I had them out to repair a sprinkler head mid-May. Hannah said that they now do landscaping, so I had her do a quote for landscaping. It took several weeks to get the quote. When they finally came out, the quote went up by $750. I said fine and paid it, but the work still wasn't completed. They said their "supplier" ran out of the materials. I later found out that the materials are stocked every day at any Lowe's. Texted several times to get the work completed, and the new quote has almost doubled. Still can't get them to come out and finish the job or even reply to texts. Sad that the company is being run this way after James' passing. He was a great dude and super reliable. Do not use this company now. They have no idea how to bid a job, run a business or deal with customers--totally unreliable, unprofessional, and unresponsive.

For the past two years, we've had nasty flash floods that have left us collectively about $30,000…read morein debt, even with flood insurance. The house is built on a hill, and when a heavy rain hits us after a dry spell, bad things happen. When the last payout finally came in, we'd planned to earmark a big chunk for fixing the drainage once and for all. Enter Keep Austin Landscaped. Even though our house is small and they usually don't do such small jobs, they came up with a great plan to reroute the water from uphill and guide it around our house to prevent flooding. Initially they suggested an inexpensive galvanized wire and rock wall to keep the water from flowing into our house, but later decided that a better, solid concrete retaining wall would do the job better - - for just the same price. And then, of course, COVID happened. Nevertheless, the KAL team was still ready to work with us as long as we gave the workers their distance, which of course was only fair. I really appreciated them coming out and risking getting sick to do that work, especially when we were really scared that any time now we might flood again. Our uphill neighbors initially agreed to allow us to install a French drain on their property to allow water to drain into the alley behind our houses instead of into our house, but then reneged for reasons we still don't understand. We offered to adjust planning to take any specific concerns into account or seek mediation, but they insisted that we not do anything on their side of the hill. Of course it's difficult to route water away from a house down hill if you can't do anything before the water gets there! The nice folks at KAL tried several times to speak to my neighbors in both English and Spanish on our behalf, and in the end our neighbors allowed them to complete the plan by extending gravel drainage along the shared fence. We've just had the first heavy rain after a dry spell since they've been out here, and not a hint of flooding. Working with them has been an absolute joy, and we heartily recommend them for anyone with a landscaping or drainage issue.

I have been using Drippin' Irrigation for my property in the Dripping Springs area since 2021, and…read morethey continue to prove why they are the best in the Hill Country. Most recently, I had a complex situation following a service call in May. Due to some poor workmanship from a previous technician and a transition in tenancy at my property, the system was left with several non-functioning zones and mechanical issues that went unnoticed until I returned to manage the property myself this October. When I reached out to explain the situation, Carl personally came out to handle the follow-up. He spent nearly two hours meticulously inspecting every single zone and head. He was incredibly honest and direct--starting the conversation by apologizing and acknowledging that the previous technician's work had simply failed. Carl didn't just fix the immediate issues in Zones 1, 3, and 4; he ensured the entire system was back in top working condition. He also shared very useful, straightforward observations and recommendations for the system's long-term health. It is rare to find a family-owned business with this much integrity. If you want an irrigation team that is honest, stands behind their warranty, and truly knows their craft, Carl and Stacey are the ones to call. Highly recommended!

TERRIBLE customer service. I have never been spoken to by someone who claimed by the the owner of…read morethe company! This company installed my Rachio sprinkler system back in 2023 which cost me over $1000 and have since come out twice to do repairs on my sprinkler heads due to an armadillo being in the yard. But when they last came out to fix a sprinkler head that was popped up they didn't run a full diagnostic on my entire system and wanted to charge me another labor fee of $175 / hour. I got a "discount" at $125 / hour because the technician was there for 14 minutes (by my ring doorbell calculations) but the "owner" went back and forth with me on the minutes of which he said the service took place. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND this company to anyone and I am telling all the people who referred me to switch companies. Bad business.

I seldom write reviews because they are subject to interpretation from one point of view, but I…read morecould not disregard the terrible experience I had with this company. The owner came to my property a few months back to look at the job site, look at the terrain, and check how dense the trees were. We discussed what work I needed. The owner walked through the property, he saw firsthand that the terrain was sandy loam and loose terrain. He confidently stated he could get the job done. I showed him where I needed the trees piled in the rear of the property for burning, for safety reasons. We talked for a while, and he discussed all the projects he's worked on, overall I was impressed, and liked the fact that his company Cowboy Clearing had positive reviews and a good business rating. So we agree to start with two days of clearing and go from there. We received an estimate for two days of work to clear, clean, level grade, and pile up debris. I signed the invoice; we accepted the terms that required 1/2 of the price at the time the machines were onsite on day one. Over a month went by we had several scheduling delays part due to weather other parts due to his schedule being full. We had given up. When Clayton the owner reach back out to me at the beginning of this month, to see if we still had an interest, I mentioned that we still needed the work performed, but had received bids lower for the same scope of work. I asked could he either meet that lower pricing or provide a commitment of how many acres his company could get cleared in 2 full days. He assured me, via text that his company and the dozer he would bring out could easily clear four plus acres. On day one, the worker ran into problems immediately, the terrain was moist, and it was raining periodically, and he continued to run the dozer and got stuck in the mud. I went to inspect the job site that evening less than a half an acre had been cleared there were huge dozer ruts everywhere, and trees ripped out that were supposed to stay, large roots all over. The next morning I went, the worker had informed me he had gotten stuck and that he tried another way to get to the rear of the property but was unable to because the ground was wet. He stated he still owed us some working hours because of the time stuck in the mud and would try to see how much he could get done. By the end of the day, I received a call from the owner asking if I wanted to add another day because his employee was finishing up. I was excited thinking that I would come out to see 4 acres cleared, clean, and graded. Instead barely over 1 acre had been removed, still, huge dozer ruts everywhere and trees ripped out that were supposed to stay, large roots all over sprouting from the ground. So I ask Clayton to meet me on site, and we agreed to meet him the next morning to discuss a resolution. When we arrived the following morning, Clayton seemed annoyed to be there, was immediately on the defensive. I said this is not 4 acres. I stated to him that he had assured me twice via text messages that he could clear, clean, and level grade for the price. He insisted, that I was to blame because I had told his employee to set up the burn pile in the back and that our sandy terrain was too difficult- that I had agreed to 16 hours of work, and that he could give me five free hours, but that all. If I wanted 4 acres cleared, I had to either agree for him to run his dozer full-blown and destroy my property or pay him for extra days. He stated that the scope of the work was more details and that he would not invest more time, because he had already lost money bring his machine out unless we paid more money. I could not believe it, I was so angry but mostly disappointed that he cared very little about his commitment to us but instead kept stating over and over that he was a professional and raising his voice that I wasn't listening to him. Ultimately, he became angry during our discussion when I used an analogy to help him understand our point of view as a customer; he instructed his worker to pack up the machine and told me to "eat the $1000" still unpaid. He kept bringing up his cost to run the project, instead of putting himself in our shoes. His attitude and inability to find a compromise proved that he is not experienced in business or running one. So BEWARE if you are considering dealing with this gentleman and his company, he is unprofessional when dealing with customer situation or stress. Now we are left with a massive mess of debris everywhere, roots up, giant dozer ruts throughout our property and a huge burn pile that we can't burn because it is too close to other trees.
