I had a situation where I couldn't repair a busted sprinkler head where it broke off its riser. It was also next to concrete which didn't make things easier. Johnny came out and was able to quickly diagnose the issue and explained to me how the repair would go. Very straightforward and honest guy. I won't hesitate to contact him again in the future. read more

Johnny Olivas Gardening - Busted sprinkler. - Gardeners Near Me

Note: review is only for quoting. I had a fairly large gardening/landscaping request/project and had reached out to several businesses on Yelp. Johnny replied fairly quickly, and we were able to set up a time the following day for a visit. He came at the exact requested time, introduced himself and his colleague, and we started discussing what the project would be. While walking the yards and pointing out what needed to be done, he was very honest and straightforward with me. Majority of the cost would be labor (completely understandable), but haulaway and materials would be included, which was definitely a boon for me. He provided timelines on when he'd be able to start and when he'd be able to complete the project, plus some of the background on when it comes to proper green waste disposal (it requires going to separate facilities, unfortunately). I'm still deciding on next steps, but Johnny was professional, funny, easy-to-talk to, and give me an estimated quote before I left. read more

I had grass and a few hedges planted. Johnny and his team helped me finally realize my landscaping goals for my front yard. I highly recommend johnny olivas gardening. read more

I love Johnny. He helped us last time when we had a Gardner replace our sprinklers and the other company completely messed it up. I highly recommend his business. He's fast, responsive, affordable and most of all he will fix your problem in minutes. read more

I highly recommend Johnny and Rob. They replaced my old sprinkler lines, added drip lines for my planters, replaced the main valve, filled my planters with lots and lots mulch, and set up my small grass potty area for my aging dog. The two of them are always on time, work fast, and very meticulous. They make extra efforts to get the job done right and always take into account the end results I was trying to accomplish. At the end they even offered to come back in a few weeks to check on the system. I will definitely hire them again when I have more projects. read more

Johnny Olivas Gardening - And this is his character. - Gardeners Near Me

Made an appointment, and no one showed. Not a phone call, no message, nothing. Very disappointed after seeing good reviews.

The family has been using Johnny for a solid 3 months. My husband compared him to other gardeners on Yelp, and we are glad he chose him. He has been amazing! Johnny and his team always come the assigned day and what I appreciate about his work are the little details. For instance, it has been really windy in Corona. He secured all the plants attached to our wall, he ensures enough water is distributed to all parts of the lawn (and we have a big lawn too!), all the trimmings are neat and tidy. The grass is cut the perfect length. Definitely give him a try! read more

This morning, I sent an email requesting a quote. Their response was within minutes. Unfortunately, my area is out of the boundaries they service. I really appreciated their quick response which demonstrated their professional customer service to not waste my time waiting on their quote and focus on looking elsewhere. Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. There has been times businesses just fail to respond to potential new customers. read more

I hired Johnny Olivas Gardening about 9 months ago. It was the best thing I ever did. We recently redid our backyard and needed an EXPERT to maintain it. My wife searched Yelp and gave him a call. We hired him on the spot. He continues to keep our yard looking great. He even caught a gopher that was ruining my backyard and repaired the sprinklers in my front and ALSO hooked up my front yard sprinklers to a timer. Thank goodness for Johnny and his brother. Price is great too! read more

Johnny Olivas Gardening - The weekly trim - Gardeners Near Me

From the moment I messaged the owner he made it a point to meet with me ASAP. He was honest with what he could and couldn't do. Unfortunately he was not able to offer maintenance in my backyard but explained why. He had valid points and ultimately only quoted us for the front lawn. He was professional and the gardeners came the day they were supposed to. I know he will begin work on our backyard once we get it to a state in which it is safe for his workers to do so. Highly recommend this company. read more

Professional work is good (a necessity) and yields desirable results. But really caring in one's work manifests entirely something greater. That's where Johnny Olivas comes in. He is thoroughly knowledgeable and utterly passionate about his art, and that's because he cares so much. Johnny's knowledge and understanding of home gardening care is undoubtedly a byproduct of his experience and dedication to his art. From the moment I met Johnny, I knew that I had the right guy for all of my homes' (yes, plural) gardening care needs. To boot, Johnny's work comes at a fair and affordable price... need I continue? If you need punctual, persistent, and profound gardening care done for your living space, then call Johnny Olivas ASAP. There is no other choice. read more

Johnny helped us with a one time cleanup of our front yard that was overflowing with weeds. He's super friendly, straightforward and easy to communicate with. Very detail oriented and patient in answering our questions. I wouldn't hesitate to call him again! read more

I've used Johnny's service for the past 6 months, and by far my lawn always beats the neighbors! Great to know that my gardener cares about my lawn, just as much as I do. read more

Johnny Olivas Gardening - Gardeners Near Me

Had a few issues with arrival but Johnny was communicative and provided fair time estimates. Once Johnny arrived, he explained what he would be doing and how long it would take. Once he finished, he explained everything and assisted me in how to use my sprinkler system. All in all a great job and a great service. I would recommend to anyone needing quality lawn care services. read more

Johnny and his helper were amazing. They did fantastic work on our home. We had a ton of weeds, the sprinklers weren't working, dead plants everywhere , our fescue was growing Bermuda, it was just a mess and in a couple days they really turned it around. Lots of integrity and good work. Even our bullmastiff liked him and he hardly likes anyone! You won't regret hiring him. read more

I've been looking for a good gardener since I moved to Eastvale. Very lucky I found Johnny on Yelp. He's not only a kind guy, but also very professional and knowledgeable. Definitely will do business with him. read more

