We recently hired Salvador and his team to do some landscaping work in both our front and back yards, as well as repair and update our front fencing and entrance -- and we could not be happier with the results. Salvador is such a hard worker and truly an honest, dependable person. He was upfront and transparent throughout the entire process, and his team worked quickly, efficiently, and with great attention to detail. It's clear they take a lot of pride in their work, and it really shows in the finished product. Not only did they help bring new life to our outdoor spaces, but they also made the entire experience easy and stress-free. We would absolutely recommend Salvador and his team to anyone looking for landscaping or exterior work -- it's rare to find such quality work paired with genuine professionalism these days! read more

We began our conversation with Salvador about a year ago. We had just torn down and rebuilt our garage and needed to landscape the back yard. He came out and provided us with an estimate and drawing, which we loved. However our neighbors were doing a construction project as well that caused us to have to hold off on our project until this year. Salvador came back out, adjusted the original plan to account for the work the neighbors had done, and ultimately provided us with the back yard of our dreams. It was completely worth the investment and worth waiting for. Salvador, Maria, and the crew were great to work with from beginning to end. Salvador is creative in his designs and very knowledgeable about the plants he brought in. He and the crew were dependable and did really great work for us. Highly recommend. read more

They do good, dependable work. I trust them with the key to my backyard. The workers are nice, the business manager is responsive. I've used them for a few years, and recommend them. read more

Salvador's completed two projects - involving hardscaping and landscaping - and both have been excellent experiences. As others have said he's honest, immensely knowledgable, and at the end of the day you get to enjoy the incredible pride and hard work he and his team put in. His pricing is fair. I'd go on, but Missy S's April 2025 review really captures it. Salvador's Landscaping deserves many more than the five stars available. read more

We've engaged Salvador for a few different projects over the years and every time the execution has been perfect. We just had him at our new home for another job and he and his team did it again. Excellent work product for really hard work, they'll stay as long as they need to get the job done quickly and effectively, and Salvador has the best eye for design and the best ways to curate a great outdoor space for our family's needs. We're lucky to have worked with him for a few years and will continue to hire him for any new landscaping needs going forward. read more

My 2019 "Business of the Year" award goes to Salvador's Landscaping. This family-run business has been handling our routine lawn care and snow removal for nearly 3 years now. I've contracted other local companies to perform this service in past years with varying results, but this one is superior by far. Salvador himself is friendly and knowledgeable. Communication (by email) has been excellent, and his crew is most reliable and accommodating. Salvador's talents and skills, though, go much further than routine maintenance. If you need shrubs or trees planted, he is brimming with suggestions and options, and you can count on him to do a great job. But he is truly a master at landscape design and brick paving. Our deteriorating driveway and sidewalks needed replacement, so this past summer we contracted Salvador to redesign the landscaping in front of our home and install Unilock brick pavers. From start to finish in just two weeks' time, our property went from resembling a home "on the other side of the tracks" to a showplace that draws compliments from neighbors. The Missus and I are absolutely delighted with Salvador's superb work and his attention to detail. read more

Salvador trimmed the bushes and he dd a great job. They returned my call and showed up quickly.

I just want to preface this by saying, I'm a residential contractor, specializing in bathrooms and kitchens. I usually only review businesses when they are bad or exceptionally good. Salvador's Landscaping is exceptionally good! I was looking to get my front concrete sidewalk, stairs, and fence/gate done at my home. I called many landscape companies and left messages to call me back. Believe it or not, Maria, from SL, was the only one to return my call and set up a date for Salvador to give an estimate. From the time I met Salvador, I knew he knew his stuff and was very prideful of his work; showing me pictures of his most recent projects. We talked a bit and shared stories of each other's trade; he's a very nice guy. After we agreed on the work to be done and cost of project, I waited patiently for the start date. I was a bit concerned because the weather was not cooperating; 90 degree temps with bouts of torrential rain. But, true to his word, he came on the start date and waited in the trucks for the rain to stop. Salvador and his team worked tirelessly and did such a terrific job; he was mindful of many details I did not think of. After 4 days, while dealing with normal complications and weather issues, Salvador and his team gave my wife and I a beautiful new entrance to our home. We were extremely pleased. Thank you Salvador, Maria, and the whole team! read more

