G & C Landscaping Provides Hands-On Craftsmanship

G & C Landscaping Design and Construction will tackle just about any project, no matter how sophisticated or elaborate.

CHATHAM, NJ – Just about everybody has had the experience of contacting a service professional, only to never come face to face with the actual owner of the company, who instead has dispatched one or several of his workers to a job without ever getting involved with the project himself.

Gary Carluccio does things a little differently.

The proprietor of G & C Landscaping Design and Construction in Chatham describes his philosophy as “hands-on” When a customer enlists the services of G & C, they’re most likely to receive the services of Carluccio himself, along with his skilled crew. Carluccio would prefer not to have it any other way.

“I am a hands-on perfectionist,” Carluccio said, “I’ll cut a brick four or five times just to get it right. The bigger a company gets, the harder they may become to deal with, and the more likely they’ll be to send someone else to do the job. And then, a lot of landscapers just want to get in, get the job done and get out, and they don’t care about the quality of the job they do.

“We’re a smaller company, but I’m on the job the majority of the time.”

Carluccio, a New Providence native, started his business right out of high school in 1975 with just a lawnmower and a lot of ambition.

“I didn’t go to college,” Carluccio said. “I went out and mowed lawns. I built the business up to 110 lawns with one other person, but we haven’t mowed lawns now in about 30 years. We just do landscaping/construction projects now.”

While you’ll have to look elsewhere to keep the grass mowed, G & C Landscaping Design and Construction will tackle just about any other project on the property, no matter how sophisticated or elaborate.

Landscaping, custom-built patios, walkways, driveways, home improvements, additions and much more are cornerstones of the projects Carluccio can handle.

“We stopped cutting lawns because we got so busy with other landscaping/constructions work,” Carluccio said. “We’ll also waterproof basements, take care of drainage and high-end patios, that’s what we specialize in.”
