We hired Matt Gordon with YardEscape LLC in October 2023 to do landscaping at our new home. He…read morerequested $5,000 upfront for "supplies" and said the rest would be due in installments once work began. After reviewing the design, we decided we needed more time before moving forward. When we decided not to move forward with his design, Matt stated he used all our money for "supplies" and that he would have to "sell back" the supplies in order to be able to afford to pay us back. No supplies were ever delivered to our house, and despite repeated requests, he has never produced receipts proving he purchased anything. When asked, he stated he was "unorganized and would have to search for them." Matt admitted in writing that he owed us the $5,000 back and would repay us to make things right. Over the past two years, we've had to repeatedly follow up with him, and he has only repaid $3,000. We are still owed $2,000. Matt avoids communication for months at a time and only responds when we threaten to escalate or if I contact him from another number. The excuses never end -- phone shut off, injuries, losing his crew -- and during these times we have been incredibly kind and patient with him. The fact remains: two years later, he still hasn't made things right, and we now feel taken advantage of. I still don't truly know where our $5,000 went. This has been a frustrating and exhausting experience, and I share this review so others know what to expect. Be extremely cautious before doing business with YardEscape LLC or Matt Gordon, and please make sure to get everything in writing.

He made our old, dusty corral into an amazing BBQ pavilion.

The bad--Apparently the usual scenario--Initially they promise you the moon but fall far short. Numerous promises to show up were broken. He brought the wrong bushes and the artificial turf he installed had two obvious seams. The irrigation timer he installed and set himself failed The trees suffered and looked dead. The bushes looked frozen in time except for 1 of the 8 that stayed green. Of course he said it was my fault the timer failed. After numerous additional promises to replace the sorry looking trees and bushes his guys finally showed up. They spent two hours fixing the timer. Of course Hector magnanimously offered to waive his usual fee for the two hours. Never again.

However, a sinkhole appeared within my warranty period and they disappeared and stopped responding to my requests. Once and awhile I would get a promise from Hector that they would be out that week to fix it. No one showed. Months went by and still nothing. It's been 7 months now and I ended up hiring someone else to fix his work! I'm beyond disappointed and would never recommend him to anyone.

Response was quick, and we were scheduled right away for a quote. When we met with the rep, he…read moregave us a company pen instead of a business card. We explained to him our project goals. Although he was knowledgeable, it was odd how he didn't take any measurements or notes, compared to other contractors we met. He reassured us that he will give us a quote. Unfortunately, no response after our meeting. I had a feeling it would end this way after the impression of not taking measurements. It was truly a waste of time for the both of us!

His team has shown up every day and worked really hard each and every day. To me, with working with so manny contractors in the past that didn't clean up the job site each day was terrible. Craig's team left the job site clean each and every day. I would highly recommend them. They go the extra mile installing retaining walls and every part of the job is done really well. Craig meets with you every day to make sure the plan is how you want it and his team puts the plants and every part of the process the way you want it. This is the first contracting/construction service over 3 homes in the past 25 years of living in Arizona, that I would recommend.

Well, 1 pm Thurs we get a text saying not coming and can come out next day. Well, that didn't work cuz we both had to work and asked about tues or weds. Well, never heard back from them. Left a email message on their contact us page on their website asking why no one followed up with us from their no show that I missed a day's income for? Still no one cares to contact us. Professional? I say not. Hilarious that their website quotes "Regardless of the task at hand, we will always respect your preferences, schedule, and budget."

When he did show up, it would be late in the day and he'd work in the dark which resulted in very sloppy work. What should have been a two day job actually took weeks.

I worked with Mike from East Valley Home Services and Repair on a rental property I own in Tempe,…read moreAZ. Since I live out of state, clear communication and reliability were extremely important to me, and Mike delivered on both. I had an exterior door that wasn't sitting correctly. Several other companies told me the door needed to be fully replaced, but Mike took the time to assess the issue and was able to fix it by making adjustments, adding new weather stripping, and properly sealing it. The door now fits tight and functions exactly as it should. My tenant was very happy with the result, especially knowing it's now sealed well enough to keep scorpions out. Mike was communicative, timely, and his pricing was very reasonable. I would absolutely recommend East Valley Home Services and Repair and will be using them again in the future.