Salvador and his team are excellent. We had about 500 sq ft brick and bluestone pavers laid a year ago. I wanted to wait a year before writing a review...the true test of a well built hard scape is how it performs over time. This passes the test. Still drains properly to the drain and has not undergone any heaving or shifting. Salvador is great to talk to, takes pride in his craft and very patient and was willing to work with existing bricks and add bluestone as needed. On top on that when I added an inlet this year and had to tear up a 2x5 section, I contacted them to see if they could help replace bricks. Despite knowing they are very tightly schedule, they got right back in touch--that great customer care! Ended up fixing it myself but their response was very reassuring. read more

We hired Salvador's Landscaping to remove our current landscaping and install a fence. The project was completed quickly and the gate looks fantastic. They took the time to make sure the gate blended in with the neighbor's fence and they left the area spotless. The whole team was nice and professional --- from scheduling to the actual work. Highly recommend! read more

Salvador was prompt, helpful, courteous, and PATIENT. He got us a quote quickly, and tolerated the fact that it's taking our condo board a while to make up its mind. We haven't booked the service, yet, but so far the experience has been much better than the other companies we called for quotes. read more

Salvador is an untrustworthy businessman. If I could give him zero stars I would. He did work for me then changed the price after. He added an additional $400 for the price of my fence after we had an agreement. He waited until he was finish to do this. It was not due to additional materials because I had a surplus of materials leftover. I had him do 3 different things in a span of 3 weeks. I got a fence, was supposed to get a garage, and had my yard prepared for sod. For the yard I had to have him come back out because my yard still had a lot of roots and had not been leveled as he stated, and it was not in any condition to lay sod. The fence has nails that are visibly protruding on the inside of the wood. I'm concerned because I have animals and they can be injured. It's so many nails! It looks like every nail that was used to too long. I have to find someone else to come and fix this issue. There were several issues I had to call him back to fix for every single project. I specifically asked him for a garage but he framed one full side and partial on the other and tried to charge me for the labor of an entire garage. I currently still have a carport. Now I have to have someone else come out and finish the work. They also left a bunch of trash in my yard for weeks. There's also some permitting issues with the garage. He also told me he would return my material from the jobs because I paid for the material separately. He ended up keeping my material. He lied and told me he returned it and the money would be returned to my card. When I never saw the refund I reached back out to him and that's when the lies started. One lie was that Lowe's did not allow him to return the material because it got wet. Then he lied and said he couldn't return it because it had nails in it, which it didn't. Then he mentioned he didn't do it because he had his family.... When I asked him to refund my money for my materials he then started saying that I owed him some money because he bought more materials that was not discussed. I had to argue with him for a refund. Then he tried to add an additional fee for delivering my materials which was already included in the job. When I made the purchase of the materials I told him I would have it shipped but he agreed to pick it up. He never mentioned a charge until after I requested my refund for my materials he was supposed to return. I spent $8k with Salvador in the span of 3 weeks. Save your money and find a licensed trustworthy professional. If you don't find the right person you end up paying twice. read more

Salvador's landscaping team did a great job to fix and clean up my entire yard, it looks completely different! I am very happy with their service, and their prices were very reasonable, will definitely recommend and I will book them for future yard clean ups or improvements. read more

