"Got quotes fair price first was going to be extra because of all the leaves that needed to be picked up and extra trim leaves were never picked up, then next schedule date no show a week later they came by only did the back because they were running late and would come back the following week to do the front yard that never happened. When I called their office and explained this to the lady she stated she would talk to owner and would get back to me that never happened then a couple of weeks later one of their works knocked to see if I needed service I stated the above and said yes please he started to blow the leaves out front five minutes later they were gone and paid each time. I called their office and this time I spoked to the owner he stated the same as the lady before him and I got the same results no replies and now they avoid my calls."

"I enjoyed interacting with Blake who is so knowledgeable about plants, habitat, and drought/ heat tolerances. I also support his non use of pesticides and passed on non-toxic approaches to tame weeds. However. In places the plantings were sparse and requested additional plantings , to no avail. I will try in the future to be specific, and with more gusto. Lastly he is somewhat expensive but it is worth it because of his extensive landscape and irrigation system knowledge. He helped to set up our irrigation system in a better way. I would gladly interact with Blake again but with clear goals specified. I give Blake my highest recommendation"
