"This is the third major project that Phoenix has completed at our home, and the results were equally as impressive as the others. The attention to detail and craftsmanship Phoenix brings to any project they take on is second to none, and it was needed to complete our patio and stairs. The deck portion of the project was complex and required the demolition of part of the existing concrete pad as well as en expansion of the previous footprint. The stairs required similar attention to detail to match the existing second story deck while preserving landscaping and mature azaleas that could not be replaced. Phoenix handled this task flawlessly while going above and beyond the original scope to make modifications that fit our needs and bring our vision to life. I would trust Phoenix to complete any project at our home, and we will certainly be calling them for our next project."

"Summary: I hired Hydro-Tech to install a new Hunter sprinkler controller with a wireless rain sensor, and replace a broken sprinkler head. Communication has been poor throughout, including scheduling. I had issues with the controller immediately after installation. While I contacted the tech who provided the proposal via email the same day as the install occurred (5/25), it's been 11 days since I sent that email and I have received absolutely zero response. Given that I reported the controller as defective within a few hours of the installation and have received no response, I can only assume that Hydro-Tech cannot be trusted for after-installation support in any way. Caution is strongly advised. Full description: I requested a quote to install a new sprinkler controller a replace a broken sprinkler head. I was able to get David Ogurko to come out to provide a quote the next day. He indicated it was a small job and probably wouldn't take more than 1 hour of labor. He said the work could be scheduled relatively quickly. David provided a reasonable quote. The proposal requested 100% payment upfront but I emailed him on May 2nd to request 50% payment in advance, 50% upon completion. Given the small size of the contract, he said I could just pay the entire amount upon completion. I then returned the signed contract on May 3rd. David emailed me on May 4th stating that I would hear back shortly regarding scheduling. As I heard nothing by May 11th, I reached out for information. He responded saying he couldn't schedule the work because he hadn't received payment - even though he previously said I could pay after the work was completed. I forwarded the prior email and he responded, "I will take care of this first thing in the morning." One week later on May 18th, I received an email stating that the work would be completed on the 25th, between 7 and 12 PM. A tech arrived shortly after 7 AM. He installed the controller, replaced the damaged sprinkler head, and physically installed the rain sensor. However, he never setup the rain sensor on the controller. I only discovered this after he left, and I had to call to have it done remotely. I immediately began having issues with the controller. Despite installing a wifi access point in close proximity to the sprinkler controller, and the controller and my Ubiquiti controller reporting a very strong signal, the sprinkler controller would drop off the Wifi approximately 30 minutes after initial setup. Rebooting the device resolved the issue temporarily until it occurred again. I sent an email to David the evening after installation (5/25). It is now Monday, June 5th and I have yet to receive any response from David. I later discovered that the Hunter controller just has very poorly designed Wifi code. Wireless devices are expected to connect to the strongest access point when multiple access points broadcast the same SSID (wifi network). This allows you to seamlessly roam between access points in a large building/home, and works well with most laptops, smartphones, tablets etc.. However, it appears the Hunter controller would connect to the proper access point, and for no apparent reason, drop the connection if it saw other access points broadcasting the same network. When I created a dedicated wireless network for the sprinkler controller only on the access point with the best signal, the issue went away. While I appreciate that it now appears to be working, the fact that I received no response whatsoever from Hydro-Tech indicates that they cannot be trusted to provide any after-install customer service."

"We had an excellent experience working with Mike Erickson and his team from DC Patio. They removed the old concreate patio at the back of our house and installed a new large flagstone patio. They installed a new front stoop and a new front walkway. They performed a new drainage installation. They installed new footings for the deck posts and added decorative gravel under the deck area. They improved the back lawn grading. The quality of job is great. We highly recommend Mike and his team."

