Response from Hampstead Landscaping Inc
So sorry that you were disappointed that we were too busy to give you an estimate in your requested time frame. When you first called I did return the call and told you that I was too busy that week on another job that we had contracted to do months previous. When I tried to schedule you for Tuesday the following week your response was that if I couldn't come on Monday then you would assume that I wasn't interested in your project. I'm not sure where you got the cost amount of $5509 as I never had given you a price. Again, I'm sorry that we weren't able to meet your schedule and come out as quickly as you would have liked, but we but we have to keep our schedule according to commitments we have made on jobs that we had contracted earlier. I hope that you have found someone who could meet your expectations and wish you all the best with your landscaping project.

Very well - work was beautiful. You can tell Sue knows her business. She is right out there with all getting her hands dirty. She is very particular and measured everything several times to be sure. She did what she said she would do. Great overall customer experience.

This project was much more involved than originally anticipated due to the quality of the soil. They did a wonderful job solving our problems and we couldn't be happier with our new, beautiful landscape. The plants are all thriving and the lighting highlights everything perfectly. We would highly recommend Sue and her crew. They do great work and are a pleasure to have around.
Description of Work: Our project involved solving very complicated drainage issues, including poorly drained soil and several areas of pooling water following rain storms. Following installation of our new pool Hampstead Landscaping put in a series of french drains that direct all of the rainwater to a rain garden. Much of the soil needed to be replaced and we had all new planting beds, paths, sod and landscape lighting installed.

Sue Loruso, her crew, and the subcontractors she uses have almost become like members of the family. They are trustworthy, professional, highly qualified, and just plain good people. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Description of Work: Hampstead Landscaping has completely landscaped my yard over the last few years. My yard went from a wasteland to a showplace! They did everything from helping arrange tree removal, installation of irrigation, sod, ornamentals, and lighting. Not only did they do the initial landscaping, but they periodically check back and do touch-ups when needed.

Description of Work: Sue and her team do a great job. We are so glad to have found her, and we will use her in the next phases of our landscaping work. She had good ideas and involved us in the whole planning phase. She showed pictures to illustrate her ideas, which was very helpful. | |Then, when the planting started, I was amazed at how well she prepared the areas for landscaping. She and her team rototilled, dug out tree roots and weeds, brought in good top soil and fertilizer. And, Sue really knows the "water" side of things; she made sure that all the sprinklers hit the right spots, and she converted one area from sprinkler to drip. The trees, flowers and bushes she planted look great and, now three months later, they are thriving. She also had the idea to add a couple of large rocks to one bed, and it looks wonderful. | |I have only one small issue, which is that the gardenias she planted were infested with thrips within the first couple weeks, and we lost most of the flowers. Sue helped us by phone and email figure out what the bugs were, and she told us how to treat them. I think 100% service would have been for her to come out and treat them herself on site.

Response from Hampstead Landscaping Inc
So sorry that we were unable to connect. We try to return calls within 24 Hours but in the Spring when the phone is ringing off the hook it may be a day or two longer. My records indicate that you received a call back two days after you left your first message and you were not available so a message was left asking you to call the cell number as I am always out in the field. When you returned that call you had left another message on the office line again. When I received your second message, I did return the call but you were again unavailable and must have missed that message. I called again this morning and we finally spoke and you indicated that you had hired someone else. Once again, I am sorry that we were unable to connect within your scheduled time frame and thank you for considering Hampstead Landscaping.

Response from Hampstead Landscaping Inc
[member name removed], It was a pleasure meeting with you last April to consult with you on your backyard landscaping project. After two site visits measuring and many hours trying and much thought , I'm sorry that I couldn't stay within your budget for the landscaping that I designed for your backyard. Unfortunately, with all of the items that you had asked for there was now way to cut costs without cutting corners. We have based our reputation for 24 years on using high quality materials, extensive soil preparation and providing exceptional customer service and attention to detail in all of our projects, which I'm sure you can understand is a valuable service. I hope that your project turned out to your liking and that you and your wife have enjoyed your new pool this summer, and I thank you for considering Hampstead Landscaping.

