Josh and his employees did a great job. Josh is very professional and shows up when he says he will, communicates all the details and/or changes of the job. I would not hesitate to hire Harris and Company Landscaping again. The patio, stone walls and walkways are beautiful.

Thanks for the kind words! We had a great time working with you last summer. You were easy to communicate with, and understanding of weather related delays. We would come back for another project in a heartbeat and we hope you and your family make some great memories in your new backyard!

Josh had Bob and his team come out and redo the cobblestones along the driveway and rework the front walkway. They worked **** ** both jobs and did an amazing job. Bob did the cobblestones so meticulously and he was so easy to work with. A member of his team did the walk and it was beautifully done. A few weeks after they finished it rained heavily and the water did not drain towards the house. All in all a satisfying, impressive job. That is why we are looking forward to what they can do to rework our brook.
Description of Work: We had a new asphalt driveway done and the driveway was lined with old cobblestones. We also had a front brick walkway that pitched heavy rain right toward our basement.

Their lawn mowing was fine. They doubled our charge for our spring cleanup because we didn't do a fall cleanup. They do warn you they will do so ahead of time, however, we felt it didn't take them twice as long to do the cleanup. Also, they didn't completely follow our instructions and never really completed the cleanup, leaving weeds where they should not be. They seemed to have difficulty differentiating between weeds and real plants sometimes. After using them for a couple years, we grew tired of having to call them back to fix what they were doing and overpaying. We also would speak with them and ask them to do things and then they would later claim we never asked them to do so or they would misinterpret instructions. Their shrub trimming was just ok. When we hired a new service we saw a difference in the shrub trimming skill. The new service we hired after Harris and Co was also cheaper and more punctual. Our experience with Harris and Co was so so. When we asked them whether they could come only in the afternoon for certain services, we were told they can't accommodate schedules. They are probably fine for lawn mowing.

Response from Harris and Company Landscaping
Hello [Member Name Removed], I am sorry you did not have a great experience with us. Your recent experience was mostly with our new operations manager who was just getting the hang of it all when things went a little [Member Information Removed]. I always got great compliments from your husband, and we never even met you till that day during the spring cleanup where you told my men to leave the property because 8am was "too early". Local ordinances dictate that 7am Mon-Fri is allowed, and we follow that to a T because of our very tight schedule. We are however, more of a landscape construction company, lawncare being our smallest work we do, and although we try to be competitive in price, its hard for a larger company like myself to keep cuthroat pricing when we have such high overhead from our larger equipment. We never heard from you regarding coming back to fix anything, except during one cleanup my guys put the leaf debris in the wrong spot, which was corrected not long after you asked us to. You also added last minute work on several occasions causing us to work more hours, hence we had to charge more for that work. It may have not taken a ton longer, but I had to add more men to the job, and we must bill for each man hour. You never coming outside when we worked there, you probably did not notice the crew size double after you requested more work done. It was a pleasure working for you for the few years you had us, and I'm sorry it didn't work out. With better communication, I would be happy to work for you again if you needed us.

Harris & Company Landscaping were extremely punctual and dedicated to doing a wonderful job!! Josh Harris, the owner, worked with us very patiently and professionally as we planned with him what to do in our backyard to make the area more livable and attractive. He did a great job and his workers had a great work ethic and did a wonderful job also!! I highly recommend Harris & Company for any landscaping job that you might need! :)

After spending well over $20,000 on Harris and Company, after having a contract from Harris and Company to provide lawn care and yard services for this summer, and after Harris and Company having started to provide lawn care and yard services, Joshua Harris wrote an email to me, without any prior discussion - not even a telephone call, that said Harris and Company would no longer provide lawn care and yard services for my home. Joshua Harris did not even recommend an alternate provider. The only reason given was that Milford would no longer be in its service area. Being "dropped" in the middle of the summer certainly demonstrates an overwhelming lack of loyalty that Josh Harris has for his customers. Being "dropped" presented a substantial problem for me to locate another service provider.. If you choose to go with Harris and Company, just know that Josh Harris feels free to quit you job midstream, if he so decides. I would certainly not recommend Harris and Company, in spite of any other positive review. Harold S. Rhodes
Description of Work: Harris and Company (Joshua Harris) provided extensive lawn care and yard services at our home. I have spent over #20,000 on Harris and Company.

