Rafael is difficult to get a hold of. We did eventually connect telephonically, but he stood me up for our estimate appointment. I left multiple voicemails and never heard back. :( read more

Where did Rafael go? Called him up to give me an estimate for a drain repair. He said it was minimal and quoted me on the spot. Said he would have to get back to me on a date to complete the work since he was busy. A week has passed. Nothing. I have called him, left voicemails, texts and emails. No response. Guess he is so busy he can't call me back. Good for him but I guess bad for me? I got another estimate that was a fraction of his estimate. Scheduled to complete the work asap. read more

Rafael's Lanscaping did a phenomenal job on my backyard. From start to finish the process was easy and no issues with him or his crew. Everyone was attentive, there to work and started at the same time everyday. Everyone was very respectful, friendly and easy to talk to. Work was done in the amount of time we agreed upon. The workmanship of the work done is superb. I would highly recommend them for any landscaping needs that anyone might need. I will definitely be calling Rafael and his crew back when I am ready to get started on the front yard. read more

I am very happy customer, Rafael have been on top of everything from start to finish. He calls me everyday for the next day plan and he always answer his phone or return my calls within minutes. He did a beautiful work front and backyard of a new house we purchased. His crew are friendly and professional as well. His price is reasonable after comparing it with other quotes. I highly recommended his company for any landscape work, you will not be disappointed if you hire his company. read more

I recently contracted Rafael's Landscaping service for our front and back yard upgrades. Rafael himself came out the very same week to provide me with a quote. His service was prompt, professional, and legitimate. He scheduled me for late July but was able to complete the work over 2 weeks sooner than the date promised. I am 100% satisfied with their work and will refer anyone I know. Best of all, Rafael's Landscape Inc. offers financing with affordable payment plans, up to 18 month interest free!! read more

My 1st experience with Rafael's Landscaping was when they did some minor front yard maintenance including sprinkler repair and shrub trimming. I was impressed with the quality, communication, cost, and professionalism exhibited by Rafael and his team. During that 1st job we discussed our upcoming whole yard landscaping project. Again I was impressed with the wide range of services provided including design, hardscape, and everything else I previously spoke about. In February 2015, I asked Rafael to landscape our backyard. The job included initial clean-up (grass and shrub removal), rock, dividers, plants and drip system installation. The job went flawlessly and I can't recommend Rafael high enough and would encourage anyone considering any landscaping work to contact Rafael at Rafael's Landscaping. Rafael is an excellent project manager and his team is courteous, professional, and treated our home as if it was their own. His website is http://www.rafaelslandscape.com and his phone number is (909) 266-3797. read more

I hired Rafael and his team to put in mow curb, sod, replace sprinklers and some other basic stuff. Initially, they arrived on time and did a great job with the clearing of weeds and laying down sod. However, there was a major issues that they failed to remedy. They poured the mow curb on top of my sprinkler heads and "scheduled" to come out and fix it. They never came back out after receiving their payment. (I know I should have waited to pay everything until it was fixed but that was my mistake) Rafael initially responded and stated they would be out again, but again they didn't show. He stopped replying to my messages after that. I rated him in the middle because again, the main job was done nicely, but the fact that they didn't fix their mistake is a major issue. So if you hire them, be sure everything is good before making your final payment. read more

Outstanding work. My backyard was a disaster and Rafael did an amazing job. Very professional, he explained every phase of his work and finished the job in a very timely manner. I had new sprinkler lines, pavers to extend my patio, sod, and woodchips put in; all in 5 days. His crew cleaned up after each day and Rafeal checked in to see if I was satisfied with the progress each day. I highly recommend him and will call again if I need future work done read more

Rafael and his crew made a xeriscape area on my side yards by bringing in rock and creating a dry river creek bed look. His estimate was fair and he even lowered it for me after he found the rock for a better price. Even though Rafael didn't do the work himself, his crew did exactly what we had planned. However, he overestimated the amount of rock he would need for the job so there was a lot left over which I asked them to leave for me to put elsewhere in my yard. They did the entire project in one day which was great! The only reason why I didn't give five stars is because he was very busy and prefers to communicate by text which is fine but he didn't always get back to me until a few days later which made it difficult to communicate at times. read more

Rafael and his team are amazing!!! I had a very large and dangerous raised concrete slab in my backyard and needed to have it removed and continue the grass... I had to re build a planter wall so wanted to use the bricks from the slab to save money and Rafaels team took the time to remove each brick carefully so that they weren't chipped!! Ended up saving almost all of the bricks and saved me $1000!! It was a ton of hard work and the price was very reasonable! Looking forward to working with Rafael again in the future on some other projects I have planned! Pics of before (with slab) during and after!! read more

