    Rachelle D.

    Our first interactions with the owner, Ben, were great and he was very knowledgable and friendly. We weren't urgent about the projects we wanted done, so we were flexible about dates and times. He was a little slow to respond with a quote, and we had to remind him we were awaiting a response, but we understood it was the busiest time of the year for the industry. We finally got something on the calendar for a month out; then he let us know a spot had opened up much earlier and they would come out the next day to do the first part of the project and then the following day to finish up. We gladly accepted. What we came home to on that first day was incredibly disappointing. We had asked them to clean up some mulch beds, lay sod and fill in bare patches, as well as remove a few posts and install decomposed granite on one side of the house. The team had clearly just thrown sod on top of mulch and weeds, lumpy ground and all, and left bare patches and holes all over the yard. I assumed this wasn't the final product and waited a few days before contacting Ben. He replied the next day to say "I will swing by and take a look this afternoon." He did not show until the next day (when we were out), and reported finding only one spot that was a "little uneven," which he hand-tamped, to little effect (we're almost two months out from the work, and we've seen little improvement). Unlike our initial communication, Ben's emailed responses to our complaints were brief and curt. I wish we hadn't let them move up the date because it was clearly a rushed job done with minimal effort. So now we have a lumpy yard with some serious potholes, unending weeds growing through sod and bare spots that we've resorted to filling ourselves. Maybe our expectations were too high, but for the price, we expected better (and could have done a better job ourselves).

    ATXscapes updated some of the landscaping in my yard and did an excellent job. I would highly recommend them. Honest and high quality work.

    Wow, what an amazing experience. Stan was easy to connect with from Yelp…read more Older house we bought - inherited sprinkler issues :/ He was very communicative. Answered all questions I had.

Then I went to turn on my sprinklers so they would have some water while I waited and found my sprinkler control panel was a mess and resetting it didn't fix the problem. I told On The Spot Sprinkler Repair about this and they recommended I got an inexpensive replacement sprinkler control system from Amazon which then arrived the same day. I told the repair service that I was now in a bit of a rush since I went from maintenance needs to a completely broken system, and they squeezed me in the next day which was EXTREMELY nice of them! Oh, and it turns out that my sprinklers were fine after the winter, I just had a busted control system -- perhaps from an electrical surge so I am now protecting the system with a UPS/surge protector setup. (I had an old UPS that I was going to throw away but it had plenty of juice left in it for such a little control system.) All communications with them were very fast and professional and On The Spot Sprinkler Repair was very knowledgeable which is not always the case with repair people.

    Travis was a life saver by installing our landscaping for our new custom home in time for move-in…read morewhen it turned out we did not have landscaping included in our project. From the first meeting, he was professional and took the project seriously. He started with a drone photo overhead and created a design with our architect's plan. Travis worked with us to design a drought-tolerant landscape with a combination of astroturf and xeriscape, as well as limestone paver walkways with black granite and black steel edging to go with the aesthetics of our modern ranch. Our third party inspector noted that many landscape companies do not weld the steel edging to the stakes, but Travis's crew welded all of the connections and the steel seems thicker than what we had at our previous home. We chose Thrive because of other Google reviews combined with our interactions with Travis during the quote and design process. We found the same to be true as other reviewers, which was his crew was very positive, helpful, energetic, and some of the hardest workers on our project. They were the first to arrive in the morning, worked hard and fast all day, and stayed often until dark. We truly appreciated the hustle, and the quality and beauty of the finished product and would not hesitate recommending Thrive to anyone in need of landscape services.
