Peter, the owner of Greenstar, was very professional. He arrived on time and provided me with an excellent plan for the tune up of my existing irrigation system. The plan improved coverage of the lawn and shrubs, and reduced wasted watering of road/sidewalk/driveway. However, the job took longer than anticipated because his crew did not follow his plan exactly and in one instance hooked up to a non-operating water line. However, Peter responded and agreed to correct the problem. The issue was finally corrected one week later. Approximately one month after the upgrade. I experienced additional problems with the sprinkler system. As a result we have water restrictions in our area. My grass started to die as the sprinkler system was not covering the entire lawn. I contacted them via email, provided pictures and requested repair services as soon as possible. He advised that he would get to me in 7-10 days when they were back in my area. This is inadequate service for a system that is less than 90 days old.

Peter was thorough and knowledgeable and he checked all the sprinkler zones and provided an estimate to repair and/or relocate a few heads. The price was relatively high for the scope of work, but not unconscionable..

I am very happy with the work done. The owner, Mr. Masi, came out promptly to give me an estimate for the pump replacement. His crew was here the next day and they replaced the pump, found the well and replaced the well head.. They also installed a timer and fixed the broken pipes.Some of the work was not included in the original estimate but was done gratis. After the pump was working it was obvious that many sprinkler heads needed to be replaced and lines flushed. This was an added expense, but was expected. As I said, I was very happy with the work, which was pricey but worth the cost, and with the communication with Mr. Masi. I also was very happy with his crew. They were happy to explain what they were doing and how to run the new system. They were prompt and did the job quickly and neatly. I will be contacting them again.
Description of Work: Needed to replace an old pump, which had stopped working after about 40 years. Also needed to have two breaks in the sprinkler line repaired and multiple sprinkler heads replaced.

Great! The grass is looking better already and the sprinklers are functioning better than they have in years. Peter arrived promptly after our service request and provided expert and friendly service. The irrigation technician performed all of the necessary repairs to our satisfaction. Definitely we will be using Greenstar Landscaping again and plan to get on the routine maintenance plan too.

Very satisfied. Peter is responsive, punctual and does quality work. We needed our yard re-landscaped, sodded and irrigation system re-aligned for a new pool. Peter worked with us, and provided many options for our landscaping. Prior to starting, he was at our home 4 times to make sure we were happy with the design plan. Everything we needed that outlined was completed. He was on site supervising and working with his team and has followed-up after installation.

Immediately upon arriving before even checking the system, he made sure to tell me the poor job that had been done only a year ago. There was no tuneup as advertised. When I asked if he would provide me with a written estimate he stated he would email it. He never did. I recently hired a licensed company referred by HomeAdvisers who provided me with a written estimate identifying the same work verbally identified by Greenstar but for $360. A third estimate was for about the same amount. I'm very dissapointed with GreenStar's professionalism.
Description of Work: Very misleading advertising of "$32 irrigation tune-up and diagnostic for your lawn and garden (for up to 8 zones)". I was expecting a basic tuneup and not to be told the poor job that was previously done and that it would cost $1200 to have a good job done and $2000 for a better job. I only needed to have some sprinkler heads adjusted and 3 tall sprinklers changed to ingrown for very small area.

Response from Greenstar Landscaping & Irrigation
I sincerely apologize if your expectations exceeded the clearly written terms and services offered on Angie's List. Greenstar Landscaping and Angie's List have collaborated and jointly spent a lot of time and effort in designing and drafting the Big Deal in such a way that it is easy to read and easily understood. It is our policy that after an Angie's List member purchases an irrigation tune-up and diagnostic, this service is performed by the owner, who is a licensed irrigation contractor. A thorough inspection/analysis and diagnostic is performed in order to professionally determine exactly what needs to be done, and then we offer the customer a free estimate. This actually saves the customer time and money, because more often than not, there is more work that needs to be done than they realize and/or the problem was diagnosed incorrectly. In this particular situation, this service was professionally performed. I apologize if I offended you by pointing out all of the deficiencies in your irrigation system. However, isn't that what you are paying me for? Prior to turning the system on, this customer had many concerns. She had indicated to me that she recently, within the last year or so, had the system installed. Prior to turning the system on, I did a visual inspection and was quite alarmed to see how shoddy and incomplete the job was. Pop ups are part of an in-ground irrigation or sprinkler system that, when the water is turned on in the system, it pops up and shoots water. The majority of all the 12" pop ups were installed above ground and [Member Information Removed]% of the 4" pop ups were installed improperly and were knocked over on their sides. Another concern that the customer had was the excess water hitting her wooden fence. She thought this was as easy as an adjustment, but I explained to her that they had installed the wrong nozzle size. Another complaint was that they combined rotors and pop ups on the same zone. Since rotors take 3 times longer to water the same area as a fixed nozzle, your choices are either over-watering or under-watering, unless you remove all of the rotors and install fixed nozzles. A fixed nozzle is a type of sprinkler head that delivers uniform distribution from all sides. One of the other issues is that the timer was malfunctioning and was watering every day, even though it was programmed properly. This timer had to be replaced. This customer had also bought one of these new Wi-Fi timers that are seen online and she was very upset and disappointed when I explained to her that this would not work with her existing system. I also cleaned her inline filter, which appeared to not have been cleaned for quite some time. I explained to her that if this is not cleaned on a regular basis, eventually it will block the water from flowing through and she could very easily blow her pump. Between the irrigation tune-up and diagnostic, testing the timer, and doing a complete evaluation, I spent over an hour with this customer. Where else can you get this level of expertise and knowledge from a licensed irrigation contractor and spend only $32? There is no way that everything that needed to be repaired was repaired and that all of her issues were addressed for only $360. In most cases, I do not offer band-aids. I offer real solutions to my customers at an extremely fair and reasonable rate, considering my level of expertise and being a fully licensed and insured company. I truly apologize that we were not able to do business together. However, if I can ever be of service to you now or in the future, please feel free to call us. Thank you for your time and input.

