Shady Oaks Farm and Landscaping, Inc.

Called AL several times to fix or adjust the system. Left messages at his home and cell. He never returns phone calls. He told me I needed a booster pump to increase my water pressure. His plumber friend came down installed a system cost thousands $, when activated it messed up my regeneration system by drawing salt from the filter. System didn't water the areas most needed. Called and e-mailed the plumber friend many times but he never called back. Had new plumber fix it. Al ageed in contract to open & close the system. After closingit in Sept he never came back. Both of them took the money and ran. Do not hire him for watering system.

I had the worst experience ever with this contractor. Original contract date of 3/19 paid half up front....no work performed until Late May, and that was a fraction of the total work to be done. They refused to refund money after a request to terminate contract, and stated work would be performed for the original deposit amount and no more. I did run into some trouble with the town conservation, which halted work for 2 months (July/Aug), but following approval to restart work I have not seen them on the site. I offered financial incentives to complete the work, but they still have not come back to the site.

Excellent and professional. Stated cost and timeline and stuck to it. Andrew was excellent and I would refer him. It was a pleasure doing business with someone who completed the job from A-Z.

Albert & his team did a great job on-time within budget. Warranty on all his services for 1 year. completed job June 15th 2010. Now we just have to wait for the lawn to come in as he promised. I would rate this contractor highly at this point.

Did an excellent job removing 9 shrubs from my yard. They were on time and competly cleaned up. There were no branches left on the prperty. Would recommend them.

Everything done as quoted in email. Excellent job.

His reply was immediate, he gave me a quote within a 24 hour time period. He mowed the lawn within 24 hours of the request. Excellent Job.

Al was very honest and forthright about his performance. He struggled at first to meet the proposed deadline, but quickly managed to complete the project, after restructuring his crew. The work however, was excellent. He built a French drain and lay a flagstone walkway along the side of our condominium. His attention to detail and pride in his work produced a beautiful and functional piece of landscaping the has significantly improved our curb appeal and as we had requested kept the rain out of our basement. Good Stuff!

Albert was responsive and came when he said he would. He charged a much more reasonable rate than I had been quoted by other people.

He did an excellent job on the landscaping and I will definitely use them again.

A SEEMINGLY POLITE HONEST GUY.....GETS RIGHT TO WORK.............ASKS TO WALK AROUND AND SEE IF THIERE IS ANYTHING ELSE TO BE DONE OR ANYTHING HE HAS MISSED......... I WOULD PREFER THAT A COPY OF THE INVOICE WITH ALL THAT IS TO BE DONE AND THE COST BE SPELLED OUT PRIOR TO THE JOB BEING DONE.......I DID RECEIVE AN INVOICE WITH WHAT WAS DONE, QUANTITY OF ANY ITEM NEEDED AND THE TOTAL ONLY....AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE JOB. COMPLETED THE REST OF WHAT I NEEDED DONE, TODAY, TUESDAY, JUNE 12, 2007....NO PROBLEMS.......JUST MAKE SURE HE KEEPS SMILING........ THANK YOU

Albert was very responsive, enthusiastic, and reasonably priced. The design was beyond what I expected. Albert followed-up with us after everything was complete just to make sure we were happy.
