Provider promised that grass would be cut by the end of the week I contacted him,with spring cleanup to follow the following week. The grass was not cut as promised, and there was no call from the provider with an explanation. I attempted to reach the provider several times which all went to voice mail with no return phone call. I ended up having to hire another company, and advising this provider of this via voice mail. This was a pity, as their work in the past was good.
Description of Work: Contacted provider for weekly mowing & spring cleanup. I had used this provider in the past, and they used to do good work.

They should send out bills regularly. They do good work but can be hard to get a hold of.

Great, Jose and his company do a great job. They are here every week and get the job done and it looks very good. It's so good that other neighbors started to change the way they kept for their lawn. The hedge/bush trimming was done the right way. The other thing that was key for us is our bushes had winter burn. We had multiple landscapers come out to quote in the spring and everyone but them said to replace them. Jose mentioned to just leave them alone "don't touch them, don't trim them..." we decided to do that and sure enough by late summer they were fine. So huge plus for honesty and knowing the right thing to do. We've also had them fertilize and treat the yard for weeds. All the services they offer we would recommend. It's a small business with a passion to do a good job.
Description of Work: They come every Friday to service the yard. They do a great job and it's not just a mowing they do the entire clean up and it looks professional. They arrive with professional trucks and a crew. It's something I would recommend and the price is reasonable and very good for the quality of work they provide. We've had our bushes trimmed and driveway seal coated through them as well. They do a great job and they are very knowledgeable.

They showed up when they said they would. They had three or four people working on our lawn at once. The whole yard was mowed and trimmed in about 15 minutes! They were prompt, friendly and effecient. The yard looks great. I will definately use them again.

Bush removal and trimming was done to my expectations. The edger bricks were also well done. I had requested 3 inches of mulch put down but initially only got 1 inch. When they came out to collect payment and asked for additional mulch be put down and they came out the next day to do that. Overall I was pleased with the work and would use them again.
Description of Work: Removed several shrubs, trimmed several bushes, removed 10' by 20' area of grass and put mulch down and redid some edger bricks

They do good work, but occasionally you have to remind them to cut the grass a little shorter and to do a complete job on the trimming. Once in awhile they will miss a section.
Description of Work: Cut grass and trimmed all edges. In springtime do a clean up of winters mess.

He did a great job. He responded to my email right away and was at my house the next day with mulch samples and to give me an estimate. I hired him that day. He went out of his way to make me happy and to ensure the job was to my satisfaction. I will definitely be using his services next year. Several neighbors have commented on how nice it looks. I am very pleased with the results.
Description of Work: He trenched, weeded, mulched, trimmed a couple trees and removed a dead tree.

Jose is very nice. I had used his service for a few years . Started becoming dissatisfied when lots of grubs were brought into my lawn. His crew doesn't care about what they damage when doing their work. Weed whacking into downspouts & banging into siding and damaging them. My wood fence posts were weed whacked so many times over the years from them that they actually had deep grooves . Took the fence down last year.
Description of Work: Mowed lawn weekly for several years.

They were quickly responsive. They came out the next day to give an estimate. He worked with me on the price.He committed to getting the job done within a week right before the July 4th holiday in the terrible heat.They actually came earlier than anticipated which was great! They finished the job within two days with a crew which was great!The job was well done! I asked for a few more trimmings on my large tree and they accommodated me with no issue.We have a lot of landscaping. Their quote was the best, they were reliable, professional, friendly, and their work was done well!I would certainly use them again.

Contacted this company and received a return call within an hour. The man who did not know of where McHenry was located and he asked how far from Cary? I stated we were 12 miles Northeast of Crystal Lake. (Mapquest says 14 miles total). He said that was too far as most of his business was south and west like Lake in the Hills. I wasn't impressed with the communication or his grasp of the region.

It took us time to walk through design options and he didn?t try to force anything on us. He had some suggestions for things like colors of brick and he did a very good job. He took his time and you can tell that it is quality work. We were impressed so we plan on using him again in the future.
