Did stonework for us. Arrived on time, did excellent work at a reasonable price, Highly recommend. Too bad I can't post a photo. read more

Carlos previously repaired a broken sprinkler line so I contacted him to look at a sprinkler zone that would not shut off. He responded quickly to my request for a quote. He arrived at the scheduled appointment and diagnosed the problem to a faulty valve. Due to the way the valves were originally installed many years ago, he recommended that the four valved in the irrigation box be redone . We agreed on the price and made an appointment for the work to be done. He and he crew were again on time and completed the work and showed my the the zone was fixed. The area were the work was done looked like the way it was before they started. Very happy with his work and will continue to call him when needed and will recommend his services to anyone that needs sprinkler work to be done. read more

Fantastic work by Carlos of Merlos Landscaping! Prompt, attentive, and great workmanship. He fixed an irrigation leak at a competitive price. Will definitely call on him in the future if needed. read more

Very professional. Did a great job on a unique situation. Excellent communication, fast and clean installation. Would work with them again!

We got three different quotes for installation of a new drip irrigation system for our garden and for repair of our existing sprinkler system. Carlos from Merlos Landscaping offered a competitive price and was very responsive. He gave us an estimate the same day he came out to look at our garden and was able to fit us in for the work by the end of the week. Some of the other companies I contacted were slow to provide quotes and were booked out for several weeks. Carlos and team were courteous, professional and fast. They did a fantastic job on our irrigation system and sprinkler repair. I highly recommend Merlos Landscaping and would be happy to work with them again on future projects. read more

Installed new lawn. Merlos gives reasonable estimates, but delivers sloppy workmanship and cuts corners. Will not hire him again. The lawn had dead spots after 1 week; (not a watering issue.) The sprinkler heads were installed too low. The border is sloppy and haphazard. They re-used old materials where I couldn't see. Poor communication, lack of responsiveness to customer, and "that's-how-it-is" attitude. P.S. In fairness to him, he agreed to repair the dead spots, but I decided not to do it fearing that the way they work, they would surely damage the gopher mesh underneath., causing even bigger problems read more

Carlos was awesome. We needed a leak fixed in our front yard irrigation system and he did an excellent job. His pricing was very reasonable, he was very responsive and professional. Thank you Carlos! read more

Merlos Landscaping - Line repair - Gardeners Near Me

I highly recommend Merlo Landscape for landscape works. 5 stars in "yelp" helped me to choose them. I enjoyed working with Carlos and his team. They are price competitive to two others and did the great work of planting 31 Toyon shrubs in 15 gallons pots along the fence, which will block the view from the driveway/walking path toward our property. Those shrubs will grow fast and cover the fence height within 4 years. They met our specification of planting those shrubs in 30" diameter holes. Since my property has cray soil, I asked them to use my jack hammer which helped to reduce their working time. They completed the work within 2 days. I will ask them for my next project, too. read more

Merlos Landscaping - Toyon shrubs in 15 gallons pots planted - Gardeners Near Me

We chose Merlos landscaping for our newly bought house in Palo Alto. Carlos Merlos came across as a very transparent and hardworking landscaper. He designed our landscape plan and worked diligently with his entire hard-working and professional team to deliver the completed project fast with perfection. Our garden looks beautiful and I cannot wait to enjoy my evening cup of tea admiring it. Highly recommend for anyone looking to re-model their landscape. We will continue to work with Merlos for any of our future projects. read more

My husband and I were on the lookout for a landscaper for some time now and came across Merlos Landscaping on Yelp. Carlos picked up right away when I gave the business a call for a consultation and the rest is history. Carlos and team have been nothing short of amazing as far as maintenance goes along with a landscaping project we embarked on for the front of our house and backyard. Bear in mind, our front/backyard was in pretty bad shape with the drought, bad soil and nonexistent grass our two dogs destroyed. Long story short, Carlos was efficient with the plan, contract and started the project immediately. Carlos and team finished in 3.5 days and I couldn't be happier with the results. Carlos was also very attentive with the work and took care of our dormant irrigation system at no extra cost. We are also looking to replace our fence on one side of our house and will be working with Carlos for that future project. It has been such a pleasure to work with someone as professional and thoughtful as Carlos. I would highly recommend him and his team. read more

Excellent experience with repair of my irrigation system. Carlos had someone to my house and fixed the lines within 24 hours of calling him. Would highly recommend for a fair price and good work. read more

We had a water hammer issue whenever our irrigation turned on. Carlos was able to diagnose a faulty sprinkler valve that was causing the issue. Once he replaced the faulty valve the issue was resolved. He also helped with some preventative work to help make repairs easier in the future. read more

This was from a few months back, I called Carlos to diagnose my sprinkler repair. He eventually determined the issue was the sprinkler controller (wiring was loose, doh!). Although I offered to pay him for his time, he refused. Great guy, will definitely call again for future issues. read more

Carlos and his team were super responsive, quick to begin the job, communicative and thorough. I'm definitely going to work with them again in the future. read more

