Overall, hands down AMAZING experience!…read more We had just an estimate done on a house my husband and I were interested in buying and holy red flags! Sam was able to explain everything he was seeing in not only a professional manner, but also layman's terms for us to understand. He not only pointed out all the issues to us and how they were occurring, BUT he also took the time to fully explain what exactly was going on, how to properly fix the issue, and what to look out for in future potential houses. He checked in multiple times throughout our 2 hour estimate to ensure we fully understood what he was explaining and allowed us to ask any questions we had without judgement or belittlement. The house we were interested in buying had major moisture issues in the crawl space discovered on home inspection. We had the sellers "fix" the problem hoping they would properly fix it in good faith. When we reinspected, we noticed that the issue was still occurring and that's when I decided it was time to pull our own specialist in because things just weren't adding up. We called him numerous times after the fact with further questions and he answered every time with exquisite professionalism and without hesitation. He went above and beyond and checked in with us a few times via phone call after our meeting with him to further ensure our understanding and instructed us to call him anytime if we had further questions. He is an incredibly valuable resource on what would have been a VERY bad real-estate investment. If you are buying a house and have questions, or if things just aren't adding up DO NOT hesitate to have a professional come in on your behalf. Hands down it will pay itself off in either peace of mind or avoidance of a major financial catastrophe. At the time of our estimate, it was only $100 for him to come out and take a look (AND if you go with him for your contracting needs, that $100 rolls right into the repairs). I personally feel like we made out like bandits for his his time and expertise as I would have happily paid more after the fact. We will pay him $100 ANY time to come take a peak and will HAPPILY use him for ALL our future needs. TAKE MY MONEY! Otherwise we would have been $117k++ in the hole had we gone through with the real-estate deal. If you are looking for, or in need of an actual decent, creditable contractor WITH OUT the BS Sam is your guy! We will certainly call him every time with questions on our next future investment OR with ANY remodels we may have with our future dream home.

My wife and I solicited quotes from 3 other landscaping companies before settling on Faltz…read moreLandscaping. The 3 others met us at our home and listened to our ideas and took measurements of the areas to be landscaped. Within a week we received quotes from two of the other companies that just parroted back our ideas without any design drawings or detail. The third company jerked us around for 3 additional weeks before telling us they were too busy and gave us a baseless and wildly expensive "estimate" for next year. In contrast, Josie Blumenthal from Faltz came to our house twice to sketch the area, take dimensions and develop our design ideas. On the 2nd trip she took aerial photos with a drone and prepared a concept design based upon our ideas. At our third meeting, Ben Brown, Faltz Landscape Architect, who was mentoring Josie, joined the Team and proposed some new design concepts that we liked a lot. We signed a contract and within a week the Faltz crew was on site. The 3-man crew were experienced, polite and professional. Most of the time while the work was in progress, either Josie, Ben or both were on site, assuring the work was in conformance with the plan. At the end of every workday, the crew cleaned our yard and driveway. Three days later the work was complete. The final product far exceeded our expectations, and we are very happy with the entire Faltz Team, especially Ben and Josie. We felt that Faltz provided a superior product and good value. We'd highly recommend Faltz for your landscape needs.

She took notes and gave me an email to contact. I emailed again. No response. I sent a letter to the owner complaining of the lack of response to 4 different attempts to request service and questioning how they stay in business. He sent his son to my house the next day. The son took notes and left. He never sent an estimate. They obviously don't want my business, and I absolutely don't recommend them. If I could give no stars I would.
