They were absolutely horrible in every respect. The quality of their work was sub par, their follow up was both late and management response was very poor. They eventually walked off the job without completing it. I would not recommend that anyone hire this company nor would any of our neighbors who had similar experiences with them.
Description of Work: Total landscape job.

Honestly, not great. The crew was reliable and showed up every week as promised, yet my lawn looked worse than all but one in my neighborhood. There was never any communication about scheduling fertilization, etc., so given the condition of my lawn I was left having to proactively reach out almost every month to ask if additional services needed to be performed. I just wanted my lawn to look good and would gladly pay for anything not included in my contract, but the lack of communication made it difficult to understand what was possible without constantly nagging with emails.
Description of Work: Full-service lawn care (mowing, trimming, leaves, pruning, etc.).

Started at 9:00am tuesday morning with a full team ready to work. First one guy went over with me where each zone would be and what type of heads that were being used on each zone. I had a couple of odd areas to water but they were able to come up with a good solution. The installation was using PVC where a 10 ditch was dug with a ditch-whitch machine then the pipes were laid and backed filled with the soil, new sod was brought in to replaced the sod dug up where the PVC was laid. The problem I had was that the machine tires tore up my lawn pretty bad and in a lot of spots the sod had to be replaced. There was a little resisitant to do this but it was agreed they would fix it The problem was mis-matched type of sod was used and a lot of places where the sod was not completly dug up but was tore up was not replaced and nothing was done. Overall it went good but the next time I would take pictures and have a discussion on exactly how the damage would be repaired. I looked into having a company come out where they simply cut the sod and pull black pipe in the ground and not used the PVC but almost all my neighbors who had gone this route had leakage problem soon afterwards and the machine still tears up the sod. I would use Shamrock Landscaping again, the price was good and the salesman was honest and tried to satisfy me as much as he could.
Description of Work: Installed an irrigation system. They were 4 or 5 guys that showed up on time and started working, due to rain it took one extra day.

Well, I had called them on Aug 21 and told them I wanted them to do the job. They advised it would not be that week, but they could do most likely the following week. I was fine with that. Well, we are now over a month after I told them to do the job and no one has called or been by to do any work. I think they have forgotten about me or purposely decided not to do the job because it probably wasn't a huge money maker for them. I have contact them and told them not to bother. I'll be using another landscaper instead.
Description of Work: They were going to install a french drain and clean out a draining ditch. They were going to replace some landscaping rocks and do some light grading work.

We have since moved and look forward to having them help us again with our yard:)
Description of Work: The guys over at Shamrock were awesome! They came and fixed a complete nightmare from another landscaper who had no idea what he was doing, except to bleed us dry! Our orginal landscape job was to regrade and re-landscape our front yard. The first landscaper planted what looked like a beautiful selection of plants. The only problem was he planted too many, too close and it ended up looking like a jungle in a matter of months. It was terrible. I called Shamrock, they came, they completely re-designed not only the front yard, but were able to landscape the side yard and all of the backyard with the existing plants from the first landscaper! It looks amazing! They totally saved my intial investment in the plants, which would have never survived in their orginal location. They also fixed my irrigation and mulched all my beds. Can't say enough of how please we were with them! I referred out several of my neighbors, one who used them for a complete overhaul of their backyard, to include retaining walls, a fountain, etc. It turned out beatifully and she absolutely loves her yard now!

It was a really good experience and I feel that they were professional and willing to help me out as long as they were already out at my home. I appreciate it and would not hesitate to recommend them.
Description of Work: I called Shamrock Landscaping since they installed the sprinkler system in our home when it was built. The employee took a couple of days to get back with me, but they were the still the fastest by far of all of the people whom I had called to get quotes from. They came right out and fixed two broken sprinkler heads. They also checked the rest of the system at their own suggestion, free of charge, to make sure that the rest of the system was in good working order. They even reprogrammed my sprinkler control system and installed a 9V battery (which I had no idea was available) to keep the system from losing programming when the power goes out.

The job was completed on time and at budget. The price is always right and am left feeling that I received more than what was quoted, which is rare. I strongly recommend this firm, especially if you need help creating a vision for you yard and outdoor living space.
Description of Work: This is the second time I have used Brannon and Shamrock to improve the appearance of our yard. We have a very challenging terrain and Brannon has a good eye for design. This second trip involved further shaping of the beds, mulch, pine straw and additional plants for privacy.

They did have to cut one of my azalea bushes in 1/2. They did the irrigation when we purchased the house from the builder. Just kept using them. Been using them for over 10 yrs.
Description of Work: Company replaced 4 sprinkler valves.
Description of Work: Brannon Penland with Shamrock Landscaping is THE BEST!!!! My husband and I initially hired Shamrock to add new plants and trees to our much needed front yard. From the second we met Brannon, we knew we had made the right decision. He created an unbelievable plan for a new walkway, hardscape, landscaping and lighting. Our yard has gone from shabby to amazing because of Brannon's creativity and work ethic. Throughout the process he has listened to our vision and made numerous cost saving suggestions along the way.

I have been happy with them. They are very punctual. I pay $600 as a monthly maintenance and they maintain my landscaping and lawn. That also includes the fertilizing and weeding of the lawn and in addition they do the mulch. They keep up with everything and sometimes you do have to remind them or put signs that tell them that you put things on the lawn. They are pruning things when they should not be pruned and sometimes I have to ask them to come back and put more weed kill. I think they do a good job and generally keep up with things. They will come back do anything I ask them to.
Description of Work: I have a monthly maintenance contract with Shamrock Landscaping for maintenance and mowing of my lawn. They always come on Monday mornings and were last here on Monday.
