worked with larry jones on installing hardscape and landscape lights. not cheap but i would say the experience was excellent until the job was completed. we had a deck light go out immediately, so rather than replacing the bulb ourselves, we asked that larry check to make sure there was nothing wrong with the setup. we didn't think it would be a big deal, but we didn't want to mess with anything under warranty since it failed so quickly after installation. for the ensuing year, larry would promise repeatedly to come out and then simply not show. we were not pushy about it initially, and we were patient as the months went by and we'd have to remind him every few months, but it started becoming ridiculous. now he's gone silent on us. i can't fathom why they would destroy a customer relationship over something that trivial. i tried to be temperate in my ratings, since the initial experience was great, but i shudder to think what would've happened if we had more major problems with the installation.

Fast, friendly, and punctual service. I will use them again for Christmas light installations. I am also planning a minor relandscaping and paver sidewalk installation in the front of my townhome. They will be the first company I call.
Description of Work: I used WinGreen to install my own Christmas light sets. Lights were installed on gutters (C7) and mini lights were installed in two 40' tall trees; and onto the evergreens in the front of my townhome. This was done early December 2013. The contract price also included removal, and careful packing of the light sets. Removal took place third week of February.

On May 6th I met with a representative from Wingren at my home for a patio remodel and renovation. At that time I was informed that there would be a design cost and because we had heard such good things about Wingren, I agreed to it. The gentleman I met with was professional and seemed to really understand the business, I felt very excited and confident that they would come back with a great design for our yard. I gave him a copy of our plat of survey and was told they were very busy but that I should hear from him in few days. Over two weeks later (May 21) I called the office and asked for an update and got an email from the rep who told me he was very back logged and had not started my design. He asked if at this point I was still interested in the service. I told him we were still interested. ,Another month went by (June 20) and I still hadn't heard from anyone. I emailed the rep and asked for the status and if they were unable to do the work I requested the copy of my plat of survey be returned. Another four days went by and I didn't have a response. So, I called the office today and spoke with someone who apologized for the lack of communication and was promised that the original rep would get back with me. He did email me later in the day and told me he was still too back logged and could not plan the job. Our plat of survey was returned this afternoon. I get that everyone has their bad days, I understand a lag in communication here and there, but felt forgotten, franklly. I am extremely disappointed as I had high hopes for the quality of design, work and customer satisfaction I know Wingren provides. We did a lot of research before contacting Wingren. We saw their work, read reviews, etc. The purpose of this review is not based in ill will, but I felt it was necessary to make clear that sadly sometimes folks fall through the cracks even with the most glowing reviews for a given company.
Description of Work: Surveyed our yard for new patio, lighting and other landscape details.

Will keep looking for a service that is a little more flexible on weekly service.
Description of Work: Tom was very nice and we probably would have liked his work. I didn't realize lawn service required a contract for set number of weeks. Given how the weather is, not comfortable with this type of contracted service.

We had Wingren do some major landscaping work for us last year, were extremely happy with the result, and wanted to stay with them. The Spring clean-up was in mid-April, and the only thing we were really unhappy with was the weeding of the beds. For the price, we thought that they could have been a bit more thorough. The day after they were here, we filled half of a 5 gallon bucket with weeds from the beds. The next day we went out of town, so we didn't contact Wingren until the second week in May. The general manager said he'd have a crew out the following week, since he wanted to make sure we were happy with their work. It took two weeks, but the result is what we expected the first time around. We appreciate them coming back and doing a really nice thorough job. The grades we gave were based on the two visits combined. Ultimately, they made it right with an excellent quality delivered professional response and result.

After having my lawn almost killed by my previous landscaping company, and the firm I hired to replace them. I finally broke down and contacted Wingren, primarily on the recommendation of a neighbor, and the fact that they are the company that our association uses. I wanted to use them when the house was first built, but their prices seemed rather high at the time. However, after comparing their rates to costs of the service I had been receiving, they actually turned out to be a value. We hired them on an ad hoc basis to perform the fall cleanup, and the work was done in a timely manner, and the end results looked better than our grounds have ever looked in the fall. Was so impressed that we decided to hire them for our snow removal, and will give them our entire property this summer for maintenance. If our home turns out to only look half as good as the entry and common areas of our development I will be pleasingly kicking myself for not having gone with them in the first place.
Description of Work: Fall clean up. rake leaves, close gardens, trim bushes back, firm edging.

We needed a complete property landscape design and overhaul, and obtained three estimates. All three were very close in price, but two were very close in the selection process. We found the Wingren design much more comprehensive and our design specialist Matt was very easy to work with. We were lucky to have three really good comparable estimates, and could have easily gone with what was our second chioce of the three. After a major home remodel in '08 and '09, we had some landscaping done, but it turned out to be way overpriced and the design not so great. We decided that we would "invest" in a company that we were confident we would get quality work out of, so quality trumped price. That being said, we got what we paid for. After reviewing the design, Matt helped us with some minor changes, and the work went quickly and efficiently. The few very minor glitches were corrected promptly and to our satisfaction. We will definitely stick with them for any follow up work, and will most probably do a phase 2 in the spring.
Description of Work: Complete landscape and some hardscape design and overhaul on just under a half acre private property. The job included: Complete landscape design over current plat of survey A new paver walkway with front porch overlayment Major cleanup on easement between our property and the home to the east of us Outcropping stones at driveway culvert and steppers at gate, hose bib and mailbox Over 15 trees and shrubs Redistribution of salvageable flowers, grasses and one tree Planting bed preparation and mulching over the entire home and fence perimeter Seeding of hard hit lawn areas from the past summer drought

Over all my experience with Wingren has been great, from start to finish. Quality of work was excellent. Their pricing to install the holiday lights were competitive yet very reasonable. Very responsive to what we were looking to spend and what we were looking for with regard to holiday decor. Very professional. They will be coming out soon to remove all the decorations. We have already recommended them to several neighbors for next year.
Description of Work: Wingren Landscape has performed several services including holiday decorating this past Christmas. Larry was very prompt with coming out to our house, providing us a quote and finishing the project in time for our Thanksgiving family party. The quality of their work was perfect. The artificial garland was commercial quality (thick heavy needles) as was their LED lights. You could tell that the products were not purchased at a big box store. Wingren arrived 15 minutes before the job was to start so that they could go over any questions or changes I wanted to make. Great from the start to finish. The house looked stunning during the holiday season with the LED lights, wreaths and garland. We had lots of great compliments throughout the season. Wingren has also done our landscaping as well as landscape lighting and their work is "A" quality all the way around. The landscape lighting they installed last summer is commercial quality. Nothing you would find at Home Depot or Lowes. Nice product and quality work.

I think that they do a great job. My wife knows the owner very well. She was so impressed with the work that they did for her clients. We use the snow removal in the winter and for lawn care in spring and summer. They are very thorough and very professional in what they do. They came up with some great ideas when we asked them to do some landscape designs. They are not the least expensive guys, but we are satisfied with their service.

We got their name from a neighbor. They charges were on a monthly basis. They were good, but they were too expensive. It is like a high end company. They did a good job, but we can get the same thing for less money. So we switched landscapers. They performed very well, but it was a bit too much. I would use them again in the future if they were less expensive.
Description of Work: Wingren Landscape did snow removal sometime in February. They did general landscaping all of last year that included grafting, edging, aeration, all the landscaping things and they cut a couple of trees.
