Tim and his crew did an entire yard makeover for me - including building a retaining wall, new patio and walkway, hydroseeding, and all new granite steps and porch on the front and back. Tim was the absolute best - responsive, on site often to supervise, and his pricing was fair and clearly laid out. The most important thing to know about Tim (and every member of his crew) is that they were the utmost professional - dealing with neighbors respectfully and mindful of their needs as this was a longer project.

This was of particular import as one of my neighbors was unhappy about this project as my new wall reclaimed was along their property. In addition to this, Tim always went the extra mile - and is one of the most honest contractors I have ever worked with since I've lived on the Cape. I cannot recommend him highly enough!

Tim took the time to go over our patio project in detail, answering any and all questions and stopped by during construction to make sure everything ran smoothly. His 40 plus years of knowledge was appreciated and made a difference in how we finalized our patio. Tim was also very prompt in returning phone calls, emails or texts. His crew is outstanding, friendly, willing to answer questions while working and at the end of each day they made sure the work area was thoroughly cleaned up. We could not be more pleased with the completed project!

Two young polite men delivered planted mulched and professional planted an expensive tree in my yard. They were very careful due to how delicate the planting requirements required. I highly recommend Tim Action Landscaping to you for complete and quality service. Dr. Edward Tynan

You won't find a more professional and personal company to deal with! In my many years of working with them (over twenty years) they have never failed to address my concerns efficiently and effectively.

We cannot say enough good things about Tim and his crew! We received an appraisal for the job within a weeks time and all work was completed as expected and in a professional manner. After the work was done, we were concerned that the plantings and shrubs would suffer from the dry weather but Tim was kind enough to send his crew over to the house to water while we were off Cape (without even asking him to do so). You can definitely trust Tim to do your next landscaping job no matter how big or small the job is. Thanks Tim!

Excellent work. All the guys are great to work with. Tim has many good ideas and the yard always look excellent after clean ups and hedge trimming.

Tim Acton Landscaping does outstanding work. From design of Pavers, and total landscaping to Pruning and all else they deserve a 5 star rating. Tim is caring and honest. You get what you pay for. If there's any negative, it's only because they are so busy that they are not always available and that's because they are so good to be in high demand.

We have hired Tim Acton Landscaping for three separate spaces. I fancy myself as a landscape designer (I am in the insurance business) and presented Tim with my designs. Each time, Tim made suggestions, recommendations and cautionary statements- very detailed, specific and sensible. As a result, I value his collaboration very much. His flexibility is valued as well.

We visited many garden centers on the South Shore and the Cape and with each visit, I made changes to the plants I tagged for him to pick up. He kept up with the many changes and the deliveries were on the button. He will spend time on any question. He gave me a terrific explanation and demo about pruning an espaliered apple tree. Probably the most important part of his service is the execution of plans by his crew.

I consider them more craftsmen than landscape contractors. For a small retaining wall, two pallets were delivered when the total amount needed is equivalent to one pallet. The extra stone was to ensure that there was enough choice of appropriate stone for the wall. Another project was a brick mosaic inserted into an entrance path. I spent more than a day with two members from his crew to oversee the cutting and insertion of each piece.

Nearly nine months later, I requested an adjustment of one piece- which was completed without question. Each member of his crew is exceptionally polite- not just to us as customers, but you hear them say "please, thank you and excuse me" to each other! It is a bonus that they are a delight to have around our home.
