Get matched with top lawn and garden sprinkler system repairers in Thorntown, IN

"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.

"Kyle and the crew were great to work with. Very affordable for the work that was done. The irrigation crew was fantastic as well. They worked during the rain and did not give up. Daniel and his crew (irrigation) worked very hard and got the job done in 1.5 days. Now I don’t have to drag my portable sprinkler around my house any longer. Thanks to Linx Outdoors!!"

"So far we have had one treatment, and it went great. Their staff was very responsive as I was trying to get this scheduled. They completed the first treatment in a timely manner and were very thorough in treating the entire lawn. The weeds started dying within a day or two, and now my lawn looks much better."

"We had the aeration done first since we were having a watering system installed. We asked that y'all come back to do the overseeding. Your company & employees were very nice & accommodated our schedule just fine

"We have been using Mr. Scott Myer regularly for our lawn mowing and he is very good. We like his cheerfulness, promptness and reliability. Their price is fair but we don't remember the exact cost."

"It went very well. The guys were very professional and I am very pleased with the work they did. They were very friendly and worked very hard until the job was done. 100% would recommend. I am looking forward to continuing business with their company!"

"Only diagnosis was done and money taken and the Third party was more interested in selling to upgrade than repairing the system. Waiting to be repaired in the coming days."

"Fast, professional, and reasonable rates."

"Wow!! I've dealt with many lawn service companies and by far this is the most professional company I have hired .. the lead person attitude was top notch .. the price was reasonable considering what I wanted done . Definetly recommend this company"
