I'm sitting in my backyard and can't believe how good it looks. Micah and his team went above and beyond. Tiffany is a great communicator and on top of everything! Augustine is so patient and explained everything thoroughly to us many times! Guillermo and Christian (and all the guys) worked so hard and did such a good job on the concrete, the grass, and the sprinklers! They were clean, respectful, and efficient! Micah was SO patient and answered all our questions and addressed all of our concerns Good communication and great customer service is hard to find these days and Barnyard Specialties nailed it!! We will definitley be using them for all our future projects. I wan read more

While they were quick to respond and did send someone to provide an estimate for front yard maintenance, their prices are absolutely ridiculous. My front yard is about 400 square feet. They insisted I needed weekly maintenance despite the fact that I have been getting bimonthly service for over 20 years. They then came up with a monthly fee of $245! If I wasn't so disgusted at the ludicrousness of the quote, I would have laughed out loud thinking they were surely joking. read more

Professional, punctual, and a good price for the work delivered. I can absolutely recommend this business! read more

Barnyard Specialties - AMAZING job. Friendly, professional, punctual! And the price was right for the quality work delivered - Landscaping Near Me - San Juan Capistrano, California

Excellent response time from Barnyard Specialties and owner, Micah David, was very personable and very thorough in his assessment of our non-performing waterfall and the possible reasons for its not functioning. Absolutely no pressure in moving forward with repairs but offered several options for service. Made our choice two days later and install date quickly set with professional follow-up re ETA concluding with punctual arrival of Micah on prearranged time/date. Installation was smooth with explanation of process succinct and understandable. Micah even made a few additions to the new motor/pump without any extra charges. Terrific work and terrific experience! read more

Called Barnyard Specialties to help us address a water issue we were having inside a storage room. The building is an old house that was converted into a commercial retail space. The concrete in the rear area was poured over the wall weep screed so water was slowing being absorbed into the wall and creating a mold situation inside. Micah from Barnyard met me onsite and he spent a lot more time than expected measuring and talking over options. Micah was very knowledagble and found creative ways to remedy the situation while still considering our budget. During the design conversation he made quick calls out to his subcontractors to verify costs and timing so everyone could jump in and tackle this project as a team. I've been a contractor in San Diego for 40 years, have run crews and worked along side many other long-time trade professionals. I was impressed with this initial meeting so much we hired Micah and his team at Barnyard the next morning and we couldn't have been happier. The pre-planning we did and coordination from the start made the entire process run smoothly to the end. We ended up removing all the existing concrete that was poured too high and sloped toward the building. Removed more than 8-tons of dirt. Sawcut the exiting slab tight to the wall for a good look which required removing 36" of stucco to get the big sawblade tight to the wall. Re-stuccoed the walls with a new weep screed and installed several new in-ground drains and down spout connections. big jobs, small jobs all add up to many small details, if someone pays attention to all the details you have a winner. If you're looking for a job to be completed right the first time and working with happy, pleasant people, look no further than Barnyard Specialties. Thank you Micah and your team for working through our small but tough situation. read more

This company is A#1, very kind and listened to my concerns. But with a minimum charge of $300.00 they were too much over my budget for trimming a 6' Japanese Maple. They would be better for larger projects. read more

Barnyard Specialties provided spectacular work. Micah was responsive, reliable and timely in getting a large project done on a quick turnaround. They're weekly maintenance service is always reliable, proactive and professional. I have used Micah and his team for several client's homes and each time I receive back positive reviews.

We couldn't more happy with the work of Barnyard Specialities! They were extremely professional throughout the entire project. Their team moved very quickly, but also did very good work. Ava's design looked amazing and the rest of the team brought it to life in very short order. We highly recommended Barnyard! read more

This review is a long time coming. We really needed to rehab our front yard by enclosing it due to the fact that our son is on the autism spectrum and one of his main issues was impulsively leaving the house. We wanted it to be low maintenance so we chose pavers, turf and easy to care for plants. I had a design done but Micah and team executed it amazingly and made suggestions we worked into it. Micah was always communicating and explained the process step by step and also the costs involved with each step. Never would I have though that much care had to go into drainage! You can bet I was thankful for that this past spring with the rains. The most impressive part of the experience was the crew. Every single team member is highly skilled in their trade and friendly. Sometimes I find myself missing passing them in the yard. Every close of day of the project they made sure that the sidewalks were clear and the road in front of our property was free of debris before leaving. Our neighbors were very appreciative. A year later and the yard is still beautiful - loved and used often. People still slow down to check it out as they walk by a few times a week. (I've caught them on my camera!) it has given us the security of knowing we have an extra layer of protection for our son that will be a space to enjoy for years to come. If you have an outdoor project, stop scrolling other listings. Call them Ava and Micah will be the best decision you've made! read more

Awesome job done by Micah and his crew!! There was an unforeseen issue with my project. I was impressed because Micah kept his crew there to remedy the issue free of charge. He wanted to make sure the job was done right. He also did some irrigation for me and programmed my rain birds that was not on the bid. Crew was nice and cleaned up after the job was done. Well done! read more

