The owner of Hernandez Tree Service and Landscaping either used to be called or owns a company…read morenamed LandBoss. Although the company name either changed or the old company was shut down, the owner, Jonathan Hernandez, is not somebody I would want to do business with again. Below is my following review of company, formerly known as, LandBoss: Unless you are interested in a lengthy project that turns out looking like nothing it was promised to look like for the same amount of money, I would suggest using another company, if you can even call LandBoss that. Also, make sure they're qualified with recommendations! I used LandBoss (Jonathan Hernandez, the owner of LandBoss) to replace my fence, grade my yard, install a French drain, and lay down sod. The fence was done okay, still some areas that could use some attention. The French drain looked like it could have been sloped better but they assured me it was sloped well. I guess time will tell. The "grading" they performed was more or less rough up the grass and scatter new dirt. There was absolutely no real grading being performed. Mind you, he only graded the back yard, even though both the front and back were agreed upon. Jonathan also made promises that were not kept, like grading areas against my house to slope away from the foundation. I ended up having to rent an excavator and do the front flower bed myself over two weekends. I had requested Zeon Zoysia sod be put down, but he installed Zenith Zoysia, which has a thicker blade and lighter color. I asked if it was the correct grass and he assured me it was. I later find out it was Zenith Zoysia, informed him, and requested he replace the incorrect sod with the correct sod. He tells me he was willing to pay for half of the grass and perform the installation and removal of the incorrect sod free of charge. I figured that was the best I was going to get so agreed and ordered the sod myself this time. Fast forward a week or two... I have 6 pallets of Zeon Zoysia (~ $1750) delivered to my driveway on a Thursday morning in June/July. Jonathan assures me he is going to have workers removing the old sod on Friday and laying the new sod on Saturday. After contacting Jonathan several times on Friday, nobody showed up. Saturday morning, I wised up, rented a sod cutter, gathered some friends (all professionals that make a minimum of $40 an hour, so much more expensive workers), removed the old sod, and installed the new sod in a weekend. Jonathan and crew never showed up, with the exception of one worker who was about to get dropped off on Sunday but was gone as quickly as he arrived. So I was not only stuck with the incorrect sod, but was paying several junk removal fees, equipment rental, labor, and for the new sod. Mind you, it's not like this occurred over a week... it took Jonathan and team ALMOST 3 MONTHS to pull off this nightmare. This is because, and he won't tell you this when you ask him, but he and all of his workers (not employees, just friends and family) work a 9-5 job THEN show up to perform any work. So everything done is later in the day or on the weekend. And he can't keep any dates he promises, every conversation is pushing the milestone date further down the road.

PAVERSCAPE RESCUED OUR DRIVEWAY…read more After a disastrous attempt by another company (which is now hopefully out of business) that ruined our driveway overhaul, we found PaverScape to completely redo the project. David Lugo and Amy Phelps run a fantastic company with employees, not sub-contractors. They have been in business since the late 1990's. They have completed such large projects as the Towne Center hardscape ("everything you walk on, sit on, and drive on"), to small residential projects as well. They were great fun to work with, and their entire crew worked to completely redo our driveway. The precision exhibited by their crew was impeccable. They are both engineers and artists. Our new driveway has garnered many compliments. They are in demand, so it might take a while to get to your project, but they are well worth the wait. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND you hire PAVERSCAPE for your next hardscape, pool, or landscape projects.

The day the driveway was being sealed it began to rain and instead of stopping, the crew continued in the rain. As a result, the Polysand never set properly. The owner had explicitly stated that the conditions must be dry for the proper setting of the material. The next summer weeds grew through the pavers. We contacted PaverScapes to have them reseal the pavers. That summer came and went. All the while, they were promising to come fix it. The first excuse was he would redo it when he had another job in the neighborhood. We spoke to him when he was here in the neighborhood and he again said that he would fix it. That was in February 2024 and we still haven't had any resolution. We are still waiting for him to stand behind his word.

This business was recommended by a neighbor. I also sourced 2 additional estimates from other…read morecomparable companies. A couple improvements would make this business exceptional. I would categorize my experience with this business as mostly positive with a few frustrating issues. The owner is exceptionally knowledgeable when it comes to trees, academic actually. And far superior to the other companies I interviewed. I would say this was the most prominent reason I hired him. I found his crew to be extremely professional and very efficient. They all knew the order of business for the day and what the responsibilities/expectations were of each team member, even when the boss wasn't there. They worked hard and did not waste time. I would also like to add they were respectful of my property and cognizant of not damaging it with the equipment. The areas I believe need improvement are related to communication and follow-up/-through. My service was split into 2 parts and were conducted on separate days, tree removal and stump grinding, respectively due to utilities marking. Zero issues with the first day The second visit was delayed, however, and that wasn't communicated to me until the crew didn't show up. It was explained to me only when I called them after they were already several hours late. They did show up promptly the second time. The second day did run late because they had to start late which wasn't an issue for me, but it did contribute to the second issue. By the time the stump grinding was finished, the batteries on the blower were dead and the street and driveways were not able to be cleaned up. It was quite messy and bad enough that I would have gotten a ticket from my HOA. I was assured before they left that they would swing by first thing in the morning to blow them clean. I had to call 2 more times to get someone out to do it and then they still left the driveways a mess. I had to go out and sweep my driveway myself, which is an issue because my capabilities are limited. Lastly, my contract included following-up service to remove a treatment wrap on my tree six months later. It never happened. I had to go out and do it myself. Would I hire Southern Roots again? Yes, but with some caveats. I would probably interview some competitive companies first to see what they had to offer. I would also expect to have to deal with the above issues and know I would have to stay on them to follow-through. I would consider the issues I dealt with as minor and irritating, rather than a show-stopper.

But our recent storms necessitated repairs to be done, so I began the search for someone to repair said fence. What I discovered was, most larger companies don't appear to want to waste time on a small repair. One estimate came in at $2500.00! Enter SmithWorx Construction. I made a general query on Facebook and was directed to James Smith. Put in a request on a Thursday afternoon, James came out on Monday to do the estimate, and Wednesday by noon the job was done to my satisfaction. Good crew; cleaned up after themselves; no debris left around. Would definitely recommend them and will use them again when the need arises.