Had them to come out for yard cleanup on trimming all hedges, tree, juniper bushes and clearing weeds and the dumping of everything. They were here on time, respectful to property. Nice guys overall, worked hard. Beautiful job and will be quoting on sprinkler, soil and sod. I definitely recommend them. read more

Carlos and his team were great to work with. They gave fair pricing and were always punctual during the work days. They are great problem solvers and professional in dealing with issues happening on job sites. I would highly recommend their service. They came to replace broken valves, broken pipes, and installed efficient irrigation system. read more

We hired them to redo our irrigation pipes. Carlos sent a kid who knew nothing and was just ripping out the old tubes and putting something in that did not make any sense. Maybe he is good for small repairs.. We had tubes hanging out and we had to look for others to fix the mess he left. Just hiring based on yelp reviews does not seem to work any more. read more

Leaking sprinkler system. Merlos Landscaping responded very quickly and fixed the problem - replacing two valves - at a very reasonable price. A+. Highly recommended. read more

Carlos responded to my Yelp query promptly. His bid was slightly higher than competition, but well-worth the difference. He understood what I wanted, was willing to deal with minor changes, was on-time, finished the job fast, and CLEANED UP neatly when the work was finished. He promised to correct any issues that came up and responded to my email for a small problem the showed up a couple of weeks later. Definitely recommended!!! read more

Glad I found these guys - Jose stopped by and did an excellent job at fixing broken sprinkler heads, replacing a valve, and troubleshooting the entire system. He uncovered a few items that I didn't even know were broken and fixed them all on the spot. He was very courteous, efficient, and knew what he was doing. The system is functioning like a clock and I highly recommend Jose (and Merlos Landscape) for similar type of work. read more

I called Merlos for my mom, who had just lost her husband, and need help with her backyard for his memorial. Wow! So impressed with the service! Showed up on time for his initial appointment and has kept his monthly and sometime weekly appointments ever since! His work is top notch! Highly recommended! read more

Special thank you to Carlos and his crew today. They showed up early, which I was happy for and started working right away. I needed a 75 trench dug along my backyard fence, 2 ft deep and maybe a foot wide. Then, they inserted gopher proof wire inside the trench and covered it all back up. Hopefully, this will keep my neighbor's gophers from coming over to my side of the fence. Carlos' crew did the work in 2 1/2 hours and also took debris off to the dump, which had not been planned for. read more

I contacted Carlos after getting quotes from three other companies for a relatively small sprinkler repair job. His quote was much lower than any of the others. He and his assistant showed up when he said they would and took care of the work efficiently and quickly. Because of that, I hired them for a much bigger job (installing sprinklers and a drip system in a new part of my yard), and again got what I paid for and more. The two new irrigation "zones" are working perfectly and were expertly adjusted so I didn't have to do a thing after they left. They even did a great job cleaning up after themselves. read more

On a major repair of my outside sprinkler system (front, back, and side yards), Carlos did a superb job. He fixed faulty valves, repaired sprinkler heads, extended the system to areas not receiving sufficient coverage, and had the system working like clockwork. When some home construction trucks on my street broke some of my sprinkler heads, Carlos came out and repaired them. He provided an estimate on all of his work, and met his estimate. Carlos and his team members are knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend him and his team. read more

Carlos is prompt, respectful and obviously loves what he does. He showed me everything he was fixing and explained the issues well. I couldn't have asked for better service. Will definitly call him again - just the kind of people I want to be working with! read more

This the cheapest garden after I compared with others. And he did very clean and tide. I decide to let him cleaning every month.

Carlos came out very promptly, exactly on time, on Labor Day morning. He did a great job, quickly figuring out the problems with our sprinkler controllers and repairing broken sprinklers and pipes. Beautiful work, done quickly! We'll definitely call him again! read more

Carlos and his assistant did an excellent job fixing a broken valve and sprinkler heads, also fixed some of the drip connectors. He also capped a few sprinkler heads to save water. He was on time and gave a reasonable quote for the job. I will call him again for any landscaping related projects. read more

Carlos was on time and gave a fair bid. I hired him to fix two leaking sprinkler pipes and replace two sprinkler heads in the front lawn. He arrived on time, did the work in a little over an hour by himself and tested the system. Nice guy, skilled, and highly recommended. I'll have him back to do some other sprinkler change outs (to drip system in flower beds.) read more

Carlos did a great job in fixing the sprinkler valves in our house. Our irrigation system uses poly pipes rather than PVC pipes, so it's a bit complicated with replace the valves connecting to them because of the fittings. Carlos replaced all the valves, moved them from in-ground to above-ground, with a short lead time after my first yelp messaging with him. read more

We called Merlo's Landscape for a sprinkler health check, timer reset and fixing some known broken sprinklers. Carlos responded the same day, and was able to fit us in the schedule within 2 days of coming out for the initial walk-thru. I found the price to be very reasonable for the work done. I also learned he has a few homes on the street next to ours under his care, and feel very fortunate to have found him for future work. He was professional, polite and nice to work with. I would recommend Carlos and his service Merlos to anyone looking for sprinkler repair, or other yard/plant maintenance. thank you Carlos! read more
