Description of Work: Spring Clean-Up 2016. I used Salvucci landscaping for the first time in 2015. The owner, Paul, was very professional and extremely prompt when he came to give me an estimate and paid attention to my concerns and questions. He was very flexible in working with my schedule and was willing to work with me in my situation. My experience was very positive last year. Salvucci landscaping was reliable, efficient and attentive to any requests we had. His employees were experienced, knowledgeable and efficient in their work and were very hard working. They were polite, respectful and helpful to answer any questions or concerns we had. With no phone call from me this spring, his men were here this March right on time to do the spring clean-up. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to hire a landscaping service. I look forward to working with Salvucci Landscaping for the 2016 Season.

Working with Paul and team has been great since day 1. I had worked with a previous company that had left my lawn in a state of disrepair, and after I reached out to Paul, he had everything under control within a few days. Any time I've needed anything additional, he's quick to respond to either phone calls or emails, but most of the time I don't even know he's there, he just gets things done.
Description of Work: The $35 cost of service is for a weekly/biweekly lawn mowing, but in addition to that Paul's team has done spring/fall clean ups, pruning, fertilizer treatments, and all other care of my yard.

Paul and his crew have been taking care of my yard for several years now. They do a spring and fall clean up and then weed during the summer. Paul is always pleasant to deal with and responsive. His crew gets the work done in general when they say they will. The men on the crew are also polite. They mostly don't speak much English but that has not been a problem.
Description of Work: One of his men weeded my considerable yard for several hours.

I had been looking forward to using this service provider based on the excellent reviews by people with the same situation as mine (2-unit condo, 10K sq. ft. land), and their location as a local business. I am looking for fall yard cleanup, winter snow removal, and potential spring/summer contract. I sent an email from their website requesting a quote and have called THREE TIMES, leaving a message each time. No one will even call me back. I am having a hard time understanding this, particularly where the reviews were so good. Very disappointed.

Description of Work: We reached out to 5 landscapers. Each condo had a vote and the vote was won by Salvucci. We have hired him for the summer and he has been terrific. I do not have to chase him and he quickly does anything I ask. He arrives with a team and is in and then out of here quickly. He bills monthly.

Obviously I wasn't happy to read that response so I responded back stating that I would be posting his email response to my facebook page, and would contact the BBB. I also stated that I would be getting an estimate for the damage to my car and have him pay for a complete auto detail. His employees are probably illegals too. I posted this on my facebook, the BBB, yelp, and the attorney generals office and now Angie's List. This owner has NO respect for peoples property. I understand that they have a job to do but so does everyone else - that doesn't give them the right to destroy peoples property and be rude about it. Hope he learns a hard lesson from social media!
Description of Work: on Friday, April 18, 2014 around 8:30 am, I was at the laundromat on Adams Street in Newton. I had to park in front of the laundromat because SALVUCCI LANDSCAPE had the parking lot blocked off because they were doing spring clean up - removing the sand. I paid no mind to it until I noticed an older gentleman, who was also in the laundromat, go outside and stand near his car and waited for the landscapers to blow off the sand and dirt off of his car. After a few minutes, the landscapers came over to where my car was parked and blew sand and dirt all over my car. I watched from inside the laundromat as he walked away without cleaning off my car. I went outside and waited for one of the landscapers to look over at me, and i gestured to him to clean off my car. He said absolutely nothing to me. After a few minutes, he walked across the parking lot, picked up the leaf blower, and cleaned off my car. I went out after to check my car and noticed a mark on the back of my trunk - the landscaper was obviously waving the leaf blower too close to my car. My car is completely filthy too and when I opened my trunk, there was dirt and sand all on the inside. I decided to contact Salvucci Landscape Co. so that they were aware of what their employees are doing. Later that night, I received an extremely rude email from the owner, Paul Salvucci. I would have been satisfied with an apology and letting me know that he'd speak to his employees about it but instead I got the following email: "Sorry if you had come out and found dirt on your car. I really don't think it should be a complaint . My employee had went back to every car and blw them off maybe you really don't have any thing better to do we had a job to do and we did it there are bigger things to worry about in this world then a $ 10.00 Car wash thanks"

We have now had our driveway and front walk cleared three times by Paul Salvucci's company. They have been thorough, yet careful not to damage some young trees along the driveway that a previous service harmed. They charge per visit, at a reasonable rate. (The rate varies depending on area to be cleared, so they inspect before they give you a quote.)
Description of Work: Cleared our driveway, front walk, and steps after each snowfall this season.

