Orange this spring for the spring cleanup. It is supposed to include bed cleaning, de-weeding, pruning, edging, mulch and pre-emergent. We paid full price. What we got was: sloppy pruning. Terrible weed removal. What they call weed removal is to weed whack what they think you will see,(not pull the weeds) and cover it with mulch. The result of this sloppy and lazy practice, combined with the fact that they did not even put down the pre-emergent we paid for is weeds popping up all over. Now we will have to do the work Orange was paid for but did not do. Also, because I was sick for a week and needed to finish some yard work before Orange was scheduled to arrive. I called and asked if he could come by the following week. The owner only agreed to give me 3 days past the original scheduled day. Delio, not I scheduled the work for 5/12 & 5/13. On the second day, 5/13, Delio shows up, and Delio not I decided to reschedule and not have his crew work because it rained a bit overnight and the ground was damp. It did not rain at all during that day on 5/13 until late that evening. When I called about not showing up. He said it was too wet. I looked at the next day forecast (5/14) and there was a good to very good chance of rain throughout the day. During the phone call I expressed my concern to Delio about installing black dyed mulch in the rain and the damage it can do to surfaces (walkway, siding, white PVC railing). His reply was not to worry his guys will be careful and it will be fine. Sure enough, it was NOT FINE! His crew stained our walkway. Our hardi-plank painted light yellow siding. Our white pvc railing and our new white chaise lounge chairs. My wife and I, 3 weeks later, are still trying to remove stains. Moving on. That morning when his crew arrived and immediately began mulching in the rain. I took a walk around the back of the property. What I found was piles of debris they left and they did not clean up. There was also twigs leaves and all kinds of messes all around the rear of the house. I called and I asked Delio if his guys were done cleaning and he said YES. I told him, then we have an issue. He showed up to the site and saw the mess and talked to one of his crew. They had to stop mulching and clean the mess. I think they would have been okay trying to hide it if I didn't notice. At the end of the current job Delio blamed his crews' shortcomings on me. Said my complaining made them nervous and my rescheduling caused them to work in the rain. Even though it was Delio not me that decided to NOT WORK on 5/13 (no rain) and reschedule to 5/14 (rain all day). I shared my displeasure with Delio about the whole job and his solution when you are not happy is to tell you the issues are your fault and to quit. He left us with 2 to 2 1/2-foot-high grass that I had to push mow for over 7 hours. Because most mowing companies are at capacity, we had to hustle to find another company last minute. DO NOT USE ORANGE!!

We met with Jesus, the owner, twice, before work even started and he came by daily to check on the progress of our project. We also met with Elizabeth, a co-owner, as work was progressing. Both Jesus and Elizabeth had wonderful ideas for us to consider. Their company built a brick stairway leading from the side of our driveway and up into the planting area at the front of our house. It is exactly what we had in mind, and looks amazing. We also needed some bricks replace/repaired, and their workmanship was excellent. Lastly, they brought in soil and mulch, and planted a number of plants. All work was completed in a timely manner, and their workers were always on-time, and clearly had pride in their work. We truly enjoy our new front and side area, and will use Brothers & Sons for any future projects.

Called Nelson and he said that they had ran out of the barrier cloth while doing the job and he went to the store to get more and his helper must have finished without putting the rest of the barrier on. No problem! (I had already paid him) He agreed to come and put more barrier down. He texted me and said he had came by and still no barrier on one whole end of the bed. I texted him and he said that that was all he was going to do. He was done. VERY UNHAPPY CUSTOMER. I am now moving the mulch and putting the barrier down myself.

I was tired of spending so many…read morehours on my days off cutting grass, weed whacking, edging, pulling weeds, and then cleaning up. One main thing that brought Eco-Friendly to our attention was that we wanted a company that could remove the weeds growing out of the cracks without using harmful chemicals (especially since we have dogs). Eco-Friendly uses fire to kill and remove the weeds. When we purchased some service through Amazon Services we had not realized what the cost of having our grass cut was going to cost. When the company got there they told as that we had spent a lot more money than what it would cost for them to cut our lawn. They had some nice black mulch on their truck and used the price that we had already paid to do a beautiful landscaped job around all of our bushes with the black mulch. We then set up a regular service with them so that they come out twice a month and cut our grass, edge the lawn, and weed whack. What used to take me many frustrating hours on my day off is now completed by professionals quickly and at a very reasonable price. I get an invoice once a month that I can pay through PayPal and I never have to worry about cutting my grass again.

I used Mahesh for about a year. Everything was generally fine until we had a dispute over the fact…read morethat a tree that he sold me started to die pretty much right away. I asked him to not charge me for that tree because it died. His rather bizarre response was that 1) The contract I signed did not hold him responsible for whether the plants he sold lived or died and 2) He would have to raise his prices if he only sold plants that lived and, further, 3) He would not make enough money if he provided refunds for plants that died right away. Try to imagine another business where the product goes bad right away and the vendor refuses to issue a refund or replacement. But that was not the big issue. (Incidentally, he didn't seem to know a basic rule of planting; the pot needs to be 3 times as large as the plant's root structure for the plant to flourish.) I offered to pay his bill, less the cost of the dead plant, but he refused this offer. I had bigger things to pay attention to, so I just let it drop for a couple weeks, then received a note from him threatening to file a mechanic's lien against my property, despite the fact that it had been less than 30 days since he performed the service. I ended up paying the bill in full, because I don't really have time to get involved in slander of title issues and such. So, if you want a vendor who sells you dead plants and then extorts payment, he's your guy.
