Josh performed the work he said he was going to do and at the price agreed. I could count on him and his crew to arrive on time (or early) for all appointments, or to call well in advance to advise of any delays. That in itself was worth the price of admission, as there was concrete work and a sprinkler installation going on at the same time, and those contractors were not so conscientious. In fact, Josh was happy and able to juggle his work schedule a couple of times to accommodate the shortcomings of the other providers. He kept us informed of what was happening with the project, and we made some minor changes along the way. Josh was always agreeable to our requests for changes, and made some good suggestions for changes himself. A few of the changes we requested were additions that would cost extra, which we expected. The additional costs were very reasonable. Josh did not request additional money for any of the changes he suggested, although I am sure that some of them increased his expense.
The original plan included a small amount of sod to be replaced in one area of our lawn that had been damaged by a fungus the year before. But the sprinkler guy tore up the lawn so badly that there was hardly grass left alive or exposed. Recognizing the situation, and where were were on the cost vs the budget, Josh graciously offered to re-sod the entire yard at a highly reduced price. We agreed. Josh juggled his schedule and was out with his crew within a few days to perform that work.
Since completion of the work, Josh has stopped by several times to check the health and status of the plants and sod, usually knocking at the door to speak with us, and sometimes only sending a text message like, and quot;Stopped by this afternoon, don't think the maple is getting enough water.and quot; On one visit Joshed noticed that there might be some fungus appearing on the lawn. He came back within a few days and treated it at no charge.
The only criticism I have is that a few of the plants were placed too closely together or too close to the house. We talked about this on one of his visits. Josh readily agreed that they could have done a better job with that, and a few of them do need to be relocated. But the middle of summer is not the time to do it, so he will be coming back in the fall to move some of them around. Gotta respect a guy who is willing to recognize his mistakes and take responsibility to fix them. And I have no doubt that he will return as promised.
I would hire Josh again without hesitation. In fact, I will be hiring him again soon to do some work in the back area near our pool.
By the way, this review was delayed only because I have been so busy over the last few months.
This yard/landscaping company started out doing our yard in 2013 and did an excellent job but as a lot of landscaping companies do, the more they take on the more their quality begins to suffer. This company as far as we can tell never fertilized our yard, or put pre-emerge on for new weeds that come up in the summer. They would come in and blast through the yard never pulling weeds in the flower beds, but they did transfer Bermuda grass in our flower bed of Jasmine ground cover from someone else's yard which should have never been done. Now if someone comes in and tries to kill the Bermuda grass it will destroy all of my ground cover that we have worked so very hard to get to grow. We have Saint Augustine. They would trim our bushes in the front and never touch the back. My husband talk to a women at the company and made a complaint and she came out and pull Bermuda grass out of our beds herself until the rain chased her in last week. Then the yard people descended on our yard last Thursday, with her overseeing the work and they did a bang up job, cutting bushes, edging, mowing, etc. It just shows you, when supervised by higher ups, the job gets done correctly which is ashamed that you can't get the quality of work all the time that you pay for.
Texpro has been a good pick for my landscaping needs.
We thought the price was somewhat high based on the amount of time spent on the bed and the cost of the shrubs (which was outlined in the estimate). Overall, he spent about 2 - 2 1/2 hours on the bed and the labor was $650 so that seemed a bit high.
We really like Josh and would like to continue to use him but we will need to be selective about the services we use as we have to be somewhat cost conscious.
