I contacted Benjamin Lawn & Landscape on Friday morning by phone to see if they could come to my property and remove dead leafs and branches from my backyard. Their answering service took my information and Ben returned my call promptly. Service was scheduled for Monday. The crew arrived at my property in the early afternoon and they quickly cleaned the property. I'm very happy to have the lawn service completed and will look to return to Benjamin Lawn & Landscape for additional future projects.

The work they actually did for us turned out fine, and I have no complaints. This included gutter cleaning, the removal and replacement of a dead tree, and cleaning up our landscaping beds. However, I also wanted them to provide a new design for the beds and then plant whatever was decided on, but for some reason was unable to get that work done. The first conversation took place in early March, and someone came to our house to discuss. I was promised a design proposal after that, but never received one. A second person came to the house in early May, and once again promised a design proposal. It's now early June and not only do I still not have a design proposal, I did not receive a response to my last email. At this point, I will be seeking a new company to handle our various lawn and landscaping projects.
Description of Work: They provided a variety of services, including gutter cleaning, removal & replacement of a dead tree, and clean up of our landscaping beds. I also wanted their help with designing the landscaping plan for 2 spaces and planting, but never received the information needed.

They were highly professional in their work. The office answered all my questions and were always responsive. They fit me into their schedule as promised, even with weather delays. Finally, they came out on Saturday to finish the gutter cleaning. I am very satisfied with their services, and will be using them for lawn mowing and snow removal.
Description of Work: They clean out my backyard which was overgrown, filled in large holes in the front and back, trimmed the yews, and cleaned out the suckers from around the crab apple tree in front. They also clean out the gutters.

Benjamin Lawn does excellent work but I experienced a significant price increase on estimate for my fifth leaf removal service. I am not sure if that came from Benjamin himself or a employee who was tired of all the leaves in my yard. Recommended service provider just be upfront with what you want when requesting a bid.
Description of Work: They mowed bi monthly and I used their services four times for leaf removal. I have four oaks and other tree's on property.

Response from Benjamin Lawn & Landscape
Throughout the summer, while we were performing his regular mowing service, it was typical for the mowing crew to haul off 2 large armfuls of sticks and twigs every mow (for which he was not charged). This was due to his "under-cared-for," older oak trees constantly dropping sticks year round. When mowing season ended and leaf removal season began (November 1), we were very upfront with our customers that there is no set pricing for this service and that it is billed at an hourly rate due to the unpredictability of conditions from day to day (Pricing depends on how long it takes and the amount of leaves we have to haul away). Twig or acorn removal is an additional service we provide and we let our customers know that both of these services are substantially more labor intensive than the standard leaf removal detail. Sticks are picked up by hand and acorns are raked, then scooped into trash cans, and carried to our trucks to be disposed of off site. For the 2 January services that [member name removed] is questioning: He initially asked us to only provide a leaf removal service. Then he added some extra's to it: removal of brush and debris in the backyard corner; leaves in neighbor's front yard; and finally twig detail (he had a new dog that was chewing them up). We had over 6 10'x12' tarps of twigs alone for that service. He said the yard looks great and could we please come back to remove the acorns from his yard and beds (they were making his new dog sick). We came out one week later and removed as many of the acorns as we possibly could. They were 3" think in some areas of the beds. We had 4 tarp-fulls of acorns for that one service, many of which came from the beds which are even more time consuming to remove than the grassy areas. When [member name removed]complained about the amount of his invoice for January (monthly invoicing is our customary practice and was used to the entire time he did business with us) I told him I would look into it. He was charged for exactly the amount of time that our men were out on his property doing work, however, for the 1st service he complained about, I thought we may have done more "detailed" work than he had expected, so I credited him $100 on that service bringing that price into alignment with the other "leaf-only removal" services he had the previous month. For the second service that he complained of the price, I issued a $50 credit to assuage any hard feelings with the intent we wanted to keep him as a customer. He said that he thought that was fair. He then asked if he could pay his bill in 2 installments. We gladly agreed to do this as we wanted to work with him and keep a satisfied customer. As far as his complaint regarding an estimate, again the yard had so many sticks that at least $100 of it is for hauling and disposal of the sticks alone. I believe we did great work for him and responded to any questions or concerns he had in a very timely matter. I believe we went above and beyond with this customer as we would with any of our customers.

We have also used them for landscape design. They did a simple landscape design for our border and our back yard- we had no flowers and shrubs that were in good conditions. So they came out and Heather did a simple design - a perennial for me, to help me start with perennial gardening. She did a good job. They are doing a great - our lawn was horrible and they have done a great job getting it started back on the right track. They are terrific- they are very personable, do a good job and their price is very fair compared to others.
Description of Work: We use Benjamin Lawn & Landscape. We have them do seasonal lawn spraying for us to keep our lawn in shape and weed free.

