Responded to quote request quickly. Very good communication and kept me up to date as the work done required more than one visit. I had a small yard which was left unattended for over a couple of months and required extensive cutting and cleaning with some trash removal. Job was done with complete satisfaction.

It is unfortunate I have to write a bad review, as i'd prefer to say nothing at all... I hired Mark to do a full back yard makeover, which included removing existing flagstones, increase grade of lawn area, roll new grass, build stone wall, install pavers. Mark met with me a few times to estimate the job, very pleasant guy, and we agreed on a price. It was very competitive to other contractors, though i decided to not include as much keeping the price down. After initial conversations it was very hard to get Mark to respond to get started on the job, and started a few wakes later than initially agreed and deposit paid. Once it started, it was a half day here, a day there. No consistency. Though Mark told me he had a team, he really only had one helper that also worked on other jobs. After a few weeks of this I was getting very fed up and had words with Mark. His excuse was that he "was doing me a favor with the price" as he learned the other quotes I had received. He finally returned to get started on the wall. He no sooner started on the wall, when he injured his hand badly and could not complete the job. I felt bad he was injured, and understood his position, and he agreed to return the remainder of the deposit (he declared I had most of it remaining, as he had only done a few days work at this point). His irrigation guy, who is very good, continued to do his piece, but i had to hire a new crew to complete the project. They did an excellent job and had to correct the mistakes made on the bit of wall that was started. As I said, i would prefer not to write a negative review, however after several months of attempts to contact Mark to see how much deposit I had remaining so I could get it returned, I have not received a single response. This is unfortunate as he is a nice guy, but I don't like being screwed over.
Description of Work: Back yard makeover. Raising grade, lawn, irrigation, edging, stone wall, paving.

Mark has been very responsive to my calls and requests over the years. I initially reached out to him after trying unsuccessfully to get other landscapers in Waltham to return my calls. His prices are fair, and his team has done great work. They are always flexible to doing odd jobs and other things I need done with my property.
Description of Work: Mark and team have done Fall and Spring clean-ups and mulch work for me for 2 years.

Cappadona Landscapers do an excellent job for a very reasonable price. The most important thing for me is that they show up when they are supposed to and they are reliable. I have a multi family home so it's important that it always looks nicely manicured and the walkways are clear of snow when the tenants leave for work in the morning. I would and have recommended them to friends and family and they too have good experiences.
Description of Work: As a landscaper they do a spring clean up on my lawn which includes mulching all the beds , edging, pruning , and mowing. They have taken care of my lawn on a regular basis for the last 5 years now. We are set up on a regular mow schedule and they keep our house looking great all season long. In the winter they plow our driveway and shovel the walk ways and sand.

The owner was very knowledgeable and had many great ideas to give the home new curb appeal. The workers showed up on time and were very respectful of my neighbors. They got the bulk of the brush and overgrowth removed and we are able to move on to the fun part with the design of the new landscaping and plantings. Moving forward we have a plan in place to get the rest of the work done. I am very excited about all the new space I now have in my back yard and look forward to working with them in the future to complete the remainder of the work. I have had disappointing experiences in the past with other companies that were not reliable and very overpriced, so it was a great relief to finally find a company like Cappadona Landscape that that made my life easy, produced great work and started a new friendship going forward.
Description of Work: I live an an old home that was in need of extensive landscape work. At the beginning the project was seemed very overwhelming as the property had been neglected for many years. I met with the owner mark and we put a logical plan in place to tackle the property in phases. There was an extensive clean up, including some tree removal needed to make way for the overall new landscape design. We met on site, assessed the immediate work needed and was provided with a timely competitive estimate.

Mark and his crew were on time, courteous, clean, efficient and inexpensive. I will use them for all of my landscaping needs.
Description of Work: Mark and his crew did a massive spring clean up at my rental property in Watertown. They cleaned up 10 years worth of old bark mulch in the flower beds, removed and replanted 2 dead boxwood bushes, trimmed all the other boxwoods to match the new ones, pulled weeds, mowed the lawn, added spring lawn fertilizer and weed control, trimmed back some overgrown trees, removed leaves etc.

Up front, Mark was very helpful. He came out twice to help us determine what we should do for the backyard and walked us through several pitfalls that could have caused problems. He showed up on time and was very professional. We made the decision on what we were going to do, and he left, promising to send us several quotes that we could choose from. But we never heard from him again. We reached out and contacted him several times after this, but got no response. Due to how late in the year this was, and how much time we gave for a response, we didn't have the time to start the process over with another company -- and so we won't be able to get work done until this next year. This is a shame. Until he decided to end all contact, he had seemed very knowledgeable and professional. He showed up on time and really helped the process.
Description of Work: Helped us to figure out the patio and retaining wall we wanted for the back yard.

He did come and was very helpful and informative. He jotted down all our needs and said he would send an estimate. We've yet to receive one. I don't want to chase someone to do a job. He did at one point say he was behind in estimates but then the communication just stopped. I'm disappointed because they were so highly rated. i'm finding this with many of the providers andI'm not that picky. They all just seem 'too busy'.

