Eribierto and his thoughtful green thumb have brought my home and the ecology more joy over the years than I can describe. I took a garden design class and he made every plan better than expected. I would recommend GENERAL NATIVE GREEN to anyone looking for a gardener with a vast knowledge ability, a hard working and always kind crew. I just wish I could give more than five stars. read more

Eriberto showed up and gave me a quote and we agreed on the price! Then the day of work he called me saying he can't do all the job! Too much work, he said. The he left the site with a pile of dirt left on the drive way! Blocking my drive way! Horrible! read more

I love working with the team at General Native Green! They are so easy to work with, reliable and do great work! I've used them for landscaping as well as maintenance and continue to have a great experience. I highly recommend!! read more

Best landscape company I have dealt with!! Quick to respond, does great work and fair pricing!!

Absolutely awesome! I scanned Yelp for response times on my project. General Native Green has the fastest reply times. No Joke, Eriberto replied to me within 10 minutes and came the same day for a quote. He gave me a fair price for what I wanted, then told me he would be back in 4 days to start the job. Later he called and changed to start the very next day. Our project included welding and relocating sprinkler heads and everything was done in less than a day and a half. I am so very pleased with the work and highly recommend General Native Green. read more

I had an existing walk of pavers that had been upended by tree roots and a flowerbed of unruly plants. Eriberto and his crew came in, removed the tree stump, roots and plants then re-leveled the walkway space and laid down 100+ pavers. They cleared the flowerbed, installed a new drip hose system there and planted a handful of agave plants I had. They repaired drip hoses elsewhere in my yard. They also hauled away all the mess and left things spotless. All within one day. I couldn't have asked for a better job. They're definitely at the top of the list if i need any of the services they provide. read more

A wonderful crew! I was looking specifically for a contractor that is familiar with the LADWP Turf Replacement Program. It was crucial that all requirements were met for final approval. I definitely made the right choice. Eriberto and Dulce provided responsive and thoughtful service. Dulce was always available to answer questions 7days a week and Eriberto was on the site everyday and not just as a foreman but also as a designer, a consultant, a botanist and a plantsman. The team was able to accommodate every change I requested and each new addition to the project. The cost was very competitive as well. Other quotes I received was $20K-$30K above my budget. Eriberto was extremely workable and understood the "look" and "feel" I was going for. I only wished that I had a higher budget to get more mature plants but I'm sure I'll have that look within a year. read more

They did my landscaping at my house, did a great job. Real professional landscaping service. I'm very happy with the results

This is my first review, I read his review on Yelp and called. I have to say that I have a lot of respect for family owned business and I did inform them before posting. Elizabeth, the daughter was very responsive and Eddie/Eriberto was on time to check the issue. Being a woman I have felt that I'm always been charged more. This company went far beyond that. What bothered me after he left was how he kept repeating, "I'm professional and certified" but quoted me $500 for parts which on any site was less then $150, also lied to me by saying that I need an emergency shut off valve, an add on, beside what he had come to fix, the valve is right there and I don't need one. I'm sure he is good at what he does, but if you are a woman and asking him for a quote, be ready for double the amount. read more

Eriberto and Eleana were wonderful! Eleana was always on top of communication and made the whole process very simple. Eriberto was accommodating and his team was efficient and fast! Eriberto went to the property and took photos before quoting us so we appreciate his efforts in his research to get us an accurate estimate. Our company hired GNG for two big projects where we needed brush clearance on vacant lots that were 2 and 9 acres big. They were able to get the job done in 2-4 days on short notice as well. They are an honest company since we were not there to supervise on the days they did the work but Eriberto sent lots of photos throughout the cleanup. When we did inspect the work it was up to our standards. We will continue to use them for our LA projects. read more

This company is bar none a great company to have do your landscaping. They were efficient, wonderful customer service, friendly team and got the job done in a timely manner! Dealt with Elizabeth on paperwork and daily touch bases (via email and text) and Eriberto was excellent!! Can't express enough how much we enjoyed this partnership. Will hire again to do the side of the house. Thanks General Native Green Team! read more