Loved working with Salvador and the team over here; first-class pros front-to-back. We had met with a number of other landscaping companies who were trying to sell us everything from in-ground irrigation systems to expensive planters, and we wanted simple, modern and sustainable. Sal met with me on a Sunday, talked about his vision and how we could bring ours to life, talked us out of hairbrained ideas and gave us a price that was unbeatable. Not only did they nail our "front yard", but also the sod, the mulch and added a new brick walkway to the street to match our building color. They were very communicative and showed up on time and spent so much time and effort getting this right. Honestly not sure where the negative reviews are from but we are totally on board and would use them again in a heartbeat! read more

I didn't want to write this during the pandemic due to the challenges to small business but hopefully that is behind us now. Salvador, I don't know how else to communicate with you other than through Yelp but if you ever read this you should know about how Maria in your business office interacts with your customers. After we had been loyal to you for years and always paid on time, Maria got angry with me when I dared to ask about late fees that were imposed after only ten(!) days from the date of the invoice. Then she retaliated by dropping the account the next season. I asked to speak with you directly but she refused, saying she and Maddy were the only ones in charge. You have plenty of competition and we easily found a replacement service but I thought you ought to know about the defensive and vengeful business image being projected. read more

We originally had a cedar fence installed around our backyard. We soon hired Salvador's to install a brick sidewalk to join the existing brick patio because we were so impressed with Salvador's quality of work. The sidewalk was unnoticeably graded to carry rain away from our house and garage. A drain grate was seamlessly installed near the edge of our stairwell. Salvador's then installed five trees and relocated arborvitae all along the fence line for perfect privacy. We will continue to hire Salvador's for other jobs for obvious reasons. Salvador's provides outstanding quality in little time - their work lends tremendous value to our home. read more

Highly recommended!! Salvador and his team were amazing---from the constant communication with Maria to meticulously placing each paver. Salvador supported us through a total rehab of our back patio and sidewalk---removing old pavers/concrete and installing new pavers, steps, retaining walls (for garden beds and a tree), underground drainage pipes, river rock and an arborvitae hedge. Water management was our #1 concern. Salvador was very knowledgeable/experienced in this area and was flexible with our vision but provided straight feedback when he had concerns and even proposed better suggestions than we had imagined. Salvador's care, attention-to-detail and pride in his work is second to none---and this is reflected in the beauty of his craftsmanship. We live on an alley so our patio project became the neighborhood entertainment for the week. We received so many compliments from neighbors and some neighbors were so impressed they even signed up Salvador to redo their patios! Thank you, Salvador! We are so happy with our new backyard and can't wait to enjoy it all summer!! We look forward to working with you on future projects. read more

Salvador does great work. I've used him for landscaping services many times and referred friends to him. They also really like the work Salvador's team does. He's professional, reasonably priced, and a nice and friendly guy as well. He super knowledgeable about plants and what grows well in various locations in my yard. read more

I hired Salvador on the recommendation from yelp. He came out for the estimate and Maria got back to us with the plans and a quote. I had to initiate follow up after he was out here but well worth the effort. We finalized the plan and the price and set a date for the work to begin. It was about a month out, but again worth the wait. He put up a retaining wall and for the price it far exceeded my expectations. Salvador takes a lot of pride in his work and is very detailed. After he started, he had a few add on suggestions. He didn't even ask for another penny. And, when I asked could pay for the extras he declined. He simply told me that he wanted people to be happy with the work. This is my first ever Yelp review and it couldn't be for a better reason. It is hard to find people like Salvador these days. Hire him and you will be satisfied. read more

Worst customer service I have ever experienced with any service company. They also billed me for a service they did not perform and when I called them to inquiry they said the workers went to the wrong house. I would avoid Salvador's landscaping at all costs and go with the many other companies that offer equal or better service. read more

Wow!!! Salvador and his team took this little Ms Haversham and her garden and made it shine! So happy and they were in and out in three days flat. Great pricing and professionalism and they didn't leave a thing out of place! Highest recommendation! read more

