“MELROSE - Follow Your Art Community Studios (FYACS) is excited to partner with Tony Colella Landscaping this spring to create a new outdoor venue for classes, performances and community gatherings behind The Big Yellow House”
I'm so incredibly happy to have reached out to Tony Colella for my project. From start to finish, I absolutely could not have had a better experience. Every single aspect of the job, from the initial phone call to the thorough followup, has been a dream. Very transparent and fair in costs as well, which goes to show you what kinda guy Tony is. Tony and his incredibly impressive employees are all so polite, respectful, caring, kind, communicative, capable, and the list goes on. They all basically became family throughout the duration of the project, and I don't say that lightly. To start, my backyard was a nightmare (see photos 13 & 14). And with the skill and creativity of Tony and his team, it's become a multifaceted space that my family can enjoy for as long as we live here. Complicated layout of permeable pavers, cobblestone galore, sod and sprinklers, coordination with Reliable Fence, posts for hanging speakers/sail shade/bistro lights, bluestone step stones/recycling & trash pavers, collaborative landscape design on our hill and all the planters, and so much more. In all, if you're looking for any level of project at all, Tony Colella is the man.
Company overuses leaf blowers for hours on end causing damage to gardens across the neighborhood. At some point, a property is clean. They are blowing air particles at this rate. One house. From 12-6. Nearly nonstop leaf blowing. Insanity. There’s clean, then there’s bare bones soil and land. Good lord. Must be over charging people like hell. This is near York terrace. Good god stop using the blowers at some point.
We moved to a new home recently and I had Tony over for a consult on several projects to spruce up our new yard. I had worked with he and his team before for smaller yard cleanup projects. This bigger project included reshaping several beds and munching, clearing invasive vines off some beautiful birch trees, sanding between patio pavers, laying down new river stone and securing the rocks in place, and a major weeding cleanup. From messaging Tony, to getting him over for a consult, to the work being done, he and his team are top notch. He’s a great communicator, gave me great advice about what plants to add in different levels of shade and sunlight, and his guys are super hard workers. Highly recommend if you’re looking for responsiveness, to be hands off, and to come home to a great looking yard. Thanks guys.
I have been a customer of Tony’s since he first started. I have always been more than satisfied with his work. His crew is also excellent. I came home this weekend to two large tree branches in my front yard. I texted Tony this morning to ask if he could take care of it and the branches were gone by 5:30 tonight. Very swift response & much appreciated
This company has been scaring my children by trespassing on my property clearly demarcated with a fence. Edit: they now have decided that blocking my driveway is ok. This is harassment at this point. I have contacted them about this and they have not responded. I hope this will not continue. I don't want to pester my neighbor again about the poor behavior of this company. If you like your neighbors, don't choose Tony Collella.