Micah and the Barnyard Specialties team are amazing to say the least. Started out with me just needing a new company to handle my monthly yard maintenance service because I was tired of the typical blow and go I was receiving into hiring a company that truly is setting the bar into what full a fledged company should do while maintaining my home. Great staff that show up on time, new equipment and vehicles. It's just something I didn't expect and one of the reasons I'm recommending them. They just finished a full yard cleanup, went through all my low voltage lights and replaced them along with my sprinklers, new soil, plants, pebble, and so much more. If you're looking for a reliable company to handle your landscaping needs regardless of what you need they'll handle it from start to finish read more

Micah and the team are awesome! I reached out to have them give me a quote to manually move a 1000+ lbs boulder from the front of my house, through a small side yard, and place/position it under a tree in my backyard. My side yard was too narrow for a skid steer to be used, so the team had to coordinate manually moving the boulder. Micah came out 2 weeks before to assess the job and give me a quote. The quote beat out every other quote I received and Micah's explanation of how they would do it and gave me a ton of confidence. On the day of the project, Micah's team showed up punctually, they cared for my home (putting down plywood to protect my pavers even when I said I didn't mind if they got scuffed up), and were extremely patient with me as we adjusted the boulder into the specific place and orientation we wanted. Afterward, Micah and the crew offered to get rid of the pallets the stone had been sitting on for me (otherwise, who knows how long they would have been taking up space on my side yard). They also hosed down and cleaned off the front of my house without even saying anything -- these guys just go above and beyond. I am planning on re-landscaping my upper yard and removing/replacing a tree. I will with out a doubt be using this team. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. read more

We had Micah and his team to a full landscape remodel of our front yard and all I can say is WOW! If I could give them 10 stars, I would. He and his team were so nice, clean and punctual. The work that they did was fantastic. We loved it so much, we even added on a remodel of out front steps from brick to pavers and we are super happy with the results. Ava does the design concept and she is wonderful to work with. She listens to what you want and gives you great suggestions of what will work in your space. We would absolutely use them again if we moved. Highly recommend! Added some of the before and after pictures. read more

Great guys who are gung ho, quick to respond, and professional. We needed an old sofa gone; Micah quickly responded, provided a quote (very reasonable, I might add), and scheduled the junk removal on the spot. Day of, they were on time and in and out quickly. Plus, they observed social distancing and wore masks, which is great appreciated. They were also super friendly and down to earth. Would definitely contact them again for future junk removal. Thank you! read more

Their estimate was shockingly high. I don't know how they came up with those numbers. But it was more than double the other estimates I got.

Couldn't be happier with these guys. The team is awesome, reliable and thorough! They listen to what your vision is and make it happen. All without any up sale or surprises. My slope was just terrible to look at before these guys turned it around. Now I have a drought friendly landscape that makes my backyard look great and feel bigger. I highly recommend Barnyard Specialties. You will not be disappointed. Micah and Ava are very professional and enthusiastic which made for a great experience. Note: we had a subterranean drip system put in as well. Set it and forget it! read more

Micah is the best. Came out and diagnosed the issue of excessive splashing. Our pond service couldn't figure it out but Micah did. Simple adjustment. Micah didn't want to even charge me, but we wouldn't think of it. He is an expert at water features as well as landscaping, with a General Contractors license. He is now our go to guy. Thank you Micah. read more

After coming to my house to get me an estimate I never received a number, let alone an estimate. I gave my number and email and I never heard back from them even after a half hour of walking through my backyard for a quote. Instead I had someone else come and they gave me a quote with a price tag in 10 minutes. My backyard now looks great. Just surprised I never heard back from this company. - M read more

My parents had a leak with the irrigation system (so we thought). Micah came out to assess and it turned out to be a valve that had been left on. Micah did not even charge us for the trip. Not to mention was so nice and informative. I would highly recommend. read more

Micah and his crew replaced all my sprinkler valves this week and did an excellent job. This job was complicated and needed a major dig out to replace very outdated equipment. Micah had a great attitude throughout and adjusted quickly to several issues that were not seen before they dug out the old system. Yes I would use Barnyard Specialties again and I recommend them highly. read more

I couldn't be happier with our little front/backyard makeover. We repainted the house and needed to freshen up some planter boxes. Micah and Ava put up with my initial indecision and were able to give me some designs that exceeded my expectations. The crew was on time, left no trace and really delivered exactly what they promised and on budget. We couldn't be happier and know we'll have them back for some additional landscape work in the future. Our work included new plants, mulch, planter boxes, and installing crushed rock to complement our hardscape. read more

My mom and I have been wanting to do renovations to our backyard for years but it just was such a big project. We asked these guys to disassemble our hot tub and trophy case and haul some lumber. They ended up going above and beyond what we had wanted and we are so grateful. They cut down trees for us, took some extra stuff from our side yard up until the couldn't stuff any more into their trailer. You could say we are extremely grateful to have gone with them. Prices are super reasonable, we felt like we owed them more. I would recommend them to anyone. Super quick and professional. Our year long project we had planned is about to be done in a few weeks thanks to the young gentleman that helped us out, Thank you barnyard specialties !!! read more
