Turns out it was concrete so badly degraded it might as well have been dirt withal. So Jason and his crew dug down further than they had expected. But before that I had saddled him with an awful task. He had indicated to me that he was willing to haul out debris from the basement that he could dispose of. Well I have health problems that limit my endurance, and it was my job to get everything out of the basement. I greatly underestimated the amount of stuff in the basement that was disposable. And I am a hoarder! I even took some of the things I need to dispose of to the storage space because I didn't want him to have to deal with it. I had put off hauling stuff out of the basement until the few days before the job. If I knew I had the mountain of garbage that Jason gallantly spirited away, I would have hired a disposal service. I am so very sorry for this and it is entirely my fault. But he was super nice about it despite filling a whole truck with the junk I foisted on him. Jason was keen to show me how he did the job well and pointed out the attention to detail he took where I might not have noticed what was in fact a very nice job indeed. I felt so small because not only is he physically taller than me, but I was so embarrassed about the massive pile of junk I fobbed off on him! But wait; there's more—the cast iron pipe that carries our sewage out to the city line had completely corroded through—imagine an iron pipe roughly the length of a man's height with a radius of two or three inches. turned almost entirely to rust, casting foils out from itself, but along the *entire* length of this big cast iron pipe was a gap of greater than an inch! Basically all our sewage was flowing through a partial pipe completed by the soil encasing it. There has long been a miasma in the place but because of a street-wide problem a few years ago, I did not realize there were structural problems with the pipe. So Jason had no choice to replace it then and there. Fortunately for both of us, I was tired sore from moving stuff and slept late the second morning. He sent me an e-mail apprising me of the situation, which was cool because I indicated to him that it was the best way to get in touch with me. One other example of professionalism I must include—the first time he called me down to watch his progress (the job took two days), the two brick planters which flank our basement door had been used as places to put their heavy toolboxes, despite the planters having been very obviously planted with not only flowers but herbs that we eat. I was angry about it but also feeling very sheepish about the junk pile i left him, so I pointed it out to Jason in a way that I hope was polite. I am sure I whined a little too much. I am not a whiner but I was really mad about the plants. Well, they were very careful around them after that. It is the kind of professionalism that is so professional that it makes one almost embarrassed to ask them to maintain a high standard. While we have not even had the floor poured and the real proof of their work will be to live with it for a few seasons, I can recommend Jason based on his professionalism, courtesy, and good communication. His team was also nice for a person with sensitive ears. To have a crew of contractors in one's house and having the most abrasive sound being the jackhammer is beautiful indeed.

My experience with them was extremely frustrating. I am listing my home for sale and needed to clean up the landscaping around the property-weed, mulch and trim the existing plants. When I called Midwest Grounds initially, my ONLY requirement was that they finish the work by a specific date- when my house was being listed. I was very clear that if they couldn't commit to the time frame I would have to go with another provider. I had numerous assurances, verbally and in writing, that the work would be finished by this date. You can see where this is going. They finished the front yard, said they would be back tomorrow (Saturday) to finish the rest. My house was listed Sunday and they didn't come until Monday. When they didn't come back Saturday, I left frantic messages- their reply was that when they said they would be back the next day they "forgot what day it was" and that they didn't normally work Saturday without permission. Given how clear I had been about deadlines, I would have thought that they could have permission to finish off the job-it only took an hour. Of course instead of an apology I just received the remainder of the bill from Terry, the manager of the division. Terry claims he didn't know they weren't going to finish the job and that they never said they needed special permission to work on Saturday. Clearly there are communication difficulties. They were also very unresponsive once the first installment had been paid and they had a contract. As for the work itself, it was mostly ok.....I do have some dead grass strips, unevenly trimmed bushes and some nice lilies which they killed, but the worst of it is the hassle it caused me in listing my house. There are definitely some good and reliable landscaping companies out there. Unfortunately Midwest Grounds is NOT one of them.

"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! We are now looking to have Roberto and his crew back to take a few more projects off of our plate too!

FAQs for plant watering projects in Haverhill, 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. For example, rotating or oscillating sprinkler heads are more expensive than stationary ones, making the cost for one sprinkler head $2.50 to $30 each. 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.
Landscaping costs around $3,500 but varies widely from $200 to $14,000. Factors that play a part in your final landscaping price tag include:
Location
Yard size
Project size
Materials
Land preparation
Type of landscaping
Considering so many factors, it’s not surprising that the overall costs can differ. A typical landscaping project is flower bed installation, which averages between $800 and $3,000. However, landscape lighting installation is a higher-end project, with a price tag of $2,000 to $6,000.
