They performed the services just as they said they would. They notified me of their planned arrival days ahead of time. They also instructed me to mark my sprinkler heads in some way to avoid damage. None of my sprinkler heads were damaged in this process. One word of caution...if you have soaker hose (as I do along the parkway) there's probably a good chance you will experience some damage to the hose unless you tell them to avoid that section of the lawn. I didn't inform them about this ahead of time. Lesson learned.

I discovered that the irrigation system was a lot more extensive than I had realised. The sytem was checked out to make sure that water was getting to all the outlets, damaged ones were repalced, and the system was rechecked. The whole job was a little mor thatn I had expected, but the system was more extensive than imained, so actually was not that expensive overall! The work took less time than the tech had envisaged, despite having to dig into the hard clay soil. Overall a very good job.
Description of Work: The whole irrigation system was tested to ascertain where all the nozzles/outlets were situated. These were all checked for serviceability and marked for those that needed replacement. The technician demonstrated to me how the system worked. I had never had an irrigation system before. All damaged nozzles/outlets were repalaced and the system was checked again to ensure taht it was working correctly. The system was then set up to run at the times authorised by our water Company.

Once I purchased the irrigation service the company called promptly to schedule the appointment. I had to reschedule the appointment due to a conflict. The company was very accommodating with rescheduling the service. I would highly recommend them to anyone requiring irrigation services. Very professional and accommodating. They showed up on time and completed the job with no issues.
Description of Work: I scheduled the service for irrigation on my front and back yard.

Description of Work: They came out to inspect the sprinklers system and replaced the water valve in the front lawn (we asked them to replace that because the other one is too old).

Have used this company twice now to repair leaks in lawn sprinkler system. They're prompt, professional, and get the work done as promised. They also take care to restore the turf in the repaired area as best as possible after the repair. Will definitely continue to use.

Timely followed up after credit card was given within 3-5 days. Then, after 4-6 weeks, we contacted them and they said we had fallen through the cracks. Our lawn still has winter grass, weeds, and clover in it. We DO NOT recommend this company, for anyone with winter grass or clover issues. After the initial appt didnt' happen, they did respond and came twice per the agreement. The main reason I wrote the initial review was they didn't contact me via email or phone, just sent an invoice for $500.00 and asked if I would like to continue this summer and fall for $500.00. When I did post this review on Angies List, the owner, Mr Ken Hyatt could understand that I was an unhappy customer, apologized and offfered me a partial or full refund which he did.
Description of Work: We saw an Angie's list recommendation for this company. They called that week and said they would be out in a week or two and then again about four to six weeks after that for follow up treatment. After they saw that I was unhappy, they responded and offered to make it good which they did. After waiting for about a month or 6 weeks, II contacted them and they said they were sorry but we had fallen through the cracks. Our lawn still has winter grass, weeds, clover, and other weeds. The yard is still full of weeds and winter grass.

Response from Village Green
This is Ken Hyatt, I'm the founder and president of Village Green and as much as I hate to admit, this member is correct. We made a mistake at the beginning of this relationship. The member had purchased a Big Deal coupon in late January for two lawn care treatments, and because of an error on our side, we did not schedule their treatments. It took the client contacting us on March 6th for us to realize our mistake. This is unacceptable. We haven't stayed in business for 30 + years treating our customers in this manner. All I can say is that I'm sorry and that we've reviewed the error and I have made changes so this type of mistake doesn't happen again. As for the condition of their lawn. I don't think it is completely fair to blame Village Green for its current state. After getting this recent negative review Village Green visited the home to do an inspection of the yard and to talk to the member (they were not home.) On that visit we noted that 1/3 of the lawn has either Bermuda or St. Augustine with the rest being grassy weeds. After the visit I reviewed our records and saw that Village Green treated their lawn for the first time on March 8th (the client actually sent us a note after our first visit, thanking us for the timely response since they had only contacted us two days prior,) and the second and final time (per their Big Deal coupon) on April 11th. Our records indicated that this lawn wasn't in great shape back in March. After only two treatments we saw some positive results (most of their broad leaf weeds were gone and the good turf that existed was healthy) which I think speaks volumes about our ability to help our customers achieve a good looking and healthy lawn. It was only two visits though, and after our second and final one we attempted to contact the member to see if they wanted to continue a treatment program. We never heard back from them, at least not until they posted the recent unhappy review. Taking care of a lawn is like taking care of your health. You can take your multivitamin, exercise, get plenty of rest, etc. for a few weeks and you'll see improvement. Usually the improvements are only as good as your prior health history. If you were in bad shape to begin with it will take longer to see positive results. Regardless, when you stop, the benefits you gained will dissipate over time. The longer you let it go, the harder it is to get it right again. Your lawn is no different. You have to nurture it. Employ a proper watering schedule and continue treating for weeds as needed. And by that I don't mean that you have to continue to use Village Green. You can do it on your own if you desire. This lawn wasn't in good shape when we started. After only two treatments we had the member on the right course, but for whatever reason it appears that nothing has been done to the lawn since. Village Green can't assume responsibility for that. I don't play the blame game. It is not how we've stayed in business since 1980. We plan to again reach out to this member to see if we can't work out a plan that will help them get their lawn back in shape. Or at the least offer up some helpful tips and advice so they can manage the problems effectively on their own.

