Used His Workmanship for the first time to trim a dozen large shrubs that were very overgrown, plus some weeding and leaf pickup. Great communication setting up the appointment. The crew arrived on time, worked quickly and efficiently, and clarified my preferences throughout. Will use them again.

The 2 college aged guys that did the work were polite and nice and did the work to the best of their ability. They brought a shovel, hand clippers, a broom and battery-operated clippers that did not work. They needed a ladder to trim the 3 Euonymus bushes next to the front door and carried out an 8' ladder from the house. They were not able to trim off what I wanted (even from inside the house thru an open window) because they could not reach the bushes. I didn't say anything. I will have to get someone else to finish that work. They trimmed a Crepe Myrtle and that was OK. They trimmed the ivy on the lamp post, but they may have cut the electric wires because the light no longer works. I need to get an electrician. That was the 3 items I requested to be done when I contacted John at his website. I should have read the email 'contract' because I was told 2 guys would be there for 4 hours and the cost was $400. I told John the work would take less than 2 hours. However, If I wanted to cancel, I would owe $100. He said I needed to find more work to be done. They finished the 3 trimming jobs in about 1 hour (together). I had them remove 3 hydrangea bushes and 1 Hosta. They raked the area and finished in 40 minutes. The total time was 3 hours total for the two. (1 1/2 hours each) I told them they did a fine job. They said my yard was the nicest and neatest yard they had seen because they only see places that need to be cleaned and weeded. I think John should tell potential clients that the guys doing the work know very little about trimming or pruning bushes/shrubs and not to rely on them for advice on how much to trim. I will not be using the company again and will question the abilities of the workers before I hire them. I have trees to trim and yard work that needs to be done about 4 times a year and I will look for a company that can do the work and do it correctly. The kids were nice and good workers but the guy who runs the company needs a lesson on how to run a company.

I have used this service three times now and been very pleased each time. It's easy to set up, reliable, and responsive. The guys who show up to do the work are the same way. They listen to what you say and do a great, thorough job. They may be a little on the pricey side, but with the market the way it is today, they're well worth it!

I hired this company to simply lay mulch. We had the beds already leveled, weeded, and the preen was down. I was willing to pay $300 for 2 workers for 3 hours because I was confident they could get a majority of the job done in that time frame per the conversations and job requirements laid out ahead of time. I sent pictures to Eric and explained exactly what I needed done-8 yards of mulch laid around our house with two areas of difficulty being a large pine tree and a bed with large shrubs. We asked for them to start on those areas first-they did not they picked the easy areas. I also made sure to confirm they were bringing shovels and wheel barrows. Yep, one wheelbarrow for two people and 2 smalllll shovels show up. Not set up for success! The pace the crew worked was VERY SLOW and about 1 1/2 hours in they told me they couldn't get all this done. I told them I REALLY needed the areas we talked about done before they left. They did that and our yard looked like a disaster zone. I have debated for several days on whether to post this or not as we are a God loving family and I truly appreciate the values of this company, however the work was awful. I did pay and my husband and I finished our project as we had started and should have just done it ourselves. Quality was sloppy and effort was minimal. Not impressed. Disappointed...and was going to refer them until I saw their lack of care with this job. It was how much mulch can I dump in 3 hours and let's get paid and move on. :(

It was a blessing and a delight to have His Workmanship work on our landscaping. They arrived on time and started right away. We had one very large area that needed weeds pulled and 8 knock-out rose bushes removed. They pulled every weed by hand, getting down to the root system. Their rates are reasonable and I appreciated getting all my questions answered right on the website and not having to book on the phone. They scheduled my job within 3 days from the day I got in touch with them. This was a gift to my husband for his 70th birthday who does all of our landscaping and he was very pleased.

The crew from His Workmanship did a wonderful job with our large flowerbed. It became unmanageable for my husband and me. The crew showed up and got to work, knowing exactly what to do. They made the most of their time and the end result exceeded our expectations. We will be rehiring them for another project in our backyard. Communication from beginning to end was on point.

I was excited when I initially found His Workmanship locally as I had some flower beds in desperate need of weeding and edging. I hired two workers for four hours not knowing exactly how much time it would actually take. I started with an inquiry and got a very prompt response, which I appreciated. Shortly after, I was on the schedule. The two workers arrived promptly and were very polite. I explained that I really wanted the main focus to be on two sides of the house and if they ended up having time left over within the four hours, they could move on to the other flower beds that didn’t have as many weeds. They told me they had an edger as I needed the beds edged out- the only tool I saw them use was a shovel. When the four hours were up, they had been able to work around the entire house but I was very disappointed in the quality of work for the amount I spent. Weeds were laughably overlooked, there are several areas with grass still in them, and the edging looks uneven. I completed an honest survey in order to help them with future customers, and then reached out to Eric to express my disappointment. I explained everything and asked for a response- I would really like the job to be completed or at least some of my money refunded but it’s been days and no response. It’s a little unnerving that he was quick to respond with a new work inquiry but then silence when there’s an issue. I appreciate the time the two workers spent but if this is the quality of work and customer service people are paying for…then buyer beware.

