If I could offer no star, I would…read more Dave Gugger is a joke, a coward and highly misleading in his work ethic and skill. He provided us with services which included underground drainage from our foundation, removal of crushed stone (from a previously laid above-ground pool), ground leveling, sod-placement and construction of 2 gardens made from Penn flagstone. NONE of these jobs were done correctly. The crushed stone still lies beneath our new sod and constantly dries out because the proper amount to create an appropriate depth for grass roots to grow was not removed. The stone gets too hot in the sun and burns the grass from the root up. After 2-3 days of no water, there is a perfect 33' round patch of dead grass in my yard, reminding us of the pool long-gone. The gardens BOTH fell within 2 weeks of being built - one of which was put together by a temp; a 16-yo young man who was happy to admit this was his first rock wall! The stones used were NOT what we had ordered as he did not properly obtain the product we wanted in time. He snuck in random round boulders which was the baseline to it's eventual fail. I personally had to remove all the stones, gather new material and rebuild the gardens myself. Plants that were supposed to be REMOVED before building the garden (variegated hostas) were not taken out properly and I still struggle with constantly having to weed out the persistent babies of the larger plants that make their way through the soils. As anyone with hosta-removal experience knows, you PAY to have someone remove them properly because if they are not, they will keep coming back! They are choking out the rest of my plants and it is extremely discouraging. The drainage pipe that was installed leaks out to a location less than 20' from our foundation and is at a 15degree grade HIGHER than the foundation itself - so all the water that is removed seeps right back into our basement. Our investemnt of a dehumidifier was probably the best in our whole experience - but that of course was only AFTER we constantly find 2-4 inches of water in our basement. Of all the things, here is my biggest, sincerest complaint.... when he was confronted with the problems we were having, he repeatedly refused to reply to emails, would not answer his phone. Once, we got him to answer (when he must not have checked to see if it was us) and he pulled the good ol' fashioned "Hello? HELLO? I can't hear you. *click*" Another time, he had the audacity to tell me (during the period of my extremely frequent and frustratingly unanswered phone calls) that he was on vacation where he dropped his phone and broke it. Now, I understand everyone needs a vacation - and I totally understand accidents happen. But I also know that when you, as the OWNER, are on a 3-week vacation and you lose your phone the FIRST day, you would likely try to pick up a new one, or at least set up your answering account to say "On vaca, I'll return your call as quickly as I am able." Perhaps a vaca-message on your webpage?? Nothing but dead air from this guy. As a business owner myself, I am shocked that any owner would treat paying customers, and good fair people, with such disregard. We did not ask much of him when it came to fixing the problems. We asked that he either get out to our home and fix ALL the errors he and his crew had made or to refund us JUST OUR LABOR COST!!! Just the labor. We'll keep the product and do the damn work ourselves (and better than he did!) But he ignored us. I apologize to those who look for a short yay-or-nay review - but there is no way I'm going to let this extremely poor businessman slide for the damages he has done. We are now slated to have our entire back yard excavated to remove the stone he was paid to do in the first place. I do not apologize to Dave for this scathing review - which will be passed to the BBB and Atty General. Thanks for ruining our yard, DG. The Touma Family.

I left for work in the morning and when I got home the trees were gone and there was a stack of firewood in the back yard. The yard was cleaner than before he did the work! Last year we had him clear a whole section of trees and stumps (about a quarter acre) to make room for more lawn and bring some more light in. It only took him two days! And what a difference it makes in both the yard and the house...so much more light. Also last year we had HUGE pine tree up-root and come down during high winds. Man were we glad that it didn't fall towards the house. I called Dan again and he took care of it. I would recommend Dan for anything tree-related weather it's big or small.

He devised a plan to preserve as much of the original pine walls as possible and integrated the new pieces beautifully. He identified the root of the problem - leaks at the chimney - and he had it sealed and patched fast. We then made a surprise discovery - our old log beam mantle had rotted through. We had no idea how we would find a piece of wood that would match the cabin and Jim worked magic. In two hours he found a gorgeous salvage mantle replacement - amazing. I can't recommend them more highly thoughtful, hard working and collaborative. He solved all of our problems and we plan to work with him as our go to crew from now on.

I worked with Drew from AAA Family Home & Lawn Care in mid-September on a large lawn restoration…read moreproject covering nearly 10,000 sq/ft. The job included aerating, seeding, and spreading about 6 yards of a 50/50 loam and compost mix. Drew arrived exactly when he said he would and got right to work. He completed the entire project in one day -- not by cutting corners, but by working hard and staying focused. The results speak for themselves. Drew's communication, pricing, and professionalism were excellent from start to finish. He kept me informed throughout the process, was responsive to questions, and followed through on every detail. For context, I had worked with another landscaping company the prior spring on a similar project. Despite spending a comparable amount, that experience was a disaster -- poor communication, zero support, and the result was a yard full of weeds that looked worse than before. I was understandably hesitant to hire another landscaper, but Drew quickly put all those concerns to rest. His honesty, reliability, and quality of work far exceeded expectations. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and highly recommend AAA Family Home & Lawn Care to anyone looking for a trustworthy, hardworking professional who truly takes pride in what he does.
