Better than I could have possibly hoped. Ahead of schedule, thorough, meticulous, more than fair pricing and an incredibly classy, polite crew. These guys are truly a breath of fresh air compared to most contractors I've had to deal with in the past. I wish they did more than landscaping and plowing. I'd hire them for EVERY job around here!

Tyler and his crew were very professional from initial contact through to completion. Tyler offered several excellent recommendations and was willing to incorporate some blocks we had left over from a previous project. He also added a catch basin that significantly improves our drainage. We would highly recommend them.

These guys are the absolute GOLD standard for contractors: professional, punctual, HONEST, efficient, attention to detail, hard-working- you name it.
Description of Work: They've done various small jobs for us over the years, the most recent being some gravel replacement in our driveway. I don't remember the exact price but I know it was fair for the job. They've also done some sod removal for our flower beds.

We have used Dabs Landscaping over the years for various tree, shrub and mulch work. Every experience has been extremely positive. Tyler, Terri and their team are professional and highly competent. They return calls within a timely fashion, give you an honest quote and then come to do the job on time. They get the job done, as promised, efficiently and quickly. In addition, they clean up, so you don't even know they were in the yard. We look forward to using them again in the future. They are a pleasure to know and to work with.

Very pleased with the entire process. I had contacted them and they showed up at the correct time and looked over the entire project. Proved a detailed estimate. When I contacted them to start work they had to wait for our property to dry out, but kept in contact with us until conditions were right. Show up on the day they said and went right to work. Project took two days but the results were more then we expected. Overall a great job.

Tyler is great. Called last year for a bigger project and he was booked solid. But we were able to break it down into a series of smaller projects which we began last fall and will finish later this spring. He is very professional and shows up when he says he is going to, gives spot on estimates and completes work in a timely manner.

They did everything they said they were going to do and more. Very honest hard working guys. They showed up when they said they would and completed the project to my 100 percent satisfaction. They were very creative and I still recieve nothing but compliments on my house. They spent a lot of time with my wife and I on the design and layout. This is the company you need to hire!
Description of Work: These guys are simply that best! I built my dream home in 2008 and decided to interview 5 different landscaping companies to do a very extensive project. I hired the Dab brothers and have nothing but praise. They put in many retaining walls, over 7 landscaping beds, laid sod and did the complete landscaping design for my 3 acre lot.

EXCELLENT! Terry and his team of expert landscapers arrive promptly at 7:00 AM (as promised), began working immediately and, except for a brief and well-deserved pizza lunch break and continued with this extensive project until 4:00 PM. This business team of landscapers were professional, polite, responsive, effective, efficient and very mindful of neatness. We simply LOVE the finished project (many neighbors passing by offered very complimentary remarks!) and would highly recommend DABs Landscaping without reservation. Obviously, we are completely satisfied with their excellent performance in every way.
Description of Work: Removed more than a dozen 30-year old shrubs, a dead Dogwood tree, cut back and pruned a large 25-year old Crab-apple tree, pruned & topped a dozen 15-foot Arborvitaes, installed over a dozen new replacement shrubs with variety of height, shapes & colors, planted one beautiful Japanese Maple tree, placed two large boulders, re-cut & shaped approximately 75 linear feet of contoured edging and applied adequate natural dark-colored mulch througout.

We are satisfied with an appearance of the front step now .
Description of Work: The front step of the entrance was replaced by new Versolok and new pavers. The job was done as scheduled and Terry and his assistant were very professional. The replaced area looks good now. The price of the project was similar to other estimates.

Tyler came to our house in mid-April or May and assessed the problems we were having with an area along our concrete pad that was washing out. We had already gotten two other estimates for company's. One was priced over $5000 and the other was priced at $1,200. Neither company before gave us any other option but to install very expensive pavers. Both company's wanted to leave the sod down and use chemicals to kill all the grass prior to putting down the #3 river rock. We weren't excited about the chemicals to be used with both kids and small animals in the yard. Tyler was very professional, he actually gave us a great idea to move our deck stairs and just grade with topsoil the area where we were having difficulty, instead of installing the very expensive pavers. He told us, " I can take your money but if this were my house, I would do this." We loved his idea! They told us they would be starting approx. mid July--they were right on with their estimate, showed up with 6 guys, got to work and were done in a day! We are extremely happy with the work and plan on hiring them in the future to start a project on our front lawn.
Description of Work: Strip sod from around our entire above ground pool, under our pool deck and around our concrete patio approx. 2ft-3ft wide in some places. Install commercial grade weed barrier fabric. Then # 3 river rock around the entire area. Install masonry edger's along part of the river rock edge and also created a small perennial bed with #3 rock and masonry edge. Also graded small area along lip of concrete pad with topsoil.