I was very pleased with the work that Jamison and Joey did for me at my church. They worked non-stop for the 3 hours, even after I suggested they take a 5-minute break. They were doing the hard work for me. I sure appreciated it and several noticed/mentioned how much better the flower beds looked. And it made it easier for me to plant flowers a few days later--6.5 hours of it. I will hire His Workmanship again when I need them.

This is my 3rd year using His Workmanship. The young man that worked in my yard was amazing. I was not able to stay at the house while work was being done. The young man sent me pictures with updates on the yard progress. He made sure that the work he was doing was what I wanted. I have a large yard and there was a lot of work accomplished. 3 large fountain grasses cut back, mulch laid, replaced landscaping blocks and cleared the yard of debris. I will continue to utilize this company.

One person showed up late. They did not bring any wheelbarrow for mulching, although they knew that they had to put mulch down. After working for three hours, with only 1/3 job done, they wanted to get paid and left. Very unprofessional and undependable. Wasted my money, and will have to hire a professional to finish the incomplete job. Never use them again.

I had two college students work on my yard. They were on time, engaging and a did good job. You need to make sure you have larger tools for them. I don t know how they would have completed the work if I didn t have a wheel barrel and large shovel. They brought regular shovels and straight rakes. I offered three days after the mulch was delivered to come complete the work and the service wanted to schedule on the day the mulch was delivered which added some uncertainty due to timing of the mulch delivery, but it all worked out.

Not a full service landscaping company, but they were very hard working and got the tasks finished. Great service if you know what projects you want done and just need extra labor to help pull it off. The boys were respectful, on time, and hard working. Very pleased with the experience, and will probably use them again.

I am begging you. Please do not use this business, especially in Detroit with Eric. He does not follow anything that would be of the Christian faith, and actually threatened me. A woman that filled in for me as my mother because I lost my mom when I was 19, went into hospice last night and I had to cancel them coming tomorrow to do landscaping. Eric Pfeffer actually fought with me to get his $100 because we had to cancel. A woman that I love dearly and her name is Joyce Palmer from Madison heights, and you can go ahead and check her obituary in the next couple of days to find out when she passed. Eric Pfeffer just wanted his $100, and never really cared at all about the trauma, the emotional roller coaster, and feelings that I was going through. If he was actually of Christian faith, he would have understood and let it go. He asked me to send the money to his wifes Venmo, not to the company but to him directly. He put the address that I gave him in a text where we were going back and forth, and then did this: Ok, you asked for it then. Is that Christian like? Does that speak of any faith? It got to the point where I had to tell him that I contacted my lawyer tonight, which I do have because I own a corporation, and that he will no longer speak with me but he will speak to my attorney. If he shows up the address that I gave him, he will be dealing with a disabled person, and that will be a big problem.

I had seven evergreens removed from my front yard. The work was completed as scheduled and the guys did a great job. The only negative is His Workmanship should provide their people with more and better equipment for jobs like mine. The guys only had two shovels and a nipper for cutting roots that was too small. They had a tough time doing this project with what they had to work with.

★★
January 24, 2024

I wish I would have read reviews on this company first. I sent a number of pictures of the scope of work as part of the initial service request. I was told by the company via email that based on the scope of work, the number of guys I booked and the amount time should be no problem. At the end of the time booked, they came to the door and said they were ready for payment. I went outside to look, and they casually explained that the work was not complete (roughly half done, weeding and mulching). I paid them and accepted that I would have to take time off work to finish this job. I came out the next day to pull obviously missed weeds in already mulched areas to find that, not only did they not finish the job, but the areas they mulched didn t even have weeds fully removed. Just mulched over. I contacted the company to explain the situation and request partial reimbursement, and was essentially just directed to the verbiage in the confirmation email that explains work is not guaranteed to be completed in the allotted time, and said the agreed upon service had been completed and the contract was fulfilled. Based on this and what I ve since read, you may be better off going elsewhere. Edit: Eric reached out after the fact to further understand the nature of my concerns, which was appreciated. While the quality of the work is up for debate, be sure to understand ahead of time the risk youre taking on by booking work upfront based on number of personnel and hours, as the only remaining mitigation is paying for additional hours.

