It seems reasonable to think a tune means tuning up the items in need, but it only means will let you know they need repair. Otherwise the service was fine.
Description of Work: Checked to make sure there was good coverage in the lawn and yard, but no repair to 2 heads was done.

I purchased the sprinkler and irrigation tune up special from Angie's List. Active Environmental called me the same day that I purchased the service to set up an appointment. Dan, from their irrigation section, came by to do the inspection. He was very prompt and professional. He told me that I was over watering my lawn, and showed me how to adjust my system. He also replaced a sprinkler head I had damaged a few weeks back for a small charge. Overall, I was very satisfied and happy with his service, advice, and professionalism. I will likely use Active Environmental for other lawn projects in the future.

Brian arrived at the scheduled time. He explained what he would do for the adjustments and inspection of my sprinkler system. In a short time he had checked everything and came back to the front door, to go over my system with me. I had two rotor heads that were broken and one pop up head that needed replaced. He gave me a cost and asked if I wanted the work done. When I told him, yes, he went right to work and quickly replaced the defective heads. Brian was very courteous and informative. He explained what was happening with the system with the broken heads and how it would improve coverage and save water. This is the second time I have had the pleasure of working with Active Environmental and the second time I was very pleased with everything. If anyone needs lawn, sprinkler or landscaping I recommend them very high.
Description of Work: I purchased the Irrigation tune up for $35. I was advised and I had the technician replace 3 heads for a total of $59.

Everything went well. They tried really hard to try to fix my issue with the sprinklers. The owner was very responsive to my needs and they were able to come out quickly after I had purchased the deal. Scheduling was easy also.

Based on how they serviced our sprinklers, we asked the company to provide us with a quote for our lawn maintenance, weed and pest control. The cost seemed fare; therefore, we are going to give them a try. They are professional, friendly and prompt and appear to get the job done.
Description of Work: The provider came out and did a sprinkler tune up. We needed further assistance, so the provider came out again and replaced various sprinklers and other parts. .

I had purchased a "Big Deal"--$35 for a full sprinkler tune-up. The fellow came out on time and was very efficient, knowledgeable, professional and honest. He checked all my sprinklers, got them all working and gave me very good advice on a control panel that I was having trouble with. I will absolutely use them when I need any work on my sprinklers in the future!

After purchasing the Sprinkler tune up special based on their ad on Angie's list (that they work in the Kissimmee area), Active Environmental informed me in a follow-up phone call that they did not work in my Kissimmee location. My understanding of "Kissimmee" is all of Kissimmee. I was very disappointed, because all the other specials had expired by the time I got that phone call. I did ask for and received a refund of my payment... but I would have preferred having my sprinkler working. P.S. I do live in a very nice community.

Response from Active Landscaping & Irrigation
This member was notified within one (1) day of purchase that her Kissimmee location is outside of our service area, per our clearly stated storefront advertisement. We do make every attempt to make exceptions and service members close to our border, but this member is located 1 hour and 15 minutes from our office.

They are great, Dan was courteous and professional, he saved me money by not changing out things that didn’t need to be replaced, he explained why they didn’t need to be changed, and explained the system. He took his time, was courteous and funny, he was awesome. He could have taken me for more money if he wasn’t so honest; because he was honest I paid less than I expected.

My system was neglected for many years, and I was delaying much needed service. They called same day, then came out and gave me an estimate- not pushy- only made me aware of my issues. Massive tree roots broke pipes & system clock was broken (over 10 years old)and entire zone not working bc of failed valves. ( which I already discovered). Their charges were fair and work performed promptly- much lower pricing than I have paid in the past for parts & labor previously. Would definitely recommend.

It was an Angie's List Big Deal that I purchased. It worked fine. He has been out here a second time. He did okay. The Big Deal price covered the cost of the service during the first visit. For the second visit, it was a couple of hundred dollars.

This kind of service is hard to find. Active will be taking care of my sprinkler system from today forward and I will be telling all of my friends to use them too!
Description of Work: I purchased a "Sprinkler tune up", knowing that I had a few issues but wanting to know what they all were before started addressing them. Active showed up on time and was very courteous. Took some extra time to make sure all was right, fixed what could be fixed within the Tune up and pointed out a few things that needed repair. I received a quote on the repairs and authorized. A couple of days later Active showed up again and began performing the work. An issue arose with the "Brain" during the repairs, a few attempts were made to fix it to no avail. The tech needed to work with the owner and the next day the owner called me directly to tell me that they would replace the "Brain" on them.

