"We looked around at a number of 'high-rated' landscape companies to help us redo our entire front landscape and more. Ours had been overgrown, with trees blocking the house and a walkway that sunk into the ground leaving a large first step to the porch. After we called a number of these companies, Scenic View sent Pat, one of their experienced sales and design people. First off, Pat was great. Comparing him to the other reps who came to talk to us is really not a fair comparison. Patient, helped with design ideas, concerned about the look and maintainability, deers, etc. Not only easy to work with, but eager to help you visualize the design and offers great 3D drawings by which we could review and modify our initial thoughts. Scenic View is a great one-stop-shop. Not only did we have them do the landscaping, which included removing 3 trees from our front yard, removing a whole bunch of bushes, leveling multiple beds that were built up with rocks and mulch, but also they redid our entire front porch. Although they had hoped to just remove the brick and relayer a new front, they came prepared for anything, and in the end, they removed the whole porch and rebuilt it, and helped us select beautiful veneer stone. We also had them do pavers from the street to the new front porch in an aesthetically appealing swerving design (laid out by Pat), and also extended to our driveway. They also put in a new walkway from our driveway to the back deck, giving guest a path to walk - especially when the grass was really wet. Finally, they put in low-voltage lights, with new lights throughout the front of the house and then pathway lights on the walkway to the driveway. To make sure there really was no mud, they laid sod down to all areas they had basically destroyed with the equipment and supplies that were trucked in. They also cleaned EVERYTHING! To say the transformation was large is an understatement. During the process, Scenic's owner, Frankie came and supervised part of the process too. He helped with new suggestions on the landscaping, made sure that adequate supplies were there (they needed more pavers), helped add new pathway lights, and in the end worked to ensure that everything was to our satisfaction. We ended up spending more than we originally thought we would, but we also finished off more than we had intended. It was a great investment. Our house picture at street level in Google earth showed a bunch of trees and what looked like a house hiding behind them. Now, the landscape, lights, and front are so good, the curb appeal is amazing. One last thing about Scenic's crews. We used two crews, one for the majority of the hardscapes, and clearing of old landscaping, and one for the back hardscape and all the landscape and sodding. Any company is only as good as its crews, and Scenic has winners. They were hardworking, dedicated, and when you speak to them, they will go out of their way to help you if you have a question or want something changed or fixed. They finished everything in 2 weeks. When I look back and ask myself "was this a good investment?", both my wife and I are extremely happy. Scenic even helped arrange and coordinate the new sprinkler system we installed to ensure it was done at the appropriate time, laid conduit under the pavers to allow them to run their lines, and Frank came back after all was done and the sod was laid to ensure that the heads would pop in the new grass. Comparing Pat, Frank, and all at a very professionally run Scenic View versus other contractors (even those who were recommended on this site) who didn't even provide quotes or drawings, and had less a full line of services, is really a no-brainer. Save yourself tons of aggravation and expense (Scenic is very reasonably priced), call Pat and Frank. Now I'll use them for my landscape maintenance too! Thanks, Scenic View!"

"Installation crew worked very hard to complete the installation in a single day. We walked the property and discussed everything that was not defined in the initial plan. The final plumbing and setup steps were done quickly and efficiently. The crew tested each zone and adjusted the sprinkler heads for max coverage."

"Anthony Gallo Landscape was wonderful from beginning to end. The crew came in and transformed my garden areas in a day with real professionalism. Anthony was easy to work with, gave me an on-the-spot estimate that was a solid $500 less than the last guy, and didn't sweat the small stuff. My only slight complaint is that his guys could have been more careful with some of the plantings, which were done in some haste. Even so, I highly recommend!!

