Description of Work: Spoke with them about coming out to bid a significant job that included a retaining wall, paver patio, fire pit, rock work and general landscaping. Made an appointment 2 weeks out and cut my vacation short to meet with them and they did not show. No calls. Called the office with only answering machine and no return calls. Very disappointed since they were rated high on this site.

I was extremely satisfied with LLG. I had originally gotten 3 quotes for my project and then had LLG come in at the last minute per a friend's recommendation. Their price was on par with our least expensive quote, and more importantly to me at the time, they were able to come out to do the work the soonest. Their crew completed our project in 2 days and worked very diligently. I had to go out of town so I couldn't oversee the project from beginning to end, so I had to leave some of the creativity in the hands of Anthony and I couldn't be more pleased as to how everything turned out. He was also flexible with my last minute requests like cutting down trees in our yard. He saved me time, money and the hassle of having to bring someone else out. Overall, the process was pain-free and quick. Anthony has a lot of great suggestions and advice which also saved me money (e.g., don't bother installing fabric under the mulch). I plan to use them again for future projects and recommend them to friends/family.
Description of Work: LLG mulched a very large area around all 4 sides of my yard including half my backyard. They leveled off an area in preparation for the installation of my kids' playset. They created a natural-looking paved path with large pieces of chilton flagstone. They planted around 40 hostas in my backyard. They also took down some small, dead trees, composted my vegetable garden in preparation for planting, and relocated a small bush per my last minute request.

They did a very poor job and I was completely dissatisfied with the amount of money that we paid (and was specifically written in the contract) and what we actually as an outcome. They had to come back 4 times to fix things and were completely rude when I questioned them about the work. The owner hung up on me the last time I spoke to him. Completely unprofessional and I would NEVER EVER use them again! They are HORRIBLE!
Description of Work: They were supposed to sod, plant, prune, and clean up my entire yard. The company is very small and it took them forever. They would come out for an hour and leave.

Response from Lawn and Landscape Gardens
In response to this review, I have discussed at length with the project manager (Anthony) who worked directly with the member and her husband pertaining this unfortunate experience. While this report can be viewed as a matter of opinion, I will do my best to represent facts and have email threads and paperwork to support my comments. On April 21, we received inquiry from the member who referenced LLG as having “lots of great reviews”. Due to the member's busy schedule, Anthony agreed to make a site visit without a homeowner present to make suggestions of what we could to do help make her landscape better (this may be the beginning of our error in not meeting with someone in person to establish strong communication). On April 25, Anthony responded to the member's request and sent an email offering 12 recommendations and related costs for her review. Later that day, the member responded and offered her husband’s contact information so that he could be brought in the loop. During a phone call with the member's husband, Anthony confirmed work to include: spring clean-up, a fertilizer application, pruning, mulching, a preen application, weeding and sod installation. It was never agreed upon to do any planting for the member. During the first week of May, the above work was completed and later paid for. In an email dated May 20, the member expressed her feelings of dissatisfaction of work and referenced plant work, which again, was not included in the scope of work agreed upon. In concluding the email, the member stated “my husband is very busy at work and does not have time to be dealing with my projects”. Herein lays another break in our communication process. Later that day, Anthony responded: “Member we need to meet. Call me when you can.” And again that same day, the member responded: “I will not have the opportunity to chat about the issues specifically related to my contract and the questionable outcomes. I could meet with you on Memorial Day”. Again on May 20, Anthony responded acknowledging that mulch would be spread more evenly and that extra sod work was agreed upon by her husband. Anthony also noted: “please review our emails as I have no record of install, or transplanting of plants at your residence” and he expressed apologies for her dissatisfaction and offered: “The last thing I want is someone to have a negative experience with LLG.” Anthony did meet with the member at 7AM on May 31 to discuss work and it was agreed upon that we preform additional seeding, sodding and aeration as well as the transplanting of some hostas. These additional services resulted in some additional costs, which were disputed by the member. Of the $307.13 billed, LLG agreed to discount the work by $75.00 due to the miscommunication between her, her husband and Anthony pertaining to sod; and to help resolve this issue and help bring this project to a close. On June 13, the member sent in a check for $50.00 of the $232.13 owed at that time. On July 1, we issued a statement for the remaining balance, which the member again disputed and refused to pay. LLG decided to not pursue collections for the remaining balance for services performed and not paid for. Compared to a company like Valley Crest, LLG is a small business. However, in the past 21 years, we have built up an active customer base exceeding 500 people. While we do hundreds of projects annually it is our mission to provide valuable outdoor services and develop positive working relationships with anyone who chooses to do business with LLG. As much as we’d like to take back any negative experience a customer has, it is because of these rare instances that helps us review how we do business and move in a direction that builds even stronger relationships with customers who have been with us for many years as well as the relationships we are currently building.

They were excellent; quick in what they did and did a very good job. They arrived while I was at work, and completed the work without me being there. I've had lawn services out before that left the grass clippings and debris on the driveway, but this company cleaned up very well after themselves. I'm happy with their services.

I didn't go with them. I was able to describe what I wanted done over the phone. I spoke with the owner of the company. I thought the quote was pretty high. I called a couple of places that I got off of Angie's List, and they gave me better deals. His manner was very nice. He was very considerate. He told me what the price would be and when he would be able to come out. His mannerism was very nice. The way he talked to me was nice. He wasn't in a rush. He took his time to explain what he would do. He was pretty informative. He called me right away.

no problems. I called and they took a look at the work, gave me an estimate and all plowing was done on time. The next year they simply invoiced me for the season's plowing.
Description of Work: We have had LLG plow our long driveway for two years now. Our driveway is a difficult configuration to plow. It has always been done in a timely manner and completely cleared even after our latest 17" snowfall.
