I rarely give five stars but Francisco and his crew deserve it. He has been working on my yards for over a year now and he has helped transform this overgrown weedy place into a useful and well-used part of the property now. Francisco respects my eccentric requests and has been very helpful with his suggestions. I trust his opinion and am so dang happy with his results in my yards. read more

New Bloom Gardening has worked on several projects at my home in Berkeley. I have used this company for several large projects like designing and building a 50 foot concrete walkway, as well as construction of a wooden gate and rebuilding a retaining wall, and installing exterior hand rails. I have been more than satisfied with the quality of the work and the schedule. The final cost of all projects was within the original estimate. I appreciate the responsiveness and the cooperative attitude that this company has shown. I intend to use them again. read more

Francisco and his crew began working here 3 years ago to do bi- weekly maintenance and have always been punctual and thorough. I was always able to communicate within minutes about anything that came up. Then last week I needed to remove an old wooden potting shed, a 50+ year old huge rose bush encroaching on my roof, and a big hedge and Francisco, Humberto and Manuel were able to complete this in under 2 days. They left the site immaculate and the underground irrigation system intact. I was impressed by their skill, hard work and great attitude. This was not an easy job. I feel lucky to have New Bloom Gardening here for me as I decide how to proceed with my newly available space. Their prices are reasonable and product exceptional. read more

After a very wet winter of 2022, everything in my yard grew like crazy, so by summer I was looking at a very overgrown yard. The garden was badly in need for pruning service. I got a handful of bids, and I decided to go with Francisco of New Bloom Gardening not only because of his reasonable price (for a licensed and insured outfit), but also because I think he really listens to his customer to understand their needs. I asked him about proper pruning techniques and I was comforted by his answers, especially when he mentioned that they sanitize all their equipment between clients to ensure no plant diseases get carried over by their tools. On the day of the job, Francisco and his crew showed up on time. About half way through, he checked-in with me to ensure that I am satisfied with their progress and to get further feedback. Before finishing the job, he checked with me again to ensure nothing was missed. When the work was completed, I was very pleased with the results. The yard looked great after the pruning, and the crewed swept up to ensure everything was tidy, and hauled away all the yard trimmings. They did exactly everything I asked, and Francisco was a pleasure to work with. I would use Francisco and his crew again. read more

We've been using New Bloom for over a year now (since August 2023) and the high quality of service has never wavered. We originally hired them to do a yard cleanup - our yard had gotten away from us during my second pregnancy - and I was impressed by Francisco's professional and practical approach. He offered great suggestions when I asked his opinion on different aspects of the project, delivered a timely and reasonable quote, and was easy to communicate with for scheduling. After the job, I was amazed at how my garden looked and hired them to do biweekly maintenance to keep it looking its best. Best decision I've made for my yard. I get to go out and enjoy it with my kids instead of thinking about how much work there is to do. Just recently I had him remove several junipers for fire safety and not only did they remove the shrubs and roots, they made it look like nothing had ever been there so the yard looks decent even though the plants are gone. TLDR: Highly recommended! read more

We have used New Bloom for quite a few yard projects and have never been disappointed. We turned our next door neighbors on to them and they are equally happy! read more

I needed my large front and back yard cleaned up and overhauled. Francisco gave me a good quote and showed up promptly. He did a great job and really listened to what I needed. Others I had quotes from I could tell were not really listening to me and what I needed. He really accomplished everything I wanted and left my garden like it hasn't looked in ages. I'd really recommend him to anyone needing any sort of garden and landscaping work. read more

He has lots of helpful suggestions and knowledge to share. He has helped us with clearing, planting, irrigation, and more. Competitive pricing. I can't recommend him highly enough. read more

We live in the North Berkeley Hills and have engaged Francisco and New Bloom Gardening twice in the last year for major clean up and maintenance projects at our home.
