They were amazing people. I love Janet Moyer. They were perfect from the beginning. They put in a bid for our backyard. They were just so professional and kind. We're a nonprofit organization and it's a small business. We were able to work out a lot of the payment struggles and their bid was very reasonable and they really went above and beyond our expectation. They came in under our budget. They just did an amazing job. Janet Moyer and her husband are great but their staff just are entirely amazing. They came out everyday and did the work and were just professional and on time. They didn't leave a mess.
Description of Work: Janet Moyer Landscaping did our whole backyard.

It went well from beginning to end. Janet and Michael are always on time to the minute. Their initial consultations helped us turn some rather nebulous ideas into concrete plans. They document every step so you always know what they're doing and what to expect. They know the many micro-climates of San Francisco and what plants will and won't work here. Beyond that, they are conscious of the need to conserve resources such as water and power. The equipment they recommend and install is top-of=the line and state of the art. Their crews are polite, hard-working and meticulous about what they do, including the clean-up. We were certainly a small project for them, but we never felt slighted because of it. Highly recommended.
Description of Work: Designed and built a new landscape for the front of our house. The work included building a wall, installing irrigation and low-voltage lighting, designing and implementing the landscaping plan.

I would not recommend Janet Moyer Landscaping at all. She is a rip off. She stole a $1000 deposit when we decided not to go forward with the project she would not give us our $1000 back. We paid her for the plans separately then we gave her a $1000 deposit for the project. When we decided not to go forward I sent her an email asking for my money back and she completely ignored it. I absolutely would not recommend her ever. We signed a contract, but the way she set it up we didn't ask a lot of questions, she told us we would have to pay for some of the work separately and we did. We wanted to make changes, which she was supposed to be able to do a whole complete set of plans if we wanted. She came up with a plan for the front and said if we didn't like it she would do a whole new set of plans. We just asked her to do a couple of revisions and she didn't modify the plans. I called her and asked her where the revisions were, she ignored my email. She was unresponsive to do the plans before the work was starting. So I got upset and I didn't go forward. We had given her $1000 down but I thought I had a reasonable expectation that if she didn't do the work we would get the money back and she completely blew us off. I just wrote it off. Everything was terrible. She had terrible communication. There isn't one thing I could say she did a good job on. Even the plans that she did, through someone else we ended up making more changes. Her business partner is slimy.
Description of Work: Janet Moyer Landscaping was supposed to redo our front yard.

Response from Janet Moyer Landscaping
Frankly, we’re perplexed. This review comes from a client we haven’t heard from in over three years. The last word from this client came in the following email, which we received after no communication from him for six months. The tone of the email doesn’t sound that he was unhappy. “From: ******* Sent: Friday, January 20, 2012 12:05 PM To: jmoyer@jmoyerlandscaping.com Subject: Re: garden Janet, I have completed the first two phases of the project and I anticipate that I will complete the remaining two phases myself. Jane and I wanted to thank both you and [member name removed] for the work that you did for us. We love the plans that you drew up and are pleased with the project so far. Since I will be finishing the work on the project myself, it is not necessary for you to hold our deposit for work to be done any longer. I would like you to send us a check for the deposit monies or run a credit back to the credit card which ever is easiest for you. Thanks again for your help and we are looking forward to working with you in the future. We are discussing what to do in the back and would like to tackle the backyard after we have completed the front. We hope you had a joyful Holiday Season. Sincerely, [member name removed]” Regarding the deposit, we completely adhere to the strict requirements and rules set forth by the California Contractors’ State Licensing Board (CSLB) which allows contractors to request a deposit. Since the client never requested us to perform the work covered by the deposit, and went to another source for the work, we were entitled to retain the deposit to cover the loss of work. In addition, we have specific language about responding to invoices which the client does not agree with: “If Client has any objection or problem with any billing or payment or if Client disputes any payment that JML contends is due, Client will raise the issue immediately in writing with JML. If JML receives no such written notice within five (5) business days that a charge or billing or payment request is disputed or objected to, Client will be deemed to have waived any objection to or dispute with the charge, billing or payment request.” While we have not heard from the client for three years, and find his comments to be inappropriate and incorrect, we’d be happy to provide him with $500 of work or services to assist him in his garden should he so choose.

They were very good and they are very professional. They are very careful with the paperwork. They didn't do a follow up when they were done. I have called them several times to get them to come out here to check everything.
Description of Work: They installed a drip irrigation that is monitored by satellite.

We had a space of about 300 square feet. They estimated the work to be done for $20,000. The only way to get any kind of break, was if we were willing to do some of the labor!! The end result, we found someone to do the exact same work for under $7000.00. Don't be swayed by fancy binders and paperwork, there are plenty of landscapers who will do a professional job and not deplete your pocketbook.
Description of Work: Beware, no free estimate, $100.00 for them to come to your house for an estimate. The design phase alone is $1000.00.

I initially consulted Janet Moyer Landscaping for ideas to stabilize a steep, sandy hillside that had been undermined during prior efforts to terrace. They came out and assured me that they could help in this situation. It wasn't easy; required some engineering, permits, concrete work, and moving a lot of sand. The easy part was landscape design, and installation. This was a tricky piece of work and I was quite anxious about the precarious state of the hillside. These folks are true professionals. They don't come cheap, but you get your money's worth. They and their subs come when scheduled, perform the work as described, and complete the job without delay. When there are problems and I had a couple, Michael is quick to address them with a minimum of fuss. In all, it was way more money than I anticipated, but the work was good and I'm eager to see the results when the landscaping matures.