Do NOT Use this company! They dropped a dresser and broke it to pieces, the movers laughed about it and then proceeded to not apologize at all. The owner will not give any refund for the broken dresser. They claim they have no insurance or liability for anything broken. Not a Christian company, no representative of Christ at all.

Tl;Dr: I wish I had filtered to the low star reviews versus relying on the average star rating. Those negative reviews align with our experience and tell a consistent story. His Workmanship was sadly, a disappointment. Four gentlemen showed up on time and were polite. I was initially shocked by their lack of any tools, and over the first hour learned they had gloves, rakes, possibly a shovel or two, though I never saw shovels used or brought out. I had clearly detailed the work to be accomplished, with pictures sent before scheduling and assumed, based on the communication with Eric, that I would need to provide mulch and bags, which we had on hand and prepared. Given the tool situation we thought we would just roll with the punches and ask them not to do any mulching as it would take too long and frankly would be ergonomically unsafe for them to do some of what was planned without proper tools. I did attempt to contact Eric via email and phone as we were making these decisions but could not get through to him. (I get it, it was early on a Saturday.) Fair Warning: These young men did not have a basic understanding of how weeds, saplings, etc. must be handled to be truly removed. Root systems were not always removed properly and a small sapling was cut off with an ax (provided by my husband) so now we cant remove it properly without digging. This crew was not especially communicative, were not able to help us problem solve the tool situation, and there were frequent incidence of phone checking, stopping work completely to have casual conversations, trying to drown my husbands music out with their own, running over a reflector when leaving, etc. We had no expectation that these were professional landscapers, but did expect them to be diligent workers with basic knowledge of how to do the work properly. One of the major reasons I chose this company was that I thought it was a great way for young adults to make a livable wage PT. I was well aware I could have found less expensive ways to get this work done. I was happy to pay a fair wage for good labor. We ended up stopping work at the 4 hour point and asking the crew to leave because we were wasting time and money. The crew lead, Jacob, was polite throughout and seemed to understand what was happening and why. There appeared to be some question over whether Eric would want us to be charged the full 8 hours, grateful that wasnt an issue after a phone call. We are very appreciative of Jacobs professional attitude in the face of this challenge, it is not a situation anyone wants to have to handle. We hired people because we couldnt physically get the job done in a weekend and desperately needed to get ahead on what we got way too behind on. It was a big job and we expected it to be challenging and possibly not done in the 8 hours we contracted for initially. But, at $50 dollars per hour per worker, I really think you should look elsewhere for help or at least have a very clear understanding of what you may be getting for that money. I dont remember ever having left a negative review online, but feel compelled to do so in this case.

I dont need a company telling my kids they should go to church. Or that they should read a bible verse so we get a discount. Provide the service for paying customers, but dont push religious beliefs on their families. Incredibly unprofessional.

These two young men were thoughtful, polite and hardworking. It was a pleasure having them here. They finished everything we had on our list thoroughly and on a timely basis. Want them back next time. One suggestion (even though its none of my business): It is my understanding that the hourly fee is split evenly between the workers and the organization. I my opinion, this arrangement is a bit lopsided and would think that 60% workers and 40% organization might be a more equitable arrangement. Just a thought. Perhaps the additional 10% could be positioned as an incentive and earned based on the customer reviews they receive.

The Youngman were very professional and courteous, so was the scheduler (Eric). One issue/slight concern is they did not have any tools to disassemble the headboard and footer, necessary to get down to the basement. It might be good to ensure movers have some tools and also more dialogue, by phone is better to clearly identify the needs, challenges. We will have to get a more knowledgeable handyman to finish breaking down the headboard and reassemble the bed.

I am appalled by the lack of professionalism of this company! The two guys that were sent did not finish the job because they said it took longer than they thought it would and they had to leave . I was left with bushes dug up and not replanted. When I said I would not pay until the job was completed , I was told the company was working to get someone else out to finish the job . When I called the company to inquire on when the other workers would arrive , I was informed that since it would take less than the minimum three hours to complete the job they didn t have anyone to do the work . Don t be taken by this company like I was.

The guys who come are polite and hardworking, however there are dishonest business practices here that customers should be aware of. I am quoting directly from their website The hourly rate will begin once your crew arrives and starts working on your project. When your crew finishes to your satisfaction the clock will stop. Then the crew leader will come to your door and ask you to review their work. When you are pleased with the outcome, the crew leader will calculate the total hours and payment with you. This is not the service that we received. The crew of 4 guys started at 9:10 and left and 3:30. They left the job site for an hour long lunch break. I had to pay them the full 7 hours. The $180 an hour we were paying the crew of 4 guys covered their lunch break. No clocking in and out. Finished early? They don t calculate the hours worked you booked us 7 hours, you pay 7 hours. I wish they operated with integrity but this is not the case. When politely inquiring with Eric he was defensive non-apologetic and stood by this practice.

