Excellent Service and follow-up. more

Worst service ever- not the only one. 10/8/2010

(My unfortunate experience with Blade Runners is because they are hired by Reston Association to do grounds clean up for our neighborhood cluster- they are not supposed to be chopping down residents plants and killing them.) On several three separate occasions, Blade Runner's workers took the liberty of needlessly cutting and overzealously hacking at plants and flowers from my personal property in the front of my home near my front steps. The latest incident was last Sat. and they severed a morning glory vine of mine in two and cut off all the leaves and flowers off the lower half of the plant. It used to be flowering beautifully around lamppost about 4-5 feet off the ground. (Note: It was not a mistake since I had clear stone edging around my plants and it happened at eye level, Not on the ground!) The workers were still in front my townhouse when I saw this had happened and when I confronted them, one of their workers confirmed and pointed out the member of their crew that done this specifically. I followed up with a complaint to Blade Runner's president Eric Storck, who refused to accept all accountability for this needless destruction. Despite the fact I saw this happen in person and that his own workers even confirmed they had done this, he tried to say he thought it was a deer who must done it! Now, I know you dont know my place but the idea of a deer doing this is ridiculous to the point of being funny! Imagining this ""deer"" crossing our residential parking lot and hopping onto my sidewalk in front my front steps during broad daylight mid-Sat.- mind you, all while Blade Runners also just *happens* to also be there! (Yeah right BS!) This type of incident has happened repeatedly, each time directly after Blade Runners came by- they love to mow and hack up plants! Eric, the president, was full of excuses. First he tried to claim he ""lost cell reception"" and hung up on me in the middle of the complaint. Three days later he called back since I left a threatening message that I would contact the Better Business Bureau if he did not take action. Then he tried to claim it was an issue of confusion and listed a bunch of supposed rules about edging. Well, guess what? I have stone edging! No confusion, but rather, sabotage! When I emphasized it happened at eye level, he changed his excuse to it must have been a deer. Did he forget his workers already had admitted to doing this? Clearly unreasonable! If you want to avoid this kind of BS happening to you, do not hire them and if your Cluster uses them, please encourage your Board to use a better company. Ps If you are thinking about hiring them for snow services, they were also ill equipped and worthless. Last winter their landscaping truck ""plow"" couldnt handle the snow and our cluster wound up paying extra cash out of pocket to hire a real plow to plow our neighborhood out.

Blade Runners has done a great job with my shopping centers. They are always sensitive to the needs of my tenants and gone out of their way to accommodate their requests. They also took the time to review my specs and made some key changes. They recommended scaling back on some maintenance to lower profile areas in the rear, and focusing the attention to the front and some extra work to the trees. The result was a contract savings and a better looking property. more

Great Local Landscape Company 5/13/2010

Blade Runners snow removal was terrific this year. In Washington, D.C. we had the heaviest snow accumulations on record. With each storm, I was the first one in my office as compared to my office mates. They cleared our development faster than any others I could see on my way to work. During one particular storm they cleaned our roads 2 days before the town roads were passable. They also have a great email system that lets you know what they are doing and when. Our property manager said that Blade Runners was the best in their office. more

Blade Runners Landscape maintenance 11/14/2009

We spent a good deal of time making a grounds decision. We found Blade Runners prices in the low middle as compared to others. Eric Storck visited our board meeting and explained the many ways his businees was different and better. We recieved a real education on what was happening in his industry. Blade Runners turned out to be the best contractor we have ever had. Pros: Good work at a great price more