Salvador's team came out to my house on 2 very hot days in June. I have 2 non landscaping related stories to share. First, during some downtime when part of the team was waiting for the rest to show up, one of his employees just started watering our plants. It was not related to the work they were doing. He just noticed they could use some water and took it upon himself to keep busy while waiting. Second, we put out a bowl with bottle water and ice in it. When they were packing up for the day, there was some dirt in the bowl and they cleaned it before leaving. To me, both of these are examples of how much care they put into their work. read more

About 3 years ago I had Salvador's lay sod in my backyard in the late fall. I was happy at first but come spring it was obvious the grass had not fared well -- there were dead spots all over the yard. I felt I'd done everything correctly. I called and messaged to see if they'd come out and let me know what could be done, and indicated I was willing to discuss cost, but no one got back to me. I planted some seed in rough spots and was able to keep the lawn reasonable for a couple of seasons. Then this last late summer/fall/early winter we had lots of heavy rain and it became apparent that there is no drainage AT ALL in the yard -- under the grass is just gravel, but not in a good supplying drainage way, rather hard, packed, can't get a shovel in there rock. I am not sure if they laid down gravel before laying the sod or if that's what was there after they took up the old, crappy weeds that were in the yard when we moved in -- as the project was completed one day while we were at work. Now my yard is all mud. The grass is entirely dead despite my best efforts. I wonder, had they returned my call when I reached out after that first winter if they would have seen the overarching issue at that time and have been able to help save our yard. As it is we will now be investing in another sod job 3 years later. read more

This is the second time using Salvador's Landscaping. We first used his service in October 2019 to design the front of our house. This time we asked him to design our rear yard. The outcome was beyond our expectations. He turned a average back yard to a oasis to relax or entertain. He designed a patio with a sitting wall as well as beautiful plants. We have 2 mini Golden doodles that love to tear up the grass. Salvador included artificial dog grass which not only looks great and they can't tear it up. The dogs love it. He also installed a fence so they can't escape. Highly recommended. Thank You Salvador !! read more

As soon as the snow melts away and the grass underneath reveals the dead brown and yellow, my thoughts turn to spring... and Salvador's Landscaping. In an annual ritual no different than the first robin, the first spring flower or the first barbecue outside, calling Salvador to get booked on his spring yard cleanup list is something I've done each year for the past 6 years now. Like every year, Salvador's crew arrives with their long covered trailer and promptly get to work, raking up dead vegetation, clearing off flower beds, pruning away dead branches on shrubbery and leaf-blowing immense amounts of the brown and yellow thatch to reveal the first hints of green grass bringing hope of warmer days to come. Salvador's crew came by this week for me and as always, did a fantastic job cleaning up the yard both in front and in back. They must've spent close to 2 hours grooming the grass and flower beds so that I can get started working on my planting for the growing season in the coming weeks. I know I can always count on them to get it done right at the start of each spring. read more

Salvador's Landscaping recently designed and installed new shrubs at the front of our house, replacing some old yews that had been there 70 years. In one day, our house was transformed! Beautiful design, great choice of shrubs, and completely finished in one day. Magical! read more

We couldn't be happier with Salvador, Maria and the team. They installed new sod at our place and it looks great! We also had them lay out brick patio in the back, and again, it looks amazing. Just a super guy; very friendly, very knowledgeable and it's pretty clear he cares about the workmanship and follow-up. Would not hesitate to hire Salvador and his team, and we'll be using them from here on out for maintenance. Thanks, Salvador! read more

I can't believe how happy landscaping has made me! I came home one night and our condo building's 1970s style arborvitae had been ripped out and our dog abused grass was no longer there. It was as if some sort of landscape fairy had magically replaced the outdated, poorly maintained shrubs with new mulch, barberries and ornamental perennial grasses and then left without a trace. It wasn't a fairy...in fact Salvador probably wouldn't like being called a fairy. My consultation with Salvador was great. I asked for his ultimate design for the space and then an economical design. We had to go with the economical design that is a good base to build onto a more elaborate garden. We will definitely use Salvador in the future for our upgrades. With regards to planting materials, he assured me that he only uses material that can withstand the harsh winters READ: they must be grown somewhere in the Midwest or farther north. Finally, he and his crew were really tidy--sidewalks were swept, containers disposed of, you name it and it was orderly. Maria takes all of Salvador's phone calls (I think it is his wife). She is very helpful and incredibly sweet. She was always prompt in returning calls or giving status updates. Definitely two thumbs up for Salvador. read more

