Would Like to give this Business 0 stars. Agreed to estimate for a low retaining wall and grading and fixing part of a path behind my house. I expressed my need to get this done as quickly as possible at the time of the estimate. Sent him a check deposit the end of MARCH , 2023. Needed this work done urgently as my 87YO Mother has difficulty walking on the uneven ground. The check was deposited and I received a message that the work would be scheduled in a week or so. No one answers the phone at this business. No one calls back. But the check deposit was cashed. Now, here it is almost JULY, 2023. No work has been done. No work scheduled. after a few promises of it being a few weeks away for scheduling, no contact at all. I'm about to file a small claims suit, because my money is not being returned either.

A number of the arborvitaes had brown areas that I was told came from the delivery process and would be gone by the next season. The brown areas never did go away and started to increase on some of the arborvitaes. I went through a number of months of contacting them and waiting quite some time to hear back from them. They did finally come by and look at the arborvitaes. Several times I was told that I would be contacted by them at a time when they could come an resolve the issue and basically I never heard from them again either time. Right now I'm looking for someone to replace the arborvitaes with something different.
Description of Work: replaced 9 emerald green arborvitaes.

I got an estimate, then needed to use the estimate to get reimbursed by the insurance company. When I got the insurance company check, I called Eric back twice, but he never returned my call. I left a message saying: If you are too busy, please let me know so that I can hire someone else. No response. I consider that type of behavior very unprofessional. Based on that I would not hire him.

We signed on the contract on May 3rd and he said it would take about 4 weeks with a completion date on or around June 18th. There were delays and they didn't come to do the work until July 8th. Eric didn't keep me updated on the delays so I was in the dark about when the start date would be. He brought a crew out. I didn't feel like the crew worked as hard when he wasn't there as they did when he was present. They completed the work but a couple weeks later, I noticed that the sod wasn't doing well. I called and he was able to come back once and I showed him where there was crab grass growing. I purchased bluegrass and he did suggest a lawn treatment company to treat the new sod. There are spots throughout the lawn where it is dead even though it's watered on a regular basis and there are holes throughout as well. I have attempted to contact Eric several times over the last 3 weeks via phone and he has never responded. I went to the address listed on his proposal and he doesn't live there. I believe it was a relative. He called Eric and informed me that I had been calling the wrong number. Eric provided his cell number which he is still not answering or returning messages.

Response from Precision Landscape Contractors
Customer cancelled job and requested her deposit back. We apologized for the slight delay and refunded her deposit on 6/15/13 for $500.00 chk#2543. A few days later customer called back and asked if we could still do the job, which we began on 6/29/13. The job was completed a week later because customer had sprinklers installed after yard was prepared for sod. At the signing of the job it was explained to the customer that sod isn’t guaranteed and it would be her responsibility caring for the lawn. Customer contacted us and said the lawn wasn’t doing well. Upon inspection we noticed a few spots with crabgrass, but overall the lawn was nearly perfect. We recommended to her, as we do all our sod customers, to contact a lawn treatment company to care for the lawn. Perhaps [member name removed] is still upset about the slight delay, but at this point we consider the issue closed and no refund will be made. Thank you

I spoke with a representative from Precision Landscaping on approximately 8/23/13 inquiring about a estimate for some work I needed done on my patio . We scheduled a date of 8/28 at 10 AM , at 11 AM they still had not shown up .I called at this time to see if they would be stopping by and left a message explaining I had taken off of work to meet with them and if they could call me back letting me if they are stopping by or not. Not only did they never show up but did not even have the decency to return my phone call . If this is how they treat there customers when there trying to get your business I would hate to see how they act once they have your money . I feel this company lacks professionalism and would find somebody else to use

I had a deadline and was concerned about having all of this work done prior to that. Eric, one of the owners, assured me the work would be done in 5 days which was a week ahead of my deadline. They had to start by moving a hot tub off the patio and then later reconnected it. Trees were removed, stumps ground. The crew arrived on time every day and worked late to stay on target. Owners Eric or Nick were on site several times a day every day. When I had a question about the patio design, the crew called the owners and one of them came over right away to address my question. The old patio took longer to remove than Eric expected and one day it rained so bad they had to stop working by noon. Even then, they stayed very late on the last day to finish. My yard looks bigger and more beautiful than ever. I plan to use them again to work on the front of my house next. By the way, I found them on Angie's List.
Description of Work: Redesigned my back yard. Took out old concrete patio, removed 3 dead trees, designed and installed new paver patio, fixed retaining wall, redesigned and added plants to an existing plant bed, mulched all flower beds and trees, replaced all grass with sod.

