Sam and Steve were awesome to work with! They communicated and walked us through everything about our rather large landscaping project! We had them do drain tiles, grading, put in new sod, and hardscape work. It turned out beautifully, and the price was very fair. They also helped us get an irrigation system put in. Hands down the best contractor we’ve ever worked with!

Steve, Sam and Kyle were amazing to work with. They were very accommodating and helpful, making sure we got the patio we asked for. They made sure that all the details were attended to, including touch ups where necessary. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have landscaping or hardscape work done.

If you are in need of a great company for any landscaping project, call Vein Lawn and Landscaping They did a project for me this summer and I'm thrilled with the results. They came up with a solution to my problem and completed the project in a professional yet friendly manner. They answered all my questions even some I didn't know enough to ask.

They did an excellent job replacing my front lawn and retaining wall next to my house. The yard is level and completely sodded with good sod. A concrete material was used for the wall that has a great appearance and seems very sturdy to me. Care was taken in the installation about my existing plants with both installations. Steve Viens gave us detailed information about how to care for the lawn (and atta-boys re: our lawn watering).

I had a problem with my lawn that needed somewhat urgent attention and I knew I could not fix it on my own. Veins Lawn and Landscaping was recommended to me. I reached out to them on Tuesday and by Friday my lawn was completely repaired. They gave me detailed instructions on how to take care of the sod they had installed. It was great working with Sam and Steve. Their crew worked fast and it looks so nice. Very grateful for such great service.

I have trusted the team at Viens with every aspect of my landscaping and outdoor projects and they never disappoint. They are fair with their pricing, excellent with communication, and the work itself is excellent. They do my weekly lawn upkeep, I bring them in for seasonal cleanup, and they recently undertook a huge retaining wall and staircase project that went perfectly. I will absolutely continue to use Viens for all of my home’s outdoor needs.

Viens was the faraway the most inexpensive option to replace my retaining wall. Not only were they reasonably priced but care was taken to ensure the wall was constructed correctly, I watched one of the workers use a level on what I assume was every stone as they were being placed. Not only was the work good, but the communication from Steve was great. He let me know when the project was going to start, updated me when there was something unexpected that came up, was on site almost every day himself, and got me the initial bid within only a few days. I would recommend Viens for any of your projects. I am super happy with my wall and have received several compliments in just the three days since it was finished.

The Viens crew was nothing short of fantastic! They removed all the mulch around our house and replaced it with rocks. When they arrived, they walked me though the project again and asked if the scope of work was accurate and then got down to business. They worked hard and got the job done very fast. All the employees were very kind and professional. They even left my yard cleaner that it was before. I’d recommend them to anyone in the market for any sort of landscaping service based on this interaction alone. We will be giving them future business for a patio in the back yard and more. Thank you Viens!

We are so happy with our landscaping done by Viens! Sam and Steve were very responsive with communication, and the work was done quickly and efficiently. Sam was in touch with us throughout the project, making sure everything was being done as we wanted it to be. Their crew was friendly and hardworking, and they delivered beautiful results with planting trees and shrubs, putting in new edging and rock beds, trimming and hauling away brush, and building rock and wood gardens. They were respectful of our space (closed gates, cleaned up after themselves, planted grass in the muddy areas) We definitely recommend their services!

If I could give Viens Lawn Care ten stars, I would. They transformed my backyard from an overgrown mess to a beautiful oasis. Steve and Sam worked with me to create the perfect outdoor space for entertaining by installing updated landscaping and a new paver patio. Their crew is professional and courteous. I have been working with Viens for 20+ years and highly recommend them.

We were interested in a large new patio with a gazebo for our back yard. Viens gave us some great ideas for the design of the patio, for landscaping along the house and for a front yard garden. They were very polite, professional and had many ideas of which we incorporated most of them. We actually went on vacation just after the patio was started and came back to a beautiful new patio and landscaping. Viens also has mowed our yard for years. They are always reliable, quick to return calls and are very professional! Yard looks great. We would highly recommend them for your patio, landscaping and lawn care needs.

Viens just completed installing a new front patio and steps for us, as well as a water remediation project in the backyard. Both jobs were completed on time and on budget. We couldnt be happier with how the new patio and steps look. Viens foreman, Sam Casalenda did a great job from beginning to end. Thank you!

Viens reconstructed our staircase, retaining wall and patio, and planted hostas which still look great a few years later. With labor and materials cost always rising, landscaping work nowadays is always more expensive than you d hope, but we were very satisfied with the quality of the work for a fair price.

