Maldonado Nursery Landscape & Irrigation

The delivery went OK, but I was shorted 3 plants. After spending over $1,300, the Manager would not make good on the missing plants (about $25). Seems they were willing to lose a customer over 3 missing plants.

Buyer Beware: I hired this company for an $18,000 job. Plants were not the quality I was looking for. They looked browned and tired. My evergreens were planted directly in front of small boxwoods ( and had to be moved), and they installed SMALL cracked flagstone. Too many issues came up and on the second day the owner told his employees to pack up unplanted flowers and leave. I asked the office for my final bill and they charged me for completing items that were not complete or not installed. I asked them to come out and inspect the property so I could show them what wasn't done according to terms and they declined and never showed up again. They also cracked sprinkler heads and plumbing pipes with their heavy equipment and have not yet paid for repairs. What they did instead, was hire an attorney who sent letters threatening to put a lien on my house. The attorney wouldn't stop harassing me, therefore, I had to file a lawsuit. I would really think twice before hiring this company.

They don’t come when they say they would come. They don’t stand behind their work. It’s hard to communicate with them when they come out. We only found out what the price was when we got the bill. Our property isn’t properly irrigated.

Last year I spent close to $10,000 with this business because we had them do spring planting and install irrigation for new plantings, purchased some very large and expensive pots and then had to get a new septic system put in our front yard, so we also had them re-sod our front yard. This year, the soil in the very large pots had sunk so much that I couldn't put plants in them and have them be visible. So I hired (read paid again) them to come back and make the pots look as nice as they did last year. First they put the plants back in the wrong spots and put half the plants in one pot that they put in the other so one looked full and lush, while the other one looked spindly. I called and complained. Someone said they'd come back to fix them. I waited a week and went in. A young woman took my information and said they'd send someone out. Finally two weeks later, I stopped and the owner happened to be there. He said he would send someone immediately and he did. I thought all was good until I noticed a week later that the plants were wilting. I looked and couldn't find the irrigation sprayer. So I went back and talked to the owner's son George. He called the guys who came to do the job. They said that when they added the soil, the irrigation line wasn't long enough so they just left it buried. Notice the word irrigation in this companies name? Clearly they didn't check to make sure the irrigation they installed the year before worked, nor did they have the sense to realize that burying a spray irrigation nozzle/head would not work. Don't use them. They've gotten all the money they'll get from me even though they are just around the corner from our house.
