I've seen the work by Jason, and it does look great. Good enough that I got an estimate from Jason last year... I had 4 estimates, all for the same work. I made sure they all quoted the same plants, trees, and amount of rock and retaining wall.
Lowest estimate was $9K, then $12K, then $19K, and finally $23K. Quite a spread! No, Jason wasn't the highest... but he was 2nd highest. And I couldn't see what he was going to do for another $7-$10K that was going to be worth it. I went with the $12K bid, because the $9K bid wanted 50% down before they even started.
Wish I had went with the $9k bid now - they did a ton of work in our neighborhood - all great work, and all on time. The crew that did mine ended up doing a good job, but it took way longer than it should have, and caused a great deal of frustration. However... for $7K I'll take the frustration.
