We've used Swenke's services for a while and just recently hit our wall with them. NO more. Whether it's been a a mowing contract, "Spring clean-up" or sprinkler repair -- they've been marginal to awful. Literally every time their team came to do something - they would either damage the house (larger mower bashing into the stucco wall) do a half-ass job, to more recently - leaving things in worse condition then before they arrived. Changing out sprinkler tubing and not burying it back in the ground, screwing up the wiring to the sprinkler system, leaving dirt and debris strewn about in places it shouldn't be. It seemed intentional. The last job, was a lot of money for ZERO improvement to the sprinklers. In fact, they're worse - leaving burnt grass spots on an entire side of our yard. The owner seems checked out and has little care or attention to when there's a problem. Most all of their crew is rude, with the exception of maybe 2 guys. The rest hardly acknowledge you, do sloppy work and leave the job site without knocking and doing a walk-around with us, even when we asked specifically for this to be done! No pride or care in doing their work. They have given us nothing but headaches and horrible service. read more
