DESCRIPTION OF WORK
I contract Matt Wiegand to put in a french drain, change the pitch of my yard and put in a paver patio. We started with the bids fall 2011 and ran out of time to get it done until spring 2012. I was suppose to be his first job of the year, but he did not start it until May 2012. He dug up my entire side yard to put in a french drain, put in a patio and was suppose to install a gas line to the new gas firepit. He did not complete it until sometime in August. He tied the drain into my house footers, which is not suppose to happen. First rain, water poured into my basement and it flooded. Matt came out, reluctently, said he would get a plumber the following morning to my house. This was at 5 PM and water was still pouring in from the foundation. I had to call a plumber and get it fixed myself. The new contractor found the drain tied to the footer drains, the electrical hookups outdoors were not outside wires, the french drain was not tied to any drain and the list goes on and on. Will be curious if any of the new plants are alive this spring. Terrible experience.

Hi this is Matt Wiegand with alternative landscapes and I would like this opportunity to tell my side of this story. First of all when we began the job we did struggle with very wet conditions and there was no final grade on the property along with standing water which made conditions much worse . We even went as far as to rotitill the entire backyard just to try to get it to dry out so we could g...RATED
