    Don't make the same mistake as us, cheaper is not always better. These pictures speak for…read morethemselves. If you need lawn maintenance or blackberry removal, their reviews mostly prove to be good for that. If you're wanting a retaining wall or turf installed, please run far away from these guys. Leo was by far the cheapest quote we got and we wanted to save money if we could, so we hired them - bad idea. Everything was extremely unprofessional from beginning to end, and there were so many red flags that we should not have overlooked. There was no contract, they worked very slow (they said 3-4 days to be done with everything and ended up taking 5 days to complete HALF the job), they left their drinks and garbage all over each day after they left, and they were extremely unprepared with tools and asked my husband to borrow multiple items they forgot, they also made an absolute disaster of the front lawn and sidewalks with mud from the backyard and never bothered to clean anything up. By day 5, 90% of the wall was built, and a thin layer of gravel was put on the ground in preparation for turf. They were planning on 'completing' the rest of the job until the turf got delivered in a 1,000lb roll. Leo was so upset that the turf was not cut into smaller pieces (which as a owner of his company, he should have clarified beforehand) and told us it would cost us $1,500 extra for him to cut the turf. He started telling sob stories in which he "was already under on money from this job (which is his own fault because he bid the job), that now he would have to skip church on Sunday to cut the turf that he did not plan for, is only 19 years old working with his brother and is just trying to make an honest living, and that he's out there working late nights in the cold". We asked Leo why it would be $1,500 extra to make some cuts in the turf like he originally thought they would come in. When Leo's response was "you wouldn't understand, have you even installed turf before??" At this point we knew Leo was saying anything he could to extort money from us because he underbid the job. We decided to part ways with Leo but agreed to have him complete the retaining wall (it was still missing bricks on both sides for a completed look and we wanted the wall to be done at the very least). We knew Leo was mad that we didn't want to pay him extra money and my worst fear happened, Leo retaliated and only filled brick on ONE side of the retaining wall and gave up on the opposing side. They literally just threw some pieces of brick in there and called it good.... Worst thing I have ever seen in my life. We decided to just pay them to get them out of our yard for good and not have to deal with it anymore. We learned our lesson that cheaper is not always better and decided to go with one of the most expensive quotes from a company that actually knows what they are doing. This new company completed in 4 hours what took Leo and his buddy's 3 entire days. The new company informed us that the retaining wall that Leo built was completely the wrong pattern, that they did not use the right caulking glue (hence the bright white glue everywhere), that they only filled the wall with 3/4 minus for the first 3 layers and just completely gave up on the last layer, that they did not cap off the sprinkler system so that our turf would have flooded if they did install our turf, that they did not dig deep enough for the rock drainage and therefore the turf would have failed, that they compacted the gravel without ever ripping out any weeds underneath and therefore huge weeds would have grown underneath of it and created big lumps in the turf, and the list of problems truly goes on. It was truly a blessing in disguise that they had an issue with cutting the turf and tried to extort us for more money, because they had zero idea what they were doing and we would have had to have had everything redone anyways. So much wasted time & money. All this to say, if you need a wall built or want turf installed, please don't waste your hard-earned money, these are not your guys.

    Greatly recommend L&A Landscaping for any work you need done outside. Their work ethic is unmatched…read moreand they do an amazing job for an amazing price. I had them do my yard and they made it go from horrid to heaven on earth!
