Mr. [Member Name Removed] contacted us by email on Sunday 11/24/18 at 4:15pm inquiring about plowing services. We replied the next morning (Monday) at 8:24am to let him know we are not able to take on his plowing. He then called our office later that day and asked again about plowing. I explained that our plow routes are full and also our policy is that we only plow for clients we provide landscaping for. Also, earlier this season Mr. [Member Name Removed] requested a quote for a landscaping project. We provided the quote in a timely manner and then he asked to have us come back and take new measurements and revise the whole quote because he reduced the scope of work. It took us about 2 weeks to provide revised quote as our Estimator was very busy and backlogged at that time. We provided the revised quote and Mr. [Member Name Removed] said he would think it over. We followed up on the quote a week later to see if he had any questions and he said he was not moving forward with the project because it took us too long to get back to him with the revision.Alicia C.

Mixed. Good and bad. First job they did was good so I hired them again. The next job I am very dissappointed in and I dont think they are going to fix it ot my liking. now after paying a large sum, Im going to have to do it myself.. They take a long time to come out to quote and then getting the actual quote after they have seen the job ill take another two weeks. I really want a permanent lanscaper but Im not sure that this is going to be the company.

We have spoken with [Member Name Removed] and discussed her review. We asked her to revise the review so that what she wrote is not misinterpreted. However, as of today she has not done so. We have not requested a deposit and [Member Name Removed] has not been invoiced for this project yet-therefore, she has not had to pay anything to date. The project is not completed; she had to do some work on her own prior to us completing our work. A quote was provided prior to us doing any work. [Member Name Removed] agreed to have this work done at the price quoted. She told us that the work needed to be done within a week's time. We bent over backwards re-routing crews to meet her very tight timeline and were working at her property on the very next business day. Upon completion of this work, we met with her and she expressed that she had thought more was included. We did not want a negative experience for her so we agreed to do this work at no additional cost to her. We have been waiting on her to let us know when she is ready for our return. [Member Name Removed] called us today (10/2/17) to say she is now ready.Jim L.

I have worked with Fine for years (going on 10) and have engaged them on a wide variety projects from the simple (weekly mowing service and lawn treatments) to the complex (design and build out of a stone patio area, rebuild of front steps with stone masonry, creation of backyard play area, etc.). Aaron, Jeannie and the entire staff (both on-site and office) have always been professional, responsive, punctual, honest, fair and courteous. Their work is first rate and if there are ever any issues they are addressed quickly and appropriately. There are a lot of choices out there for landscaping services but you won't do better than you will with Fine.
Description of Work
Many services including mowing, snow removal, landscaping, tree removal, plantings, hardscape projects, firewood delivery and stacking, creation of a play area with playground-grade wood chips, irrigation, etc.

Mixed bag. The workmanship was of good quality. My issue is the miscommunication . My understanding is that the price included the hydroseeding of the leveled area, but they told me it was only on the area where their equipment caused damages. I've also instructed them to level my compost pile , and they missed that completely . Also, they decided to work on a couple of days when it was pouring and extremely muddy. Their tractor tore up my lawn really badly - which they repaired afterwards but it was still painful to watch .
Description of Work
Install around 90 yards of mixed compost/loam and level an area of the yard (approx 7000 sq ft) where we trees taken down. Repair any damage made by their equipment and hydroseed.

[Member Name Removed], Thank you for posting this review. It helps to have feedback from our clients. When your wife met with our Estimator Bill, she indicated that certain areas were going to be planted with trees which would mean they would be planting beds. Those areas were not included in the hydroseeding price and the written contract that she signed clearly stated the square footage of hydroseeding which did not include those areas. We had given your wife a start date (as she had requested this) and due to excessive rain in the forecast we pushed the job back. Then we were still having rain (it was 6 days in a row of rain that week) and decided it would be best to complete the work because we felt she would be upset if we kept pushing the job back. Most clients don't like to keep have work delayed like that. We knew that we would make any repairs to the lawn areas necessary and had thought it was the best decision to do the work then so your wife didn't have to wait another whole week. You mention we were supposed to level your compost pile but that is not included anywhere in your signed contract. I'm sorry, but I know nothing about this issue. Also when I spoke to your wife upon job completion she never mentioned this to me. Again, thank you for your feedback. Best, Jeannie Fine, PresidentChristine M.

The company crew arrived at my house for fall yard clean-up (409 Dedham ave, Needham MA 02492).I expected to see a Leaf and Lawn Vacuum machine like any other professional landscaping company, but two laborers with buckets, rakes and blower. I already made piles of leaves, but there was no vacuum machine, and they blow everything again to move 7 feet closer to the truck! (45 minutes waste of time)Anyway, I noticed with their approach and tools, they cannot even clean half a yard. I got involve with my own rake like a labor to speed up the process (!). Putting leaves in bucket and the truck was a very slow process.After two hours, they left with not even half of the yard done.I contacted the company for a visit and evaluation. The company representative (Bill) was also shocked with the situation, and took pictures to ask the owner for a resolution. However, the owner contacted me today (12/8/2016) and notified me that the deal means just labor, not the vacuum machine for Fall clean up, unless I pay extra (of course, not through Angie’s list!).This is just stealing money from people. To express my frustration for such a deceiving business model, please let me make a simple example: What would be your reaction if a professional carpenter charges you based on an hourly rate ($100), but use a hand saw for a big job.A professional landscaping company should use professional tools to speed up the process. The owner said, with Angie’s list deal, the company does not provide vacuum! What does that mean?I would be pleased to send you pictures of this small yard (half of yard has not been touched at all (full of leaves) , the rest of that is not really cleaned.)

