Blades of Glory Landscaping & Lawncare

Description of Work: I initially contacted Blades of Glory shortly after purchasing the Big Deal. Our first consultation was on April 11 and I received the estimate on April 21. The voucher I had purchased was for 15 hours of landscaping but there was no way to know how that was being applied. One line item was "Install 3 yards of small river rock in gardens to the left of porch and underneath love seat." with a price of $300.00 attached to the line item. So is the $300 for materials or for labor? There was no way to tell based upon the written estimate. I had several questions on the initial estimate which I submitted to the owner on April 23. I received a response within a week but still no clarification on how the voucher was being applied. I submitted additional questions on April 28 and scheduled a second consultation for May 9. On May 6 they offered to redo the estimate and included this explanation on the pricing: "you actually receive the discount when you purchase the voucher. So, you pay just $599 for $1200 of labor, a discount of $600. Does that make sense? We actually include labor cost into the pricing of our estimates, so labor is already factored in." I continued email discussions with the service provider and they did try to address my concerns but the more I have thought about it, the more I have realized that I have no idea of whether I am getting the full value of my voucher (15 man hours of work). No where on any of the estimates did it indicate an approximate number of hours for each of the items. Although in my last communication I did indicate that I was willing to wait to have the work completed, I at least expected them to submit some dates so I could get them on my calendar. The last time I heard from them on May 31, they stated "I'll start looking at the schedule and pick out a date to see if it will work for you." And I have not heard from them since that date. I know the owner is young and is trying to get this business off the ground. I really liked him -he's personable and knowledgeable - but he needs to get better organized and be able to submit estimates that explain what the customer is receiving. Thank you.

Description of Work: They were kind and courteous and came out and gave me a quote as I requested. I would recommend them to anyone.

Description of Work: I took the deal sent out by Angie's list for $500 for 15 hrs of landscaping It was an incredible deal. I really think they under bid my project as a crew of 4 were there all day long and never stopped. I had rocks moved to a different location, bushes removed with tree roots, top soil and sod laid , palms cut back, leaves raked and bagged and a new pathway for the rocks. Johnny Garcia is the owner and he is very amazing to work with. All his crew including Johnny are very professional and hard working. They cleaned up all the brush and hauled it away. I paid for the topsoil and sod.They were so efficient , they had already started by 8 am and never stopped until dark. My neighbor is now going to use them for his landscaping. I am verfy impressed with their service and work ethic and will definitely will use them again, and highly recommend them.

Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal through Angie's List. Johnny contacted me about meeting to discuss the work to be done. He arrived earlier than the agreed upon time. He discussed the job with me and provided an estimate of the work to be done.
