Overall the service is ok. They are very organized when it comes to starting up and closing down the system each year. Two years ago I redid the hardscape in both my front and back yards and they agreed to adjust the irrigation system where needed. Afterwards, I found them to be quite unwilling to make changes to the system when I mentioned areas that either received too much water or not enough. I sent them a detailed, written list of problems to which they never responded.
Description of Work: Pettits has managed my irrigation system for years. They have turned it off and on, performed service calls and responded to problems.

I called several businesses that didn't want to deal with such a small repair job. Pettit's came out within a week to provide an estimate, and accomplished the repair professionally within a couple of days of their estimated date despite weather delays.
Description of Work: Repaired a 4 inch drain pipe from a French drain in the back yard to the street that had been cut in half by cable workers.

I liked their ideas. The gentleman that came out and made the suggestions and the design was very good. They planted the wrong trees in the wrong places. Two days after they planted the trees one of them fell over and I called them and they never returned my call. I had to re-plant the tree myself and it was a 6 foot tree. It is crooked, but it is alive. I feel that a tree that size should not fall over two days after it has been planted. They planted rose bushes and during the winter they died and had to be replaced. They had planted them so shallow that the wind and the size that they were by winter just pulled them out of the ground and they died and new ones had to be planted. The mulch they used was filled with nut grass seed. I never had any problem before and I never had nut grass until that mulch was put down. Their price was competitive; I had no problem with the price they gave me. The representative that did the design was very professional but the workers who came to do the planting did not know what they were doing. One of the reasons that I went with the company was the designer and other people's recommendation. I would not use them again in the future.
Description of Work: I had asked them to plant some trees along the side of my driveway and also to landscape a front foundation bed.

His men didn't properly plant many of the azaleas. They just popped them out of the pots and stuck them in the ground. Without loosening the roots, they couldn't get adequate water. (We found this out when the other company came in and showed us why the azaleas died. I don't blame Chris. It was lack of supervision that caused the problems for us. I have also tried to reach Chris, and he does not return my calls. He gave me an estimate for irrigating the yard (in its entireity) it was over $8,000. Which seemed to be rather high BUT it did include all our beds. We didn't do it because of the price. We still have not irrigated the yard as the seller of the house lied to us about its condition, and we've spent that money making the house livable. The reason I would not use Pettit's is their failure to return calls and give good service.
Description of Work: Pettits fixed our front yard after a nasty sewer replacement. Chris is a really nce guy and we really like him. BUT, a number of the azaleas he put in did not survive--I called and left a message for his brother Mike--who has yet to call me back. They also did a clean up of the entire yard--very nice job. They relocated a number of boxwood (which are doing fine) and some miscellaneous azaleas to a new bed at the north end of the house from the front yard. They planted some azaleas in the back by the pool, and moved the roses to one area--roses did fine. Many of the azaleas died. Again, called and left a message for Mike Pettit to call re the dead shrubs, have never heard from him. I had to pay a couple of thousand dollars to have all the dead shrubs dug up, removed from the property and new ones planted.

Fair. Chris' brother, Mike, is bad about not returning calls--we've been waiting for months. Chris is a super nice guy, and had he been present all the time, I doubt this would have happened.
Description of Work: We had Pettit's redo our front yard after we had to replace the sewer line and it was all dug up and a holy mess! They did beautiful work--put in about 50 azaleas, BUT when summer came, half died, and we were watering properly. Found out that the roots had not been released on any of the plants that died. The problem probably occurred due to lack of a supervisor on the job all the time. Chris had a great idea for our front lawn, and now that we have replaced the dead azaleas, it looks amazing (we used someone else for the replacements)

Where we wanted evergreens, we got crepe myrtles (spring and summer). All 5 plants that they brought turned out to be dead. They said they have a one year guarantee, and they honored it with 5 evergreens which were planted in the fall (plus we purchased 2 more to go with them). Of those, 2 are dead and they have promised to replace them. Most of the other shrubs they planted did ok, and the other small plants that didn't survive they have replaced. Overall 1/3 of what they planted has been replaced.
Description of Work: Designed landscaping for our residential yard after we built a new wall that enclosed much more of our yard, especially that blocked our view of a busy street. We pretty much had them plant what they recommended. Our main interest was having things that bloomed or at least were green during the first 6 months of the year.

I feel that they may have charged me double for the price of the sod. They came when scheduled and did a good job. They left me instructions for the maintenance of the lawn. I would hire them again but would do more negotiating on the price.
Description of Work: I hired this company to put in a new lawn. They came out and killed the old grass and then dug it up and hauled away. They then laid down the new sod.

Pettit's Provided a detailed, written estimate for both jobs. They were on time for the estimate and to do the work. They sent a large crew to get the job done in two days. Matt Lilly was great to work with again. I have used him for several other jobs (large hardscape/ landscape project, irrigation). We are very happy with the results. Looks great!

The entire project was completed in a timely manner. They had it done by the time they said it would be completed. We were treated pretty good. They did arrive on time to start the project. We shopped around and decided to go with this company. They were recommended to us by a friend. We have had no problems with our new system.
Description of Work: Pettits Lawnscapes installed a new spray lawn sprinkler system in our front and back yard. They installed an estimated 25 to 35 in ground spray heads around our land totaling around 1 1/2 acres of property.

I had heard of this by our neighborhood newsletter. They were careful workers as they replaced our sod after installing the underground lines. They left our lawn looking very nice. They hid the back flow behind a hedge so it would not be visible and covered it with a special green cover which blends it in well. The irrigation system works perfectly and I too will be recommending this company.

We needed to find a professional company with experience in this field. We found this company to be absolutely perfect. We were so happy with the way everyone treated us. The guys who did the installation were very friendly. They did not make a huge mess. What mess they did have they cleaned up perfectly. We found their prices to be some of the very best we found.

I am happy with the performance of the irrigation system. It does a good job. But the inspector never passed it. I have contacted them twice but they have not come back yet. I had our system drained and that guy said he would mention it too. I understand that the inspection requirement responsibility lands more on them than on me. I was happy with the installation at the time of the service.

Chris, the owner is a super nice guy. I signed up for his services right away when I met with him. However, I would not recommend them at all. The sprinklers are fine it s the dead shrubs that are the problem. I was told if any died when they were planted they would replace them free of charge. They are not doing well and many have died. No one will come out to take care of this. I feel they don't stand by their word. Even though the main part which was the sprinklers is fine I still would not use them again.

My yard gets irrigated very easily and evenly know. The system works great. It comes on and turns off when its done. The installation went quite easily for them. They cleaned up all the dirt and filled in the holes where they dug. I just had nothing to complain about.

They did a pretty good job but some of the shrubbery didn t look as good as I thought it would. I think maybe it was planted in the wrong place, but I agreed to everything they did. They left the yard looking good and they were on time. They also maintain our irrigation system and they do a good job with it. I like them and will recommend them.
Description of Work: They planted a lot of bushes and trees across one side of our back yard along the fence. It is a long back yard. They laid some mulch and planted some seed, too. I paid them $5000.
