The price was surely underestimated so I am grateful and will use them again every year.They did a great job! I never knew such equipment even existed and was amazed but felt a litttle guilty for the extra work I created for them.
Description of Work: I was stuck with 40 bags of leaves.I'm a new resident in Windham and didn't know that the city didn't collect leaves.I came from Boston where we bagged and left them to be picked up. I called and they took care of it right away.I learned not to bag leaves in the future because they put them through a mulcher on site !

Sean and the crew members I met were very polite, professional, and hard workers. Sean was very responsive, always returning a message the same day, if not within the hour. He was careful to explain the pros/cons of options and gave clear instructions. He fit my job in between other things and definitely seemed busy, so there were a couple of times I needed to reach out to him to check on the status of something--but as I said, he would immediately get back to me. The end result looks great. His estimate was the most competitive I received, and then the job ultimately cost much lower than estimated. Overall: fair, trustworthy, and responsive. I plan to reach out to get an estimate for additional work.
Description of Work: Removed an old playground area in my backyard (pebbles and mulch that had become overgrown by weeds and were bordered by wooden slats) and seeded new grass.

It went great. His pricing was reasonable and he was great at communicating through Angie's List. We set the date and he was going to leave a bill for me. However I never received one. He was honest with me that the gutters did not need to be cleaned. Honesty goes a long ways with me. I will absolutely call him for my next related project, which will be in the spring.

Sean returned my initial phone call within a few hours. Came the next day to give an estimate and talk about what we wanted to have done. Came to the job with 2 others, mobilized like a small army and worked very intently and energetically. The work was terrific. Fine job! He did not leave a bill but phoned a few days later to say he sends the invoice by e-mail. When he suggested a return date for the next mowing, I hedged, because we are strapped financially. He was encouraging and flexible and seemed like he wanted to work with us. Kind man who does fabulous work! (He is returning next week!)
Description of Work: mowed and trimmed an acre of very overgrown grass, working around a fence. quick and thorough. Highly professional and flexible.

I am MORE than satisfied! Within 36 hours of my initial inquiry, Sean Ellis Landscaping was at my home to discuss with me all my lawncare needs, wants and and various options. That in itself was impressive. There was no hard-selling, no pressure, just courteous professionalism. When I decided to purchase services from Sean Ellis Landscaping, they were there within a week to begin. They have done an excellent job, not only much better than I ever could have done, but they even did better than I had ever dared to hope for. I have no complaints at all, I am soooo happy with them, I will continue to use them! Thank you Sean Ellis Landscaping!!

We have needed gutter cleaning since we bought our house in 2010 and have had a very tough time getting someone to do it. The house is very tall, with a fairly steep pitched roof and sloped topography and some contractors said they could not do it and another gave an estimate, but after repeated calls, never called back to schedule the work. We found Sean Ellis via Angie's list, and although he is based a few towns over, he advertised that he works in Cape Elizabeth. All contacts with Sean were excellent. He promptly replied to my initial call, promptly came and provided an estimate, which was very reasonable and when we were ready for the service, was able to schedule us within a few days. Sean and his helper were successful in getting the gutters cleaned, but it required him thinking about a few different scenarios to get it done safely. In the end, with two people at the bottom of the ladder, he was able to reach the highest point and clean the totally filled gutters. We then had him take down two big limbs on some tree branches hanging over wires. This also posed issues which he was able to navigate successfully. He cleans up, and was a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend him and will use him regularly in the future for these type jobs.

Our flower beds were out of control with weeds. We tried to do it ourselves and quickly realized that we didn't have the right tools. We received a couple bids and chose Ellis. I never met him but we talked on the phone and emailed back and forth. They did the weeding first and came back a week or so later with the mulch. It seemed like a long time between the two phases but I knew going in that it would not all happen the next day. It looks great and would use Ellis again.

We needed to hire a trustworthy and reliable service provider to care for my grandfather's yard. I used Angie's List to locate providers in Portland. Sean quickly responded to my email request, scheduled a visit to the property to provide an estimate. This started out as a clean-up and ongoing weekly maintenance bid. We were so pleased with the results, we added additional projects over the course of the summer. As part of the spring clean-up, Sean cleared the flagstone walkway from the front side walk to the front door -- a walkway that had been overgrown for years! It added so much to the appearance of the yard. Neighbors came by to comment on the imrovements in the yard! Sean has provded services from Spring 2012 through Fall 2012 and will restart again in April.
Description of Work: Sean provided yard clean-up (spring and fall), weekly mowing, removal and replacement of small shrubs, trimming of shrubs and trees (including a large evergreen), and hauling of a metal tool shed.

Most recently I asked Ellis Landscaping to do a significant spring clean-up job that included hauling away an extensive accumulation of leaves, tree cuttings, and the like. In addition, they pruned all of the plantings in front of the house, and did an extensive and artful job of edging and mulching. I was very pleased with the result.
Description of Work: Ellis Landscaping is my regular lawn care service. I have been using Sean Ellis for lawn care for years and he has always been reliable, punctual, courteous and priced fairly. In recent years I've also taken to using him for more extensive lawn and landscape projects.
