Russ Bomberg Landscaping Co

.

Yes, they have done a good job every time.
Replaced my front lawn in fall of 2014 and maintain if for me.
They do not ride over it with a huge riding mower; rather they 
cut it with a modest sized electric mower and keep the height
at a good length. My neighbors are always asking, "Who put in
your new lawn and who takes care of it?"

I had high hopes for Russ, he showed up looked like the real deal and spoke like he knew his stuff. He was the opposite of a couple mexicans with a pickup, he looked a few notches above that, which is exactly what I was looking for. 
But what happened was: He contacted me, everything was sounding great, he came to give me my estimate, we spoke about what could & would be done. It seemed like we hit it off and he gave me confidence. But's that's when things went down hill. He adamantly said that he'd get a quote over to me in 1 business day. But it was only after chasing him down for 2 weeks (with more promises in the middle) that I finally got a phone call from him that wasn't my quote, but said he just didn't want to do the job. He made it sound as if what he came to see, quote, and agree upon with me, was now somehow beneath him. Mind you the whole time I'm waiting to get my yard back, waiting to open my pool, thinking I can depend on the guy, all in the MIDDLE OF SUMMER, where he kept leading me on- only to leave me hanging without so much as a courtesy call, instead. 
Bottom Line:
If the job isn't for you- Fine, there's nothing wrong with that. He said he's a landscaper, not a weed puller, which is totally fine and even understandable in some regards. But don't lead me on and tell me you're working on it, make me waste time, and not give me so much a courtesy call without having to chase you down for an answer. A simple "Hey, I'm not going to be able to do your job" would have done it. Or better yet, maybe know the job's not for you while you're there on site, looking at it first hand, and don't lead your customer on to begin with. Maybe Russ is the greatest landscaper around, but neither I nor anyone I know will ever find out because of the run around business.

We moved in towards the end of the season and with no lawn equipment or experience, so we were very happy to have Russ. He came every 10 days or so to mow the lawn, clean up debris, rake and remove leaves from our lawn from October - December. Work was great, price was fair and always professional, we'll certainly use him again.

Russ Bomberg Landscaping is great! As such, these guys are in demand. If you're in a rush, it maybe difficult to nail them down on short notice.
But if plan in advance, Russ Bomberg Landscaping is the way to go!

Quote was never received. Instead, a handwritten note from another landscaper had been left stating that the owner could not fit vehicle down my narrow, dead-end street. That's understandable but the owner did not bother to inform me and left it to the referred landscaper. I called that landscaper and my message was not returned.

Russ is great, he is friendly and always does a very professional job. He always makes sure the customer is happy and satisfied. I have known him for over 8 years and he is consistent with his services and keeps all of his customers happy all summer long!

I would recommend Russ to lay sod if you're interested in doing that. His team are nice, professional and efficient. I wouldn't use him to do any upkeep on your lawn fertilization, however. Wish Russ would respond more promptly. Feel bad about writing this review but it is what it is.

He is good and clean. He is dependable.

Russ did our lawn for about 14-15 years--- always did a fine job......if one of his men accidentally broke a pot or whatever, Russ always apologized and repaid me promptly for the item....Over 15 years Russ and his crew did an excellent job and if I hadn't moved, he still would be my lawn service person. I highly recommend Russ.

He's a great guy, we've used him in the past. It went excellent. He was very reliable and very efficient. He was very reasonable. He was recommended to us by a friend and we were very happy with him.

He's done it for 20-30 years and he's very good. He is a very nice guy and he is very reliable. His people sometime trim a little more off the trees than the tree would like. I guess that is called collateral damage. He's good and my wife says the price is fair. He comes every week. He does the spring and fall cleanup. We don't even have to call him. If there has been a storm, suddenly someone shows up. He does the lime and insect protection. I'm allergic to grass and I stay away from it and my wife takes care of dealing with them. They have good people. We used him at our old house and then continued at this house. We are on an hill and they do it all.

Russ is always very responsive and does really good work....occasionally you need to talk to him about what you want done or how to do it if you have special circumstances (we did), but overall he is excellent and I recommend him to anyone asking about yard work in the Montclair,Bloomfield, Glen Ridge, Verona, Caldwell, NJ areas.

The hedge trimming was a big job and Russ honored the original estimate even though the job turned out to be harder than expected. The hedges are very tall and the tops could have been done more neatly, but I was satisfied with the overall execution of the job and the professionalism shown.

They are in their second year of caring for our property

He is great. He is very responsive and does a great job.
