Austin Gardeners is hands down the best service my wife & I have ever received. Quality product (truly, it's unmatched), superb teams, & they go out of their way to make things right and fair. Manuel is a self-made business owner who first was a landscaper himself for years until he decided to open up his own shop and do it the very best. If you're reading this you know how difficult it is to find quality companies and employees from said companies to show up when they say they will, honor their commitments to contracts, and deliver quality service & products. This is what Austin Gardeners brings to the table with them from beginning contract discussions to delivering of services. Do not look anywhere else. We sunk the most we've ever spent into something not including our home into our backyard (hard scape & landscape) and it was daunting, scary, and uneasy. We finished the experience adoring our yard and these people. Thank you Manuel & Austin Gardeners!

Zoysia grass installation. Previously this was a dirt patch :)

All that I can say is wow. Seriously stunning work from Austin Gardeners. We wanted a pergola + modern sitting area for our backyard. Joseph came by for our initial consultation and knew exactly how to deliver on our landscape vision. We paid $500 for the design work, which included an itemized breakdown of everything that would be needed to complete the project ($250 of this later went towards the project total). We decided on a cool, new walkway for our front yard, and a raised covered patio area for our back yard. Due to the 2021 shortages, the lead-time to get on their schedule was rough. We first contacted Austin Gardeners in late spring 2021, and the first available slot was in September 2021. The crew arrived on time and got to work right away. They were friendly, professional, and seriously skilled. Everything was created on-site from scratch -- the raised steel planter beds, the concrete pads, the pergola, everything. Midway through the project, we decided to add in new Zoysia grass and have gutters installed, too. The crew lead and the guys were flexible and very responsive to our feedback. Even after the project was completed, the team followed up on most of our fit-and-finish issues. My one critique: we received a very sad-looking lemon ball sedum plant, which we reported a couple of times. It is still sad. Was it worth the wait overall? I would say definitely yes. All things considered we're very happy with the outcome and are enjoying our new outdoor space so much. We highly recommend Austin Gardeners for your next modern refresh project!

We had Austin Gardeners completely redesign our backyard just in time for the holidays. The crew worked tirelessly to provide what we requested and went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. I still cannot believe this is our back yard; it looks just like a picture from a magazine. Now we don't even have to worry about watering and mowing the back yard! They installed a new fence on top of newly installed synthetic grass that is pet friendly. They also planted all new beds which included uplighting that is gorgeous. Manuel Soto was on time and stayed on budget. He really made everything super easy and fast for us. He has strong communication skill and showed amazing leadership throughout the entire project. He was amazing to work with and I cannot recommend them enough! If you are ever considering them, call them right away! it is 100% worth it. Austin Gardeners (512)845-1531

Like many fellow Austinites, our landscaping was a complete mess after the winter storms this year. I searched Yelp for reviews of the best companies and came across Austin Gardeners. This was one of the best calls I could have made. We are completely thrilled with the service, pricing and quality of the work that they completed this past weekend. Our needs were simple - mostly ground cover and some low plants. Also to help clean up all the oak pollen and add some nice mulch. Joseph came out for the estimate and I had it back within a few hours. The crew arrived on time and ready to work. Marcos was the team lead and he made sure that every detail was checked and rechecked. They communicated with me regularly throughout the process. Joseph, who was the original contact, came by to check on the team and also on my satisfaction. I felt like a valued and respected customer. Given the state of my yard every spring, I am sure that I will utilize their services in the future and also recommend them to the neighborhood.

I was looking for a custom planter bed for my front yard and found Austin gardeners. The workers came early and prepared on the day of installation. The team communicated very well. They worked hard and did a great job. The custom metal edges are sturdy and modern and the plant selection was wise. I had some crushed limestone added to the planter which matched the front of my house. Towards the end for plant installation, the team got my OK on the look before installing new plants. They were very patient as I made a few adjustments. I felt calm the entire process. The team stayed within the estimate which I appreciated. They cleaned up after and left it looking brand new. I highly highly recommend Austin Gardners to anyone looking for landscaping design work.

Joseph and his team were amazing! I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with our front and his vision and design turned out perfect for our needs and budget. They were quick to start, as well quick to finish the project and I love the outcome! I would absolutely recommend Austin Gardeners for your landscaping projects.

Very happy with the Landscaping work they did for us. The crew did an excellent job from start to finish, including the clean up. In addition we found the office to be very professional, they were timely with quotes and responses and had no trouble making multiple changes to our quotes based on our evolving needs. Austin Gardeners installed a front yard path as well as added metal trim to our existing flower bed. Everything looks great, we look forward to working with Manuel and his team for additional projects in the future.

