    Day A.

    This is long overdue but wanted to say what a great experience we had working with MS Gardening. I initially got my front yard designed by another company but they were charging us way over our budget. We got several quotes from other companies and decided to work with Tony. He seemed the most affordable and worked within our budget. Tony was very easy to work with, professional, and provided great alternatives to certain projects. Our front yard was a big undertaking. We added a retaining wall, light fixtures, paving, etc. I think he quoted us a month but he was able to get it done in 3 weeks. We will still add plants but will follow up with tony during the spring season. I will be consulting MS Gardening for my Backyard work as well.

    Tony and MS Gardening took on our landscaping project this year. We had a full re-landscaping in mind for our entire 5000 square feet backyard, court yard and front yard, and this was simultaneous with our indoor remodel. Since we live in an Eichler, our goal was to create a seamless design that would work well to improve the indoor-outdoor living experience. Tony gave us a really competitive quote and understood our intentions and style. Tony with team demolished all our old concrete and landscaping. His team did all the groundwork for the new concrete driveway, walkways, and retaining walls. Tony managed a subcontractor who poured all our new concrete which turned out exactly the way we wanted it. Tony and team then prepared and installed all drainage, drip water and sprinkler systems, outdoor lights, built two large flush Ipe decks, built a custom bench as part of one of the decks, picked up plants all over the Bay for us, planted plants, installed gravel, and advised us about our existing mature trees and their maintenance. Tony told us the project would take 3 months and he finished up within that timeline, which is very impressive. Choosing to work with Tony was the best decision we could have made. This is his own company, so he takes true pride in his work. Tony is honest, patient, kind, communicative and he is a man who keeps his word. We have been so impressed by how he has handled stressful situations with incredible patience and has always kept his spirits up. That has helped us to remain calm as well throughout a stressful remodel. We are very particular clients and Tony has always been respectful of our wishes and design intent. His team work so hard, rain or shine, and they worked simultaneously with many other contractors throughout this project and the whole team handled it with such professionalism and calm. I can't recommend Tony and MS Gardening enough. We will never work with anyone else for our landscaping or gardening needs. Thank you Tony!

    I'm writing a revised post because of subsequent events. Yes. The initial result was what I described... BUT 1. We discussed placing gravel on the new walkways. - When I called to discuss this further (several times in the course of a few weeks.), I was placed in voicemail. - I left a message. No response. - There are now weeds and "volunteers" appearing in those paths (because there was no barrier set up to prevent this from happening. 2. In fact, when I did have the work done (in April - see my original comment) I had asked to have some other pieces moved etc and that was ignored or overlooked. At the time I was so pleased with the improvements, I didn't feel it was worth mentioning. 3. Lastly, there are two valves that he connected to the irrigation he installed. They are the old valves and leak. He never replaced or fixed them - I believe that work should have been included in the estimate he gave me. Since then, one of the shrubs he planted is in the process of dying - so I'm not even sure at this point that sufficient drip lines were laid. I believe Tony knows he has the ability to be a good landscaper. Unfortunately, because he services the San Jose area and agreed to come up to Redwood City, it would appear that he doesn't feel it's worth the effort.

    Tony and his crew did an amazing job on our new yard. They did a complete remodel of our yard and we are happy with the outcome. Would definitely use them again for any yard work that's needed.

    Tony was a pleasure to do business with. He was responsive and punctual. Did a great job cutting down my tree and cleaning up afterwards.

    Still planning on putting some plants but at this point low maintenance

    Long overdue review. Tony and his team helped us to remove overgrowing weeds and replace them with rock. We wanted something that was low maintenance and received great advice from Tony in the options. When the crew came to do the work, they were fast and efficient. My yard has been transformed. Highly recommend Tony and his team.

    We needed a total makeover for both our front and backyard. We contacted Tony with MS Gardening, and he was able to come out promptly and discuss what needed to be done. Communication with Tony was great throughout the entire process, he replied to our questions via email/text the same day and explained work details well. Tony and his team worked tirelessly 7 days a week and finished the work approximately within 3 weeks. We are very pleased with the results. We had the following work done: cement, planters, sod, planted trees and bushes, put in rocks and mulch, installed irrigation system. We definitely recommend Tony and MS Gardening for anyone who needs landscaping done!

    Great service from MS garden. Tony is very responsible for their job. there is a small accident . My window was broken by small rock while removing old concreate. They do fix it before finishing the job.

    I'll bet you are doing the same thing I did a few months ago. Looking for a reference about MS Gardening. Are they any good? Let me save you some time, answer: Absolutely and you should hire them. Look no further. Enough said. But I'm sure you want more details. Tony and his whole crew are: · Professional · Experienced in new lawn replacement and maintenance · Courteous · Hard working and always on time · Conscientious and payed attention to details · Clean and organized Tony, the owner is very knowledgeable about gardening, plants, lawns, irrigation, and more. He was a pleasure to work with and over all just a great and friendly guy. He replaced my whole front yard and all the surrounding plants. You can see from the pictures this was not a small job. I was so impressed with his professional attitude and work I fired my landscaper and have hired his maintenance crew. I'm very happy with their work.

    Being billed for service not being completed.

    I've been with this gardening service for a couple of years and noticed there is an ongoing inconsistency with the service. There's many times they don't show up. They also try to continue to bill for service that's not even done or not fully completed. If you choose to use this gardening service watch your billing. Also, there selective on returning calls, if you need to discuss any concerns. I'm still waiting for a return call from the owner Tony to discuss my concern, my backyard being missed more then a few times and still getting billed. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL.

Throughout the process, their sales and support teams were responsive and helpful, especially when our original salesperson left the company. When the paver manufacturer experienced production delays, the Black Diamond staff kept us informed, reassured us, and followed up with the vendor on our behalf.

Ulises and his crew turned our yard into a beautiful hardscape that we truly enjoy coming home to every day. Both Jeremy and Ulises took the time to guide us through the options, helping us understand what was possible and what made the most sense for our project.

From the very first phone call, we could tell he knew his craft. He spent generous time listening to our wish list and understanding our vision, explaining the design/build timeline, and answering every "what if" we threw his way. We also loved his design work in his portfolio of course. Shortly after we engaged Taylor, he was on site taking detailed measurements, photos, and even drone shots of our entire front and backyard. He flagged any potential sloping issues, suggested realistic solutions, and connected us to his trusted referral that could further help us. Any time we had follow up questions, he made himself available and responded quickly - no hard sell, just clear information. Although we weren't able to go forward with the full project due to unexpected yard and budget constraints, Taylor handled the change with total professionalism and never made us feel pressured. The insight we gained from his preliminary work was helpful and will be very useful for when we decide to continue with the project in the future. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely easy-to-work-with design partner, we'd highly recommend giving Taylor at Applewood a call.
