    We hired simply elegant landscaping to work on some irrigation issues we were having in our backyard. When it rained the water would collect and it was eroding at our back pool house. It took him a year to complete the job and I use the word complete loosely as half of the work he did eroded away because he did not know what he was doing. When we reached out to him he said he really had no idea what he was doing and that he just hoped it would work. He offered to bring more dirt to fill the erosion that he created but he never did. This project cost me over $21,000 and will cost me at least another $5,000 to work. I had someone come and look at the work he did and they said everything he did was all wrong. I was told after the fact that this was a common issue with Jimbo and he does not fix the mistakes he makes. You will end up having to hire another contractor in order to fix it. My goal is to help others not get into the position I am in and to also hopefully recover some of my money so that I can hire the right person to fix this mess he made. This is 1000 times worse than how we started this project and dangerous. You will see grass on the photo. The grass seed he used never worked. We paid for extra seed.
