    John and the team were recommended to us by our friends, who had John work on multiple projects for them, so I knew I could trust him on his work and the competitiveness of his price. From the beginning, John was very responsive, would make time to meet with us to discuss the plan, and was able to start exactly when we needed and finish on time without any issues. John did a great job with our backyard, from professional concrete with the color and stamping of our choice, to beautiful plants and trees. I also know that if anything, I can always call John and he will be there to advise or fix whatever is needed. I am looking forward to having John work on more projects for us!

    Synthetic lawn, steps, plants and rocks. Tore out lawn and large tree.

    I hired Tellez Landscapers to redo my front yard. I had the tree removed as its roots were damaging stuff. I had the lawn removed. They came out and did an amazing job. The job was complete in 3 days. I had them put in steps, synthetic lawn, plants rock etc. They were professional, hardworking and efficient. The crew always showed up on time and worked hard the entire day. The bonus was their prices were much more reasonable than their competitors.

    Our yard came out better than we could have imagined. John and his entire team were a pleasure to work with every step of the way. John was knowledgeable on every aspect we needed to build the vision we had for our backyard and gave us helpful insights to help us make our final decisions. We got quotes for a few landscapers that were astronomical in comparison to the quote we received from Tellez and their quality far exceeded their cost. Our backyard was completed within a week and we have already started recommending Tellez to our friends and family. Will use them again at any future house we have!

    I am extremely satisfied with the professionalism and workmanship that went into transforming my backyard. My wife found Tellez Landscapes on Yelp actually after we interviewed 4 other contractors and was getting nowhere, no quotes and half the time no call backs. John came over and we had a great interview; long story short, he never gave up on our "vision". Instead of saying we were out of budget, John figured out how to give us our new backyard and do it within our budget (after a few meetings). John and his crew came in and kicked butt for 8 days, went above and beyond expectations and delivered a glorious backyard. I highly recommend Tellez Landscapes, John and his crew!

    My mother-in-law used Tellez Landscapes and they did a fabulous job. So we called them and they did another fabulous job. John was very responsive and knowledgeable. All my neighbors love my yard. The artificial turf is great. 99% Maintenance free. Bambi

    I am so pleased to get to write the first review for Tellez Landscapes and Jose Tellez! We worked with Jose over the past few months do completely re-landscape our front yard and back yard. I mean COMPLETELY. Our backyard was a swamp that did not drain, we had a dying tree, and our patio had sunk. Our front yard had a too-small driveway, exposed tree roots, and broken sprinklers. Throughout the job, Jose was amazing to work with. He was very patient and listened to all of my (neurotic) concerns. He was responsive and quickly made changes and adjustments as we went through the process. I had never done a landscaping project and their are so many decisions to make. Stamped concrete? Colored concrete? Retaining wall stone choices? Types and colors of gravel? Jose had tons of pictures of his prior work, samples of materials, product books, and he was always willing to look at and explain different options that I had seen online and was considering. He had great suggestions and was also listened when I wanted something other than what he suggested. It was also important to me that Jose was a licensed contractor, as I would never take on such a large project with someone that was not licensed. At the end of this project, I could not be happier. Seriously. Everyone that has seen the yard is amazed. In total, the project included re-grading the front and back yards, completely new drainage in the front and back, new 3-car driveway, paved RV pad, 3 areas of structural/sitting wall, new sod, new plants, new sprinkler system including sprinkler heads and drip lines, removal of old drainage and sprinkler systems, removal of old dead tree roots, new fence on all sides with gates, new front porch and walkway including new stairs, new landscape lighting and fixtures, and a very happy customer. One of the best compliments was from an AT&T contractor who was working on the neighbor's house. He said he was looking for concrete flaws to point out and he couldn't find any. We also had the neighbor's roofing contractor ask who did our fence! Jose's crew was professional and friendly. They worked quickly, but were still meticulous, and cleaned up at the end of each day. I don't hesitate recommending Jose and have already done so to several friends.