The team His Workmanship cleared out the weeds from our foundation plantings and trimmed the shrubs. They also gained a foothold in our flower beds. They worked constantly and did as much as possible in the time we scheduled. Wish I could have them come out every week!

Hired this company they worked 2.5 hours did not finish job, sloppy work, was told on website that you pay for what you use. Not true at all they did not even work the minimum. Small claims court next. Appears others have been scammed.

Can t recommend this company enough. In fact they came out this morning and I ve already given their information to a few people to hire them. They were on time, they worked really fast but still efficiently and with integrity. Our yard was in awful shape, we had so much going on this year than maintenance was not on our priority list. They did not seem to judge the state of our yard at all and just got it back to square one. Thank you guys for your help!!

I recently used His Workmanship to remove rock from my back yard. Having to leave for work before the job was done, I did not see the end result. I return home to find the job unfinished. Furthermore, I let them use my wheel barrel to help them. They broke the wheel barrel and did not offer to repair/replace or discount their price. After bringing the issue to their leadership (Eric). He proceeded to offer me $10 dollars so I could fix the wheel barrel myself. When I asked if they would be willing to come and fix the wheel barrel, he said his company would not do that. I should have read more reviews. This company has a history of poor performance, specifically jobs led by Eric.

Do NOT hire this company for landscaping!! I was very specific with Eric about what I needed done and the crew he sent had no experience at all! My husband and I worked hours re-doing what the crew did, or rather, didn t do. Eric was very much lacking in his communication skills, as well as highly irresponsible and unprofessional. It was the worse $480 I have ever spent. I am still awaiting a partial refund from Eric.

I contacted His Workmanship on Monday and by the afternoon had a crew scheduled for Tuesday morning. I had a lot of weeding to be done - Jeremiah and Malachi knocked it out quickly and efficiently, and I had them tackle a few extra areas. So polite, professional, and courteous. Always yes maam. They did a fantastic job, the value was great for what I paid, and Ive already recommended them just hours later toy neighbors and sister-in-law! My husband and neighbors were impressed at how great everything looks. Definitely recommend and will be hiring for other projects! Thanks so much!

I purchased a Groupon from this business. Immediately I was told I was out of the 5 mile service radius in which I am about 2 miles within the radius on the Groupon. After Eric conceded to that fact I attempted to schedule an appointment. Suddenly they were only available on weekends. Suspect of this I emailed a new serive request with a Groupon and was given an appointment the very next day. Given the horrible reviews on Google the BBB and noe Groupon I would highly recommend never use this lying Christian company. There is absolutly no use contacting them as they do not resolve any problems.

UPDATE: Eric contacted me later in the day and reimbursed me the money I was charged for gas and added a little for the stress it caused. He also was willing to chat about pricing with me, especially the $150 fee for hauling a small load of debris away. I feel that he made things right in the end. I do still however believe that you can get the same service for less from a local landscaping company so I will be leaving this review with 3 stars until the pricing is looked at and adjusted for the Dayton Ohio area. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Sadly I am disappointed with His Workmanship. DO NOT do hourly rate landscaping!!!!! Not the young men that came out. They were on-time professional and communicated quite well. My problem is with the owner Eric and his hidden costs. So I purchased a Groupon and I failed to read the fine print that additional hours at full price would have to be added. Okay got it...my fault! I requested the debris be hauled away during my hourly rate. Well that is $150 more. Okay...seems steep but probably have to rent a truck. Nope...small bedded personal truck with a topper on it arrived. Can t haul much in that...definitely not $150 worth but my husband had agreed to pay for it so.... well the job started & then it was realized that the truck couldn t hold all the debris....duh....it s not a work truck for landscaping. It s a personal pickup with a topper on it. So I was offered to make several trips...each at $150. Seriously $450 to haul away debris. I am not making this up people. So it was agreed upon that we would stick with the original plan and the debris would be left behind for me. The young men finished up , ran the debris to dump and than came back to pick up a desk that they had to remove from the bed of the truck and leave at my house. We agreed that I d pay when they returned. When they returned my husband went to pay them the quoted price by the owner Eric only to find there is now a $15 gas fee. I went to ask what the fee was and was told they had to drive here and back. What in the world?!?!?! Unbelievable! When I shared with the owner that there was another fee added that had not been quoted and that I would not being doing business with him again he said he would be sure to be more accurate in the future. BAD business!! WATCH out people for all Eric s hidden costs. I am telling you right now hire a professional to do landscaping work...by the job not by the hour with add ins for absolutely EVERYTHING!