Could not have been better! I have hired these folks in the past for landscaping needs. Last year they helped locate a person to clean out an overgrown rock garden! I have also purchased Japanese Maples from them. Respect, honesty and courtesy keep me coming back! They deliver when they say they will. They assist in problem solving. Their pricing is beyond fair!

Terry and Tyler were professional from the start and did a really nice job dealing with a very tough situation. We had a flood situation in the back of our yard and by re-grading and rebuilding the lawn and angling everything back so the water flows away from our home, we have a much better situation. They were very thoughtful about everything they did and completed the work in a very short time frame. We're planning on hiring them again this coming spring for additional yardwork.
Description of Work: Removed large pile of dirt, excavated old raised garden and overgrowth, levelled lawn and put down sod. Also rebuild a pathway with new pavers.

I contacted 5 different Landscapers/Hardscapers listed on Angie's List. 4 of the 5 companies I contacted gave us "estimates" that consisted of writing a dollar amount on the back of their business cards. No details on what they were charging for. The only one to give us a detailed estimate and explanation of what they were going to do was Dabs Landscaping Hardscaping, Inc. Tyler gave us 3 different estimates in writing on what he was planning on doing. This included removing the existing pavement and installing rebar, etc to ensure the new walkway would be stable. We made our choice and he worked closely with us to match existing bricks/pavers with the new ones he was installing. The job was done in a timely and professional manner. His crew was in and out seamlessly. Everything was cleaned up, swept up and hauled away after each days work was completed. The walkway did not disturb the existing landscaping and meets the driveway without any change in pitch. While removing the old walk, they discovered some problems with the cinderblock foundation of our house. They repaired the damage and replaced a threshold that was also problematic. The end result is an entrance and front step that exceeded our expectation! I would gladly recommend Dabs to anyone needing work done.
Description of Work: We had a cracked cement front walkway and a semicircular step in front of our house. It needed to be replaced completely. We were uncertain if we wanted another cement walkway or a walkway constructed of pavers. The walkway had to be installed next to a border of existing hedge and extended to our driveway.

I called and left a message. about 2 days later the company called me back. We made an appointment for a Tuesday evening but they canceled it that Tuesday afternoon. They were proffesional and pleasant over the phone and they seem to have flexible hours but at this point I will try to look for someone else.

They knew we were anxious to complete the lengthy process of putting our pool in. Whenever they could start a part of the landscaping, (digging the beds out) they would come and complete that until they were able to do plantings and mulch. Their work was beautiful and they instructed us how to care for the new plantings. We also had them put in sod which came out great. They also guarantee the plants for a year and called late in the season to see how the plants were doing and if they needed replacing.
Description of Work: We used Dabs for our pool landscaping. They were very punctual and were always in touch with us regarding what phase we were in the construction. They were very flexible and the owners Tyler and Terry worked along with their crew. We were so happy with them, we are having them do more landscaping this year. I can't say a bad thing about them.

Great job. Very responsive in getting me an estimate, and in delivering and grading the topsoil. We had recently had a propane tank delivered, and the guys from Dabs lifted up the tank and graded the topsoil under it - above and beyond what they had contracted to do. I would definitely hire them again.

This experience went very well. We were taken to several locations where Dab's had done work previously, and really liked what we saw. We had been considering using wood or polymer decking material, but the quality of the work that they had done sold us on going with stone. They gave us a detailed free estimate and were exremely courteous throughout the job. They arrived on time every time even though they had to work around the weather. They cleaned up all debris and left everything in very good shape. They were extremely pleasant to work with, and we have used them several times since on other projects. Their crew was knowledgeable and worked independently if one of the owners was not present.
Description of Work: Removed existing surface for large outdoor patio area and small front walkway. Added subsoil, packed subsoil, and installed pavers. Added outdoor stone steps to four sliding glass doors in Florida room. Removed existing turf and Installed weed liner, topsoil, and several flowing plants in "trouble areas" of yard. Re-seeded areas that were left grassed.
