Hi [member name removed], We are sorry but we have no records of your phone calls. There are 3 Lighthouse Landscape's in the area. Did you call our office line (781-237-4422)? We do occasionally get messages left on our voicemail that we are unable to hear / understand due to poor connection or clarity. If you have not had the work done yet, please call me directly on my mobile 508-989-0287 and I would be happy to help you. Again we apologize. Thank you, Russell Gates Owner

Description of Work: We use them for their plowing service. Our driveway is difficult to get into and a bit challenging to maneuver so we are charged $80 a visit. Usually they need to come twice for a storm so it does add up. But they do a good job and come at reasonable times.

We had over 350 phone calls for blizzard plowing and were not taking any new customers at that time. It was impossible to return all of the calls as we were focusing on our current customers at the time.

Lighthouse did exactly what they said they would do. No problems. This was a tricky project since it was on a boundary between neighbors, one of whom owned the wall and the other had their backyard area compromised for several years because they was was very old and in disrepair.
Description of Work: Demo old retaining wall and fence. Design, Excavate and build New England fieldstone wall and new cedar privacy fence on top.

I started using him last winter because the other company I used closed without notice. I was in great need of snow plowing. He came and saved me, so I decided him to hire him for other projects throughout the year.
Description of Work: I use him for lawn mowing, snow removal, and firewood delivery. He recently came over to mow my lawn.

They are very professional and are very reliable. We have it set up so that they will come out anytime there is at least 3 inches of snow, but you can make different arrangements as to when you want them to come. Once you sign a snow removal contract, you will get the owner's cell phone number where you can reach him 24/7. He's always been very responsive -- either answers or calls back within a few minutes. Anytime we have called to have them come earlier because my husband needs to leave early for work, they have always come on time. Their rates are very reasonable, and we've been very happy. We've used them for winters.
Description of Work: Lighthouse plows our very large driveway and shovels the front walk and around our cars.

Joy Foley refered these guys and I'm thrilled with them as they do stuff that I've ask others to do but they never did. This guy gets right up to the stakes so I don't have to hand shovel. I don't have to call him to get it done as he knows what time I have to get out to be to work on time.
