"I paid an excessive amount of money to replace the heating system. The sales rep gave us comfort that everything will be done right and the two experienced and fully licensed professionals will be doing the work and that there is a no-excuse warranty, 1 degree guarantee, and 10 years on both the service and hardware. It just so happened that after the install, I told the installer I smelt gas and to check everything. He simply waved it off and said it's fine, give it some time. I told AJ Perri multiple times that there is a gas leak and I asked them to rectify the situation. I called them multiple times to send someone to fix the issue immediately and urgently, but they refused to commit to any resolution and won't send anyone until the gas is turned off for the whole building. I explained that its a condo and that the unit itself in the utility closet has a separate gas shutoff valve. Knowing this, they refused to remediate the gas leak."

"Extremely disappointed in lack of service, accountability, communication and honesty. Based on good reviews in Angies List, we hired Madden to build a berm and plant 15 Arbor Vitae trees. Asked him specifically if planting in the summer heat was a problem, he assured us it was not. Within a week, two trees were dying. In less than a month, six more were browning and dying or dead. When calling Madden to address this he first stated we did not purchase the “optional warranty” on the trees. We quickly pointed out no such warrantee was ever mentioned and not listed in a single quote or email. In addition, every home and garden center provides a one year warrantee on trees and plants. After replacing one, he grudgingly agreed to replace four of the six dead trees and it took repeated emails and calls to get him to do that. A few others are not looking so good. To add to his growing list of double speak and inconsistency, he said we shouldn’t plant the replacement trees until the heat was over – a complete contradiction to what he told us before (see paragraph one). Even though we bought replacements for the dead trees he refused to plant with our own money, he wanted to charge us to replant those. We refused. I have used many local contractors for work on our home, some in the tens of thousands of dollars. I treat them fairly and pay on time. I have given many positive reviews here for my contractors and a few negative ones as well. My expectations are simple – value for what is paid, standing by your work, accountability for problems, and honesty. Madden Landscaping fell short in all areas. They are the worst company I have ever dealt out of dozens of contractors. See the pictures attached. Would you pay nearly $2000 for a row of trees that looked like this within 6 weeks? If you did, would you expect the landscaper who did this to stand behind their work? I have heard Angie’s List removes negative reviews for vendors who pay for advertising. I am also posting this on Consumer Checkbook, Yelp, Google reviews, and will be filing a complaint with the BBB."

"Michelle setup my appointment. She was polite and professional. She also asked the correct questions to understand the clog I was dealing with in the main line going out of the house. Fabian arrived onsite at the appointed time and day. Fabian surveyed all my plumbing line before starting the job. He took care of my clog in record time and charged a fair price. What pleased me the most was everything they said they would do they did. I will be recommending All Clear for any plumbing issues. Thank you All Clear. Terry Smith"

"It was a cold and wintry March day when I wanted my windows to sparkle, and although snow and a sick workman interfered, Jeff was good to his word and had my house sparkling for her photo shoot. Jeff assured me that, no matter what the temperature, his crew could do my enormous Queen Anne Victorian (62 windows) in a half day. He recommended removal of the screens to make the house look beautiful, and it was a great suggestion. We have original windows on the front, and they are 129 years old. The crew was thorough and gentle, and I was thrilled with the job. We cleaned the interior windows ourselves to stay within budget and simplify the prep, but Gem's crew did "in and out" for the kitchen skylight and five basement windows, as well as a few that the crew must have felt demanded their touch. I can't say enough for their good work and positive attitude, given that the weather was frigid, they were pulled to fill in for another crew, and I wanted all the screens to be labeled (I followed him and labeled them myself). I wish I had found them years ago, before selling the house, which sold in two days :-) And yes, they even honored an Angie's List coupon!"

FAQs for xeriscape installation projects in Trenton, NJ

Sprinkler systems aren't ideal for xeriscaped gardens because they can't effectively water around rocks and hardscape elements. Water often runs off or evaporates before reaching the soil. Instead, a drip irrigation system is a better choice, as it delivers water directly to plant roots, ensuring efficient water use and promoting healthy growth.

Your xeriscaped garden requires minimal yet essential maintenance. Regularly inspecting and adjusting your drip irrigation system, along with occasionally adding mulch and gravel, keeps your garden operating efficiently. Routine tasks—such as pruning, aerating, fertilizing, and soil testing—promote deep-root development and sustained plant health. This ensures maintenance remains low while your garden preserves its water-saving design. 

While the initial cost of xeriscaping can be similar to or even higher than traditional landscaping, it often saves you money in the long run. Xeriscaping reduces water usage and requires less maintenance, lowering your ongoing costs. In drought-prone areas, these savings can make xeriscaping a more affordable and sustainable option over time.

Xeriscaping has potential disadvantages that include high initial labor and a departure from traditional lush landscapes. It demands extensive planning and careful installation, which increases upfront effort. Additionally, the less conventional appearance may not suit every homeowner’s taste and could impact curb appeal in areas where traditional greenery is valued, though its water-saving benefits remain advantageous.

Yes, xeriscaping can increase your home's value, especially in drought-prone areas. A water-efficient, low-maintenance landscape is attractive to buyers looking to save on water bills and reduce upkeep. While the exact increase in value varies, xeriscaping often enhances curb appeal and marketability to potential homebuyers when you’re selling your home.
