"I was very impressed with George Wimmer, "My personal gardener."
My problem was that my sump was running often most seasons of the year, and dumping water into the side yard where it would run down a shallow valley in my lawn and over the public sidewalk. It has been a constant source of erosion, poor lawn, soft and muddy ground especially in the spring, and even ice covering my sidewalk in cold weather. I was not allowed by the city of Noblesville to connect my sump overflow to the storm sewer. I could not send the water off my property to be a problem for a neighbor either, of course.
I had done some research and developed an idea for a dry well to receive the water. I contacted several companies in Angies List that were landscapers or dealt with water drainage problems. After all was said and done, "My personal gardener" not only grasped the problem and the necessary solution, but gave me a very reasonable estimate for the solution.
George and his assistant dug a hole 4x4 feet square, and 5 feet deep. They cut the sod off first, and set it aside to be replaced later. George used a mini-backhoe to do the real digging, and it dug the hole quickly even through hard blue clay.  An empty 55 gallon drum was placed in the hole--the plastic drum had many holes drilled through the sides and bottom. The purpose of the drum was to receive the water directly from the sump and then allow it to disperse into the larger area underground. The 4x4x5 foot hole was filled (around the drum) with round gravel. Some kind of landscaping cloth was also placed over the gravel, then a layer of topsoil, and then the sod was placed back on top. The finished product was rolled and now the ground is the same level as it was before. 
Even if the water is slow dispersing into the subsoil, the dry well can receive about 250-300 gallons of water before it overflows, if it ever does. I anticipate that my yard erosion problem and sidewalk damage problems are now over. George and his assistant placed the dirt that was taken from the hole in various locations around the foundation of my house (at my request), where the ground had settled and too much foundation was exposed. He did not charge for this extra service.
It took a good half day of work for two men to do this job, and heavy equipment was used, and all materials including landscaping cloth, 2-3 yards of gravel, plastic drum, pipe fittings, etc., were all included in the job quote, which I thought was more than fair, in fact, a bargain.
According to Angies List, My Personal Gardener also offers plants for 25% off for members, so I am having George put in some plants for me in a larger landscaping project. I am trusting that it will go just as well. I have not been acquainted with this George and "My Personal Gardener" before this project, but I feel fortunate to have found him.

"We have used them for 20+ years and are happy with them"

"Outstanding Irrigation System Installation by Linx Outdoors!" We recently had Linx Outdoors install our irrigation system, and we couldn't be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, Kyle and his team were professional, efficient, and incredibly tidy. They left no mess behind, and their attention to detail was impeccable. The system itself works flawlessly, and we are thrilled with how smoothly everything operates. If you're looking for a reliable and top-notch service, Linx Outdoors is definitely the way to go. Highly recommended!"

"We received 4 bids to have an irrigation system installed in our yard.  Rainmakers price was in the middle of the bids.  We selected their best residential system, the ultimate.  This system includes stainless steel rotors and a solar sync device which monitors our on site weather to adjust the system to most efficiently water our lawn.  Keith explained his system much better than the other bidders.  The installation took 3 days in hard clay.  The crew was very professional.  The trenches initially looked rough, but were tamped down very well.  With 2 weeks of watering, you could not tell where the trenches were.  Our lawn is beautiful.  Very pleased with the system.  Keith has visited twice to be sure we had no concerns or questions about the system and to be sure all rotors and sprays are covering their areas properly.  He has also phoned once to see how we liked the system.  We made the right choice.  Very pleased.

"This company was great to work with. They are very responsive and got the work done as described and they were prompt. They are very professional and someone always answered the phone when called. I bought an Angie's list deal for 15 man-hours for $549. This comes out to $36/hour. They got about 1/3 of the yard done. I a little disappointed that they weren't able to do more in that amount of time, but we have a big yard so I understand. The work they did was very nice and our front garden never looked so good. They were quick to get it done too. Probably within 1 week of my purchase they were out here doing the work!"

"The project went better than I had expected.  
Over the years I've suffered through, itinerant cowboys with chain saws, and tank drivers with bucket loaders doing yard work.  Frankly, I wasn't looking forward to this fix.  Our small 26-year old front yard had begun to look like a British Golf Course.  Sink holes and high spots had developed to the point where the mower couldn't handle it any more.   I had anticipated a complete re-do of the entire front yard...  
WOW - was I surprised by how little needed to be done to actually fix the problem.  Brandon has a keen eye and a surgeon's ability to do only disturb the bad parts and leave the good parts un-touched.  The result, in this case, was only a small portion of the yard was affected with amazing results.
If you're looking for a company that does really good professional work and pays attention to ALL the little details then this is the place to go.