We needed to remove an area of dead lawn and wanted to replace it with a specific design of concrete and Mexican beach rocks. We also had TONS of wooden fence atop a 100 year old stucco wall that needed replacement. We have an odd slope to our yard, plus a pool, which makes things more challenging. Eriberto and his team were amazing with everything they did. They exceeded our expectations! We had tons of questions and concerns along the way, but we were always met with answers and confidence. The job was completed on time and within budget, as promised. The workers cleaned up the job site daily. Everyone was very polite and responsive. Very happy! Looks amazing!! read more

Eriberto was a pleasure to work with. His team communicated well, was on-time, and even though we were delayed a few days because of weather, we were kept informed on the progress. We completely re-did both from and back yards and even had the fencing changed out. I searched around on yelp for landscapers and we ended up going with General Native Green because of their fair pricing. One thing to clear up with them is the size of the bushes and plants that they will put in. They ended up being smaller than what I was thinking in my head. Maybe he did mention it to me, but I forgot since we did have a couple months gap between him giving me a quote and starting work. In any case, communication is key! read more

Very pleased with Eriberto and his crew - I wanted to refresh & upgrade my front and backyard: remove old shrubbery, install new drought-tolerant plants and mulch, drip system, replace grass with gravel, etc. Highly recommend! read more

Communication was good however the pricing they quote for the most basic of yard work is insane. I have no clue where people come up with these prices. $800 to clean up leaves? I have a concrete small property. Taking advantage of people is not right. read more

Eriberto and his team worked for three days on a long overdue landscaping project in our front and back yard. They laid down sod, re-piped for sprinklers, trimmed and pruned several trees, and planted many bushes and plants. They are professional, neat, tidy, hard-working, and a joy to work with. The end result was beautiful. Highly recommend General Native Green. read more

I found General Native Green on Yelp. Eriberto came out to my office for a consultation. He was able to point out work that had been done incorrectly by previous landscapers and provided a very fair estimate for the work I was requesting. He came out on a Saturday to do the job for us and we were very pleased with the quality of his work! Also, it was a pleasure working with Elizabeth to coordinate everything. read more

The pictures speak for themselves, Eriberto and his team did a remarkable work, removed so much stumps and old crap from the previous owner and helped me to design and build a beautiful yard, with perfect grass, surrounded buy ficus hedge trees and gravel stones bedded in a perfect lanes. read more

Eriberto and his team are just the best. Good communication, excellent knowledge, and they really really care... and it shows. The garden and yard look fantastic and I'm excited to see it all mature in their hands. read more

Great experience with Eriberto and his team. They were very responsive and easy to coordinate with. We needed help repairing and extending our irrigation system on a hillside lot, and I had no idea where to start. Eriberto came and evaluated everything, explained the process to me, and then followed up with a fair quote. I was never condescended to, and learned a lot. They completed the work yesterday and I am SO happy with the results. Our system is working great, and I just generally feel more educated about our garden. Very grateful! read more

Eriberto and his team are great! He came quick, provided a reasonable quote for cleanup and regular bi-monthly maintenance. His team did a terrific job on the initial clean up and I'm sure they will continue to do the same for the regular upkeep. Highly recommend! read more

There are people who wish to snatch your money, not Eri and his crew!!! Eri is super knowledgeable and aware of city codes these guys have your back! They will be honest with you when visiting for a quote. If you don't get Eri you will be sent a crew member as capable as he. They will keep it real and will tell you the pros and cons of you project and will quote you fairly, this is what we experienced when we inquired. Thank you Eddie for being so helpful! read more

We had a bunch of ugly cactus taking over our planter, now we have 3 beautiful rose bushes and river rock. The photos really don't give it justice. It's really pretty... Once the rose bushes grow and bloom more, it will be stunning. Thank you General Native Green! Your team was pleasant and you repaired our broken bricks, too! I love it! Our neighbor already complimented us on it and that made my day! read more

