LEONE CO

unknown

This is the second major job that they have done for us. Previously they did a much larger job on our front entrance. This included relocating the driveway, building a large area with pavers, adding lighting, and new turf. They are probably the best contractors we have ever worked with. They work well with stone, as all of the pieces for our patio were hand cut on site, and also with landscape. Frank Leone in particular has a great eye for design They are popular so sometimes we had to wait for them to start, bu t once they did, they worked very hard to make us happy. They are worth the wait.

They did a very good job and cleaned up well afterwards. Mr Leone is very fussy while supervising the job to make sure everythjng is done just right.

They were absolutely immaculate. My yard would always look good. They would rake the beds and everything. It just looked wonderful. I asked them to change the day that they came because my daughter was getting married. They did it on a Monday and my daughter was getting married on a Sunday. We had people coming up and I asked them if they could switch me to Thursday for that one week and they did, but I got a different crew that I've never seen before. They were like an animal and were just awful. I kept asking if they could just put me back on Monday with my Monday crew and they said no and didn't want to do that. I got them because they were doing the person across the street and old Mr. Leone kept coming over to my yard. He was like in his 80's and would come over and ask if he could do my yard, but his sons were actually running the business. They didn't care that good old dad who founded the company wanted to take care of this gorgeous yard. They just wanted everything efficient and for some reason they were not willing to move me back to Monday. I should've asked them to come out and do a touch-up that I'll pay extra for. I had a good relationship with the crew and everything. The guys had such pride in cleaning my yard and it was amazing. We kept on as much as we could with them and then last winter we had a lot of snow. I have this specimen tree at the bottom of the driveway and my regular crew knew not to push the snow against this tree. We have a big frontage and they would pull it out in the street and just push it someplace else on my property. It's a 70 year old mugo pine and it looked liked one of these Japanese type of trained tree. You can buy them at the hardware store in a little bucket for $15. Its 12 ft. tall and 15 ft. wide and it has beautiful branches that curl around and everything. This one crew the guy came and he pushed it against the tree and he cracked several limbs on the tree. We called and said this happened and they asked did we want an arborist to come out or did I have one. I told them I had one and the guy came. He put the screws in, bolted it together, and wired it so the tree would have a chance to heal itself. They told us that we should just send them the bill and they would deduct it from our fees. All of a sudden in March right before spring cleanup time we get a letter from them saying they didn't want to do our yard anymore. I was heartbroken because I really liked the old man, but they wouldn't change my date and I was very frustrated with that. We decided that since they don't want us we'll find somebody new and through Angie's List we did find some new people. For three or four years they sent the same crew out who did the yard across the street and those guys were so wonderful. I had a relationship with the lead person and it was a really nice thing. They're very expensive and you get what you pay for. I also knew when they were coming. When they were good they were very good and when they're bad they're terrible.

I found them when they were doing work for my neighbor. They did what we asked them to do. We spent $200. It was the final cleanup. The normal charge for the cleaning in the area is between $400 and $500. We were the last ones to do the final cleanup. They were okay. They came pretty quickly to do an estimate. They did the work in a fairly reasonable amount of time. I don't remember anything negative. Overall it was a positive experience. I might use this company in the future. We were considering several companies for this year’s landscaping but we decided to do it on our own. We might call them for the fall cleanup.

My neighbor recommended them and I've been using them for about 1 1/2 years. They are a good company. I pay them monthly. They do a very nice job; they are actually more than what I need. I am comfortable with them. I am considering doing some re-landscaping and I may use them. I also use them for snow removal. Their prices are competitive for the yard work, but they are high for the snow removal. They do a fine job on the snow removal and are reliable. They are a good family company.

they are very knowledgeable about different plants, they are very accommodating, they will do almost anything you ask them to, they are very professional, they have moderate to high prices but it may vary upon the job.
