I live in an over 55 community and the office manager hired this company to do our lawns. They have done the worst job of mowing lawns that I have ever seen. I sat in my home and heard the mower come through the side yard once ... didn't hear another motor until I heard a blower. The worst job of mowing that I've ever seen. And my house is in front of the clubhouse .. you'd think they'd want to be sure they did the best job possible on my lawn. Just awful. Would not ever recommend them ad will make sure I let the office know. Hopefully they're not on a multi-year contract.

High Tech did a great job on our current landscaping. We used them to edge, re-grade, seed some spots and mulch our current beds. They were on time, prompt and thorough. The crew is efficient, clean and friendly. Will definitely use them again!

Contacted this company to address my landscape lighting issue. Have an existing system and wanted them to either repair it if possible, or, recommend an upgraded system that they could install.

Not only did he NOT survey the property, he hopped in his truck 2 mins after our conversation, left, and never returned. I reached out to him via text (which is how he contacted me to tell me he would be late) and asked if he's still going to provide a quote

Top-notch experience from the initial estimate phase through the final walk through! We contracted High Tech to completely revamp the entire front of our house and the results far exceeded our expectations (demo of existing walkway, all new plantings, new TechoBloc walkway, drainage, replacement of mulch with stone). They worked with us on the initial design concept, through slight changes (when needed), and went above and beyond to ensure the project was done based on our requests and to a high standard. The project manager, John, was extremely knowledgeable, thorough, timely, and communicative
