Landscapers in Delaware County/Near Delaware state line?

Can someone recommend a landscape company, specifically for installation, not so much design, in Delaware County or near the Delaware state line?

We moved late last summer into a new home, and we need a lot of work to be done. I began calling in December, and everyone told me to wait and call back in the spring. Now it's spring and no one returns my calls! Help!! We need someone NOW! Or would we be better off going to a place like Ronny's, purchasing what we want, and using a group that they recommend?

We also need regular lawn maintenance. We went through THREE companies last year just to cut the yard! They either never answered their phone, never showed up, or showed up once, and never again.

your out of luck for this spring.....try classic gardens 610 388 1080?? They may have openings for this fall.

Also, try the garden center @ 926 and 100 in Chadds Ford ( Westfields i think)

Be wary of someone who can do it right away. All good landscapers get booked 6 9 months inadvance.

Ronny's is fine I bought about 40 evergreens there 10 years agao and rented a small backhoe to install them. Still have the photos of wife driving it!!

I think if you bring photos they will make reccomendations. Ronny's is probaly your best bet.

Keep in mind pro's will probably start at around 20k .

Get a Deere zero turn mower fron Foulk lawn and garden on Foulk rd. The payback is about 2-3 years. get a pair of soundproof headphones and enjoy the solitude as you cut the grass.

Feel free to contact me for advice etc via email

Before moving back to Florida, I had a lot of landscaping done at my PA house, mainly our courtyard and along the front of the house.
I used W. D. Wells & Associates...out of West Grove.
They're great!
(Below, you'll find a link to their site.)

The young man's name, who designed and completely re-did my courtyard is Mark Scheme. He was a pleasure to work with!
Here's a pic of the finished courtyard:

If you want to design it yourself, then I'd suggest Styers on Rt 1 in Concordville.
