James Petrillo, owner of IPM Landscapes, is an experienced environmentalist who opened a company to fill a gap for property owners who enjoy eye appealing landscapes but struggle to find services that produce a product with low ecological impact. During his tenure with PGA TOUR Agronomy, James developed his IPM approach. In the golf industry, there are many challenges to maintain a championship quality product. His time with the PGA gave James great access to and hands-on experience with, creating and preserving low-cost, environmentally sensitive areas registered with the National Audubon Society. In order to maintain Audubon status, these areas must be low-maintenance, esthetically pleasing and provide natural food and shelter for native wildlife. IPM is an acronym for Integrated Pest Management, an approach to dealing with the various pests of crops, landscapes, and structures, which incorporates multiple concepts from the disciplines of systems science, and ecology.
"Never finished the job. We received a quote, approved it and heard nothing for over a month. He admitted he forgot. He said he was going to send four guys, to showed up late. They did not seem to know what was going on . My wife explained to them what she wanted, and to the owner a month before . Only part of the work asked was done. They kept on saying we will be back to finish. Still waiting . The owner and his crew basically called my wife a liar to me. Said she accepted the work and didn?t want to pay more. The quote was nearly $2,000 and we approved and were ok with that. The invoice came and was a little over $1,500 and my paid it right away. Now I know why it was lower , the job wasn?t finished . The kicker less than a week later weeds are growing back. The owner told me to use Round Up and that Round Up got a bad wrap and was basically harmless. I am a chemist and know better. It has left an extremely bad taste. I am having knee replacement surgery in a week ."

"He was difficult to work with and unresponsive to inquiries. After collecting a down payment from me, he made no progress on the project for months as verified by town hall, despite his claims that the project was in motion. I’ve been involved in court proceedings since May 2024 to get my money back. I won in small claims court and he still has yet to pay me as of July 2025."

We are a full service Excavation and Trucking Company with 30+ years of experience. Specializing in Complete Septic System Installation and Repair. New or Failing System we perform perk and have Design Engineers we work with your particular project. Demolition of any Building and removal of debris. We do not perform septic pump outs.
"Addendum to my last review: When the septic pump failed, we discovered how many corners were cut. Instead of a septic pump, a sump pump (for rainwater) was installed with the 1½ inch pipe joined to a 2 inch pipe to make it look like it was supposed to. There was no coupler on the pipe leading to the distribution box, necessitating cutting the pipe to get the sump pump out. No check valve. Do NOT use this guy."
