The owner John and the supervisor Uriel were very accommodating to all my questions and changes. My front and backyards are transformed.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience with Kelly Green Native Landscaping and the…read moreowner, John, was so frustrating and unprofessional that I feel obligated to warn others. In brief: we hired John last year for a full landscape project, and it turned out horribly. John was essentially never present during the installation, and it quickly became clear that his workers had no idea what had actually been agreed on in the plans. Plants were substituted without any discussion, and several existing bushes that were specifically supposed to stay were ripped out and never replaced. They even tried to dig up Agave from another section of my yard, replant them elsewhere, and still charge me for the price of "new" plants. After everything went sideways, I could not get a hold of John to address the issues. Eventually I left a 1-star review out of sheer frustration. Only after I posted the review did he respond--saying he would only come out to look at the problems if I took the review down. Wanting my yard fixed, I obliged. John came out, saw the condition of the yard, and even acknowledged that the plants Kelly Green installed looked nothing like the original plan and that he didn't know why they were all dying. We agreed that his company would return to make things right. Then...nothing. Weeks went by with no contact. After multiple prompts from me, he finally sent a "proposal" to fix the yard--one that included over $4,000 in labor, even though we had already paid once and the work was not delivered correctly the first time. I told him I was willing to pay for the cost of new plants, but I did not feel I should pay labor again for his company's mistakes. He said he would revisit the numbers, but again, after weeks and multiple follow-ups, he never responded. I ultimately hired a different company to fix the project--at less than half of what Kelly Green tried to charge me just for labor alone. For reference, John apparently thought it was reasonable to charge $65 to plant a single 5-gallon plant. I acknowledge that Kelly Green has many positive reviews, and those were the reason we hired him in the first place. I truly don't know why our experience was so dramatically different. But based on what we went through, I cannot recommend this company. In my experience, they did not stand by their work, they did not deliver what was agreed upon, and they were unresponsive when asked to address clear mistakes. Proceed with extreme caution.

Note, that in fairness to Rafael, he didn't do any work for us. This review is based on the fact…read morethat twice he failed to show up as scheduled to give us an estimate. The first time, he never texted me to update his timing, but instead after I called and messaged him, he finally called 1/2 hr after he was originally to arrive. At that point, it was too late for my schedule. Trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, we re-scheduled for 2 days later with a wide arrival window. This time - again, he didn't show, call, message, or respond to mine. I understand that things can come up and interfere with plans. However, not communicating that to a prospective customer is something I have no patience for. When I twice arrange my schedule to accommodate his, his no-show/no message behavior signals both a lack of professionalism and a total disregard for my time. It's rude. Maybe his business is that good he feels he can do what he wants. To me, this is a huge flag for other prospective customers.

But Rafael said he could get everything done in one day, including mulching a big sloped area. And he did! Rafael and his cousin arrived on time and went to work. Their positive attitude was amazing, and they talked and laughed while working at a fast pace, making the tough job look like a walk in the park. They'd check in with me to ask how it looked, and if I wanted more done. Communication was great, and I was able to give the thumbs up or ask them to take things back a bit more, to my personal preference. They hauled away all the debris, and the yard looked the best it had in years! Why did I wait to have this work done when we were selling, and I couldn't enjoy it? My mistake! LOL Don't hesitate to call Rafael, as you'll be very pleased with the outcome at a fair price.

For the second job, they arrived on time, started promptly, and did a terrific job installing that vinyl fence out front. The work was meticulous and the end result shows for it. Their rates are also reasonable in comparison to other contractors in the area, with similar fields of expertise. We will gladly be hiring them again for other projects soon.

The old concrete patio was cracked and lifting everywhere, there were deep tree roots, a rusted, disintegrated wrought iron fence and gate that were tied to chicken wire to keep from falling over, a concrete step right in the middle of the yard which was both a tripping hazard and divided the already small yard into two even smaller sections, and a small area around the back which was overgrown and unusable. My husband and I kept saying, "We need to do something about the backyard", but we had no idea where to begin. Sean was very generous with his time before starting the project, meeting with my husband and me many times to help us hone in on what we wanted. He listened to everything I wanted and everything my husband wanted and when we had a question or weren't sure, or when my husband and I couldn't agree on something like what type of patio we wanted, ie. flagstone, pavers, concrete, etc. , Sean would humbly make recommendations or suggestions and I can honestly tell you that he was always right. He knows what he is doing and the best decisions we made were when we listened to him...because he listened to us. Sean and his team created beauty out of nothing...worse than nothing...they first had to take out the mess that was there. Things didn't always go easily. With any project there will be unforeseen challenges, but HOW your professionals handle that is key. Sean is a class act and always took care of everything with complete professionalism and courtesy. Throughout the project Sean always let us know what to expect which helped smooth the way with our HOA and kept us in good graces with our neighbors. When it came to dealing with permits, inspections, etc. Sean knew what was required and we knew we were in excellent hands. He was responsive with emails, texts and calls, and in short, never ever left us hanging or in doubt about anything. Whatever project was being worked on: demolition, laying the conduits and drains, designing the patio, pouring the concrete, the precise layout of the pavers, installing a glass fence and gate instead of the rusty iron rail, creating and building a beautiful fireplace and seat bench from scratch, lighting and electrical, plants and softscape, even the design of the drains, etc., Sean found the right workers and teams for each job and every detail was done with care and to perfection. I cannot say enough good things. Choosing Sean and Van Slyke Landscape was one of the best decisions we've ever made. They transformed our backyard mess into a place of beauty and peace. Please see before and after photos.

I would liken no longer using this landscaping company to removing an infected abscess. There are…read moreso many things wrong with their so-called "maintenance", I wouldn't know where to start. Basically they are untrustworthy, neglectful, dishonest and incompetent. What they say they will do, is not what you will get, or they will just not do it. They charge over twice as much as other services and work far less hours than they state they will and do not give you the services that they charge for. Our yard was filled with healthy plants before we hired them, half died throughout the months they began, by the time we switched over to another service they had killed over half the yard and we spent thousands of dollars repairing the yard with another service. Our new service is extremely competent , they listen to what we need done in the yard and get it accomplished with care and knowledge. Terri was overall very difficult to deal with, she was moody and could be very nasty and rude. She would never take any accountability for her actions and negligence that lead to damage in the yard by herself and the crew. It took a long time to recover from how awful the yard looked after using them, they are just the worst service we have ever had to deal with.
