Reviews

The Dream Greener crews have cleared the snow and ice off my driveway for three years now. They've always done a great job and are always timely. The emails they send to communicate the plan for snow removal for each storm are always appreciated and if they come in the middle of the night (as they often do) I've always wondered how they get the work done without waking me. Additionally, this company has taken care of my yard maintenance for four years. This includes mowing, edging, maintenance of the planting beds (including mulching) and leaf removal. Always a great job, always show up when they say they are going to and never a problem. I rarely write reviews, but this is a company worth recommending and I so so highly.

We recently contacted Dream Greener to do some grading and reseeding work. Additionally, we had drainage installed around our shed. This company was very responsive and pleasant each time I contacted them. Jon came out to take a look at the property and talk with me regarding our needs and then quickly sent us an estimate. The price was very similar to other companies we had give us an estimate. On the day of the work, Jon came out with the crew and walked through the plan. The team worked diligently the entire day and tidied everything up when they left. Jon followed up to make sure that I was satisfied with the work done. A follow up email was sent to provide us with watering instructions for our newly seeded areas. Now I am tending to my "baby grass." We are very happy with the work; the yard already looks so much better. We are already thinking about additional projects to have them help out with!

Our landscaping beds were a mess. Dream Greener came out to evaluate the situation, made some suggestions for alternative approaches, and broke down the proposal into sections so that we could do the pieces we could afford. While not the lowest, their prices were very competitive, but, more importantly, both the service and the outcome were superior. People actually stop at our house to tell how terrific our landscaping looks. I've never had THAT happen before.

I don't leave many reviews for businesses, but this one is worth the exception. Over the past four years I've had some fairly disappointing interactions with a number of landscaping companies. Missed appointments, poor communication, subpar work.. the list goes on.Dream Greener is absolutely amazing. Even compared to other excellent companies, I think they really manage to stand out. They follow up 100% of the time, when they say they will. If you have scheduled services performed (I do- mowing and basic grass upkeep), they show up on time, work quickly and the product is excellent. On at least one occasion, I didn't even realize they were there- Lawn Ninjas!Moreover, when they do additional work (for example, using a weed killer) they leave a note detailing the work performed and any additional care items. If you have scheduled work, they keep you in the loop as to when the work will be performed, and then send you reminders immediately before. The kicker in all of this is: They are priced very competitively. They're also very honest about their pricing- when quoting some work they even suggested that I might be better off working with another business for the work and provided a referral. I highly recommend!

We had several companies come out for estimates and design. We decided on Dream Greener because of their professionalism, customer service, great attitude, and pictures/reviews of the work completed.The children and I were out when the work was completed and my little girl was mesmerized. She said it was a princess yard now! My wife drove past the house a few times just to admire the work. In one day I've had 4 neighbors ask about the work, and multiple compliments on the pictures we posted. We are in the process of moving (we had scheduled the landscaping prior to finding a new house) and when we move I will be using them to landscape the new house. We couldn't be more pleased with the work and with the care they gave to our home.

I've used Dream Greener to handle my complex and expansive landscaping for two years running now. They do an amazing job with all the bushes, trees, shrubs and flower beds. They are always professional, cost-effective and I wouldn't go with anyone else!

We started using the Dream Greener crew not long after we moved into our home. Over the last ten months our lawn has made incredible improvements thanks to the wonderful job the crew does every week. It's absolutely one of the best lawns on the block now. They are extremely clean and efficient and take very good care of our property. Based on the great job they do, we are planning to use them for some other landscape work that we need done. I highly recommend them for any lawn care and maintenance jobs.

We built a home and the lawn they gave us was awful. Jon and I mapped out a plan and knew it would take 12-18 months. We are now 36 months in and out yard is spectacular! Thanks Jon!!

We had an incredible experience with the entire Dream Greener staff on our recent project in June of 2018. With a larger scale job, we relied on their expertise in both the design and creation of our entire front yard landscaping. We were very pleased with the outcome and the efficient work of the team. The Dream Greener staff did more in a morning than I could have possibly done in an entire summer. Thanks again for your top notch service.

Wow! We just had Dream Greener install a completely new landscape around our entire house last week. It is absolutely gorgeous! Our neighbors even ran over as soon as the job was finished to tell us how beautiful it is. Our job involved a lot of work too, since we had stones instead of mulch. Everything had to be pulled up and taken away. The crew got the entire job done in less than 2 full days, absolutely amazing work. I would highly recommend their services, we couldn't be more pleased and impressed!

Great company! Very reliable and they always call back quickly if I miss them in the office. Maria does a great job answering my questions and the crew always shows up with a smile when they mow my lawn. I've contracted Dream Greener for a year now and it was one of the best decisions I've made. They mow my lawn, mulch the flower beds, plant new flowers, and trim my shrubs. They always do a great job, I highly recommend them!

I've been a customer for 3 years and each year their team's responsible and efficient work amazes me! Jon always keeps in touch and makes sure that I am happy with the work. I had them install a landscape 2 years ago (and they touch it up) and I still get compliments from people about it! I highly recommend you try them out

John and his team at dream greener are amazing. I went through no less than 6 landscaping companies before I came Upon dream greener. I do not have an irrigation system but my lawn looks as good as the neighbours that have sprinklers. I would highly recommend dream greener to anyone who wants to have the best looking lawn and landscape in their neighbourhood.

Oh My Goodness!!! What an amazing job done on our property yesterday. I have to keep going outside to marvel at the difference!!! Thank you. Thank you. This company does what it says. I’ve had previous landscaping services and NO ONE did the beautiful job that they company has done—-and the icing on the cake is the fair price that they charge.

