    Frequently asked questions

    I will visit the site, either alone or via a meeting set up directly with the customer.  While there, I will get measurements, pictures, and make any suggestions that apply to the work the customer is looking for.  The pictures will then be sent to the customer so that we have something to refer to.  If necessary, a plan will be drawn (at no cost), accompanied by an estimate.  This information is emailed over altogether.  Any changes to the plan and/or estimate can then be fine-tuned on my end and a final estimate submitted.  Upon acceptance, the customer job will be scheduled accordingly.  All work is taken in the order it is received.

    35 years of on the job training, including a foreman of 25 years and the remainder of the crews for 10 to 15 years.

    Yes, all cleanup work (spring and fall), mulch installation work, and trimming/pruning work is done on a per man hour basis and includes all disposal costs.  Hardscapes (walls, walkways, patios, cobblestone installations, etc...) are priced according to the materials used.  These rates vary depending upon the customer's material selection.  Maintenance services such as fertilization and lawn mowing are done at a fixed rate which is determined prior to the srart of work.

    As a source of income to get through college in the mid 80's.  It snowballed from there and is now my livlihood.

    Always ask for at least two referrals.

    Make sure the communication between the customer and the pro is always fluent.  

    Make sure communication between the foreman and the customer is always fluent.

    Always ask about hardscape work before landscaping.  Hardscapes are the foundation for the landscaping.  Grading work, plantings, lawn installations, and finish work are the last things that should be done.
