My mother had plants on the side table, which ruined the finish on the top. The dining room set had a cracked captain's chair--all six chairs were wobbly and the table had lost it's luster. The table also needed to have the extenders repaired as they were warped and had cracked stoppers. The armchair's wood finish was tacky to the touch and needed refinishing. In addition to these items, I have a 5' x 5' mirror from the early 1900's that had fallen from the wall upon moving as the wire broke that was holding it and the mosaic tile border became cracked and damaged. Miraculously, the mirror stayed intact. I have to admit, the quote was scary, but I wanted to bring these items back to life the right way. Jeff's team did amazing work, which took about 7 weeks for everything, as promised. Jeff was great to work with, very funny and sarcastic (which I enjoy). He tells it like it is, which some people on Angie's List seem to take issue with. The negative reviews sorta solidified my choice to use them. He and his team are clearly perfectionists who pay great attention to detail to ensure the job is done correctly. Was the work expensive? Sure--but was it done right and with artistry? Absolutely! The mirror, in particular, came out beyond my expectation. It hung in my father's house when he was a child and my mother re-tiled the whole border herself in the 1960's. Jeff wasn't sure at first if they could fix it, but they came up with a great solution to salvage the broken tile and hang it even more securely without a wire. They did a great job with it! I had to stop by the shop to give him a check and was able to meet the team during their staff meeting. It was a very nice moment for me to be able to meet them and thank them in person for all their hard work and the beautiful restoration job they did on my pieces. I would use them again without doubt.

He did an excellent job along the ceiling line, which was important to me. No one wants a crooked ceiling line especially when the white ceiling is set against a very dark wall. He did not show up for our first appointment on July 29. I called him when he was a half hour late, got his voice mail and left a message asking when he was arriving. He showed up 10 minutes later and rushed up to me saying "I wasn't sure if I was supposed to be here today." He told me it was a bad week for him with lots of family issues. I was understanding and we made another appointment for August 1 at noon. On August 1 he called me in the morning to say his day had opened up and he could be at my place by 11:00. He showed up at 1:30. He brought me a plant to make up for being late. We discussed the final details of the job and he set to work. While he was applying the first coat of paint, he kept getting texts and seemed concerned by them. When he finished the first coat, he said he would have to come back THE FOLLOWING WEEK to do the second coat because the paint wasn't drying fast enough. Since this was already the second time I had moved all my living room furniture, I was not happy with having to do it still again, or have my house in chaos till he came back. I turned on the A/C and put a fan on the wall and it dried quickly and he finished the second coat. However, since he was then in a hurry to get done, he did a very fast second coat. He missed a lot of spots which I had to touch up the next day. He also got sloppy because he was working so fast, and he dripped dark purple paint on my light beige carpeting in several places, and got paint on walls which were not supposed to be painted. When I asked him to clean the stray paint marks, he gave me a sanding block and told me to sand it off the next day! (I tried sanding off the dark paint but the block began taking off the white paint as well, so I stopped. Now I just avoid looking there.) We agreed that he would come back on Friday August 9 to do the trim. He never showed up. I used JP Construction because there was a Big Deal for 4 hours of painting for $129. I was looking for a painter to do several rooms, and this was a good way to try out someone without having to spend a lot of money. There is a glowing review for him on a $5000 job. Maybe he just didn't think my $129 job was worth the trouble. Whatever the reason, he was consistently not punctual and did not finish the job. He did 2 hours work and it took me longer than that to touch up what he missed and clean up what mess he made.

"Roberto and his crew did an outstanding job! We usually do all of our hedge abs shrub trimming ourselves, but with a few other projects going on we hadn’t gotten them all season long and they were seriously overgrown. Since we COULD do it ourselves, we had a limit on what we were willing to pay, so we were getting several quotes … most of which were higher than we had hoped. Roberto worked with us on the pricing, which was good news because now it was off of our plate! His crew was there the early next day … fast, friendly, courteous, conscientious and neat!

FAQs for plant watering projects in Dorchester, MA
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
Lawn irrigation is the process of getting water to your lawn, grass and all, for it to grow. There are five main types of lawn irrigation methods:
Manual irrigation puts you in charge of the flow of water. Using a sprinkler head on your hose is best to evenly distribute the water across your entire lawn. This doesn’t take much time but requires you to be physically outside holding the hose.
Above-ground sprinklers attach to your hose and rotate or oscillate around your lawn. Since these are above-ground, they’ll need to be moved when it’s time to mow, and depending on the size of your property, you might need to move it around your yard for full coverage.
In-ground sprinklers are flush with the ground when not in use but pop up above the ground level when it's time to water the lawn. Piping for these sprinklers is all found underground, and there are different types of sprinkler heads for different uses and lawn sizes.
Drip irrigation involves drip lines that are more efficient than sprinklers for more extensive lawns. This involves a lot of digging since they are installed underground, but it makes it easy for you to mow.
Rainwater collection and irrigation uses nature’s precipitation to water your lawn. This option might not be available in every area since semi-reliable rainfall is needed, though the barrels for this system can range from 15 gallons to 10,000 gallons or more.
The cost of a lawn sprinkler system is $2,550 for the average homeowner. However, this price can range from $350 to $5,000 or more, depending on the type of sprinkler system you install, the size of your yard, and the type of sprinkler heads you choose.

Likewise, a yard that is 1/4 of an acre in size averages a total average price of $2,460; however, a one-acre yard averages a cost of $9,840.
