My experience with DiNardi Landscaping was short-lived an extremely painful. While their services didn’t seem to be outrageously over-priced they are very much like the Verizon’s and Comcast’s of the world that we struggle to get rid of. They offer a service package with $ dollar amounts that you cannot negotiate no matter the size of property. My wife and I signed up for Spring Cleanup, treatments for all of the seasons, and tree trimming. As far as the spring cleanup we could not tell the difference between the before and after (granted we were a little late in the season). Next comes the Tree Trimming. What a nightmare. We have roughly 40 green arborvitaes throughout our property and 2-3 small bushes. The contract clearly stated tree trimming and pruning. The cost was $495 which will were willing to pay since we have such a large number of trees. Over the winter 4 of our arborvitaes in the backyard experienced winter burn and need a little more trimming and pruning than the others. The crew came to our residence and simply trimmed and pruned the 4 damaged trees and 2 bushes and we still received a bill for $495. After inspecting the work we quickly came to realize that they mutilated the 4 trees. Not only did they trim but completely remove 3-4 trunks from each tree right at the base. We will be extremely lucky if they can make a recovery. When we informed the owner that only 4 trees and 2 bushes were cut he came to see the work done. He apologized and said he would resend his team. After careful consideration we decided against this and said we would not pay $495. He came back and said the new revise charge would be $250!!! How can you justify charging $250 which is half of the original estimate for 4 tress and 2 bushes. When I asked for an explanation he said that it was the minimum for sending out a crew to do the trimming. The total job took no more than 30 minutes. When we said we no longer needed his services they simply said they were sad to see us go and sorry we couldn’t come to an agreement. We should expect our last bill in the mail. By far one of the worst customer experiences I have had. To me this says they are simply happy with the business they have and don’t value new customers. I will never recommend them to anyone.

The regrading and mulching/planting of beds in the backyard went as planned. The repair of the brick patio looked good when it was completed last summer but since then a number of the bricks that were installed have buckled. Contractor refuses to repair the buckled portion of the patio without an additional charge, even though the portion that buckled was the portion he reset.
Description of Work: Regraded a portion of the backyard, installed beds and bushes and repaired brick patio by installing stone border and resetting bricks.

Response from Dinardi Landscape Design & Construction
Another contractor installed this patio. Dinardi was called upon to repair a section of buckled pavers. Re-doing the entire patio was recommended as we cannot guarantee work not performed by us. The other pavers shifted causing the pavers to buckel again after the repair was done. Offered to do again at the cost of labor only. [member name removed] felt he shouldn’t have to pay anything. *Note, if this section is repaired – odds are it will likely buckel again due to the shifting of the pavers on the rest of the patio.

I had a bad experience with them. I had complained to the owner, that I was billed for something, which I shouldn’t have been and that created the problem. They have another company and they also did some work. Eventually, they had billed both the jobs together. The problem is with the management, which lacks. I will never use their services in future.
Description of Work: I used the services of Dinardi Landscape Design & Construction for lawn maintenance, sometime in March or April, 2011.

Response from Dinardi Landscape Design & Construction
Member had asked the crew when on location to perform extra servcies that were not outlined in the contract/price agreement. When the office discovered extra services had been completed, they were billed out (for that particular time - not past instances) . The Memebr did not wish to pay for the extra servcies because the crew had been doing the extra work each time they came and hadn't been charged before.

He does my landscaping. I have been using him for a couple of years now. He has also been doing snow removal for me. His company charges me on the service. They charge me for what they do and when they do it. I have been using them on a weekly basis for snow removal. They charged $180 the last time I used them. I am happy that they are doing the work. I really like the crew that does landscaping for me; they are really good. The guys, who do the snow removal and landscaping work, are conscientious and they do a good job. I would continue to use them, but I might look for another service provider in the spring time.

The landscaping company did an excellent job. They came in and gave an estimate. They were very professional. They didn't have a problem when I called them before they were going to come and added something else. They called me ahead of time on two different phones to say that they were coming. They were not expensive. They did a great clean up and did not disturb the mulch underneath the bushes. I have a lot of bushes on my property and I live on a round corner. They charged me 75 dollars extra for the edging, which I thought was good. They were prompt in presenting the bill.
Description of Work: Dinardi Landscape Design & Construction came out and did the overgrown bushes on my one-acre property. They also did the edging on my sidewalks in front of my house and the sidewalk going down to the garage.
