    Snow and ice clearing of our front steps, sidewalk, driveway, parked cars and street pavement by the mailbox generally went well. A gentle reminder helped make the clearing more complete when the initial effort overlooked the vehicles and the mailbox.

    Their crews are pleasant, conscientious and do good work. We have them for our subdivision landscaping and snow removal, and I have also used them for additional personal work, such as dormant pruning and additional landscaping.

    We have had Architerra as our landscaping company for two years and are highly satisfied. We have had to replace plants, including shrubs, that were on their last legs or just not doing well. They suggested alternatives that have worked out great. Architerra knows its business. The employees go out of their way to help. Example: Tracey has saved us a lot of money by coming to our home and evaluating our irrigation system for no charge. The company that installed the system advised us to water sections for 15-20 minutes each. Our water bill sky rocketed. Then Tracey volunteered to help us for no charge. She told us that, based on the amount of water that each section receives in a minute, we could cut down the watering time to about two - three minutes per section. This has saved us a lot of money. And the plants are doing better. I should add that special projects (plant removal, new plantings) seem rather expensive. But the weekly maintenance is more reasonable. We highly recommend the company.
