Provided grading, tilling, soil amendments and mulching of an area where we had removed about 15 trees. We have never seen such hard workers as Justin and Jordon, who pulled many of the roots by hand if the equipment didn't get them. Nick came by to finish the mulching and put down grass seed where the equipment made a path Thank you for giving us a wonderful canvas to complete our back yard. Highly recommend this company

My full review is in the pictures below as it is too long to post here...in summary:…read more Please do not hire this company. If this was just "poor work", my review would be very different. Unfortunately, I am back to weekly weeding my entire property, I am out $4326.00 and was purposefully lied to and ghosted. 03/20/2025 - I had Sal Tufano come out to my home for a consultation for services. I stated that my entire goal is that I am looking to eliminate the weeds in the garden bed areas. He mentioned sprucing up with plants and I stated at least 5 times (and probably many more) that we can discuss "beautifying" these areas at a later date...my only concern at this point was getting rid of the weeds and KEEPING THEM AWAY. We previously had rocks in some of these areas and I expressly told Sal that I am unfamiliar with HOW this should be done, just that I am looking for a solution and brought in the professionals to guide me. He told me that we should take all the rocks away and then put down 5 inches of mulch, which will solve my problem. He said the key was that the depth of 5 inches will eliminate the weeds.I asked him how long will that last for and he said we will want to refresh the top because it will get packed down in 1 year, but that will get me through the year with no problems. In retrospect, Sal was a complete "used car salesman" in his tactics, to oversell me and underdeliver and distract me from the process so that I would not ask more clarifying questions, however one thing I can make explicitly clear is that I communicated and over communicated my goal - get rid of the weeds for good and he promised me that his solution for my problem was to put down 5 inches of mulch. 03/26/2025 - The job was completed. Fast forward TWO weeks and I had weeds popping up all over the place. TWO WEEKS passed for something I was promised would be a permanent solution, so long as I added more mulch in 1 year. For $4,326.00, I certainly was lied to and did not get my money's worth. 04/07/25- I contacted both Sal and Jason so that I could show them the weeds that developed over a 2 week span. DID NOT GET A RESPONSE. 04/08/25- I texted again. This time I got a response from Jason: "Hi Lindsey, I did get your text and look over the photos that you sent. I understand that you're frustrated to see weeds pop up after a fresh landscaping project. While the 5-inch mulch barrier is one of the most effective methods for weed suppression, it's important to know that no mulch installation can guarantee 100% weed elimination. Some weeds, particularly those with established root systems or wind-blown seeds, may still find a way through, even with a thick mulch layer. This is a normal and expected part of maintaining any landscape, especially during seasonal transitions. Unfortunately, because we are not licensed pesticide applicators, we are unable to apply any herbicides ourselves. However, many homeowners manage this by spot treating with products like RM43, Roundup, or other similar weed killers--available at most home improvement stores--or by hand-pulling." **Personally, I feel that if spraying these areas from a "licensed pesticide applicator" is the solution, this company should have been honest with me and recommended this solution. I would have thanked them for their time and reached out to a company who COULD help me. Instead, I admitted that I didn't know if they could help me, clearly explained my goals and was lied to so that they could book the job and take my money.** 04/14/25, , 04/17/25, and 04/25/25 - I reached back out explaining to Jason that he must be unaware of my initial conversation with Sal and asked if there was a time the three of us could arrange a call to discuss in person (since they refused the visit to my home). There was no response. **I have also since went back and measured all the mulch areas and none of them even come close to the promised 5 inches of mulch that we paid for. I literally paid for product that was not received.** (pictures included).

The paver work will last 50 years, the bushes he selected were large and lush and even bigger than I first selected, everything is well placed and level! The sod work was excellent, they cleaned up everything from gravel in the street and yard to any trash or mess each night. For the Sod, they hand and shovel removed the old weeded areas without pesticides and made sure the earth was properly prepared with a layer of sod dirt before they laid it down. I highly recommend G and R if you want the work done properly and to last. Thank you Gairy and your whole polite and knowledgeable team.

First job: great Second job: decent, but some of the plants…read moreweren't the greatest quality and had to chase around quite a lot to get them to replace. Third job: (Last fall) paid for manual pulling/removal of Bermuda grass from garden beds, plus weed control and mulch. Emphasis on manual removal - explicitly was told they would pull all the Bermuda out manually to get all the roots out. Took a bit of chasing around to get them to actually get it on the books, and then when they did come they just buzzed everything with a string trimmed and sprayed weed killer over that. We agreed to still pay the full price on the condition that Gairy would send a team out in the spring once the Bermuda woke up and inevitably came through the mulch since it wasn't removed. He agreed, and we left it at that. Flash forward to this year and has completely ghosted us and been non-responsive. Even tried asking about having a bunch of other services added so that it wouldn't be a totally free trip, but still No luck. We finally gave up on any hope of getting the promised services, hired Mr. Outdoor Living, dropped like $4K on services with them instead and will be sticking with them next year when we do a sprinkler system and stone retaining walls.

The lawn mowing service was good and done quickly. The only issue I had was his communication. We…read morewere having normal communication via yelp. I had him cut my lawn two times and everything was great as far as work and the communication. But for some reason the last invoice he sent went to my spam, as if it was sent from a different email account. Long story short he didn't get paid because I didn't receive the invoice until I reached out and asked about it. He sent it to me directly and I paid it. Well I guess he was not happy about that and no longer answered requests to schedule my next cut. Complete radio silence. I had already paid him for the first cut without issue. The second cut's invoice was a weird spam issue. A simple mistake. But then to completely ignore everything after was very unprofessional. Like I said the work he did was great. But that weird silent treatment was not acceptable. That is what keeps him from getting 5 stars. The only reason I am writing this review is for the fact that I am in search of a lawn care company again. I am no longer cutting my own grass and when I requested quotes, he was the first to give me a quote which made me laugh.

The build of the wall needed to be redone six times to get it right, but the final product is beautiful. When it comes time to build, you have to stay on top of Bob to get the details right. For example, the first time the wall was built, it had an entire extra course on it, and it was not symmetrical. There was another issue with the concrete pour and not properly capping a pipe, but that is a minor issue. They have the skill, but lacked the attention to detail, which required so much re work. Overall though, I recommend them and would use them for my next project.