"We had a fantastic experience with JK Gardening Lawn & Garden Care, from start to finish. Their pricing was very reasonable, and the quality of service exceeded our expectations. Kevin and his uncle came out to plant 20 emerald green arborvitae trees along our driveway. They dug all the holes by hand, demonstrating incredible effort and precision. They even moved the excess dirt into a neat pile exactly where we requested. Once the job was done, they thoroughly cleaned up and even blew the driveway free of debris. We couldn't be happier with their professionalism and attention to detail. Highly recommend!"

"Great experience from the initial consultation up to the installation. Steve answered all my questions quickly, Joe kept me in the loop on when the installation would happen and then the crew that came out did a terrific job on a fairly large project with 8 zones. I like the phone app that controls the watering system as it makes it so easy to program and schedule."

"Job was completed exactly as requested. They went out of the way to provide exactly what we wanted and even checked in the following year to and fixed discrepencies for free."

"I received an estimate in August, 6-7 months before the 2nd estimate which was end of February. I called to schedule an appointment end of February explaining I was no longer cutting all three trees down, in addition I stated the estimate was confusing. The scheduler conveyed the new estimate may be lower or higher. After some minor scheduling changes the estimator arrived end of February, 40 minutes late. Another company arrived at the same time so appointment was very short. I conveyed the pricing in August and also stated it would be helpful to estimate my neighbor's portion of the stump grinding of the roots which is in my neighbor's yard. Mr. Lopez stated what the price would be to cut the tree down and 1/2 of the stump grinding fee. He waived the tree trimming of the tree next to it (probably as it was likely to be damaged from the other tree being removed) and charged a separate fee for two other trees to be trimmed. I received the estimate but had questions whether the 10% discount was applied as the estimate did not have any discounts. The scheduler stated I was not a new customer but she checked with the estimator who stated he provided a discount already. I then emailed them asking if the 15% Angie's List could be applied instead of the 10%. They spoke to the owner and provided an additional discount of $50. I also claimed a deal with Angie's List for 8 hours of work and clarified how that would work. They stated it would probably be more expensive as they stated an hour is per worker (they did not state how many hours the tree work would take and how many workers they would send but I decided to stick with a flat rate as they could send 4-6 workers and my fee did not include stump grinding in that deal). I told the company I requested Miss Utility mark utilities as my neighbor's roots may be in conflict in regards to the root grinding. My neighbor also asked to meet with the company and receive his own estimate (this was already in my estimate so I agreed to meet with them). The company, a man came out of his truck and rang my neighbor's door bell. He did not identify himself as the owner until I expressed surprise that he stated the estimate I received was from a different company. I described the estimators in August (man and woman) and February (Mr. Lopez) and the owner stated, "the tree is big" and I am re-thinking the estimate." I stated his company gave the same estimate twice already. He asked me if I would consider a bucket truck and I stated, "your estimator did not go over equipment with me, I would be happy to move my cars from the driveway." He stated, "if my estimator told you the amount for the entire job, we may honor it but I will get back to you." Note this is after I received in writing two estimates for the same pricing so I was upset that I should receive a third estimate. My neighbor told me to wait and see. My neighbor emailed me if I had another contractor as this one is not working out. After some debate over how to proceed I asked him what happened. He stated the owner called him and stated, "I am not working for your neighbor due to her poor behavior." I found this strange as I did nothing wrong. My neighbor was told the job is cancelled and he has my tree roots in several places in his front yard raised up about 10 inches above the ground but is willing to live with it for several more years (the previous owner of the house lived in my house for 29 years and did not cut the tree down). Despite my statement I would refer the company for future business they told my neighbor I was the reason they cancelled the job. They never contacted me nor did they respond to my email regarding my statement that my neighbor was told the job was cancelled. I was also surprised at the owner stating he would grind 3-4 inches in the areas marked, "conflict" don't dig within 18 inches of marked utilities but everyone has there own business practices."

"One word describes Next Level: Professionals. Julian and his crew were amazing, worked quick and after digging holes in the yard, they were able to put it back together like they were never there! I will be recommending them to anyone looking for a new sprinkler system."