Eriberto and his crew were excellent. He went above and beyond the call of duty, completing everything in a timely manner. From our initial call, setting up an appointment, showing up on time, making great recommendations, providing the estimate and working out the details for that, scheduling the work, showing up in a workmanlike manner, on time and ready to get the work done. The finish details were noticeable and he made much needed recommendations to ensure the work was completed properly. Excellent company, I look forward to working with them again. Highly recommend their work. read more

Heard back from them right away and they came out same day and gave me a quote to fix my sprinkler system. I had several valves that Nessie's replacement and low water pressure. Eriberto came the next day and worked most of the day to replace valves, found several leaks which were creating the water pressure issue and tested the whole system to make sure it worked. Price was very fair and reasonable. Would highly recommend. read more

I installed a pool in my backyard and wanted the area landscaped to really finish it off and make it look great. I received a few quotes, but Eriberto's was the best. I had a good feeling after meeting with him that he really cared about the work, and wasn't interested in selling me more than I needed. He installed landscaping, lighting and irrigation in my backyard, giving a lot of thought to plant selection that worked in my yard, smart metering, and the end product. When he ran into some unexpected rocks while digging, he didn't charge me extra for the removal, but found a way to incorporate them into the design. I get so many compliments on my yard. He recently came back and freshened up my front yard with new irrigation lines and mulch. He even threw in a few extra plants to fill in the gaps, without me even having to ask. It really changed the look of the yard, and makes me really happy every time I look at it. On top of all of that, he works very quickly, an added plus after I've had contractors take their time and never finish. I can't recommend Eriberto, his family and his team enough. He has a great eye for landscape architecture and a real sense for what will look great, but also a deep knowledge of what goes into the construction side also. The pricing is very fair, and when you consider how amazing the end product looks, it's a steal. read more

Heriberto, his wife and team were wonderful! He was very responsive from the get go, sent us pictures of native/drought tolerant plants and even brought a variety of them live and in person for us to take a closer look. With his careful eye for landscaping he placed our plants in the right spot keeping in mind that they will be growing and where they would look best. Thank you General Green we are looking forward to continue working with you. read more

I asked GNG to clear my hillside backyard, add drought-tolerant plants, and create a path with decomposed granite and paver steps all the way down the hill. They suggested adding a flat area at the bottom of the hill, so I could add an outdoor table. They told me the project would cost $7800, including 45-50 plants. On Day 2 of their work, they said it would cost an additional $2,500; otherwise, they could not complete a path all the way down to the flat area. They said that they needed more money for wood for the path because the backyard is a hillside. I responded: they should have known that when they gave me the original price; it's not a surprise that the backyard is a hillside. I told them I couldn't go over the budget, so please don't include the flat area (i.e. just make the path go down 75% of the hill). I also asked: because they are not going to include a flat area, could they lower the total price? They said no, but they would add 10 more plants. After a week, when they said they were almost finished, I looked and the path only went down 25% of the hill. When I explained this was not the agreed-upon project, they nevertheless wanted the full $7800, got angry, and were physically agitated. The next day, they agreed to make the path go down 50% of the hill. After another week, the path did not include any paver steps and the backyard only had 45 plants. By that time, I didn't want to deal with them anymore. If I could do it over again, I would not have hired them. read more

General Native Green has been servicing my home in Silver Lake for several years now (landscaping, irrigation, trimming, etc.) - and I cannot recommend them more highly. Eriberto and his crew take their work very seriously - and they always have ideas on how to improve the property even further. Additionally, they usually take extra steps to upgrade the greenery around the home - beyond what was even contracted. They are reasonably priced, efficient - and they really care about the quality of their work. Two big thumbs up. read more

This guy could be very good, based on other reviews. I never got the chance to find out. He looked at my yard and we agreed to regular service. Then he forgot about the whole thing. When I reached out to him he told me he was too busy. If I'd have known that, I would have started looking for someone else. As it was, I lost a couple of weeks. Unprofessional. read more

I wanted a drought resist design for a small house surrounded by a small lot entirely filled with weeds. General Native Green got rid of the weeds, installed an automatic sprinkler system, installed a nice rock border in the back yard and put in plants. They were completely reliable and showed up on time. They provided a beautiful and simple design for the yard. read more