Sam and Steve were amazing to work with! They came out and did a walk through, provided a competitive price, always communicated with us on the schedule and were honest and fair. Our front and back patios are spectacular and we are so happy and excited to spend time outside at our house. Thank you so much! Definitely would recommend to use them for your landscaping needs.

Viens redid our patio, and we have gotten alot of positive feedback from neighbors, and people just walking by. The staff was very courteous, and professional, and conscientious about the rest of our yard. Steve, Sam, and crew thank You for giving us a new area to chill out on, and relax and enjoy the outdoors. Sammy- Cindy- Rocco Casalenda

I can t give enough positive feedback regarding my landscaping project with Steve, Sam and crew. Family owned and operated, Steve Viens and son-in-law Sam Casalenda were hands-on leading a wonderful team of hard working folks who transformed my outdoor space. Adding a lighted wall next to an existing curvy stamped concrete patio, refreshing grading, replacing landscape rock, pavers, plants, plus, plus, plus. Total joy.

Over the past couple of decades, our lawn showed its age, with shaded bare spots and protruding tree roots. Steve Viens & his landscaping crew were up to the task of renovating our yard: They shaved the old lawn; Applied black dirt over the entire area, including a graded buildup over the tree roots; Meticulously laid the new sod. We like perfectionists. Our property looks brand new. Give the crew a bonus!

We have used veins lawn service for the past few years and we have been totally pleased with their work. They are professional. They never miss a week of service and my lawn always look great. I must admit that my husband was initially against it saying that he would keep doing it himself but when he saw what a great job they did and with the addition of the fall and spring cleanup, he was all in. This gives us time back to do the things we want to do. This past year was very hard on my shrubs and several of them died. I also had some other landscaping issues that I wasnt sure what to do. Things looked pretty bad so I called Steve Veins. He came out immediately and consulted with me. Steve made expert recommendations on what to plant and the layout. We came up with a landscaping plan that they implemented shortly thereafter. I couldn t be happier. I would recommend this company for lawn care and landscaping to anyone!

I had several people come out to give my a price on doing some finishing work around a new concrete pad in my backyard and Steve was the best priced, most helpful with ideas, and communicated the best. He genuinely felt interested in doing the work. His crew put in drain tile, edging, rock, and sod down in 4 or 5 hours when it would have taken me a couple weekends. The project turned out excellent. Would definitely use them again.

I simply cant imagine anyone else doing our landscaping. What a great group of guys who genuinely had our wants and needs in mind. The owner Steve Viens was very hands on. Steve was there every single day working along side his workers overseeing the job from start to finish making sure we were one hundred percent satisfied. Steve would give his expert advice but was not pushy making sure our vision was realized. If I ever called and got his voicemail I was promptly called back. Steve always answered my calls and was willing to discuss my job. More importantly they were always there as scheduled and on time. The job was finished as promised. His team was very kind and professional. Very approachable and respectful of our home. Id also like to add they were gentle and kind to our dogs. We have a lot more landscaping that has to be done as we have a large yard. I cant think of any other company to do the work. Ill be referring Viens Lawn and Landscaping to anyone who asks. Thanks for making our house the envy of the neighborhood.Money well spent.

Steve and his team do an outstanding job. They helped us with a larger landscaping job at our home in Bloomington this summer. And my wife and I are so pleased with the end result. Steve and team were extremely professional, courtesy, and very fairly priced. I could tell upon first meeting Steve: he is honest, he and his staff care about you as the client, and they provide outstanding service. They also have a great sense of design and made some great recommendations of what would work best for our home and overall curb appeal. I would not hesitate to recommend Viens Lawn & Landscaping to anyone. They get 5 stars plus in our book. Awesome job Steve and team. Thank you again!

Horrible Snow Removal Service. When we contracted with them early last fall, the Owner made promises for snow removal times, that were never kept. Had to call and re-call and re-call to get anything done. We ended up plowing out our own driveway and sidewalk 90% of the times that it snowed this past year as they either never showed up-or we had to get out -and they had not arrived at the promised scheduled time. When you call, all you get is excuses. Today 4-19-13, with the whole state having a 3-5 day warning about the incoming snow storm-their excuse was that they had put all of the equipment away and were scrambling to get it back out so that they could try to get to people today. THEN they said there would be a $30.00 surcharge for todays snow removal, even though we had paid them the flat rate for the whole season. he owner is very obnoxious, sarcastic and rude when you call in. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE!
