Kane Landscapes Inc

Josh has been terrific. He is very responsive and easy to work with. We have just finalized the plans. We will be working on pricing and then will proceed with the project. Angie's List wanted a review even though the project has not even started which is very annoying. There is no way to indicate that we are not finished. Is this something you can add to your email notifications. I will update this when it's completed.

They're extremely good. They were expensive but very very good. They do it weekly for me. They've also done major projects too. They took care of the beds too but that's not really the hard ones to get it going. They're very good at diagnosing problems and treating them. They don't just mow. They look at what they were doing.

They are a very good reliable company. I would highly recommend them. They come with a truck it is whole operation.

Kane did all work required in a professional manner and was available for any corrective needs. highly recommend and plan to use for future projects.

I have been extremely impressed by the professionalism by Kane Landscapes. When I initially hired them to re-landscape my yard they came to provide a completive quote with photos, and CAD drawings, which were reviewed with me in person. The designer explained all of the plants and what would be best for our yard (given the deer). She also made several modifications based on my budget (with new walkway, new leveling, and other landscaping options) along with a detailed breakout of the cost so that I could easily see what fit in my budget and select based on that. Kane even staked a tree that was planted by another provider the year prior that was starting to lean. The work was done according to plan and they even were able to accommodate my request to get on the schedule earlier as we were having guests over and we wanted to have the yard look nice. About 6 months later, one of the trees they planted started to lose all its leave so I contacted Kane to come take a look. Joe came out and assessed everything, applied some food, and said he'd come back to check everything after winter. Early in the Spring I Kane come out to give us a quote for a Spring cleanup. It was competitive but we had to pass as we had plans to put in a French Drain and it wasn't in our budget to do both the cleanup/mulching and french drain. I told Joe of this and that is why we wouldn't be using them for the Spring cleanup. Joe asked if he could also quote for the job for the French Drain since this was something they worked on (I wasn't aware of). While he came out to quote us het said the tree needed to be replaced. Joe provided a better solution for our drainage issue at a lower cost and we hired them to do the job. The workers are all very professional - they are very meticulous and cleaned up the job. They were on site for over 8 hours and were working very hard. They laid new mulch over any areas they worked on. When installing the french drain they accidentally damaged one of our sprinkler heads (the landscaper came to us and told us, along with the site manager) and Joe came out to fix the issue. A week after the drain was installed we had a large rainfall. Joe came out again, on his own, to check and see how things were going. He came to the conclusion that some things could be modified and had his crew come back (no charge) to fix some items. He also replaced the tree and another shrub that was planted a year prior as it was not thriving. All in all, Kane has visited my house over 6 or 7 occasions for two separate jobs. The work they have provided was completive and met my requirements/budget. The managers/designers along with the landscapers were all very professional and very responsive. I have been extremely happy with the work they have provided and will continue to recommend them to others.

I was absolutely thrilled with their competence and the work they did. The price was steep so I bailed for 2014 and already regret my decision after the FIRST visit by the new company I picked. Update: That is a real understatement. I HATE the landscaping company I picked and have no idea why they get good ratings on Angie's List. Maybe they take care of commercial properties but they are doing a terrible job on my house. I am trying to get out of my contract and will surely lose money even if I can. I will write this off to my having made a really bad call. I have changed the previous "C" rating for cost to an "A" for this reason. ____________________________ I am saving $1,000 but I am certain that everything will stall during this year. I will gladly pay the additional price next year--you get what you pay for. Kane landscapes many properties in my neighborhood and has done some of them for years and years. These properties could be in House Beautiful--the lawns look like lush, green carpets. I doubt mine will ever look like that because the previous owner did NOTHING to take care of the lawn (an exaggeration in terms). But it will get better. I never felt like I had to look out the window to see what Kane was doing and how well they were doing it. Not so with the company I am using this year. My backyard has a steep downhill slope into a FFX park which is a site for occasional litter. I never asked Kane workers to pick up litter. They did this automatically. I asked the head of the new crew (2014) to do that for me with a piece of trash and he acted put out. (I'm not too picky--the backyard/view from my living room "makes" my house and trash is quite visible. Otherwise it wouldn't matter. Even as I look at it now, there is an old plastic flower pot down there.) UPDATE: The mowing this year is erratic as is the mow height. My yard looks like it has gotten a bad haircut every time. Weeds are jumping up in my front yard and the man who I signed the contract with told me to buy a can of Round Up. I have two cats. Round Up kills grass as well as weeds and is harmful to pets. Kane weeds with each mowing--these people don't. The crew doing the spring clean-up for my house this year took HOURS, much of which was spent talking, leaning against the truck, wasting time, etc. You will never see Kane's workers doing that. No breaks--they do their work and move on. You will be very pleased with Kane.

They are absolutely wonderful. Their customer service is outstanding, they are very responsive. Anytime we call with questions or do an additional project. The people that come to do the weekly mowing are very courteous and do an excellent job. I think their pricing is very fair considering the outstanding service. They are on par in pricing with everyone else but the customer service is better.

