I was very pleased with the customer service and responsiveness for my initial consultation and conversations. Due to my hours that I work, I was unable to have a consultant come out to the apartment to assess my belongings. However, I reviewed what I had on the phone. I was given a flat hourly rate for three men and a truck. I was very happy with the rate given and given the amount of belongings being moved, we estimated that the total move would be 4-6 hours. This seemed accurate due to the fact that I had just moved the exact same belongings just 7 months prior. During that move back in July, it took 3 hours for 2 men to load the truck and 2 hours for 2 men to unload the truck. I was expecting much of the same from this moving crew. In fact, I was expecting it to go a bit smoother and faster than the previous move because I added an additional mover. Well, the short story is that did not happen. The crew was prompt. They arrived early and were ready for the job. The guys were great. Very personable. I gave them an over view of the items to be moved and immediately there was hesitation on the time expectation for the job. Well, in short, the job began approximately at 8:30 AM and the crew did not finish loading the truck up until after 2:30. We were already well past the anticipated 4-6 hours total for the job. And the truck had yet to move from the first location. It took an additional two plus hours to unload the truck. And this did not include the never mentioned mandatory one hour travel time for a 15 minute drive. It is important to mention that the movers won't move plants or liquids. I was not aware of this information prior to the move so I carried several boxes and plants and moved them in my vehicle. Additionally, my antique hutch was broken in the move. We pointed out the damage to the foreman and the foreman told us that the hinge must have been broken or the screw missing prior to their moving it and also that it would be easy enough for us to fix. All in all, I had budgeted about $700-800 for the movers. I wound up paying over $1500.00 with gratuity. If I had not just had a moving crew only 7 mos. prior, I might think that I might have been mistaken on the time it would take to do the job. However, I had a smaller crew and they took a lot less time. Moving is expensive enough. Paying double what I budgeted for was a major disappointment. .

The tree needed to be trimmed to be clear of the work area for the shed installer. Keller also let us know that trimming the would help the other tree in our yard that was not doing well because the larger tree was blocking too much sun. It would be a thinning of branches to keep the larger tree healthy also. That seemed to work as the smaller tree started sprouting new leave shortly after the other was trimmed.

Great job of cleaning up flower beds, new plantings and mulching. Went above and beyond my expectations. Owner and workers took great care of us. Hired for additional projet.
Unfortunately the wood we need is out of stock; this has been an problem with a half a dozen fencing companies (plants have shut down due to COVID), so not really their fault but my only problem is that there is not a lot of interest in any of them to even suggest "something"........no idea...

From Concept to Completion. Plymouth Nursery & Landscape Co. provides design and build services for projects such as landscape, hardscape, lighting, irrigation, drainage , water features , outdoor kitchens, pavilions, porches and more. After your project has been completed we offer complete maintenance services to protect your investment.
"We hired Plymouth Meeting Nursery to completely transform the exterior landscape of our 100+ year-old home, where we live with our three young children and our ever-faithful golden retriever. As a licensed landscape architect, we approached this project with high standards and were looking for a contractor who offered fair, transparent pricing, excellent craftsmanship, and timely execution. Plymouth Meeting Nursery delivered on all counts. The scope of work was extensive and included the demolition of all existing landscaping, a deck, concrete walkways, fencing, and excess soil. In its place, the team installed new fencing, a beautiful cedar pergola, repointed brickwork on our home, irrigation, a synthetic lawn alongside fresh sod and thoughtfully selected plantings, outdoor lighting, a stunning bluestone patio with brick steps and retaining wall, a brick and bluestone fireplace, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen featuring a grill, sink, ice maker, and refrigerator. The project spanned nearly five months, during which a few scope changes arose. Each one was handled professionally and flexibly by John and his team. Their commitment was clear: the crew showed up consistently and kept the momentum going, which we greatly appreciated. We couldn’t be more proud of the results and highly recommend Plymouth Meeting Nursery for your next outdoor project. They’ve helped us create a space that’s not only functional and beautiful—but truly feels like a new extension of home."

Our kids go to local schools, we shop in the local stores, and coach our children in the community.

FAQs for plant watering projects in West Grove, PA
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
Lawn irrigation is the process of getting water to your lawn, grass and all, for it to grow. There are five main types of lawn irrigation methods:
Manual irrigation puts you in charge of the flow of water. Using a sprinkler head on your hose is best to evenly distribute the water across your entire lawn. This doesn’t take much time but requires you to be physically outside holding the hose.
Above-ground sprinklers attach to your hose and rotate or oscillate around your lawn. Since these are above-ground, they’ll need to be moved when it’s time to mow, and depending on the size of your property, you might need to move it around your yard for full coverage.
In-ground sprinklers are flush with the ground when not in use but pop up above the ground level when it's time to water the lawn. Piping for these sprinklers is all found underground, and there are different types of sprinkler heads for different uses and lawn sizes.
Drip irrigation involves drip lines that are more efficient than sprinklers for more extensive lawns. This involves a lot of digging since they are installed underground, but it makes it easy for you to mow.
Rainwater collection and irrigation uses nature’s precipitation to water your lawn. This option might not be available in every area since semi-reliable rainfall is needed, though the barrels for this system can range from 15 gallons to 10,000 gallons or more.
The cost of a lawn sprinkler system is $2,550 for the average homeowner. However, this price can range from $350 to $5,000 or more, depending on the type of sprinkler system you install, the size of your yard, and the type of sprinkler heads you choose. For example, rotating or oscillating sprinkler heads are more expensive than stationary ones, making the cost for one sprinkler head $2.50 to $30 each. Likewise, a yard that is 1/4 of an acre in size averages a total average price of $2,460; however, a one-acre yard averages a cost of $9,840.
Landscaping costs around $3,500 but varies widely from $200 to $14,000. Factors that play a part in your final landscaping price tag include:
Location
Yard size
Project size
Materials
Land preparation
Type of landscaping
Considering so many factors, it’s not surprising that the overall costs can differ. A typical landscaping project is flower bed installation, which averages between $800 and $3,000. However, landscape lighting installation is a higher-end project, with a price tag of $2,000 to $6,000.
