It went really well. They showed up in the morning and worked into the night to make sure it was all done in one day. They were very professional and explained everything they had done in detail. They even gave me tips on landscaping materials and the right sod to use in the future for the most beautiful lawn. I don't even have to think about my sprinklers because everything was taken care of by them. I plan on calling them back for an estimate to re-sod the whole yard.
Description of Work: My sprinklers needed a major overhaul and they came out and told me exactly what I needed to do. Now there is not a section of my yard that is not getting water. They fixed lines, added new heads and fixed my pump so that i have the front yard getting watered first for ultimate pressure and then it switches to the back yard. It only turns on during approved county days.

One man came out to do the job. It took him ten hours to do the job but you wouldn't even know that a tree stood there. He ground the stump completely out of the ground and cleaned up the mess. I am very pleased with the work completed because he did the job by himself. He was supposed to have help but they couldn't get out to help due to another job. I would recommend this company to others.

He was too busy talking to somebody else on his cell phone to really spend much time talking with me. I was a bit disappointed by that. He basically just walked around the house while on his phone and didn’t really do too much. He didn’t really tell me anything.

Response from Greenstar Landscaping & Irrigation
[member name removed] purchased an Angie's List Big Deal sprinkler tune-up and inspection for $29. I called her and scheduled an appointment. Prior to my inspection, I spoke with her to find out her exact needs and what problems she was having with her irrigation system. She indicated that the system hadn't run in 4+ years and she wanted to make minor repairs to have it work in one particular zone only. She anticipated selling the house soon and did not want to make a major investment in repairing the system properly, noting that she wanted to leave that problem for the next owner. This conversation/consultation took about 10 minutes then I started my detailed inspection/diagnostic of the system. I remember this client/yard quite well. Although she lived in a beautiful house in Coral Gables, parts of the yard had not been maintained in years, especially the area I had to go through multiple times to get to the irrigation timer. I had no choice but to walk through knee high weeds, laced with thorns. As I made my way to the timer I nearly broke my leg falling into a hole over 3 feet deep. When I mentioned it to her afterward she said "oh yeah, by the way you need to be careful". The irrigation timer was over 20 years old and did not work properly. I was able to bypass it and prime the system in order to check for leaks and breaks in the lines. I spent 30+ minutes inspecting the system and getting drenched by all the breaks in the pipes. Due to the numerous breaks, cut electrical lines, old electrical valves and a timer that did not work properly, I advised her that all I could do is give her an estimate on replacing the entire system. She was upset about that and apparently thought I could fix the entire zone for $29. And yes, at times during my inspection I was on the phone with my irrigation technician, consulting him about this job. I am sorry that [member name removed] feels this way but she definitely got her money’s worth given that I spent over a half hour there inspecting, provided her my professional opinion regarding her options with the system and then spent another half hour pulling thorns off my clothing. I feel she is only writing this harsh review to damage my reputation with potential Angie's list clients. My work and reputation speaks for itself, especially when you read through all the wonderful reviews and sees all the As on Angie's List.

The owner Peter was very responsive to my request for an estimate (unlike a couple of of the other tree trimming companies that received high ratings on Angie's list) and performed the requested work in a timely and profession matter for what I thought was a very reasonable price. Bottom line is that I would definitely use this company again.

Peter Masi had his technician upgrade my sprinkler system, running a line and putting in one additional head, and shutting off another line. He replaced sprinkler heads and made adjustments to the system then reset my control box. The technician was knowledgeable and helpful. Grass removed for the new line was carefully cut then replaced. All work was neat and well done. A minor glitch with one sprinkler head that I discovered after he left was fixed the next day. Very satisfactory service! I would call this company again. He also cut a huge tree limb from a neighbor's tree that would have been a threat in the event of a hurricane. He had all the necessary equipment including a lift. Limbs were cut up an taken away. The area was left clean and neat. Again, I was pleased with the service.

The owner came out and marked the sprinkler that needed to be fixed and or adjusted. I think there were about a total fo 4 or 5 that he marked for repair. The same day my neighbor called to find out about the sprinker company. When the people arrived in a few days to to do the work, I noticed another 4 items that needed attention. They called the owner and he told them to carge an additional $ 150.00. I gave the owner a check for $ 60.00 when he was here and a credit card for the additonal $150.00. He called him and he came and gave him quote and they did the work for both of us on the same day. I think this company is too expensive for what they did. I have used a previous company on Angie's list and I was very satified with them but they were in Broward so I thought I would try someone new. A mistake.

I called up the company and they came within a day to provide the estimate. At first I was very concerned with the price since it was more than double what I normally pay but when the owner described the work that would be done and the amount of time they would spend I felt it was worth giving this company a try. They came out a few days later and spent the whole day trimming the tree. They had all the proper equipment to do the job and took the entire day to make sure that the job was done right. In addition to trimming back the tree, they also removed deadwood from the tree and made sure to clean up the area. I am very satisfied with the job they did.

