It’s $30 for mowing the grass and trimming. I think that's great and very reasonable and their work is exceptional. They get you with the seasonable clean up and tree trimming though. That is around $250. They are really good at it and the result is excellent, but I feel that these services are a bit expensive. I haven’t shopped around so I may be wrong, but the grass cutting seems cheap and everything else seems on the high end.
Description of Work: They come regularly to do landscaping for us. They come every other week except in the winter. They also do a seasonal clean up.

They are coming tomorrow to do the work. Their estimate price was very fair. I thought it was a very good quote. Actually, I called them over the telephone and they showed up in 4 hours.

After I first spoke to Giancarlo about our needs, he came the next day to provide an estimate. He was on time to the appointment, walked us through the property and talked through in detail what he would do. He provided an estimate on paper and was very understanding that I needed to consult with my other neighbors as this would be a shared cost. It took me a while to get back to him and he was very understanding and not at all pushy. He recommended a big pruning job as a start, and described what he would do as part of the work. He gave recommendations for when he could come back for a seasonal cleanup, and what he would do then and how much he would charge. The cost of the start-up job felt a bit steep, but the price made sense given the number of hours his crew would need to groom the landscape. That said, his estimates for the seasonal clean ups, lawn cutting, and other services were acceptable. I should also mention that his crew worked very hard and I did not once feel like the crew was too large or that they were dilly dallying to exaggerate the effort required. His crew came a week earlier than originally scheduled, and worked very hard from start to finish. I think in total there were 2 men at our place for about a day and a half. I found them to be extremely professional. They were polite, did exactly what Giancarlo had described, had all the right equipment (or else promised to come back with the proper equipment), they cleaned up after themselves and took away all the trimmings. They worked quickly but neatly. After they left and we had a few days to take it all in, we realized there were a few items they did not get to. We called Giancarlo and he came by to take a look and refresh his memory on what we had discussed. Then his crew came the very next day to take care of the remaining items. We were very satisfied with the startup work and look forward to his continued service to our property. I will check back in to let you know how that goes.
Description of Work: Giancarlo Bianchi's crew gave a once-over grooming to our property, which was in desperate need of trimming back. We were switching from our previous landscaper to Giancarlo, and he wanted to clean up the landscaping to have a nice baseline to start his service contract.

Overall excellent work. Very responsive (came out day I called for an estimate, completed work within a week). High quality work (hand cut many of the bushes). Very professional. Price was a little higher than expected, especially since some of the bushes originally included in the quote weren't done due to a tree that came down in a storm during the week. However, only a minor issue.

The job went very well. They were prompt, professional and courteous. I thought the job was well managed and that communication was excellent. In the midst of the job I had to call Giancarlo with a question and he was on top of the project, and gave me great advice, which helped keep the whole project moving on time. I am so glad that I found them and plan to use them again this fall for some other work that we want to have done.
Description of Work: They removed a couple stone walkways and some stone landscaping in the yard, replaced the stone with topsoil and seeded the area. They also removed some large shrubs and transplanted a number of other shrubs around the yard.

Overall, I was pleased with the outcome. There was one issue (delivering the pea stone) where the foreman in charge told that I couldn't just ask to have pea stone one day and expect the stone to be delivered the next. After speak with Giancarlo, he apologized for not documenting that part of my order and scheduled someone to deliver the stone on time anyway. Everyone can make mistakes from time to time... it's how they are handled that really counts and I appreciated how he resolved it.
Description of Work: Ripped up old lawn, added several inches of top soil and re-seeded. Also delivered much, pea stones and topped off one of the trees on my property

Giancarlo expertly identified our shrubs during an initial visit around dusk, which thoroughly impressed us. His crew came by about a week later, and spent a full day taming our overgrown gardens, shrubs, hedges, and lawn. Taming a wild almost dangerous rose bush. Their work was first-rate, and we plan to hire them in the spring.

I tried to rake the leaves myself to save money this year but Mother Nature won: I needed help and my town's last yard waste removal was around the corner. I call Bianchi Landscaping mid-week and Giancarlo, the owner, arranged to meet me the following Saturday. He showed up promptly at the scheduled time walked around the yard, asked good questions about what plants stayed, which ones could be cut down, and gave me a quote. I called him within a couple of days and then his crew showed up when I was at work. When I returned home that day my yard looked spotless. The only negative is that they cut down our ornamental grasses which I specifically said to leave. But, Giancarlo tried to call me twice to let me know they had made a mistake before I reached home. I plan on using them again next year but spread out their clean-up over three visits.
Description of Work: I needed leaves removed from our front, side, and back yards as well as the streets in front and behind my house.

This is the second year we have used them for our leaf removal and we have had a great experience both years. In my opinion they go above and beyond when cleaning our yard. We have large oak trees in the back yard and they remove not only the leaves, but also all of the acorns that accumulate in the yard. They also take the time to rake our mulched areas and even trimmed some tall grasses we have along our fence in preparation for the winter. They are extremely thorough and remove leaves from areas that I skip when I do it myself. They are prompt and professional and since we used them last year they had our estimate on file so that they did not need to come out and do another estimate, they just showed up two days after we contacted them and the work was completed. I would definitely recommend them.
Description of Work: They removed leaves and raked our front, back and side yards. They also trimmed down our tall grasses and did some other general maintenance on our yard as they removed the leaves.