I manage the property at the Blaisdell residence. I purchased the $42 sprinkler tune up advertised on Angie's List. I sent a message via Angie's List that we could schedule the service ANY day at ANY time, outside of 9 to 5, Monday through Friday. The exact response was: " I understand you have a tough schedule and would be glad to try to work something out." I responded, no problem, come out ANY day at ANY time, outside of 9 to 5, Monday through Friday. I received a message from Active requesting that I still need to call to schedule the service. I called to schedule at regular intervals beginning at 9am eastern time until 5pm every day for nearly two weeks. There were MULTIPLE DOZENS of unanswered calls. Without exception, there is no answer at any number, the call goes to voice mail ever time. When I notified Angie's List that Active demands a phone conversation but lets every call go to voice mail, and that I have called Dozens and Dozens of times, I received the following messages from Victor Butler, the owner of Active Evironmental: "We are a small company and can not always answer all calls. " And "If it is the same out of state number over and over it is 9 times out of 10 a solicitation. " This is not a problem of missing one phone call. There were multiple DOZENS of phone calls over several days over not just one week. At this point, Mr. Butler provided a number that he actually answers, and insisted I call that. I called the new number, and requested Active show up ANY day at ANY time outside of 9 to 5, Monday through Friday, Mr. Butler responded by refusing to provide the service unless Mr. Blaisdell call him in person.
Description of Work: I purchased a sprinkler tune up from Active Environmental. I called to schedule dozens of times with no answer. After finally speaking to the owner Victor Butler, he refused to provide the service.

Response from Active Landscaping & Irrigation
This service was purchased late at night on 9/3 and the member requested service on 9/5. We could not reach the member via phone, so messaged via Angie's List and asked him to call to schedule. The member replied via Angie's List: "You are scheduled for 9/5 SHOW UP." That date was not possible. On 9/11 the member messaged via Angie's List that he would like a full refund and will be providing a bad review because his assistant had been calling dozens of times a day and we would not return the call. We responded we cannot always answer all calls, but always return any messages. We told him the only messages we had were 2 messages the day before, and the messages were after hours, but those calls were returned the next morning. The member responded with a very long email detailing how hard he works and how poorly we run our company. Member immediately followed message with a second message" Show up on the first weekday after 5, or the first weekend during the day to provide the services you advertise, or issue a refund, and cause me the added frustration of chronicling this ordeal in my lengthy Angie’s List review of your service. Regardless of the member's continual demanding and threatennig tone, we chose to ignore the intonation and responded: "Good day sir, I am trying hard to work this out. Your first contact demanded I come out the day after you purchased. This was not possible as the trucks where already scheduled and we were not in your area. It clearly states that appointments are to be scheduled 1 week out on the deal you purchased. It also states they will be preformed during our regular business hours. This allows grouping of jobs in areas.I had Angies list contact you as I thought you may have thought the system let you make appointment. We always set these up via the phone to try to work around schedules. There are multiple days we are in certain areas and it is easier to discuss and give options. Angies list informed me you would contact us. We do answer our phones. If it is the same out of state number over and over it is 9 times out of 10 a solicitation. If a call is missed and a message left during normal business hours it is usually returned within 10 minutes. We try very hard to be a good company and offer a good value. We are trying to earn long term clients. I do not feel you have given us a fair chance. Your last message demanding that we come out after business close or on a weekend or you will write a bad review. That again sir is not fair. I understand you have a tough schedule and would be glad to try to work something out. I have contacted Angies list to let them know you are unhappy and wish a refund. I spoke to a supervisor by the name of Christopher Jones. He will be in touch with you about your refund via email. I am sorry that we could not work things out." Member responded with a very long email item by item telling us again how poorly we run a company. Member ended email stating:Let me know when you will show up after 5 or on a weekend, or indicate you refuse. We responded that we had contacted Angies list to issue a refund for the purchase. The next morning the member texted me several times wanting to know when I was going to be out to do service he paid for. I tried to call number he texted from but he would not answer. I texted back that a refund was being issued. Member then posted on our message center to Angies list that we refuse to provide the service and to issue a refund. I thought it was finally over. No such luck. Member then had his assistant starting the next day call dozens of times a day from a number that came up as a call center. My office was instructed to not answer the calls. After 3 days of constant over and over calls I, the owner, called the assistant back. He informed me it was not acceptable that I not preform the inspection. I was over the member's inability to even coordinate scheduling with us and the continual harrassment of phone calls. The member was having an assistant call us repeatedly after hours and demanding an after hours appointment that we don't offer. I informed the assistant we would not be working for his boss, but if the member would like to call me I would be glad to explain my reasoning to him.

Performed full check and adjustment of my irrigation system. then ask them to provide estimate to replace my controller. The price of the new controller was very reasonable (including installation)and they completed the installation in a very professional manner. I plan to have them perform annual inspection of my irrigation system. Very pleased with their service!

It was an Angie's List Big Deal that I purchased. It was good. He fixed some things that I would have never known. I spent additional for parts and labor. They were super busy and they came one morning at 7:30. I had no complaints about their responsiveness. I didn't compare their price.

We had severe pest (insect - ants and other insect) problem They cured the problem on the very first visit, and then followed up every other month - we have had absolutely no problems since then. The people are very nice, and dependable - I rarely see them (I am at work when they perform their work) but can tell after they have sprayed, etc. I recommend them very highly and will continue to use them

They were fine. They did everything they promised to do. There were additional charges beyond the big deal amount for some heads or whatever that needed to be replaced. It was reasonably priced. It wasn't overcharged. They did exactly what they were supposed to do. I've had other people work on my sprinkler system and I was highly disappointed. I had no complaints with them. I thought they were honest and reasonably priced.
