Our front yard and backyard (yes, we have both living in SF!) were soooo overgrown and in need of…read morelove. Our place is high maintenance, trees and bushes in the front, more trees and bushes in the back and shit ton of weeds. We solicited a half dozen quotes from a range of businesses in the 'landscaping' , 'tree trimming', etc. businesses. First pattern noticed is none of the businesses were super responsive. Maybe it was the season, maybe they were so busy, but I found it annoying to call/write two, sometimes thee times to get quotes. Mr. Nguyen is old school. They don't have a fancy website to take quotes. You have to call him. He comes over, and has to write up a quote. Then he goes more old school, and will actually deliver the quote, hand written in an envelope to your mailbox. His quote was very competitive for all the things we were asking them to do...quote to do the work was not the cheapest (which is always scary), and DEF not the most expensive (which was easily a $1k difference). He, and his mighty little crew are amazing. My hubs told me the wife brings a portable grill on the job site and makes hot meals for the crew at lunch. It's so old school and so efficient and we LOVED their work. They ended doing tree trimming for our neighbors to as an add on gig to ours... Shine on you crazy diamond, Mr. Nguyen! Great work!

We had an excellent experience working with Omar and his team on our backyard project. They removed…read morean old cracked concrete pad, installed artificial turf, added pavers, and planted star jasmine along a trellis, and the entire process was smooth from start to finish. They were professional, punctual, and incredibly respectful of our home. Every day they showed up on time, kept the work area clean, and made sure everything was tidy before leaving. Their attention to detail really showed in the final result - the turf looks fantastic, the pavers are perfectly set, and the trellis with the star jasmine completely transformed the space. See before and after pictures attached. Their pricing was fair and transparent, and Omar himself was very easy to communicate with throughout the project. Any questions we had were answered quickly, and he made helpful suggestions that improved the overall structure and design. We're very happy with the outcome and would absolutely work with them again. I highly recommend this team to anyone in the San Francisco Bay Area looking for reliable, high-quality landscaping work.

Just like my first experience with Santos Hauling in 2025, they responded quickly to my YELP message. We agreed on a day/time for an estimate and agreed that if I found the price to be reasonable, they could take care of the job immediately. Their team provided fast and detail oriented service. It was a crew of nine. They helped remove a bunch of overgrown ivy and weeds throughout my property and hauled away a bunch of junk (some of which had been sitting around for over 20 years). There's still much to do around my house due to years of deferred maintenance, but the Santos Hauling team provided a jumpstart to refreshing my house. They are extremely responsive, provided quality work, are respectful of property, and their service comes at a very reasonable price.

He will not leave your property without the knowledge that you are completely satisfied with the work they have performed... actually, there have been times where they will do work beyond what I expected. I just had them back here for another major yard clean-up job at this huge yard in Mission Dolores on March 2, 2026. I am a tenant who has lived at this property for a substantial number of years. I have nothing to do with 'management' of this property, but I have now finally convinced the property owner to allow me to retain Max and his crew for regular maintenance every 2-3 months.

I interviewed four different landscaping companies before choosing him, and Chris stood out as the most knowledgeable, especially about the Outer Sunset area in San Francisco and what grows best in this climate. He really took the time to listen. We met several times before the work began to design the project, and I never felt rushed. He was flexible, collaborative, and easy to work with throughout the whole process. He stayed open to changes and new ideas as they came up, and he coordinated really well with my contractor. I also found his prices to be very reasonable for single-family homeowners. I don't have much gardening experience, and Chris was able to take the lead in creating a beautiful, low-maintenance backyard that fits my family's lifestyle and the overall design of our home. The backyard he created is a place we'll cherish for years. I'm very grateful to him.

I first met Humberto when I opened a Yelp project ticket in January. He was not only quick to respond, (he came over within an hour, on a Sunday), he also was transparent in his pricing and had great suggestions. I could tell he knew a lot about gardening. Humberto and Alejandro came in January for the first visit, and as was right for the season, they pruned all of the bushes, weeded the mulch and stone areas, and mowed the lawn. I liked them so much that first visit we made a plan for the next visit in the spring, which happened today! Humberto brought just the stone I wanted (he knew it by name when he saw it the first time), to refresh the old stone and also brought the mulch that we had talked about- both in the perfect quantity. Today they also mowed and fertilized the grass (the right time of year for that now), cleaned up all of my pots, put new plants in huge heavy ceramic pots, replanted some outlier succulents from the stone area, and did a thoughtful cleanup all around. He advised me about "sunny plants" and "shady plants" too, which was very useful. The yard is beaming with Springtime! Humberto is busy for a good reason, so plan for that, but a shiny well thought out garden is a joy.

This is to answer back Stephany S, the business employer…read more It's unfortunate that we only received a response from your team after we publicly raised our concerns through a Yelp review. For months, we called and followed up multiple times regarding the issues with the irrigation and the condition of the work, and we were repeatedly ignored. You were aware of who we were despite the Yelp review being under a different name because we were the ones consistently reaching out with no acknowledgment. Regarding the irrigation issue: the damage wouldn't have occurred if your crew had properly capped the existing irrigation before installing the pavers. The fact that you had to redo a section later at no charge doesn't negate that the issue was caused by your team's oversight in the first place. Had you taken responsibility and communicated with us when we initially reached out, we wouldn't have had to resort to a public complaint. It's disappointing that it took a Yelp review to get any kind of acknowledgment.
