"We received one other bid from a recommended supplier. It was 50% higher than the bid from Power. Power scheduled the time to do the work. They showed up as promised and completed the work without interruption. All parts of the tree were removed from our yard, The lawn and other planting seeds were not damaged.

"Although it was a little tough to connect in the beginning (due to summer rush and holiday weekend), once Maria and I connected, things went very smoothly.
She came to my house, measured and provided a quote in a very timely manner.  
I had to go through my HOA, and she was quite helpful. Providing the drawings and contacting J.U.L.I.E. as required by the HOA (and even coming out a second time to get additional details requested by the HOA).
We had set a tentative installation date (pending HOA approval) and were lucky that the HOA approval was received in the nick of time and the weather held out.
The crew showed up on time and worked tirelessly all day to complete the job. When they ran out of bricks, they went back out to buy more.  Maria  was there the entire time overseeing the work.  At one point we had an issue with the level of the patio where the base of the steps and the side of the house were out of sync (huge downward slope).  She noted the issue and provided a sound recommendation which I approved. At the end of the day, they cleaned up the entire area.  They had carefully removed sod, mulch and some of my plants to install the brick patio and when they were done installing, they replaced the sod, mulch and even replanted my flowers.  Impressive!!  Everything washed up (even the handprints on the staircase) and clean.  They were also very careful with the surrounding area.  I live in a townhouse and they used wheel barrels to bring in all the materials.  They were careful not to destroy any of the common area.  This is a huge plus and greatly appreciated.  
Overall, it was a very positive experience and I highly recommend LDP.  I love my new patio - even though it is small, it adds a whole new room for me outdoors.  Wish I could add pictures, it turned out great!!"

"The workers were very nice and did a great job for the price!"

"Ed was great! I'll definitely be asking him back to more electrical work."

"The lawncare provided was outstanding, because in addition to their punctuality and quality service, the lawn service team not only weeded the beds but also turned over the mulch in all beds. Nice touches like this is consistent with the increasing level of service received from VM Landscaping."

"These guys did a beautiful job on my deck lighting"

"Great landscape company!! Todd & Ross are a pleasure to deal with. They are professional, timely, listen to what your needs are, do great work, and back up their product or service. Honesty is a big factor for me and I trust them to do all my landscaping needs. I have a new house and they put all new landscaping beds in with plants, mulch (best quality I've seen), and retaining walls. I have had them come back and do other projects such as putting in rock around my pool and installed an awesome natural gas fire pit. They also put landscaping lights shining on the front of my house. I did have a problem with the lights and they came out right away and fixed the problem. Honesty, Trustworthiness, Great Work, Quality Products, Professional.......what more can you ask for?"

"After coming to our home promptly to provide an estimate on the job, Mr Castro (logistics/sales) did the measurements and offered some suggestions. We then advised that we were constrained by a budget and time, that we had already spoken to other contractors, but liked potentially what he and his company had to offer, he responded that he would have our estimate/proposal by the end of the business day or early the next. As it turned out we heard nothing. We called him, his office and left a message. Two several days later, and after talking with other contractors, we did talk to Mr Castro and another employee of the company. He apologized and stated that the estimate/proposal was forthcoming. When we finally received it on line it was way above our targeted budget. It was much more than their competitors, but given the information we saw on Angie's List and the glowing reviews, we thought we would try to work something out - even if we had to go above our tight budget - and in light of our time constraints. Mr. Castro, and presumably his superiors, balked at reducing the price. We therefore lowered our expectations as to what we wanted and asked that they recalculate the cost. They seemed to take their sweet time about it. Plus, during subsequent conversations between Mr. Castro and my spouse, it seemed that they weren't particularly interested in our business, once again hesitating to come to a consensus on the final price. We even noticed an authorized change in the type of materials being used ( a difference in the brand/type of pavers to be installed). When we brought it to their attention they made the change but the bid was still too high. We didn't hear from them for about a week or more, by which time we decided to go with a different contractor that was willing to work with us. Given the great rating this company has had in the past I guess it has gotten to the point where they don't need to seek out business that doesn't exactly adhere to price that they set. As it turned out we did go over out budget, but the company we went with took the time to work with us an kept it on budget - and added some extras that they really didn't have to. Good customer relations goes a long way. NO ACTUAL SERVICE WAS PERFORMED OTHER THAN PROVIDING AN ESTIMATE/PROPOSAL.
