I hired James to weed and mulch my small back patio space and also do some pruning. He was friendly and professional and accomplished the tasks to my satisfaction. I would hire him again. Thanks James!

What initially impressed me about James was that he listened to what I needed ( including my future plans) and where I wanted the current plantings to be planted. He installed a landscape border for me which I could never have done myself. He was on time and completed the job exactly as needed. James also cleaned up the area around the space he was working in. He was professional, down to earth and articulate. I look forward to having him help me manage my garden in the future.

Details: Residential • Extra small (less than 1,000 sq ft) • Yes, I will provide plants • I don't need a sprinkler or drip system installed • I'm flexible • Fertilizer application • Seeding or overseeding • Mowing

James came out last minute, in the rain, and did a fantastic job cutting my lawn. The excessive rain before he came out made it even more challenging but James’ expertise and work ethic made this job even more impressive. Highly recommended!

Details: Home • Every 2 weeks • 1,000 - 5,000 sq ft (0.02-0.11 acres) • Standard (up to 6 in) • Mulch • No, I don't need to be there
