I am a very laid back person, so I don't write this review lightly as I like to support local small businesses and write positive reviews, but I write this to warn everyone to not hire TD Bully for any large projects. We hired them to demolish the front wall of our house and rebuild the brick, a job they said they were experienced with and it turned out to be an absolute nightmare costing us a lot of money (over $25,000) and personal time invested. I will not go in to all of the details because it would take pages to write, but here is a summary: We paid an initial deposit for the job March 2022, and as of April 2023 the job was not complete and at that point we had enough excuses (we clearly gave them plenty of time to rectify the situation) and fired them. We subsequently hired another reputable contractor who had to redo the small amount of work that TD Bully had done in that time frame and it only took them 4 weeks to complete the project. Of note, many days Tyler would simply not show up to work even if he said he would be there. Or he would show up at 12 or 1 and work until 4. Whereas we would see other contractors in the neighborhood start work at 8am and stay until sunset. So he is very unreliable and the work was very very very poor. The person who lives with me thankfully is very handy and understands workmanship and had to take A LOT of time to follow up on Tyler's very poor work. It was like a full time job to chase him down and follow up with him. We could not live in the house for approximately 9 months because there was no front wall, just a tarp and we had a newborn during this time (thankfully we do have another apartment we can live in). But this whole experience ruined half of my maternity leave as we were planning to be in the house (Tyler promised the job would be done by the end of October 2022, the baby was born November 2022) with our newborn and my mom but that wasn't able to happen due to the lack of a front wall and poor heating inside and danger entering the house due to it being an open construction site. Although we should have fired TD Bully a long time before, the straw that broke the camel's back was a stop work order was put on our house because Tyler had lied and said work permits were in place when they clearly were not. After we fired him he then threatened us saying we owed him more money (so laughable) even after we had already paid him close to $30,000 for a job that was not even close to complete. Thankfully our credit card company did review the dozens of pages of email and text message evidence of the lack of professionalism, poor work and lack of completing the project and did refund us our money. So I can't speak to their landscaping work, but for any other big projects or projects involving brick work I would run far far away from this company as it was an absolute nightmare to work with them and there are many other reputable options in Philadelphia and the surrounding region. read more

A horrific experience dealing with T.D. Bully. They were hired to remove grout and expansion caulk on a bluestone patio and re-grout and re-caulk expansion joints around a pool. It isn't just a really bad job, they actually made things worse -- they dropped cloths in the pool that we had to retrieve; dropped a tool into the pool and allowed it to rust the bottom of the pool; left cement slabs in several areas on the property; they were instructed to cover and protect an organic edible garden bed but did not. The owner's answer to this last incident was that he needed to go to other jobs as he was growing his business and couldn't be here to watch over his workers. I'll let the photos do the rest of the talking. read more

Tyler was great to work with. He went above and beyond to build steps off our porch and even used provided stones to match our home. It's hard to find a contractor willing to construct step using traditional masonry techniques, but T.D. Bully delivered. Would absolutely hire them again! read more

Wow! Ran into the owners of TD Bully Landscaping on Tuesday morning at the Dunkin Donuts on New Falls Road. A man came in behind ranting and raving. Saying he hates ignorant people. How dare I let the door slam in his face. There was no one behind me when I entered the building. I looked at him and he said yeah I'm talking to you. You are an ignorant person. I said I didn't know any one was behind me. He continued and left. I went out to take a picture of his truck intending to call his boss. I went back inside only to be followed this time by the man and a girl. They came in asked me why I took a pic of truck and continued to verbally assault me. The woman said if I was going to post something on Facebook it wouldn't matter because they were the owners. These 2 are the owners and represent their company in this way. Totally unprofessional! I just wanted everyone to know how they treat people in real life. Oh, and certainly don't talk to either of them until they've had their coffee in the morning! read more

Tyler and Danielle did a terrific job installing a new paver patio in our back yard. They were energetic, enthusiastic and most importantly professional! They followed the contract and completed the job on time and on budget. They treated our yard like it was their own, which we really appreciate. They also have followed up to check on the status and to make sure we are satisfied. Strongly recommend this team!! read more

I had a horrible experience working with Danielle and Tyler. I used them last year and pre-paid over $2,000 for lawn maintenance services (including seeding, aerating, and biweekly lawn mowings). Not only did they cancel/reschedule multiple times for a million different reasons without notice (equipment not working, their phone not in service, etc.), but then they wanted to charge me extra money at the end of the season for leaf pickup & removal. My contract included 15 lawn mowing sessions throughout the season, but only 12 were done. So theoretically, you'd think there would be funds left over for leaf removal at the end of the year. Nope! They performed the job and demanded I pay a separate service fee instead of transferring the funds over. When I told them I would not agree to this, Tyler then proceeded to call me while I was at work and yell at me over the phone. He called me ignorant and even threatened to sue me/take me to court for this $250 leaf pick up & removal fee (even though I'd already pre-paid them over $2,000 for services they did not complete)! It was so unprofessional. My husband and I ended up doing most of the yard work last year and I honestly think TD Bully was a waste of our hard-earned money. Do yourselves a favor - either save your money and DIY or go with a more reliable family owned business. I would not recommend them! read more
