Don't bother.
Description of Work: Aaron refused to provide an estimate to me because I did not pay $200 for a canned landscape design that was sent to me in the mail which did not solicit any input on my behalf. This was after I had hired and paid the company to perform a front yard clean up project to remove bamboo and ivy from our newly acquired home in Del Ray. What he failed to do was his due diligence. I was interested in meeting with a landscape designer and providing input to put together a design for our entire yard. Instead, Aaron wanted his $200 fee for something a 5 year old could have produced. How many others have been sent (not even handed) the same design with the $200 price tag??? Sorry Aaron, but you no longer deserve my business and I give you and your company an F for professionalism. From: Info [mailto:info@greenersidellc.com] Sent: Friday, August 31, 2012 1:19 PM Hi Nancy Unfortunately Aaron would prefer to not provide you an estimate for the described work listed below. After meeting with you a couple of years ago and providing a landscape design drawing, for which you were billed $200, and never paid, he is not inclined to try again. Thank you Debbie

Response from The Greener Side Lawn & Landscaping LLC
We were completely unaware of how dissatisfied this customer was. At the time (nearly 5 years ago) we did not offer design services in house and contracted an outside designer to provide this service. After mailing invoices a number of times and receiving no response, we paid the professional designer for the design and considered the transaction a write off. We understand that occasionally designs do not hit the mark and need to be reworked or re-done; however, in this case we were never given the opportunity to make changes. During our most recent correspondence we did not ask for payment, we simply said we were not interested in providing an estimate for her project. I am comfortable with the way my company handled this situation. I believe other member reviews more accurately describe the type of business we run, and our commitment to our customers.

Working with the Greener Side team has been amazing. We moved into a house that needed major yard work; including removal of thick bamboo and the regrading of our water-collecting backyard. Aaron, the owner, was prompt and detailed oriented throughout the entire process. After the regrading of the back yard, Aaron and his team placed sod down, put up barriers for the bamboo not to come into our yard, and mulched around the trees and shed. The front yard was an equal mess before Aaron and his team came in. We had a lawn of ivy in the front and side yards, which is now covered with beautiful trees, bushes, flowers, and mulch. They also installed new pavers which brings us from the driveway to the back yard. We are so excited about the way our home looks and highly recommend using the Greener Side for any landscaping needs.

Unreal. We've been with this company for about 7 years, and I can't believe they're not already on Angie's List with rave reviews. Aaron Gorski is always responsive, he is professional, pleasant, and his crew does the job and does it right. The Greener Side has provided us with both lawn services as far as cutting the lawn weekly in the Summer, and has also done a complete landscape of our property in the past. They have also cleared our sidewalk and front walk of snow, raked leaves in the Fall (they have the schedule for leaf pick-up, and they do it just before each one), and cleaned gutters. They now offer lawn treatment services as well. The Greener Side is a solid company with a great crew of guys who are always courteous and clearly hard working. We recommend them without hesitation if you're looking for a lawn care service or landscaping for your home.
Description of Work: Spring clean-up, sprucing up the plant beds, clearing out old/dead bushes, cutting back plants as needed, mulching all beds.
