A MASTER GARDENER for over 15 years, i have seen some good and honest landscapers, and many more not so good. Most landscape contractors' are the horticultural equivalent of the used car salesmen. they'll tell you anything to get you to sign on the bottom line. I have no personal knowledge of the company you asked about. they could be the best in Santa Clara, or the worst. if you are thinking of using them to do a job for you, i have a little advise before you sign. ask them for references AND CHECK THEM OUT! ask to see some of the work they have done in your area. not just recent work, but jobs they did 4 or 5 years ago. go see how those jobs turned out and don't be afraid to ask the former client how happy they were with the job? a good contractor would be proud to show off his work and would gladly provide you with references. if he is reluctant in any way, take it as a warning and look for a different contractor. it's your home, and you have to live with his work long after he is history. take your time and do your homework. good luck.

i purchased a settee and love seat from Levitz (no longer in Santa Clara) and that i loved them until eventually I went to expose the cushions, the springs from the settee poked by and positioned a hollow in each cushion! I referred to as and they suggested they might ought to fee me to deliver some one out in simple terms to examine it, regardless if it became less than "production unit" assure, the save assure became no longer valid. I referred to as and complained to the numerous places of paintings and they does no longer do some thing for me. I in undemanding words had them for a million 3 hundred and sixty 5 days and all the cushions had holes. I spent over 2000! I wouldnt propose them.
