The Landscaper

Description of Work: Misc. landscaping

Description of Work: I had several leaks in my irrigation system. I asked a friend who she used to do her landscaping. She said Jon Gilmer, The Landscaper, and she said she was very pleased with his work. She has used him for several years. I contacted Jon on Monday morning, 1/7/13, and told him about my leaks. He said he would stop by about noon. He arrived on time. I told him where the leaks were that I knew about. He then did a system test to see the leaks and identify any others. He gave me an upfront estimate of $75 to repair them. When he started to repair the one leak, it became evident that he had to remove and replace the tubing under our concrete patio. This required considerably more work than he initially estimated. Jon then had to run to a parts store a distance away to get a replacement part. This took about 45 minutes. Not only did he repair the leaks he helped me remove two large heavy planting pots and the shrubbery in them that had deteriorated. Jon also did a thorough job of cleaning up after himself. He also checked the settings on my irrigation pump timer to ensure they were properly set, and made an important adjustment to the timing.
