Customer Reviews for Tim Acton Landscaping

We have hired Tim Acton Landscaping for three separate spaces. I fancy myself as a landscape designer (I am in the insurance business) and presented Tim with my designs. Each time, Tim made suggestions, recommendations and cautionary statements- very detailed, specific and sensible. As a result, I value his collaboration very much.
His flexibility is valued as well. We visited many garden centers on the South Shore and the Cape and with each visit, I made changes to the plants I tagged for him to pick up. He kept up with the many changes and the deliveries were on the button.
He will spend time on any question. He gave me a terrific explanation and demo about pruning an espaliered apple tree.
Probably the most important part of his service is the execution of plans by his crew. I consider them more craftsmen than landscape contractors. For a small retaining wall, two pallets were delivered when the total amount needed is equivalent to one pallet. The extra stone was to ensure that there was enough choice of appropriate stone for the wall. Another project was a brick mosaic inserted into an entrance path. I spent more than a day with two members from his crew to oversee the cutting and insertion of each piece. Nearly nine months later, I requested an adjustment of one piece- which was completed without question. Each member of his crew is exceptionally polite- not just to us as customers, but you hear them say "please, thank you and excuse me" to each other! It is a bonus that they are a delight to have around our home.