Afterwards, I discovered I had no water pressure in my outside spigot. Therefore, I could not water my lawn. They stated once I got things fixed with my water pressure, they will re-seed for free. They are just a very moral, ethical company. They always try their best and do their best. If anything goes wrong, which is very seldom, they always make up for it. Benjamin is a nice guy, and his wife Laura handles the business end of things. They are just wonderful. This is a very ethical, trustworthy company.Their rates are very reasonable and they are well worth the money.

I use them mostly for lawn mowing for my lot size, they charge 37.50. A good rate, and after some initial hiccups with the scheduling they have been very punctual with care. They also offer a variety of other services. One of which is leave raking. The price for that was 80 dollars. They did a decent job with that, but did miss some areas around the property. I plan to continue using them once spring returns.

We scheduled a date range to do mowing, but it didn't get done. Then scheduled a date range to weed/feed but it didn't get done. He did reply to my emails though and was nice. Guess it was just a bad time for a new client.

Benjamin and his crew do a decent job but they don't always come when I would like for them to come. I like to have my lawn mowed through the beginning of November to help mulch the leaves in. Benjamin's service stops mowing when the grass starts to go dormant and this is long before all the leaves are down. I asked him to do some grass planting last fall and it isn't done yet. (April) I am hoping it gets done soon so that I have a stand of grass before the really hot weather sets in. I would switch providers for my lawn maintenance but one of my neighbors had a different service doing her lawn and had pretty much the same level of service.

Benjamin was very nice and seemed knowledgeable, but he was too busy to do the job properly. I would have preferred if he had just told me that he was too busy. He was very prompt coming to the house, looking over the job and giving me a bid. As a result, I purchased a couple of services that I would not have purchased, namely the aeration and application of lime. He was not there to do the job when he said he would be, but did an extra mowing and applied some additional top soil to compensate. When he followed up, he only looked at the front yard and not the back (which was in worse shape) and did not look at the back until a follow-up phone call from me. I got very little additional grass and my back yard looks worse than before the work was done. He was more expensive than other services I have used (including much larger reputable firms that I have used for a few years). I was hoping to find a small business close to my home's location that would give me more personal service, but will keep looking.

Response from Benjamin Lawn & Landscape
There are some important details left out of this review. The front yard looks fantastic and I did the same exact thing to the back but there are a couple of key differences. The back yard is teeny tiny and is home to two large golden retrievers. Additionally, there is full shade from an 80' oak tree. As I always explain, ALL grass is considered full sun. Some types of grass will tolerate shade better than others, but none like it and all will struggle. So, when you combine full shade with two huge dogs in a very confined space, you will have mud. I did the best thing possible, which was add rich compost and aerate it in. That will give the new grass the best chance possible, but that is a very tough situation. That said, I suspect she'll be surprised this spring at how much grass actually comes up in her back yard.

I just think that they were too automated because even though it is evident that the lawn doesn't need mowing, they will still come and continue mowing. So I stopped using them because I kind of complained about that and I was told that it was up to me to call them and tell them not to come. I just thought that maybe that is true or maybe not but at the same time anybody can see if the lawn needs mowing or not. So I had issues with that.

Response from Benjamin Lawn & Landscape
Sorry [member name removed], It's very hard to read peoples mind about weather or not their lawn needs mowing. Here's an example: We are scheduled to mow a lawn on Fridays. We drive by and decide to skip because the lawn didn't really need it. It turns out that while the lawn didn't need to be mowed, they were counting on us to blow off the back patio and spruce the place up because they are having a big party that night. I get an angry phone call, or a negative review on Angie's list, because we are now "unreliable." Also, as you can probably guess, gas and payroll are two of my biggest overhead expenses. As a courtesy to us, I ask that if you don't want your lawn mowed, please let me know so we don't waste the time and money coming to "check." A simple email, text message, or call will do the trick. We are super flexible with the scheduling of our mowing. One thing that people really like about my company is that our mowing customers are welcome to be on any mowing schedule they want: 7-day, 10-day, 14-day, 21-day, first Monday of the month, 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month, whatever. Or you can even contact me as needed and for one-time mowings. But if you're scheduled for a mow, we will mow. I believe this to be fair but welcome any new ideas or suggestions.

They were contacted via email and responded within 24 hours that they could perform the mowing services as discussed last year. They did what they said, when they said and we were happy with the results and the prompt service. Will continue using as needed.

I switched to Benjamin Lawn and Landscape after a less than satisfactory experience with a budget lawn mowing service. Benjamin is more expensive than the other service, but the quality of work performed has been excellent. I even asked Benjamin if his crew could clean accumulated leaves out of a basement stairwell on their first trip to my house--a task that I have done myself on many occasions so I know that it is not pleasant. They did a nice job of clearing out the stairwell and only charged me $15 for it. I have a set schedule for lawn mowing of every 10 days, which has worked out well. They got behind a week or so ago and Benjamin emailed me to let me know they would be there to mow the next day--which they were. So far, I have no complaints about this service.
