WALSH LANDSCAPING

The new-to-us-home suffered utter neglect in many areas, including the grounds. Ground cover was plant wherever grass could've been to avoid maintenance. That part was overgrown and probably home to all kinds of insects and select vermin. A centerpiece magnolia tree was so overgrown that it was 10-15' taller than the house and almost as wide, and its roots were killing almost everything planted nearby its trunk. Everything was removed, an irrigation vendor was called in and sod was laid that, one year later, is the envy of my neighbors. All of this comes at a price of course, and Walsh isn't cheap by any means, but we do see him driving by from time to time to check the work of his people. There's value in that, too. Walsh is licensed to apply chemicals and fertilizers so it's one-stop shopping that makes his service attractive.

It turned out to be a disaster. They did an okay job. They didn't do a great job. They left hand prints on my house, from the mulch that they laid. I only used them for that one service. They came out at another point and started performing another service on my lawn that I never asked for or ordered or anything. I had never agreed upon it. The service they performed is called aeration, where they punch holes in the lawn. They punctured our sprinkler system and our dog fence, which caused us to have to do repairs. We never ordered the service. We told them to stop. Then, they sent us a bill for that. It was ridiculous. It was not a pleasant experience.

He is fast and timely.  We have used him in the past.  We had tried a couple of different landscapers in the past but weren't happy with them.  So we decided to go back with him.  He always does a good job.  We will probably use them again in the future.

The workers were great, very nice and friendly, and they did an excellent job. When I received the bill, however, it was $90 higher than the estimate, which I had thought was a firm price. When I questioned the owner about this, he unhappily agreed to accept the estimated price.

They are not cheap but they seem to be doing nice job. We used them several times.

They did something but they put a lot of plants that did not work out in the area. I told them that we have a lot of sun in our area but they installed some plants that could not respond to the sun like they were burnt out because the sun was too strong; but they have well intentions and well meaning.

When I called for an estimate for weekly mowings, I received a prompt response. Frank told me over the phone that weekly mowings would be $40.00, but if my lawn was to be mowed every other week then he would charge $45.00 for bi-weekly cuts. He said that in May and June the grass would be growing too fast for bi-weekly mowings. I agreed to weekly mowings, but am not being charged the stated price. I have called the office on three separate occasions, but have not received a return call. I know that Walsh Landscaping is highly rated so am very surprised at this. There was other work that I was interested in having done, but have not been able get through to discuss it. I did speak to a young man in the office about a month ago and told him that there was a mistake on my bill and he told me that he would discuss it with Frank and get back to me. I have no idea if he ever conveyed my message, but there has been no reply to a voicemail message that I left last week either. I intend to pay what I owe, but only the agreed upon amount. I would like to know if Walsh Landscaping will continue to cut my lawn for no more than $40.00 per visit. I did mention that I am an Angieslist member and expected to receive the Angieslist discount. I've always been impressed by work done by Walsh Landscaping so when I saw that there was a 10% discount, hiring them was a no-brainer. I really felt that the amount billed was a mistake until I received a second bill now I'm not so sure. I'm still hoping to receive a corrected bill.

Frank responded immediately to my request for an estimate. He came and walked the yard the day before our appointment and came fully prepared with his estimate and a time schedule to do the work, this was 2 days after my original inquiry. Time was scheduled for the following week and the crew actually arrived 2 days early, with a bobcat, trucks, crew and equipment. Work was completed in the 1 day promised time frame. Not only was I completely satisfied with the final results but multiple neighbors came over to tell me that they were amazed with the end result.

We have used Walsh Landscaping for many years. This was a job we had kept pushing out but finally decided to do. We feel that it enhances the perceived value of our house and are happy with the work that Walsh did. They are not the cheapest around but their work is excellent...you get what you pay for!

Walsh Landscaping sent 3 guys over to 'spring clean' my lawn and yard in preparation for a birthday party I was throwing the following weekend. The guys were professional, courteous, asked question if they were uncertain of something, and were appreciative when I bought them sandwiches for lunch! The yard looked beautiful! The only faux pas were a couple handprints on my siding from the brown mulch - didn't come off easily, but Frank Walsh himself came over and took care of it. Looking forward to using them next year.

They do good work, I would recommend them.
