I contacted Yard Birds to come to my house to fix a sprinkler system. I was misinformed by another…read morecompany as to what the issue was. Yard Birds owner took the time to explain to me where my problem could actually be coming from. He promptly sent his crew to diagnose the issue. Jack and his partner arrived and worked hard digging holes to locate the broken wire. Jack clearly explained to me my options and his plan since the broken wire was determined to be either under a large tree root system or beneath the pool deck. They came back the next day when they said they would and ran wire, covered all the holes, and checked the entire system out. You could tell they were being really respectful of the property and trying their best to fill and level the ground to make it look good. They even used some of the dirt to go to an area where they noticed erosion and filled that in too. I have used Yard Birds multiple times in the past 25 years. They are a dependable quality company with a reputation that you can count on.

My wife and I hired Yard Birds in 2021 after meeting owner Brandon Rekemeyer. He gave us locations…read moreof job sites, and after driving past several of their job sites locally, and hearing a recommendation from a friend, we liked what we saw and heard, and hired Yard Birds for an extensive lawn, landscaping, and tree removal job on our property. Brandon even allowed me to do some of the work myself, and when I punctured a drain on my property that I was unaware of (oops) Brandon recommended that we pull up the whole pipe and replace it. Brandon replaced the pipe and installed it and didn't charge me an extra penny for my mistake that cost his time. Brandon and his crew finished the job to our satisfaction, and beyond. Two years later in 2023 we hired Yard Birds again to do a makeover on our pond. This required more large tree removal, much excavator work, and great skill in shaping the outer edge of our 1/2 acre pond into a heart shape (I know, cheesy:). I am personal friends with the owners of two equipment rental places that Yard Birds uses regularly, and both have great working relationship with Brandon and his company. I would recommend Brandon and Yard Birds to anyone interested in professional and highly experienced work.

My back patio is still a mud pit. When I asked them to come by and check it out he said he would but never came and I haven't heard back since. This wasn't the first time he stood us up without a warning either. As far as the retaining wall, my 80 year old grandma would've built an equal quality wall as they did. I asked them to build about a quarter of the wall but after I saw them working on it decided to finish it myself. I paid about 20% of what they charged me to build the rest. Bottom line, SUPER expensive, poor quality work, poor quality customer service. Look elsewhere.

Once we decided to choose this company, there was a disconnect in communication between the secretary and Hector.

Despite the setbacks, his staff did a wonderful job. They are hardworking. They removed our old patio and built a new one, replaced the sod, added rocks around the perimeter, and added pavers to form a walkway. I'd recommend Hector's Landscaping.

I had a great experience with Fernandez Landscape Contractors! My project involved many facets of…read moreimprovement to the appearance of my home and it's surroundings beginning with the removal and replacement of a thick, old cement and gravel patio which was replaced by beautifully crafted travertine tiles. Off the patio are gravel wings topped by tasteful stepping stones which conceal catch basins and drainage pipe to the street. The bushes along the entire front of the home were removed and replaced by new beds of assorted plants and landscaping rock. The new bushes are large, full and healthy looking, not your typical teacup sized fare commonly seen in new landscaping projects. Thick rock and gravel walkways along these areas were removed and new ones laid with stepping stones to the driveway. The job was embellished with many extras, mulch placed in extra areas, sod put down where grass was sparse, minor woodworking adjustments... I've gone into this detail to outline the project blueprint and the obvious experience the owner, Ernesto, possesses to pull it all together and I'm not particularly easy to work with or impress. The assigned crew had an extremely strong work ethic and pride in themselves and one another. The same folks came every day for the entire project and are marvelously in sync with one another. They were helpful and good natured, always willing to explain a task or process, each one a delight. They came one last time today to fine tune the job and move things back into place. Again, above and beyond is the best way to describe each person's performance. They earned a monetary token of appreciation and truth be known, their worth and the outcome of their work would easily merit three times the amount. This was a good experience and the price of it was fair. If the boss says it'll be done, it's done and we all know that's usually not the case.

Want to be told the job is complete before anyone's walked it with you, then handed a request for…read morefinal payment only to find more wrong than right? Want every concern explained away: vines won't grow on cedar, fruit trees belong in the shade, a walkway cracking apart after three weeks is "normal"? Want "topsoil" that's actually crushed granite? Want electrical wiring wrapped in electrical tape and held up with a rusty nail? If that's the experience you're looking for, Fernandez Landscape Contractors Services may be the company for you. For anyone who wants specifics, here's my experience. I hired them for a full backyard renovation and paid every phase in full and on time. The finished work did not match the signed proposal. The trellis was specified as cedar, built in pressure-treated pine. The fire pit was built with no drainage and holds water like a basin. Rear grading directed water toward the parking area, the exact drainage problem I'd hired them to fix. Pop-up drains they installed were run over and buried rather than fixed. The custom metal gate was installed without a hasp for over a week, while they repeatedly tried upselling me a motorized opener instead of just finishing the gate I'd already paid for. When a hasp finally went on, it was plastic on a steel gate, held with mismatched fasteners. It broke three days later. When I questioned the fruit tree planted in full shade, I was told it needed shade. When I questioned the pine trellis, I was told vines won't grow on cedar. Buried drainage was brushed off as "punch list" or warranty work to be handled later. Then there's the walkway. Installed weeks earlier, it was already cracking through, with sinking stones and a low spot that pools water in the rain. I was first told cracking mortar is normal, then that cracking flagstone is normal. When I mentioned I'd hired an independent mason to evaluate it, he became irate and said he wouldn't accept another mason's opinion on his work. I had it evaluated anyway. That mason found the base inconsistent with the contract and unsound, requiring a full redo. At the walkthrough, once it was clear he wasn't leaving with a check, he got louder and more belligerent, insisting the "scope of the job" was complete. He got in my face trying to intimidate me into digging up buried drains myself, as if finding them proved they worked. I walked away. He later texted that walking away was unprofessional. I told him yelling in my face wasn't an explanation. He still denied running over the drains, with a shredded one lying right there on the ground. Days later I received an eight-page "Final Project Completion Technical Verification Report," self-prepared, including a "Professional Engineering Opinion," concluding his own work was flawless. Grading your own work isn't independent verification. I requested the engineer's license info and the electrical work's licensing info multiple times. I never received either. When I later raised the trellis and grading again, paid-for add-on work he'd quoted in writing, he claimed he wouldn't address anything outside the "executed agreement." Apparently outside-contract work is fine to accept payment for, just not to finish correctly. The electrical work was interesting too: wiring wrapped in tape, fastened to a post with a rusty nail. I'm now paying an independent electrician to inspect it, since he never provided licensing information to verify who did it. If you need a basic sod job, he's your man. If you need anything as complicated as a straight line, you'll need to hire him and two more people to hold the ruler. Thank God I held the final payment until I inspected everything myself, because the job still isn't complete and I doubt it ever will be by him. Don't release final payment until you've walked every inch yourself. Pictures included: crooked fence, drainless fire pit, cracking walkway, pine trellis, "topsoil" that was crushed granite, the shredded pop-up and the rock-filled hole they used to "fix" it, fruit tree in shade, and the wiring.