Eric was very responsive to all calls, came when he said he would, drew up diagram for requested work and work to be done in the future. Did not hard sell. Came to pickup trees and shrubs pulled out by another contractor in preparation for his work. Although scheduled for weeks later, had an opening and fit us in earlier as requested. Work was neat, quick, and just what we wanted. Will definitely use him for the remaining outdoor projects.
Description of Work: Cleared area, planted and mulched 2 beds, cleared another area and mulched.

Found Precision Landscaping on Angie's List. Met with Eric and discussed with him our 'must do list ' and 'wish list.' Eric has a real gift to incorporate beauty, placement, and design for his clients. His designs are unique and 'flowing;' not the usual boxy look for back yards. He is open to 'recycling' materials as appropriate and mindful of budget and needs.(ie, used small red stones for base in serenity zone.) Eric's solutions to our run off and drainage issues were accurate and complete. He installed 2 new drainage systems for pool and rain run off; and agreed a retaining wall was a permanent solution to the problem in one area of the yard. He worked in every thing on our 'must do list' and our 'zen zone' from the wish list. All for the initial budget of $9,000. Eric informed us of the choices for pavers that were in budget. We choose a more expensive paver to co-ordinate with the existing brick on our older house. We added a stone sitting bench / wall to the 'serenity zone.' We thought this was necessary as there was a slight drop-off from the patio due to the slope in our yard. Thus the budget increased -our choice. And Eric was right on in the placement of the bench / wall. Eric and his team (9 total) arrived on 4/30 and completed the work on 5/3. The team worked well together and was respectful of our property. They did all the work as noted above. The shovels were moving, the saws buzzing from when they arrived at 8am till they left at 6:30pm. Their lunch break was less than an hour. It was amassive amount of work. Eric met with us every morning to review the work plan and answer questions . It is far better than we imagined! and we are enjoying our 'serenity zone. '
Description of Work: Overhauled backyard. Erosion and run off issues due to Hurricane Sandy. Have approximately 40 dergree slope in yard. Needed a retaining wall built. Privacy fence for pool was falling down with dying ivy -needed to be removed. Drainage issues from rain and pool. Water accumulated in back yard and pool area due to sloping. Trees and shrubs needed triming; flower beds needed weeding, mulch and edging. Irritating small red stones around house and pool area needed to be removed - cloggs pool system.- and replaced with larger river stones. Added paver patio area (aka 'Serenity Zone') under Ash tree.

Very satisfied wiht the overall work, professionalism and pricing for the job just completed. They showed up on time and the job was completed as promised . The owner Eric was on site at the beginning and end of each workday proving guidance and direction to the workers. The pricing was fair and included some new material that was notoffered by other bidders. We have discussed using this company for additional work next season.
Description of Work: Job consisted of power washing 1000 sq. ft. of pavers removing all of the old sand and bringing the pavers back to their original color. Lifting approximately 300 sq. ft of pavers and adding new stone wher it was needed and leveling all pavers around pool and other areas. New polymer composite dand was used to fill instead of plain sand.

Eric promptly returned my phone call and we setup an appointment for him to come over. He looked over the job and within a couple of days he had a plan made up and ready to show me. It was a good mix of hardscape and plantings I was pleased with the estimate and told him it was a go. When the workers arrived they where very methodical on how they were doing the work. They created a pile for old dirt and grass and a pile for new top soil and mulch. The whole job was done in a matter of two days. Now my front yard looks balanced with good shade.
Description of Work: My front yard needed a makeover. I painted my porch and now I needed landscaping to complete the job. I was also in desperate need of some shade as the sun would come over the house the front yard would start to bake and as the sun would set it would heat the house causing my air conditioner to work harder.

