What Our Clients Say
You know the saying, you’re only as good as your last project. Here is what our recent clients have to say about their experience with us.
We just purchased a new home next to downtown Bethesda and wanted to completely renovate our yard. There was an old patio that we hated and a failing retaining wall. Not to mention that we had a very soggy area right next to the corner of our backyard where the inspector said there might be water damage. Sam and Tim came out and not only did we have a good time, but they showed me the solutions to everything and help me completely redesigned my backyard. They actually solved the drainage problem too! We now have a new paver patio. We have a new stone retaining wall and our grass looks better than ever. I highly recommend and they now have a new fan!

I was having this work done while living overseas. Despite the challenges this presented, the entire team was extremely helpful in every facet of this project. I was expecting a headache or two throughout this process but I was put at ease from the first call. Their customer service and quality of work are top notch. I must have had 3 different changes to the plants I wanted. Each of which was met with simply a “no problem”. The finished product is exactly as we discussed and I really couldn’t be happier with the turnout. I’m not normally one for writing reviews but when someone knocks it out of the park…. a little recognition is the least I can do. Thank you everyone …….the oscars “get the hell off the stage” music is rolling so it’s time to go

I never write reviews but felt compelled to write one this time. I hired Sam and his guys at Blue Collar Scholars 2 years ago and again this year to do a winter clean up which required serious cutting of branches from many of my trees, in addition to heavy pruning of all my plants. It’s now spring once again and all the work they did looks amazing since the trees were cut back so drastically like I requested and are growing back in nicely. I told him to “cut them SO FAR back, make then look miniaturized” and he did. I asked this of 3 other companies over the years and no one took the time to trim them to the extent that his crew did. I get compliments all the time on my yard now and recommended them to my neighbors on each side of me. They took away all the scraps, down to the last leaf and worked super fast so everything was perfect when I got home each time it was done.
