I hired Johnny to do some hardscape work for me. We agreed to the proposal and the timeline and decided to move forward with the job. The job was not completed due several factors: He was either not paying his staff or underpaying them, he had his girlfriend showing to to the job site, he would show up late, do little work and leave early, all the time asking for more deposits. He and his worker would smoke drop the cigarette butts, eat, drink and drop empty containers in the backyard. When he did work, the work was rushed, poorly done and when corrected he would get defensive , showing not the slightest iota of humility. The lies, unprofessionalism and dishonesty were unreal : I would hear him on my backyard camera audio negotiating with other homeowners to do work for them while doing my job. Then the kicker: After several days no call, no show, he told me that he had Covid and was unavailable. His worker told me that was a lie and that he took his girlfriend and her mother to a concert. He also told me that he was enlisting in the armed services and that's why he couldn't complete the job. His worker also said that was another lie. He came to me property after some strong exchanges and removed his tool and left, without even discussing with me that he could no longer complete this job. I serious contemplate suing him to recover the money paid him for work promised and was undone, but decided that this experience would be best used as a learning experience. Beware of this person. Ask for references whom you can call and ask to speak to some of his current workers, you may just get a chance to avoid the disaster that unfolded with me. If you decide to proceed with him , pay him only after the work is done and hold him to the timeline for completion agreed upon.

Started out good. Laid down rock and Planted 12 plants. Very haphazard. It's been 3 months now and I have a pile of rocks in my driveway and an unfinished project. Fully paid (my fault) Scammers! Won't return my personal tools he's admitted to having. No filings with MA Sec of State corporate division. Not a legitimate business. BEWARE! He talks a good game but it's all a con.
Response from Black Lab Landscapes & Contacting Co.
"Full payment was never recieved, I mowed your lawn several times for free, and built such a report with you that you invited us into your house multiple times to hangout. You're writing a vindictive review because you can't afford the services you asked for. Your my only 2 star review for a reason...I'm sorry you can't handle your finances or insecurities"

We've contracted their services since moving into our new home. The lawn mowing has been consistent with no issues. We've scheduled additional work to repair stones around exterior, thus we will update review once the stone work is complete. Price is reasonable for service provided.

I needed someone to mow the lawn of one of my properties I was selling on short notice. I called black land landscapes and he was able to come out on short notice and get the job done for me. I highly recommend them for any of your landscaping needs!

Jonathan absolutely went above and beyond with our yard! Our backyard had been unfortunately very neglected the last couple years and Jonathan made it his mission to transform our backyard into an oasis. He is very knowledgeable, informative and helpful with the whole entire project process and we couldn’t be more happier! We now have a beautiful backyard and I will definitely be using Greenworks for all future projects!