Met Eddie today to check out our irrigation system which needs and upgrade. He was very knowledgeable and quoted us a fair price for the work. Looking forward to working with GNG! read more

Eriberto and his crew work very hard. We started with having them clear out backyard to prep for grass and ended up having them till & seed grass, upgrade sprinklers, crate border with existing railroad ties, add ficus to fence line, add mulch & natives plants, upgrade sprinkler control unit and clear & trim front yard. They were here about 5 days in total--very professional. read more

General Native Green is a great company. Eriberto Casas (Eddie) is both prompt, reliable and knowledgeable. He installed a new smart sprinkler controller and a pressure regulator. We have had several people work on our sprinklers but no one until now was able to identify and fix the problems. He is also local to Sun Valley & Sunland/Tujunga/Shadow Hills. read more

I decided to kill my lawn a few years ago and go with native plants and fruit trees for the obvious reasons. I had a gardener that I had inherited with my house, and he was a very nice mow and blow guy. I didn't want to let him go because, again, he was so nice, so I bought a bunch of plants and set out a plan of where everything should go. He was great with mowing and blowing, but he just didn't know how to care for anything outside that small box. I even got the most amazing book on how to care for every type of native plant imaginable, but he didn't have any interest (it was in both English and Spanish, so I was hopeful that he would embrace it). Sadly, he said he didn't need it, but I ended up losing a lot of plants. I had seen a card for General Native Green up at Theodore Payne (for anyone interested in looking into natives, I highly recommend going there), so thought I would give them a try. I wish I had used them from the beginning of my project! All of my plants are so happy and thriving -- natives, fruit trees, and the back yard where I kept everything "normal" with lawn and tons of camellia bushes and the like. When I bring in new plants, Eribierto and I have thoughtful conversations about where they will be happiest -- which is a huge relief for someone with an only light green thumb. I never have to worry about my garden anymore! I can just appreciate it every day. Oh, and they installed drip irrigation for me, which has been amazing. I could not recommend General Native Green more! read more

I hired these guys to do my yard. It's a pretty big job, Eddie came over to do an estimate. He asked for $1000 and we agreed on $800. The next day he and his guys showed up and worked from 9am-5pm non stop making the place look great. Even did great cleaning up after too. read more

I've been wanting to write this review for a very very long time. I'm doing it today because we have finally just finished FIXING the work that Eriberto did on our yard. We were looking for not only someone to do maintenance on our yard but also someone to change our regular in ground sprinkler system to a drip system. We has recently taken out our yard and put in California natives. We found Eriberto and had him come and start maintenance. After each visit we would walk around the yard and see many things he would miss. Like weeds and baby agave plants popping up everywhere. Things we had asked him to take care of. Not difficult things to deal with but when we would bring this up and point it out he would say we complain too much! We went ahead and had him replace our sprinkler system with the drip system. Over and over he would show his "certificate" from the city and talk about how he was very good at this. Well now it has been almost 2 years since he did this work and over this time we have had to spend several hundred dollars more to FIX HIS SHODDY WORK! He put the bare minimum of tubing along our medium strip and then he covered it up with "mulch", free mulch from the city that was FULL of trash, bits of plastic, metal and various bolts, screws and the like. Not to mention the weeds!! When we pointed this out he laughed and again said we complain. No kidding!! He quit not long after installing the drip, could it be that he got his big ticket item and that's all he wanted? Again, he said we complain too much. Is it too much to ask to have you pick weeds, not get trash mulch and to have a drip system put in that works?? I don't thing so, especially with the amount of $$$ he charged us! Beware. read more

The owner is very nice. He does what he says he's going to do. He also goes a little bit above and beyond. His team is hard-working and professional. We are really happy with the product and would use them again. read more

Easy to work with and did a great job! They landscaped our whole yard and redid all the irrigation in our yard. They were courteous and professional and we continue to work with them to upkeep our yard. read more
