THANK YOU! Appreciate the time, effort and incredible value they bring as a team -- every dollar was hard-earned by them and money well-spent. Miguel came to give estimate and walk through strategy, plan, timing to make sure we were aligned from the beginning -- and he made sure he and team could meet timeline I needed given some constraints on my side. He and his team are a true pleasure to partner and do business with, insightful and kind and deeply knowledgeable. I was really impressed and humbled by how much they can do in such a short time, all the more amazing given how high-quality and comprehensive their work is. I am so grateful to Miguel and his team and can't wait to work with them again, hope to work together going forward.

The real estate agent who represented us said the curb appeal, private vegetable garden & extensive lawn attracted multiple offers. See for your self how beautiful my huge old property looked. In my new home Garcia Gardening Services helped me reimagine the yard, planted trees, a privacy hedge & grass for the dogs. Because all these projects were big, I always bid the work with others. Garcia Gardening Services wasn't the cheapest, but they were always the best, reasonable, reliable & good at what they did. For all these reasons I am a Garcia Gardening Services customer for life!

From the beginning, he was reliable, responsive, and easy to work with. He arrived ahead of schedule, provided a very competitive quote, and clearly explained the work that needed to be done. The quality of his workmanship was excellent, and he paid close attention to detail throughout the entire project. What really impressed me was his commitment to customer service. As an added bonus, he even installed my Ring security camera at no additional charge. It's rare to find a contractor who goes above and beyond like that. If you're looking for someone who is professional, knowledgeable, punctual, and fairly priced, I would not hesitate to recommend Alejandro and Fifth Element Landscaping.

You have to get someone to come out, give their opinion, give a quote, agree on terms, agree on when to do it, and then when they come, they have to do what they agree to do. I have had bad experiences before when it comes to hiring contractors but thankfully, Fifth Element Landscape was not one of those experiences. Alejandro is very knowledgeable about landscaping and was also understanding about including some of my ideas. He answered all of my questions, showed up when he said he would, and did a great job. I am very happy to have hired Fifth Element Landscape for my project and plan to use them again in the future.

I am going to start this review with a preface about how this work was done as we were emerging…read morefrom the COVID19 lockdown. I probably was a crab, or I should say crabbier than usual. It didn't seem to phase this exceptional business. I feel like I hit the jackpot when I had Pasadena Garden Care respond to my call for help. Bryce went out of his way to ensure we had a great experience and as a result, we have hired this business to do our monthly maintenance. We hired Bryce and his team to help on many problem areas in our yard - including an area where a beehive lives with a cycle of very territorial bees. Pasadena Garden Care worked with us and wore bee suits to attend to our needs in this special garden. It's not just the bees. We also have a HUGE salcata tortoise that devours everything in its path. We have a fenced in garden where the bees are and Gamera tried to break in and devour my tomato plants, strawberries and most likely knock over a hive for some honey. The workers worked with our little monster to ensure our plants and "child" were safe. I am so happy we decided to go with Bryce and Pasadena Garden Care. I have only had an exceptional experience. In a world of mediocrity and disappointment, working with Pasadena Garden Care is truly a miracle!

He kept on emailing me to say " I'm gonna send you the estimate tomorrow by noon." Well, that was 2 weeks ago and he has not responded. He seemed very nice and acted motivated to work on my yard. It's a shame how some businesses act in an unethical manner with no honor or respect. I initially felt comfortable allowing this business into my home because we live a few blocks from each other *****Counter response to ARMEN's post***** There seems to be some discrepancies to Armen's response. He texted me stating " I will have the estimate ready for you tomorrow." If he needed more information from me, why would he text me stating he would email me the estimate? I'm not sure why he is mentioning city plans and plan checking. He is unlicensed, uninsured and unbonded. There is no way a city would give him permits because of his lack of credentials. Mr. Armen, before you start telling lies, Remember that everything is either digitally documented (i.e. text message) or recorded. Check out my text message thread from the owner. *MIC DROP!

My wife and I highly recommend these guys!…read more From the estimate all the way through to the end, they were great! Javier was awesome to work with and it's nice to see the owner picking up a tool and getting in there too. All the guys were knowledgeable and were very nice too, which makes it easy. Cannot say enough nice things about Javier and his crew. I would hope my contracting crew comes off this good. We had a very overgrown house, many years/decades. The bushes, hedges, and mainly the 100+ foot trees needed some serious work. They handled it great and took care of the neighbors properties too. I didn't have to walk through it all each day, it just got done and done to what I think is the right way. They put plywood where it's necessary to protect things and are careful when limbs drop. You can't even tell that they were here besides the yard, trees, and the property, looking great. It was a multiple day job, each day they all were nice, worked hard, and got it done efficiently. Everything they cut looks natural and not just trimmed without care like our other guys, it seemed very selective and not willy nilly. They all went above and beyond what we expected. They were not the cheapest option, but Javier seemed knowledgable, trustworthy, and like he could handle the job from the get go and estimate. They weren't that far out from the cheap guys either, definitely more, but I am so glad I chose this company vs just the cheapest. Other crews have "botched" it before and I don't think we will do that anymore. We will absolutely use them again and highly recommend them.
