    Two weeks after Bonnie and her crew "completed" the stone pathway in front of my house, planted…read morecreeping thyme, and installed irrigation for it and I'm wondering who to report this business to for fraud. About half of the thyme in the walkway has died. On further investigation I find that it was just stuck on the ground with no drip irrigation to it all. (Will attach photos) It took a few weeks for this to become apparent as she and her crew did a very thorough job of hand watering everything before they left. So of course, the failure to install irrigation to those plants didn't show up for a couple of days. This after she assured me that her crew had checked all the irrigation and that it was fine. I am still trying to figure out how to deal with the little loops of irrigation tubing that are sticking up in the middle of the pathway, embedded in the DG. Also some of the pavers by the sidewalk are starting to lift, one is as much as 1/2 inch higher than the sidewalk...and it hasn't even begun to rain yet. No wonder she insisted on being paid on the spot. Stay away from Garden Girls.

    I met with Bonnie in the evening, more at my convenience than hers, which was fabulous. She…read morelistened to what I needed to have done, which was basically to rid my yard of all green stuff unless in a bucket or pot, and we set it up right then and there for when it would be taken care of. The crew came in the morning before I left for work, and again listened to what I wanted to have done. Not only was it exactly what I needed, they even took an extra step and leveled out the back yard for me too. I am so pleased to have my jungle gone and my yard back! If I am ever at the point where I can afford to have someone maintain my yard for me, I am coming back here if they are still around at that point.

    Ken Smith does not honor his commitments and does not value the time sensitive nature of his work…read more Our plants die without water and sadly rain has been hard to come by. We had a broken line (one that Ken had worked on recently). As soon as I saw that we had an issue with our irrigation system, I contacted Ken. His response was "Sure Tuesday or Thursday it would be at the end of the day." Great- this is the kind of prompt response you would be glad to receive, if there was follow-through...But there wasn't... he didn't show up at all that week. Then when he admitted to not completing his commitment and I asked to please get to it earlier than "the following Wednesday." He refused and said go find someone else. Thanks, I will.

    I should have heeded the other negative reviews of this guy. We had a emergency leak in our system,…read moreso I contacted Ken Smith. He said he could come a week and a half later. He would not give me an actual time, even though I asked. I put in on my calendar and waited. Day of the appointment we were really busy around the house trying to get things ready for an event. I expected Ken to show up "afternoon or evening" whatever that meant. I guess I was supposed to be checking my phone the whole day hoping he would contact me, but I was busy and figured he'd show up like he said. Nope. Later I saw a text from him about a time and wrote him back and nothing. I apologized for not seeing his text earlier and wrote him a couple times over the course of a week. No response at all. So, if you want to deal with a guy who seems to think he's doing you a favor, won't give an appointment time, and just has an attitude, then Ken Smith might be the clown for you.

    Sylvester came out to review the site and took some preliminary measurements…read more Over the next few days we discussed the design and the seam. I've seen several other jobs where the seam was still visible after the contractor completed their work. Sylvester and I discussed this potential issue and he told me he uses a special s curved jig to blend the seam together. We discussed the scope for work, the different materials of each layer, a start date and most importantly the price which was better than those national brands and large artificial grass companies. Sylvester contacted me the day prior to the start date confirming the time they would there. The next day, they showed up on time! we sprayed an outline of our design. Not your basic straight line edges that's easy... ours had curves... they started work and bang, 2 and a half days later it was completed and it looks great. In this day of age, it's difficult to find a contractor that responds to calls, shows up when they say they will and are great communicating with their client and putting them at ease. Note: Sylvester was on site most of the time. While on site, he works with his crew. When he wasn't he was picking up materials and only gone for a short time. I'd recommend Sylvester at SJ yard works for their artificial grass installations.

