Review: Irrigation System Service

Irrigation services

I scheduled them to come give me an estimate for irrigation work. After only a couple of minutes the guy told me it would cost $960 total with $300 of that for a single part, a part that can be bought for $60. He gave no breakdown of how he came up with that outrageous number and was gone after less than 5 minutes total. He didn't even give me anything in writing, which is the most important part of getting an estimate. Maybe he thought I didn't know any better and could throw a huge number out there. The whole experience was shady. I'd stay away.

Front Yard Landscape

Excellent communication. Timely and professional service. I had an idea of what I wanted but Oscar was able to give me advice and suggestions on details.

Originally I asked for a small retaining wall, a 7' X 7' patio, staggered stepping stone pathway and crushed rock for my side yard and front yard. He went the extra steps to find the colored pebbles I wanted for the yard at a price that was affordable. I was really pleased with the out come of the job and felt comfortable enough to trust Oscar to do the job without me being there. A few weeks later I had them back to finish the back yard.

Oscar and his crew were professional, friendly and affordable. The whole job looked so nice, I would recommend Down Under Services to anyone needing landscaping work.

Down Under Services provides regular, scheduled landscape maintenance service on our property.

Oscar and his crew have been providers of the landscape maintenance services for our family's rental property. As I am not local, it is important to me that services are done on schedule and with professionalism. They have certainly been reliable and more important than that, have been very respectful of the needs of our tenants. Since contracting with Down Under Services, we have had multiple tenants in the property and each of them have shared the same positive experience. Their prices are reasonable and their professionalism is refreshing.

Down Under Services did a complete make-over to a more drought tolerant landscape two years ago, and they now do our ongoing yard maintenance on a weekly basis.

The best landscape crew we have had in 30 years of owning this home! They pay great attention to detail, and are quick to respond if a problem arises. They work hard, have a great attitude, and are very professional. Our yard always looks so great, and we receive many compliments from the neighbors.

Review: Electrician Service
3 years ago

We originally asked for a retaining wall and stairs to be built. They did such a great job, we had them replace a cracked driveway, new walkway and front porch, removed decorator rock front and back yard and replaced with shaved bark, installed new irrigation system and trimmed neighbor's tree. Great job again. So, we had them do our landscaping, and now our gardening every 2 weeks.

We are so pleased with the entire project. They did a wonderful job. All the workers were so nice. Oscar has a great crew.

CA State License Board shows suspended License

Service Provider Response
License is suspended because we are replacing the qualified individual, as we are allowed to , because personnel change from time to time . You DO NOT need a contractors license to do maintenance work . Why would you rate us an F because of that , it's about our quality of work and service?

Review: Irrigation System Service
3 years ago

Irrigation services to replace an existing set up in my yard. Went from sprinklers (grass) to drippers (drought tolerant).

Not as well as we hoped. It looked good a first when Omar came by, quoted us $600 for the job, and initially installed the tube system. Then he "discovered" that we needed new regulators (two) because the water pressure was too high. Even with the new regulators that were an additional purchase item, the dripper heads all kept falling off. Omar was really good by coming back to "fix" them by putting them back on the tubes. The first time was a bit of a challenge because he didn't respond to texts or calls (he said his phone broke and it took him a few weeks to get a new one). But the next time the watering timer went off, so did the dripper heads (yet again). He said he'd come back again to see what he could do, but he also said that he did not know what else to do because regulators only take the water pressure down to 30 psi (I later learned this is inaccurate). He made an appointment for noon last Sunday (7/24/2016), so we stayed home and waited. And waited. No response to texts. No response to phone calls. Haven't seen or heard from him since! Fast forward to now. We went to Home Depot for guidance (though Omar told us not to go there). Seems that drippers come in adjustable versions to accommodate a range of water PSI. We had to buy new tubing, because the tubes he initially installed were stretched out at the ends from repeatedly having the drippers pop off and then get pushed back in. We bought several sets of new dripper heads (adjustable ones!) and re-laid both new tubing and dripper heads. Now ... all is well. Would I hire them again? No way. Omar was very polite. But he is neither reliable not effective. And I still have not had any response from him since he stood us up last Sunday.

Landscape maintenance

Sorry, I tried. I tried really hard. I hired Oscar and his team for over six months at twice a month. They did a reasonable if a little expensive Jon on irrigation. Rates for fertilization were so ridiculously high that I just did it myself. But the issue was weeds. His team refused to do a good job pulling weeds. There are weeds throughout the lawn in the planter beds, between rocks... Despite at least a dozen complaints, and saying that I had I had fired five gardeners previously for weed issues. Now, six...

Service Provider Response
? If you have fired 6 gardeners for the same issue , do you think it's a possibility , that your requirements are not realistic ? Weeds in lawn , as you were advised , cannot be pulled because they re grow . They need to be destroyed systematically , with approved herbicides. We also advised that we do not hold a license to spray pesticides, and we will not perform illegal activities even if threatened with having a report placed on Angies list .

I have hired them for a twice monthly yard service. I also had them regrade the back yard and put in some retaining wall and drainiage to control water flow.

It went very well and I recommend them for not only the special yard cleanup and monthly yard care, but also the regrading and other things I asked them to do in the yard.
