$964.00/hr!!! This company is part of a scam along with property management companies to overcharge and falsify charges... to tenants upon move out. We were charged for GARSC “checking a fan which was functional.” We we’re also charged 4x for trash removal just written in different words. I am filing a formal tenant complaint with the management company as I have all the required documentation (receipts for trash removal of large objects, receipt for professional move out cleaning, witnesses prior to move out and photos of a completely clean house), but I also think GARSC should be called out for falsifying items on the repair list and being a part of this effort to rob property tenants. It’s Criminal.read more

Oh Man - GARSC to the to the rescue.
We had a break-in at a rental property, and they were the only ones who could... accommodate us last minute.
Even with the last-minute booking, they were SO careful and did such an amazing job that we decided to have them finish the rest of the work on that rental property. The did baseboards, shoe molding, paining, cabinet refinishing (and didn't have to move out the end date), door repair (interior and exterior), screen replacement...I'm sure I'm forgetting something.
They worked so quickly, and when they were done, ohmygosh. It looked fantastic. Cason was able to figure out exactly what I wanted even though I am a TERRIBLE explainer. We are SO happy with their work - we'll be using them for literally anything they'll accept going forward 😀read more

I've used GARSC for a few projects on my home and I've always been pleased. We had them replace the sod in my front... yard about a year ago and just recently had them come out and replace my fence. Their tech, Narciso, helped us on both occasions and did excellent work. Our grass still looks amazing a year later and I only wish I had them come out to replace the fence earlier. It looks absolutely beautiful now! Thank you so much to GARSC and Narciso for always being so responsive and easy to work with!read more

I initially reached out to GARSC to work on on my new home. We ended up going a different direction, but the... suggestions and responsiveness that they gave me was incredible. This made me use them to spruce up my condo that I needed to sell. They were responsive, professional, and when I had to move my scheduled appointment last minute, they were very accommodating. I highly recommend.read more
