    Guy gives me online estimate. Then I proceed to ask and he books an appointment. Calls me 15 minutes after the appointment to tell Me he's running an hour late so we rescheduled for the following day. He doesn't show up the following day nor does he let Me know. Then proceeds to block me on Facebook and blames me saying that I canceled. Tells me he's busy and that I need to go elsewhere and pay more. I'd rather pay more for honest and reliable service. I can see why reviews are terrible.

    Best Price In Town...But You Get What You Pay For! The quote to landscape our backyard included clean up and prepping dirt for sod, fix or repair and adjust existing sprinkler system, add a drainage system and order and lay the sod...Carlos offered cash discount and a discount for dump vouchers which we did...The dirt was not prepped properly because we had weeds within a week (no response from Carlos as to what to do about this) Sprinklers were not adjusted properly some grass does not get water but our concrete gets plenty and sprinklers not working....response is we did not put the sprinklers in so not our responsibility in complete contrast of what the contract said. He way over ordered the sod but luckily he bought some of that back from us. Spots were left without sod, they did come back to fix that but there are gaps between sod pieces which leads to more weeds.

    Broken hose nozzle.

    REALLY Wish I never hired this dude. Never thought to check and see if his license was valid, FIRST mistake. Hiring him, SECOND mistake. Thinking he'd actually care that his work was shitty and want to fix it to maintain his rep, THIRD mistake. Carlos seemed cool at first but definitely like he was on something. His quote, although written down, kept changing which caused for a lot of unnecessary back and forth messaging. He offered discount for dump vouchers but I never saw that written on anything NOR did he haul off enough to need TWO vouchers, but whatever. The work was started almost 2 weeks after he said it would be. He didn't do what I asked him to do with my river rock formation and had an attitude when I was adamant about him changing it. I finally got it my way after he changed it multiple times. The ground cover under the river rock and wood chips was visible in several places and was not pinned down or secured. I was wondering why he would have the wood chips slant up my wall slightly and now I know why, because the ground cover was up against the wall and not secured down (see photos from when job completed with it covered and now that the chips are sliding down and exposing the ground cover going up my wall....CLEARLY not flat or secure). The price may have been slightly better than other companies but the headache and shitty job that accompanied it were NOT worth it!! He didn't get any weeds in the sidewalk/driveway area (minimal amount and required minimal effort) but when I asked about it he said it wasn't included in the contract. Well, neither were the dump vouchers but he had no issue taking and using those! My brand new hose nozzle was broken the last day they were there but he never responded to that message and I chose not to push the issue because I was OVER dealing with him at that point. I discovered today, 8 months after he put the DG in, that I have two fault line looking craters down the side of my yard to the sidewalk, but my drain system is supposed to go through the river rocks to the street. His response, this is due to water running and DG is not warrantied. Uhmm, never did I ask if it was under warranty as I would NEVER have you back to my property for ANY work. I would only recommend this dude to my worst enemy. His work is sub par, his attitude is cocky/negative when confronted with anything, and that's IF he even responds. Do yourself a favor, STAY AWAY from Carlos and his shitty business practices/work! Disclosure...I waited so long to write this review because I didn't want to write it based on my initial frustration so I chose to wait, relax and see if the work grew on me or was I over reacting a bit. Today I had a small exchange with him about the fault line looking areas in the side of the yard which intensified the bad taste he left in my mouth 8 months ago. That prompted me to see if he had a Yelp and, well, here we are. Once I read the other reviews I knew I had to add my experience so others would see that this is CLEARLY how he does business and treats everyone! ***Edited to add his FB message to me after seeing this and my response to him on another thread as he blocked me after messaging me so I could not reply...LAME!(see photos)***

    If you are going to insult someone and not want do the job . Make sure it's not someone who knows everyone in the Antelope valley. You won't be here working much longer if you keep that kind of unprofessional attitude. No me importa que no quieres hacer el trabajo, pero nunca hablas mal de gente . Para ser mal hablado, vas a quedar sin trabajo.