Everything went fine. They showed up as scheduled and made the repairs that were needed. They left the work area clean and packed the new trench with white sand to bury the new pipe.
Description of Work: They repaired my sprinkler system. A pipe broke and a few sprinkler heads needed replacement. They dug a new trench and buried the new pipe after connecting it. The old pipe had been pushed up by tree roots and broke. The new sprinkler heads work much better than the old ones.

Good, but expensive. He basically won't touch a house unless he can bill you a $1000. I've had him clean out the yard and do some landscaping before. I just know he won't touch me for less than a $1000. Even if I have less work to do, he'll find more work to do. He does do a good job, but he's always tries to sell you landscaping you don't need, because I guess that's where his profit margin is. I don't plan on using Peter again, just because he's too expensive. But, if he says he's going to do the job, he does the job. He does it well. He's just expensive. I usually wait until things are seriously overgrown because I know he's going to charge me $1000 and things grow fast in Florida. He's good with responsiveness. There's a little bit of a personality conflict between the two of us. I've had him out several times and he did my next door neighbor. I don't know how to describe it. He has a tiny bit of an attitude, but you find that a lot in this neighborhood, if you live in this neighborhood, especially if you have a house on the water, you just know they're going to take advantage of it and you've got to be ready for it. I found somebody else to do the work and after fourteen years of a beautiful lawn, I have a half-eaten lawn with some kind of a bug. That wouldn't have happened with Peter. I don't know what to do now. I would consider using him again. He does a good job with irrigation, too.

I've been a customer of Greenstar for several years and this was one of many services that I received, this time to repair a leak in one of our two sprinkler zones. While the work on this (and previous jobs) was prompt and effective, I discontinued working with this company during the course of this job and only paid for the initial investigation of the leak location. The reason for this decision was that I am fed up with the poor communications I've had with the business' owner and his repeated irresponsibility about giving me an estimate - or giving me time to review an estimate - before beginning work. Confirming my impression, his employees also openly gripe and grumble about him without a word from me. He is gruff and unpleasant to work with (or for, I imagine) and the time has come to look elsewhere for irrigation services. I'm sure I can do better. I'm changing my previous overall A rating to B, with a C for Professionalism.
Description of Work: Sprinkler system leak repair (investigation only)
Owner Peter Masi and his team were extremely professional, punctual and friendly to work with. Throughout the process, Peter was full of wonderful ideas, quick to be available and always on time with his services. My husband and I were very impressed by not only his work demeanor, but by the beautiful final product outside of our house! We started with no sprinklers and an uneven, dead lawn without any greenery. After a seamless process, we are now happy to call our house a home. It is filled with tropical plants, colorful flowers and luscious green grass thanks to Peter's expertise and a wonderful new irrigation system. Peter and his team worked with us to help us attain exactly what we wanted within our budget and within a short, efficient time frame. He even went as far as to recommend other vendors who can help us continue to maintain our lawn, as well as check on our yard over a month after the project has been completed. We would recommend Greenstar Landscaping to anyone who wants a beautiful yard with great customer service!

Cannot speak highly enough about this company. I called on a Monday. Peter came by the next day to review the system and make recommendations. By that evening, he had 2 men flagging and removing broken heads- they stayed until about 6:30 or 7pm. The job turned out to be a bit more extensive than originally thought, but they stayed within the estimate. It took two additional full days of work, and the system was done on Thursday evening. I need to review some minor adjustments in the system, but overall the work was excellent and I'm very happy. I will be enrolling in Greenstar's quarterly inspection program. Very professional, and Peter seems to take great pride in what he does.
Description of Work: Replaced all sprinkler heads- 3 zones, fixed broken feeder line, added new heads for complete coverage. Ran 2 new drip lines around hedges.

The service was done in a very professional manner from start to finish. From the time I first contacted Greenstar and was told what needed to be done, I was given a date that they would be here and as promised, they were here. Everything was completed on the same day and the job was done very well. The representatives of the company were very courteous and answered whatever questions I had and I could not have been happier with the overall job. I would highly recommend Greenstar to anyone in need of repairs to their sprinkler system and would certainly use them again in the future.

Great experience. It's been a year since the service was performed and I still smile when I see my front yard. Everything has grown in well and looks great. Peter met with me on several occasions to help me choose the plants I wanted. The installation went well. Any issues that came up, were addressed quickly and professionally handled. In addition, Greenstar updated my sprinkler system and added an additional zone, which was much needed. I highly recommend Peter Masi and Greenstar for both landscaping and irrigation needs.

We called as this service provider came highly recommended by Angie's List and a friend. We need our sprinkler system checked because it does not work since we were struck by lightning They told us on the phone to go to an electrician. Now, every electrician we ask says that we need a company like Grecnstar because they specialize on irrigation systems. Guess we have to find another one.
