I have never hired Vince at Landscape Strategies, so please know that these five stars might overlook what I would discover if I hired him. I can't speak to that.
However, I've seen his landscape work in multiple locations. It is beautiful and impeccable. If I had a space to do landscaping and I owned my yard, I would hire him. I've seen his workroom, his drawings, and the dedication he has to excellence. I've heard his struggle as he learned new technology to serve his customers better and noticed that his pitches are honest about time and cost. He know all the things about all the plants, and the and cons of using each type for different areas, reasons, and weather (I'm a brain-blowing way).
Over the last seven years, as a family friend, I've observed the character of this man. He is going to value you as a person--you will not just be a business venture. I've heard stories about times he had to be honest with customers about delays, financial things that weren't right, and other difficult conversations that he chose to engage in awkwardly. Not because he wanted to, nor was it good for his business, but because it was the right thing to do. I don't know his partner or his contractors so I can't vouch for them. But if you work with Vince Nigro at Landscape Strategies, you are hiring a man with integrity.
That can mean everything in the world of business.