    **BEWARE OF CARLOS, HE IS A SCAM ARTIST** His License # 10023402 is FAKE. We have been working with Carlos for Approx 6 Months. First time I met him a while back, he was HIGH & provided estimate for Yard Work. We didn't do that job. After that we used carlos services several times for Mostly Cleanup & Trash Out. Recently we needed help with a roof leak at 2 of the Rental Properties, he agreed to do the work & Purchased Materials from Home Depot like 3 Tarps & other Supplies. We didn't use the tarps so he returned one after few days of getting paid & Follow up & said he couldn't return other 2 because he got it from other Home Depot which is BS. After this it became very difficult to get hold of him. He kept 2 Tarps Worth Approx $260 & didn't want to answer the phone anymore. Once in a while text response that I am busy & I will return it soon. We finally got hold of him & asked him to return the tarps so we can return it ourself. He kept the $129 Each Tarp & gave us 2 different sizes tarps one $39 & one $64. We asked Home Depot to see if Wrong tarps were sold or charged, they confirmed NO. So obviously he kept the $260 Worth of 2 Tarps & Gave is Back $104 Worth of Tarps which off-course we cant return except for credit. **BEWARE OF CARLOS, HE IS A SCAM ARTIST**

Recently my gardener as he was cutting my lawn damaged and broke off a sprinkler head that was new. As always Omar came out and had it repaired in just a few minutes. 5 ster service like no other. Thanks again. Will be keeping you in my contact list for good

I told Omar we were going to plant Cherry Laurel shrubs and a lime tree. We have an old sprinkler timer system but needed new irrigation for the new shrubs and tree along our fence. Omar stopped by to view our yard and give a quote for the work. Omar was very professional, nice, knowledgable and patient with me as I was coordinating with our gardener to plant. We had some delays with our gardener but Omar made everything smooth and easy for me to schedule his irrigation work after the planting. Omar also answered all of our pre gardener work questions & whether to add mulch before or after installing irrigation. So these photos are of the irrigation install work before mulch is added. You add mulch after irrigation. Super nice guys and the work has a 6 month warranty. Omar showed me the system & how it works after they were done. I asked many questions & he showed me how to unscrew the water filter and clean it if needed. I read his other good reviews & after meeting him for the job quote, I hired him right away. I'm extremely happy to work with such a great trustworthy team with Omar's Gardening Service. Thanks guys!!!

    Really wish I could have provided a better review for Leafs U Green. I firmly believe in supporting…read moresmall, local businesses, so obviously I was excited to come across Peter and his company on Yelp! but let this be a cautionary tale. Out the gate Peter was responsive and excited about my project. I was redoing an entire courtyard which hadn't been updated in well over 30 years. I was very clear on my expectations and did a lot of the prep work prior to him and his team coming through. Peter talked a good game; we shared our experiences with different irrigation options, plant selection and weed mitigation approaches. We both shared a desire to maintain a fair and respectful approach to this landscape remodel. Everything went great leading up to their arrival at the house to begin work. Peter did very little of the work, and his two workers were barely managed. The lead worker was sloppy and aggressive. Downright disrespectful. I had spent nearly a thousand dollars on wholesale plants and he treated them as if they were garbage that he was inconvenienced to have to plant. My requests to have Peter supervisor his labor was ineffective. Two days later and the entire job was completed to the most mediocre of standards. Because I believe firmly in paying people on time, I paid at the end of the job assuming that the work would be guaranteed. Peter wasted no time depositing the payment, but has completely ignored subsequent communications to fix the poor quality work of his lead worker. It's been four months and it's clear Peter and his business plan to ghost me. He failed to complete the agreed upon work and has made zero effort to remedy the remaining problems. Finding honest and reliable landscapers is tough going. Sadly Leafs U Green is just another landscaper looking to turn a quick buck with no regards for the quality of his work.

    Peter and his team exceeded our expectations! We cannot recommend this company enough…read more We called around for various quotes, Peter and his team were the most prompt and also most honest/fair in their quoting with a very transparent model. He had great communication and showed up when they said they would. He is also licensed/certified, which is very important! Specifically they helped with installation of a drainage system in our backyard (had water logging from heavy rains), shed removal, and aeration/seeding of our current lawn. What we were also very impressed with is he didn't try to upsell us/sell us something we didn't need. At first I wanted to replace all the grass, but he hinted that because of the landfills that could be an expensive process. I appreciate his transparency and recommendations on what works best for us financially. All in all, HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Look no further!
