"We contacted Sage as we used him in the past. He came in and provided an estimate on work mentioned above. The estimate was for about $7000 with an understanding that placement of mulch was somewhat open-ended and may have some over-run. Once the agreement was made the work was done pretty expediently. A large team of workers and equipment descended on the property and expanded the lot, cut trees, moved boulders and repaired the fence. No problems here.
The shrub ( big one ) that had to be moved, was not in luck. They moved it and placed it was essentially above the ground making and mound around it. The shrub could not gets its roots into the soil as it was too high and promptly died. It was unfortunate, but overall not a big deal.
Mulching however was a big deal. Keep in mind that the job was taking place in January when the sun rises at about 7am and goes down at about 4:30pm. So, you have about 8 hours of light. We were charged for 3 days of work with 3 workers working 12 hour days. According to Sage that included 1 hour of travel time to the site, 1 hour of travel time back and 1 hour for lunch. Why does it take an hour to drive 7 miles from their location to ours and why do we have to pay for their lunch time remains unknown. Overall, placement of mulch cost us about $7000 in addition to the original estimate which included mulching.
We firmly believe that we were overcharged for mulching. However, it is hard to prove since based on prior experience with Sage we assumed that their charges are accurate. Let's assume for a moment that the charged were accurate. You have an original estimate of $7000, you (the contractor) see that the job will have a significant (100%) overrun. Wouldn't it be a good idea to call your client and tell them that? Otherwise, what is the point of even having an estimate?
Needless to say, we wouldn't use Sage ever again, nor recommend him to anyone.

"They did a wonderful job! Contacted us within 30 min of the post (one of two to reach out, the other was several days late). This was followed by an in person meeting 15 minutes after. With our prior company we had issues with cutting in the rain, mowing too fast and leaving tracks, leaving large clumps of grass clippings, casually would skip weeks of cutting for no reason (not raining and even at the property around the corner), even mowing our garden, etc. though we have only had one cutting, it seems they are much more diligent and caring. Even from our talks they right away understood the concept of not cutting in the rain and adjusting the schedule to a change in day vs a week if they need to reschedule due to conditions. Today, not only was the grass cut, but they really took the time to cut down stubborn weeds our prior company had ignored (even moving furniture to do so and putting it back). Our patio and walkways even looked 1,000x better. I thought I had lost it. The owner is on site and works with the team, which is something I personally value. I can’t speak to what caused our last company’s care to deteriorate after years of service and speaking with them about “simple things”, but the owner was hardly ever with his team—maybe came to our property 2 times a year (if that). (Thank you so much!!! Looking forward to a much less stressed summer with less time dedicated to cleaning up and fixing our yard!)"

Lawns FAQs, answered by experts

Hiring a leaf removal company is a reliable way to get rid of a lot of leaves in your yard. Some companies offer a full range of yard cleaning services, while others may only haul away the leaves you gather and bag yourself. If you prefer the DIY route, you can try mulching leaves with your mower, using a leaf blower to collect them, using a leaf tarp to bag them, and more.

Yes, many services offer environmentally friendly disposal options.

Yes, but it depends on what you have planted in yours and the extent of the damage. Hardier shrubs and plants with droopy leaves have a better chance of bouncing back, but do go ahead and cut back any broken branches or damaged portions. Fertilizer can help, but wait until you spot new growth before you feed any plants. 

You may need to lay sod on the areas you dug up once you get the okay from the contractor. It will take about 30 to 45 days for the sod to take root. Consult a local sod installer to get an accurate estimate of the timeline of your specific yard-enhancement project.

The growth of tall fescue grass often causes clumps of grass in your lawn. Avoid pulling up the clumps, as it won’t effectively remove them. Instead, dig out clumps and their roots when you notice them early in the growing season. Herbicides can also treat grass clumps, but they can also affect other plants you might not want to kill, so use them sparingly and always follow manufacturer instructions.
