A year after giving them a 5-Star review for excellent service, I contacted JW for a complete tree…read moretrimming. I'm sorry to say it might be hit or miss here. Because he (or whoever answered his phone) has missed more than once. After our appointment time(s) were confirmed with no-show & no-call, days went by. I thought "Maybe he lost his phone or lost my contact info." [crickets chirping] [more crickets chirping with an occasional bird tweet] -- First no-show. Possible miscommunication. -- Second no-show. No excuse. So here I am, back on Yelp, looking for someone who not only does the job but shows up when they say they will. Or at least calls/texts to say I'm sorry I couldn't make our appointment(s). After giving them more than enough time to redeem themselves, I didn't feel right leaving my original review without an update.

The ones that did gave me outrageous quotes to provide a service for my very small yard. Raleigh actually came and looked at my yard prior to providing a quote. I hired them to clean up and redo mulch in various beds around the yard. They gave me a fair quote, so I hired them. When I received the bill, it was significantly less the quote and the work looks great. Not only that, my very picky neighbor complimented me on the yard, the product they used, and said they did such a good job he wants to use them now. Thanks for being reliable and honest!

We started with a backyard that was essentially unusable--mostly dirt and dead grass--and ended up…read morewith a space we actually want to spend time in. They handled the full transformation: Texas native plants, fresh sod, irrigation, lighting, a new patio with poured concrete pavers, a pergola, and decking built around our above-ground pool. The result feels intentional, cohesive, and well suited to both the climate and how we use the space. We worked with their designers to develop the plan, and that process was smooth and collaborative. They listened, had good instincts, and were happy to iterate with us until the design felt right. From first contact to breaking ground took about three months, which felt reasonable given the scope. Once construction started, everything moved fast--the entire project was completed around two to three weeks. Most importantly, we're extremely happy with the outcome. The yard is beautiful and dramatically more usable than before. Jason and Nikk were a pleasure to work with throughout: friendly, proactive, communicative, with good taste and a strong sense for design. I'd happily recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade their outdoor space.

My husband James and I reached out to four different landscaping companies for a bid on a project…read moreto add gravel, place some rock along one side of our driveway, and fill a large bald spot on our lawn. While all the companies, including Southern Landscaping and Design, were nice and responsive, I feel the need to share our experience regarding their pricing. The quotes we received from the first three companies ranged between $9,000 and $11,000, which seemed reasonable for the scope of work. However, Southern Landscaping and Design came back with a quote of just over $28,000--nearly three times the amount of the other bids. I'm sure they do great work, but this level of pricing feels excessive and difficult to justify. I wanted to share this as a heads-up for anyone considering them. It's always worth getting multiple quotes to ensure you're paying a fair price.

Simply the best!!!

System Pavers are problem solvers: fixing erosion, drainage, slope, and awkward step height were all drawn into the plan, and it turned out exactly as described. Rafael managed the construction of the plan David H. drew, and it is just lovely. It had been an overgrown mess. Now I can use my yard without fear of falling and I can garden without feeling overwhelmed. You should let SP help you with your frustrating yard problems--they will find a solution and it will be beautiful. BTW, the walkway and retaining wall they built for me 2 years ago (photos below) is still as stable as the day it was built--it hasn't moved an inch.

I've had the pleasure of working directly with Charlie, who is not only incredibly knowledgeable and detail-oriented, but also genuinely cares about the quality of his work and his clients' satisfaction. Every experience with Cutters Landscaping has been smooth and straightforward--from planning to execution. I always do my research on pricing, and their pricing is always consistently fair and competitive, especially given the top-notch customer service they provide. I highly recommend Charlie and his outstanding team at Cutters Landscaping. After multiple years of working with them, I can confidently say you'll be in great hands! Thank you Charlie

We hired Southern Lawn Care to do a cleanup of our yard and garden beds as we prepare to move and…read moreturn our home over to the new owner. They did an EXCEPTIONAL job. The garden beds were blown out with no leaves remaining and the lawn as well. Our backyard artificial lawn was blown and all leaves collected, you could eat off the lawn it was so clean. Lastly, they mowed and trimmed for us. Now, they couldn't save the dead grass from the heat of last summer, that would be an impossible task, but they did a great job making the lawn look presentable and dare I say, good! Their prices are incredibly good, they called to let us know what time to expect them and they spent a lot of time taking care of our yard. I highly recommend them and just wish we had found them earlier in our time in Austin!

I have been using Southern Lawn Care for almost a year now and cannot recommend them enough…read more I had seen them working in my neighborhood and stopped to get contact info so I could get a quote and within a couple of days they had come out, assessed everything, and provided a very reasonable price for service. The great thing is they don't have contracts so you aren't stuck if you aren't happy with the service. They are also extremely flexible with time frames and can do everything you may need done. I started out only having them come out once a month because it was during the summer, but as spring rolled around I was able to ask that they come out more often. I have also had them to do additional things like removing some bushes from a few beds and off a fence line, spray to keep the weeds at bay, and even do a deep dive on the beds before a recent party I had.... And it's always at a good price. Any time I call to see if something can be done Tim is on top of it. He's also just a really nice guy and always eager to help, and the guys he sends out are amazing as well. They are super friendly, do a great job, and they are always open to talk if I have any special requests or things I'd like for them to be careful of while they are here. Can't thank them enough for what they do! Highly recommend.

We needed hardwood mulch spread over some large shady sections in our back yard. This is a job that…read morewe have done about every three years and our regular yard people were not available this year, so I called Austinscapes. I talked to Paul in the office, who arranged for his outside guy, Mo, to come out and do an estimate. Everyone was pleasant to deal with and the price was reasonable -- about the same as what we had been paying. They get 1/2 up front and then 1/2 on completion. In just a few days, a dump truck from Whittlesey put the 12 yards of mulch on our driveway. A couple guys from Austinscapes were there that afternoon and by mid-day the next day, they had it all done. Turned out to be a perfect estimate on the amount of mulch needed and took less time to get done than I would have thought. They cleaned up nicely. What's not to like?

This year, his Valentine's gift was Northwest Lawn Service. We originally requested just the leaves but ended up needing the whole lawn mowed because, well, we let it get a wee bit out of hand over the months (there were several weeds the height of small children in the backyard...eep!). Paul was not only super kind and easy to work with but his team was AMAZING!! In a mere 2.5/3 hours, they did the amount of work that would have taken us several backbreaking weekends. Not to mention, they even trimmed our hedges and did some edging work which really put the cherry on the cake. My boyfriend was like a kid in a candy shop, racing around to all of our windows to watch in amazement as they transformed our sad-looking yard into a modern-day Eden while I basked in the glory of this great decision (and my fortuitous situation of finding these guys). Also, the price was AWESOME. Paul cut us a very affordable deal where other services would have charged a fortune for such a beautiful and perfectly executed job. Our neighbors are green with envy and I'm not complaining. Can't wait to give these guys a call next year!
