JT and crew did a great job with our front retaining wall, walkway, front porch and steps, small patio in the back, and the landscaping lights. JT made good suggestions and we were very pleased with the final outcome. The crew was on time and very efficient. We always prefer working with local small businesses and it has been great to see JT nurture and grow his business in the area over the last 12+ years. Good to see entrepreneurs doing right and doing well! read more

JT's Lawn & Landscaping - Nicely done! - Lawn Services Near Me - Raritan, New Jersey

I was in urgent need of lawn care in very limited timeframe. JT's team was able to not only accommodate us for the urgent cut that was requested, but they were able to provide full service which we had assured them we didn't need given our short notice to them. They showed the utmost professionalism, top notch service, and truly great value! Our lawn still looks great even after days of heavy rain. Looking forward to more services from the team. read more

JT answers the phone, takes care of his customers and leaves things so much better than he found them. Will use him over and over again!!

We hired JT's to refresh a paver patio and walkway. "Refresh" is an understatement; what Jim and his team delivered is a (seemingly) new landscape, all using existing materials. Excellent value. Prompt, clean, polite, and efficient are appropriate descriptions of the crew. They don't move onto their next job until yours is completed to your satisfaction. Highly recommended and will consider them for any future needs. read more

We found JT off a Facebook post where he came highly recommended by others in our area and gave him a call. When he showed up for the initial estimate, we could tell he was very knowledgeable in his field and had the answers for all of our questions and then some. He and his crew built us a beautiful backyard patio, redid our front walkway and steps, fixed the drainage in our yard, and leveled out the bumpy spots throughout our front and back yards extremely quickly and for very reasonable pricing. 10/10 would definitely recommend calling and using his services to everyone in the area. We will definitely be call back for any future projects we are doing in the future. read more

We were very pleased with JT's work, replacing an old patio and walkway with new paver stones as well as tearing up old shrubs and replacing them with new deer-resistant bushes and long-lasting stones rather than mulch. What a difference! His workers were very competent, friendly and eager to please. They did an excellent job of cleaning up as well. read more

Paid to have boards replaced and secured, a new railing and for the deck to be stained. This is how it was left. A year out and the owner keeps saying he will fix it then disappears. If you are ok with this level of workmanship they definitely got it done fast. If you were hoping for more I'd look elsewhere. read more

JT's Lawn & Landscaping - Picture speaks for itself. This is the condition my deck was left in. - Lawn Services Near Me - Raritan, New Jersey

Our outdoor projects were just completed by JT and his crew and we are very happy with the job that they have done. The projects included replacement and extension of existing concrete patio with pavers, leveling of the backyard, fixing the stairs to the patio, fixing the stairs to the front entrance, trimming of a tree and replacement of front path to sidewalk as well as to driveway. It was an extensive project and we didn't know quite to expect. I had posted in Somerville Community Facebook page for recommendations and JT came highly recommended. We contacted a couple of the suggestions and he was the most prompt and professional. He came to assess the situation and provided really good suggestions (different than we had initially thought). It made sense to do what he said and we appreciated the advice. He was not pushy, however, just spoke with conviction and promised we would be happy with the results. He provided an estimate with details and provided it quickly. When the work actually started, he brought his crew and they were great. They were hard working, detail oriented and took pride in their work. There was a lot going on at once but they stuck to the schedule (came early and stayed late). We made adjustments along the way and they were happy to oblige. We were very impressed by the scope of what they could do. The tree trimming was a last minute add because we didn't know they could do such a job. It's pretty clear that they have extensive experience by the ease in which they took on each project. The price was reasonable and it was completely worth it because they did the work in a short time (over the course of 3 weeks, 2 weeks of allowing materials to dry and 1 week of actual work). I am in a firm believer in "you get what you pay for" because of the quality of work, diligence and professionalism . I always look to see if the workers are happy and that is the sense I got with them. I would definitely recommend this company if you have outdoor projects. We thought we had some pretty odd requests and were pleasantly surprised at how they tackled them. read more

Jim's crew was professional and respectful. Very satisfied with spring clean up and removal of 2 trees.

JT Landscaping has been handling my rental property's landscaping in Drexel Hill for over 5 years now. The lawns get cut, the bill gets sent. The process has been seamless and simple throughout the years of doing business. FATS! read more

We highly recommend JT's business. We asked for an estimate for a new deck since ours was 20 years old. Very prompt response from Jim who provided a very reasonable estimate, with the understanding that the underpinnings of the deck did not need to be replaced. Unfortunately, once the top of the deck was removed it was obvious underneath was rotten wood. Jim went above and beyond in giving us new estimate for deck work, but then showed us another plan he had developed after looking at our backyard in case we wanted to do a patio instead of a deck, which would save money and allow for some other yard work to be included. The men who work with Jim are awesome. Prompt, friendly, cleaned up after themselves daily and very good at what they do. Jim was over almost daily either working or checking the progress. He's very easy to communicate with and had an excellent vision for our backyard. 100% recommend and would say to trust his vision and judgement. We love our new patio, walkway, steps, outdoor lighting and driveway and are going to use JT's for any other work we need done both outside and inside our home. read more

