Plants: We guarantee plant material to be alive and healthy upon installation, and to be installed to the best practices of the industry. All plant materials have a one-year, one-time replacement guarantee. This guarantee is valid only if site owner provides proper maintenance. Over/under watering is the #1 cause of new plant/lawn failure, we do not guarantee transplants, plants killed or damaged by pests, disease, abnormal weather conditions, seasonal die back, or other conditions beyond our control. Some plants will suffer ‘transplant shock’ and may lose up to 2/3 of their foliage. This may take up to two years for them to recover. Annuals & bulbs, and ground covers are NOT warrantied. We cannot warranty against weed growth in mulch or topsoil beds, due to the germination of dormant seeds prevalent in the soil. Warranties are non-transferable. Conditions: A plant will have had to lose a minimum of 50% of its foliage before we will consider replacement. Replacement plant may differ from original based on availability, hardiness or designer discretion. Your claim will be handled once payment for the completed job has been made and your account is current. Our office needs to be notified of your specific problem. Once notified, we will inspect the plant material and determine if it is a warrantable item. We will make warranty replacements during the optimum planting seasons: spring and fall.
Please let us know ASAP! Our main focus is to make sure our services are done fully to your satisfaction and as quoted. If there is a concern please either call the office at your earliest convenience or drop us an email stating what’s up. We would rather know that there is a concern and have the opportunity to fix it than have you upset.

J and R Property Services has the ability to take on both small-scale and large-scale jobs. From removing a single plant to landscaping an entire industrial complex, from installing a light fixture to creating an entire addition on your house, we have the flexibility and specialized crews to accommodate!
Have you not been mowed in a while? There are a few variables that can account for this, but the most likely is damp weather. We try to avoid creating ruts and other damage in lawns when the ground is soft. We have to account for rain days and your lawn cut may be adjusted back a day or two. For example: a typical Tuesday lawn may have been rained out, so Tuesday lawns are now being cut on Wednesday which will bump Wednesday lawns to Thursday…and so on. On occasion we will have extra crews working long hours some weeks to help recover lost time due to weather. So rest assured that we do have you on the route and will be there as soon as we are able to catch up to mother nature.
Probably right around the corner! Our routes are engineered to take approximately 4 hours from time of dispatch to finish during a typical overnight snowfall. This 4 hour target time can occassionally be delayed by excessive snow accumulation as well as traffic during morning/afternoon commutes. During long-duration storms, it is very possible we have already serviced your driveway/parking lot atleast once before you woke up to check, and we will be back while the snow continues to fall. Snow can accumulate very quickly during some storms and at a quick glance it may appear that we have not been there just minutes after it was cleared. We have extra on-call staff as well as backup and support vehicles ready to go to help pick up the slack during these situations.
If you genuinely feel you have been missed or in case of emergency, the quickest way to receive a response is by email which is monitored by multiple managers, both in the office and in the field. We highly suggest you avoid calling our office, but if you must, please leave a very clear message with your name, number, address and concern. We will get back to you at our earliest available time, which will most likely be slower than if you email.
