Before I hired Skip's Sprinklers, my lawn looked great. Yes, I had a few sprinkler heads that…read moreneeded replacing and I thought, maybe I should hire someone to do that. Somehow, they found 19 sprinkler heads that needed replacement (that's half of all the sprinkler heads that I have), then they quoted me $500 - $600. I agreed and provided them with some brand new heads that I had. They said all of my sprinkler heads, purchased from Home Depot, were faulty so they had to use their own. I offered to pay when the work was done, and they said "no, they will send you an invoice". When the invoice arrived, it was for nearly $1,000, nowhere near the quote I had received before the work began (can yiuy say rip off?). Here's the worst part, the sprinkler heads weren't aimed properly and I had 3 areas of grass that died. Guess what happened next, I refused to pay the invoice unless they fixed the problems and instead of fixing the issues, they sued me. Do business with Skip's at your own peril, or take their advice from the name of their website, just "Skipit".

Excellent company! Skip's designed and installed a great irrigation system, and has serviced it…read morefor many years. Quality products and professional staff at a great value.

My carpets had heavy pet wear from the previous owner. Jeff came out on time, was very professional…read moreand did an amazing job. The carpets were so clean that it felt like a whole new home. I opted for the additional pet cleaning but he made sure to walk me through why it was necessary. The black light flashlight was a really nice touch. It's been over a week now and I could not be happier. You get what you pay for. Most of the time when you opt for the cheaper option, you pay more in the end. That's why you should get Jeff to come out and do it right the first and only time.

I've always been a fan of the outdoors and especially doing yard work. I remember trying to mow the…read morelawn as short as I could when I was growing up. Not so I wouldn't have to do it again soon but because I wanted the lawn to look like a golf green. After being scolded a few times by my parents I stopped trying to make our lawn look like a golf green or the outfield grass at a baseball field, and mowed it properly. As I grew up and eventually found my own home, that same passion continued. I like having our yard look nice. While we enjoy a variety of outdoor type stores, we have become fans of Zywiec's. Zywiec's is a family owned landscape and garden center located right off of Hwy 61 in Cottage Grove. We always try to support local establishments and love family owned placed. Zywiec's has been in business for over 30 years. They have all the usual products that you would need for landscaping and gardening. They also have hayrides, a corn maze and other activities. Their prices are very reasonable and we feel on some items they are almost underpriced. We have purchased mulch, rocks, bricks and grass seed to name a few items. Their service has always been fast and friendly. The hardest thing might just be trying to pronounce their name correctly. For some reason I just call them "Zoiks" from Scooby Doo. We've been here several times and we'll sure be back again soon.