Peter and his crew came and fertilized my lawn, palms and ornamentals. Peter pointed out some nutritional deficiencies in the palms and also applied extra nutrients as needed. They came on time as promised and completed the work as described. The crew was friendly and knowledgable. The price seemed good for the amount of work and materials involved. I have used Greenstar before for tree work, irrigation work and landscaping and was very satisfied. The fertilizing is one more thing I am glad they can do for me. I plan to schedule them to do fertilizing on a regular basis.

After reading positive reviews from others on Angie's List about this provider, I decided to contact Greenstar. Another advantage is that they are located in my neighborhood. Owner Peter Masi returned my call quickly and came right out to inspect the property. He emailed me a reasonably detailed estimate within 24 hours, and was professional and pleasant in answering my questions. My sprinkler system was quite old, with many broken sprinkler heads, and an antiquated design, so a major overhaul was needed. Employees Robert and Will worked on my sprinkler system for two days straight, replacing all the sprinkler heads, repairing lines as needed, and performing major re-routing of the back yard sprinkler lines for a more efficient design. They were really pleasant and great about explaining what they were doing, and Peter was in regular communication with his two employees. Later, it turned out that my ancient sprinkler timer wasn't quite up to snuff, so that was replaced as well. I was pleased enough that I have already recommended this company to two friends of mine, so that speaks for itself. Peter has also given me quotes on some landscaping and re-sodding work, and I may very well use him again in the near future, as my budget permits!

Wonderful experience. Peter returned my initial call promptly, came over for an estimate and after approval, began work within a couple weeks. They worked every day, including Saturdays, throughout the project until completion, with Peter supervising the work at all times. They left the house cleaned up every night so we never felt like we were in a construction zone. Although it turned out that the work was more labor intensive than originally budgeted, Peter never asked for additional money. It truly looks like a painting now in our backyard. Absolutely beautiful. Very honest and trustworthy service. My wife and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Description of Work: Peter and his team completely redesigned the back of our new home, removing old trees and piles of pebbled rock that the previous owner had never bothered to clean up. They installed new hedge plantings, several palms and sod around the perimeter of the house.

Peter, the owner, is very nice and easy to talk with. He performed the services as requested in a timely fashion and at a reasonable price. Some additional work needs to be done in the future, and he did not try to 'push' it, he gave options and in the end recommended that the additional work be done later. I respected this advice as opposed to someone trying to just sell you their services.

I selected this company from Angie's List based on its proximity to my property. I was leaving town and needed the installation done before I left. The owner called me immediately, met with me, suggested the appropriate plants, described the installation, showed up when promised, closely supervised everything, insisted on the best quality plants and the installation itself, and took a personal interest in every aspect of the project. It looks great and I'm very pleased.

I have used Greenstar Landscaping previously for landscape and sprinkler system maintenance. I noticed that my sprinkler system was not working and called Peter to check it out. He came out promptly to inspect and diagnose the problem. It turned out the the original pump had gone bad. He gave me a price and I told him to go ahead with the repair. At the same time I asked him to install the softener system that we had previously discussed. They arrived within a day to start the work. While fixing the pump his foreman mentioned that it would be a good idea to replace the well head at the same time. The additional expense was minimal since they were already onsite. They completed the work quickly and efficiently. The crew used a rust remover product and power washer to remove what they could of the iron rust stains on the house and walkways. They also left me extra bottles of the cleaner for later use. Peter walked me throught the use and maintenance of the softener system. He also left me extra bottles of the additive. As usual, it was a very professional and courteous experience.
Description of Work: Replace existing sprinkler system pump which failed. Replace well head and attachments to pump system. Install new water softener system to sprinkler system to alleviate rust buildup from well water.

As always, Peter's crew did an excellent job. they were prompt, courteous and efficient. A lot of work was completed in a few days. The property looked great upon completion. Peter even noted that there was an issue with one side of our hedge due to the white fly issue. He contacted our lawn pest service and had them come out and re-spray.

They did a great job. The first time I called them was when my irrigation system was not working. There was something wrong with the pump. The previous company did a really bad job. I figured out that they wired the pump wrongly. The irrigation system was not watering the plants in some areas of the lawn and it was watering the sidewalk or the areas that were not supposed to be watered. So Greenstar replaced everything, and they fixed everything. They corrected everything. They moved everything around, because my irrigation system was not placed properly. They replaced the pipes and all the heads. Now it is working perfectly. They are very good. They know what they are doing. I like them and I will hire them again if I need some work done in lawn irrigation.
