Don and his team were great! The day that I was supposed to met Don for the consultation, I got stuck at work. When I called Don to inform him, he promised to wait. He waited for 40 minutes. During our meeting, we walked around the property. Don gave me tips as we walked around; he was very knowledgeable, so much so that I asked him if he would price additional services. Don provided a detail estimate of all the services for which I asked and agreed to provide the services in a phased approach, making it more financially manageable. He and his team will soon begin work on a new front porch and walkway, and I can't wait to see the results!
Description of Work: D & S performed a spring clean on my front and back lawns and did some basic landscaping and pruning. They also applied weed killers and used other chemicals to fertilize the lawn.

Isaac came to estimate the scope of the work. He was very thorough an knowledgeable. We met with a lot of landscapers, he was by far the most knowledgeable and reliable. We eventually postponed the project for next year, but will call them back for sure.

I called to ask for an estimate for lawn mowing but was told in my area they did other landscaping but not lawn mowing. From Angie's List description it appeared my town was in their service area, but after the phone call I looked at the web site and saw it did specify my area was not included for lawn mowing. I found this happened with a few companies so I learned to look at the web sites before calling.

Called for estimate on patio work. Fellow was not the most knowledgeable in terms of the work I needed done as he did not mention some of the specific details in the project that other contractors had indicated. I was quite surprised at his estimate as it still ended up being the highest. I quickly sent him on his way. Did not hire.

Went great, as usual. We have used D&S consistently over the last 8 years and are never disappointed. They have done a great job for us time and time again throughout the years. You can probably find cheaper, but in my experience, you get what you pay for and D&S provides quality work each and every time.
Description of Work: They performed a Spring clean up which consisted of trimming 3 large bushes, 7 medium shrubs, mowed the lawn, picked the weeds, removed all leaves, etc.

Called D&S on Sunday afternoon and spoke directly with Don who was very pleasant. Asked for an estimate he came within 48 hours and promptly gave us a reasonable estimate. Work was completed within the week. All of the landscapers were professional, courteous and helpful. Landscaping that was done makes our house look 100% more beautiful.

He made an appointment, was on time, and very forthright. He was very honest about what needed to be done and also made recommendations to me for when I had the work done. He gave me recommendations off of what I actually needed not what he would make money off of. I decided not to have my lawn redone.

I have called D & S for lawn maintenance, spring cleanup and grass cutting. They provided me estimates with all details and appointment date promptly. Estimates were fair and as per market price. I agreed and scheduled appointment. Later I wanted to change the appontment date because of fertizer/weed control treatment and wanted to reschedule appointment date. We were not able to reach each other and i have to go to someone else. I suggest the vendor to have a customer support professional who can answer the client calls. Otherwise we will have speak through voicemails and we will have lot of confusion.

I had the work scheduled for the spring cleanup and cutting. [member name removed] then left a message that he applied fertilizer and weed control to the lawn area and wait to do the work. I rescheduled him for the the following week. I would have completed the work on time. We are "A" rated on Angie's list and value all our customers.

For a number of years, I had been putting off hiring someone to take care of regular yard maintenance since I could no longer do it myself due to health issues. Just before I was to leave on vacation, I got a notice from the town about the lack of maintenance. I addressed all of the issues identified in the notice and made a mental note to take care of hiring someone when I returned. I returned from vacation two weeks later to find a court summons, requiring me to appear in court 12 days later. I contacted a number of landscaping companies in the area to get a quote and was very impressed with the responsiveness of D&S Landscaping. They returned my call within 24 hours, came within a few days to look at the work needed and provide me with a quote, which was in the ball-park of what I had anticipated. The work was completed a week later, which gave me enough time to take ?after? pictures for court.
Description of Work: Complete yard cleanup: clean-up leaves and branches on the ground; trim shrubs in front as needed; cut back weeds & brush on property; remove vines / weeds growing up side of house; spray backyard to control weeds. Remove work related debris from property.

Several years ago, D&S did a fine job hardscaping our back yard. It was a big job, done with sensitivity and imagination. We were delighted at the time. After a few years, a few patio areas began sinking -- probably because of an old tree that had stood there, whose roots continued to decay. We called D&S, and Isaac came by within days to check it out. Although we expected to be charged at a maintenance rate, Isaac immediately volunteered that the repair would be taken care of for free, as part of their commitment to their customers. He just asked that we wait for a convenient time for D&S to do the work. It did take a few reminder phone calls, but Isaac always confirmed they would do the work, and today their mason is here filling and relaying the affected area. I'm very impressed: D&S did a good job to start with, and unhesitatingly stood behind their product and maintained it, even when they could have blamed other circumstances. The pride and professionalism we observed back in 2008 are alive and well at D&S Landscaping.
Description of Work: Repair of a sinking area in patio pavement and a slight lip at the top of one staircase.

Please also think of your neighbors when you hire a landscape service. Excess noise and pollution is very undesirable. I would not recommend this company.
Description of Work: This landscaping company services homes in my neighborhood. I encountered them on a walk where they ,(1) were using leaf blowers in late May, (2) leaving the machines on while bringing to the truck to put away. Hence, they were causing noise and air pollution disturbance while wasting gas for no reason other than their own entertainment. That is very unprofessional. I imagine the cost of their waste gets passed on to their customers.