JT came through for me after the hurricane. I had 4 trees down and of course insurance covers next to nothing. Fence damaged and garage clipped as well His guys came today to remove the trees and worked on a very hot day to cut and remove these downed trees. 2 were very large. They cleaned up extremely well when complete and did no other damage to lawns I would definitely recommend him and his crew read more

We called JT's because we had an old paver stone pathway that needed repair or replacement. Jim from JT's is a visionary-- he not only provided several possible solutions for that problem, he also identified additional ways to enhance and improve our property during the project. Most important to my husband was improving the overall drainage and grading of the yard. Most important to me was improving the curb appeal and making the front of the home more welcoming. Jim designed a plan that ticked all of those boxes! His crew was friendly and respectful and left the yard clean when the work was complete. Very happy with our completed project. read more

JT's Lawn & Landscaping - New front path and plantings by JT's Lawn and Landscaping. - Lawn Services Near Me - Raritan, New Jersey

my basement was flooded earlier this year and we contacted a couple of vendors to make some remedies of our backyard water issues, Jame is extremely helpful when contacted him and he showed up next day and talked with us about the ways of how to fix the problem. We found his proposal is very professional and the price is reasonable, he came up with projects within our budget and started arranging the work next week before the next store arrived. we are happy with the work he has done and will recommend his service. Gang read more

Most of the work was satisfactory but it is still not finished and he doesn't return my phone calls. There is one stump yet to grind. He chose July 26 to grind the stumps, only 3 days after a 2" rainfall. He made terrible ruts in the lawn and still was not able to grind one of the stumps. On July 26, he asked for payment and promised to finish the job soon. With that promise, I paid him in full. I made the mistake of not holding back some money until the job was completed. That was 8 weeks ago and it has been dry enough for at least 7 weeks now. He still hasn't done all the work that I paid him for. read more

Very good price and JT's guys did great work. Very happy with the end result. Will definitely use again

"No show" for an appointment and then "no show" for the re-scheduled appointment. No phone calls or texts to alert me to the fact that there would be an unexpected delay; no return phone call or text after missed appointment. Extremely unprofessional. read more

Think twice about using this company. Work is subpar quality and they do not deliver everything they promise when the job is booked. Have been waiting months now for them to come back and fix everything, including cleaning the oil stains their equipment left all over my drive way. The owner also broke one of my deck steps and promised he'd repair this, but still waiting. There are too many deficiencies to even list in this review. They keep stringing you along saying they are coming back at the end of the week. The owner, JT, was supposed to come yesterday evening, but of course never showed, or reached out. read more

JT wanted payment in advance and when I refused, he went on a profanity laced tirade shouting at me more disrespectfully than I have ever been spoken to in my entire life. Some of his work was good as it was expected to be and some of it was horrible. I would not recommend him read more

After discussing my project on multiple occasions I tried for more than 3 weeks to get a documented estimate and start date but never got them. He sent me a screen shot of his notes dated March 31. It seemed like JT didn't want the job and was avoiding my requests. When I told him in late April I no longer wanted him to do the work, he simply said "no problem". Unfortunately 1 Star is the lowest possible rating. read more

I was having an issue for a couple of weeks that I needed to get taken care of. I saw their trucks near my house and contacted them via email when I got home. James got back to me in less than 24 hours and was able to provide me with a solution to my problem in a timely manner. I'm very satisfied with the outcome. Thank you James read more

James is a fast talker who promises a lot, starts the job, has been unresponsive to calls, makes appointments he does not keep, takes the money and does not finish the work contracted and paid for. We are quite unhappy with James! One star is necessary to post otherwise I would give him a -10. read more

I needed to have some stumps ground out, saw one of the JT Landscaping trucks locally, and left a message through their website. I received a call back quickly, and made arrangements for a quote. James arrived at the time promised, and provided a quote immediately - a very good rate. We scheduled the work for two days later, and James and his crew came back as promised. The work they did was done quickly, only two half-days, and done very well! The first day, James and a co-worker located and ground out a LONG row (length of property - 150 feet) of large hedge stumps, cleaned up the grindings, and had it all done in record time. The next day, James and his co-workers brought and spread 7 yards of topsoil, planted 5 trees, put down grass seed and hay, and cleaned up the leaves from the entire property, front and back. I didn't ask to have the clean-up done, but they did it and included it in the original price. James was very nice to work with. He and his team were pleasant, polite, and professional. James threw in a few extra items, found and included the trees, and kept the price very reasonable. I felt that the price I paid for all of the work that was done was excellent. I look forward to working with JT Landscaping again! read more

I made the appointment and was told that the owner would be out to see as at 1pm. It was almost 3pm when the "owner" James showed up to my home without calling or returning any of my attempts to contact him. He stumbled up to my door and it was immediately clear that he was intoxicated, he smelt like he just finished up drinking all night, was slurring his words and asked to sit down because he could not stand steady on his feet. We began discussing what I wanted and he was throwing out quotes that I knew were overpriced thanks to my husband wokring landscaping in college. Once I let James know that I knew he demanded to speak to my husband "because women don't know business". I politely asked him to leave and he did, but not before mumbling an obscenity under his breath, knocking my chair over and slamming my door. I looked him up after the fact and found he has a rap sheet a mile long. Most disrespectful person I have ever had the displeasure of even considering to do business with. I'm glad things happened the way they did though, who knows what he would've done with my money had he shown up appearing professional. Would not recommend, ever. read more
