From start to finish the experience was fantastic. Very knowledgeable team that does great work with superior attention to details. The job was completed on time, as promised with great results-- the seeded lawn is now up and green and doing great. I give them my highest recommendation.
Description of Work: Remove old turf, tilled, amended and seeded my small lawn. They also put pine mulch in or beds and edged the borders.

I called these guys for a quote and left a voicemail. They got back to me the same afternoon. They were polished on the phone and arranged a time to survey my property. They were willing to do this any day including weekends. I met them on a Saturday morning at 7:30 a.m., at my request. The father/daughter team arrived promptly and walked the property with me. They were knowledgeable and professional and provided a written, detailed quote on the spot. I hired them almost immediately and they began work a week later. The first service was thorough and outstanding. My mulch beds have never looked better. Overall, the experience thus far has been outstanding, far superior to a typical lawn service. I have hired them for my weekly mowing and general yard maintenance. My wife plans to have them choose and plant some flowers.
Description of Work: Spring cleanup, mulching, core aeration, seeding, fertilizing.

We set up an appointment with Mastroianni to come and give us an estimate for a Spring clean up at the end of March. They called us back first and came over within a day or so. They took a walk around the yard, gave us an estimate, and were back in two weeks to do the work. It took 3 guys about 2 hours to do everything. They did amazing work. We had a number of flowerbeds fully obscured by Fall and Winter yard debris. They blew and raked everything out and took away all these old bush clippings from last summer. They made the entire yard beautiful within a matter of hours. They actually found more flowerbeds than we even knew we had. This was a new house so we hadn't lived in it last spring and did not know what to expect to find. Shortly after they left, it rained, then everything started blooming out of the ground, it has been wonderful.
Description of Work: Full Spring Cleanup including blowing and raking all leaves, branches, and yard debris for a very over-landscaped, overgrown, hilly, hard-to-get-to yard. This followed a season of not having a Fall cleanup so there was a ton of leaves. Approximate size of lot 6000 s.f.

They did fine. I am still using them. They seem like a reasonable price. They came out and looked at the yard and what to do. They did a good job of putting in mulch. It looks a lot nicer than when I try to do it myself. They do a nice job and they are not expensive. It is a good value for the money. They are also very responsive. If you need to talk they are easy to reach. They kept up with the leaves during the fall. They were out all the time.
Description of Work: They come and take care of the lawn. I started using them half way through last summer. They do lawn mowing, mulching and edging around areas. They get rid of weeds around side walks. They put down lime and fertilizer and do seeding in the fall. It is basic lawn care. If I need new plants they will put those in. They are taking care of the whole outside of my house. They came out and cleaned up leaves during the fall. The price listed is for lawn mowing per week.

Sandra returned my call before any other company did and she was at my door at 8:00 a.m. with Santo the next day (on a Sunday--the only day I was available) to look at my property and to give an estimate on the job. They sent a written proposal and came the first day after several days of rain to get the job done--right on time, before 7:30 in the morning. They were very neat and it looks like they did a good job. Our fingers are crossed that our very difficult lawn will finally start to show some life later this fall or early spring! We did hear back from one other company that could aerate the lawn for a cheaper price a few days after we heard from Sanda, but the fast and professional response and past ratings on Angie's List made us feel that Mastroianni was the way to go.
Description of Work: We had approx 600 square feet of packed lawn aerated, fertilized and seeded.

They were unable to start on the scheduled day due to rain, but they were good about rescheduling soon. On the day of the work, they seemed to be in a hurry to get it done and were avoiding putting grass in nooks and corners where it was hard for their plow to go. They also did not seed between stone steps that cut across the lawn and also tried to avoid seeding near a tree, generally claiming that the grass won't grow in the shade or the old grass will come back in those locations. I was surprised at this, since I thought once they had agreed on the work, they don't lose much by doing a quality job of it. Maybe they had another job right after they had to rush to. Anyway, they did say they will come back and fix it if the "old grass does not come back". The price was agreed upon initially and there were no surprises there. To their credit the grass did grow well for the most part, but in some small and very visible patches it did not grow at all. (It grew well in all the small corner spots and shady spots where they said it would not grow, but it remained bald between the stone steps where they said it would grow. The other bare patches were in broader parts of the lawn which they had seeded). We called about the bare patches. They came to have a look and blamed us for not taking care of the lawn, first saying it was because we had not watered it (even though I had religiously done so) and then because we had not cut it (I had cut it 2 weeks before they came) and finally saying it was because we had not taken care of the weeds (even though there were no weeds on the bald spots -- but there were weeds elsewhere, along the edges). They wanted us to pay them to regularly take care of the lawn. When I said I was not interested, they left abruptly, saying we were insulting them by suggesting the bare spots were their fault. I went with this company because of their reputation in Angies List even though others were willing to do the same job for nearly half the cost. I think the extra price they charged is not worth the job they did.
Description of Work: Old lawn was plowed and new lawn was put in (seeded). Lawn was also expanded.

