Collegiate Landscaping

We hired them last year and again this year. They do an outstanding job and we are very pleased. We are having them do another project for us beside the regular weekly service. You will not regret hiring them.

Would use them again!

If I could give no stars then I would do so. I requested an estimate and received it via email. I had no idea they had even come to the house however, this was also my first time working with a landscaping company. They had some good reviews online so I trusted them. The guy came out to my house, I went outside and told him I was going to be on a work call. I wanted to show him ahead of time that I had hydrangea bushes planted on the tree line of my yard - all the way around the perimeter. I said do not touch these or cut them down. He told me,;I have got this I said so please do not touch the hydrangeas - showing him where they were. He said no problem. I went outside after my call and all but two (the two in the front flower beds) were cut down. He had mowed over all of them. I immediately called Collegiate Landscaping and I was told that the person who came out to my property could not have done what he did because he has been mowing lawns for 16 years. I again, explained what happened. This back and forth conversation continued. Devin said he would come out so I could show him what happened. He asked if he should text me when he arrived and I said yes. I have little dogs that like to bark as well. I received a text the following morning that he would be at my home shortly. Then, a while later I received a text saying he had been to the property and did not see any evidence of hydrangeas. He asked if I could send him a picture. Now, he was supposed to have me show him when he arrived. There was never any contact. He also told me he walked all around my property - apparently while I was inside. There was no evidence of him ever being at my property that morning. I told him if he had questions and he was at my property that was the time to ask but since I know he was not there and the fact that his guy mowed over my plants, it makes sense why no one would be able to see them. Since he asked for a picture, I sent him one of what they did look like based on one of the ones that still existed and the space where one of the other plants were. I was then told that if I could show them what was destroyed they would replace them. It is hard to show them something that is not there anymore. I told them how much the total was for the plants they destroyed since I have the invoice and they said they would replace it. When I told them what the price was they said they will not accept the fact that I had these planted last year as proof and will not accept the invoice. They offered to come out again when they knew I called them out on the fact that they lied about coming to my house the first time. Bottom line - do not work with Collegiate unless you want your lawn destroyed.

They came and mowed the front lawn, but could not mow back lawn because the car was blocking the gate. However, they never let us know when they were coming so we were not home to move the car. When I called to inquire they said they would send someone out to evaluate and that person never came either. So I ended up with a half mowed lawn. Not to thorough in my opinion. However the part of the lawn that was mowed looked fantastic.

Fast turnaround, extremely professional, a little on the expensive side but you get what you pay for. They did a great job!

Fast turnaround, quick work, great communication.

I contacted this company last fall along with two other companies to remove a row of arborvitae trees. I sent them photos and descriptions of the job.This company was the low bid. The next one was only $25 higher. It took several calls and several weeks to get them to actually do the job. They were supposed to call before they came so I could get our cars moved. They just showed up and started working without even knocking on our door. Two lackluster workers with no personality. It took them two days just to cut them down to about 4 feet stumps. The company then told me they couldn't do any more because the ground was frozen and we would have to wait until spring. I finally called them, it took them weeks to get out to do the job, then they tell me that they couldn't actually remove the stumps and cover with topsoil as promised. I had to hire another company to finish the job. It took five months to get this completed. Throughout this I made numerous calls and emailed them and they did not return calls. They have an answering service and I left messages with them. The communication is horrible.

Great service! Patio was finished in a timely manner and it looks beautiful!

We hired Collegiate to clean up our lawn and fertilize last spring and will likely do it again, and expand the scope of their work. We loved coming home to a much better looking lawn, at a very competitive price.

This company completed our small project to our satisfaction and in a timely manner. The crew were friendly and did everything we asked of them. Other companies were double the price.

added topsoil and graded an area in our yard that used to be our pool and deck. Seeded the area also. all work was done plus other small tasks we requested were done also. Very professional and courteous workmen.

They do great work, really work with their customers.

Great customer service and attention to detail. I would most definitely hire them again, thank you.

The new paver walkway is exactly what was needed. It solved the slope and puddle problems, and it's both functional and attractive. We're very pleased with our updated entrance.

They are extremely reliable and have never left us stranded. My husband has to leave for work at 6:30AM every week day and they have always cleared our driveway and walkways before he leaves for the day. We have been using them for all of our outdoor maintenance services as well and they have exceeded our expectations in all regards. I highly recommend this company for anyone who is looking for a high quality all around landscaping service.

I find them to be extremely professional, honest, economic and committed to their work.
