The communication between me, as the client, with office staff and the workers went without a blip. Brian Vaughn informed me of some promotions that the company posted on Facebook that I had not been aware of. Vaughn's removed some very large trees/ bulbous roots professionally and in the time we contracted. A five star review doesn't seem adequate. I am very pleased and heartily recommend Vaughn's.

I first contacted Gardenalia in Feb. 2022 and quickly set up a meeting with Patrizia, who came to…read moremy house and listened to us discuss our landscaping needs. We needed an extensive clean-up and redesign of a low-maintenance pollinator garden. Within the next month, she had developed a custom design for our house and we were very impressed during her presentation. Patrizia puts together a wonderful packet of information with photos of all of the plants that she is choosing for you, which is great for a garden newb like me! We quickly put down a deposit and got on the waitlist for her team to install the plants. Initially we were told that we were scheduled for June, but were warned it was hard to guess - which I understand given the nature of the work. I checked in again on May 26th and was told another 5-6 weeks. They ended up beginning the work on July 18th. Not long after they had finished up, we had noticed that one specific type of tree they had planted throughout the perimeter of our yard was dying. We were told that we needed to water them more. At this point, we were already watering them extensively multiple times a day but stepped up our efforts. It also wasn't long before weeds were popping up in our garden and this was requiring daily maintenance while still not keeping on top of it, which is something we definitely didn't want. In September, I reached out again to request them to come by for fall maintenance. When doing our final walk-through after installation, this is the timeframe when Patrizia had told me to reach out... but in her response to my email, she said it was too early to schedule fall maintenance. I asked when would be a good time to schedule and did not hear back. My husband emailed in December expressing disappointment that now, most of the trees they had planted were dying (value $960) and we had never heard back about scheduling fall maintenance. We had another landscaping company come look and they were surprised that Gardenalia did not put down any newspaper or cardboard to suppress weeds. The other company also pointed out several plants that were not fully planted and had exposed rootballs. We did receive an apology from Gardenalia for not responding to our emails in the fall but overall, didn't feel like they appropriately addressed the other concerns we brought up. In their response, they said that paper mulch to suppress weeds would have been a "waste of money" - but just weeks after installation, I began spending hours daily weeding without being able to get on top of it. We did not reply and decided to go with another landscaper's services for maintenance in the spring. In April, we heard from Gardenalia again - they were offering to come by and weed/clean up our yard for free. This was a very nice gesture from them but by now, we had started working with the other landscaping company. A good portion of the plants/trees that Gardenalia had installed, as well as a butterfly bush that had been thriving on our property for years and had been transplanted, did not make it through to this year. Our new landscapers explained this was likely due to being planted or transplanted during such a hot time of year. I wish Gardenalia had explained this as a risk to us as all of the work was very expensive and we would have waited until the next year. This means a greater expense for us this year as we had to pay for extensive weed removal, lay down cardboard to suppress the weeds, and replace the plants and trees that have died. In summary, I do believe Patrizia has a passion and a wonderful eye for landscape design and she was mostly professional and kind in my interactions with her. The garden was very beautiful before the weeds became too much to deal with. I was less impressed with the maintenance team and the work that they did with the installation or in responding to our questions and concerns, especially for how much we spent on the project (over $12k!). I do appreciate that they tried to make it right in the end but did not feel confident that the quality of the work would be what we wanted. For what it's worth, we have not had any issue with weeds popping up since having the other landscaping company put cardboard down.

This is my first year hiring Paslow Lawn Service to cut my grass. I'm not very impressed by the…read moreprofessionalism that I've experienced. They rarely ever come when they are supposed to. If I'm hiring them to cut the grass weekly, I expect them to be there to cut the grass weekly, sometimes it's at least 10 days until they even show up, and I'm having to call/text asking where they are. If paying for the every 10 days, they sometimes don't show up for 2 weeks. There has been less than satisfying excuses every time. There's never anything offered to please the customer to potentially try to make up for what they didn't do correctly, which IMO, is poor customer service. When they actually do show up and cut the grass, there's always stray grass strands standing up throughout the yard and doesn't look like the best job is done with the trimmer along the edges. The only thing that is fair, is the price per cut (but if it's done correctly). I most likely would not hire again for another year.

For years, my neighbors have been using Simmons Landscaping for grass-cutting, leaf-blowing,…read moremulching, and other services. When a different company unexpectedly stopped mowing my grass for weeks in the late spring/early summer, I saw employees from Simmons Landscaping on my street, and I pleaded with them to cut my grass. I felt extremely thankful that they agreed to pick me up as a customer during the busy season! Even before I hired Simmons Landscaping, I noticed that their employees were always very timely and courteous in their service. They waved and said hello to neighbors who were not their customers. Now that I am a customer of Simmons, I can attest to the quality of their work. The employees reliably arrive at my house each week to cut my grass. They are very detail-oriented with weed-whacking in hard-to-access areas of my lawn, and at the end of their work, they use a leaf blower to blow debris off my driveway, sidewalk, and steps. If you live in the North Hills of Pittsburgh, then I recommend that you hire Simmons Landscaping. If they cannot fit you in as a customer this year, then maybe they will be able to do so next season.

As we all experienced issues in our neighborhood with downed trees and such after the weekend wind…read morestorms, woke up Monday to a pine leaning half way to my neighbors house. Called half a dozen tree services. Almost everyone was tied up doing storm cleanups. Had a local company working 3 doors down, asked them for a bid, they never took the 60 steps up the street to even look? Another group showed up and gave an astronomically high bid (does storm cleanup warrant extra $$$). My neighbor had used lisowski tree in the past and several others in the community stated they do good work and are reasonable too. They arrived Monday afternoon, gave us a bid that was almost half of the cost of previous companies, and stated would arrive Tuesday am around 7:30. Tues am arrives, they were on time, wasted no time setting up, got the leaning pine and another one that was in the way down in 2 hours. Cleaned up everything as they went, and couldn't have been more courteous and professional! Very satisfied with price, quality of work, promptness. Would recommend to anyone. Thank you for a great job!