Response from Post Road Landscape Inc.
In response to the evaluation that the client wrote, we want to respond in an assertive and accurate manner as we take pride in our work as evidenced by the number of satisfied customers that we had in the past. The former client is incorrect with a number of his charges and this response is an effort to correct his version. He had incorrectly installed sod prior our work with him. His yard has been negleted for a while. At the first meeting, we spend 45 minutes diagnosing the problems and then suggesting treatment in order to have a healthy lawn. He wanted to have a new lawn and wanted to grow grass on top of the boulders. We told him that the grass could not grow there. We installed a new lawn for him on April 9, 2010. It was never discussed or agreed upon that snow plowing would be included in our work with the client. We explained to him several times as to how, when and the frequency of how to water the lawn. We also gave him instructions as to cut the grass based on the fact that the client wished to take care of the lawn himself. It was agreed that the owner would cut the grass weekly. The client has admitted to not cutting his lawn weekly as directed. He called us several times to ask for advice which we gave gladly to him. After 2 months of repeated calls to us, we suggested that it will be helpful to have a meeting in order to inspect the grass. Once we arrived, the yard was a mess. He did not cut the lawn, the grass was too high, he didn't trim the edges, and there were a few weeds present. There were a few small patches of lawn that was under grown that we offered to fix. The client presented as being overwhelmed with the amount of responsability involved in treating his own lawn. The client wanted us to treat the weeds for free. We explained that weed treatment was not part of the agreement and that it was a different job, we told him that we were willing to treat the weeds for him but there would be a separate charge. During the same visit after spending one hour trying to satisfy the customer, it was apparent that we could not agree on a resolution. The client's wife was disrespectful and distracting due to her laughing and making faces at us. We told her that this was inappropiate and not appreciated but the behavior continued and we decided to leave the property at that point. We are not responsible if clients do not follow our advice and instructions. We continue to strive to improve our services and continue to meet the needs of all of our clients. We want to thank all of our past customers who have appreciated our efforts. We take pride in our work ethic, our integrity and the quality of our services.

Sandra returned my call quickly, and came out to give me an estimate the next morning. Per my request, Sandra gave us estimates for a number of yard-related items (gutter cleaning, mulching, bush trimming, etc), but we chose to just have the leaves removed and the lawn mowed. I mailed Sandra the down payment and proposal acceptance, and emailed her the same day to ask about scheduling the work. Sandra sent her crew out the same day to clean our yard! When we got home, the front and back were spotless, our garden beds were trimmed down, and our lawn looked amazing. We'd be happy to work with Sandra again.

Sandra called back immediately in response to my email through the List. She came out a few days later to give an estimate and walked the property all around the house and asked specific questions about what we wanted done. She explained the way that her father and his crew would do certain parts of the job and was amenable to doing the work in the way we wanted it done. For example, I wanted the bushes hand-pruned and not cut with an electric cutter. She was very agreeable and friendly. A little over a week later, Santo and his crew came to do the work, and Sandra was there at the beginning to explain the work to them. The work took a few hours and it was done very well. Leaves were gone, everything was trimmed neatly and all debris was cleaned up completely. I will definitely use this company again!

Description of Work: I had become disenchanted with the lawn service performed by a firm I'd been using for about two years. I called and the Mastroiannis came to look over the yard and discuss the cost of weekly service. The firm has been doing the yard for three weeks.

Calls were returned. Sandra was flexible with scheduling and showed up when she said she would. Workers who came on clean-up day were very cooperative and worked quickly. We were unable to get anyone else to come out and give an estimate so, I have a feeling that perhaps they overcharged a bit but, I can't say that for certain because I don't have anything to compare it against. Also, they removed a few plants which should have been left in but, that wasn't terribly surprising given the mess that the gardens were in, and we therefore sort of expected it so, we don't really fault them much for it. If we are unable to do the replanting in the spring ourselves, we are probably going to call this company again to come out and help us with it.
Description of Work: We let out lawn and gardens get incredibly overgrown over the spring and summer because we just didn't have time to maintain them. We hired this landscaper to clean everything up -- clean up overgrown lawn and garden, trim bushes and shrubs, split some overgrown bushes and shrubs, remove invasive vines from trellis for later replacement, remove all waste.

I contacted five companies from Angie's List. Four responded and I received quotes from 3. This company sent a father and daughter team to review the project requirements and to present their company to me. They not only provided everything I wanted on the project and more, but they let me know about their insurance, billing, service, etc. without being prompted. They started the work one week later and completed it in half the time I anticipated. The new lawn is three weeks old and is completely green - excellent results.

They were terrific. They came in a couple of days to view the property (daughter and father) and provided estimate immediately. I hired them on the sport. They promised to do the work the following week but they actually came 3 days later (sooner than expected) and did a terrific job! Place looks so much better and I'm happy with the results. They will now mow the lawn regularly and I will use them to make enhancements to the property. Great experience and highly recommended.