At Cappadona Landscape and in my personal life I take pride in being very professional. I'm quite confused from the rating based on the review, and some of the review. Member stated, I did come and was very helpful and informative. In fact, I came by twice to go over some details and additional work the member requested. Punctuality: I always schedule an hour time frame to not be late for a estimate, and I did arrive within both time frames. Professionalism: Member states I was very helpful and informative. Quality C, but yet I did not do any work. Price: my prices are reasonable and we get 98% of the jobs with repeat customers and references. The estimate was sent and my promise was kept in getting back to this member within a few days. At that point the member said I had taken too long getting back to her and is hiring someone else. No time during the conversation did the member mention not receiving the estimate, but did say my prices were too high. I tried to work things out by offering a discount, but the member refused. I have a customer in the area and while driving past the members house noticed the work performed by another company was not up to par with the quality of our work. At Cappadona Landscape we provide high quality work and experience at compatible rates

One of the many priorities in me being a landscape professional is getting back to people. I'm normally also very thorough in retaining emails and keeping a written log of voicemails. I just checked through my Angie's list messages along with the other forms of contacting me, and don't seem to have any prior communication from you. I apologize for the confusion, but for some reason I didn't get your request for a quote. If you still need help with your project it will be my pleasure to provide you with an estimate. Thank you and my sincere apologies again. Looking forward to working with you

Mark and the crew showed up at approx 8/8:30 perfect time. Very personable professional appearance. I went over the areas we needed looked at. He said yes we can do all that for the agreed upon price. He then cut down brush, and amassed all the yard waste that had accumulated over the years. Put it in the back of his truck, edged my lawn and driveway areas and re seeded some bare spots on my lawn I would say he was in and out of there in a little over an hour. Very nice guy easy to work with, we will have him back in the fall to do some more yard upgrades.

Had Mark and his crew back again this spring for a whole yard clean up. What a great professional group these guys are. I can be a bit particular and they were attentive to the last detail. Planning on having Mark back out to give us a quote on some hardscaping in our yard / sidewalk area
Description of Work: Spring clean up / Hardscaping
Mark and his crew fertilize, cut and beautify my lawn and shrubs every year. In the Spring they prep the grass and fertilize as necessary and then they maintain my lawn all summer and into the Fall. When the Fall comes they do a major yard clean up and then they prep the lawn for the winter. When Spring comes the grass is already green!
Description of Work: Mark and his crew are consummate professionals. They always deliver as promised and are always on time and on budget. I have been using Cappadona Landscaping for approximately 6 years now. I use them not only for landscaping but also for snow removal. I own a 2-family and a 4-family home in Watertown and I use Cappadona Landscape for everything. I've never been disappointed.

IN ADDITION TO THE DETAILS LISTED ABOVE, MARK CAPPADONA WAS HIRED TO SEND TWO MEN WEEKLY TO MOW OUR FRONT, AND BACK LAWNS, AND REMOVE DEBRIS. OFTEN, THE ONLY SIGN THAT THEY HAD BEEN TO OUR HOUSE WAS THAT OUR LAWN FURNITURE WAS TURNED OVER (PRESUMABLY SO THE MOWER TO GET PAST IT). THE MEN WERE CARELESS, KNOCKING DOWN NEWLY PLANTED FLOWERS WITH LEAF BLOWERS, MOWING OVER VIOLETS ON OUR CURB, SUFFOCATING YOUNG PLANTS BY OVER MULCHING, AND DECAPITATING NEWLY PLANTED FLOWERS WITH A WEED CUTTER. OFTEN THEY WOULD NOT HAUL AWAY DEBRIS BUT HIDE IT BEHIND DRIVEWAY DOORS. WE FIRED CAPPADONA BECAUSE CUTTING OUR NEW PLANTS WAS THE LAST STRAW.
Description of Work: HIRED TO DO SPRING CLEAN UP, FALL CLEAN UP, AND FINAL CLEAN. IN BETWEEN 1 FEEDING OF CRABGRASS CONTROL, 1 FEEDING OF WEED CONTROL, 4 FEEDINGS OF LAWN BUILDER, 1 FEEDING OF INSECT CONTROL, 1 FEEDING OF LIME, 1 WINTERIZE PLUS WEED INHIBITOR, TRIMMING OF SHRUBS, REMOVE LEAVES, AND DEBRIS FROM LAWN, WALK, DRIVEWAY, TIE SHRUBS, ETC.

I had initially given an estimate, but didn't get hired. At the time there was a person with a very similar name doing landscape work, and I think that's where the confusion is. After receiving this review I made attempts to contact this member letting her know it was not us she hired. I also offered our service along with details on the benefits of hiring us. I never heard back and then requested help from Angie's List staff to get this sorted out. The staff member was unable to get in touch with the member or obtain any documentation showing it was us that did the work. Prior to starting any project we always have contracts signed to prevent confusion or misunderstandings. Cappadona Landscape takes great pride in providing high quality workmanship with utmost professionalism, dependability, and vast knowledge in the green industry.
