"I don’t normally post reviews but this one I HAVE TO! The sad part is before this encounter I referred 3 different people who needed flooring or painting to him & immediately had to reach out to them & warn them of this final interaction. First off he broke multiple items in my home, never replaced the outlets they removed to paint, & left areas unpainted or needing touch ups which I did myself & I had an item go missing which I was willing to let go of (but now after the threat made I'm not sure if my items were broken, missing or simply stolen)……in addition he had no real schedule, they showed up whatever day/time they wanted, if they showed up at all! Then things took a turn for the worse when I asked him to come back and fix my railings that were in great condition when I purchased the home 12-21-23 & it PASSED inspection (because it would be a safety hazard it would not have passed inspection if they were not in good & stable condition) that his guys took out while doing the flooring. Mind you, I expressed to him the reason I am requesting that he comes back and fix it is because I had a child bump into it and almost fall through the railing on the second floor down the steps. When I text to ask if he can come back to fix it, first I was told they were already like that, then he said they were falling out as they walked up the steps, THEN I was called a b**** & he said “I’d be lucky if he doesn’t come back to rob me after all the work he did for me (imagine how uneasy that would make any female knowing this group of grown men had access to my home for over a month!) then he said that I wouldn’t even be able to prove he did any work for me since I paid him cash & we didn’t have a contract”. All the while I have direct messages including discussions of payment, he text me pictures & vice versa, & he posted the job on his FB! When I say I was FUMING!!! The lack of professionalism, lack of accountability and to make threats?! Thank God for pictures, text messages, FB & witnesses! I waited to post this in hopes that once I calmed down from my initial reaction I’d have a different perspective on how to approach this. The saddest part is that this could have VERY easily & respectfully been resolved ??‍♀️. Unless you have the time/ability to micromanage any & every thing he does, DO NOT HIRE!!!! He "might come back & rob you"! (Disgusting to say even out of anger!) Take a look at the before & after below. P.S Also the same closet he posted on his page had to be redone by a different contractor because he didnt actually screw anything onto the studs but instead used anchors & made pointless holes in my wall."

Service we offer- Mowing Landscaping Mulching Fencing-install and removal

"The owner, Anthony Cerroni, came to my property on 5/14/2021 to provide an estimate for lawn mowing services and said to contact him when I was ready to have the work done and that he could come at any time since he is only 8 minutes away. I sent him a text message on 5/21/2021 inquiring when he would be able to mow my lawn, but he did not reply. I then called him on 5/25/2021 asking if he could mow my lawn that week, but he also failed to respond. Telling me to contact him when I needed the work performed and then not bothering to respond to my text and voicemail messages demonstrates a complete lack of professionalism and accountability, as well as, the fact that his word has absolutely no value."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

When it comes to which stone is better, crushed or natural gravel, it all depends on the project. Crushed stone is a great base and filler material for projects like retention walls, concrete slabs, driveways, pipes, and drains. Gravel is a common choice for visually attractive landscaping projects like walkways, above-ground drainage systems, patios, and garden borders.

Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. On the inexpensive end, red and black mulch are about $35 to $40 per cubic yard, and are typically made from recycled waste wood like shredded old pallets or deck material. Cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch cost anywhere from $100 to $120 per cubic yard. A pro can help you determine the type of mulch most suitable for your landscaping needs.

It depends. High-end colored mulch can be fairly costly. However, you'll have to replace less-expensive natural mulches, like pine needles and cedar mulch, more frequently. 

The cost is balanced out somewhat, though, as although you'll have to replace colored mulch less often, you'll have to replenish nutrients in your soil more frequently to make up for the decrease in organic matter and nitrogen from the mulch.

Pea gravel is the most common type of gravel, and it can be made of limestone, granite, basalt, sandstone, and many other types of rock. The strength in gravel comes from the distribution across the stones, so while one rock type may not be particularly strong (like sandstone), the matrix of small rocks that is gravel can become incredibly strong when installed correctly. 

Since you’ll likely be digging a trench to install your yard drainage system, this is a good time to complete other tasks that involve digging up your yard, including: Sprinkler system installation Lawn reseeding Regrading your yard Redesigning your landscaping If your drain is under a walkway or driveway, your contractor must also remove those materials. This is a great time to consider upgrading your hardscaping features, especially if they’re nearing the end of their life span.
