First off, Sharon insisted that we get the house appraised and provided us with her so-called excellent appraiser "James Moore". Don't go with him either. He was supposed to look into many homes in the area and consider the increase in home prices, etc. but he did none of that. Instead, he took six days to get back to us, told me on the phone that he had completed the appraisal within a few hours and called us past 9:00 p.m. the night before we wanted to list the house. He compared our home to ones in the same neighborhood only and did not consider any of our upgrades and energy efficiencies. The homes he compared were sold over 3 months ago or longer. He also sized it much smaller than our original appraiser had done. When I told Sharon what he came up with, not only did she tell me to go with his sizing (which is ridiculous) but she also said that we should price it at what he said or LOWER! That was crazy and for some reason, we bought it. We went slightly higher and that was not enough. She was obviously dying for us to make a quick sale and didn't want to do any work to get the money. I will describe more later as to the poor experience but in the meantime, another house in our small neighborhood sold for over $20/sq. ft more than ours and was not upgraded as ours was. Their bathroom was remodeled but nothing else was. We remodeled all bathrooms and kitchen, had travertine floor and hand-scraped wood floors, new landscaping, 16 Seer A/Cs, radiant barriers, and more. We had architectural features including the alcove for our wood-burning stove. I figure that we lost over $100,000 due to her tactics and the way she bullied us. I have been suffering for over a month in depression because of this. More details. The house was supposed to be listed on Thursday and I saw no evidence of it other than on her website. On Friday, I asked questions as to where the listings were online and was told it would take time. Finally, Sharon told me that it was on MLS and Realtor.com. I looked and it wasn't there. I sent an email to her and her staff and finally got a reply. Apparently, one of them forgot to check the box to post it to the internet. So it didn't get published to the two sites until Friday afternoon. We didn't have anyone call on Saturday but we did have two showings on Sunday. The people that saw it told her they would offer us something that night - we got the message just after their appointment viewing time ended. They offered us less money and Sharon told me that we should accept it. We counter-offered and she sounded very annoyed and didn't agree. Of course, they accepted it. We should have never priced it so low. What amazes me is that I see here that she is selling another home in Coppell for $175/sq. ft. She could have done that with us and allowed us to not lose money on our home. We told her that it was a sellers' market, that prices were rising, that homes were scarce and that we had lots of time. None of that worked - she insisted that we should price the home so that the banks would accept it based on other homes. That was all garbage. Obviously, banks are providing mortgages for higher-priced homes; and she's selling one of those homes (actually, I had seen on her site at that time that she was selling another for over $170/sq.ft). I don't know why she argued with us and coerced us to lose money. We spent over $200,000 on the home within the last five years (we lived it in less than five years) and we barely got that money back. Plus we had to pay the realtor fees, etc. out of our own pocket. Looking back, she must have just wanted the money quickly and not have to do any work. Her behavior is unethical. I had read a review about her on Yelp prior to choosing her and made the mistake of not considering it. The person had the same bad experience. She bullied him and got away with it. Another thing - she never stood up for us. Every time the other agent requested something, she would just pass on the email. She never gave us advice, only sent us his requests. Let me say something else about her team. They don't communicate with each other. I had to tell them what to fix in the flyer they prepared of our home. They had stupid irrelevant info in there where there were lots of things that could sell the house. They even had a line "appraised at ___". I told them to take it out because there was obviously no appraisal value we wanted shown since it was so low. I spent time fixing the "features" list and sent it to them only to get back the same thing. The sign had not been put up until the last minute and neither was the lock-box. I had to tell them to do it. Sharon gave us a long sales pitch when we met her yet never gave us any references. She refers to how her listings get on all these sites, but when you look at the URLs, there are multiple repeats and the data is old - some sites don't even exist. Please trust me that Sharon does not have your best interest at heart. I suggest you go with someone who is at least nice and takes into consideration what you want. We fully regret ever hiring her.

"I hired Viking to iinstall new tank and pump. The pump went out so I called for repair service. I had no water for almost a week. Calls went unreturned. When Sheldon finally returned my call he said he was too busy and would not come to check on problem for another week. He said that I was on my own and to call the vendor that sold him the pump. I paid over $7000.00 for lousy customer service and faulty equipment that didn?t last for more than a few years.
Do not hire this company. "

FAQs for landscaping projects in Fredericksburg, TX
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
If you want landscaping done but want to save some money on the overall fees, you can do a few things at every stage. Some ways to save money on your landscaping include:
Repurpose existing features and materials
Softscape instead of hardscape
Choose the more inexpensive materials
DIY when you can
Buy young plants instead of mature ones
If you are an avid DIYer and have plenty of time to dedicate to your yard, doing your own landscaping (or at least some of it) can be an affordable option. Projects like planting a tree, planting grass, laying sod, or building a firepit can realistically be done without the need for a landscaping professional. However, these projects can take considerable time and some landscaping knowledge, so having a pro might save you in the long run.
Projects that are dangerous, like digging with heavy machinery or removing a tree, should always be done by a professional.
Landscaping costs around $3,500 but varies widely from $200 to $14,000. Factors that play a part in your final landscaping price tag include:
Location
Yard size
Project size
Materials
Land preparation
Type of landscaping
Considering so many factors, it’s not surprising that the overall costs can differ. A typical landscaping project is flower bed installation, which averages between $800 and $3,000. However, landscape lighting installation is a higher-end project, with a price tag of $2,000 to $6,000.
