Tim is a con artist. He has no office, utilizes what he calls 'sub-contractors' to perform all his work, that he finds on Craigslist and hires to do jobs and doesn't pay them. So you will be in danger of having a lien placed on your home by his disgruntled employess, required to pay for just about the entire job prior to completion, and your calls will never be answered if you have any problems when/ if he completes your job.
There are plenty of reputable landscapers out there, find one who actually has an office and employees that have been with them longer than a couple days.
