"Had an initial consultation with their customer service consultant about a month before project was started.  The consultant was very easy to talk to and I felt like he wanted to understand what we wanted to accomplish.  He also seemed to have a lot of knowledge about drainage issues, so we felt like we were in good hands.  The plan was drawn out and we agreed on the work to be done.  The work team came in on the appointed week and got the job done in good time.  There was a minor misunderstanding of the location for the collector grate based on a nuance in the plan sketch drawn up by the consultant.  After we pointed it out, the crew re-worked the trenches and got the collector grate where the sketch had it placed.  They did an excellent job and we are happy with the work they did.  We will look them up again next time we need landscaping work done.
{Update 3/8/13}
 While we were very happy with the work done at the time of project completion, our evaluation changed after the first rainstorm we had.  The pop up emitter was about a half inch higher than the grate collector by the sidewalk, so all the rain from the gutters was flowing out of the grate right by the house and the pop up emitter in the middle of the yard wasn't emitting anything.  The sales rep was very responsive, came out,  and agreed with the problem.  He said we could submit a warranty request through the website.  In all fairness, I did not contact them.  If I did, I still could not give an excellent review because we paid good money for a solution that did not meet best practices the first time.  The installation instructions for the pop up emitter said a 1 percent grade must be accounted for.  If they had just shot the pipe towards a valley in the yard, the requisite 5 inch drop could be achieved with the linear feet of pipe I paid for.   I was also told by the sales rep that to cut the curb and run the drainage to the street would cost  $500 for a permit from the city.  Found out that was not the case from talking to the city.  With a little more technical training of their staff, I feel the value they provide could be much better than it turned out for us."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Always begin by removing large debris, leaves, and branches from your lawn to make room for the rest of your lawn maintenance checklist. Move on to mowing, weeding, and edging in the spaces between your lawn and garden. Lastly, clean off all hardscapes, porches, and patios for a fresh and tidy appearance.

To prepare your lawn for core aeration, water it the day before you aerate. (Alternatively, you can wait until it rains and aerate the following day.) Aerating after watering or a rainy day will make the process easier since you can penetrate moist soil better than dry soil. You should also flag your sprinklers so that you don’t accidentally hit them while aerating. If you have a lot of thatch buildup in your yard, you might need to dethatch your lawn before aerating as well.

Lazy composting involves putting leaves, grass clippings, and plant trimmings in a corner of your yard and letting nature take its course. There is no turning, watering, or balancing green and brown materials. It’s a low-effort, long-term approach that can take up to one or two years to create finished compost. It is perfect for gardeners who don’t mind waiting and want a no-fuss way to repurpose organic waste.

In general, expect to mulch your leaves about once or twice every fall. You want there to be a decent amount of leaves on the ground, but not too much where it’s difficult for the mower to cut through.

The time it takes for leaves to decompose can range from six months to three years. Key factors influencing the decomposition rate include water, sunlight, and heat, so local weather conditions play a significant role. Decomposition will take longer for thick, matted layers of leaves. To speed up the process, you can mulch the leaves, as smaller pieces break down faster. Spreading large piles into thinner layers to increase exposure to sunlight and water also helps accelerate decomposition.
