  Akland Pump & Irrigation

  I would definitely not recommend Akland Pump. During the purchase of our home, I ordered a 4 hour well test from Akland Pump. After 2 hours I received a call that said I was getting 15 gpm and didn't need to continue the other 2 hours. Later I found out the whole test was done on a spigot on the side of the house. The house has a 500 gallon holding tank with a pump so of course it is going to get a consistent 15 gpm. This was not disclosed to me until after the house was purchased that the well test was done on an outside spigot of the house. I also asked for the static level and was told well is too deep and would have to pull pump to get that information. This was our first home and first time dealing with a well so we did not know a lot about wells. We researched and found 15 gpm is decent. We continued with the purchase of the home. 1 month into the house the well began making noises. I had another company come out to take a look and they instantly told me I was getting 2 to 3 gpm. They also were able to tell me the static level without pulling the pump. They informed us that the pump was failing. I went to Akland to inform them of everything and long story short was told tough luck. We ended up paying $10,800 for a new pump and new check valves. Now the system is working at 10 gpm. We would not have purchased the home if the well test had come back at 2 to 3 gpm unless seller fixed the pump. Akland Pump did not do a proper well test and even admitted to not checking the static level knowing they could. Akland also installed an irrigation tank during the purchase of the home. I had asked for this to ensure that enough water could be supplied for landscape (Seller paid for this). Akland did the work but left a pile of rocks from the work they did. I had to show them pictures of their work and then they came back to level the ground. While they installed the irrigation tank, they asked my neighbor to borrow a shop vac. Akland Pump returned the shop vac dirty and full of water.

  Joe's Yard Service

  We embarked on a large landscaping project in our small yard that included both front and backyards. We employed Joe���s Lawn Service. The major concern was replacing the old retaining wall in the back that was reaching the end of its life. It was built using rail road ties and many of those were rotting. We wanted a block wall to replace it. Other aspects of the project included installing steps in both front and back yards using block and paving stones. In the front we wanted a landing pad for folks arriving in cars. Guests should be able to step out curbside onto a safe spot and ascend to the front door on safe steps ��� thus avoiding the perilous climb up a steep driveway - often filled with cars ��� that is factually lethal in winter. Texans were born to shovel a lot of stuff, but not snow. We were new at a landscaping project of this scale and apprehensive in uncertainty, particularly cost and expectation of final result. The final result exceeded expectation and was within the original estimate and budget, with one exception. We changed our mind and expanded one element. It was worth the added expense. We are satisfied with the result. I was rather amazed by the professionalism and expertise employed. The men formed a high performing team of skilled planners and craftsmen. They were always on time. There were no delays. There was no standing around waiting to be told what to do ��� they knew what to do. When Joe agreed to do something, he did it. For those of us that believe in honest, hard work, it was a true pleasure to watch ��� as I did daily. The work was heavy, hot, and dusty. They carried in wheelbarrows every bit of block, gravel, sand, and paving stone into a backyard that had no access for a vehicle. And they carried out every old timber. Although my language skills are minimal, they made it easier with their patient, polite demeanors. I guess you could call them gentlemen. I particularly noted their respect for each other. Consequently, I have enormous respect for this outfit.

  R H Irrigation

  Won't return phone calls. Have been leaving messages at # listed in phone book & internet listing for past 4 weeks. No response. He does good work and has a reputation for being fair, but I hire professionals because I don't know where to begin to fix the problem. His unresponsiveness is majorly frustrating.

  Joe's Yard Service

  Shortly into his first visit, Jose requested $270 check up front for supplies. His worker took out several existing sprinkler heads and put in new ones. The pressure was still not adequate to cover all brown spots in lawn. I did not receive a receipt or list of purchased supplies. A few days later Jose requested another check for $500 for more supples. The same worker returned and put in a full day's work in removing old filtering system and putting in a new one. He worked fast and was very courteous. I was told that Jose would be by that day with receipt for supplies and cost of labor. I emailed him twice in the next few weeks. Jose responded per email and agreed to come by with a complete receipt but never did so. I had complained about the low water pressure and was told that I should rework the piping system because too many sprinkler heads were on the same section of pipe. I believe Jose is dishonest and deceitful businessman. Please get everything in writing ahead of time but I wouldn't recommend hiring him.

  Joe's Yard Service

  The association of value, veracity, experience and superior customer reviews combine to make Joe?s Yard Service one of the best in Yakima. Previous customer reviews influenced my decision to hire Joe and his staff for the tasks described below. 
  Task 1 ? Large tree trimming and overgrowth removal
  Joe?s crew removed or cut back some very large limbs and overgrowth from two large trees (approximately 60-75 feet high), a difficult, dangerous task that required climbing each large tree.  He also trimmed 10-20 feet from some overgrown arborvitae along a 100+ foot section along my back fence that had invaded power and telephone lines.
  His staff: experienced, quick and efficient.   His crew of 5 had to identify changing dangerous conditions due to the height, size of the limbs removed and the presence electrical supply and telephone wires.    One climbed each tree, another controlled the
  large limb removal as they were cut, hoisted and lowered to the ground for removal by his ground crew.  His ground
  crew hand carried all the small branches out of the backyard, cleaned the surface below and shaped or blended the existing ornamental bushes.   They cut and neatly stacked the large limbs for firewood.
  Bid Estimate - $2800.00 including tax and 3 days to complete, equitable, or less, when compared to other bids. 
  Customer Satisfaction ?   A+.  They completed the job in 2.5 days with instructions to his staff to complete
  the job to the customer?s satisfaction.  
  Task 2 ? Landscape mature plantings of rhododendrons
   Joe brought in one of his staff experienced in construction of retaining walls and landscaping.  He suggested large block to assist drainage and prevent erosion which was more expensive but less labor intensive.  Each block and the crushed gravel had to be hand carried from the front to the back of my home.
   His staff removed the old bender board  and laid out the design for the existing  space.  They laid the base course of block on crushed gravel; blocks were cut to fit and the base leveled .  They added successive courses and back filled each with crushed gravel careful to preserve the existing underground sprinkler system. 
  Bid Estimate - $2800.00 including tax and 1.5 days to complete.
  Actual Cost - $3265 ? The job required that I purchase an additional $465.00 in material, a necessary cost due to material  loss when blocks were cut , additional gravel, placement of additional courses of block and steps that added to the overall symmetry of the space.
  Customer Satisfaction  ?  A+.   They completed the task in a week because they had to obtain additional
  material and meet previous commitments.  They provided the procurement and placement of additional material
  without additional charges for labor.

  Star Sprinklers

  Excellent. I had called them earlier this year - but too late to book them to turn on our new yard's sprinklers. He was very busy but spent the time giving me excellent detailed instructions on what to do and how to do it. New house, new yard, and we never owned a sprinkler system before. To top it off, this was a totally new climate to us. My goal was to hold our own this season and make sure I contacted them early enough next year. Marv was extremely helpful in explaining things I asked about on this visit and I look forward to working with he and his wife next year. Highly recommend!

  Joe's Yard Service

  Joe has cleaned up my yard beautifully. He suggested adding low voltage LCD lighting, which came out beautifully. He repairs sprinklers, fertilizes the lawn and pulls all weeds for one price per week. Blowing out sprinkler systems is included. He also built a beautiful raised bed for me with a block wall. It is on a slight hill, so considerable digging was involved. Joe and his family do a great job for me. This is the first year I've used a yard service. I recommend his company highly.
  Joe also offers a discount on replacement plants for any that fail, even if they were not planted by him. He assisted with putting new latches on my gates so my dogs don't escape. He has a good all-round maintenance service.