We had been looking for a landscaper/gardener to put in a drip system in our back and front yards, and to replace our front yard with drought resistance plants. I messaged Johnny on Yelp and within 30 minutes he had responded and we set up a time for him to come out and give us a quote. After meeting with several other landscapers/gardeners we decided to go with Johnny as he was honest, professional, friendly and quoted us very reasonable prices. We hired him and we could not be happier with everything he has done and accomplished for us. He has always been up front with us and never charged more than the quote that he gave us. He and his crew are diligent and very conscientious of their work. We could not be happier with him and highly recommend him! read more

I was very happy in the beginning, but my acct was given to his brother and the service was horrible...cancelled my service as of June 30... hasn't shown up once this month (it's the beginning of June). No calls, no one even asking why I am cancelling...very disappointed read more

Called and was told to text my address. Said he would look up where it was and get back to me, even though he knew my area. He also knew my gardener disappeared on me and I was desperate, but he never called back. I texted to please let me know due to the situation of no lawn care for weeks. Nothing. No reply. Totally inconsiderate not to rely to the text so I can keep looking for someone. read more

We moved into our home in December and our front lawn looked like the amazonian rain forest. We hired Johnny to rebuild the lawn after a month of failed attempts to rip it apart ourselves. It took him a few weeks to finish the lawn and the result is beautiful. Unlike some landscapers who want to be in and out in a day or so for some quick $$, he really made sure he took all the times it needs and finished all the steps to eliminate as much weed as possible in order to keep the lawn neat in the long run. He also replaced the broken sprinkler system and eliminated a bunch of gophers that were living in our lawn. Then we decided to hire him for long-term maintenance and his team has been great on keeping my property neat. He is a cool guy who is very knowledgeable and his prices are competitive. The best thing about him is that he is responsible and trustworthy, you don't need to call again and again to get him to return and finish things. Even my other handyman who was fixing our house at the time approved of him. I highly recommend this guy if you need to get works done without having to watch over everything like a hawk. read more

Johnny is a very nice guy, he came on time as promised and finish the job with good quality, no mess. He had his mask on at all time during this extremely high temperature working thru my garden. Thanks read more

I have been using Johnny's service for a little over a year. Mr. Olivas takes pride in his work. He does a great job, Honest, Reliable and Affordable. I have referred him to several people and they have all been happy. A Very Happy Customer I am :) read more

The owner was on time and finished the job in 15 minutes. I just needed a sprinkler head replaced and all is well now! Friendly and fast!

A big shout out for Johnny for making the time to come out promptly on a busy Monday morning to address what was going on with my sprinklers. He quickly figured it out and corrected. Thank you for your good service which is so hard to find these days. read more

Sent an email via yelp and got reply within 30 minutes. Johnny called today and said he will be at my house in hour to hour and half but I waited 3 1/2 hours and no show neither a call. Not sure all the 5 star reviews are legit under his company name or friends and families making him look good. I wasted all the time waiting for him. This basically told me the kind of service I would have gotten if I would have signed up with him to provide weekly gardening. Stay Away from this guy. read more

I tried for months to get both the front and back looking good but couldn't get them where i wanted. They came in and did a clean up which did wonders. They come once a week and both the front and back always look great. Can't wait to have people over and show off their work this summer. read more

We started working with Johnny about June of this year. I messaged him on Yelp and he scheduled a consult the very next morning. He and his crew are AMAZING! our lawns were in rough shape and he came in with some recommendations to improve the landscaping. He is very reasonably priced for the service you get and he is always responsive to our needs and questions. For instance, we needed a back shrub cut back and we had gophers, so the guys cut back the shrub and put gopher traps for us. His guys do a great job every week manicuring our new grass. For reference of service: he leveled out the front yard and redistributed the dirt to the backyard. He killed all the weeds that were overtaking both yards. He tilled both front and back yards and seeded. He installed a solar powered sprinkler system and fixed or existing sprinkler set up. I used to hate looking at the dirt/weeds in both yards and now I love the beautiful grass! Their work has transformed the look of our house and upped its curb appeal 1000-fold. If you're looking for a whole yard re-do or maintenance in the Chino area, these guys are the best, hands down! read more

I had Johnny come to my house for an estimate. I needed to add sprinklers for better coverage. He tested all the sprinklers and told me I did not need anything changed and that I simply did not have the times set better to properly water the lawn and saturate the brown spots. I was a bit blown away...he could have easily done some simple, but unneeded work for his benefit and named his price, but instead he just identified a simple problem that I could solve in 5 minutes. He even smelled the water as being a bit stagnate, indicating the last water was too long ago. He went on to offer advice about fertilizer and the types of trees I had, and better types of sprinkler heads to use when I replace the old ones. I offered to buy him lunch for all his effort, but he would not take my money! I am rarely impressed with anyone, but this guy was professional, honest, and knowledgeable. Any work that I have in the future...I will be calling him! read more

I contacted Johnny last Saturday regarding a sprinkler repair quote. He was able to come out just an hour after our phone call and repaired our sprinkler system that day! He swapped out and calibrated all the sprinkler heads and installed a new timer. Definitely an upgrade to my sprinkler system and all at half the price that I was quoted by other vendors! read more

We've been with Johnny over a year and love him! Every week he comes and makes our front yard and back yard look beautiful. Even with the drought and less watering, he keeps our property up! He and his "boys" are awesome and totally worth the $$. Great service! Very friendly! 100% worth hiring to maintain your lawn. read more
