Description of Work: Company was hired for Fall cleanup of a perennial garden. It seemed as though they were more interested in finishing quickly than in doing a nice looking job. I had to ask separately for them to do a final edging around the garden which seemed like that should have been understood.
Rating CategoryRating out of 5

Response from Little Rest Landscaping
We always work quickly and efficiently. That's the only way to make a profit in this business. Emphasis on efficient. As for the edging, that was never discussed and it is never assumed. [Member Name Removed] should have mentioned that as part of the job, but he did not. not. Sorry for the misunderstanding! I guess we have to chalk this up to miscommunication.

This was a lawn which we dethatched and treated with preemergent crabgrass preventer, lime, and fertilizer. It was a small yard with many obstacles and tight corners. I don't think we could have priced it any lower without losing money. The lawn has since responded beautifully. Glad we could help!

This was a big yard in need of cleanup and overseeding. It took a lot of effort and time, but I'm glad we pleased the client. It was a pleasure working for him.

It was a pleasure working for [Member name removed]. Aeration is one of the single best things you can do for your lawn, and it's totally organic and non-toxic. I look forward to working for you again in the future, doing fall or spring cleanups, mowing, and/or fertilizing. Thanks for the great review!

Thanks for that review and the recent referral! The yard was truly overgrown and overdue for a cut when we first did it, and there were a lot of sticks and branches lurking in the high grass, as well as a large steel pry bar. Fortunately we found and removed most of those hazards before we started mowing! After doing a double/triple cut to make the yard look good, we've been mowing on a weekly basis, and it looks Great, if I do say so myself! Thanks for the business and I look forward to doing more work there to improve the property.

My only complaint is that It would have been easier if the information on Angie's List included areas covered, and not covered.
Description of Work: Turned out that my home is outside his service area. He followed up with me to make sure that Angie's List had refunded the advance I paid--and they had.

I wish i could service Warwick, but I am just a small operation, 2 trucks and 3 or 4 employees, depending on the time of year. As such, I concentrate my efforts in South KIngstown and Narragansett. I have some business in Saunderstown, but that's about it. Sorry!

Phil did a fantastic job with cleaning up my yard for the spring. He was professional, courteous, and prompt. He showed up when he said he would, and did the job that I asked him to do extremely well. I would definitely call Phil back.

I'm happy that you liked my work, and I really appreciate your kind words. Your property is one of the most unique and wonderful yards I have seen in the area, and it was a bit of a challenge, but that made it interesting and even a bit fun. I'm glad to have helped it recover from such a long nasty winter. I hope we can work together again! Thanks.

He is very responsive. He comes when he says he will come. He is work with what I want. If didn’t want pesticides, he is cool with that. He cleans up after himself and he is fast. His prices are very reasonable. He is not that knowledgeable on plants and stuff. I wouldn’t let him trim or cut my shrubs.
Description of Work: Little Rest Landscaping did the term cleanup for me. He does our lawn maintenance like cutting and trimming. He puts fertilizer and all. He does aerating and seeding.

I appreciate that [member name removed] gave me such a great review. I've been working on her property for years now. I have one little bone to pick though. She says I'm not too knowledgeable about plants and would not let me prune her shrubs. I must say that I have been pruning and trimming shrubs for over twenty years and no one has ever complained about my work. In fact, most customers have me return year after year to tend to their hedges, shrubs, etc. I don't claim to be a master gardener like [member name removed], but I know how to prune shrubs!
