Poor quality service and rude costumer service. The first year they serviced our lawn, they were good but not reliable. They would come whenever and not on set days. This made it difficult to make sure my yard was clean of dog mess before mowing. Multiple times they left my gates open and one of our side gates does not have any viability from any doors or windows and this allowed my dogs to get loose because they had removed the metal rod keeping the gate shut despite the other side yard having a working gate. They also damaged my property when servicing the property last summer because they simply ripped my no dig fencing out of the ground and bent it causing me to have to replace it at my cost. Every year I ask to have my gutters cleaned in the fall, every year they charged me and failed to do so. Other years I over looked it because it wasn’t so bad but we had gutter covers installed and she insisted that I was the liar and I’m nothing but trouble of always calling and complaining that the gutters weren’t done. I’m simply asking for the service to be completed and the woman wouldn’t let me get a word in edge wise. Also, wouldn’t you think if this happens year single year - that perhaps this is an employee negligence issue and a quality control issue? She said she would be taking me off the schedule for guttering cleaning. Fine, I would actually rather be taken off the entire schedule than continue to pay for completely subpar service from a company who hired combative and rude costumer service people who’s voices sound like they never put down a cigarette in the last 50 years. She told me good luck finding another landscaper who will take on my house, which seems completely tasteless when I’m far from asking anyone to service an estate. This is a small postage stamp yard less than 500sqft.
Great service! In addition to the lawn mowing, they also did a removal of an old pond in backyard. Excellent service!
I own a landscaping business myself but I frequently purchase material, equipment from VandJ as well as getting equipment repairs from their team. Good family business, lots of my other family members who also do landscaping go to VandJ. Highly recommend.
I worked with Peter to have turf installed for a playground set. His expertise helped me pick the right material. The team was on time, professional and very good about completing the project to perfection. The price was also competitive. You can’t go wrong if you pick these guys. I get numerous compliments on how nice the turf is. I’m very pleased with the project. I look forward to working with them on other projects in the future.
We have used V and J for many years. Maria at the office is always so helpful with requests I make. Someone is always available at the office for communication. The workmen are quick and thorough. No complaints. Highly recommended. (They also offer snow removal and were reliable during those months as well).
The most unprofessional service I have ever seen. My lawn looks terrible. They burned the entire lawn, Put a spike through the sprinkling system, Never return calls and today my lawn was left unfinished. I have been very patient hoping this situation can be resolved but my call still has not been returned. If I could post photos I would.
I used these landscapers for the last few years. They never did a great job, but they were cheap. This year they completely ruined my grass and have raised their prices. I think they put grass killer instead of fertilizer down. When my husband spoke with the landscaper he suggested the same theory and said we need new sod. After I canceled my service, they came two weeks later and cut it even shorter and left bald patches in the grass.
Our weekly grass maintenance, spring/fall cleanups--both great. Very reliable and the guys do a nice job. We also have our snow blower picked up every fall for a tune up. We couldn't be happier with V and J!
They have been maintaining my mower and snow blower. They start first pull every time. Quick, and inexpensive.
Great people very dependable
We started with weekly yard maintenance and added special projects in subsequent years, including downspout drainage, front yard walled garden beds, big plantings such as a privet hedge, etc. I think of VandJ first when Im thinking of doing almost anything in my yards.
As marked above.
V&J do a great job. They also do snow removal for us. They are reliable and are always willing to work with us.
They do an excellent job in taking care of my lawn mawr and the snow thrower. I do wish they did some residnetial snow removal, as well.
We have worked with V&J for many years! They are wonderful responsive fairly priced and do amazing work! I recommend them all the time to friends and family! Lovely family business!
Great Dealership!
Went in for my lawnmower tune up Nice people Decent prices
Came home to a fantastic spring clean up. Peter and crew pay attention to detail and get the job done. Looking forward to a 5th season with V & J!!
They did our yard maintenance and snow removal for about a year and were nice and reliable. However, I would not recommend hiring them to do anything beyond basic maintenance, such as sod or fixing grass.
They have been a reliable snow plowing service for years.
I needed a few parts for an ancient Toro snowblower, and V&J had the parts in stock and without any crazy markups. There was a bolt that they werent able to get, but they found me a replacement that worked perfectly. Ill happily return when I need parts or service next time.
Outstanding quality, service, & cost. Highly recommended.
This organization is very professional when it comes to lawn care.
timely plow service. Driveway cleared by 7am
Replaced drivebelt on my all wheel drive husquvarna. Also repaired the bag frame broken weld.
I spoke with the owner about repairing my old snowblower. He was brutally honest with me and recommended that I didnt put any money into it. He felt it was not worth it. Instead he recommended buying a newer model... And actually gave me a model number that he recommended. If I ever need any work on my snowblower I would definitely recommend this business!
Called before I drove there to see if they serviced EGO products for warranty; guy on the phone said yes. I drive there the same day only to be turned away saying that they stopped servicing them.
Excellent
Had front yard sod and back yard spring clean up. The sod used in front yard looked like something purchased at Walmart. They pulled weeds in back yard and were ready to leave. I had to stop them and remind them I paid for the yard to be thatched and fertilized. They threw the fertilizer on the lawn by hand. The yard had burn up areas in weeks.
The good Vince is a man for politics until So academy la battery
I hired V&J to completely redo my front and back yard landscaping. Work included tearing out existing plants, rototilling, placement of river rock, sodding, plantings, installation of new edging, and mulching. They did a great job with all aspects of the job. I appreciated how Peter showed up both days and pitched in with his crew. I would definitely hire V&J again.
As an owner operator I d like my repairs done quickly. Vicente and his boys never fail to impress me on their timing with repairs. I ve taken 3 units the past 2 seasons and every time I get it repaired in a day or a few hours. Been to other repair shops and they keep your equipment for up to 6 weeks, because they never have parts in stock! Thanks V&J!
I ended my service with them. I was unhappy because after several attempts to let them know they were cutting things down that I didnt want them to, they continued to do so. These were things that are pretty obvious not to cut down like ferns. At 2 different occasions they over zealous with the weed wacker to the point that it opened the electrical box to my air conditioner, and damaged the insulation to the copper pipping to the air conditioner. They damaged the bark to a tree with the mowers to the point that I had to address it. Obviously, my experience was not good. Thus I give them a single star mostly because I let them know these were problems, and the problems persisted.
Good customer service
We have rented and have had them repair equipment over the years for us and have always been pleased. Thanks for all your help.
