I have used them but not any longer because they stopped servicing my area. They were very good and I didn't have any complaints. They were a little on the pricey side. Their work was pretty good and they were punctual. There were no problems or issues. I would probably still use them if they hadn't stopped servicing my area.
Description of Work: I used Baldi Gardens for weekly lawn maintenance. They also weeded my beds and did some initial cleanup.

This is the second time we have used Baldi Gardens and this time was just as great as the last time. Ricardo came to the house, and took some measurements. Ricardo then met with us a couple of days later with a complete landscape drawing of our front yard. We liked his suggestions and ask when he could start. He and his crew arrived a couple of days later and finished the job in two days. Ricardo is great to work with and has a real good eye for landscaping. His pricing is very reasonable for the quality job that he provides. We will always call Baldi Gardens anytime we have a landscaping need.
Description of Work: Took out all the old plants and ground cover in the front yard. Replaced with new plants, boulders, crushed granite, cobble stone and mulch. Also did some tree trimming on existing trees.

We haven't had any drainage problems since he came. At least two other companies came out to try to fix the problem, but both failed.
Description of Work: We had drainage problems with rain water backing up to my tile porch. The standing water was going to destroy the grout. He took out some pebbles, and replaced it with crushed granite. He also installed a drain, did some work with one of the gutters, and moved some soil around.

Very well, this was their first time constructing a concrete bridge that spanned an existing 5 foot dry stream. They were very detailed in the placing of steel rebar and forming foundation. Worked very hard to stay on schedule while providing A+ project within budget. Cleaned the site when completed project, removed all excess material and trash. Would highly recommend using Ricardo.

Ricardo, was prompt, punctual and professional. He took detailed measurements of the yard and, noting lighting and architecture, designed a complete landscape plan including hardscape and drainage. When the plan was complete, he returned to the site to go over the plan in detail and answer my questions.

It did not go well. He originally quoted me a price of $718.00 for the grading and the flower beds on the back and side of my home. I was actually charged $1100.00, but he did not install the side flower bed. When I asked him about this, he said he didn't recall our conversation on the matter.

Response from Baldi Gardens Inc
We did for the member exactly what was quoted in the estimate. The estimate was given many months before we did the work. the extra work was not in the estimate. Actually, we did some extra work that same day for him and charged him below the normal rate. The original work was postpone several times by him and was there any questions regarding the work we didn't do. Our apologies to him for the misunderstanding.

Mr. Baldi came to visit on the agreed date and time, proposed a reasonable and inexpensive solution, and delivered it as soon as weather permitted. Besides being talented, knowledgeable and diligent, Mr. Baldi is a charming and caring individual. we are certain that we are not his only clients who would wish to adopt him as a grandfather.
Description of Work: We asked Mr. Baldi if there was a way to deal with seepage from an underground spring. He suggested clearing a small area above the site of the spring and installation of several high water usage plants in a gravel and stone setting.

I called Baldi Gardens to obtain a bid/ideas to upgrade/beautify our existing landscaping. The existing landscaping had been poorly maintained by the previous homeowners and consisted of too many large bushes against the foundation. Baldi was the second bid I received. I received a bid from Smith Lawn and Tree for similar services for $2,000. Ricardo met me approximately 4 days after I called and discussed in detail what I thought and he gave many suggestions. He personally returned a week later with the bid estimate and an outstanding (CAD style) diagram of our front landscaping and what he envisioned. It looked like a great plan. I was amazed when he showed me how much it would cost and my wife and I decided to accept the bid that night. He and his crew came while my wife and I were at work and completed everything in one day. When we got home that night it looked like a completely new house from the front yard. We were very happy. Overall, we had an outstanding experience. Ricardo's bid was $1000 less than the other we received and he was willing to stay within our budget. He suggested ways to use some of our existing landscaping: using the same stone/brick, just adding masonry, keeping some of the same plants, etc. I always felt he was extremely sincere in giving us the best service. We will use Baldi Gardens in the future for any landscaping/trim shrubbing/sprinkler repair work in the future. Great Job!
Description of Work: Planted new shrubs (knock out rose, weeping crepe myrtles, indian hawthorn, patio lorapetalum, japanese boxwoods), added canadian gravel/stones filler to landscape, added masonry to existing brick/stone border, added cobblestone drainage land to existing gutter downspot exit.

This was the most pleasant experience I've ever had with any contractor ever. I wish they could all be like landscape wizard Ricardo Baldi and his magic crew. Our backyard and surrounding pool area was a mess with old stumps, outdated brick and railroad ties and funky rock tiles and ugly concrete. The vegetation was way out of control. We wanted something simple and easy to take care of. We contacted several landscapers from the Angie's list....list. Ricardo Baldi was one of the landscapers we obtained an estimate from. The initial meeting with Ricardo was most pleasant. He has an old world charm about him. Ricardo listened to what few ideas we had and promised to give us an estimate/plan in about two weeks (it was well worth the wait folks). A few weeks later he returned with a plan and we loved it and gave him the go ahead. Ricardo and his crew arrived promptly as promised to begin work. The speed at which this crew worked was unbelievable. They were fast, efficient, focused and all were very polite. They did a heck of a lot of work in a short time. At the end of each day, the crew left the place spotless. As the job was nearing completion, we were so impressed that we asked Ricardo to tear out our old ugly existing patio and replace it with flagstone to match the new one on the other side of the pool. We now have a lovely low maintenance backyard and pool area. Ricardo Baldi and his wonderful crew did a fantastic job and went above and beyond our expectations. Thank you Baldi Gardens, Inc.!!!
Description of Work: Demolish existing landscaping- Add stone steps around pool- Add two stone patios- Add french drain to street- Remove stumps, trees, and old bricks- Add decorative screen to hide pool equipment- Re-landscape back yard and pool area

