I placed an order for 5 CY of their organic garden soil over the phone. They were able to deliver it to my house the next day, which was great. I placed a tarp in my yard for the delivery, in case no one was home when they got there, and came home to a neat and tidy pile of soil. My husband was actually home, but napping, when they came and he said they were so quick and quiet that he didn't realize they had come and gone!
We're using the soil to fill raised garden beds, and I'm super happy with the quality and the service (plus much more reasonable pricing than Home Depot). Would definitely recommend!

My fiance was quoted around 400 and ended paying 1,400. For a grass cut and leaf pick up. We will never use them again. Hi David, no I do not have you confused. My name doesn't match because it was my fiance who called and got the quote. He has called as well and they are giving "reasons" as why it's so high. He has paid for it but I feel that this was not a fair charge. We usually use a different company but they were booked up. Again the quote was very misleading we would of never booked this if we knew price was going to triple.

While Dave was very responsive before cutting him a deposit check, all faith in Veron Company was lost after we locked into a contract with him. Dave told us we would get an architectural design for a large backyard project in a few short weeks, and this took him over 5 months. We began discussions with him in Spring hoping to break ground in the fall.
It is now September and we only just got our quote. I had to call every 2-3 weeks to ask for the next steps, and was generally ignored. When I finally told them I was not going to hire them for my project, suddenly the design was ready almost immediately. The quote took another 6 weeks and came back without any breakdown, which we had asked for and he had agreed to.
Then the real problems started. As it was a large residential project, we intended to stage the project and Dave said he would work with us to do this. He gave us an ASTRONOMICAL quote (almost 3x other contractors) citing that he needed to follow ICPI guidelines which state he had to use a geofabric. When I reviewed these guidelines, it states that it's optional and generally used for vehicular traffic, but he refused to quote without.
He initially refused to break down the cost, but he finally did after another 3 weeks. In reviewing this breakdown, he marked up a pre-made fireplace by 3x, and was charging us over retail for plantings, and charging us a fee on top of that for installation. The office staff were not helpful, but nice enough. Unless you're planning a half million dollar project, it seems that Dave Veron is not interested in working with you. All he does is brag about how much money he makes so he can buy expensive equipment- I should have seen this as a red flag to begin with.

We hired David to install an irrigation system along with installing a new lawn and outdoor design for shrubs, bushes and misc flowering trees. Like any homeowner we did get a second opinion for a 95,000.00 project " we have a lot of land and irrigation" Dave met us on exact time said he was very straight forward and yes the other estimate was close a little smaller but we are so happy we went with Dave it went absolutely flawless our yard looks beyond fantastic!
His knowledge is impeccable for design we most certainly will be using the Veron company for all of our landscaping needs in the future hands down! I also would love to point out David the outdoor children's swings and playground they use it daily! Hats off gentlemen job way above my expectations!

We have used the Veron company for tick and mosquito spraying and plan to also use them for soil delivery for our veggie raised beds and some help with lawn care. They have been very responsive, quick to get us our services, and helpful in educating us about aspects of the spraying and some underlying issues we needed resolved for our yard (Street water run off issues the city helped us fix based upon the Veron Company's feedback). Will for sure keep utilizing the Veron company, thank you!

Saw the owner tagged in a community post on Facebook. Sent him a personal message. Not only did he go out of his way to give me a call to discuss my gypsy moth problem on father's day weekend, but had an appointment scheduled Monday morning and an estimator out to my house the same day. The sprayer, Dave H, was personable, honest, took the time to talk me through the process and my whole yard ended up costing a fraction of what I had read it would cost and to his word, the problem was solved by the end of the day - first time ALL spring I can't hear those little critters in my trees.
Not to mention, they'll remind me when to spray next year. Such a great experience, have full intentions to look for opportunities to work with them again in the future. If you're looking to support a hard working, honest local businessman - David is the man you are looking for! Thank you!

The Veron Company has provided landscaping and snow removal services to my business for a few years and we are always very pleased with their work. Today their plow operator saved our building from a potential snowy disaster when they noticed a window was open during the blizzard - thank you for going above and beyond for your customers! Highly recommend The Veron Company!

I am happy to report an update on my experience with The Vernon Company. They listened to me! They reacted and are doing everything to make this customer happy! I appreciate when I'm heard, as all of us do. I appreciate when the time is taken to explain to me the ins and outs of a job/problem/solution. In life, mother nature can throw a kink at the best of companies. Thank you Veron Company for GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!

I have a house in Sterling and my elderly mom and aunt live there. I got a call that there was a leak after the last big snow storm going into the dining/living area on one side of the house. I called a neighbor and he gave me the name of someone to come shovel off the roof and I went a head with it because he was so quick to respond but it cost $650.00 and he (his crew of 2 guys) just threw all the snow on my beautiful new deck and into pathways that were around the house.
I had paid the guy for his work but was not comfortable with the snow now piled over 7 feet high! The stress on my deck was my concern now. I knew David Veron from a previous job a couple years ago where I had a very good experience and remembered he did snow removal in the winters. I called, told him my story and my concerns about the deck. He sent a couple of his guys over to take pictures and determine how much muscle and how long it would take to get rid of the snow.
He also showed me pictures of the way the deck was starting to pull from the house. If I waited for that snow to melt Im sure there would have been some serious structural damage to the deck. The next day he had 3 or 4 of his guys working non-stop clearing the deck and the walkways around the house, meanwhile, sending me updated photos throughout the ordeal.
They job was completely finished in 4 hours! Very quick, very professional. I know at the time everyone was getting top dollar to have this type of work done because its not something that can be put off, or saved up for to do at a later date. Its always an emergency situation and its never a good time to do it, or pay for it. I am truly grateful that David and his very professional crew that were at my house were available and I will use the Veron Company again without question.
I have told my friends and family about the great job they did for me. I know my sister has already filed the phone number away for future reference. Thank you to all the guys at the Veron Co., from David, to the office people, to the strong guys that had the muscle power that got the job done!

The Veron Company is the best landscape/lighting company I have ever worked with. The work they do is amazing, their service is amazing and their prices are fair. They really exceeded my expectation. They did my house lighting last year and it was perfect. They set up timers, different types of awesome LED lights and it really looked great. I know they work all over the place and the owner (David Veron) is usually the guy you'll meet. Good company.highly recommend.
