I have never had such a horrific experience working with a contractor in my life. He did exactly what I pointed out before I signed the contact that I did not want him to do if I hired him. I told him I wanted him there on the job everyday to supervise, they were there for almost 1 month and he showed up about 4 times in total including the day for the final payment. When he did show up he would just scream at his employees for doing such a crappy job and making such a huge mess and then he would leave without even talking to me. I told him I wanted quality plants nothing bought at Lowes or Home Depot, I saw his workers at Lowes picking up my bushes and then bringing them to my house. He never cut down the trees, but tried to charge me for them, The edging looked like a dog chewed around the beds. They cut my spinkler line while digging for the patio, which is all uneven and stones are coming up not even a year after it was complete, They never set the stones with sand. He refused to re do any of the work and got into a heated argument with myself and my husband in our front yard. He never returns calls! If you hire him, you will be disappointed - He will not guarantee his work, but I will guarantee you will be disappointed.
Description of Work: We hired Jim Mangin to do a complete landscape overhaul for us. The contract was to remove 3 trees, about 75% of the existing landscape and replace with new bushes, trees etc..., edge, and build an omni stone patio.

I was 100% percent pleased with the landscaping that Jim and his crew did in our yard. He was helpful in providing composite photos of what the area would look like prior to beginning the work and was also helpful and knowledgeable when helping us to select plants, shrubs, trees, mulch, etc. I did have one tree that died, however, and it took a very long time (several months) for Jim to come back to rectify the problem, but once he came back, he not only replaced the tree, but also planted three new perennials in the landscaping at no cost.
Description of Work: Built retaining wall with French drain on street side of front yard. Completely landscaped front yard area abutting house on either side of walk where massive hemlock trees had been cut down. Planted two trees, shrubs, and perennials, and mulched the entire area. Also planted grass seed in patchy areas of front yard.
