Merry Christmas to all

May they find the hope and peace that the Babe in the manger brought, and is still giving today.

And May we all spread the 'Glad Tidings' to all we meet.

Snow Removal Time

We kept alot of this equipment busy the last few days.

Here is a Natural Flagstone Walkway/Patio with Natural Stone Steppers project that we completed today. (Well just about, we have to go back some warmer day and install joint sand) We also installed some Landscape Lighting to give the area a welcoming appeal after dark. The natural flagstone was a wonderful choice of material for this application, matching the feel of this Log House nestled in the mountain. We installed the pond you see in some of the pictures earlier this spring.

Paver Landscape Edging

Here is a way to edge your beds using a Paver Brick. Makes for a nice and crisp edge, plus offers protection of mulch washing out of the beds. James & Spencer did this project last week.

A Retaining Wall & Flag Stone Patio Just Completed

Had it not been for this track machine, we would have been sitting at home on unemployment. (because of the rainy, muddy weather)

Testimonial From: Lynn & Faye Strait

We ran into Weavers Landscape Company at the Chambersburg Builders Show and the results of that chance meeting were more than we could have imagined. Burnell Weaver came to our home, looked at the 40 year old porches, side walks, shrub, etc. and I just asked him what he could do to bring our home into the 21st century. He told me his ideas, showed me samples of paver styles, colors, etc., and after putting the estimate together, it was a 'Go' from there.
I cannot express in words the professionalism and team work we experienced with Burnell and employees Gene and Tyler. I have never seen young men work so hard, without a break other than a short lunch, to accomplish each daily goal they set to get the job done. It was unbelievable. I gave up hope that you could find any company with both owner and employees so dedicated to satisfying a customer. Their attitudes were above reproach. They were all so courteous, clean cut and polite. They always asked for our opinion, if in doubt, which was seldom. They cleaned everything up at the end of every day. It takes a lot to impress me, but I was impressed! Burnell, we are grateful to you every single day we walk in and out of our home. Your work is beautiful. You gave our home a face-lift I didn't think possible! We've had a lot of neighbors stop to see your work and they are amazed at the change. We recommend your company to anyone that even mentions outside work to do. We wish you a lifes' success with your business. There will be no one else do any landscaping for us, but you.

Best Wishes and continued success.
Gratefully,
Lynn & Faye Strait

Two fellows, Gene & Tyler, put a beautiful patio in for us. I would highly recommend Weaver's to anyone who is looking to have work done.

Planting Trees

Look how easy this fellow can move big trees. (hey, its what happens when you work with smart people)

36" Tree Auger. (Why? because people dug holes by hand back in the 1500's)

Retaining Wall in Progress

Ahhhhhh, my back hurts already

The outcome of a good job starts here

Beautiful, Beautiful sight. Nice Straight and level block.

Thanks Gene.

Tree and Shrub Moving

Want to move a shrub or tree? We can do it.

A new month, A new Job.

Wonder what the Hardscape Crew is going to do today?

We're moving in to this project in the Carlisle area, and installing a retaining wall around a pool. Its a fairly involving project so it'll keep us out of trouble for a few weeks. Check back for finished photos.

...Just thought you might want to know.

Testimonial From: Joel & Kim Flinchbaugh

We've been contracting with Weaver's Landscaping Company since fall 2007 and have been very pleased with all the services they've provided for us. We've worked with Burnell who designed our patio and retaining wall and James who designed various phases of our landscape. Both men are very knowledgeable, personable, and customer service oriented.

When Weaver's arrives at the site, they are on time, serious about their jobs, hard working, and also clean-cut. When we had landscaping done, James was always there to guide the workers and makes sure that everything was completed as planned. He then followed up with us to ensure that our expectations were met. If there was something we wanted changed, we'd easily contact James and he'd stop by as soon as possible to make our recommended adjustments.

We'd recommend Weaver's Landscaping Co. to anyone who is willing to pay a fair price for good quality products and services. We intend to hire them again in the future.

We were very satisfied with the work that Weaver's Landscape Co. did for us. Their workers were courteous and informative. Their price was very reasonable and the trees were more than we expected.

Testimonial From: Mr. & Mrs. D. Pfannenschmidt

We worked primarily with James Leid and Burnell Weaver. Both men demonstrated integrity, honesty, and listened to what we wanted. The outcome has been wonderful! Each bed looks great with a variety of color, size, and bloom time. The walkways, steps, patio, lighting, etc. are amazing. The overall experience was pleasant, friendly, and enjoyable. Great communication and value. We will gladly look for an opportunity to refer them!

We really appreciated the excellence and quality of workmanship of your men. They were very congenial and pleasant and the outcome of the project was just beautiful. We are very pleased and thrilled to have such a lovely yard. Our neighbor said we increased the value of our property. Yes, we would refer you to our friends. Thank you for a job well done.

I would say that Weaver's did the job right! Their employees are friendly, efficient, and are open and available to any changes or questions I have. I certainly recommend them to make any property more beautiful – they did mine!

Testimonial From: Harold & Esther Sensenig

This is the first time we had professional landscaping done so have nothing to compare with . Enjoyed working with James. Appreciated the benefit of seeing computer generated pictures to help with deciding what we want. The overall project outcome was satisfactory. The Thread Leaf Coreopsis is really pretty right now.

Testimonial From: Bill & Barb McDowell

The water feature you constructed for us turned out to be a big hit with everyone who sees it. We both enjoy it every day. You were able to do exactly what you said and in a very timely manner. The planting integration just added another dimension to the project and enhances the overall appearance. Thanks.

Testimonial From: Mr. & Mrs. Howard Tarner

The guys that did our stonework were very well-mannered and very knowledgeable about laying stone. We had quite a few nice comments on the work they did. We would most certainly refer your company to our family and friends. Thank you for a job well done!
Mr. & Mrs. Howard Tarner

Testimonial From: Mr. & Mrs. Hoffman

We requested estimates from many landscaping firms for our project. Weaver's was the first in and the most complete in describing what would be accomplished. The team that did the work was very professional and the work was done as scheduled. We are very happy with the results of our retaining wall. Our neighbors are constantly remarking how much better our yard looks now. We will gladly provide references as to the quality of Weaver's work.

Big Rock Steppers & Boulders

These pictures show Phase #1 of this bank landscape. The steppers are natural PA bluestone and weigh around 1,000 lbs each. The steppers were lifted in place by the 300 lb muscle-man that works for us. (yeah right! We used a mini-excavator with a chain sling) The next step will be installing plants & mulch. It may be next spring before that gets finished, but I will post some pictures when its done.
