* Since Zach provided such good service in 2013, wanted to use him again. * Called Spring of 2014 but never heard back. * Called in Aug to set up a date. * When he didn't show on the scheduled date, I called him. * Rather than calling back to indicate he wasn't feeling well, he left an email which I didn't see until that evening. * When he finally called back 1.5 wks later, told him I found another landscaper. * Was surprised at the lack of Zach's responsiveness.
Description of Work: Did not use this service.

The work went along very smoothly no problems no mistakes and in a timely manner. The price was set up front and no deviations were made. He also does my snow plowing and lawn care very well and is very professional. Any one you hires LT Landscaping for their services Should make clear of the cost. If the grass is too high then the price will go up also if the snow fall requires more time on the job along with more man power to complete the job then of course the price will go up. Anybody should know that fact. A quoted price is not the FINAL bill other things have to play a part in the cost. .Anybody with any kind of intelligent knows this Fact. There is no comparison of shoveling 3 to 6 inches of snow to a blizzard.LT Landscaping has been providing services for me for over 4 years and I stand by LT Landscaping and his crew 110%
Description of Work: LT Landscaping weeded and cultivated my flower beds and pond

When Zach first took care of snow removal for my mother's house in December, he was wonderful. His staff was efficient and respectful and I was very grateful to have peace-of-mind that my mother would be dug out because she lives in Connecticut and I live on Long Island. When we first discussed terms he stated that they would clear her snow for $50.00 a snowfall. I felt that this was a very fair price. Unfortunately, this changed. They started coming later and one time they didn't come until it was almost dark outside. He also wasn't all that receptive to phone calls when my mother would call to make sure that she wasn't forgotten. The trouble all came to a head as a result of the blizzard. I totally understood that it was going to take a long time for him to be able to get to my mother. However, I expected that he would live up to the initial agreement whereby they would clear her walks, her driveway and her front porch. This storm made it impossible for her to even open her front door. She was able to get out the side but that left her only one way out of her house in the event of an emergency. When the crew showed up at my mother's house, the came in and used a bobcat to clear the driveway. They did a very sloppy job and were just going to leave without clearing the snow from her walks or her door. I would have totally understood if they planned to come back the next day so long as they were going to clear the front door. However, they were just going to leave. In fact, they had to call Zach to see if it was and quot;okand quot; to clear her walk. They did shovel the walk but the job that they did was very haphazard. In fact, it went through part of a flower bed. Also, they did not clear the snow away from her garbage pail or her little shed where her recyclables are placed. In fact, snow was packed up against them from the bobcat going through. They also shoveled off only half of the front stoop where her front door is. They basically did the bare minimum. I kind of thought that they would return a day or so later to finish up but they never did. We cleaned up ourselves when we went up to visit her days and days after the storm. My mother has had a spinal fusion and cannot shovel at all or she could re-injure her back. I sent an email to Zach to ask him why they hadn't done what he had stated they would. He called me back with an attitude and basically argued with me. I tried to reason with him about making sure that she, at the very least, had two exits from her home. He continued to argue with me and I finally gave up. I did not receive an invoice for a very long time. I actually requested one during the phone conversation. When I received my invoices the totals did not add up to what we agreed to. The first time they cleared snow in December, Zach stated that they could take care of her for $50.00. He invoiced me for $75.00. He sent another invoice covering January and February. He charged $50.00 for two of the dates but $100.00 for the last. My issue is that I was never told to expect extra charges. In truth, I would have paid him extra without being asked for the clearing after the blizzard. I just was unhappy that I hadn't been told to expect it. I sent an email voicing my confusion and he sent me an email quoting his prices. This was something that I had never seen before. He never mentioned it. The extra $25.00 for the first invoice was basically charged for an extra half inch of snow because he was invoicing based on 1-6 inches, 6-12 inches, and then more than 12 inches. I feel $25.00 is a bit excessive for 1/2 inch of snow. In conclusion, I originally would have happily recommended his services to my family and friends. Now I would not. I am unhappy with the fact that I was not fully informed about his charges ahead of time. I am unhappy that he decided to bill me the higher rates after the work had been completed without discussing this with me ahead of time. I am unhappy that it seems like he is always ready to argue no matter how reasonable you try to be.

Their spring and fall clean-ups were always satisfactory. (Fall clean-up in 2010 would've cost us $200 again this year for our roughly 1/4-acre yard.) For $40.00/week, they mowed our entire yard in 10-15 minutes every week from May through October, whether it needed it or not and regardless of whether it had rained or not. They applied weed killer once and fertilizer twice this year, as best I can recall. I saw no visible sign of either. In my opinion, the yard needed more help and fewer mowings but no one advised me relative to what it needed in order to become more of a lawn and less of a "yard." To their credit, they always blew clippings off the sidewalk and driveway and were very reliable about showing up on a weekly basis. I recommend them to anyone who has a well-established lawn and for whom lawn mowing has become too much of a chore.
Description of Work: The company worked for us for 2-3 years, mowing the lawn and doing spring and fall clean-ups. This year I asked them to help improve the quality of the lawn.
called asked for quote( came next day) described work to be performed (added helpful hints:pitchng water away from tent area by providing swail ) came by daily to water service above expectation
Description of Work: mowing ,seeded area for tent location, planting of schrubs, mulching of flower beds, dug ditch to provide power to tent & reception area Also did all prep work for backyard wedding
