    Steve T.

    When my wife and I purchased our home in Folsom, one of our top priorities was the backyard. While the house was once a showcase yard, years of neglect and foreclosure had left it in a sad state. At almost a third acre, with varying terrain, and an existing pool, we had some challenges on our vision. Our vision was to have a yard that felt like a vacation, and priorities were drought-tolerance, low maintenance, and we wanted to do alot of the work ourselves. We hired a well-known local landscape design & construction company to complete the design, which we were very happy with. However, the "turn key" cost of the design was approximately $60,000. We knew we wanted to do a lot of the work ourselves, and "value engineered" the design to get the costs aligned with our budget. We took our drawings to several highly rated contractors for bids, and broke out the scopes of work such as concrete for separate bids. Ryan McConnell, owner of Turfman, came to my attention from a coworker who recently completed a project with him. Our original intent was to have him bid only the irrigation and sod, however when we met with Ryan he convinced us to let him bid the entire project. Ryan promptly provided an estimate, which was broken down thoroughly so we could decide what items to add or delete to meet our budget. Ryan bid the concrete portion of the project (approximately 1,200 sf of stamped colored concrete) which I honestly did not expect him to have competitive pricing. His quote from his subcontractor beat the other four estimates I had, and included alot of extras which others did not. In the end, I decided to have Turfman install all drainage, walls, concrete, sod, and irrigation per the drawings I had completed for nearly a third of the original budget. We held off on installing the planting (the least expensive part of the project actually) until next year due to budget concerns. Ryan has no problem breaking the project down to whatever size needed. Ryan is the owner of the company and very responsive, patient, creative, and reliable. He does what he says he is going to do, when he says he will do it. What impressed me most is his work ethic, and his employees. All his employees are people you feel comfortable with on your property, and are respectable and clean up after themselves. it's not uncommon to see Ryan himself on your project with a shovel and broom working alongside them. Ryan's company, Turfman, is not a huge company like many others in town, so you get the direct attention of the company owner. I highly recommend him, and will be working with him again in the future for additional landscape planting.

    Very happy with the turf installed at my house. The job was on the upper slope of my backyard and irregular shape. The install was done in 3 days from start to finish. My parents liked the workmanship and decided to have them install turf at his house with a similar positive experience and outcome.

    Stamped Concrete

    Ryan, Jake and their crew are all amazing! My mom said best landscaping she has seen. My husband and I agree! They did most of our new neighborhood for a reason. Not only did they have fair pricing, their quality and speed was surprising. The concrete stamping is beautiful. And the drain system worked since there was not one small puddle, even after heavy rain. I highly recommend them. They also know how to work with HOAs.

    The Turf Man, Ryan McConnel, remodeled our back yard almost 3 years ago. His foresight shows through in the way our yard has developed and matured over that time. The space has knit together. It is multi-layered in height and depth and as the select plants have grown there have been various spaces created to add our own little personalized details of seating areas and ornaments. The lighting system Ryan installed is dramatic and seemingly bullet proof. It is also very economical and easy to adjust. He also installed an irrigation system that was expandable. The watering system feeds all the plants that were installed at the remodel (about 32- we only lost 3) and we have continued what he set up for us, a second system to feed our raised beds vegetable garden in an area the Turf Man set aside specifically for that purpose. It was and has been a great experience.

    My beautiful yard!

    We just had our front yard completely redone by The Turf Man. I had contacted them over a year ago but dragged my feet on getting this done. Ryan understood my vision and had fantastic ideas. He and his crew were friendly, professional and did everything in a timely matter. The materials they use are top of the line and the concrete job was truly a work of art. But the magic is their turf work!! They answered my endless questions and left the jobsite always clean! My yard is perfect! A show stopper!

    my backyard before The Turf Man came to help!

    Ryan and his crew are amazing!!! they are extremely professional and obviously take pride in their work. A few months ago I decided I was going to do a Owner Managed pool build with the assistance of another local business. Basically the proposal was that this company would provide me with the pool design and required plans to get a permit thru the county, as well as bids from the subcontractors I would then need to work with along the way to complete my pool construction. Basically I would then act as the General contractor, organize scheduling, schedule required inspections etc. Some of the contractors I worked with were ok some were horrible but they all had one thing in common, they were there to do the least amount of work possible to get paid. They left my property looking a mess and several key issues with the build were not addressed by anyone since "it wasn't in their bid/scope of work". (drainage & irrigation... WHICH ARE PRETTY DANG IMPORTANT) I was beginning to feel overwhelmed like I had bitten off more than I could chew. Here I sat with a gigantic hole in my yard and no clear end in site. That's when The Turf Man stepped in... Ryan came over to my mess of a yard with a calm, positive attitude and an immediate plan to get my project finished. He provided a reasonable bid and stuck to it. He and his crew were on time, professional and more than willing to talk thru the project with me every step of the way. Now my family and I are happily enjoying our amazing yard. I HIGHLY RECOMEND YOU USE THEM FOR YOUR NEXT PROJECT.

Brought his measuring unicycle and didn't measure a thing. Of the 4-5 landscapers that have come already, I am getting written estimates from all of them.

To be clear, the other landscapers also offer the design aspect, and they/I plan on doing the design piece. I am just looking for estimates first along with meeting you and feeling your enthusiasm for the project. After meeting and texting with you, and reviewing your photos, my job may have been out of scope for you. I wanted a lot of fun stuff; bocce ball, basketball, inground trampoline, and a lot of ground cover and plants. I will give 4 stars instead of three, as I posted all of my wants in my Yelp request, so my expectation is that you will come ready.

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.

We signed a $67,000 landscaping contract with this company in March. While we understood the initial weather-related delays, the way our project was handled afterward was extremely disappointing and unprofessional. On our scheduled project start date (May 26th) no one showed up and we received no phone call, email, or update. After taking time off work to be home for the project, we had to call the company ourselves, only to be met with confusion and surprise, as if they were unaware our project was even scheduled to begin. They then scrambled to contact employees and send someone out later that day for a "walk through." This is something that should have been completed well before the scheduled start date. We were then assured work would begin the following morning at 8:00 AM. By 10:00 AM, no one had arrived and again we had received no communication. When we called for answers, an employee told us the owner and our project advisor should have already been at our house to speak with us. That had never happened. When we calmly expressed our concerns about the repeated lack of communication, the no call/no show, and the fact that we had now missed multiple days of work for nothing, the owner, Brandon, immediately responded by asking if we wanted to cancel the project. We explained that cancellation was not our goal. We simply wanted accountability, communication, and follow-through. Brandon then stated, "I don't like the tone you have. I've been in the landscaping business since the 90s. I have 9 other projects going on and I don't like your tone, so we can just go ahead and cancel this project." At no point were we disrespectful. We were frustrated customers trying to understand why a major project had been mishandled from the start. For a company handling projects of this size and cost, we expected professionalism, communication, and BASIC reliability. Unfortunately, our experience has been the exact opposite. I do not recommend doing business with this company.
