Description of Work: I requested a quote for a small job and sent over a plan and photos of the area where I wanted to have the work done. I got the impression on the phone that the representative was not in agreement with the plan I provided and had that confirmed when I received the quote. It was so different from what I requested and wanted I thought it had been sent to me in error. I don't mind a vendor making suggestions but to receive something that doesn't resemble what I asked for wastes my time and the vendors as well. I wound up doing the work myself for $500 in material costs and saved myself a couple thousand. I'm not sure what happened but it all worked out in the end for me.

Description of Work: A very nice young fellow came and met with me exactly when he said he would. He quickly emailed me a list of references and a list of suggested materials. But without a plan as to where the materials would go, it was useless to me. That would have cost an additional $500. I was disappointed. I understand that people sometimes take their plans and then do the work themselves. I'm not sure how to get around that problem. I obviously can't do that.

Response from Ross & Jack's Landscaping Inc
Hello [Removed member name], I'm sorry if there was some miscommunication, but the only time we charge for plans is in the event that people don't hire us to install the plan ourselves. The designs take time and effort to put together, so we want to protect our intellectual property so that they are not shopped around to other companies who will undercut our bid and use our design as the blueprint. However, we are more interested in working with customers and installing the design ourselves, so it is our policy to reimburse and design fee 100% if we are hired to install the project. I'm sorry that you didn't see the value in having a well thought out landscape design, but we feel it is only fair that we are compensated for the work it takes to put together the design. Therefore, either the design is paid for and it is your property to do with as you wish, or we are hired to install the project in which case that fee would be taken off of the project or reimbursed to you. Once again, sorry for any confusion and I wish you luck with your project as you move forward. Best Regards, Michael Spatola General Manager

Description of Work: They cleaned up my entire yard. Pulled weeds, trimmed trees, edged the gardens, removed a dead tree, put down mulch, and cut the grass/edged the sidewalk and driveway. The crew was here at the time promised. I was not able to be home during the work, so once they started I left for the day. When I got home the yard looked amazing. They did everything promised and left my property in a condition that that was perfect. I would use Ross and Jack's again without question.

Great communication
Description of Work: We needed some sod, overseeding, and raking. We contacted Ross & Jacks and they were very professional. We worked with Mike who had some great ideas. I felt that they would have done a great job, but they were a little expensive.

Response from Ross & Jack's Landscaping Inc
I am very sorry you were not happy with our company. As you stated, we were professional and provide an estimate in a timely fashion. This is the most important thing we try to achieve. Every company has different price structure and we are sorry this project wasn't meant to be. We never ended up doing any work for you. We did appreciate the opportunity and will try to do a better job next time.

Not the best experience.
Description of Work: Rarely has any service company I've ever contracted be so condescending. First when Mark arrived he was surprised that I had a nice house. What? He thought I lived in "another suburb". Okay. He told me what was wrong with my landscape, then said it wasn't bad, and went on to talk about "adding value" ad naseum. He just said to give him $ 2-4,000. and he'd make it look good. I've had landscapers work on my property before and they've taken pictures and submitted a real plan. Giving someone 2-4 thousand dollars is not how I do business. I can't talk to their actual performance. He has "crews" with routes, and it sounds like they are great from the above reviews. But they will not get my business.

Response from Ross & Jack's Landscaping Inc
Good morning Member, Sorry for the misunderstanding and I'm sorry if I portrayed a condescending attitude. I didn't mean to do that, and I certainly didn't mean to offend you. You have a lovely home and if you would like too give me a second chance, I would be be more than happy to give you a detailed estimate. I was trying to qualify your primary areas of concern, scope of project and budget so I could have more direction in preparing a detailed proposal. I guess I had a bad day and didn't do that well. I should have given you more opportunity to express your thoughts, asked better questions, and been a better listener. Sometimes defining the budget or scope of a project can be the most difficult aspect of any given task. If given another chance I'm sure you would find our crews and work to be excellent. We all have bad days and I'm sorry your first experience with me had to be one of them. Thank you for the opportunity and I hope one day we can work together.
