These 'great' reviews are BS. Look at the dates and time of year; we live in Buffalo! Peter is a con artist who does shoddy work and doesn't stand behind anything except his Dad.

6/20/14
Hired Peter for a job last fall which went as well as could be expected considering the weather we experienced early in 2013. Booked him for work in November of 2013 for the following spring for the front of my home and some finishing work in the back yard that we ran out of time on. In early 2014 I contacted him to remind him of our commitment the previous season and asked to be put on the calendar as early as possible. He came out in April, canvassed the areas, bid the job and accepted a hefty deposit during that visit with a promise for May work and to replace all the plants that didn't survive the winter. May came and went and when I contacted him with a start date he indicated he was hesitant about doing the job because he was fenced out of the back yard (We had a new fence installed in the fall of 2013 and at no time did he request that the gate be left off pending the work he committed to do in the following spring). He then sent me a text indicating that he "doesn't feel comfortable moving forward with any of the work at this time. Too many red flags. We are swamped busy and we don't have the time to hand dig a patio base. I will drop your deposit off to you tomorrow." Even though I selected pavers for the back yard in April, he was aware of the gate being there, he bid the job and accepted the deposit for a May work time line. Needless to say, I was very disappointed. The refund did not arrive the next day as he indicated, I had to text about the status and a time line for plant replacement, he replied, "ASAP I'm sure" and wanted to know what the plants were that were dead, as though I am a horticulturalist.... He took 2 weeks to send me a check which was short 1000.00. Yes you read right, One Thousand Dollars! I had to threaten litigation if he did not correct the unpaid balance and replace the items. He stated "there is no guarantee on plant material..." After threatening litigation, the 1000.00 balance was dropped off at my home, the plants were placed, even though two obviously dead plants were missed (there were 8 total) and he did nothing with the items he transplanted that were already there when he did the work, and were healthy and thriving prior to being transplanted, and are now dead. A very poor businessman that lacks integrity.

7/10/14: After leaving a poor review in June 2014, Peter called my home, my place of business and sent emails to my private and business work begging me to withdraw the review. He even went so far as to BRIBE me by offering me the pavers he was going to install for free if I did so. When I didn't return any of his calls or emails, he then threatened to SHOW UP AT MY FRONT DOOR WITH HIS FATHER; Really?! He wanted to bring his Dad to "straighten this out"...Does this sound like a business with integrity and professionalism. I had to contact the BBB and file a formal complaint and indicate if these contacts didn't stop I planned on contacting the police on harassment charges. The man is unstable and should not be trusted, BUYER BEWARE!!!!

I contacted Peter for a quote and he cancelled. He rescheduled an apt and called again and asked if his father/co-owner could come and give the estimate because he lived closer. His father arrived and we discussed the project and he gave me a quote. I called to schedule one of the jobs and Peter said his father isn't allowed to give quotes and wouldn't honor his father's quote. How ridiculous and unprofessional!! Would never do business with this company they can't even get their quotes right!

Thank YOU Peter and team for exceeding my expectations. I love my new stone patio and surrounding landscape. I highly recommend PB's Greenthumb. Very dependable, extremely talented, prompt and courteous. Very fair and competitive pricing. Started on time and finished on time.

I sent Peter an email through his website and he was able to come out next day to take a look at the project. Peter told me he could take some pictures and create a design that he would email to me. Which he did. This was a much better option than just hearing about what he planned to do. Once we settled on a design he was in contact with me throughout the whole process of scheduling a date. They arrived exactly when Peter said they would. Most of the project was done in the first day. Then they came out THE NEXT DAY, on a Saturday no less, to complete the job because Peter told me he doesn't like to leave a site unfinished.

Moral of the story is that my landscaping looks fantastic. And they left the area spotless. Peter and his crew are top notch. I plan on recommending this company to friends and family without hesitation.



Thanks again Peter, awesome job!!!

Last year I hired a fly by night company to clean and mulch my beds, a mistake I vowed not to repeat when it came to a complete relandscape of my back yard. After much research including the BBB, I hired PB's Greenthumb. It was the absolute right decision. While all four of the designs I received were relatively close in price, PB's Greenthumb was the only one to include some strategically placed and decorative hardscape. That, as well as what I thought were plants which provided good "bang for the buck." Peter was responsive when I called or e mailed, his crew showed up as scheduled, worked hard and diligently and my yard is now a showplace. I recommend this company highly.

We recently sodded and re-landscaped our entire front yard after putting in a new porch. Our selection process included all mid-size landscape architects that we could find. PB's Greenthumb stood out as easy to work with, great digital designs, and reasonably priced. Peter and his skilled team came when they said they would, delivered everything as promised, and even followed up on sod that needed to be replaced. There were a couple of electrical and pvc related issues that his team was able to quickly resolve. PB's Greenthumb had the right equipment and skilled professionals to handle a job our size very quickly, leaving us the remainder of the summer to enjoy the beautiful landscaping. Definitely recommend!

I used PB greenthumbs twice now, last year for a patio and now this spring for landscaping. Very happy with the service, professionalism and results. Even my neighbors commented on how pleasant and friendly the crew was. Would definitely recommend this business.

You can trust the professionals at PB's Greenthumb for your stonework, landscaping, retaining walls, UNILOCK Patios, Tree planting, Landscape design and a trouble free job every time! They came highly recommended to me, and I pass that recommendation to anyone in WNY looking for the best in outdoor creativity and installation!

Just wanted to write and say how pleased I am with the work that was done by PB's Greenthumb Landscaping! I live in Amherst, NY and was looking online for landscape designers in Buffalo, NY. I contacted about 5 different companies but felt the most comfortable with PB's Greenthumb after the owner came out to my house and had so many great ideas. Highly recommend this company for Unilock Hardscapes.

I've tried the rest...They are the best! the work that PB's Greenthumb did for me was an answer to my prayers for a beautiful yard again. I have been unable to maintain my gardens for a few years now and talk about a jungle! The PB's Greenthumb crew did outstanding work with enthusiasm, something that you rarely see these days.

We loved our experience working with the owner from PB's Greenthumb Landscaping. He listened to our likes and dislikes and designed a beautiful landscape that suited our needs. Over the past five years, the yard and gardens have matured. The crew has always been available to help maintain and care for them. They "tweaked" spots to make them even prettier. We receive compliments all the time on our landscape design. We recommend PB's Greenthumb to everyone without reservation!

I was suprised by how nice my flagstone walkway and patio turned out! If you live in Buffalo, NY or WNY, you should take advantage of what PB's Greenthumb can do to your outdoors! I LOVE my property thanks to PB's Greenthumb, and highly recommend them.

We just had our annual spring cleanup performed and wow! What a difference hiring PB's Greenthumb made! The went the extra mile and locked us in as customers for life.

well, where do I start...



My landscape has not been updated since 1975 and was in need of a overhaul!

the PB's Greenthumb team brought order to my outdoor chaos, by planting beautiful trees and shrubs that actually fit the site. Highly recommended!

First off, I have to say that there is no shortage of landscapers out there. i am very pleased that we decided to go with PB's Greenthumb. The crew was professional and very fast and the owner was honest and very accommodating.



I would definitely recommend PB's Greenthumb to anyone that needs Landscape services.

"We were in search of a landscape contractor to build us the patio of our dreams. We contacted PB's Greenthumb among others. The owner came out and personally met with me and my husband and took the time to listen rather than sell to us. The patio design he proposed was the best one we received out of four different companies we contacted. The job turnaround was quick and we have the nicest raised patio in the neighborhood!"
