Bill and team did an outstanding job. They delivered everything I asked for in a reasonable amount of time. All team members were courteous, anxious to help and did not leave until all work was done and approved by me. Really a nice job...transformed our backyard. Would hire them for any kind of yard or odd job. They are fantastic. This is our third time using their service.

After some initial confusion about scheduling the first visit, Jim came by and we spent 30-45 minutes going over all the work that needed to be done with landscaping and yard maintenance. He was thorough and easy to communicate with and I thought we had a winner. When the visit was winding down, he said he would send in a detailed estimate in no more than three days. That was eight days ago and we've received no word since which is troubling because we have a few things that require immediate attention. Yet, I've seen, since then, Jim respond to several people seeking help with their lawns on the NextDoor app. This is too bad, especially since they are headquartered just a few streets away from our house. Reading the other negative reviews on Angies's List and seeing the responses from the folks at Bill's, I know this will somehow be blamed on us (e.g., we weren't patient enough, we didn't wait long enough for the estimate, we didn't contact them enough times to remind them about the estimate, we didn't check our spam folders, etc.). When someone gives their word that a particular thing will be done in a specific time frame, it is not up to the potential customer to find out why a promise went unfulfilled. This, ultimately, is a measure of professionalism and first impressions do matter a great deal.
Response from BILL'S YARD & ODD JOB SERVICE
"We will respectfully respond to [Member Name Removed] s F rating on Angie's List, simply by offering our sincere apology that he was inconvenienced. We received a request for an estimate on 07/30/2018. We emailed Mr. [Member Name Removed] on 07/30/2018 offering an estimate for 8/3/18 at 10am (his specified time requested on his web submission form). We asked if that date did not work for him to offer an alternative. We did not receive a reply to this email offer for an estimate walk through. On 08/03/2018 we received an email from Mr. [Member Name Removed] asking if the estimator would be showing up for the appointment. After researching our system, we found that Mr. [Member Name Removed] had not replied to our email scheduling offer of 8/3/18. We immediately offered an appointment that same afternoon. We agreed on a new date 8/6/18 at 10am. This is the "confusion" that occurred with regard to scheduling the estimate walk through stated at the beginning of Mr. [Member Name Removed]'s F Rating review. As to the estimate write-up - we are delayed in sending out the write-ups and should have communicated with Mr. [Member Name Removed] that he would not receive what he was promised. This promise to send the estimate write-up should not have been extended and typically exact time frames are not offered or promised during our busiest seasons. While we do provide our estimates free of charge, we have time invested in them and understand the potential customer does as well. We would have appreciated an email asking if the estimate had been sent or was otherwise in the works to be sent. Instead, our first knowledge of Mr. [Member Name Removed]'s issue is posted here on Angie's List. We make our best effort to reply to requests promptly and follow-up timely as outlined with the scheduling confusion. In this case we did not follow-up as promised at the estimate and again sincerely apologize that Mr. [Member Name Removed] was inconvenienced."

It was great. They came when I was available and tailored the estimate to my needs and budget. I'm very particular about the day and time to meet and get the work done. They were very accommodating to my work schedule. The guys that did the work were very professional. They even knocked on the door and asked me if I wanted to move my car so they didn't get it dirty since I just washed it. I really appreciate the little things such as that.

Response from BILL'S YARD & ODD JOB SERVICE
"Bill's Yard Service offers FREE ESTIMATES to potential customers. We make every effort to accommodate each person to avoid conflicts with their schedules. We try to schedule a time to meet the potential customer in person, offering hours that will best work with their schedule, even on the weekends if need be. The estimates are performed in detail with the customer so they are able to ask questions and provide information so that a full spectrum write-up is possible. In order to be given a fair and valuable estimate we like to conduct appointment times during daylight hours and be able to meet with potential customers starting around 10 am until one hour before dusk. Each estimate performed is tailored to the customer's landscaping needs and budget allowing them to select or deselect services. We do not perform automated estimates therefore our turnaround time may be lengthier then a larger company. We do apologize that we did not meet your expectations and timely response. Thank you for your review."