    Front yard

    We have used Tellez Landscapes for both our front and backyards, we had a new build and both the front and back were blank spaces. Most recently they completed our front yard and we couldn't be happier. First they were able to start a full month earlier than initially expected. The price for the value was fantastic. We had received quotes on our backyard (at John's encouragement) and Tellez was thousands of dollars cheaper. John is very communicative through the whole process and is so friendly (also he programmed our sprinkler system for us and walked through how to use it). Jose and his team are very detail oriented and make sure to clean up. If we ever do any other landscaping projects we are hands down going with Tellez and if you are reading this you should too!

    Pool equipment enclosure

    John and his team are fantastic! John helped us revise an existing landscape design to something that fit our home and lifestyle. His team installed step lighting in our sunken fire pit, drainage, sprinkler system, lawn, path lighting, up lighting along with the rest of the landscaping around our yard and new pool. They exceeded my expectations throughout the entire project with great communication and Johns attention to detail is exceptional. I highly recommend Tellez Landscapes and will definitely work with John and his team again on any future projects.

    Concrete S-curve after it had been fixed

    We initially hired John to help us design our backyard and were pleased with the blueprint that he drew out. John recommended using Jose with Tellez Landscapes saying they would get the job done correctly. Trusting they could follow our design, we decided to go with them for our concrete. The Tellez crew did a decent job on most of the concrete but unfortunately did not follow the design. All of the curved corners met at points rather than moving smoothly from one line to another. (See pictures). When this problem was mentioned to Jose he argued that it looked fine. I'm guessing he ran out of bender board for the curves so instead of doing it right and buying more bender board, he tried to make it work. After repeatedly saying we were unhappy with the work, Jose said he would try to fix it. The worst area of the concrete was the s-curve which we sadly had to explain to him how to fix by grinding out 2 inches of concrete. The finished result was still not what it should have been in the first place but is at least less of an eye sore. We decided to go with another company for the rest of the yard and have been much happier with the final product (and a lower price). In short, if you choose to go with Tellez Landscapes you may need to micro-manage the process to get decent results.

It looked good for about one year and then reverted back to what was there before! They had just done cosmetic work, not rehab! Four years ago, my brother had Master Pavers do landscaping and pavers on his property. I have watched it "grow" and it is as good as it was the day they finished the job. July 2026 I contacted M.P. and scheduled an estimate. We agreed on what needed to be done - which was a huge project involving replacing drainage system, irrigation system, tearing out 2 gates, walkways, patio, front porch, and stairs, removing dead plants and lawn and more! Work started a little over a week later and took 8 weeks to complete. Our front and back yard is transformed! We cannot believe how beautiful it looks. Lucy's design was perfect for our space and needs. We also want to give a shout out to the men who did the work! They are incredible and worked under difficult conditions (days that were over 100') in the sun. The very last thing they did was "clean up" and that was impressive as well, because the "tear out" was very messy! When they left, everything looked perfect. It was not "cheap" - but the thoroughness, the design, the quality of the work was excellent! And it will still be excellent 15+ years from now!!!

After complaining, they replanted them days later but the plants did not survive. They also damaged my drip system (they did fix it after I brought to their attention) also, the workers left trash in the yard. John was kind and understanding but I will continue to tell my neighbors to stay away from them.

We had been sitting on a landscape design and needed someone to bring the vision to reality. Brandon immediately translated our plan into his software so we could discuss options and take on suggestions for improvement. He was quick and precise in making adjustments to appease our HOA and fit within our budget. The crew was meticulous in their work on the yard. If it was on the plan it was replicated in the yard. If we saw something that needed a slight adjustment they were happy to accommodate. I recall a situation where we needed a concrete walkway to go wider around an AC unit. The crew quickly responded by forming a wider path. Nate was great at scheduling project dates and also helped to make sure our AC units were reinstalled in a timely manner after our concrete was poured. We were relieved to have them up and running again before a forecasted heat wave arrived. Brandon was there at every stage of the project and was always quick to respond. He was at the nursery with us when it came time to choose the plants, making suggestions for plants that best fit our specific environment. During the middle of construction a rain storm hit our area and we had some concerns about how the yard would handle it in an unfinished state. He came out late at night to make sure the drainage would be okay until the storm passed. Upon completion of the project he was there to make sure everything was tidied up after the final walkthrough. If someone were to ask me for a recommendation on a yard install or remodel I would surely tell them to call Reliable Landscape and Design.

