We used Drew Bell to finish clearing our lot in Stoney Creek. He was responsive, reasonably priced, and saved us after a big mess was left by the last guy. Many of our neighbors even raved about him after he finished! Drew Bell is local to Nelson, and he offers lawn care, small excavating jobs, tree work, firewood delivery, and much more. Give him a call; you won’t be disappointed! 434-363-2074. Submitted by Laura Young. October 2022

We would like to highly recommend Cipriano and Sergio of Villa Irrigation and Pumps LLC. Our pond was leaking. After various attempts to get quotes we chanced on Cipriano. His company not only took on the work but went above and beyond in renovating and expanding our pond. They brought with them a great work ethic, and engagement with the task and contributed excellent professional, technical, and design ideas as well. These guys are skilled, hard-working, and reliable and we are pleased to recommend them without hesitation. Call 434-305-2890; villairrigationandpumpsllc@gmail.com.

Rex Nicholson (Tree and Landscaping) and his team did a beautiful job shaping my trees and shrubs, as well as felling two dead trees on my two-acre property this summer and early fall. Rex has an eye for symmetry and continuity that just brought my yard to life. What impressed me was that he also recommended to me what he would NOT do to certain plants so that they would thrive. I saw Rex’s dedication to the work and his honesty about the projects, and therefore I would recommend him to others. Call him at 540-245-0401. Submitted by Kathy Watkins-Richardson. October 2021

We recently had a consultation with Bill Mauzy, owner of Three Ridges Architecture (540-255-6208). We were very impressed with his professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail. He provided us with lots of ideas, suggestions, and a mini education on plants- what’s local to the area, what is considered to be invasive, what works best in specific areas, etc. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for help with landscaping design projects. He has lots of experience with landscape design from the start to the completion or anywhere throughout the project. Submitted by Karen Reagan. September 2021

I strongly recommend Bartlett Tree Experts. We had two stumps ground down and were initially not quite satisfied that they had ground down far enough. When I called our point of contact, Dylan Kerl, 540-471-0528, and he said he would send someone out to make it right. It was made right and I appreciated that the worker who came out to do the job cleaned up the work area before he left both times. Submitted by W. Russell. June 2021

Martin, Tripp, Phil, and the whole team at Charlottesville Tree Service (434-939-2025) are true professionals. We had a complex job that involved taking down eight trees and asked for minimal disturbance to the surrounding trees and no nicking of the nearby house. This called for some delicate work! Every piece of tree was roped and gently placed on the ground, with amazing feats of engineering. They did an excellent job and I give them my highest recommendation. Submitted by Brenda Kessler.

We heartily recommend Windridge Landscaping and Hardscaping (434-361-1588). After the extensive wood landscape timbers on our back deck rotted very prematurely, we went searching for a company that could replace them with a high-quality product that would last forever. Through Wintergreen Bulletin Board, we found an enthusiastic recommendation for Windridge. Jeff Howe, the owner, came to our house multiple times and designed a very effective replacement for the landscape timbers. His crew then worked tirelessly and continuously. (Never was it said, "we have another project to catch up on, so we’ll see you in a week or so.") They completed the job perfectly. The crew's work was monitored closely to make sure it met Windridge’s high standards. The front office people at Windridge were also very efficient and responsive. It has been several months now and everything they did continues to hold up perfectly. You’re welcome to come and see the work they did for us. Submitted by David Schwiesow. August 2021
Jeff Howe's Windridge Landscaping & Hardscaping Company in Afton (434-361-1588) did a fabulous job removing our lower failing deck. Using all the huge boulders (some 5,000 pounds) in our backyard and other stone materials, they created a raised rock patio with cascading flower, herb, and rock gardens to blend naturally into the forest. Fabulous company and workers. Submitted by Chris Casey. October 2020

Orlin Martinez and his crew did an awesome job with our trees! They got the job done quickly and safely. Orlin and crew arrived on time and performed a very professional job at a reasonable price. In addition to removing seven substantial trees, they improved the grading around the foundation of our home. I recommend them without reservation. Orlin can be reached at 571-247-8216.

I highly recommend Matt Miner (Taylor Tree Service- 434-531-4734) for tree removal. He took down two large red oaks, one of which was located between two homes. Matt and his crew were professional and friendly and the clean-up exceeded my expectations. Submitted by Stuart Meyerson. November 2022
We just had a very tall ash tree taken down by Matt Miner and his crew. The tree was infested with the emerald ash borer and was positioned to fall on our roof during one of the spring storms. It was over 100 feet tall and probably 3 feet across at the base. Matt got the job done in spite of high winds. The job came in on estimate and the site was cleared completely. An exceptionally professional job. Taylor Tree Service. Text him at 434-531-4734. Submitted by Doreen and Mark Stapleton. April 2020
We had some trees that were threatening the structure so I called Matt Miner 434-531-4734. We are very pleased with his work. Clearly a professional as not a twig landed on the home. If you need tree work don’t waste your time calling anyone else. Rates are reasonable and the site was clean after. Submitted by Dave and Jessica Brown, November 2018

We had a good experience with Big O Tree Service https://www.bigotree.com/ (540-337-4588) in 2019. We had a huge tree near our house in Stoney Creek. We got several bids and they won. Big O has the heavy equipment (bucket truck) to handle the monster trees and their three-man crew were very professional with an obvious safety-first approach. They also have an arborist on staff that works on emerald elm borer issues. Charles Batchelor.
