The state registry lists Connecticut HIC licence HIC.0703701 as active, held by Cornelius Lawn and Garden.

A May 2025 customer said Jordan cleared poison ivy vines from about a 200' border of arborvitae trees in a day and trimmed overgrown holly hedges. A November 2024 customer said Jordan and his colleague removed extensive English Ivy. A May 2025 customer said Jordan had them approve all of the plants before ordering for new front and back yard landscaping. A November 2024 customer said Jordan made a video of the plants at the estimate and researched which to cut back. A May 2024 Thumbtack customer said Jordan gave a quote from photos for poison ivy removal, and when the customer texted about a few missed spots, came back at 7am the next day. An April 2026 Realtor hired Jordan for listing and inspection items including bird nest removal and gutter cleaning.
