The job was completed on time and to our satisfaction.
Description of Work: Our irrigation system needed to be replaced. After receiving bids from a number of different companies, we selected Desert Landscape Creations because we felt Dan was honest and upfront with us. We tweaked the contract a bit and set a date. Dan and his crew were on time and finished the job in a timely fashion replacing the old tube with pvc and drip feeders. He went over the entire system with us, including the control panel making sure everything worked. I was impressed with his professionalism.

We told and showed him what we wanted. He came back within a week with a written plan, the cost of our project with the itemized cost of each plant, rock, sand, dirt, and when he would start and the length of his work. His estimate and work were right on the money. Instead of a two day project, he finished it in one long day. He returned several times the next two months to check on his work and if we were satisfied. Beautiful work and an honest landscaper. George Marshall
Description of Work: We had mounds created with boulders and cactus planted. He did a super job and followed up every week or so to see how things were going. He returned 8 months later to replace a cactus that had died. Super Job!George

Desert Landscape Creations did exactly what they said that they were going to do for the price that they estimated and they finished the work in one day. The whole interaction was good. They were easy to work with, honest and good.

Set an appointment, Dan showed up on time and prepared to do the job based on the information in our phone call. Gave an estimate, I hired on the spot. He did the repairs, checked the systems, and left. I would absolutely use this service again. They are on time, professional, and proficient.
Description of Work: Repaired broken sprinkler head, adjusted sprinklers, and repaired leak in drip system.

Although they did what I asked for they did not do the job I expected. I would not use them again. One guy was on his cell for most of the time and the owner was going to leave and go to another job. I told him he had said he would be here for the entire job. They were anxious to leave and I had to ask them if they could do a better job "blowing out some of the landscaping" They did one small area and then they left.
Description of Work: Removed trees and bushes from front yard and planted one tree and one bush. After the trees were planted I asked if he guaranteed the tree and bush and he never answered my question but did say if I watered the item "right" there would be no problem. But when I asked if the tree was guaranteed again he did not answer.

Response from DESERT LANDSCAPE CREATIONS
I have a problem with this particular review dated August 8, 2009. We did work for said customer but he reviewed it on June 15, 2009 (the work was done that day) and gave us a positive report. I'm not sure if he wrote the second review for the incorrect company. He never expressed that he was unhappy with our work, as you can see by reading the first review. Too, in the second review the customer stated work was completed June 1, 2009 - we had not yet been to his property at that time and we have only been there once (mid-June 2009) so perhaps he confused us with someone else. Please look into this as we have had a great rating with Angie's List for several years and would like to maintain it. Thank you!

I arranged for the bricks and new yard rock. Dan arrived on time with his helper and worked long hours to get the job done, even working half a day on the 4th of July. He took great care to match up new tiles with existing, even though all we could find were slightly different in size. The new plants were carefully planted and have thrived. Everything went very well. The completed job is great.
Description of Work: Removed existing front yard rock cover, removed oleander hedge, built 42" high brick wall 43 feet long, supplied and planted trees, shrubs and small cacti, revised irrigation system to suit new vegetation, laid plastic and spread new gravel, laid Saltillo tile pavers to match up with existing tiles and increase front patio size.

Dan came out and did a preliminary estimate. We talked about what I needed, which was mainly removing all the dead plants, leveling the yard, planting some new bushes, putting in a drip system for those bushes, and laying down rock. There was some other odd work, like removing a satellite dish stand and a concrete slab. We wanted a walkway that ran all the way from the patio to the front gate. He suggested that we purchase the pavers for the walkway and he would pick them up for a small charge. Then his guys came out and did the work. They did a really nice job, they cleaned up everything. They generally kept things very clean and tidy throughout the 3 days they worked in my yard. I had gotten an estimate from another company and they would have charged over $1500 more than DLC.
Description of Work: DLC redid my whole backyard. They cleared the current yard (which was a mess) and redid part of the irrigation system, planted some bushes, laid a walkway, and laid down rock. It went from looking a jumbled up mess to looking clean and pretty.

Absolutely delightful - Dan ran the operation himself, recommended the right materials for the job, ordered the correct amounts in all cases, and did a fabulous job! After our original estimate we added several items, and Dan actually came in below the estimates! He had to cope with a rare 3/4-inch rain in the middle of the job and worked around it very well. I would (and WILL) hire him again for future investment properties and our home - plus I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Description of Work: Dan and his crew prepared the front 1/3 acre yard and circular drive and installed two types of landscape rock. They also poured cement on a patio area plus a curb and additional landscape rock on other areas.

I would highly recommend Desert Landscape Creations. I appreciated the fact that I was able to work with Dan throughout the entire process, he did the estimating and installing. They worked hard to do the job right. The curbing accidentally got damaged and Dan made sure that it was fixed immediately. He also returned promptly to add another valve and re-adjust our sprinklers when we discovered some areas of our lawn were not getting watered. We really appreciated this attention to detail and the incredible customer service we received. Another thing, they are an extremely responsive company. They return calls promptly and are willing to help with any questions. The end product looks incredible and is even better than we imagined. We are extremely satisfied. DLC is a reliable, upstanding, professional company that I trust and will definitely use again in the future!
Description of Work: DLC installed a sprinkler and drip system (2 valve) in our backyard, laid sod and installed curbing.

Dan listened to our needs and came up with a design that's functional for us, offering great suggestions along the way. The result is so terrific! We have a wonderful pleasant retreat...we're now enjoying using our backyard, whereas before it was just a pass-through to get in the door. Dan is so pleasant to work with, and very knowledgeable. I found him here at Angie's List, and highly recommend him to anyone who wants to totally re-do or just jazz up their existing landscape design. See our before and after pics below.
Description of Work: Dan and team completely reconstructed the broken down landscaping in our backyard and built a garden area surrounded by a 15' semicircular sitting wall that matched our house, and a large brick patio, re-did our brick walkway from front to back, installed a 24'' box palo verde in the middle of the patio, sod in the back, sprinkler system to accommodate it all, and 5 built-in landscape lights. Also painted a long section of wall an accent color, which really sets off the new brick patio area. Added a brick walkway next to the driveway.

Customer service was great; he had to order lights, but we didn't have to make any calls to get the lights installed after the rest of job was complete- he took care of it.

DAN AND HIS CREW PERFORMED THE JOB VERY WELL. WE LIKED HIS INITIAL DESIGN AFTER DISCUSSING WITH US OUR NEEDS AND PLANTS WE LIKED. HE PRESENTED THE DRAWING AND GAVE US ALL THE INFORMATION NEEDED TO SUBMIT TO THE HOMEOWNERS' ASSOCIATION AND GET PERMITS FROM THE CITY. HIS CREW WAS ON SCHEDULE... AND UNDER BUDGET (DUE TO LESS ROCK NEEDED THAN ORIGINALLY ESTIMATED). HE CLEANED UP THE AREA EACH DAY SO THERE WAS NO DIRT OR ROCKS IN THE STREET OR SIDEWALK. I WOULD USE HIM AGAIN IN FUTURE JOBS.
