I am adjusting my comments but not my rating. At the very least, I have worked through some issues with Al. However, and per Melissa C's review, if you use their services, MAKE SURE you review the proposal very carefully. $55/hour and 39 hours to do a cleanup on a postage stamp of a lot with a pool, is still not right. My mother was asked to sign a contract with no $ on it. Shame on her for signing but shame on Al's for not walking through the work and time "needed". With that said, I'm sure their work is exceptional. It better be based on their expense.

The team did an outstanding job landscaping and installing my sprinkler system. They operate a business that stands behind their product and work; as a result, I felt their pricing was fair as they stood behind their work as they are NOT "fly by night" contractors. The facility is 6+ acres with hundreds of different plants/flowers to choose from. I didn't know that they are also a wholesale distribution center of plant material to general contractors and smaller landscapers; however, they do sell direct to the public as well! I was able to find some amazing deals on my plant

Beware of being overcharged a service fee AND labor fees per the 15 minutes for TWO workers for simple repairs and time spent discussing sprinkler system. My husband was gullible enough to sign a work order that charged us over $350 for an hour of "work" of which only 20 minutes was spent actually working while the rest was talking.