The work was performed very well and in a timely manor (about 4 hours). The service guy did not mind me following him around on that cold day however the prices are a bit high on parts and hourly rate. I had no problem paying the higher prices but can not rate it as an 'Excellent or Good' price as it was a bit excessive for the difficulty level doing this work (not to mention I didn't get my Angie's List discount). Make sure to print your Angie's List coupon and present the coupon (I assumed I would not need to print it and hand it to him.).
Description of Work: Fix water a valve issue. Fix damaged sprinkler heads.

I recall no issues with punctuality and they were pleasant to work with and tidy.
Description of Work: The Big Deal was for an inspection of my sprinkler system. Which, in hind sight, was a drive-by because addressing the issues I identified began immediately. The issue work was not covered by the $59 Big Deal so the repair cost was on top of the Big Deal inspection. Because of that, I was only charged $52.50 for a half hour for the repairs instead of the one hour minimum. So maybe, I got a deal for the work done. When I inspected the whole system on my own after they left (my bad...I should know better but I seem to defer to "expertise") I found a busted head, two more that were cracked at the sprayer so that their spray was impaired. At a glance, there was spray but it was not effective. They had shortened a few of the pipes. There were at least 3 that needed to be extended to clear landscape growth that also escaped VG's notice. I was not charged for three heads that were replaced yet none of the removed pipes were left with me. Well I spent a good amount of time making this review complete and fair and yet somehow the last half hour of effort is not here. So I have a complaint with Angie's list and this review is not as helpful as the one that was lost. The overall rating of "D" was due to the weight I give quality. I would have gladly paid for more time and parts to have it complete and done right.

This is Ken Hyatt, I'm the founder and president of Village Green. It appears we missed a few things on this visit, and I'd like to thank the member for their honest review. We have reached out to the client (left a message) with the offer to fix the things she found at no cost to her. I'd like to publicly apologize to this member for our errors, and hope they'll give us the opportunity to make it right, and earn their business in the future.

Excellent! I would highly recommend this company! Over the years we have used 2-3 sprinkler companies and none have compared to the service and professionalism of this company. Daryl Harris was the one that serviced our system and ensured each section was working properly and adjusted them. Daryl also took the time to explain how set the best time sequence for watering and how to use the new system overall.
Description of Work: Checked each sprinkler station and adjusted as needed. Replaced existing sprinkler control unit with a Rain Bird which is much easier to work.

Village Green came on time and they did a fine job on everything they did. In fact, I'm still using them for doing my lawn.
Description of Work: I used two Angie Big Deals for lawn aeration and one for fertilization and weed killing. They charged per square footage, so I ended up spending more than what was on the Big Deal.

Description of Work: I purchased an aeration from Village Green and was contacted by the owner about scheduling and about the size of my yard. We agreed my square footage was more than was included in the groupon. Very friendly and knowledgeable owner. Unfortunately his service person arrived during a time I was not at my home and only aerated the front lawn. When I called & emailed VG it took several tries to find out that their aerator machine would not fit through one of my back gates, however it would have fit through a second one that was not accessed. After several attempts of trying to complete the aeration, the owner and I agreed we would not be charged an additional yardage fee and would just go with what had been done. It was a good experience for what was completed, but frustrating not to get the job completed.

Came to do a tune up on sprinkler system although were unable to assess because the controls would not allow manual application. Did their best with limits. Replace a sprinkler hear although it turned out to be the septic sprinkler. If I had known I would replaced it with the head specific to septic.