I can't rave enough about Billy Vamvakidis and his crew.
Billy is a pleaure to deal with, and understood the vision for the new stairwell and patio that I described. He clearly explained things that I hadn't thought about (such as drainage concerns) and reviewed with me the simple pictures that I had drawn.,
He came back with a quote in a week (which was exactly how long he said it would take). We revised the quote only once, as I had been revising the drawing. We realized we had underestimated the square footage of the patio.
After all was said and done, the final cost was only about 4% higher than the original quote - because we needed additional retaining wall blocks, based on the issues detailed below.
As the actual work got under way, Billy made -- and made good on -- a number of and quot;Don't worry - I'll take care of that for youand quot; promises, Some of the snags and solutions we encountered are detailed below.
1) Yard was difficult to access.
The only access to the backyard was from a neighbor's driveway, which is about 4 feet below the grade of the yard. Billy removed our chain link fence, and backed a flatbed up to that wall, and very carefully drove the bobcat and digger across a steel plate bridge. I'm pretty sure other contractors would have looked at that access problem and walked out.
2) Rocks, Rocks, and more Rocks.Our house is in Cliffside Park, on top of the Palisades. You can't dig down more than a foot or two before you hit big rocks and/or the cliff head. Billy and his team unearthed some giant rocks (and kept them for us to decorate the planter boxes) as they were grading down the yard. Finally, toward the back of the yard, they hit a rock (or the cliff head) that would not budge. The top of that rock would have to become the lowest point we could grade to. Billy's crew then had to UNDO the grading that had already done to bring the rest of the yard back UP to that minium level. They didn't charge me extra for that work, although -- that meant there was less material to remove, so - that may have been a wash, cost wise.
3) Solving design issues as they come up.The original plans called for a much wider stairwell down to the ground floor entrance. When the old, narrow stairwell was removed, it became clear that there was no bricking on the exterior of the house below grade. Rather than try to re-brick the newly-exposed wall - or create some kind of stucco finish that wouldn't match, we re-though the return walls of the stairwell to create more of a and quot;flareand quot; -- so that the more and quot;openand quot; feel would remain, even as the return walls came closer to the door.Also, once the big, immovable rock re-set the grade of yard about a foot higher than planned, it became clear we would need to add a step up from the patio entrance (at the side of the house). Also, the new curved retaining wall suddenly seemed very short next to the raised patio. Billy added a course of wall block to raise the retaining wall (bringing it back to and quot;sittingand quot; height) and created a nice design element uniting the stairwell's return wall to a single step up to the patio.
4) Little Extras without nickel-and-diming.I did not haggle with Billy on the initial quote. and quot;I'll pay you what you want, but I don't want to be dinged for the little extras here and there.and quot; I think that understanding worked out quite well for us. The only thing he charged me for (beyond what was quoted) was extra wall block: because of the and quot;big rockand quot;, we needed to raise the entire length of the wall by another course to preserve the and quot;sitting heightand quot;, and we needed wall block for the riser for the new step that was needed. Also, as we finalized the grading, we realized that the curved wall really need to extend around about 12 feet further than planned. What's important to note is what I DIDN'T specifically pay for that Billy felt added to the overall quality and appeal of the job:
4a.) Two window wells - since the yard was graded higher than expected, we needed two window wells at the house. He didn't charge me for these.
4b.) Cinder-block cap to outside retaining wall on east side of property. When we raised the curved block retaining wall by another course, it's top was now higher than the outside retaining wall facing the neighbor. Billy added a and quot;capand quot; of blocks to this existing wall so that its height would match.
4c.) Bury a conduit for me: in the back of the yard about 40 feet from the house is an 8' x 8' quaint-looking painted cinder-block building we use as garden shed. I've always dreamed of having electricity out there. Since the yard was being all torn up, I asked Billy if he could run a conduit from the house to that shed, and he did - at no extra charge. He also drlled the difficult holes in both the house and the shed to complete the run.
4d.) Double-sided block for the end of the wall: The original plan called for the curved retaining wall to and quot;disappear into the ground' as the grade behind it sloped down to the patio level. When completed, this looked a bit odd -- there was about 8' -10' of wall cap that just seemed to be sitting on the ground - begging you to step over it - or worse - trip on it. It seemed clear that the wall needed to be the same height all the way around, and just and quot;endand quot;. The problem was that - for this last 8' - 10', we needed double-sided block - because you would be able to see the and quot;other sideand quot; of this higher wall from the lawn. Billy somehow managed to get his hands on a few matching double-sided blocks to complete this, without making me buy a whole pallet of them. (or maybe he cut some single-sided blocks and put them back to back?) I don't know. Don't care. It looks great.
4e.) Small and quot;porchand quot; patio and interesting wall return at the Garden shed. Hard to explain - but totally his idea. Looks great. Pictures coming soon.
4f.) Totally unrelated repair. On the other side of my house is a three-step stairwell down to another ground floor entrance. The return wall on that stairwell is falling apart. As we were closing the deal, he off-handedly mentioned - and quot;Oh we can fix that up for you.and quot; It wasn't mentioned in the quote/contract, and - he could have easily 'forgotten' about it. But he didn't.
All this work was done over the course of about four weeks. His crew consisted mainly of two guys who were here every day. Billy would come by every day in the morning and late in the afternoon. We talked about the yard - while actually standing it it - almost every day for 15- 30 minutes before I left for work.
I would recommend Unique Custom Landscaping for extensive hardscaping work to anyone without reservation.
