The work that I requested to have done was of ok quality. The owner said that I could walk with his team to set expectations for the work that I wanted complete, and his team delivered on what I asked for but I would recommend keeping an eye on the quality. The team failed to property prune some of my perennials (one of my butterfly bushes was chopped down to the stump and my cone flower and peony new growth was pulled up) and they significantly thinned out a red raspberry patch that we have, pulling out almost all of the plants that took many years to cultivate. For the cost of the work I was expecting a strong understanding of the pruning requirements for plants. Also, I suggest you provide clear direction regarding edging preferences for landscaping beds - I requested edging and while they delivered on my request I feel the depth is a little extreme for the scale of my beds.
Worst experience hiring any type of contractor ever in my 23 years at my home. Arrogant blowhard that couldn't get get the trees planted straight. Charged 10K on 11 trees that I later priced at $2500. Took 3 months to get the work done and when spring came we found out that one of the trees wasn't even the right tree. Delay after delay until I called Oakland nursery and found a tree at less than $150. Dans response was a series of lies and screaming at me in my front yard that "They have those tree's because I ordered them!" Well I doubted he ordered 50+ trees for my project and yes he was lying again. Don't let this guy near your yard. He's filled with excuses and blame for anyone but himself.
Would not recommend them to my worst enemy.... They tried to trick us by not 100% completing their original estimate (stump grinding 15 old bushes). They completed around 11 stumps for around $1.5k (not all 15) and said they'd do a second phase of installing all new landscaping for about 30% of and acre for $15k. Thank god we didn't do phase two with them. The worst part about this experience was they busted our electric line from the garage to the house. They claimed 0 responsibility and we had to pay $1496 to an electrician to fix the problem. As soon as their stump grinder busts the electric line, we were told by them that they'd send two electricians out the next day... We waited 30 days because they never came and finally had it fixed ourselves.
I have had Bello Giardino do work at my office Arlington Optical for the past 3 years. Flowers, Lawn. Snow Removal. They have done a wonderful job, and I highly recommend them. Tim