Rafael's Landscaping went above and beyond a five star rating. Their professionalism along with industry expertise made my experience with them so much better. Not only was the price fair, but Rafael was very accommodating to my needs. He was available to answer all questions at any time. The quality of their work is superior. I was looking for someone to demo, run drainage along with gas, water and electrical. Rafael's Landscaping was able to meet my needs at a reasonable price. The project was completed a couple of days before the contract date, which relieved much anticipated stress! I would recommend Rafael's Landscaping to anyone who are in the market to get a custom backyard oasis. I'm beyond satisfied and really impressed! read more

What An Awesome Landscaping Contractor and Crew. As a new homeowner my objective was to improve the looks of my house by doing so I needed help in the front yard. After reviewing many landscaping contractors, I decided to go with Rafael Landscaping due to his great communication approach and abilities to get the job done in less than a week even thou he had other homes to work on he was able to make my home a priority. Rafael and his crew installed new sod, drip system, all new sprinklers system, water drainage and a new concrete walk way. I want to thank you Rafael and your Crew for a great professional job. read more

Rafael was absolutely amazing to work with. From the very beginning - he was kind, professional, fairly priced, and very dependable. We interviewed about 6 landscapers total for our project and ultimately went with Rafael and not even based on cost alone - we had quotes come in lower but they did not seem as dependable or nice as Rafael. His team came EVERY DAY from start to finish (except of course 2 days necessary to let the concrete cure), and always left the worksite clean. What I really liked about working with Rafael was that he communicated with me the entire time by keeping me updated with everything and checking in. He was also so excited and positive about the project that it made the whole experience so enjoyable. The quality of his work is excellent - I had some tricky concrete squares in my design and his team nailed it. I also had a very particular vision and knew exactly what I wanted and he was so nice about doing everything how I wanted and envisioned it. He also finished in a very timely fashion. I couldn't have hoped to work with anyone better - highly recommend! read more

/Rafael answered our calls immediately...arrived to his appointment on time....actually took the time to measure and take notes regarding what we wanted And then NOTHING We waited a week for him to give us a quote for the job. I figured he was busy so I called him to follow-up with him. He didn't even bother to send a text to say he could not take the job. The work we were having done was in preparation for a outside party for our 25 WEDDING ANNIVERSARY IN MAY. We let him know that...I was VERY DISAPPOINTED but glad I didn't give him any money. The work we needed completed just FYI Terrance our hill in the back Build 3 ft wall Fill in pool/concrete over Build a side fence Landscape front and back. read more

In today's world it is rare to see a company that is as awesome as this one! They have done work for me before so I knew that I was hiring the best out there again for my backyard. They do amazing work and they stand behind their work 100%. I promise you, you will be happy with no regrets!!! read more

I called this person to come and give us a quote for concrete for my backyard. He came on time and gave us a quote. I called him several months later and told him we were ready to start our project. He agreed and I had to call him two times. He never called me back and kept me in limbo for two weeks. The last time I contacted him (third time) he said he'd called me back the next day. He never did. If he wasn't interested in the job to begin with he should've told me instead of stringing me along. This is just unprofessional. read more

Ralphael's Landscaping came out this week to fix a sprinkler, clear my drainage pipes and find any inlets to the underground system. The workers were professional and did an excellent job! Plus the price was reasonable. I say give 'em a call! read more

I've never been more impressed by a company. Rafael was courteous and great throughout the whole process. It was a little harder than usual to get a permit during the pandemic but Rafael reached out and always kept me informed throughout the process. The crew was amazing and so efficient. I was impressed from beginning to the very end. I feel like the team really got things done fast. When we voiced our opinions, they listened and really went above and beyond to get what we wanted. Right now I'm going through a horrible ordeal with another company and wish I had the service I received from Rafael. The price is more than the other quotes but he said it himself that he probably would be and was honest from the very beginning about it and he was great when I called him asking if he can come down a little on the cost. Def would recommend him to family and friends. read more

Contacted Rafaels Landscaping about a block wall and driveway addition. Rafael answered the phone and made an appointment to come and give a bid. Rafael showed up on time and gave bid. We decided to go with his company because of the photos and references. His crew are very professional and did a fantastic job. The block wall is beautiful and done perfectly. The driveway addition was also done to perfection. I will use this company again. My suggestion is to call the phone number, because his website might miss your inquiry. read more

Rafael and his team did a great job on our backyard patio. It wasn't a large job but it transformed our backyard. The level of detail in the pavers, brick work and veneer is excellent. Rafael is a busy guy so it took 3 weeks before our project could start but they started on the day he said they would. We are happy with the quality of the workmanship. Rafael communicated with us every step of the way. I highly recommended them read more

Seems like Rafael needs an estimator to help him out! Called requesting an estimate, told him what I needed (about $20,000 of work based on other quotes I received) His immediate answer was I will call you back in 15 mins...he never did! Very unprofessional. After reading other bad reviews on this profile, it is very clear to me that he lacks responsibility in replying and getting back to Customers. Good thing I went with another company!! read more

As others have written, Rafael seems to be a victim of his own success. Apparently, spending close to $10,000 was not worth his time to call or email as he had promised. He did me a favor though, the job went to someone else - much cheaper! read more

