Home Services reviews in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

John Friend and his team are INCREDIBLE! After working with previous landscapers, we were connected with John who came out ready to take notes and walk through our property with us. He saw our vision and where we wanted to go, took in our ideas and developed a plan, layout, and a visual design that showed us how we could make our Pittsburgh retreat MAGICAL! John and his team have been our best contractors throughout this entire 2 year renovation of our backyard and adjacent property and we could not have asked for a better team. John has worked recently on our driveway grading project, seeded new grass areas, created our backyard patio and landscaping design, and so much more. We have a DREAM home thanks to John and the team at Sylvan Gardens!

We've been working with John for several years now improving the property at our condo building. He's done an excellent job designing our beds and his crew are clean and efficient. He responds promptly to our requests and keeps us well informed on their schedule and what to expect.
We're proud of the way our property looks now.

John and the team at Sylvan was great! I knew what I wanted, and John made the design and the plants happen, even if my request for native-only plants was difficult to source at times. The landscaping team was polite, neat, and did a fantastic job. When I had any issues, someone was at the house to rectify. I would highly recommend Sylvan!

We recently asked Sylvan Gardens to design and install a Pollinator Garden to replace a very scruffy lawn and a hillside full of weeds. The entire experience from beginning to end was so much more than we had expected. The design was done quickly and very professional. We had plenty of opportunities to fine tune it if needed. Which was rare. The crew that came in to do the actual design implementation were excellent. They removed existing foliage and prepared the soil in 2 days and then the next 5 days transformed our yard from ehhh to a lovely garden. When completed they left the yard immaculate. Highly recommend this company for any landscaping needs,

We had a wonderful experience working with Sylvan Gardens implementing a large project in our backyard. They worked with us to implement a design we hoped to achieve, modifying and iterating multiple times. They gave us great visuals for what it would look like and walked us through everything step by step. Everyone that we worked with from John who managed it all to the men who came each day were kind, friendly and responsive. They took out a retaining wall made of railroad ties and terraced out the space with large boulders. It is absolutely gorgeous and achieved all we had hoped for and more. They connected us with (and managed) people to install lighting and a railing. The planting was all wonderful and we are excited to see how it looks this spring when things are fully in bloom. All in all it was a great experience. We are recommending to all our friends.

Sylvan Gardens has created the landscape design and property maintenance in our large condo building in Oakland for the last three years. Prior to that John Friend/Sylvan did all of the outdoor work at our home in Shadyside. They are a most professional, talented, experienced, reliable and cooperative company. John stays in touch about his plans, sends color computer photos of his design plans, accepts changes, and our property looks beautiful all four seasons. They have a great crew and they work within our condo building budget. From many years of experience I can highly recommend Sylvan Gardens Landscape Contractors.

Cleaned up our back hillside and put in river rock as requested. He recommended 2 trees and they look terrific. I can't wait to see them bloom and grow! His crew left no mess behind. Couldn't be happier!

Paul responded to me quickly and came out for an assessment and to provide a quote within a week of calling. The quote given was reasonable pricing for the amount of work. Paul and his team were doing the work very shortly after.

Paul and his team were kind, respectful, fast, careful, and very hard working. Paul and his team definitely went above and beyond the initial ask (but in a good way). They regraded a pool area that needed leveled out, mulched a very large garden, weeded, trimmed the plants, hauled away stones and bricks that were an eyesore, edged the garden beds, mowed the lawn, and cleaned up a ton of leaves and yard waste. I am not the most physically able person so having a team of guys come help me out was a huge deal. I'll be calling them for all my future needs. I'll be recommending them to all my friends and family

Nice to work with! Came when supposed to, and paid attention to detail. Would highly recommend!!!

Great service!👍

Highly recommend

Paul Miller landscaping did a excellent job. Great crew .

Family business with the Miller name on it, and Paul and his son treat it that way. Good people they come when they say, they make extra efforts and take care of their customers.

The best landscape crew around. Great quality for a great price! Friendly salesman. The kid that came and did the job really knew what he was doing. I'd recommend them to anyone!

They came today and removed a bunch of trees from my yard that blew down from a big storm. Did an awesome job. Reasonably price and nice people. Am going to have them do more work for me. Don't look any further. This is the company you to do your work!!

These guys are fantastic! They respond super quickly (and have fb messenger, text, or call!), are honest, and fair with their pricing. They told me what was realistic for my budget and got the work done way faster than expected. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again or recommend them. All around nice people and hard workers.

Paul millers gave extremely good service he seen me out shoveling my parking spot and finished it for me at no cost I will for sure be using them in the summer time for my grass and landscaping needs 5 stars all day thank you guys for helping me when you absolutely didn't have to

Very pleased with the quality of the work and price.

Excellent service. He is consistently providing me with a quality lawn care service. Thank you for all you do!

I would recommend RPM to anyone needing lawn services. They do a great job and at reasonable rates. I am very pleased that we have them taking care of our lawn needs.👍

RPM has been taking care of my grass for 2 years. They are professional, their prices are fair, and they always keep our lawn looking great.