[Member name removed] purchased 4 labor hours of landscaping through E-Commerce. Our Manager Bill Reynolds went out and met with [Member name removed] to discuss his purchase prior to us performing the work. Bill explained that the whole property could not be cleaned up in the time that he purchased but [Member name removed] was not interested in receiving a quote for what the additional manhours would cost. We sent a 2 man crew out on November 30th, 2016 and they worked on site for 2 hours. They cleaned up leaves and cleared brush. The client met the crew on site so that he could show them where he wanted them to start (as previously stated he was well aware the entire yard could not be cleaned in the 4 manhours of labor he purchased so he had requested to show the crew the area he wanted them to start in). [Member name removed] expressed frustration once the job was completed and said that we should have been able to clean his whole yard in 1 hour. Bill went out and met with [Member name removed] once again. He stated that his neighbor had a crew come in with 2 men for 1 hour and the yard was left spotless. Bill explained that he was not comparing apples to apples. The neighbor’s yard is manicured and professionally landscaped. [Member name removed] yard was overrun with brush, debris, leaves, etc. and not been maintained at all. [Member name removed] also stated that we were supposed to remove all debris off site. Bill said we did remove the yard waste while on site. [Member name removed] stated that we left pressure treated timbers, concrete chunks, metal fence posts and a gas can, as well as pvc pipe and trash on site-Bill explained that is not yard waste and we are not responsible to remove it. [Member name removed] asked how much it would cost to have an 36-38” Oak tree removed. Bill said a ballpark price would be $1200-1500. [Member name removed] stated that if we removed this tree and charged him only $1000 he would not give us a poor review on Angie’s List and if we don’t do this tree removal for that price he will give a us very bad review online. In all our years in business (almost 30!) we have never been threatened/blackmailed like that. On December 9th, 2016 I called [Member name removed] and we discussed his dissatisfaction. He kept saying that we did not accomplish much work in the 2 hours because we did not have professional equipment. He stated the crew had blowers, buckets and a tarp to gather leaves on. I explained that it was not buckets but large landscaping barrels and that the tarp is a traditional way to remove leaves. He said that he paid for a vacuum to come and he did not get that service. I explained that he in no way purchased the vacuum service. We do have 2 vacuums but we did not sell that service on E-Commerce. I explained that it does not mention on the E-Commerce site anything about a vacuum service and that he received the exact service that he purchased.Christine F.

They are supposed to be back this coming Mon. There was no cost to do the quote, but they told me that the deal I purchased was to be for 6 hours labor. They were going to send out 2 guys for 3 hours each and that the work I needed done would take longer than that. To me it should not take any more than 3 hours. The guy who came out was very professional.

I had used the company for about 6 years. The office was very close to my home and I really got to know the staff over the years. They were very personable and regular people. It is a family owned business. They were great with the cleanup after each visit. The staff was very nice. There was one occasion when the staff was plowing and bumped my car. It was just an accident and he owned right up to it. They were happy to pay for the damage to be repaired. I never had an issue getting them out for a service at all. They came out automatically after so many days for the lawn mowing. They always showed up when they said they would. I recommended them to my neighbor and they were equally satisfied.
Description of Work
I hired the company to mow the lawn and would plow the driveway in the winter. When we were getting ready to sell the house they did some mulching and did a spring cleanup each year.

We received estimates from three companies. Fine's pricing was just slightly below the others and their proposed turnaround time was shorter so we hired them over the competition. They came within the promised time frame, and we were impressed with how quickly they completed the job. Our backyard looked completely renovated: they removed hideous and cumbersome stones and bushes as well as slate which had been installed by previous owners. This was done in less than two days. In place of these things, we now have grass, which (after following the appropriate instructions) is already flourishing. Our yard looks bigger and better. I would recommend Fine Landscaping for any major projects.
Description of Work
Removed slate and stone from a terrible "patio" and some sort of unexplained sand pit in the backyard of our new home and laid down grass. They also dug up and removed massive stones of which we were not even aware.

Fine provided a beautiful design with several different types of trees and plantings that gave us a beautiful yard while also providing the increased privacy we wanted. Everyone was very professional and the owner made several visits to the site to ensure the work was being done to his high standards. When one tree was felt to be too close to the others in a row, they replanted to tree to even out the space. They are very professional and we are extremely pleased and would highly recommend.
Description of Work
Landscape design and installation of plantings to increase privacy on property. Also graded and seeded new section of lawn that was previously a play area and did tree removal.

After taking down a number of pretty good sized hemlock trees in my yard, the trunks of which I stacked into wood piles, I was left with a pretty huge pile of branches to deal with on my relatively small lot. I looked into renting a chipper, renting a dumpster, etc., and was discouraged to find all of these options costing several hundred dollars. I couldn't imagine that paying someone else to do a job would cost less than doing it myself, but looking at the chipper and dumpster costs, I figured it couldn't hurt to see what a landscaper would charge. Despite limited reviews on Angie's List, I called Fine Landscaping, mainly because they are located in my town. I was told on the phone that a rep would come out that day, and later that same day I heard back with a quote of $80. It was so reasonable I had to ask them to say it again to be sure I heard right. I gave them the go-ahead, and by the time I got home the very next day the monster pile was gone, the paved area where it had been swept and hosed down, cleaner than it had been before I even started my little project. Excellent work for a very reasonable price!

They were great to deal with on the phone, actually i fille dout a quote request online and they came by on their own to look at the property and then followed up with a detailed quote via email. Great customer service and the price was $100 cheaper than another landscaper I had come to do a quote. I thought the quality was great.

They did a Spring Clean up of our front and back yards, and trimmed our bushes and hedges and mowed the lawn. They did a great job and took away all of our yard debris and really cleaned up the yard.
