They responded to my request for a quote quickly. We wanted a complete landscaping project, including a sprinkler system and a deck. Unfortunately, they only do the landscape portion, so we hired another company for the deck. They don't do sprinkler systems, either. In the end, we went with another company that could do the landscaping and the in-ground sprinklers together in the same project. If it was landscaping only, I would have been happy to try them. Kellye came out to our house even though it's an hour from where she is as soon as she could, took measurements and answered all the questions that we had at the time and listened carefully to what we wanted. I would certainly recommend considering them when you want to get bids on a landscape job. read more

This company is for high end jobs. They are thorough and helpful. I would recommend them to anyone looking for professional landscaping.

We just had our bushes removed and replaced by Kelly and Devin . I personally would highly recommend them. There workers are very proffessional and take pride in their work. We will definitely use them again.. read more

Your home is usually your greatest investment. But it's more that a that... it's your home! You live there! You can't expect every contractor to have the same level of care for your home that you do but when you do find that contractor, keep them! Devin worked with us on expanding our old one car driveway to this beautiful two car one. But in our discussions, we told him how we wanted a gate and would likely need a new fence as well. It became clear we would need a new retaining wall to make this happen the way we wanted it to. He was patient and asked the right questions to help us connect the dots for what it would take to finish the project as we imagined. Affordable, on time, courteous and responsive... I hope to work them again! read more

Absolutely amazing how quick and efficient Mr. Burgess and his team were. I was given a free estimate, a fair quote, and they completed the job very quickly and I look forward to using his services in the future! read more

Team built a retaining wall for our property and everything went smooth and quick. They did a great job and communicated throughout the full project. read more

Mistakes Were Made: We wanted pavers installed to extend the width of our driveway and a trash can pad. 1) Materials: Quality material, however, the wrong pavers were installer. The owner brought paver options to my house so I could chose the paverI wanted (that was good). To be fair, the pavers looked similar, with the main exception being one is textured, the other is smooth. I chose smooth, they installed textured. 2) Installation: Not a fan of the installation method used. They use this method to ensure the pavers don't shift AT ALL. It could work, but my expectation is for pavers be installed flush with the grass and surrounding landscape, not raised. If you prefer raised, I would suggest getting decorative pavers to cover up the exposed concrete. 3) Repair: They were responsive to my concerns and within 3 days uninstalled the pavers and laid sod in the area, per my preference. They were willing to install the original pavers I choose. However, since I'm not a fan of raised pavers, I choose to uninstall. The pros: The workmanship on the project was excellent, they are responsive, they will fix mistakes, dynamic invoicing (every time I Zelled a payment I received an update invoice with the new balance owed) The cons: Extra steps involved: 1) Go over HOW the pavers will be stalled when Kelley comes out and does the site survey to ensure they will be installed to your expectations. 2) When the pavers arrive onsite, look at them immediately to determine they are the pavers you chose. You shouldn't need to do this once a paver is decided on, this is why it's a con. 3) Because the pavers were raised around 10 inches off the ground for the trash can garage going through the gate, they cut the bottom of our gate door, so now the gate door needs replacing or repairing. This project cost us money, not just the required upfront cost, but also in replacing the gate door. The lost money is why this review is a 3 instead of a 4 . read more

Looks like I'm the first to review Burgess, so huzzah! I have a home that needs a little love and TLC. Probably more than a little if I'm being honest. Some things I can do, some I can't. The retaining wall in my back yard was in sad shape. The wife and I are seriously considering moving in the next year, or so, and thought replacing it would be a simple summer project. When researching the type and cost of materials, pricing out some tools I'd have to buy etc... I realized the cost was going to be much more than I originally thought. At this point I decided to look into hiring someone that actually had experience doing this since the cost was getting comparable of me doing it vs a pro. This is where I turned to Yelp to find contractors that could give me an estimate. Of the three I was put in touch with, Burgess was by far the most responsive. They came out (I believe the next day) to discuss the project, see what my expectations were and give me their estimate. Now keep in mind, I rely heavily on customer reviews when doing most anything online and Burgess had 0 reviews on Yelp. I was a bit apprehensive initially but felt much more comfortable after talking with Devin (and I think his wife). Watching them work gave me a solid impression of their competence and I felt this would be a good company to do business with. While looking into replacing the retaining wall I was simultaneously going through an agonizingly slow process of working through an insurance claim to fix the foundation of the house which had been damaged due to some leaks under the slab. Once Devin have me his quote for the wall I told him I was going to have to wait until I knew what the insurance company determined my out of pocket expenses would be for the foundation. The quote Burgess gave me was more than it would have cost me to do the job myself, obviously, but still very reasonable. Eventually, insurance finished what they needed to do (a month after I initially reached out for quotes) and I let Devin know I was ready to move forward with Burgess replacing the retaining wall. After a brief delay due to weather, they came out and completed the job in one day when it was initially expected to take two (he pulled some extra help from jobs that were still to wet to be worked on). Devin was extremely flexible on scheduling and the price. I had a very easy time communicating, mostly via text messaging. They're a local, family owned business and made the entire process as smooth as possible. Although I don't see myself needing the services of a landscaping company very often in my future, Burgess will definitely be the people I turn to first when I do! read more