I called for a quote in June, and Salvador came out the next evening to discuss the project I had in mind. We had some overgrown bushes in the front of our home that needed removal and replacement, red lava rocks (ugh) that I wanted moved to the south side of the house in the 12" gap between our home and the neighbors' fence (to keep the weeds from growing), and a lawn full of dandelions that I could not seem to get rid of on my own. Salvador was very friendly, his cost was reasonable, and based on that and the reviews I found here, I did not seek additional quotes for the work. I scheduled the work 2 months out because I called too late, and they were booked up. On the scheduled date, Salvador and two other men arrived on-time and ready to go. Both workers were very pleasant and professional, and allowed me to take pictures of their progress (I was excited). It was a nice day, and thankfully not too hot, but I still offered them beverages which they accepted with many thanks. The work they did is exactly how I envisioned it to be, and looks wonderful! He even offered to weed and mulch my poor new hostas along the fence, which we had not previously discussed. (Apparently they were looking a bit rough), I am so happy, and plan to have them back (hopefully next spring) when I figure out what we want to do with our backyard. Call in advance if you have a large job to do, as they are booked solid by the end of spring. However, the office did tell me that they work in the smaller jobs, as they are able. A+ Service all the way! read more

Can not more highly recommend Salvador and his team, as they have done several major landscaping projects for us, including reconfiguring a stone patio, full landscaping with plants, sprinkler system, landscape lights, grading, and sod. He has also come out to fix some landscaping issues we had, and has done spring cleanup for us each year. Also, he is a great guy. read more

This is my first full year using a landscaping service and I must say that Salvador's made the process very easy and pleasant.

Salvador and his team are so professional and took care of our project on time and within budget. Hey helped us come up with a solution for our backyard including landscaping, pavers and fencing. Took our unsafe, ugly yard and transformed it into a beautiful play space for our son. I did a lot of research prior to booking Salvador, so learn from me and just give these guys a call. You will not regret it. read more

Just horrible, they were a no show not initial appointment and then only after I text them they called me. Never showed up for second appointment, provided me with a quote over the phone and then via email. When I asked for a sketch of how it will look the owner ignored me and then when I followed up he said to find another contractor and that he is booked up. read more

They over charge! Their service is mediocre. They are understaffed. Maria in the office is rude and doesn't respond timely or even acknowledge a customer's issues. She also makes up inconsistent and overly expensive prices from year to year. I would never recommend this landscaper to anyone. Believe me you will be UNHAPPY! read more

This is year two using Salvador's and we are very happy with their work. The crew came when promised and even helped with some other items while doing our sod (placed a path and leveled yard out). Looks great, super nice to work with. Salvador's is great! read more

The reviews I write compared to the reviews I read here are out of proportion. I only review when I feel something is exceptional or horrible. In the case of Salvador and his landscaping company, I have to give him the highest marks. He is personable, prompt, professional and reasonably priced. Those are combinations rare to any business. I feel it is a bonus that Salvador himself is involved in the process from start to finish. He came out and gave me ideas, prices and then returned when I hired him to install and complete the job. You won't be disappointed. read more

We have used a few others but no one compares with Salvador. We called on Saturday for a quote and he stopped by on Sunday! We got the quote on Monday and Tuesday he was doing the work (we were lucky that he happened to hit our neighborhood on Tuesday as part of his team's regular jobs). Very reasonable and they do great work. Highly, highly recommend! read more