    I can't say enough good things about Eddie and his crew at Eagleview Landscaping. After years of…read morewater pooling around the foundation of my home, I knew I needed to get proper drainage installed to divert water away from the house. I had already spoken with several landscaping companies, and I was honestly struggling to find someone I felt confident would come up with the right solution. I received some surprisingly high quotes, including from companies that were willing to recommend drainage solutions without even coming out to personally assess the property. That made me very hesitant about moving forward. Then Eddie reached out through Yelp, and even from our initial phone conversation, I had a completely different feeling. He took the time to listen, explain what issues I might be dealing with, and walk me through the different drainage options. At first, I was hesitant about the $300 survey fee for the laser measurement of the property's slope. Looking back, I realize this was one of the best parts of the process. Rather than guessing where the water was going or what needed to be done, Eddie was able to properly assess the slope and use that information to determine the best drainage solution for my property. The $300 survey fee is subtracted from the final cost if you use them, which is nice.  Eddie provided me with a very detailed quote and even sent me a video showing the problem areas in my yard since I wasn't able to meet him in person. I'm someone who likes to understand exactly what I'm paying for, so I had A LOT of questions. Eddie spent a good amount of time on the phone with me explaining everything, and I never once felt rushed or like I was being a nuisance. He made sure I understood what we were doing and why. Once we scheduled the work, Eddie also handled having the property properly marked by PG&E before they began digging. Throughout the project, I received updates and videos showing the progress and any issues they came across. There were a couple of additional problems they discovered along the way, and Eddie was upfront about them and provided quotes before doing any additional work. The drainage project was a big job, but his crew completed it within the original estimated timeframe, which I was very impressed with given the size of the project and the Sacramento heat! They also did a great job cleaning everything up afterward. The grass definitely took a hit from the work and the intense Sacramento summer heat, but Eagleview even replaced the areas of grass that had been dug up with new sod. Most importantly, I now feel confident that I have a proper drainage system in place to divert water away from my home instead of allowing it to pool around the foundation like it had been doing for years. And knowing that the work comes with a warranty gives me even more peace of mind. A huge THANK YOU to Eddie and his entire crew for the hard work, professionalism, communication, and care they put into this project. Finding the right contractor for something this important was stressful, and I'm very grateful that Eddie reached out when he did. If you have drainage or water runoff issues and are trying to figure out what the right solution is, I would absolutely recommend giving Eddie at Eagleview Landscaping a call. I'm very glad I did!

    Initially, I was skeptical about working with Eddie because he mentioned that if I wanted the…read morediscounted price, I would need to pay in cash. I didn't have an issue with paying in cash, but given the substantial amount involved, I wanted clear confirmation and documentation of the arrangement. Before the project began, I emphasized that I wanted a very low-maintenance landscape because I don't have time for regular watering or upkeep. I originally requested a sprinkler system, but Eddie strongly advised that it wasn't necessary for my project, so I relied on his recommendation of a drip system. Additionally, even after I confirmed which plants I desired, he either quoted an excessive amount or planted items I informed him that I was not pleasing to my eye. One thing I did appreciate was that, as others have mentioned, he regularly provided video updates throughout the project. That level of communication was helpful. At the same time, I was also having a pool built, and whenever damage occurred, Eddie tended to blame the other. Fortunately, the pool company covered the repairs regardless of who was actually responsible. However, one fence board remained broken even after the pool contractor had completed their work and left the project. The project also experienced several delays. Some were understandable due to weather or because work from other contractors had to be completed first. However, there were also times when my project was postponed so his crew could work on other jobs first, which became frustrating. There were also interactions that I felt were unprofessional. I was asked personal questions about what I do for work and how I could afford my home and car, along with comments implying that my job alone wouldn't support that lifestyle. Those conversations were inappropriate and unrelated to the project. I understand that I can be detail-oriented, and I know that may have been frustrating at times. However, after investing well over $100k into renovating my backyard, I don't think it's unreasonable to expect careful attention to detail and quality workmanship. My biggest disappointment came after the project was completed. When I reached out about issues that needed to be addressed, I was often told that they weren't his crew's responsibility or that I simply needed to hire a gardener because my plants were dying. That response was especially frustrating because I had been very clear from the beginning that I wanted a low-maintenance yard and specifically did not want to hire a gardener immediately after the project. I relied on his expertise and recommendations, so I expected the landscaping to be installed in a way that aligned with those goals. Overall, while Eddie may be a good fit for smaller, less complex projects, my experience with a large-scale project left me disappointed. Between the delays, communication issues, unprofessional comments, and lack of accountability after completion, I cannot recommend him for major landscaping projects. I would also like to note I followed up with Eddie on several occasions and stated "he is overwhelmed with my project and done all the work as required."
