    5' no joke
    Michael D.

    This company is inconsiderate of surrounding neighbors as it relates to leaf season. Consistently for years regardless of Fairfax county's wish for landscaping companies as well as homeowners to find alternate solutions for leaf collections, they continue to blow leaves into the street over a month prior to the collection, then returning right before the collection, gouging the neighbor I might add; To again blow a 5 ft x 25 ft by 8 ft wide pile of leaves and to the street for the rest of the neighbors to deal with as the week continues on, not to mention the danger incurred by narrowing the road. It is not difficult for landscaping companies to view county collection boards so they begin no sooner than 10 days before the allotted pickup. Higher seasonal help to make that happen, all other businesses do that during periods of increased business. As well a responsible eco-minded business owner would help guide their clientele in a direction that supports the Counties request by offering to mow the leafs into the yard. That will generate business and incur lower overhead.

    Steve's Mowing left trash on my property when leaving flyers despite a clearly posted No Soliciting sign.

    They started OK, but now do a poor job. Not worth the money. We hired Steve's mowing in 2019. They were OK at first, but starting in 2023, they've done a worse and worse job. 1. They've run over plants planted along a fence, even after we pointed out it was a hydrangea and should not be mowed. We had to pile bricks around them to kept them from being mowed, and even then sometimes the trimmer wacked them. 2. They skipped trimming long sections of our fenceline unless I was there to watch them. We almost cancelled this year, but we thought we'd give them one more chance. But they blew it. 1. They were supposed to start on the 25th, and did not come nor tell us that they were not. 2. They came today, even though it was raining, and only did parts of the lawn, skipping mowing the whole back yard, and part of the side and front. 3. They didn't do most of the trimming. Absolutely awful. And they raised their rates so we'd be paying more for worse service. No thanks. Good bye. At least now we know our hydrangea are safe.

    Steve's Mowing was exposed for "rounding up" leaf removal fees as I was told directly from their supervisor Allison (cid Erin) and completely non-transparent in leaf removal cost components. She admitted they round up time for removal, I have footage of their crews chilling on the property while on the clock in the back yard. In the past they've been gracious in adjusting for issues but today Erin was on a mission to discontinue the relationship saying things like "I hope you don't treat your team like you treat us" (without an idea what team she thinks she's talking about) and "It's clear you don't trust us" and "you're the only customer that's had an issue". They removed a good portion of my neighbor's leaves at my cost which is not a particular concern but they sure don't account for that as their generosity. I also have them blow 75% of leaves into the woods vs collecting them but they insist on a flat fee per man/hr of total leaf removal effort regardless if collected. Speaking of Erin's comments on my team. I'd definitely fire her if she were on mine and customer facing based on the comments she made. Clearly immature and inexperienced. Also, don't randomly show up at someone's home without an appointment Erin/Steve's Mowing (completely ridiculous). To be fair I trusted the crews to do a reasonable job but for several years but it was the consistently poor accounting and lack of accurate time keeping that was the issue. Now we can add poor immature customer service (specifically Allison or Erin)

    I highly recommend Hercules & Sons Landscaping for all your landscaping and lawn maintenence needs…read more I chose Hercules & Sons Landscaping after reading and researching the reviews on Yelp. My front and backyard needed a professional makeover. Jose and team were very professional, prompt, thorough, and attention to details was superb. The services I received was new sod, new plants, aligning existing brick boarder in the driveway, fertilizer, weed pull to name a few. For customers like myself who will maintain the lawn and plants, Jose provided specific instructions on how to care and maintenence the lawn and plants to ensure healthy growth. I appreciate the hard work done on my yard, the work was labor intensive, Jose and team surpassed my expectations and my neighbors really like the work they did on my yard. I selected Hercules & Sons Landscaping for quality work, not quantity. Everyone is always looking for great pricing. Remember, you get what you pay for. Pricing is reasonable. I recommend Hercules & Sons Landscaping for your lawn care needs. Check out the site, and give Hercules & Sons Landscaping a call, they offer other services as well. Superb job Jose and team, I will be a repeat customer for fall services.

    Hercules & Sons Landscaping did a Superior job in snow…read moreremoval at my home. Large driveway was plowed and salted neatly and professionally. They even shoveled my ice cube of a front walk! My family is very appreciative of their quick response and conscientious approach to the job. Highly recommend.
