    Eh. Small business. Seemed honest. I knew it was a gamble…read morewith only 24 reviews on here. 2025: Got a bid for job 1. Price was so good asked for bid for job 2. Agreed to proceed with one bid at a time. Glad I did that. BTW bids came in far lower than other competitors. Now I know why. I'm not going to bash the experience with detail, but here's something to note: Skeleton crew. The regular down to earth blue collar workers they were had me trusting them but I found myself constantly asking questions as after the contract was signed, communication slowed drastically. I thought more detail would be discussed. Think this particular job was out of their lane and, to me, they left it incomplete/did the bare minimum/ couldn't wait to get outta there. They also were random in their work schedule. Sometimes there for half a day then you wouldn't see em for days. It took at least double the time projected. Thought maybe it could be a fluke as there were some noticeable issues with the business which seemed out of their control, so asked for some updates to job 1 bid. I was assured a bid would be revised/sent, but ironically, I cut the final check for the job completed, then I was ghosted. Tried to give this business benefit of the doubt, but they constantly showed red flags. Hey if you like letting a businesses take full control of your project, its basic and you don't really care about detail, this is a business for you. A lot of the photos show very basic 101 jobs completed on here. Hope everyone learns something from my experience.

    I had this company come out last summer. He built a couple of retaining walls and performed that…read morework beautifully. However the landscape portion was terrible. First of many problems: the watering controller he installed did not work properly from the get-go. I told Pete about it and requested a receipt for the controller (it was the end of the job so he wasn't planning to return). Instead he came out and fiddled with the controller and said it works fine. He left and it still didn't water according to the settings so he came out again (after the job was completed) and fiddled some more, saying again there was nothing wrong with the controller. He never gave me a receipt, so as the same problem kept occurring, I finally had to replace it. Because Pete never gave me a receipt (I suspect he used a controller he had sitting around, and not a new one for my job, however he told me it was "professional grade" and cost $300), I couldn't return it and had to spend more money on the new controller. Very irritating. Irrigation system and planting: I asked him to add on to the existing drip irrigation system and bring water to several fruit trees and numerous new shrubs I requested that he put in. However he installed 1 gal. drippers to everything, whether it was a large existing fruit tree or a new small shrub. Fruit trees require a lot more water...Pete told me he was an arborist so he should know the right amount of water fruit trees need. Now I'm having to switch out these drippers myself to something that provides adequate water. Again not something I should have to be doing. I requested all cascading rosemary shrubs in numerous locations. He installed half cascading rosemary and half something else (I don't know the name...he didn't provide any tags). My bad for not saying something at the time, as I thought the additional color might be pretty. Well, the other plants he selected COMPLETELY took over the area covering the slower growing cascading rosemary. Now I have to tear some of those plants out and put them elsewhere, so that I can see the plants I requested in the first place. Some of the new plants he put in began to die after a while so I looked a little closer to figure out why. Half the root system was above ground...the hole was not dug nearly deep enough! I tried to correct this but unfortunately the plants were too far gone so my effort was not in time. Finally, I asked Pete to shore up some fence posts that were lagging. It was a picket fence surrounding a small patch of my front yard. I asked him to go around and check each post. I am too trusting...I assumed he had done that. However, he only shored up 4 fence posts and not the posts on either side of the gate, the ones that needed attention the most. Overall, I am pretty unhappy with the job this company did for me. I read other reviews stating how detail oriented Pete was for them...He did not pay attention to the details of my landscaping project, and I'm not sure he dealt honorably with me about the controller problem. I would not recommend him/his company.

    This company needs to be stopped. I too am a victim of Petretti's crime. Very unprofessional and…read morethey abandoned our project. Project started 12/2020. If anyone who has left a review or plan to and would like to chat, please reach out to me. This is not ok and this company cannot continue to do this to people. If you are looking into a contractor, please read the reviews and DO NOT hire Petretti Landscaping and Pools. Not only did they abandon the project we hired them for, took our money and overlooked safety protocols. They do not follow what is outlined in the signed contract.

    I contacted Petretti Landscape and Pools on 5/7/21 to remodel our outdoor pool. I received an…read moreappointment for 7/28/21, at which appointment I discussed with the representative changes / upgrades for the pool. At the time I asked if the work could be completed by Thanksgiving (11/21) to which the answer was maybe. I received the designs on 8/13/21 and accepted the offer 8/14/21. On 8/20/21 I paid a deposit. On 8/31/21 I paid for engineering and permits. We didn't hear anything more from and called to follow up around mid-September asking when the work would start. The demolition started on 9/30/21, for 2 or 3 days. On 10/1/21 I paid for the demolition. Since then nothing more has happened. No one follows up to provide a status. I have emailed on numerous occasions. When I called and spoke to someone, I was told they are waiting for a permit. I followed up by email on 11/9/21 to which I received no answer. I texted the contact person a week later and received no answer. In my last email on 12/1/21, I asked for an estimated work date, in writing. I received an answer to call back. Voicemails never provide any information, just to call back. One rep emailed that he could not reach my phone. I emailed back and verified the number, but received no call or answer to my email. It appears to me they do not want to put anything in writing which makes me feel insecure about how serious they are about their agreements. On 1/6/22, I contacted the BBB indicating that I would like to know when and if they plan to complete the work. On 1/19/22 a Petretti rep emailed that "we will be having a plaster company out at your place to look at the pool to set a date to strip the plaster out." No dates or approximate time frame were provided. IDK