    I ignored the 1 star reviews, here's why you shouldn't:…read more Unless you are willing to double check every plant they plant, and clean up after them, find someone else. I trusted them with my hard earned money. It wasn't enough to motivate them to do a decent job. We spent thousand and got the laziest, most low effort job I've ever had done on anything in my house. Kevin seems to know what he's talking about, and is easy to work with. But when it came time for work to be done, all bets were off. Do not be fooled. Here's what happened. A couple of years ago we paid a lot of money to have a lot of plants planted and our watering system overhauled because we were having watering issues. Planting - many of the plants died because they were planted in unsuitable spots (spots they chose) and many plants have never really died but never grown or looked healthy. I finally decided to dig those ones up and I KID YOU NOT, many of them weren't even planted in the ground. They were planted in the mulch, sitting on top of the weed barrier (see picture). One had half the root ball just exposed. More than one plant was planted with the large plastic plant label in the ground blocking the roots. At the end, they said they couldn't bury the new drip lines because there wasn't enough mulch, so I went out and spent 45 minutes doing it no problem. They were so lazy that if they couldn't dump a bunch of new mulch to cover the lines, they weren't interested. Worst of all, they didn't even fix the irrigation system I needed them to fix. The Watering - A huge concern we had was the watering system since many plants were being over-watered and dying from rot. Once they finished their work I doubled checked with the foreman that the problem areas where fixed and he assured me they were. Guess what, they didn't even touch it! They just left the system I put in and all the plants died due to over watering. I have since found many more issues. Please be warned. Like I said, I trusted them with thousand of my hard earned money. Money that meant a lot to me. I guess it wasn't enough to get them to do a respectable job. EDIT - Kevin's response is typical and should worry customers. Its: 1. I'm so sorry you weren't more aggressive about being on top of our numerous mistakes. You expect some mistakes but when the errors are so incompetent (plugging in emitters backwards so they drown you plants) its absurd to put it on the customer to double check ALL work. 2. He clearly didn't read the review because that would have answered the questions he is asking. 3. I mention why it took me so long to respond. I mention the watering problem and that it had nothing to do with equipment failure. And I mention that the problem wasn't plants being planted for proper drainage, but rather not even planted in the soil. Literally on top of weed barrier and buried in mulch. 4. Finally, I didn't say I buried the irrigation in dirt, I was able to easily bury it in the mulch that his team said was too difficult. AND I did have him come back to replace plants that died immediately. He worked hard to convince to leave the sickly ones still in to give them more time. BE CAREFUL. Seems like he has a few teams and some are great. But his response to my complaints should concern everyone. He should have said, "I am so sorry we missed the mark here, can I call you to discuss?"

It was clear he understood what was going to be required for my twice monthly service. I have a yard that requires very little maintenance except for winter pruning of shrubs and 3 small crepe myrtle trees. It has taken them 3 months to respond to my requests to do what they promised. When the two workers come each time, I discuss what is required based on my agreement, and several times they have told me "next time." After several visits and the "next time" as promised does not happen, I had a talk with the workers. So this last time they responded with pruning 2 of the trees, butchering them, and the 3rd tree they left have unpruned! Seriously??? Also the two "next time" other items were not completed at all and they left their tools laying in my yard and left when I was not watching. To see if I could correct these issues, I emailed the office asking to cancel my remaining monthly service. No response in a week. I have left 3 phone messages in the last week with no response. Update: Did get a phone call from owner. He apologized. He said that his employees were not doing the job that he specified to them with written instructions. I did cancel the contract. The owner refunded my last month payment. I wonder if he will fire the non-performing employees. I have a low maintenance property. I'm just going to do all the landscape work myself.
