    Our yard

    I can't say enough good things about this company. The owner has been unbelievably supportive. Anytime something goes wrong--whether it's a broken sprinkler or dead patches in the lawn--he's here the very next day reseeding and repairing. His crew works hard and gets it done efficiently. I've had landscapers take one look at the amount of hedges and bushes we have and literally walk right out of the yard. This property is no easy job, but his team handles it flawlessly. Five stars and then some.

    I am so pleased with Fresh Edge and how they cleaned up our backyard and front yard!! For background, we had no maintenance for a little under 6 months in our back yard and services in the front yard that were fine(not great, but fine). My backyard ended up looking really bad and it made me so sad! I finally decided to go on yelp and saw the amazing reviews for Fresh Edge! I am SO HAPPY I inquired because they came to my house within two days and cleaned my entire back yard for a VERY REASONABLE price that also included the front yard!! We were so happy with the service, we plan on continuing with Fresh Edge and getting services twice a month!!! Anyone in the Oakley and Brentwood area, these are the best people!! See pictures below for their amazing before and after work.

    What a Difference a Day Makes! The 2023 Spring storms in the East Bay San Francisco area did a real number on our usual bit of weeds and overgrowth this year. I asked Alvaro of Fresh Edge for an estimate of full-yard (front, side, back) weed, clean, and spruce up. He was out the next day to weed-whack, spray, trim bushes, overhaul our front/entry ways, remove debris, add landscaping gravel, and did it all for such a reasonable price. Fresh Edge is amazing. We've used their services multiple times over the last few years and will continue to do so.

    The provider cut the grass in my front yard quickly, this is great. Somehow they cut my raspberry by mistake, hopefully they would be care next time.

    We've been using Alvaro and his team for a few months now and are very happy. They are reliable and work hard. I would highly recommend!

    Before. Removed pavers and weeds and bushes.

    This review is long overdue, but I'm a selfish bastard and wanted to keep him to myself. In the…read morepast 16 years i have gone through 5 gardening services. Most often they start out like gangbusters, then 3-6 monnths down the road, things begin to slip until eventually it's the minimal, "mow, blow, 'n go" service. Brian has been taking care of my yard for about 1 1/2 years now. I keep waiting for the decline in service, but I'm still getting the same meticulous care as with the first visit. One issue I'm sure others besides me have had is the language barrier with many lawn service company employees. Brian has stellar communication skills, and articulately explains each step and what his plans are. When he took over my yard, the front had deteriorated into a patch of clover weeds and crabgrass, (hence the firing of the previous gardener). Not only did Brian treat the weeds, he sent me pictures to show there were grubs in the dirt which also needed treatment. He killed the grubs, then thatched and reseeded the yard. It took a few months, but I now have a lush green yard that is all grass and no weeds. I mentioned communication earlier. Another thing I really appreciate is that Brian always sends a text and confirmation email the day before an appointment. He then sends a follow up text when he arrives to begin work that day. If one has any special needs or areas of concern, you can come point them out to him. Along with that is the completeness of any tasks you ask of him. I would ask previous gardeners to address things, they would say sure, then leave it all undone. That is not the case with Brian. He's extremely conscientious and thrives on being able to point to a job well done. Once he begins something, he doesn't like to stop until it's finished. Sometimes that has entailed him staying a little longer to complete it, and I have been surprised at how long he has worked on some days. He frequently lets me know when he has finished for the day and is leaving. Several neighbors have remarked on how well kept my yard is. I looked out one day and saw one had come over to talk to Brian. Being the selfish bastard I opened this review with, I rushed out to confront them and let the neighbor, (and Brian), know I found him first and didn't mind sharing him as long as my service didn't suffer. Although I really get along with my neighbors and had actually suggested they should switch to him, there was a little truth to my good natured ribbing. One of my previous gardeners used to spend an hour a week at my home. A neighbor on the side of me thought he was doing a good job and hired him. I didn't pay much attention, but then the neighbor on the other side also hired him. I began to notice a marked downturn in the quality of work on my property. The gardener would park in front of my house to service the three of us. What I noticed was that even though he had taken on 2 more clients, he was still only here for an hour, and had cut my time down to 20 minutes so he could fit all 3 houses within the hour. When I pointed this out, he said if I wanted it as it was before he took on the neighbors, he would have to increase my price. He was promptly fired. I definitely didn't want this happening with Brian. I'm pleased to say his taking on the neighbors hasn't affected my service in the least. My home is looking as good as it did when it was first built and the original landscaping was done. Since it hadn't looked like that for close to 10 years, I felt it was time I broke down and wrote this review. I hope a lot of people reading this will hire Platinum Yard Maintenance and help Brian grow his business...but...STAY AWAT FROM FRIDAYS....THAT'S MY DAY!

    Out of all the companies we researched for yard maintenance/cleanup, Brian's company provided the…read morebest value so we decided to give him a chance, and he certainly did not disappoint! He came out to our house and gave us a consultation on what needed to be done and what he provided. He suggested we first do an initial cleanup just to reset our yard, and then come back on a bi-weekly basis to maintain it. On the day of the initial cleanup, Brian completely revitalized our yard. From mowing the lawn, to raking the leaves, to controlling the weed growth, he went above and beyond with the cleanup. We highly recommend Brian's company to anyone who wants quality yard maintenance/cleanup. The professionalism, attention to detail, and communication were top notch.

I had interviewed four other Landscapers, unfortunately they were either extremely expensive, or they would try pulling a fast one on me. I had seen Greg's work at a home that he had done, it was a front yard landscape and it looked fantastic. I called Greg, he arrived right on time, he called when he was on his way, so I could be expecting him. He arrived, and immediately I felt at ease, he was very nice, informative, and listened to what I wanted. He made suggestions, which I went with and I'm glad we did. Greg and Daniel his brother are from Antioch, went to school here, and both are very knowledgeable and work very hard, even on weekends to get the job done right. I still remember when we had a big wind storm, it blew part of my fence down over a weekend. I called Greg and asked if he could come out and put the slats back in and he said, I will be right over. He stopped at Home Depot, picked up wood and everything he needed, he showed up, rebuilt that part, and would not accept any money for the supples or labor. Greg and his crew were very careful with our pool, he covered it to make sure no dirt would get in it, and the end result was amazing. I would highly recommend Greg for your landscaping project, he is honest, pricing is excellent and himself and his brother are really good guy's. Thanks Greg and Daniel for a job well done.
