I am new to the area and Joe and his son responded immediately to my phone call. In fact, he went out of his way to come to my home on a holiday week-end to assess the job. He continues to care for my property on a regular basis. He always cleans the debris.

Joe is great. He's honest and doesn't BS you. he'll quote you a fair price, look to source materials as needed, or will happily work with you to pick up trees or mulch, from a different location if the price is better. He worked around out schedule, shows up every week, removes all lawn clippings, and pretty much does as he says with little fuss. I can't say enough how great he and his son are.
Description of Work: Joe mows my lawn and edges on a weekly basis. They also, have done a clean up, put down mulch and will remove leaves in the fall

Joe does an excellent job at manicuring my lawn. He comes by every week and quickly cuts the lawn, trims all the edges then cleans up with rake and leaf blower. His pricing is very fair. I've also used him for spring clean up and will use for fall clean up. He is also flexible in case I need him to come out on a different than usual day in case I have a party coming up and need an extra cleanup of the yard. Joe works hard, and does the job right. Can't ask for anything more.

First off, I really can't see how this company acquires and retains customers. I contacted Joe a couple of weeks ago to have him mulch a pretty sizable area in the front and back of my house. He was punctual the first visit, performed the necessary measurements and left indicating he would call me back with an estimate for his services. A day or so, he calls back and wants to remeasure - that's fine, so he comes back to remeasure and he goes on his way. It's a week later and after a few calls into Joe, I have yet to get a response. I even went on to mention that I needed to get this done in timely manner, but I guess for someone that lacks business savvy and professionalism that was missed. Please avoid this guy!

After another company canceled on me, I needed to find someone to come quickly. Unfortunately, everyone was busy and not able to come to me anytime soon. When I got in touch with Joe, I explained my situation and he said he would be able to come by the next day. When they came, I explained again that I needed this completed by Saturday and they said they would try to move people around. They came back later that day to mow and let me know that they would be able to come and finish the job the next day. Since there was extra mulch leftover, they didn't charge me for the mow. I can't believe Joe even answered, most companies I was leaving messages and didn't even get a call back. The companies that did call me back, the earliest I could've gotten someone would have been over a week later. On top of all of this, the price was great!

All we can say is WOW !! Joe was very prompt getting to us. When he came to the house he told us that it would take a week for him to get started if that was OK and it was. He came the day he said he would and did an OUTSTANDING job. He is a very nice, professional person who takes great pride in his work. We've been through a handful of landscapers and can truly say Joe Manzella Lawn is the best !! We'll be recomending Joe to family and friends. We look forward to having Joe with us forever :) Thank you Joe.

If you are looking to have your lawn mowed, he will do it for $25/hour. Aside from that, he will say he can do other things but really cannot. Cannot prune trees, cannot trim shrubs/hedges, and must repeatedly be reminded of what needs to be done. Did not really work out for me, but as stated, if you want just a basic lawn mower, he is your guy.

[member name removed] [member address removed] You're an interesting fellow. You had Joe run down to your property multiple times, including a Sunday, to have Joe cut and mulch yet you couldn't be bothered to pay him. Not the $77 dollars he laid out for the mulch, nor the labor. So he's out $200, but you've reported to Angie's list.

I called Joe about 9:30 am. I was told he would come out 5:00 pm and he did. He looked at the work that needed to be done in my front and backyard and gave me a very reasonable and affordable estimate for the job. He did a very thorough and complete job in about an hour. He was very friendly and personable. I told him he will be my and quot;go toand quot; lawn guy. I also showed him other yard work that needed to be done and he said to call him several days in advance and he would come out to do the job. I was very happy with his work.

His rates are very fair and he does not convince you to spend money on things you don't need done in your yard. Like he says, and quot;I work for YOU!and quot; He is honest and a pleasure to deal with.
Description of Work: Joe is GREAT! He gives great advice and does what he says he's going to do! Goes above and beyond. He did a spring clean up of leaves. Spread about 5 yards of river rock through my entire yard. ALso he is maintaining my grass and hedge. Everything is top notch. GO WITH JOE!

Joe made every effort to meet you last Saturday at 4 pm, but was unable to find your home. He also made an attempt to call you, but you had called from a restricted number, so he didn't have a way to reach you. He hoped you would call him back, but that didn't happen either. I hardly think that a misunderstanding warrants such a harsh review on Angie's list, but that is certainly your prerogative.

Joe is hardworking and thorough. He did a great job and we plan to have him back frequently for all our landscaping needs. Another plus is that Joe is very personable and easy to do business with. Thanks, Joe!

Joe Manzella has been maintaining my yard for over a year now. He is willing to do almost anything from just yard maintenance to pruning trees, reseeding lawns, even putting down mulch this year when I got lazy. If you ask him if he can do it - he shrugs and says sure. Next thing you know you come home from work and what you asked for is done. His price is incredibly reasonable - he should charge more. We love Joey!

Joe Manzella, the proprieter, is the nicest man you'd ever want to meet. His work is outstanding - nothing you ask of him is too much or too difficult. He is very responsive and works around my needs. My yard is rather small and very shaded, so it only needs to be cut every other week. Given the size of the yard, I didin't want to get locked into an expensive contract for more service than I need. Joe is wonderful - very flexible and adjusted his rates and times to fit exactly what I needed. I'm very grateful to him and am looking forward to spring - for the nice weather and to see Joe again! I would also add that due to all the tree in my yard, leaf removal is on-going process throughout the fall. Joe was great - he came multiple times to rake the yard and remove everything as the leaves kept falling.
Description of Work: Manzella Landscaping does my lawn maintenance throughout the year - cuts the lawn, shrub trimming, leaf removal, etc. He cuts the lawn every other week, blows away the clippings, etc. He also does a major yard clear up for me in the spring and fall.