6x6 stone retaining wall (about 18 inches high, 20 yards long) exceeded expectations. The team began and completed the retaining wall over two days. Punctual. Great communication. High quality work. Kellye and Devin's team tore out and disposed of the 30-year-old old retaining wall made of railroad ties. They leveled the ground and laid the gravel and concrete base with interleaving drainage pipes. The stones they used were more solid and beautiful than I expected. They left the worksite cleaner than before, and the entire team was respectful and friendly. read more

Met Burgess Services at San Antonio Home and Garden show in 2023. Devin sold me on their work product within 10 minutes . Solid business plan, trustworthy, and dependable. Price was right! Burgess service's recognizes those who serve/served. I appreciate that. That's important when you are on fixed income like me! They Started working within minutes of arrival and finished when promised. Team worked as though the project was on their own home. Awesome!!! Would recommend them on both small and large projects Six stars on a five star scale! Way to go team Burgess read more

Following my post for finding someone to plant my trees I was contacted by Burgess. They scheduled an appointment and were reliable and communication was on point. Following our appointment I received a quote, instructions on marking our area by contacting 811 (their advisement which was appreciate), and was schedule with a small deposit for good faith. They followed up 2 days prior and showed up when they said they would be here and did a great job! They even did a couple of other jobs for us (same day) for an additional fee but what a relief!! Friendly, professional and always consulted us with decisions making if there was the smallest question. We are grateful to have used them, will refer friends (already referred neighbor) and will Use them again for future jobs with pleasure and confidence read more

The guy who answers the phone refused to give me a cost for the labor of installing mulch and soil. That's very dodgy and unethical. He said he could only quote a whole project. read more

The alley behind our house was deeply rutted by truck traffic over the years. I worked with Kellye on a proposal within my budget to backfill the ruts with road base. Within a week Devin and his crew completed the job. Their entire staff are polite and strive to do a good job. Pricing seemed reasonable for the work and material and I never felt pressured or misled about any of the work. Give Devin or Kellye a call if you need landscape work, you won't be disappointed. read more

I was looking to hire a professional landscaping company to come and do an entire rehaul of my front/back yards. I read the reviews for Burgess Services and thought... "I'll give them a shot". I sent them an email to request a quote. They responded back that the earliest availability to come to do an estimate was two weeks later (which I thought was a little bit too long, but I gave them the benefit of the doubt). Then, on the day they were supposed to be there...after I already took off work for the day, I get a message ONE HOUR before our scheduled appointment from the representative who said she wasn't feeling well and needed to reschedule. I reached out to the office manager to request someone else come out (since I was already off from work) and received no response. I sent a follow-up text stating that I would be taking my business elsewhere, and the response I got back was "Sorry, I'm just an office manager". I can't speak to how well this company does landscaping, but their inability to manage their business is pretty telling to me. At the end of the day, I'll be taking $10K+ business somewhere else. read more

We used Burgess this week to clean up our yards, do a lawn dressing, treat some diseased trees, fortify our soil, and pull up and plant many trees. They were outstanding. Kellye and Devin were a pleasure to work with - very quick to respond with great communication. I had received multiple quotes and Kellye's wealth of knowledge blew everyone out of the water. She spent a long time with us with each visit answering so many of questions patiently, without us ever feeling rushed. She really took the time to listen to what we needed and envisioned for the job and did everything she could to make it happen, and their prices were reasonable. Their team showed up on time and worked really hard both days they were here. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs any sort of yard work, and have plans to use them again for future jobs. read more

What a total makeover! They did a fantastic job with the budget given and made our backyard into a wonderful area to sit, relax, and play with our daughter. They were always easy to contact and handled everything very professionally. Would highly recommend for landscaping services! read more

They installed a French drain for me to stop the flooding in my yard. They also disposed of the gross, moldy dirt that was in the flooded area. They also put some nice stone embedded in cement around my flower bed to keep the mulch from going onto my sidewalk and put a weed barrier in my flower bed so that my flower bed always looks clean. read more

Could not recommend Burgess Services enough. They helped transform our new house into a home my family and I can be proud of and happy in for a very long time. We had them redo nearly our entire front and back yards to include; tearing down and rebuilding a deck with the addition of a screened in porch, created a fire pit area, walkway with pavers from back to front and finally all new grass. They even helped with repairing our outdated and malfunctioning sprinkler system. The estimate was free and fair. Communication was great, always texted prior to heading over. Military discount was a plus! From design to completion they truly knocked it out of the park. Many thanks to the entire crew! Hire them with confidence. I have spoken. read more

Devin and his team did a fantastic job removing multiple trees from our yard. They gave us a free quote, offered a military discount and for the job they were on time, friendly, cleaned up the yard and worked quickly. Devin was great at communicating with me from beginning to end of the project and I'd highly recommend them. Thanks y'all! read more

Great service! There was a fire in the green belt behind our property. It quickly burned through our back yard and front yard. Our fence was considerably damaged and 80 percent of the grass was burned. Devin responded quickly and provided a detailed quote for our insurance company. Fence, sod, mulch and plant replacement. The result has been better than new. His crews were true professionals. They can do it all. You won't be disappointed. My experience was 5 stars all the way! Check out the before and after photos (20-24 March) on the company Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/burgessservices210/ read more

Devin and Kellye were extremely responsive friendly and informative. We had a palm tree that in desperate need of a trim and a tree we wanted removed. They came out the same day I contacted them and provided a quote for that work and some additional cleanup around the yard including two big old cactus by the front door. They came early the next morning and everything was done by noon! Glad we called when we did because we had a storm blow through a few days later that would have blown palm parts around the neighborhood. Will definitely call them again when we need more work done. read more