I am a little surprised about negative reviews. I had a very good experience with these guys. Fist of all, they are very professional. They are always on time and finish the job as promised. You can not pay them under the table. You have to pay your taxes. This is one of the reasons I like them. Below are my experiences with these guys.Last year, I went with a limited package. I haven't had any negative treatment because of my limited package selection. Once, I called Jon for a landscaping project. I got the estimate but I hired someone else. I thought it was expensive. I just wanted to save some.The irony is, I ended up hiring Dream Greener for the same job again because I wasn't happy with the fist one. Honestly, Dream greener did an amazing job. So yes, I paid twice for the same job. I learned the hard way. I also called Jon for another big landscaping project that I had in my mind. He told me that it will be too expensive and not worth it. He suggested me to leave as it is. The project was cleaning up the plants and some trees from far corner of my backyard and replacing the area with mulching&grass seeding. I was kind of surprised from his answer but it made sense at the end. Because I have a huge backyard and the extra little space I will have is not worth the money I will spend. This year, I went with full package. My grass is for the first time, green, thick and strong. Someone even told me that he is jealous of my grass.Recently, I realized that there was a little damage to my trench fence. I thought it was because of the edge mowing. I emailed Jon with photos attached. He called me and said everything they do is insured. If there is any damage they caused they are willing to pay or repair. The damage was small and I already fixed it by myself by the time he called me. So, these are my experiences with these guys. I will update my review if I'll have any negative experiences. But so far I haven't had any.

My yard looks great, it had been neglected for quite awhile. They might be more expensive than some, but there's a reason. I had multiple companies not even give me an estimate due to the busy season and only requesting a one-time service. Dream Greener was even able to complete the service requested a few weeks earlier than anticipated. I was also surprised that they cleaned up items that I didn't expect. Trust me, my yard is 1,000 times improved and not an eyesore!

John and his team did an amazing job with our landscaping. I knew from the website they did quality work, but the end result completely exceeded my expectations. Additionally, their office was very responsive and was able to answer all questions my wife and I had. I will most certainly be using Dream Greener on all future landscaping projects.

Jon and his crew were very timely and professional. The work they did is fantastic and looks beautiful. The crew cleaned up after the job was completed and everyone that has seen their work today only had great things to say. I signed up for the fall and spring maintenance and I am sure it will be great. Thanks Jon and Dream Greener team!

We are very satisfied with the job they did at our home and will recommend them to others. We have a large yard on a corner lot that needed a significant amount of landscaping. Jon was great to work with and gave us some excellent suggestions about the best way to tackle the job He helped us develop a plan to do the work in phases over a few months. The crew arrived on time and worked non-stop until it was all done. Thanks Dream Greener!
John Ricci
23:15 08 Aug 19
After getting a quote from Jon that I thought was too expensive, I went with first one then a second company. While both cut the grass, neither one followed through on the bed maintenance, pruning and weeding. Many unanswered calls, texts and emails later, I went back to Jon to see what he could do. Everything was done on time, with very professional crews. They even cleaned up any debris on our driveway and walkways after they finished. We couldn’t be happier. Anyone can make a promise, but not everyone will keep it. Save yourself some time and pain and use Dream Greener.

Hands down the best lawn service in the South Hills. Jon and his team are great to work with and the whole team is very responsive. Jon always has gone above and beyond for our family by listening to what we wanted done. Pricing for the service is very reasonable and the results are outstanding. I cannot say enough great things about this organization. I look forward to working with Jon and team in the future. Highly recommend anyone in need of lawn care and service!

From the office staff to the crews and the owner himself...this team is THE BEST. With Dream Greener, you never have to call another provider because they can take care of anything on your property. Their attention to detail on site is the best, but most importantly their communication from emails to follow up is great. Highly recommend!

Dream Greener : My front and side yard was a total mess. Over grown grass weeds dead plants. The Dream Greener team came out in just a few hours I have a beautiful yard and side yard. Had neighbors comment on it had good it looked. The price was great, quality and professionalism top notch. They also cut my lawn weekly. My new go to landscaper.

We used dream greener at our old house till I retired and we moved to a smaller home close by. For two years we went back and forth with three different landscapers trying to save a few dollars. At the end of the day, we saved nothing! Poor service, poor quality, poor timeliness.We are back with Jon at Dream Greener. Five stars are not sufficient. My wife and I would give them ten. High attention to detail. Their automated communication system let's you know when work will be performed and when it is completed. For a nervous wreck like me that is wonderful. The crew is friendly. And, can you believe it...they actually have a real person that works in a real office and answers your phone calls. If you are thinking of switch or are new the neighborhood, call Dream Greener. You simply cannot do any better.

Dream greener is a very professional company. This is especially rare for a landscape company these days. Most landscape companies you can barely get them to answer their phone. If your lucky enough to get a call back from a typical landscape company, it may be next to.impossible to get a written proposal from themNot only are they very professional and exstremly knowledgeable, they exceeded my expectations when it came to communication. It was fairly easy to get a hold of dream greener as well as scheduling a estimate and getting a proposal in a timely manner. Dream greener has exceeded my expectations. I will plan to use them in the future as well as recommend them to my friends and family.

We hired Dream Greener Lawn and Landscaping to fix a nightmare of a situation regarding a disappointing driveway project from another contractor over the summer. Jon and his company came to our rescue and fixed a very ugly situation. His crew was professional, efficient and went above and beyond the basic layout of the project to make it look spectacular. The other impressive part of their work was the quality and efficiency. They were done in less than 3 hours for project that I assumed would take all day.Completely Impressive! The crew was very friendly , professional, and just gave us a wonderful experience. We will be using this company again in the near future on another project because of their reliability, trust, and excellence. Thank you Dream Greener!
