Description of Work: Terrible communication skills. Your time is of no concern to this company.

Response from LUNAR LANDSCAPING
Hello I am very surprised to see a F rating. Please note that we did not perform any services on your property. We meet with you at a time convenient for your wife to discuss the project. We provided a proposal for the work discussed within two days. We advised you of scheduling and how to return your signed proposal to schedule the project. We then spoke with you on the phone to ask if you had any questions on the proposal. Four weeks pass and we receive a call asking time frame for the project completion. We advised you that we have not received signed authorization, you then said that you faxed the signed proposal, in which we informed you that we do not have a fax machine and did not receive authorization to complete the project. Another four weeks pass and we receive another call from you asking for time frame for project completion. We called and left a message stating yet again that we never received authorization and asked again for you to accept the proposal. (by signature and date), and return it to us, and we can schedule the project. I am unsure what communication flaws that you see, but we certainly provided all requested information and instructions for scheduling. Good luck with you project, and please note that we do value both yours and our time, and strive to please each client we interact with.

We hired Vito after interviewing a number of landscapers. We were interested in redoing the front of our house, and Vito impressed us as the landscaper who had flair, and was an artist as well as being a landscaper. During his interview, I I asked him, "If you had free rein to do what you wanted to do with the front if our house, what would you do?" After thinking about the proposition, his eyes lit up, and he came up with a beautiful plan that is very stunning! His plan showed that he had imagination and flair, and that he was not afraid of doing the unusual! The quality I appreciate about Vito the most is that he handles his business from the ground floor. He is out there with his employees, getting his hands dirty, and directing their actions to make sure that things are done the correct way. I like it when you see the owner of the company handling his/her business from the ground floor! He really wants to please you, and gain your approval! We also have his company doing the normal maintenance tasks such.as cutting the grass, and trimming the bushes, planting grass seed, fertilizing, and so on. Although he does not come out on these days, his workers are friendly, and willing to give it that extra to satisfy their customers. In this area, Vito's imagination and flair come through, also. We are very satisfied customers, and look to have a long relationship with Vito!
Description of Work: Vito redid the entire front of our house to improve the curb appeal. He, also, moved a tree we had in the front of the house to the backyard where it will get more sun.

This company was the best. Owner was very well versed on different designs and plants. They came when promised, did the work and cleaned up fantastically. I would use them over again and would tell others about them. These were the best service providers I have had all summer. I am doing remolding so I can compare them to the other workmen I have had here.

Hello. Against our advice, you requested to have the front yews pruned back below the front windows. (Over 10" of height and growth to be removed) I advised you that trimming the shrubs in this manor would cause damage to the shrubs yet you still wanted us to move forward with the pruning. Once we completed the pruning, you requested to have your front yews trimmed approx. 4" lower total of approx 14" and additional growth removed from the sides of the yews, overhanging your paver walkway and we complied with your request.

Gave me an estimate for a fairly big landscaping job. I liked what he put together, although he did not give me what I asked for & I'm not sure why. When I asked him to revise the quote to include the lava rocks I asked for (vs. other rocks) he told me it would be $500 more & he ended up quoting me $575 more. Asked him to break out the quote as I likely would want to make changes & it would be easier for me to figure it out if I had breakdowns - he wouldn't do it. He also told me a few times he's NOT a lawn maintenance company - which I see from other reviews he does do. I really wanted to go with him but it just got increasing difficult to communicate with him & the longer it took, the farther out his estimated install dates became. The last straw was we agreed on everything May 2nd & it was a week before I got his final proposal to sign, then in having to mail a check it would've been almost 2 weeks later - again delaying install. That was his delay (not sending proposal when he said he would, me having to follow up, then scanner not working so him mailing it) & I asked him to pencil me in since we'd been working together so long & this delay was on his end, not mine. He wouldn't do so & again, his install dates were going to be pushed out. I actually signed & sent the proposal back & had to tell him to tear it up & I cancelled my check - too bad, when the delay is due to the contractor they need to be a bit more flexible.