Amazing customer service. Rafael is attentive to the customers concern and likes. The cement job was done with attention to detail. Thank you Rafael. read more

Awesome work! The team installed pavers, sprinklers, grass and cement. My stairway to the front door looks so inviting and clean. These are some hard working guys and their handiwork was impeccable. We are so thankful that we had our yard landscaped before the shutdown or our kids wouldn't have had a backyard to play in. And my husband and I wouldn't have been able to relax with a cold beer in hand. read more

Rafael's Landscape is the best at customer service. I had my backyard redone over the summer (concrete, grass and plants). Concrete job was perfect. Due to the extreme heat, a lot of the grass died, but Rafael told me not to worry. When the weather got better, his team came back and replaced all of the grass. And not only that, but Rafael and his brother, Carlos, have been checking on the grass every week to make sure it's getting the right amount of water and adding fertilizer. I couldn't ask for anything more. If you need any landscaping done, Rafael and his team are the ones to call. read more

Rafael came out to my house, measured, and told me he would call with a quote. I never heard from him again.

Rafael!! Omgosh, where so I begin?? My back yard is relatively large. My sprinkler system broke years back and i was watering with rotary type hand sprinklers. It gave me the blues because it is so large, it took a while to move the sprinkler to cover the entire lot. My front driveway was asphalt and grass on the side of it. I was done! :-D Found Rafael on Yelp, told him kind of what I wanted but needed him to pull the vision from my brain and make it a reality. He did just that! He poured new cement in the front, widened my walkway and made it 'pretty' with a curvature as I asked (smile), removed the dreaded side grass and cemented all the way down the side of house removing half the grass in the back yard and replacing with more cement. They added MoCurb around existing area and planted new sod with sprinklers. They put plants outside the curbing area and added a drip system. They started the next day, bright and early and finished quickly. His team was efficient and professional. We went over my budget, but I wanted a lot. It was worth every penny!! There is so much more, I can't write it all. I am having my birthday party out there and want to surprise the family who are all Yelp users but will post next photos month. I have more work in the front and will use him again. Rafael is a winner, 10 stars easy! read more

We agreed on a date for a job visit. Unfortunately I had to send Rafael a text to cancel the appointment due to some circumstances. However, there was some miscommunication and he still showed up on time. I admire Rafael's professionalism and promptness. Although I wasn't able to use him in my project, I will definitely contact him again if I have other projects in the future. I won't hesitate to refer him to some friends who are looking for a reliable contractor. read more

This is the 2nd time I have used Rafael and I highly recommend him. Before our work I went through other contractors because he was so booked! But I eventually waited and used Rafael because I trusted him and knew it would come out the way I wanted. He also ended being the best priced of all the quotes. He is professional and treats you like family. One thing that I like a lot is that he listens and is available via phone before, during, and after the job. His brother does a lot of the hands on work and the rest of the crew are great. The crew is very attentive to detail and to the customer wishes. read more

Rafael and his crew put in a new backyard for me in early May 2020: leveling, sprinklers, and sod. We had scheduled the work for March, but then coronavirus hit and he had to postpone the work, which I understood and agreed with. He came out and reviewed my requirements and we put together a contract. His crew did the work very efficiently, starting early every morning. They were like ninjas: they worked quietly throughout the day, and when I stepped out in the evening to look things over, the yard was so tidy it was like they were never there. Rafael was always available to talk on the phone, and his brother (the crew chief, Carlos I think his name was) was equally professional. Highly recommended, they'll be first on my list to call when I have more work. read more

We'd moved into our house for 4 months and our HOA required us to complete our backyard within 6 months. Rafael came over and gave us an estimate and was very patient while we waited for approval for the plan. He followed up with us regularly so that he could schedule us in. Once we finally got our approval he came over a couple of days later to confirm the work and materials we had chosen. He had his guys start the following week and they completed the work in 6 days (labor day weekend included). They were nice, professional and worked diligently to meet the expected timeline. They even completed the work 1 day early. We had gravel on one side of our house. Sod was laid down in the backyard and they used black beach pebbles along our patio. On the other side of our house they poured concrete and connected it to our driveway. I highly recommend them! I can't wait to redo our front yard and when I'm able to I know I'll be reaching out to Rafael and his team. read more

So I had set a couple appointments to get someone out to give me an estimate on our backyard. Both times Rafael couldn't make it due to running behind on other jobs and traffic. However, his communication was good. Well third time was a charm as they say and he showed up finally to give the estimate. Considering other estimates he seemed reasonable so I called him back to give him the job. He came back out, did some measuring, we talked about types of sod and sprinkler system and agreed on a date it would start and be finished. Well he is a man of his word and even finished the job earlier than expected. He's come back a couple times to check the progress of my yard. We couldn't be happier with the grass. Especially my dogs. Great work Rafael and thanks bunches for taking the job. read more
