Gustavo did an amazing job in renovating my backyard. He added new sod and irrigation, planting, mulching and added a water fountain. The water fountain installation was very complex as it was not installing using a water fountain kit. Due to the size weight of the rocks we had to use aquablocks to supports those heavy rocks. He did an amazing job in installation the water fountain, build a very rock solid foundation to support and hold the rocks. Very quality work! He is very accommodating in making any changes to the original design, and he was also very transparent about the pricing for any change request. He is really very nice to work with. We will definitely hire him again and refer to our friends and family.

Details: Residential • Small (less than 1,000 sq ft) • Installed onto bare soil • No clearing needed prior to sod installation • I will provide the sod

I thought all I needed was a replacement for a leaking valve. Gus’ communications and punctuality was awesome. Doing a total inspection of our 25 year old back yard system, he showed me many other REAL issues with my system. He was not creating work, but wanted to fix actual issues that I did not notice. Quickly he provided a quote to big trenches to replace the entire back yard irrigation system and another quote to replace the irrigation system and entire yard. I’m so glad to replace irrigation and the yard. Gus and his team worked so hard and so professionally. I have a far superior irrigation system and a new beautiful lawn. My dogs are also extremely happy with the new lawn.

Gus, a very knowledgeable landscaper, is a perfectionist with his work. He and his team treated every detail as very important… from getting everything prepared, level, sprinklers adjusted perfectly, beautiful pebbles, lighting, and healthy grass. True professionals.

Gus and his crew helped redo our front yard. He helped clean up the yard, installed new artificial turf, new plants and set up drip irrigation. The project also involved extending the existing concert walkway in addition to adding a new walkway. His team went above and beyond in making sure that the project completed on time. They usually start early in the morning and stayed long enough, on some days even late into the day, to make sure to ensure that the project stuck to the plan. Rain or shine, the crew always showed up! All through the project, we felt that the team wanted to do a good job and not just complete the work for the sake of it. There were multiple instances when we were waiting on some materials and Gus and his crew were flexible to accommodate our schedule, even though they had moved on to other projects. The only suggestion I would make for future clients is to make sure you communicate your requirements clearly with Gus. There definitely is a slight challenge getting this across clearly, but once we were on the same page, things were extremely smooth! I would gladly recommend Gus to anyone for their landscaping work.
