He quickly made time to visit our property, assess what needed to be done, and provide an estimate. Just a few days later, Lauchlan and his crew came to clean and spruce up our yard, and they did an excellent job. They worked quickly and efficiently, while still paying close attention to detail. Lauchlan clearly takes pride in his work and runs a trustworthy, professional, and reliable business. We were very pleased with the results and will happily hire them again!

D Garcia Landscaping completed a large fence project for us and we are extremely happy with the…read moreresults! This was a technically challenging project involving a steep hill and very mature redwood roots. Standout qualities of this company are: 1. Ease of quoting process Before coming out in person, they were able to give us a ballpark price based on dimensions, fence type, and site images. This allowed me to decide whether to move forward and I thought this was really respectful of my time. Then, Dago, the owner, came for the site visit and to discuss details. 2. No bait and switch In ironing out the details, there was some miscommunication about whether staining was included. Dago was able to meet us halfway with the price increase. This honest business style continued throughout the project and no change orders or unexpected price increases happened. 3. Detail oriented Throughout the project, we discussed details such as fence posts placement relative to tree roots, post height, etc. Dago was both available in person and by email via his assistant Maria. It was also nice to have responses confirmed in writing so that things were clear and there would be no bait and switch. 4. Personality Dago is a really nice person and I enjoy speaking with his about his geriatric dogs, etc. This also helped me not feel anxious about the project, because I felt that I could trust him. For this fence, we received multiple quotes. Two companies were in the $9-10K range, another was around $12K, and an outlier was above $20K. Dago's price was the lowest quote (with minute differences in material) and we are very glad we went with him!

Dago, Maria, and the crew were very easy to work with. Prices were reasonable and communication…read morewas very straight forward. They added over 600 sqare feet of pavers in addition to some mulch work. I would recommend them to people looking to updated their backyard.

We had a fantastic experience with Eli's Landscaping, working directly with the owner Edy…read more After getting multiple quotes, Edy stood out because of his professionalism, quick communication, fair pricing, and the time he took to answer all of our questions. Our project had a few unique challenges, and with an active dog, busy household, and a yard that was taken over weeds, we wanted something that is low maintenance but also aesthetically pleasing. Edy gave some ideas and even came out for an extra site visit to make sure we were aligned before work began. His crew was incredible and completed the entire project in just 2 days, instead of the 3 that were estimated. It included irrigation, flagstones, gravel, and sod. Edy was onsite throughout the project, keeping us updated, and was always available to answer questions. Everything went smoothly from start to finish! The final result exceeded our expectations. Our backyard is both beautiful and functional, and we couldn't be happier. We highly recommend Eli's Landscaping for any landscaping project and would absolutely work with Edy again.

4 stars for quality work. 0 stars for ethical business…read morepractices I hired Melvin and George from La Económica Landscaping after receiving a written estimate from their coordinator, Cindy, for work that included: * Garden clean-up & hauling - $1,375 * Mulch + small brick installation (combined) - $650 Total: $2,025 And a recurring monthly maintenance fee at $200 The crew did a nice job with the clean-up. Their labor and craftsmanship were good. However, the way this business operates is extremely concerning. Even though the scope was clearly defined both verbally and in writing, the owner later tried to change the terms of the estimate, claiming parts of the agreed-upon work were "mistakenly included." Throughout the process, there were multiple "gotcha" moments, surprise clarifications, shifting explanations, and attempts to downplay what was originally promised. Despite the written estimate explicitly listing a "mulch + small brick installation (combined)", the brick installation was never completed. When I followed up, they claimed it had been a "mistake" in the estimate and refused to honor that part of the agreement. Communication became defensive, taunting, and unprofessional, and rather than resolve the situation collaboratively, the owner sent a $300 refund before we had even reached an agreement, then canceled my ongoing maintenance service altogether. It's disappointing, because the work quality itself was solid. But their business ethics and communication practices are sketchy. They seem more focused on short-term profit than building long-term relationships or standing by their written commitments. They told me the brick feature would enhance the look of my garden. I guess I'll never find out. If you decide to hire them, make sure every detail is documented and signed. Otherwise, expect last-minute changes and confusion about what you actually paid for.

A concrete block wall in front of the hedge which was also in the back needed to be completed. I got three bids including one from Edy. I am so glad I worked with him and his team. Edy is so conscientious. He really cares about his work. He brought several great suggestions to the project which enhanced the result. This kind of thoughtfulness is wonderful. He made sure the concrete block wall extension matched the existing structure, was the same height, which was a better solution than what we originally discussed and added a french drain system to help with water run off control. His crew was very respectful of our property. They showed up on time, and got an amazing amount of work done in short order. I highly recommend Edy. He brought an experienced eye, value for budget and great ideas that I would not have thought about to make it all better.