They were very easy to work with. Eric told us exactly when his crew was going to be at the house working. When there was an issue on the job, Eric came to us right away to explain the issue, the ramifications and his suggestion on how to proceed. (As a side note, the issues on the job were due to unexpected site conditions, such as uncovering a large tree stump below ground, and had nothing to do with Precision Landscape Contractors.). The job came out even better than I imagined it would. I am extremely happy and would highly recommend Precision Landscape Contractors to anyone. They did such a great job, we are asking them to give us a price for more work at our home.
Description of Work: Precision Landscape Contractors designed and installed a multi-level retaining wall and landscaping. Eric, one of the owners of the company, came over to look at the job site. He provided valuable comments related to drainage issues we were having and how we could fix them with a retaining wall that would be functional and aesthetically pleasing. Within a week, he came back to the house with a sketch and price. He went through the various block options, showed us a large binder full of previous projects he has completed and reviewed all of the plantings with us. He also came back and dropped off five different block samples so we could see the actual block we were choosing for the retaining wall.

I liked that they called and said that they were coming. The guy showed up on time. He was very friendly and very knowledgeable. He gave me an estimate before he left on the patio and he was going to call me back regarding the estimate for landscaping and he never did. I would probably not use their services again in the future.

The job took a little over a week to complete. It's amazing how much stone goes into a project of this size. After a horrible winter, there is only a single plant that will be replaced. Eric and his crew do a great job. I have used him several times in the past, and have never been disappointed with the work.
Description of Work: They removed old rotted railroad tie wall, and put up a decorative concrete block wall. The concept was presented to us with plans, and drawn model of not only the wall, but all of the plantings and trees that would be used. After discussions, a few minor changes were made to the original drawings and new ones drawn up for approval. Eric had some great ideas in his drawings. The end results were fantastic! Eric even wanted to use pictures of our yard to submit to the stone company for their cataloh.

They did a wonderful job. They finished the job on last Wednesday. I would highly recommend them. They were very good, conscientious, excellent and hard workers. Eric, the owner was very conscientious and good too. I paid a lot of money for the job. We had 3 quotes and they gave us the most economical way to do the work. My husband didn’t want mulch and so we had all stones put all over the yard. Eric even came back the next day once he was finished and brought extra loads of stones at no charge. He replaced the pavers in the front at no cost. He had to put extra pavers in the back, but he only charged for the labor and not for the pavers. The quality was excellent. I am very satisfied with him. He was an excellent worker. He was a very nice man and his company was nice as well. I would definitely use his services in the future too. Eric s a very clever landscape designer and has done a lot of commercial work. (Check out the Chili's on Rt. 35 North in Middletown, NJ.) He has a real organic feel for Nature and when he's done, it looks like it has always been there. I think Eric is actually a Hobbit because when he finished our front and back, it looked like a cosy manor in the Shire!
Description of Work: Precision Landscape Contractors did my front and back lawn on the 15th of November. They did paving too. They did the hardscaping and they put all new pavers down. They put retaining walls up, and put all kinds of stones all over the front and the back as well. The 30 year old RR ties in our front yard were close to collapse, so we had to rebuild them. Eric had done such an excellent job on our back yard that we called him in to completely redo our front lawn & porch area. Over a week, his crew tore out the rotted ties, repacked the soil, built new paver retaining walls and front steps, added a new planting area, took out rotted trees, added more pavers in the back yard & replaced our front lawn grass with river stones & plants. All the while, he was there to work with & supervise the crew to make certain they were doing the job properly. Eric is a real "hands on" manager & contractor!

Overall, it went extremely well. There are no don'ts to our experience. Eric's crew has been with him for over ten years. They are hard working and very attentive to detail such as leveling blocks and slate. One side of the wall holds beds of 20 roses. I was concerned that they could be damaged. The crew was very careful and cognizant of my concern; not one rose was lost. The bid was actually a bit less than $5K but when we saw how much work went into leveling our slate entry, we included a bit more in the final payment. Either Eric or his superintendant Nick stopped to check on the work off and on throughout the days here. Eric checked the job carefully when done.
Description of Work: 1.Removed rotted landscape timber retaining wall measuring approx 250 linear feet. Prepared area for installation of concrete retaining wall blocks; installed very successfully. 2. Picked up approx 75 24x24 slate patio; re-leveled base and carefully put slates back in place in perfect alignment w/ exact 1/2 in spacing. 3. Dug out and removed 3 huge Leyland cypresses that had overtaken space where planted.