I originally contacted Hampstead Landscaping because I had seen the dry river bed and landscaping project that had been done by Sue at my sister's home. It was breathtaking! I found Sue to be very knowledgeable, responsive, and professional. Her team showed up when she said they would and were on time.More than that the end result is a "Wow"! That is the reaction when friends and family stop by. My project was a big one and I couldn't be more happy with the results.
Description of Work: Total remodeling of backyard including removal of all grass, installation of 4,000 gallon pond, hardscape pathways, new grass and plantings. Also construction of heavy weight trellises.

My sister had Sue do some work for her and she suggested I talk to her. Sue came to our house and we discussed what we wanted. She had wonderful suggestions and after we decided on the scope of the work she submitted a detailed estimate and after signing the work started at an agreed on date. Her company first had the French drain put in followed by their work on the dry river bed. She reworked my back gardens and fertilized and mulched. She put a bridge I purchased across the river bed so my mom could get to a swing on the other side she liked to sit in to read. She works hard and is always concerned with every detail of the job. She worked in a timely organized manor and we were very happy with our result.
Description of Work: We were having drainage issues so had a French drain put across the entire back of our yard because of the water problems and a beautiful dry river bed put on top. I think Sue touched every rock and stone in our river bed. She is a perfectionist and has great vision when she works for you. She is full of good ideas and her work is exceptional. We also had a patio put in at her suggestion and we love it. It has a wonderful shape and adds so to our yard. I would and have recommended her many times.

We met with them in the Fall of 2000 for a design and estimated costs. We were so pleased that we did not even contact anyone else for an estimate. They were very easy to work with from the beginning. They went with us to present a plan for a small fenced in back yard in 2001. The Architectural Review Committee was a very tough sell. Due to the excellent presentation by Hampstead Landscaping we were allowed to have a fenced in back yard. We are one of two that have this in the entire neighborhood. I have used them since that time for all major maintenance except the weekly cutting of the grass. I also still use them when I want something added or changed to my landscape.
Description of Work: They did all of my landscape design, irrigation system and all of the work involved when I built my home in 2001. They were excellent even building up all of the beds and amending the soil which many landscapers do not do. From the very beginning we received many, many compliments from neighbors and the Architectural Review Committee in our neighborhood. I have used them continually for the past 11 years. They put a beautiful koi pond in around 2005. They do most of my major maintenance except for the weekly cutting of the grass. I still use them when I want something added or something changed in my landscaping. When my husband died they even came to the Memorial Service which touched me deeply.

It never got started because they never returned my phone calls.
Description of Work: Don't bother calling. They don't even return phone calls. Left two messages that I wanted to hire them to install a patio. The second message reminded them I had called previously. No one returned my calls. If they can't return calls before getting the job imagine what it would be like if you weren't pleased with their service.

Response from Hampstead Landscaping Inc
Sorry about that. We were out of town on vacation for a week and came home to 35 calls to answer. Forgot to change message on answering machine due to sudden death in the family the week prior.I did However,leave you a message on Saturday 9/15/12 at 9:45 AM which you didn't respond to. I'm sure that you can understand that I am human and cannot always answer business calls immediately, which evidently, is hard for you as well as you haven't returned my call yet and it is Sunday, 9/16/12 at 9:30 AM almost 24 Hrs. later. You asked for an appointment on Monday and, as I stated in the message that I left for you on Saturday, I will be happy to look at your project on Monday if you are still interested in our services. You will first have to return my call and set up an appointment. Thank you for your interest in Hampstead Landscaping, Inc.

I've been using Sue LoRusso for more than 10 years and it's been great. I'm proud of the yard and her work. I'd recommend her to anyone who is serious about getting things done.
Description of Work: Sue LoRusso is a driven professional whom you can trust with your work. She designs, implements and can stay on a budget. She's both a registered landscape contractor and irrigation contrator. She's also licensed to adminster pesticides which is helpful to have her do it all. I'm most impressed that she is a certified plantsman and she knows her plants and what they will do. She's transplanted to this area and is straight forward; something that some have not taken to well. But she's honest, determined and gets things done. She works with a group of people some of whom have been with her for more than 20 years. She's right in there with them, it's not a service where someone gives you an estimate and someone else shows up to do the work. She draws, estimates and works with you on your plan and then implements it.
