Do not use this company. They seem to have gone out of business!…read more We hired greg to landscape our yard in December. Greg finished the job and was supposed to come back and finish a few parts of the job that his team didn't do correctly (loose decking, broken fence post, incorrect light fixtures). However he just vanished and stopped responding to all my texts and emails. I hope everything is ok and it is sad if they actually did go out of business, but the way greg handled this was cowardly and highly unprofessional. I am very disappointed and feel that he took advantage of us.

Ben came out and gave me a few ideas and since those ideas sort of mirrored my own ideas, we came to an agreement.

I can honestly and enthusiastically reccommend this company.

I can't recommend Austin Gardeners enough! Manuel Soto, the owner, truly has a gift. His artistic…read moreeye and deep understanding of landscaping completely transformed our yard into something beautiful and functional. They rejuvenated our side yards, completely transformed our backyard, and built a stunning outdoor kitchen for us. We've been struggling for years with tricky elevation and irrigation issues along the sides of our house, and Manuel really understood the problem and offered a great solution. His design was not only practical but also visually stunning. We had a pool put in the backyard by Cody Pools and alone it would not be the paradise that it is! The pool is beautiful, but the landscaping truly created a personal paradise! We can't forget about the outdoor kitchen. They built exactly what we wanted and precisely installed all the appliances. What a dream! His crews showed up each day ready to work hard--they put in long hours with care, efficiency, and professionalism. Every person on the team was skilled, respectful, and clearly took pride in their work. If you're looking for someone who combines creativity with technical expertise, Austin Gardeners is the team to call. We're beyond happy with the results!

Travis was a life saver by installing our landscaping for our new custom home in time for move-in…read morewhen it turned out we did not have landscaping included in our project. From the first meeting, he was professional and took the project seriously. He started with a drone photo overhead and created a design with our architect's plan. Travis worked with us to design a drought-tolerant landscape with a combination of astroturf and xeriscape, as well as limestone paver walkways with black granite and black steel edging to go with the aesthetics of our modern ranch. Our third party inspector noted that many landscape companies do not weld the steel edging to the stakes, but Travis's crew welded all of the connections and the steel seems thicker than what we had at our previous home. We chose Thrive because of other Google reviews combined with our interactions with Travis during the quote and design process. We found the same to be true as other reviewers, which was his crew was very positive, helpful, energetic, and some of the hardest workers on our project. They were the first to arrive in the morning, worked hard and fast all day, and stayed often until dark. We truly appreciated the hustle, and the quality and beauty of the finished product and would not hesitate recommending Thrive to anyone in need of landscape services.

I submitted a detailed quote request through Thrive's website and received only: "Thanks. But we…read moreare not taking on new work now." I completely understand being booked, but if you're not accepting new projects, that should be stated on the website rather than having potential customers complete a quote form only to be immediately rejected. Also, a more professional and helpful response, perhaps indicating when they may be accepting new work or suggesting I reach back out at a later date, would have been appreciated.

Agave provides front lawn service through our HOA. The contract is fairly new, and I thought no…read morecompany could be worse than the previous company. Agave proved me wrong. Unfortunately, we're forced to continue service with them due to the HOA situation. They have left numerous ruts in our yard. They trampled my Mistflower while pruning shrubs. They have repeatedly mowed over the blooms of my red yucca. They also mowed over a salvia. They have now butchered my sage twice. The HOA claims to have told them to leave it alone, but I put up a "do not trim" sign just to be safe. None of that helped. Someone came to my house to apologize for trampling my plants, but the apology is meaningless if they aren't going to improve their service. We were going to add in additional plant beds this fall, but it's not worth it to spend money on plants that Agave will just destroy. If you have native plants, I would definitely avoid Agave. Even if you have just basic turf grass, be prepared for deep ruts and uneven cuts.

There are certainly things to like about Agave. One of their managers, Mas Owen, is knowledgeable…read moreabout plants and has a good eye for design. He also provides digital renditions so you can visualize what your yard could look like--if everything goes ideally. The key phrase there, unfortunately, is "if everything goes ideally." I signed a one-year contract for "full" front-yard maintenance at about $500 a month. That's not cheap, but I was willing to pay for comprehensive service because my wife and I both love the look of a well-kept yard, even though we lack the time and expertise to maintain one ourselves. You can probably guess where this is going: the experience didn't live up to the promise. We often had to chase Mas and his team to follow through on even basic commitments, such as installing new flowering plants specified in the contract. This became a routine--roughly twice a month. When we called to check in, we'd usually hear excuses like "the plants are back ordered." To make matters worse, Agave's internal communication is fragmented. You don't get a single point of contact--you get several. One person handles tree and shrub treatments, another deals with the irrigation system, a third manages billing, and sometimes a fourth shows up for "general maintenance." It's up to you to coordinate among them, follow up on loose ends, and ensure that everyone's on the same page. For a company that charges premium rates, that lack of organization is both surprising and frustrating. The final straw came when the finished yard looked nothing like the renditions. When I brought this up, Amy (one of several Agave staffers) said, "Well, the renditions are how things look when everything goes ideally--things may not." I wish I had responded, "Well, I pay $500 a month if things go ideally--things may not." Another major frustration was Agave's relentless upselling. About once a week, they'd recommend additional services--often things that seemed like they should have been covered* under "full maintenance," but were apparently left out to increase revenues. For instance, despite having weed and insect control as part of the plan, when weeds persisted, I was told, "That's not covered--you'll need to replace the entire lawn with new sod." Needless to say, that would have cost thousands of dollars. Likewise, when our crepe myrtles had an aphid infestation, we were charged $129 each time they sprayed--scheduled twice a month--with no guarantee of when the issue would be resolved. If anything ever sounded like a money pit, this was it. It's been about four months since I canceled the contract. Recently, I noticed that one of the dwarf crepe myrtles they had planted had died. I texted Mas, and he sent one of his team members (Matt) to look at it. Matt said they wouldn't replace the plant because the contract had been canceled--which is fair--but then tried to suggest that I should have ordered more plants for a full hedge. When I pointed out that I had followed Mas's original recommendations and renditions, he changed his story and blamed the irrigation system, adding that the plants would fill out in two years if I fixed it. All in all, my experience with Agave was disappointing. While they talk a good game about design and plant expertise, the follow-through, communication, and accountability just weren't there. Between the constant upselling, lack of ownership, and the need to manage multiple points of contact yourself, Agave ended up being far more hassle than help. Unfortunately, I found the team to be less than transparent, and the service far from worth the price.