Austin Gardeners did a top-notch, high quality job with my modern cabana build. It's a very large structure with an outdoor kitchen, living, and dining areas, a bar, privacy slats, storage and walkways. Any time I had a question, the answered quickly and if there was even the slightest issue, they said, "Don't worry, we'll make it right " Manuel and every crew member were helpful, and responsive. The time line slipped a little, but only because of the omicron surge over the holidays and material shortages. I was kept informed at every step. They absolutely stuck to budget, and the only extra cost was with additional requests of mine with agreed pricing beforehand. They are not the cheapest game in town, but their quality is worth it.

After installing our pool in 2023, I've had constant issues with dead spots in my back yard,…read morecausing me to explore the idea of installing artificial turf. I did a lot of research on artificial turf companies servicing the Brushy Creek area and after some shopping around, came across Umesh and KG Lawn Care. After receiving some ridiculous quotes from some of the "bigger" artificial turf companies, offering a lower grade of turf for a substantially higher price, I went forward with the project with Umesh and KG Lawn Care. Umesh took on my project of installing approximately 1000 sqft of artificial turf, metal edging, and black star gravel around some cypress trees. Roughly a month before starting, I expressed to Umesh my desire to have the project completed in time for our family's annual crawfish boil, which he assured me he would fulfill. I can't say enough positive things about Umesh, Lucas, and their crew. As we neared the date of my family's party, Umesh assured me that he would push to make the deadline, even with unpredictable central Texas weather. Umesh not only kept to his promise in finishing the project in time for our party, but also knocked it out of the park! The artificial turf looks incredible and instantly became my daughter's favorite place to play. Umesh and his crew put a level of detail into the project in ensuring every aspect was perfect for my family. As pleased as I am with the project itself, the most noteworthy aspect I want to highlight in this review is how Umesh does business. In a world where so many are looking to cut corners, charge more, and provide less, I found that Umesh is a man of immense integrity who keeps to his word. Umesh delivered on his promise to ensure my yard was immaculate for my family's party, but most notably, his promise on pricing. A day before our turf was set to be installed, Umesh was notified by the turf company that the turf we picked out was no longer available (with zero warning). Umesh was forced to upgrade the turf at a difference of nearly $800. I offered to split the difference with Umesh but was told: "Nah man, it's all good. I like to keep my word and pricing. It's not your fault." This really struck me that Umesh was willing to eat $800 in order to keep his word with me on pricing. KG Lawn Care exceeded my expectations and truly helped me complete my dream back yard - The quality of work and character of Umesh will have me recommending him and his company to all my family and friends!

Although the…read moresize of the project was small, it involved several elements such as concrete, landscaping and irrigation work. Criselda was quick to respond and set up a time to come over and take a look. She was understanding, thorough, and quickly provided a quote. After much thought about our budget and our needs we ultimately ended up changing our vision on her! She quickly supplied quote #2, scheduled our contract meeting, and outlined the phases of the project. Her and her team were extremely communicative during the entire process. Always available, always on time, and always engaging. This was very much appreciated on our side. To CJ's Landscape & Design... Thank you for helping guide us through the concept and construction process, and always being ready to accommodate our needs. We love our new space! PS I'd also like to add, her and her team have been just as available after the completed work to answer any questions we had!

We were very impressed with how professional and detail oriented she is through the whole process. Her team that did the work were hard working, polite and did great work including clean up.

We are so happy with the job done we've already hired her to repair and stain our back patio. Could not possibly be happier!

It took the office 4 attempts before they got the quote completed. Final quote was still done…read morewrong, but it wasn't until the job was almost done that they brought it up. They did a great job with my sod installment but a terrible one with my irrigation repairs. Took them three weeks to finally come out and at least attempt the irrigation repairs, after failing to come out on previously scheduled time slots. Using said bad quote they wormed their way out of finishing the installation repairs. Upon inspecting their halfway completed work, it seems that while he was trying to repair the line, he damaged the main water line with one of his cutting tools. What was a fairly minor leak, now became a main line fix. This of course would require even more work and they wanted to quote me for more money. I fired them right away and decided to bring in one of their competitors. Buyer beware of this company if you plan to do any irrigation work with them. Only reason they get two stars is because the sod installation was well done. Update: See below owners response. This is what you will get if you deal with these guys.. gaslighting. They made all the mistakes, from the bad quotes to the accidental line cut. They damaged my line, not a root. Instead of fixing his mistake, they wanted to charge me. As you can see, roots are not as bad of a problem as they claimed. Like I said earlier, buyer beware. If the owner is doing this, best believe it's the culture at this company. Since you want to play games, I got time today Tina. (Photos now added for receipts)

I needed my garden beds tilled and passion vines cleared out. Spring is here. Of course the quote was extremely fair and I jumped on it. Along comes my hero Nik to supervise the job. Nik and his team went above and beyond and then more to help me out. He even planted my flower seeds for me in each bed and then watered. All passion vines cleared and he had them do additional weeding and cleaning up leaves. I would never trade the entire team for anything. They are the absolute best. You want a perfect yard, let the Ground Guys of Pflugerville make that dream come true!!
