Gary’s Finer Landscapes Inc

Gary is beyond disrespectful amd a liar!!! If you don’t own commercial property they want nothing to do with you. Beware!!!

I called them two weeks ago for a quote. They promised to come by and write a proposal. I’ve called several times, and they promised to send something, but I still haven’t received a quote.

Called Gary’s Landscaping to get a quote on some work needed in my home I recently purchased, left a message with my name, number and address. Got a call back two days later from Pete. I missed the call. Called Pete back the following morning and he seem to not want to help me. I told him who I was and guessed my address incorrectly and then stated it’s out of the service area. Then I corrected him and told him my correct address and he paused, then said «we don’t service your area». Mind you, my home is literally 5 minutes from their office. So how am I out of the service area? I feel like I didn’t get any respect due to my home not being in the best of neighborhoods. But I guess you can expect a lot of this from Landscaping companies because they are IN SEASON. So they don’t need your business as much. Continue to treat potential clients like you do and you won’t have a business for clients to call.

We had Gary’s Finer Landscapes re-​sod our small-​to-​medium size city yard as well as plant some new trees, create a grill pad with blue stone, and add mulch. Everything turned out perfect.
That would have been worth the 5 stars, but their service was exceptional. We contacted them under a time crunch in early April as we wanted to list our place by mid-​April. Pete from Gary’s met with us right away, came up with some ideas, and was confident they could meet our timeframe (which was less than a week from our meeting). The biggest concern was if the sod would be ready from their supplier. A few days before installation, Pete was able to text us a picture of what the sod looked like from their supplier. Needless to say, it was fine and we moved along with our schedule. Our yard was small enough where they easily finished in 1 day. The crew was fantastic and cleaned everything up when they were done. There were no surprises with the bill either.
All around, we’re very satisfied and would recommend them for your landscaping needs.

Have been using Gary’s for normal set up and clean up and mowing for years.
Gary recently redesigned and replanted our back yard garden. For the city, we have a relatively large flower garden and over the years it had become overrun by weeds and out-​of-​control flowering plants. Gary cleaned out and then completely redesigned the garden. He selected plant groupings that look great together and are appropriate for the amount of sun and position in the garden. He also put in a small patio area in the garden, which looks great and allows for a cozy seating area from which to enjoy the garden. Gary and his crew were fabulous. The work was meticulous, as was the clean-​up. They were very professional and worked hard to put everything in within the one long day, after having done some earlier prep work. We are extremely pleased with the results. The garden is absolutely beautiful, and we can’t stop admiring it. Thank you, Gary!

These guys are the best. Been working with them for a few years. Ed Joyce, who coordinates many of their jobs, worked with us a few years ago to landscape the parkway in front of our house on a lean budget. It looks great! We also rely on Gary’s to do our fall and spring cleanups. The crews and very efficient and pleasant; overall they do a very nice job at reasonable rates.

We replaced the patio they installed; we were really dissatisfied.

Worked with Gary for the first time this fall to revive my front yard. He listened and offered great suggestions during the consultation and followed up with an estimate as promised. After discussion with my husband, we altered our original plan and Gary quickly gave us a revised estimate. Gary scheduled the work to fit my schedule. He, and his crew, completed the job efficiently and beautifully. They worked with heavy equipment to get rid of my root problem, they added compost to the soil and leveled the area, finishing with mulch on top. It looks so much better than before. We went from the ugliest front yard on the block to something that looks cleaned up and tidy. I love it. In spring we plan to work with Gary again. This time we want to add walk-​ways and some plantings and a bench. He sketched out some ideas for us and I look forward to working with him again. The cost seemed very reasonable for the amount of work that was done.

I have used Gary’s finer landscaping several times over the years, always with good results. This summer they did a superb job of planting sod where I had to have electricians dig a trench to bury a cable. They prepared the ground just right, digging out all the yucky clay that was now on top, laying down top soil, and then placing some very beautiful, healthy sod. Now, you can’t even tell the sod from the undisturbed lawn. It was not cheap, but worth every every penny!

We have used Gary’s Finer Landscapes two times over the last few years for landscaping in our front and back yards. After meeting and talking with Gary about what we were interested in accomplishing, (privacy hedges and/​or shrubs), when we next met he had a drawing with what we asked for and with some of his recommendations (a berm, so the hemlocks would not be sitting in water). When one out of the five hemlocks didn’t survive the winter, he promptly replaced it, as he said he would. His crew was as good as it gets. Finished the backyard job at least an hour ahead of his estimated time and left everything looking great. I think most landscaping is expensive, so I can’t comment on his fees versus anyone else’s. We will be calling Gary in a few days to do some more plantings.