Paul was very resposnive and he was there several times a day to check in with his crew and with me. It was challenging to find a landscaper who was willing to do the removal work given the tight access to the property. I would highly recommend Salvucci Landscaping!!!
Description of Work: Salvucci Landscaping cleared entire overgrown front and back yard on hillside. Complete removal of trees, grass, shrubbery, etc.

Business must be pretty good if you can afford to not return calls from prospective customers.
Description of Work: I left a message to inquire about snow removal this winter and never got the courtesy of a return call.
Our 2-unit condo association in Watertown chose Salvucci Landscaping to take care of our ~10,000 sq foot lot for lawn care. Paul and his team were very quick to provide us with an estimate and easy to work with. Paul and his team provided bi-weekly mowing and hedge-trimming. We also had Paul and his team take care of our spring and fall clean-up as well (fall clean-up ran about $300). Paul and his team were ALWAYS punctual, and did a fantastic job cleaning up the property. Whenever something came up (down tree branches due to Hurricaine Sandy), Paul was but a phone-call away and more than willing to help out. We recently chose to use Salvucci for snow-removal services, however, admittedly I waited until the last minute to ask Paul for services. Paul and his team were there early the next morning and our driveway and walkways were clear before we woke up. I highly recommend Paul as he takes pride in his work, is courteous and easy to work with, is price-competitive and provides a high quality of service.

Pail and his team descended on our garden and revitalized it in 2 days. They took away approximately a truck-worth of overgrowth, all without making the trees look bare. They fixed up a lawn in need of care and mulched. TImely, professional, and not as expensive as fancier lawn services. And Paul is an extremely nice guy.

he did a very nice job, He was very accommodating, responsive and nice to work with. I had a small window of opportunity to get this problem fixed and he really worked with in scheduling.
Description of Work: They re sawed-ed my front yard.
The work that was quoted and the time frame for completion were spot on. They showed up when they said they would, did what was agreed to and even competed the work sooner than was planned. We were able to have a backyard party earlier than we thought possible. They've been doing our yardwork for a few seasons with great consistancy and now I know that I'd hire them in a second to do any additional landscape renovations!!
Description of Work: Salvucci Landscape has been cutting our lawn and doing Spring and Fall cleanups for a few years and the yard always looks great. This year we decided to add more area to our backyard. Paul gave a very reasonable estimate to grind a couple stumps, plant a hedge of Rose of Sharon, put in some landscape timber steps and lay down sod. He said he'd be there in a week and it would take two days. He showed up a week later and it only took a day and a half. He told me to water everything twice a day for 2 weeks. I did that and now we have the most amazing backyard oassis!!

We've used Salvucci for several years. He makes our lawn look as good as it can, given that we don't want to pay top dollar to put in new landscaping or invest new flowers, etc.. IN other words, he works with what we have and maintains it so that it looks its best. Also friendly and accommodating, and seems to provide good supervision of his workers. (He also works hard himself, but is working on some of our neighbors' houses on the same day -- so going back and forth a bit.) Bottom line -- gets the job done. Please note that the $ amount included in this report is an estimate of average per month over several months. Format of this site does not allow for averaging or annualizing for services over period of time. Same with the date of services.
Description of Work: We use Salvucci for winter snow removal and for lawn care the rest of the year. (though I'm not sure about expertise in tree pruning skills. tree care is a special area and I would rather use a tree pro) For lawn, edging, shrubs, everything else -- this is a good company to deal with. Paul Salvucci is the owner and takes great care to do what the customer wants. He is not inexpensive (not the cheapest you'll find, but not most expensive either) -- but we choose to pay for knowing we don't have to worry about what needs to be done and when. Salvucci just shows up and does what's needed, without waiting for a call from us. (This goes for lawn care and snow removal). He is also very polite and will take instruction for particular things that need to be done - in a cheerful and professional manner.
