  Wish I had followed my instincts and thrown this flyer in the garbage! This company is inexperienced, incompetent and dishonest. I had them do curbing in my backyard, which, other than not cleaning up after themselves, looked great, so I asked for a quote to replace the bark I had with lava rock. The quote I was given seemed reasonable, however, I found out later that the quote was for labor only. Even then, the price of labor was more than double the quote. The amount of materials I was instructed to purchase was insufficient to complete the project. Marco and his crew were not reliable or honest, insisting they'd be there the next day and not showing up or notifying me until I tracked them down. They left bags of waste (sod, dirt, bark) on my lawn for over 2 weeks, which I eventually had to clean up and haul away myself to save the lawn. When the work was completed, there were several spaces not done, weed mat not secured, irrigation lines damaged or broken. I redid the weed mat and completed the project myself. The final price of the project was more than triple the original quote.

  We should have looked at the reviews first. We paid more and got ... unsatisfactory results. What we asked for was acknowledged, agreed on, and promised. Marco helped now and then, but Danny worked very hard and did most of the work. Because Danny did most of the work, it took longer than the time we agreed on. Because it took longer, it cost us more. We bought our own plants. They planted them. Unfortunately, some of the plants died because they were not given any water (drip irrigation.....that was promised). Some sod was laid. Some of that is dying because they didn't take care with the sprinklers...like they said they would. They borrowed our wheelbarrow. We've asked for it back. They said they would. Still nothing. We paid what was agreed, but the landscaping was left unfinished. What was left unfinished was not add-on work. It was work agreed on at the beginning. If they come back, they will ask for more money. They can take longer because they didn't use enough workers (or because they started late and ended early), but they will ask for more....because it took longer. Even if you agree on a "fixed bid," the work will still be left incomplete. Then the dilemma is...on-going costs! They tried to send one of our checks through for payment twice. We checked with our bank and the check was paid on time. Be careful.

  Wish I could give negative stars. This company is not professional and Marcus (Marc/Marco) has no idea what he is doing. He quoted me 4 days of labor for my project, he has been here 9 days and has not completed everything in the scope of work. Many areas we needed fixes looked good on the outside but when looking underneath were done incorrectly and probably will fail within weeks. We are literally paying him off to just leave. We are going to have to spend additional money to fix his work. After much micromanagement and discussions the job that was completed looks decent however, it cost us 3x the initial quote.
