Corliss is very good. I always want to use them but they always come in very high on estimates. This is the second time I went with someone else because their estimate was double the others. I wonder if they would be better at commercial or on bigger projects? I would certainly have them in for an estimate, your mileage may vary on the price if the job is bigger.

It went well, except we were advised to plant Mount Batten Zjuniper trees as a screening effect from the neighbor. Problem is, when it snows heavily, we lose branches and have list two trees. It was probably not the best variety of tree to use.
Description of Work: Extensive clearing and landscaping of area between my house and neighbor.

Anybody that goes with them is making a sad mistake. I had a very very bad summer with them. I wouldn't recommend them to anybody. I had the irrigation system put in in 2003. They are very, very expensive. I didn't realize it then. I had a landscaper at the time that brought them and after the job was done I found out that people could do it for less money. They never checked the water pressure when they put it in. Come to find out the water pressure was so low they had to dig a trench from the front of my house to the street which was $2000. I was wiped out. Every year they would turn on the system and then they would turn it off and talking to other people, they were charging me $81.00 to turn it on and $81.00 to shut it off and I only had 3 stations. Every other one was charging $50.00. So from 2003 all the way up to last year I was getting ripped off. So, last year, they turned the system on. I waited 4 days for the water to come on, it didn't come on, I called Corliss up and I said to them, whoever came down to turn the system on didn't turn it on right. Because I had my landscaper look at it, he knows about different kind of stuff. Well, we can't get anybody down there, we are very busy. So I said, well, can you give me a call when you get a chance. I came home from work one say and I see this swarm of water falling down my driveway. The backflow burst all the way down the driveway. They couldn't get anybody to help because they were busy. Some guy came when I was at work, left a note, Corliss was here, give us a call. They didn't make an appointment. When they did turn it on at the beginning of the year they came on the wrong day. I was getting a little fed up. You know what happened toward the end of the season, I said, never mind, I'm busy, I don't want to lose me job. So the end of the year came for them to shut the system down. While they were going to shut the system down they were going to fix the back flow. I had to carry buckets of water to go out and water my plants because I had not part of the house for water flow. They came down. They didn't come down on time. I called them in the morning and said, Look, I have to go to work. The girl was a terrible person to deal with, she was horrible. I called them up at 9:30, they were supposed to be there at 8:00. She says to me, their equipment broke down, we'll have to make another appointment. Like I don't work. So I said, never mind making another appointment, just have them shut the system down and shut the system down period, don't bother doing anything else. They came down 2 hours later and shut the system down. I was getting ready for work. They charged me $81.00 for nothing. Their prices are high. I would not recommend them to anybody. They are never here on time. The girl that answers the phone is a terrible, terrible person.

Corliss came to give us an estimate and then did the work. They had the best estimate out of three. We got them to create many edge gardens and one front yard garden on a new property. The work included adding lots (6 yards) of new soil and mulch. They planted about 15 trees. We will use them again. Very professional, good workers, cleaned up, checked in to see if we were happy. Great!
