A recent customer recovering from knee surgery said they called Better Blades Landscaping about their grass and the company came out immediately. The business's website lists Barkhamsted as its service area, offers spring and fall cleanups, mulch delivery, lawn mowing, aerating and seeding, lawn installation, paving and snow removal, and says it has been in business 18 years. Its Connecticut home improvement contractor registration, number HIC.0624593, is active on the state registry, held by Better Blades Landscaping LLC. A 2025 customer said the company plowed and also shoveled by hand to clear paths for driving and walking, after previous vendors had not fully cleared the driveway. A 2023 customer said Tom and his team did a fall cleanup in their yard. A 2026 customer said the company's leaf blower destroyed a number of tulips in their mulch beds, and that when they called to let the company know, they did not receive an apology.
“Their vehicle is registered to Better Blades Landscaping of Barkhamsted.”
Had to have knee surgery, and was reluctant to let anyone touch my grass...Setbacks left little options, so I called Better Blades. They came out immediately and did an absolutely amazing job. Very detailed and thorough, polite and professional.
You would think a landscaping company would have more respect for people's flowers. We had an abundance of tulips in our mulch beds and this company decided to take their leaf blower and destroy a number of them. I was very disappointed and frustrated to see this! I called the company to let them know and did not even receive an apology. I would not recommend them.
Really thankful for the team at Better Blades! They provide very thorough and high quality service all year round! Previous vendors didn’t fully clear my driveway. Better Blades plows AND shovels by hand to provide clear paths for driving and walking. Their summer service is also excellent!!
Excellent fall cleanup in my yard. Tom and his team akwYs do a fantastic job!!!
