These guys responded immediately, showed up the next morning on time, did the work they said they were doing to do, made sure all of the roots were gone, cleaned up and went on to their next job. Highly recommend-responsive, fair pricing, nice guys!

Elmer and his crew did a fantastic job on my retaining wall & plant border, also removing a good size fern & pigme palm. Will definitely use J&R again!

J&R landscaping was a pleasure to work with. They kept me appraised of every step in the process and had great attention to detail. My construction manager Hector had high standards and made sure every aspect of the work was perfect. I had a fence installed and brick work done as well as yard clean up. They were reasonably priced and knew their business. I would absolutely use them again.

Elmer was very responsive and has a good knowledge of CA native plants and my design for drought tolerant planting. His crew was efficient and capable. I will continue to use his services and I highly recommend.

Prompt with a professional team who paid attention to detail and did an excellent job removing old fence and installing a new redwood one. Not lowest bid but worth the cost. Would highly recommend and use again.