Response from LUNAR LANDSCAPING
Hello [member name removed] , In response to your review. I am sorry you feel the way you do reguarding our company. [member name removed]contacted us reguarding installation of shrubs and bushes in the back yard of her home. I stopped at the property and took the dimensions and designed a lay out and rendering per her requests. After her receiving the proposal, we set a meeting to go over (in person) and discuss the outline and proposal at her home. At the meeting, she asked what a time frame would be on the installation, and I explained to her that it would be 4-6 weeks weather permitting with a signed agreement and deposit. 10 days passes and I recieve an email, asking for a change order for a more decrotive stone (lava Rock), I revise the proposal and email a change order. Approx. a week passes and I receive an email stating that they would like to remove items from the initial proposal due to the 4-6 week time frame, and not wanting to delay a portion of the project. I agree and re-send an updated proposal reflecting the changes and reducing the cost. A few days pass and I receive an email, stating that they would like to re-include the items previously removed. I comply and send as updated proposal re-including the items previously removed. I then talk with [member name removed] on the phone and we agree to another change in the proposal to include aeration for the property at no additonal cost per he request, I explain to [member name removed], for landscape installations, lawn maintenance equiptment is not brought to the job site. We both verbaly agree to the addition to the contract, and I send a finalized, updated contract through the mail, with deposit terms for the project. I receive an email stating to pencil her project in for the installation. I send an email to re- inform [member name removed] that we cannot schedule the project without a signed contract and deposit. At this point, from the mention of the 4-6 week time line, over a month ago, I explained the project would schedule 4-6 weeks from receving the signed agreement. She was not satisified with this time frame. We as a company do everthing in our power to go above and beyond what is expected from our clients. Scheduling of projects is performed when we receive the agreements back signed. I do understand that we cannot please everybody with this policy. but what is right, is right. Below is the last email we sent to [member name removed]with her response [member name removed], as a contractor, we need to follow the policies we have set in place. When i met with you at your property, i explained that in order to schedule the project, a signed contract and a deposit was required. I have been working with you on this project for over 30 days, making sure that the design and the layout would work well and mature to the final result you were looking for. I always go above and beyond what is ever expected, and I had explained this to you. I complied with the requests for the initial change orders to the walkway , and sent a revised proposal. I also sent a revised proposal, eliminating the perimeter sod work, and the turf restoration. We had also agreed to work together with the irrigation contractor with the installtion that has yet to be scheduled, to eliminate any unforeseen complications. The delays in your project were due to the change orders you requested. I do understand that the final three day delay was our fault due to our scanner not working correctly, and us having to mail the finilized contract to your home. If an opening for the landscape install arises sooner than the projected time frame, I would be sure to contact you and schedule for earlier install date. Please understand that we do schedule projects as they are finalized and accepted. I am sorry that you are not going to move forward with our design and installation of the landscape. If there is any thing we can do to change your mind and proceed with the installation, please let me know. Thank you, Vito Lunar Landscaping [member name removed]Respose : We verbally agreed on everything last Friday on the phone. It took you 7 days to get me the final proposal. Now you are saying end of June / July install. Set yourself up on PayPal to accept credit & we will put the deposit through today. I even asked you to "pencil me in" while I wait for your final proposal, knowing you were having problems. You wouldn't do it. (due to not having a signed agreement) We're done. Again, we our sorry you feel that we were not responsive to your requests. Sincerely, Vito (Lunar Landscaping)

Vito and his team do a great job at a great price. He completely redesigned our back yard and put in new trees for us in a prior season and everything is looking good. He actually did all that redesign work at a much lower cost than others were bidding and it came out looking incredible. Now he is doing weekly lawn service for us and we will continue to use him for anything we need in the future. Vito is our landscaper of choice for jobs big or small. His bids are very competitive, his crew is professional and courteous, and he values his customers.

The guy knows his business and really works hard to get you the best possible lawncare. He educated us on the current condition of our lawn. He identified plants we long forgot what they were and how to care for them. Our front yard pops. ( to us) The cost of service is aprox b/c my wife handled the accounting. We use him now for maintenence.
Description of Work: Vito landscapped the front yard by laying sod, sending two downspout drains underground, and nice big river rocks around a tree. He handled a feisty neighbor with tact and kindness. His crew worked well and there were alot of them too! They did the work shortly after we negotiated a great price ( with coupon) and in the ideal weather of fall.

As of this review I still have not heard back from them.
Description of Work: This review is based on my most recent contact with the Lunar Landscaping. At the beginning of May I started to wonder when Lunar would be starting work since I had hired them last summer for lawn and landscape work. When I called I was told that letters had been sent out to all the customers weeks before and they had finished their "spring cleaning" and was starting to regular lawn maintenance. When I was asked if Ii needed my yard cleaned I told her yes and that I had not received any letter in the mail from them. She asked if I needed cleaning done and with the winter and recent flooding I did need work done. She told me that she would email me the letter so I could sign off on it which would allow the workers in my yard and on my property which I was very willing to do. She also told me she would talk to Vito, the owner just to verify the work could ne done and would call me about that. I rushed home from work and checked my email which had no letter so I called thinking maybe the eamil I gave her was taken down incorrectly. She said she didnt send it yet but was going to as soon as she could. She also said again she would talk to Vito. I thanked her again and waited for the email. That was on May 1st and I still have yet to hear or get anything. I was very happy with this company last year when they did my lawn and Vito was always very nice and willing to help out with ideas or suggestions. I like to hire local and keep it in the community which is also another reason I hired them.

It was perfect. The yard was cleaned up, huge old bushes removed and dug up, dirt was cultivated so I can plant flowers soon. The team was very fast but also very through with all they did.
Description of Work: Called and asked for someone to come out for a quote on spring cleanup, etc...Vito came out within 2 hours of call. We went over everything I felt I needed done and also on some things I want done in the future. He was very professional and very nice. I hired him for the clean-up and am also going to have him remove a tree stump and cleanup a tree that over hangs on the garage. He arrived promptly when he said he was and the job done was beautful!! I have already given his name to another prospective customer. Thank you again!!

Vito was extremely responsive and came out to give an estimate the next day. He was very helpful in making suggestions for how to fix an area of the yard with poor drainage that was causing our window wells to fill with water. The quote he gave us was very competitive. His labor was a very small portion of the cost; the majority of the cost was due to the large amount of river rock we wanted installed, and that costs what it costs. He was able to schedule the work for the next week. His crew did all the work while we were at work; we never saw them. We came home the beautiful finished product. We will definitely use him again in the future.
Description of Work: Lunar Landscaping laid sod around a driveway and patio that we had had replaced. They also removed weeds and over growth from several areas of our property and laid river rock to prevent the weeds from re-growing. They also re-graded an area that had poor drainage.

Vito, a nice and professional young man came out to my house 2 hours after I called him to give me an estimate on cleaning the property up for spring and re- mulching. His crew showed up the very next day and did a fabulous job. I decided to hire him for weekly maintenance as well. He also showed interest in helping me with other yard projects. His pricing was very reasonable and affordable.
