Look no further for quality landscaping, Ray and team are the best. Not only was Ray extremely…read moreresponsive, his estimate process was very easy. I know nothing about landscaping or plants and I asked for something low maintenance that also looks nice. That's exactly what was delivered. We had 2 dead trees removed, 1 replanted, 4 large butchered shrubs removed, 4 replaced, 6 flowering shrubs planted, and limestone border around the flowerbed and tree. Of the many quotes I received, Blue Knight was the easiest to communicate with, and the price was great. Ray took my vague ask and his team delivered beautiful landscaping that upped the curb appeal of my home. The job took approximately 6 hours and every single shard of old mulch, stone debris, and displaced dirt was cleaned up. The crew even trimmed the small boxwoods we chose to keep which I'm thankful for- I forgot to ask for that and now they look "new", too. Five Stars to these guys, we highly recommend!

Where do I start, David was hired to do job for me. We agreed on a price from the estimate he…read moreprovided. The job was supposed to take 2 days turned into 2 weekends. Not only was our yard ruined by him and his crew, he had to come back to fix an issue that his guys messed up on. After the issue was "fixed" a few days later the concrete he poured and repaired is now cracking. After reaching out to David to see what could be done, he said that he could not give me a partial refund due to him giving me a good price. I did mention to him that my spouse does not want him or his crew back since this whole fiasco. I gave him the opportunity since he claimed to be a legit business to come to a solution but I was only then accused of short changing him when both the bank and my self verified the cash that was given to him. I still don't understand why nothing was not said then why bring it up when I send pictures of the cracked concrete. Shady business man if that is what you want to call it. Stay clear!!

WATCH OUT. RIP OFF. David tried to charge me $500 AN HOUR++ for BASIC LANDSCAPING. What really…read morebothered me about this transaction was that he gained my trust by doing a few other projects at a reasonable rate before trying to massively rip me off. I asked David to spread some rocks on a small area of our yard. I have done such tasks many times myself, including buying bulk rocks from Whitlesleys, and had a good idea of the cost of materials and amount of time the job would take. However, I was busy and wanted to turn over all my landscaping needs to someone else. The job should not take more than $150 in materials and four hours of work for the small area behind our pool I had in mind. It took no special skills. David's price? $2,150. $2,000 for labor alone divided by 4 hours is $500/hour. I had someone else come out and they are going to do it. Their quote? $280 for the whole project. Compare that with David's $2150 for the same project. This was after he had already come to my house and done a slightly high priced but good job mowing my lawn and spreading my mulch on two visits. I told him we planned to hire him as our main person for weekly service on account of the decent job he had done on the last two visits and he seemed to think we were now captives and he could gouge me for price. When I confronted him on his price being out of line he had no explanation. I promptly fired him from his weekly job for trying to rip ups off and not being trustworthy.

A complete remodel with 2 retaining walls, new irrigation, sod, zero-scaping, a flagstone patio, hot tub, rebuilt deck, pergola, kitchenette, bar top, and electrical. Andy did an excellent job managing the project, paying attention to detail, and staying as close to schedule as possible. He gave us sufficient time after the job was complete to test the final product, make fixes, etc., before taking full payment. He went above and beyond to make sure to stay within budget and give us a beautiful final product. Before going with Andy we got quotes from 2 other landscapers. Rockview Landscaping's quote was in the middle. We didn't go with the cheapest option because Andy felt more trustworthy and willing to stay close to our vision. Additionally, the cheapest quote came from a larger national landscaping firm. It felt impersonal. We wanted to help a local business instead. The pictures speak for themselves. We included some before pictures as well so you can see how awful our backyard used to be, and how complete the remodel is. The slope in our backyard was very steep, making the lawn space completely unusable. The deck was rotting and painted over with an ugly green color. We cannot believe how much flat lawn space we have now, and the patio, hot tub, deck layout is beautiful and functional.

But we do not have the time right now and I can promise they won't settle easy. The floors never cured right and there is just no good way to "fix" right. New flooring will eventually need to be laid on top. This was a waste of time and money. Very, very expensive. Anything other than their solution would have held up longer.

I would stay clear from someone with such little accountability and respect for other people! You owe me a windshield Sean!

Sean was very responsive to our questions during the design/quote phase, and all the way through, even now after completion. Both Joshes were out here overseeing progress nearly every day, keeping our sprinklers set to keep our new grass and plants alive during over 100 degree heat for weeks. The crew worked sun up to sun down (this was a new construction home on an acre lot, total landscaping needed), but always left the site clean once they left for they day, including blowing the dust out of the street and driveways. I cannot say enough good things about this company! Everything owner Sean told us would happen, was completed when he said it would be completed. The entire staff pays attention to the smallest details. Thank you, Sean and crew, for such a great experience from start to finish!

For the past two years, we've had nasty flash floods that have left us collectively about $30,000…read morein debt, even with flood insurance. The house is built on a hill, and when a heavy rain hits us after a dry spell, bad things happen. When the last payout finally came in, we'd planned to earmark a big chunk for fixing the drainage once and for all. Enter Keep Austin Landscaped. Even though our house is small and they usually don't do such small jobs, they came up with a great plan to reroute the water from uphill and guide it around our house to prevent flooding. Initially they suggested an inexpensive galvanized wire and rock wall to keep the water from flowing into our house, but later decided that a better, solid concrete retaining wall would do the job better - - for just the same price. And then, of course, COVID happened. Nevertheless, the KAL team was still ready to work with us as long as we gave the workers their distance, which of course was only fair. I really appreciated them coming out and risking getting sick to do that work, especially when we were really scared that any time now we might flood again. Our uphill neighbors initially agreed to allow us to install a French drain on their property to allow water to drain into the alley behind our houses instead of into our house, but then reneged for reasons we still don't understand. We offered to adjust planning to take any specific concerns into account or seek mediation, but they insisted that we not do anything on their side of the hill. Of course it's difficult to route water away from a house down hill if you can't do anything before the water gets there! The nice folks at KAL tried several times to speak to my neighbors in both English and Spanish on our behalf, and in the end our neighbors allowed them to complete the plan by extending gravel drainage along the shared fence. We've just had the first heavy rain after a dry spell since they've been out here, and not a hint of flooding. Working with them has been an absolute joy, and we heartily recommend them for anyone with a landscaping or drainage issue.
