(To the tune of The Beverly Hillbillies in case it's not obvious)…read more C'mon listen to a story bout a girl named Jen. A poor single girl barely kept her lawn fed. And then one day, she was bootin' her lawn fool. And out of nowhere came the dirt-y-deeds crew. Felipe, that is. Like gold. Saved me. I was at my wit's end trying to find a reliable person/crew to do my lawn. I tried Craigslist, word of mouth, Yellow Pages. They either didn't show up or didn't show up consistently or they were very unreasonably priced. When voicing my frustration, a friend handed me a card for Dirt-y-deeds and said her landlord used him. She couldn't vouch for him, but why not? It's not like my lawn will mow itself, and I don't have the time (okay, more I don't have the inclination, but let's not get distracted by details like this). Enter Felipe Comacho. I pay $25 every two weeks for my lawn to be mowed and edged, which is awesome, but the most important part to me is that he shows up! I never anticipated that being such a huge obstacle when I bought my house. Don't people want to create a name for themselves with their business? Don't they need repeat business to grow? Word of mouth? Felipe has also cut my tree branches ($20), cut down and hauled away an entire tree ($25), and loaded up and took into oblivion (or so I thought) my trash and wood leftovers from replacing my fence ($25). He knows I don't have a truck and recognizes when I need a little extra help..sometimes before I do. I enjoy conversing with him and can really tell he cares about his customers. Get this: when he is running late or needs to change our routine, he calls. Wha? Yes, he calls. Whatever came of those items he hauled away, you ask? He recycled everything he could, including using the old fence slats and posts to make ground stakes. He prides himself on being eco-friendly, which is important to me, too. I don't get how he does it so cheaply, but I won't start to question him, that's for sure. Well, now it's time to say goodbye to overgrown lawns and beds. I would like to thank Felipe for kindly haulin' off the dead. He is always invited back again to this locality because he gives a heapin' helping of hospitality. Reliability, that is. Mow well. Take my trash off. Y'all come back now, ya' hear?

For the past two years, we've had nasty flash floods that have left us collectively about $30,000…read morein debt, even with flood insurance. The house is built on a hill, and when a heavy rain hits us after a dry spell, bad things happen. When the last payout finally came in, we'd planned to earmark a big chunk for fixing the drainage once and for all. Enter Keep Austin Landscaped. Even though our house is small and they usually don't do such small jobs, they came up with a great plan to reroute the water from uphill and guide it around our house to prevent flooding. Initially they suggested an inexpensive galvanized wire and rock wall to keep the water from flowing into our house, but later decided that a better, solid concrete retaining wall would do the job better - - for just the same price. And then, of course, COVID happened. Nevertheless, the KAL team was still ready to work with us as long as we gave the workers their distance, which of course was only fair. I really appreciated them coming out and risking getting sick to do that work, especially when we were really scared that any time now we might flood again. Our uphill neighbors initially agreed to allow us to install a French drain on their property to allow water to drain into the alley behind our houses instead of into our house, but then reneged for reasons we still don't understand. We offered to adjust planning to take any specific concerns into account or seek mediation, but they insisted that we not do anything on their side of the hill. Of course it's difficult to route water away from a house down hill if you can't do anything before the water gets there! The nice folks at KAL tried several times to speak to my neighbors in both English and Spanish on our behalf, and in the end our neighbors allowed them to complete the plan by extending gravel drainage along the shared fence. We've just had the first heavy rain after a dry spell since they've been out here, and not a hint of flooding. Working with them has been an absolute joy, and we heartily recommend them for anyone with a landscaping or drainage issue.

Dreamscapes is the company you want to hire to take care of your landscape construction needs. My…read morewife and I interviewed 4 other companies we found through all the regular review sites. Besides price, the owner Mike was by far the reason we chose Dreamscapes. His demeanor, professionalism, and attentiveness to our needs paid great dividends as the project moved from the planning stages all the way to completion with all the ups and downs you would expect from such a large project. When we first received Dreamscape's bid we wondered what the catch was since all the other companies' bids were so high even though it was an apple to apple comparison. To say it's the wild, wild west in the construction business is an understatement. The price of materials is the price so once you boil down costs you can see if someone is charging too much. It was refreshing to have a business charge a decent price while being able to make a profit for itself that wasn't going to end up with me sending their kids to Stanford. We had received a separate quote for outdoor lights that Mike was able to undercut significantly. Once work started Mike kept in constant communication with us to let us know what the status of his crew was for the day or week so we could plan our days accordingly. His general labor crew was extremely courteous and professional and cleaned up after each day. His stonework guys were the same and I was so impressed with their work that I added a new mailbox to the contract. Mike also has a crew that does topnotch pavestone work that created the design we were looking for. As with all large projects, not everything went according to plan but this is where Mike's professionalism took over. Mike never asked for more money if an item was over budget or his guys had to fix mistakes. He always accepted responsibility as a business owner which says a lot about his ethics and it's evident he takes pride in his company. Dreamscapes turned our yard into a wonderful place to hang out and enjoy during any season. Don't hesitate to call Mike and have him bid on your project. You will be treated professionally, honestly, and will not be ripped off. **********Update 15 September 2017******** Had an issue with our fountain light and Mike fixed with no questions asked and without any of the usual contractor BS. Some areas of the yard were a little sparse on the mulch due to settling and Mike came out with a full pallet of mulch and took care of the problem. Some of the irrigation lines his sub installed were having issues and Mike made sure they were taken care of. He has a good working relationship with his subs which is reassuring. It's great to finally work with a business owner who actually gets that by treating his customers fairly he will get more business and referrals.
