Worst experience ever. HORRIBLE DISHONEST scam with Alliance Landcare.
Eric Montiel is a very shady salesman who we made the mistake of trusting for a major project: Turf Removal and Sprinkler installation on over 5,000 square feet (my Front AND Back yard). He told us he would bring 4 workers with him, working 8 hour days, and the project would be done in 4 days. But from the first day, the lies began, he showed up late, didn't work at all, didn't even stay on the property, simply left ONE worker to work by himself for only 5 hours with a lunch in between and Eric then showed up to pick up this one solitary worker!! When I complained to Eric, he apologized and admitted this is not what we had agreed to and the project would never get done with one guy working by himself for only 4-5 hours a day and Eric promised he would have more workers the second day. But the next day, he again dropped off only ONE worker and he quickly left to avoid communicating with me at all! I tried to give Alliance the benefit of the doubt and multiple chances, but the lies and scamming continued every day as I caught them multiple times (with my own eyes and my property security cameras) trying to get away with doing only a minor part of the job they had agreed to do. They told me that certain sections in the yard were "done" but they did not cap off the old sprinklers as they said they would in our contract. Also, because they were rushing, they broke MULTIPLE sprinkler pipes in my existing system with careless digging, and then they had the nerve to not even tell me about it! If I wasn't watching them, who knows what else they would have done to scam and cut corners. Alliance knew we took days off work to be available for the project. But Alliance purposely chose to cut corners, scam, and lie to us, which meant that our project took an EXTRA 3 days and it is STILL not complete one month later! We had to take off 3 extra days just so we could watch them. Now I know what their plan was all along: they sign people up for a project, drop off only one worker, cut corners and hope you don't notice. They prolonged the job thinking we would go back to work and then they could cut corners while we were not home so we wouldn't see their scam. Watch everything they do--Do NOT trust this company on your property! If you have had a similar experience with Alliance Landcare, please message me. read more
