On Tuesday, April 21, 2026, I hired Wild Jungle Landscaping and Amadeus Perez, its owner, to complete landscaping and the installation of dual irrigation system for my front and rear yards. I also instructed Amadeus to first speak with me upon arrival before his crew touched anything on my property to give me details on what he planned to do. While the crew arrived early that morning, to my irritation, Amadeus arrived later. He explained that I should speak to him about what I wanted done on the property, not his crew. However, as the job progressed, there were certain things that I had to point out to his crew that were not being done to the yard as well as they should have been. Fast forward to Thursday, April 30, 2026, after Amadeus and I agreed to meet as not only was the job incomplete but some of the plants did not have the required sprinkler heads to be watered on a daily basis. Amadeus sent his brother, Damien, instead that day. Initially, it was awkward as it appeared that Damien was neither not apprised and/or did not understand why he was asked to visit my property. After some explanation and I showed Damien the problems, he began to address both the missing sprinkler for the plants, replacing some of the plants by replanting some of the cacti, other issues with the irrigation system as well as problems with the trees not being pruned well. Upon completion, I paid Damien in full, by check, for $2,250. However, I kept receiving email notices that not only had I not made a payment and the total bill was a higher amount than was quoted on the contract, but the 4-year warranty paperwork for the dual irrigation system was never attached, as promised. While the payment issue was resolved, the problem with never receiving the warranty materials for the irrigation system has yet to be resolved. I contacted Amadeus several times via text, email and voicemails to forward these materials to no avail.
When I hired Wild Jungle Landscaping, my intent was to secure a company to complete my landscaping for the longterm. However, given my experience in dealing with the owner, Amadeus Perez, I decided against ever retiring this company for any type of landscaping work in the future. The job completed was satisfactory but the extent to which it was necessary for me to follow-up with the owner just to get the job completed was not only unnecessary but frustrating to say the least. And, now that the owner, Amadeus Perez, has repeatedly ignored my requests to provide the warranty paperwork for the installation of the dual irrigation system only reinforces my resolve that this is neither a company nor trustworthy individual/owner to ever deal with. I will be taking other steps to secure the warranty materials for the irrigation system. However, I will never recommend this company to anyone. read more