Rather than weeding my garden, they just removed a few inches of topsoil. A plant also went missing in my garden and looks to be removed intentionally (will attach photos). Less than a week later, my house flooded (which has never happened before) which cost me $2500 to repair. I needed to have all of the water removed as well as Sheet Rock replaced at my expense. As a result of the company removing all of the soil (and leaving a trench in my garden) the flood water washed the dirt into my basement.
Description of Work: They trimmed a few trees and bushes. I asked them to also weed a section directly behind my house.

Response from Giancarlo Bianchi
I GIANCARLO BIANCHI MET THE CUSTOMER ON JULY 16,2012 GAVE HER A QUOTE FOR THE WORK TO BE DONE WHICH CONSISTED OF THE FOLLOWING WHICH WAS COMPLETED ON JULY 27,2012. WE CAME IN AND TRIMMED BACK THE BUSHES, CLEANED THE BEDS, CUT GRASS, PULLED POISON IVY, PULL TREE SAPPLINGS OUT. SHE ALSO STATED SHE WANTED EVERYTHING DONE EXCESSIVELY BECAUSE SHE WAS GOING THRU A DIVORCE AND WOULD NOT HAVE MONEY IN THE FUTURE TO DO MORE CLEAN UPS. ON JULY 27, 2012 THE WORK WAS COMPLETELY DONE AND PREFORMED TO SATISFACTION. SHE PAID IN FULL IN AUGUST 2012. AT THE END OF SEPTEMBER SHE CALLED ABOUT FLOODING IN HER BASEMENT, I WENT TO HER HOUSE AND LOOKED OVER THE WORK WE HAD DONE AND THE ISSUE, I NOTICED THE ISSUE SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE WORK WE PREFORMED AGAINST THE BACK OF THE HOUSE. THERE IS A BED ABOUT A FOOT AND A HALF AWAY FROM THE FOUNDATION THE BED RUNS FROM THE FAR END OF THE BASEMENT ENTRANCE TO THE END OF THE HOUSE, SLOPED TOWARD THE ENTRANCE OF THE BASEMENT. WE PULLED WEEDS SOIL GOT MOVED IN BEDS ONLY. WHEN THE HEAVY RAIN CAME IN AUGUST (3” OR MORE IN SOME AREAS) THE GUTTER HAD NO EXTENSIONS, SO THE WATER WAS AGAINST THE FOUNDATION AND RAN TOWARD THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL TOWARD THE ENTRANCE OF THE BASEMENT SOIL ERODED SO IT CREATED A DAM AND THE WATER WENT UNDER HER PORCH INTO HER BASEMENT. I FEEL THAT THE WORK WAS PREFORMED PER CONVERSATION “I DID NOT” CREATE A PROBLEM THAT ALREADY EXISTED. DUE TO ELIMINATING THE WEEDS IN THE BED THE SOIL HAD NO ROOTS TO STAY IN THAT AREA. IF SHE HAD AN EXTENSION ON HER DOWN SPOUT THERE WOULD BE NO ISSUE. THE END OF SEPTEMBER WHEN I SPOKE TO HER, I TOLD HER ALL OF THIS, I INSTALLED AN EXTENSION TO THE GUTTER, AND PITCHED THE SOIL TO THE AIR CONDITIONER AWAY FROM THE HOUSE WITH ROCKS, SO THERE WOULD BE NO FUTURE SOIL EROSION. I FEEL I DID MY JOB AND IT WAS AN UNFORTUNATE CIRCUMSTANCE. P.S. IF THE DRAIN BY THE ENTRANCE WAS CLEAR AND CLEAN THERE WOULD BE NO ISSUE. THANK YOU GIANCARLO BIANCHI

A crew of 3 came by twice. The first phase was about a month ago and his crew came by yesterday to finish. They did a remarkable job on the fall clean-up project and carted everything away for a very reasonable price considering the work. Definitely will use them again and recommend them 100%!

John Bianchi came out to provide an estimate on the same day I called. I have about 1/4 acre of land with many trees. We needed a full Fall clean-up, plus plants cut back for the winter and dozens of small to medium sized branches removed. John's quote of $385 included an additional visit to be scheduled at my discretion to pick up leaves that fell after his team's first visit. John's team (2 ppl) arrived within a couple of days, as promised, and did a fantastic job! They were professional and thorough. Although it was evident that John had told them what was needed, one of the crew walked around the house with me to review/confirm, which I appreciated. He did the same once the job was finished. It looked great! The team returned a couple of days after hurricane Sandy to do the second cleaning with the same great results. We will definitely use Bianchi again.

Thrilled! We are thrilled with the job that John's team did with our lawn. It had gotten very overgrown and needed some serious TLC. We watched the team hand-weed all of our mulch, trim bushes, do edging and trim trees. The pricing was very reasonable, and we have assigned the same company another property nearby to do as well because we were so happy with the job they did. We are having them back every other week this year for mowing and leaves in the fall. I found them easy to work with and unless something changes with their services, I forsee a long term relationship with Bianchi and his team.

I think they are very thorough, consistent, and they have an eye for the lawn. They are landscaping people rather than people who just mow lawns. They will trim things that look shaggy. They were very reasonably priced I think.
