Marcello, who runs rebel gardeners, is an amazing person. He is super smart, nice, and efficient. He perfectly assembled the six pieces of furniture. I could not be more pleased. He was very fair in his price . In other words, great value. If I have any additional work in the future, he would be the person I would call.

I can't say enough about how grateful I am to Rebel. They were efficient, on time and went above and beyond to make my gardens beautiful. For years I tried to get anyone to pull weeds and design my very small property. NO-ONE would bother becoming because I don't have a lawn. Rebel came in and pulled every weed, trim my fig tree, transplanted bushes, perennials and laid mulch. Now I open my curtains and smile instead of crying, I plan on having them come back for fall and spring cleanup. Worth every penny I'm so happy!!! Thank you Rebel