Great experience. Had two meetings with landscaper designer. Agreed to plans and price. Signed contract. Immediately heard from project supervisor to schedule work. Very responsive. Excellent communication during entire project from initial contact to completion. In addition to availability by phone and in person, both designer and project supervisor communicated by email. I was always aware of status or planned activities. Work started when they said it would and was completed on time. Crew was exceptional. Arrived at 8am and worked til 5:30 and two evenings until 6:30 and 7:30pm. Overall, three-person crew was at my home for 4.5 days. Cleaned up each evening. Very flexible during project regarding small items. Did more than than expected when they weeded bed along driveway that was not part of project. Work was performed to my expectations and beyond. I can not imagine being happier with project and would HIGHLY recommend Kane to others. I will use them again. Great work, reliable staff, and excellent communications. Designer and project supervisor and I were all on email regarding entire project. Often emails came in late at night regarding plans for next day. These guys were working!

The maintenance is different from the projects. Their price is reasonable. They are very responsive and professional. They do high-quality work; they do really good work. Their management teams are all very well-trained in landscaping architecture and horticulture.

We have had them for 25 years. They are very reliable and show and do their job.

Several people in our neighborhood use their services also, and that is how we heard of them. They are very dependable. We will continue to use their services in the future.

It was an outstanding experience. We were already more than satisfied with our experience with Kane Landscaping doing our weekly maintenance. We have a contact whom we can call for any question, and who answers the same day. We asked him for someone to design a project for us; the next day a young woman came and studied and measured the area to be restored. Several days later she presented a beautiful project. Our questions were answered in detail and with additional pictures of suggested plant material. It was quickly approved, and the work began and was completed in a timely and most professional way. The designer and the project head both kept in contact with us by e-mail, telling us when to expect workers. It looks wonderful, and is a very high-quality job. I can't recommend them highly enough. We didn't get competing bids for the job because we already knew we liked dealing with the company, but the cost seemed fair for the work and excellent materials supplied.

My husband did all the business and interaction with this company, except for one afternoon when they called--and he was not home to speak with them. It is this occasion to which I refer. Bless their hearts, I just don't understand. Being new to landscaping professionals wasn't good for me that day, nor for them. I am still so sorry for the upset. The problem was, the plants they'd put in to our front and back yards kept needing replacing. Several of them died. I still don't understand. But the upshot is, they didn't understand why I was so upset that they felt a one year time limit for replacing dead plants was appropriate. Well, dear Mr. Kane did relent and did have the front door planting replaced even though it had again turned brown and ugly after having been replanted once. He did not have to do the soil test we spoke of. The new plant seems to be thriving, thank goodness. And the yards are indeed beautiful again. Next time we hire contractors, I think we will be more careful about any who specify time limits on accountbility.

We started talking to Kane Landscape about building a pool and patio and landscaping, but in the end for budget reasons, we didn't do the pool. From day 1, Josh Kane (owner/designer) was excellent to work with. Very professional, responsive, creative. he listened to what we wanted in the backyard, and came back with great designs. We were impressed with how much time he spent with us during the design phase without charging us (we didn't get to keep the design, but he did one and reviewed it with us... unlike many others who wanted to charge us $$$ to do a design). He was very patient with us (it took us over 6 months to finally sign a contract). I loved that he uses email to do most of his communications, but was available by phone or to meet at our house whenever we needed to talk in person. He constantly checked in with us or gave us updates on schedules and project progress. After they started to dig and prepare the space for the seating wall, we wanted to increase the size of the patio. Josh quickly redesigned the plans, sent it to us for approval along with change order the next morning, and we were on our way. His team, Alvador and Ronnie, worked hard, were here every day at 7:45 am until 5 or 6 in the evening installing pavers and landscaping. They worked continuously, quickly, and cleaned up every day. Alvador spoke English well enough to communicate the project details for the day, ask and answer questions as needed. They seemed to really enjoy their work and take pride in doing it well. They subbed out the masonry work (flagstone repairs and seatin wall) to JP Masonry. The sub they used did fine work, but were not as neat, punctual or able to communicate as well as the Kane employees. This is not a complaint, but just it was a striking difference between the two. Josh was out to check on the work, and was hands on during the landscape intallation, planning out which plants would go where. This was great because when the masonry put the wrong stone cap on the seating wall, Josh brought it up before I could point it out to him, and he had the masons back out to replace it in a few days. It was a pleasure to work with Josh Kane and his team. I have already recommended him to several neighbors, and will work with him again on future projects.

They care all the yard work. They do a good job, so far so good. I would recommand them to others.

I have been using them for the past 2yrs and have been extremely happy with their service. I recommend them to anyone looking to get landscape work

Excellent customer service, professional and prompt on-site landscaping work, easy billing, and reasonable rates. They offer several plans and do not try to force you into anything. They give you all the options that you may want/need and you select what you want. I've used them for about 2.5 months now, but have the service for the year.

They worked with us through the design process. They were and still are very responsive to our questions. The work was done beautifully and the workers were professional and courteous. We have received many compliments on the wall, patio, and landscaping. I called 3 other landscapers and only Kane responded. I highly recommend them to anyone.

It was good working with them. This was the first time I had used this company and I was pleased with the work they did. They included me in the design process, they listened to what I wanted and went from there.

The quality of work I received from them was fantastic. Since they did such an excellent job and I am planning on having them do more. They give free estimates and I considered their cost to be very reasonable and well worth it. They were very responsive to any issues that I had also. I highly recommend them.

We are happy with the job. The cost was very reasonable compared to what the pool companies estimated. We were glad we stayed on top of the workers because the pool walls might have been buried (rather than removed and hauled away as the contract stipulated) had we not been around to direct that.