Response from Harris and Company Landscaping
Dear Mr [Member Name Removed] Thank you for being a great customer over the past few years. We appreciate the business you gave us and it was nice to maintain the lawn that we installed for you. We have had to change directions in the company. We are concentrating on mostly landscape construction (patios, walkways, walls, lawn installs, landscape lighting). Although we are still doing lawncare for many clients, we have no lawncare clients in your town. We are sticking to only neighborhoods that we have several accounts in to stay as efficient as possible. We gave you over a week to find someone new. I'm sorry, but it is not our responsibility to find a replacement landscaper for our clients. We do not recommend other company's because we do not want to refer them, then find out they did poor work. I ran the numbers, and it just wasn't cost effective. You had told me on the phone that if I did not find a replacement for you, that you would write a negative review on Angies List and several other sites. I cannot be bullied into servicing a client in that situation. There are dozens of companies in the area, and I felt confident you would find someone quickly. In the end, I must do whats right for my business. To grow, to satisfy clients as best as possible, and to make an honest living. I'm sorry you feel this way, and I thank you for your past years business.

Fantastic experience. From concept, working with us to create a design that fit our budget and desires through to the finish. It was incredible to see the complete transformation happen so quickly. Work was completed on schedule and within the agreed budget.

Description of Work: I had part of a black top driveway taken out and a permeable paver patio put in with a curved sitting wall and large fire pit. Planting and landscaping was also done. This process also required the temporary removal of section of vinyl fencing and gate door. | |Josh and his crew were very professional. Very clean and neat everyday they were here. | |The quality of work on the patio is excellent! Another contractor I had here for other work agreed! | |If I had any criticism, it would be that at the end I thought the planting and mulching was a little rushed and hurried. Also, as with any project make sure you're thorough when planning and getting estimates. Could be my bad, but I did not realize that end caps for sitting wall were not in the initial estimate. | Overall a definite "A" job!

I removed all my gutters and consulted them on how best to deal with run-off from the roof. They dug out near the foundation and put in fabric covered in stone to deal with the run-off. They also installed good topsoil for future plantings. They showed up on time, did an excellent job for a fair price. I am quite pleased. I've seen some of their other work (walkways, fire pit, etc.) and may have them do a new walkway in the Spring. Highly recommended.

I met Josh Harris at the Home Show at Patriot Place during the winter of 2014. At the show I had also met a few other Landscaping Contractors. While Josh was not the cheapest that we had come by to take a look, he was far and away the best. From the moment he came to our backyard, his design went into full effect. The other contractors quoted exactly what I said, while Josh expanded on the ideas and really had a passion. I am by no means a designer, so the ideas were very well received. Josh and crew came onsite when they advised, and were very tidy when cleaning up the job site. I even had neighbors comment on the tidiness of the project. The finished product came out exactly how Josh had spoke to us, and there were no hidden costs. I would recommend Josh Harris to anyone looking to complete a Patio project.
Description of Work: Constructed a patio of approximately 500 sq feet along with a retaining wall for a fire pit.

Over the years Josh and his team of professionals have done many projects for us. They designed and built our lakeside fire pit area and surrounded us with a beautiful but very natural looking landscape. Another project they did was reworking our back patio area. It also is a work of art. Their eye for detail is very nice. I have a beautiful herb garden that one of his crew suggested in a space I would have never though to put a garden. It is my favorite spot to relax and work with my herbs and vegetables. Josh and his crew also do our yearly maintenance, pruning trees etc. They are our go to guys.

Hello [removed member name], It was a pleasure doing work at your home.