He called the day before he submitted his complaint. It didn't give us any time to respond. We are still going through the heavy season and need sometimes a few days to return calls as our schedule permits. We apologized for the inconvenience we caused. The call was on Friday and we were off for the week end. Once again, our apologies. Ricardo Baldi, President BALDI GARDENS INC.

Mr. Baldi gave me an estimate within 2 days of my request. He scheduled the date and then contacted me when he was able to do it sooner. When I saw the work he had done I thought I was at the wrong house - the work was that good! It has made a huge difference to the look of my house and will help with maintenance in the future.
Description of Work: Built stone edging - added an additional layer to existing stone with mortar in between stones; approximately 160 feet of edging total.

They arrived on time. Mr. Baldi went over his plan that we had agreed to, then started the project. The job was finished in the time he said it should take. His crew cleaned up the area before leaving and hauled off the excess dirt. I would say it went as planned and I am pleased with the result.

EXCELLENT. Giuseppe Baldi is VERY professional and you can see the attention to detail in their work. I especially liked that Giuseppe was out there supervising and working with the crew - unlike other landscapers I have used. I have been getting a lot of work done to this house and have hired many different contracters - including another landscape company for some earlier work - and Baldi Gardens was the best experience I had bar none.
Description of Work: I already had the landscaping plan that I had come up with for my yard with my HOA. I hired Baldi Gardens to implement the plan. They pulled out my old shrubs (9 red tipped photinias - 4 of them very large). They planted 39 new shrubs and mulched the bed.

This company is very easy to work with and reliable. They come to garden all of our beds, trees, and shrubs monthly and keep our rosebushes beautiful. They even e-mail the bills to me, which is nice to always have an electronic copy of the bills. Mr. Baldi and his son take pride in their work and one of them is always present with the rest of their work crew. They clean up after themselves and I have even seen them skimming the leaves that fell into the pool after they have been trimming, which is really appreciated.

I was very pleased with Mr. Baldi's professionalism as well as his suggestions. I am looking forward to seeing my flower beds fill out and look more diverse than before. The cost was more than I wanted to pay, but I cut corners on the last landscaper and was not pleased with the outcome. I would definitely use this company again.
Description of Work: Mr. Baldi came to the house to give me an estimate on reworking three flowerbeds. He arrived as scheduled and came back another day to give me a drawing of suggestions as well as an estimate. The work was done in one day as promised. The flower beds look very nice and time will tell how the plants fill out and perform.

I can't believe how efficiently Mr. Baldi and his crew worked! They had everything completed in four days and with great quality. Mr. Baldi provided us with an estimate within a week and they did the work in just a few days, at exactly the quoted price. We are already thinking of additional work we will be calling him for in the future! I have even recommended Baldi Gardens to a friend already.
Description of Work: Baldi Gardens overhauled our backyard and upgraded our front yard. In front we had a path put in, and flower beds built up. Backyard consisted of complete makeover: installed plants, trees, sod, built a path and extended our patio.

Giuseppe Baldi responded within 24 hours of my sending an email request for estimate, and came out that same day to do the estimate. Once I understood what they could do and the pricing, I immediately agreed to have the services done. They came back the very next day to do the work, which included two separate crews--one to trim and weed while the other installed grass sod. Mr. Baldi was present (and working) the entire time, which was approximately 7 hours of nonstop work. The crew was very professional and everything was done perfectly. They were willing to do additional items (we had a climbing rose that they were able to set up with wiring along the house) as requested. In addition, the company does regular weekly mowing service which I am now having done. The final price was on target with the estimate---even though I did have them do a couple of additional items along the way. Also, the company performed work for a relative who lives nearby, and that experience was similar to mine. Overall, this was the best landscape/lawn service experience I have had since purchasing my home 11 years ago. Friendly, willing to do whatever they can to make customers happy, and reliable. It doesn't get any better.
Description of Work: Lawn/Garden maintenance in front and back yards to include weeding flower beds, trimming shrubs, trimming groundcovers, spraying for fungus, and additional weed chemical treatments. Also had new grass sod installed over entire back yard.

Mr. Baldi and his crew deserve their Angie's List '08 Super Service Award.
Description of Work: I called Mr. Ricardo Baldi regarding replacing the grass in my deeply shaded back yard.He visited the area in question and e-mailed me an estimate for this work that evening .He suggested mondo grass. He started my job on time with a good-sized crew of hard-working young men which removed the dead leaves and tilled the soil before planting the grass. Ricardo was on site at all times and available to answer my every question. They cleaned up after they finished their work. I would definitely highly recommend Baldi Gardens to anyone without the slightest reservations.
