Great experience! Highly recommended!…read more I came to Yelp to get quotes for the Springtime turning on of my sprinkler system. Ted from Xtreme was one of the respondents. He quoted me a reasonable price and could accommodate me soon. Sam came to do the job. We put new batteries in the timer. But it didn't seem to be working properly. Sam said that not only was it not working properly, but that it wasn't an outdoor clock. Said we should replace it. Of course I was stressed at something not working and really stressed at the thought of what it would cost to replace. Sam looked at a price list from his supplier and said that a clock for 2 zones was only $125. Ok, not terrible. But how many hundreds and hundreds was the installation going to cost? He said "I came to get your system going for the season. I have to do whatever it takes to do that. There's no extra fee for that." I thought that I couldn't passably be hearing correctly. No extra cost? He and his assistant went and got the new timer and came back. But he said he wanted to mount it inside rather than where the old one was, outside my house. He didn't have a drill long enough to go through the wall to run the wire from the sprinkler system to the timer. So, came back after the weekend and did it. I did have to pay for the new timer and another small part that had burned out. But as far as labor, not a penny more than the original price to turn on the system! That is unheard-of these days! I'm so happy to have a new, reliable service and happy to recommend them.

Ted was honest and came and gave us an estimate that was fair and we will be using this company to…read moreinstall our sprinklers. I really like him. He's a super nice guy and so was his partner Sam.

Sometimes it's not fun to be right. I sent a request to…read moreseveral gardeners on Yelp. I outlined 3 things needed done. Just Clean Lots replied with a Robo response or Cut & Paste. Very generic "happy to help you with your garden related tasks". And "we must make an appointment". I didn't respond because I KNOW that the people who must appointments are always the WORST. They delay things forever. They tie up your whole day for nothing. And they charge way more! I like the companies that are a guy who has some other guys that work with him and they get the job done. After a few days, they reached out again. I replied and said that the robo reply wasn't good and that I'm not making an appt without knowing if they even do the tasks I needed done. I was assured that they could help with all 3. On Monday, they asked if they could come Tuesday of the following week. I said there was no way I could wait that long. Especially since there was so little change that there prices wouldn't be unreasonable. I need to know sooner rather than later if I need to move onto the next. I was talking with someone that I believe said she was the Operations Manager. Sigh... again, managers, having to inspect everything (rather than working from my description and the numerous pictures I supplied) and I told her it needed to be in a day or 2. She got back to me and proposed Thursday. That wasn't the day or 2 I wanted. But it was easier to accept than keep going back and forth. This was all on Yelp. So, I can't say if it was all one person or different people. I did get a message later saying that Wednesday would be possible. I said ok and said that anytime between 10AM and 3PM would be ok. Not that I like 5-hour windows. But again, to minimize the back and forth that would be necessary to fine tune a time. So, stayed available all day today. Made sure to be done with showering, etc before 10 so's to not be occupied if they came. 10AM came. 3PM came. Now, 5PM has come and gone and not only no show, but no contact. No request to reschedule. No apology for standing me up. Nothing. Part 2 - replying to Justin's comment You misunderstood. I don't mean that the estimate gets higher by being a week later. I mean that companies that make a trip over to spend time estimating charge more than companies that don't. They have to make up for the cost of the time of the person who is estimating rather than that person being on a job (whether it's gardening, painting, cleaning or any other work). What is referred to in your reply to my review as "building a relationship with the customer" is the exact opposite of what I want. I want the work done and not to be bothered. I shouldn't even have to be home. My gardener comes once a week and we see each other in person once a year (or less)! The best way to "build a relationship" with me is to accommodate my preferences as a customer. Not to force me to do things your way.

UPDATE: This guy has proceeded to call my husband numerous times while he is at church and sent a…read morenasty email after being told "do not contact us again." He is lazy, manipulative, a liar, and abusive. We will be seeking recourse at this point. We were quoted a price and were told hauling away was included, it was a small job, and could be done quickly. We were put off for a couple of days, then the guy was super late and told us that hauling away was NOT included in the price. The cleanup was so so but not as good as we were expecting. He bagged the waste so poorly that sanitation keeps leaving the bags and they are still out front more than two weeks later. As an update I've posted his response to my review, unabashedly calling my husband's faith into question. Stay away from this guy.

I highly recommend Marcos & Bruno to anyone looking to install kitchen backsplash or other tile…read morejob. I hired them for my kitchen backsplash and am thoroughly impressed with the results. From the first reachout, communication with Jessica at the front desk about a site visit was prompt and reliable. Note that there is a non-refundable $25 quote fee. Marcos stopped by and efficiently and professionally laid out the scope of work. I received the quote a few days later, which I felt was relatively reasonable. Bruno's communication about the job was always clear and prompt. Marcos and his colleague worked so professionally, diligently, and thoroughly, while completing the job quicker than anticipated. Their attention to detail and cleanliness made it a hassle-free experience for me. They were always on time and communicative. Marcos even re-caulked and sealed my kitchen countertops, going above and beyond. I never felt pushed or scammed into paying extra and it's clear M&B are a business of integrity and professionalism.
