    Greenwave grass
    Farshid M.

    My irrigation system was developed over years and I could not figure out how the previous owner layout the pipes and connections. Also I had some cracks in main pipes which resulted in waste of water. I contacted Ruben and he accepted to work on my project. He is super knowledgeable about the subject and I was enjoying talking to him about different aspect of my project. He designed the irrigation system for me, the pipes, valves and controllers. I have more than 70 trees, rose gardens, shrubs, and thousands sqr feet of grass area. We have ended up having two separate controllers, and around 20 valves to support the whole area. Now I have different schedules for my Avacado trees, flower trees, rose gardens, ... Ruben was super helpful in the whole project, providing the expertise and knowledge to implement the system. And also he has a ton of contacts for other related work that you have down the road. I am extremely satisfied with his performance, knowledge and collaboration and I highly recommend him for your project!

    New fence and trees. What a difference!

    Very rare in today's world. Somebody who knows his business, is ethical and professional with a reasonable price too. Ruben Sotelo of Azaleawood Landscaping is the best I've encountered so far. I got several quotes to install "instant trees" into the barren backyard of the home I'm selling. Needed to block the busy street to the rear of the house. Most bids came in high with a vague "One, two days, maybe three" for installation (or no installation at all). Others kept saying, "What about this tree? What about that one?" instead of advising me of the best low maintenance, fast growing tall tree-hedge to plant in a narrow space between a cement patio and a fence without damaging either one. Ruben came out, knew exactly which tree would do the job, hand picked the largest ones, delivered, installed, fertilized and watered them all in two hours from when he started (which was on time, as promised).

Noe Pablo was the most thorough in messaging through the Yelp app, so my husband and I chose him. I had 2 medium-sized fruit trees I needed to transfer from my parent's home in Southeast San Diego to mine in North County. I took pictures and he gave us a very reasonable price. We also decided to also add another service to take out our palm tree. There were a couple of mishaps such as: The day he was scheduled to take out the palm tree, he was a no-show and my husband had to call him an hour after he was supposed to arrive. Then, the day after that incident, was the fruit tree transfer. He and his team forgot to bring their dolly. Thank goodness my Dad had one so they borrowed it, but now we have the burden in taking it back. Despite these mishaps, Noe was very knowledgeable and professional in his mannerisms. The day of the fruit tree transfer, he and his team arrived in a timely manner, was efficient and did a great job overall. We were very pleased and will definitely use him again if we have another project.

He was the only one who detailed every item involved in the bid, including update of irrigation. I've had issues in the past with bids for other projects that I assumed included the little details but didn't and then I had to pay extra. Michael's bid included every detail in writing that you would assume would be a part of a new lawn job and it was very reasonable. He also showed up on time for the initial appointment! His crew was great! Their work was very detailed and clean. The job was done within three days and all of the work area, including the driveway, was cleaned up. They even noted my falling-apart fence gate so Michael gave me a very reasonable quote and they did a great job fixing it for me. There were a lot of details for after-care and I've texted Michael multiple times to confirm. He texts back quickly and I never get the impression he's annoyed (I've sent a lot of texts!). I almost wish I had more yard renovations so that I could hire him again! I did discuss a whole-yard mulch job and will absolutely hire Michael when I'm ready for that. No more getting multiple bids for future yard renovations. I'll just call Michael.

Our extensive project included driveway removal and replacement, patio reconstruction, construction of steps down to our pool, comprehensive planting with irrigation and lighting, and installation of multiple fences/gates. We took our time evaluating contractors and obtaining multiple bids before selecting Michael. He offered the best combination of price and expertise by a significant margin. During our initial consultation, Michael provided excellent cost-saving suggestions that we ultimately implemented, helping us stay within budget without sacrificing quality. Throughout the project, Michael was exceptionally easy to work with. He was highly responsive and accommodated mid-project design changes without hesitation. His installation team exceeded our expectations--they were professional, friendly, and hardworking. They maintained a clean worksite at the end of each day and were consistently respectful of our property and our need to access it during construction. If you're planning a landscaping project, I highly recommend Pacific Landscaping and Maintenance. We couldn't be more pleased with the quality of their work and the professionalism they demonstrated from start to finish.

    TLDR: Promises were kept, crew was good, requests were addressed, problem was solved and charged a…read morefair price. I was suffering from a large water leak somewhere on my irrigated hillside but was unable to locate the exact source. I contacted two irrigation repair companies for quotes. The first failed to keep their appointment. However, Olivio showed up for their free on-site inspection in about 30 minutes. From the inspection (with all water disabled at the main) the conclusion was this was not an irrigation leak but likely the water main and I was given an appointment and a time (one, maybe two days work) and cost estimate. Olivio was able to make it a day earlier than scheduled. The team arrived, soon located the actual source of the leak (a 2" main pipe). They dug it up, located a crack in a PVC pipe Tee joint, brought in some upgraded repair parts and installed them with improved pipe pathing around another 2" pipe in the same area. Once the leak was solved we walked around the property and verified everything was working properly. :)

Jose and the team spent essentially the entire day diagnosing and remediating the problem. They performed drain scoping, hydro jetting, extensive root removal, repaired damaged sections of the main drain line with PVC, added new drains/catch basins, restored drainage flow, and repaired/cleaned up the surrounding area afterward. What I appreciated most was that Jose took the time to explain what they were finding throughout the process and helped distinguish between immediate necessary repairs versus larger optional improvements. The amount of root intrusion uncovered was significant, and the team worked extremely hard under difficult conditions. The pricing for the work completed felt fair given the amount of labor, troubleshooting, excavation, and repair involved. I also appreciated that they approached the situation practically rather than trying to oversell unnecessary work. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the professionalism, communication, and quality of work performed and would recommend Olivio for drainage and irrigation-related issues.

    Holy smokes these people work hard!!…read more I had a mess in the front yard, but the back was insane. Ficus trees that were huge and dense (couldn't walk under or see through) with one encroaching on the house. Palms that were sprouting little palms growing where they shouldn't, and weeds...omigosh, the weeds were just depressing in how quickly they sprouted up during one rain, and they were _everywhere_. Plus, in several places, the irrigation was broken. Just looking at this mess was stressful. Mr. Martinez showed how the dense growth of the ficus -- no sunlight, no air -- caused the leaves to be mossy and generally unhealthy. He made other helpful observations during the initial walk-through as well. In the end, his crew needed only two full days (one day plus two half-days) to clean it all up. ALL the weeds: gone...including the ones that tried to masquerade as trees. All the bushes: neatly trimmed. The big ficus trees: neatly cut back and airy (by an arborist). The palms cut back. (And the grossly-overgrown saguaro palms in front, removed.) Dead trees removed. Mulch and wood chips in front. Plus, being that Mr. Martinez is a general contractor, they got a painter to paint the shutters requested by the HOA some time ago. Just a stunning amount of work. Two days. And now the back is almost like a Zen garden (minus the sand and rake) in the feeling of calm and peace that it inspires. Not cheap. But holy smokes are they good.
