JD Organic Landscape in Scotch Plains

These guys delivered! nice clean work. Very efficient and guided us with our best options to create exactly the look we were going for. Very far pricing, I'd recommend to friends and family and looking forward for future work. Thank you john joey and crew!

John did a nice job figuring out the right plants with us based on the look we wanted, made great recommendations. They came in to edge and clean up a few hundred feet of mulch beds and put in new plants and mulch for us. Came out even nicer than I expected.

UPDATE 6/5/23: John sent a check to cover the damages made. UPDATE 5/28/23: John reached out to me shortly after I posted my original review a month ago. And ever since, I’ve been playing this cat and mouse game where he scheduled to plant the vines, only to reschedule three time, first blaming it on “delays in one of his jobs”, followed by blaming it on the nursery supply delays twice. Once again, he’s failed to meet the expectations he set for me and not taking any accountability by placing blame on others. We’ve once again rescheduled for a future date TBD. This is his last chance. It’s pathetic that I have to keep him accountable by maintaining my critical review on Google, as it’s the only way he’ll pay any attention. I’ll update my review should anything new come up… ORIGINAL REVIEW: I used JD in 2023 for lawn maintenance and spring/fall clean-up and was very disappointed in not just their quality of service but also customer service. Things to note: 1. The landscaping crew destroyed the decorative vines in the front of my lawn to the point where 80% of the area that the vines used to occupy is bare. I brought this issue to John’s attention. He sent his colleague Joseph to assess the damages to which he acknowledged and said they’d circle back with a resolution. After weeks of following up, no resolution came to light. 2. The landscaping crew damaged one of the light fixtures in my backyard. This was also brought to John’s attention. No resolution. 3. The landscaping crew destroyed my Japanese maple tree saplings. And just like the above mentioned issue, John was made aware and no resolution came to light. Fast forward to winter 2024. I sent a notice to John & JD ceasing services and again noting my displeasure in their customer service because of the issues above. And once again he offered to rectify the situation. Again, nothing came of it. Then in March he sends his crew to perform spring clean up and lawn maintenance, followed by sending me an invoice. I promptly followed up noting my notice to terminate his services and said I wouldn’t be paying the invoice. YMMV, but he and the way his business is run is, among other things, very disorganized and not customer service friendly. If he/JD decide to reach out to me offline, please note - they had better offer a tangible offer to resolve this issue. I’ll update my review if/when I hear back from JD. Cheers.

*May 2023 Update* - I have increased my review from 1 star to 4 stars based on my interactions with John to resolve the issues I mentioned in the prior review below. John wasn't at all defensive and worked to remove my account from the collections agency. His crew also recently seeded areas of lawn damage. -------------------------------------------------------- I became a client of JDO because my original landscaping company was acquired by them. Towards fall of last year, after JDO reseeded my lawn, I was happy to see grass growing nicely, until JDO's own mowing equipment tore the lawn up again. After several messages to John went ignored, he finally replied and acknowledged he would "look into it". He also agreed to defer payments on two invoices until the lawn is repaired in the spring, and his assistant also made a note of this on my account. I am otherwise current on all my other invoice obligations. Today, I received a notice from a collections agency for my unpaid amounts, which is extremely disappointing. My advice to those considering JDO: They are fine, until something goes wrong.

JD Organic is the best lawn care service that we have used. They do a wonderful job with lawn maintenance and snow removal. Also, John responds very quickly if you have a question or concern. Highly recommend!

JD and his crew just completed a front and back yard landscaping job. From the initial walkthrough and reasonable quote to the last piece of mulch, he and his team were professional and great to work with. They redid our landscaping, providing us an initial design and made changes as they went along to ensure we were happy with the finished product. Would strongly recommend JD Organics for your next landscaping project.

John and his crew are AWESOME. At our old home we had nothing but problems with Landscapers and ultimately ended up doing all the work ourselves. So happy we found JD Organic at our new home. These guys are prompt. They are very careful with our property. John is insanely responsive when you email him. And they do really nice work. It's also very nice to know they use Organic NonToxic materials as we are a very earth and health conscious family. Highly recommended.

JD has been treating my front lawn and doing spring/fall cleanups for about a year. They are thorough and the property looks great when they are done! I had JD install sod in my backyard (which was previously a disaster) and they did an awesome job from start to finish. They prepped the yard day before and laid about 8 pallets of sod the next day. It was a long day but I appreciate the hard work and the yard looks great! I highly recommend JD.
