    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 .

    Response from Company:

    You were given several management strategies and educated on the use of round up. We chose the most economical strategie involving you applying round up after every mowing event. We came in under budget and did everything we discussed.

    Beware of this company, the work was average but the pricing was ridiculous and not communicated before doing the job, they just show up and send you a bill.

    Response from Company:

    You said do the job. You didn't ask for an estimate.

    IPM Landscaping was hired last summer (2021) for bi-weekly lawn mowing. We had spoken on the phone and through email about possible future tree/shrub trimming. Through all conversations we specified our beloved 50 year old, 16 ft, heavily blooming Rhododendrons were not to be trimmed or pruned. We specified â do not to touch them without authorization. We did authorize two forsythia shrubs to be trimmed,  and again our email stated not to trim the Rhododendrons. In October IPM crew cut all the Rhododendrons down to 4 feet without getting any authorization. We had 3 arborists examine the shrubs and reported Improper heading and stub cuts were made. Improper rejuvenation pruning.  Damage to interior structure. Trimmed at the wrong time of year (a severe pruning in the fall removes buds the shrub has set for spring and renders the severed branches vulnerable to freezing temperatures.)  Shrubs will have to be reshaped in the spring to try to make corrections which will diminish their size further. The three certified arborists described the work as appalling, shocking, terrible and horrible. Owner James Petrillo was contacted but he was not willing to make amends or resolve this consumer complaint. Mr Petrillo canceled further ongoing yard service without providing a notice of cancellation.  Because of this incident, we can not recommend IPM Landscaping of Haddam CT.

    Response from Company:

    I can't believe your landsaper was smarter then the arborist. Send a picture of how perfect they are now. I drove by and they are exactly as I said they would be. Crazy how experience still is better then titles. They should resign as arborist. We had full communication and were watched by a man that lives in the house that calls himself an arborist . Permition and supervision. Literally watched every cut. Your a scam who didn't pay for work a man living in your home wasn't able to do. I paid my men for the terrific work they did and you live forever in the IPM stories. Every time we drive by we look at the glorious work we did. Perfect.

    Fast response to my initial email. He called within the hour and met with me the next day. Once I hired him, he had someone out the same day to mow. Great job, great service, would definitely recommend