Great, they showed up with a team. Bill was there supervising the whole process. They did a great job for a good price. My husband who works nights was sleeping and he barely noticed they were there. When we woke up he said, "wow the gutters look great!".

My yard backs up to a wildly overgrown area that spills into my yard from all sides, including vines stretching across the yard and a partially damaged fence line. It's not something I could manage on my own or even get to a point where I could try to get it under control without more professional help. Bill's Yard & Odd Job Service worked within my budget to handle the upkeep quickly and put together a monthly quote to help keep it contained.

The process of getting an estimate and agreeing on the work and price was professional and timely. The price was well over my budget and I settled on just taking care of the most critical branches. They arrived when expected, completed the work in short order and made sure to bag and bundle the cuttings and leave them at the curb.

Horribly - they spread only 1/4"-1/2" thick of mulch (it was more pine bark nuggets than mulch) throughout the yard. I called to complain, sighting the industry standard practice of a minimum of 3"-4", which the installer acknowledged but refused to install. The owner of Bill's Yard & Odd Job Service showed up in my backyard announced, where he became argumentative and borderline combative. After a lot of back and forth, we finally settled on half his fee. However, I've had to re-mulch the entire yard because the thin pine nuggets they installed mostly washed away in subsequent rain storms.
Response from BILL'S YARD & ODD JOB SERVICE
"We tailor all of our services to fit our client's needs and budget limitations. In this case, pricing was a concern so we spoke of a scope of work and decided on a cosmetic refresh since the yard was in good shape. We gave the customer an estimate based on that cosmetic refresh. The estimate was approved and the work performed. After the work was completed, we were notified that there was a discrepancy with the service that the customer expected and the service received. The customer then revealed that he worked in the industry and did not believe the work met "industry standard" for refresh of mulch. In an effort to amicably resolve the issue the customer was asked in a terse straight forward way what he thought would be fair. He stated a 50% discount and to value all involved parties' time the discount was granted as a settlement albeit in informal manner; now breached. We settled the matter as the customer suggested even though it meant a loss for us - not even covering the cost of the materials. We felt we had resolved the issues to the customer satisfaction. We strive to make all of our clients yards look beautiful within their budgets. Please call us for a free estimate today. If you have a dream for your house and its landscaping, we will try to come up with a solution that fits for you."

The lawn was in bad shape. Some small areas didn't grow so they came back and re-seeded those spots and had better results.

Jim was very understanding of my needs during the initial walk through and was very helpful when making suggestions about which services could be performed and thoughts on how to perform some ongoing maintenance once the cleanup was complete. The work was performed about a week later with everything being completed as planned.

very well, Jim was very easy to work with, listened carefully to what I wanted done, and implemented plans in a timely fashion. The job turned out even better than I thought it would. A great team working for him, Jim was present the whole time to supervise and make sure I got what I wanted.

Bill's Yard Service is great - we are very busy and are able to communicate our needs over email; take screen shots from googlemaps, describe work we need done and we get a very good estimate. They are prompt, professional and do exactly what is agreed to, and is easy to pay on line. Excellent folks to work with - especially for very busy people that need big and little jobs done around the yard!

It was bit pricey because we have a small yard, but I understand they need the minimum to make it work. Even so, they did a great job--came exactly when promised, did an extremely thorough job, and really were responsive. They'll be my go to from now on.

This probably qualifies for "odd job". We do pretty much all our own yardwork and landscaping, but I injured my ankle and am on crutches. I had some things that had to get done, but I also am picky about how it's done. So I called Bill to hire a laborer for an hour to do the work at an appointed time, using my own equipment. The worker, Chris, showed up precisely on time, which is very important to me. He then proceeded to follow my instructions very closely and was very professional. He hustled the whole time and in the end it took two hours of work but that was solely because of the quantity of work and I'm always too optimistic about how quickly it will go. The hourly rate ($95) was a bit stiff but I was willing to pay it if they were on time and did the work well, both of which they did. I don't know when I'll need them again (in theory my ankle is healing) but I would hire again.
