We set up a date as well as an alternate rain date. The day before he called to verify that they would be here. They were here exactly as described and did the work. Also gave tips on lawn care.
Description of Work: Lawn was aerated. I've hired Ken before and will do so again. I also recommended him to my friend. She hired him and was similarly happy with the work and service.

It went well. They came back out because there were some leaves they had left that they ended up cleaning up for me. They went above and beyond.

The crew arrived on time. We went over the plan of what I wanted done and the work started immediately. As always, Paul listened to what was needed. He was a hard worker and worked to make sure all plants were placed where I wanted. I am very happy with the work that was done. The beds at the front of the house look great.
Description of Work: Plant some new shrubs as well as remove and replant some shrubs in the beds at the front entrance of house.

Arrived on time and went right to work. They removed all the overgrown forsythia that was planted on the border of my yard and with it, the weeds and vines that were choking everything. They then proceeded to the lawn, stripping it to the dirt or almost there so that I can plant a new type of grass. I told the two workers that I could pay for an extra hour so they cleared all the shrubbery in front of my porch except a hedge that I asked them to leave. They bagged all the cuttings in paper yard bags that I provided and left them exactly where I told them to. Excellent work. Highly recommended.

We purchased the service through Angie's List. I received an email right away letting me know which of the days I would have service done (this was on a Sunday!). I also got a follow up call to confirm that I did know they were coming and asked if I wanted extra services. The next day, the team arrived on time and checked in with me before starting. They were both fast and efficient.

Excellent. Neat, clean and professional work. The cost was definitely more than I have ever paid for this service and there is/was a hauling charge for the clippings - but ... the Kenny's team did an expert job and quickly responded to my inquiry on total cost, and agreed to a modest final invoice adjustment. Definitely will / would hire again.

The team of guys they sent were wonderful!!! I was contacted as soon as I bought the Angies List Big Deal and was scheduled. The two gentlemen who arrived, on time, started to work right away. I gave them bags for the weeds, and some buckets for the pulling. I added an extra hour for the job, because I did have an exceesive amount of weeds and clean up. These guys worked very hard and fast, filled the bags for me to put a curb for trash. I can not for the life of me remember their names, to mention here. I would buy another deal or have them come out for leaf clean up!

Roy and Doug were great. They showed up on time. They listened to what I wanted done. They were careful and never stopped working for a little over 2 hours. They divided a plant into 3 plants and they planted them for me. They laid 11 bags of mulch that we had purchased. They took all of the debris away for me. They were respectful of my property. They even swept up some debris that fell in the street and put it on the truck! These guys were great. Ken, the owner was also really nice to deal with. I would definitely call them next year.

Great job. Paid for four hours and opted for two people for two hours. They arrived 15 minutes early and did a great job. Came back a second time for additional work and did a great job then as well. I spoke with Ken several times regarding scheduling and we was very accommodating and courteous. Would definitely use them again.

Interesting. Our people were there for two days and you called us back. Your property was a mess and all you worried about was how much time it was taking. The fact that you did work yourself was because you put us under a time constraint. We took away a full truck of debris on one day and a partial on another. So, two days work, two trucks of debris and the price is high. I don't think so.

They did a good job removing the weeds and brush. The job was not completed due to time constraints, since there was too much that needed doing. A follow up visit will probably be required.

The men arrived promptly, they did exactly what I asked for the advertised cost. At the end of the 2-hour Angie's List "deal" I asked them to stay another hour, they reminded me it would cost an additional $95, and I ok'd it. Very happy with their work.

As shared Ina letter accompanying my check, the two workers were polite and cooperative; their work was fine; I do not question the hourly cost. this took more time than I had anticipated and I needed to go. I was told a half hour more which would have made a total of 4.5 hours, but I was billed for 5, which for me raised an issue of trust, although I sent a check for whole amount. I indicated in letter with check that having no "rough" estimate made this a negative experience as it would have been difficult to stop them in middle of their work. A $189.00 for two hours deal turned into nearly $500.00.
Description of Work: There were a number of things: trim bushes and cut lowest dead limbs on about a dozen tall oak and maple trees in front yard. I shared that my priority was the limb removal!

Nice for an A on quality. Looks like the only meaningful rating was price, however. This was suppose to be low hanging limbs. I told the owner we were not a tree company and that a tree company might be better. He pushed that we do the work. So our people were climbing up and down ladders and he is unhappy with the time that took. A tree company would probably have been even more expensive. Also, there was 1/2 hour more of work, but then all the packing up. O well.
