"Summary: Quality work for the most part, but may shake you down for more money to complete the job, so make sure that you get your contract in writing. Detail: I had just purchased a new home and needed to have an old retaining wall re-built on short notice, as well as have a drain installed due to some erosion causing the wall itself and the brick flower beds below it to become misaligned and lose structural integrity. I contacted a few companies including Eldi Landscaping. After receiving a rather high initial estimate in person of $16,000 to repair the wall, install the drain, and re-align the flower beds at the bottom of the wall, with a 10 year guarantee, I let Eldi know that I would compare his pricing to that of the other companies I reached out to and would let them know if we decided to go with them. He later texted me and lowered his offer to $13,800 to use new material, or $8,800 to do the job with my existing slate. $8,800 was a great price, we were strapped for cash from the new home purchase, and the stone was still in good condition, so I let him know we were on board with that. The work was started quickly and finished over the course of 3 days. The wall looks good and has been holding up well. However, on the last day he called me downstairs and told me that he wasn't going to fix the flower beds at the bottom of the wall unless we paid an extra $2000. I protested this and reminded him that we had discussed the full job being completed, including that section, and that he offered $8800 to complete the job without my prompting him for a lower price. At this point he essentially told me that he wasn't going to complete the job unless we agreed to pay him the extra money. I looked through my texts with him to find something in writing and realized that he was very careful to not mention specifics about the job in writing and kept all the details of the work that he promised would be completed to phone discussions. In the interest of not having them leave the job half done (while we were having this discussion, the wall was torn down and the hill it was built into all dug up), I stupidly agreed to pay him the extra money. I had offers from other contractors that were lower than the $10,800 I ended up paying, and went with Eldi because they offered the lowest price. I may have gone with another contractor if they quoted me what I actually ended up paying. It was pretty much my own fault for not getting our agreement in writing, but I'm a new homeowner without much experience working with contractors and I feel that Eldi took advantage of this to strong arm me out of more money than we agreed to. Additionally, when they left the job, they did not completely clean up, and filled one flower bed with small rocks (which is what we asked for), and the other with patches of grass, small boulders, and dirt that they had torn up from the hill while working. I later had to pay for a dumpster and remove all of this myself. As I said, the work itself turned out pretty good and was completed quickly. But if you end up working with this company, make sure that everything you need done, including a full cleanup, is documented in writing, with a specified price and signatures from both parties. Otherwise you may find yourself the victim of the classic contractor shake down that I unfortunately fell victim to."

"I recently hired Reale Landscaping for a landscaping project, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with their work. From start to finish, they were professional efficient, highly skilled. The team arrived on time, communicated clearly and transform my yard into something truly stunning. They paid close attention to detail, and ensuring every plant stone feature was perfectly placed. Not only was the final result, beautiful but they also cleaned up thoroughly afterwards. It’s clear that they take pride and their craft and I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for top quality landscaping services."

"We met Christian at the HVCC garden show and his pond & waterfall displays, and enthusiasm, caught our attention.  When he came to our yard for an appraisal he immediately had an eye for exactly the best location for a waterfall feature along our garden fencescaping.  His recommendations sounded intriguing so we trusted his vision.  When Christian showed up for the job he had all the building materials he needed, as well as boulders, rocks and stones of all sizes organized by size in pails.  He outlined his plans and convinced me to allow the waterfall feature to take a little more space than I originally had in mind.  I'm so glad he did....if anything, in retrospect, I wish I had agreed to make it even bigger!  I needed to dig out and relocate a whole section of our garden perennials in preparation for the project, but it was worth all the effort.  Oh my gosh, what amazing work Christian does!  In two days (!) he transformed this huge dug out crater of dirt into a natural looking landscape of banked boulders, tiered waterfalls, and little wells of water among "spilling" rocks and stones. He left pockets of dirt for us to personalize with plants and flowers and even finished the details with driftwood and moss he had foraged from woods and riverbanks.  Each of the three waterfalls are uplighted which makes for a mystical look at night.  It seems the happier we were with the ongoing results the more ideas he came up with to please us.  I start and end each day with a cup of coffee by our waterscape, relaxing with the sounds of a running mountain stream.  We are beyond thrilled with the results! Christian is professional, hard working, and responsive to your questions and concerns, and is only a phone call away when you need a little advice about maintenance.  In a time of questionable commitment from contractors it has been a pleasure to have one who lives up to your trust in every possible way. Artists use their favorite medium to create art.....paint, marble, wood, fabric.  Christian creates art from dirt and stone and his vision transforms into a masterpiece. Thank you, Christian.  You are an amazing artist."

"Had to find a new pool person when the man who had been servicing our pool for 26 years suddenly passed away. Took a chance on Aaron after reading all the great and recent reviews. He did not disappoint. Showed up on time and did a nice job in spite of the nagging thunderstorms and downpours. Pretty fair price too. Professional and personable. Glad we found our new pool guy!"

"Robert is a true professional. I contacted him last year for a price, was unable to hire them but Robert kept his promise and price and did a fabulous job. this year. My stamped concrete was way off , like a puzzle Robert made all the slabs 6 of them come back together. Robert used the jack foam method, cant say enough good things about this company. I would have given him a 10 but the reviews stops at 5. Thanks again Dave"
