We are very happy with the landscaping job Susano and his crew did for us. They solved our drainage problem and redesigned both the front and backyard with new grass, plants, a sprinkler system and accent lights. It started out as a DIY project but I realized it was too much and turned to Susano for help. Our yard is adobe clay and slopes towards the backyard where water accumulated after a heavy rain. The original plan was to dig a trench (swale) and fill it with gravel for the rain water and downspouts to drain into. Susano discovered after digging down a few feet the ground water continued to fill the trench. He pivoted to a french drain system with pop-up valves that allowed the excess water to seep out to the back of the property. It worked exceptionally well during the Kona low and LaLa storms leaving no excess water to accumulate in the yard. We highly recommend Susano and the Island Green Landscaping crew. The only issue we had was Susano not consistently notifying us when they couldn't make an appointment. The work got done but it was frustrating at times when they didn't show up when we expected them...a minor inconvenience for the quality of work they did. read more

We had such a great experience working with Island Green Landscaping! Susano and his team handled everything for us - the concrete, sprinkler system, vinyl fence and gate, full landscaping and outdoor lighting. We really appreciated being able to have everything coordinated through one team, which made the entire process so much easier. From the beginning, we felt confident in Susano because of his experience and knowledge. We told him we wanted a tropical floral theme, and he did such a beautiful job bringing our vision to life. He picked flowers and plants that were colorful, easy to maintain, and fragrant. The landscaping has completely transformed and elevated both our front and backyard, and we love how everything turned out! We've also decided to continue working with Island Green for ongoing maintenance once our 60-day maintenance period is over, which really says a lot about how happy we've been with both the work and the overall experience. Susano and his entire team were hardworking, professional, and genuinely take pride in what they do. We're very happy we chose Island Green and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to transform their outdoor space! read more

All their employees were very courteous, did the work professionally, quick and efficient. They totally fixed my front and back yard within 6-7 days. They are prompt and cleaned up very well. They made sure the water meter was not disturbed and also did not place the nails for the synthetic grass within the water meter lines. I would recommend Island Green to friends. Worth the money; no more worries and peace of mind. read more

Had a French drain installed, OMG! job was done quickly and professionally! Crew did their work without playing around, stopping only for lunch break. They were respectful and cleaned up the area at the end of the day! Owner Susano, followed thru with everything promised for the project. They were not the lowest bidders on the project, but the most knowledgeable. I recommend them whole heartedly. if there were 10 stars, I would rate them a 10! Thank you, guys... read more

A couple of months ago, I gave a 5-star rating for Island Green Landscaping and Maintenance. We hired them to cut down some trees and clean up our badly neglected yard. They did an excellent job. We moved here 22 years ago and never updated our yard--imagine that. After the tree trimming was completed, I mentioned to owner, Susano Saoit, how stray cats chose our yard to use as their personal pooping station. He informed us of a particular kind of synthetic grass that cats cannot claw or dig through which discourages the cats from pooping. Since my husband can no longer do yard work due to an illness, synthetic grass was the ideal solution. Susano noticed our outdoor patio "floor" consisted of bricks which were unsafe to walk on due to natural shifting of the ground. Rather than covering the entire patio with synthetic grass, we opted to have the bricks removed. After prepping the bare ground, Susano's crew poured cement. That was a wonderful decision to make. My husband had an old, unused pigeon cage that was demolished and hauled away by the crew. After laying down the grass, the crew eventually carried a tool shed to where the pigeon cage once stood, allowing more space on our patio floor. That was a monumental task in itself. My mailbox and post were in need of a replacement as well. Susano's crew previously cleared up the front section where they initially removed trees and shrubbery. On their last day, I happened to purchase a mailbox and post. The new "kit" was opened and the post was securely set with concrete (one of the guys ran out to purchase some to mix). Hallelujah!!! I encourage you to give Susano a call and he will be only too happy to see what he can do to help make your yard beautiful again. May I reiterate that every day the crew came, they cleaned up and took away all the trash that they made (and then some). Sorry for the lengthy review, but Island Green Landscaping and Maintenance did a lot for us retirees. Thank you Susano and your crew (Khing Balais, Eddie Corpuz, Manny Galiza, Erick Layugan, Arvi Maranion, Jaisen Saocit, and Zeus Ubay) for your hard work and being very respectful. read more

We couldn't be happier with the work Susano and his team did on our front and back yard. From start to finish, they were professional, creative, and attentive to every detail. The night lighting highlights the landscaping beautifully, giving the space a warm, inviting look--especially the subtle uplighting around the plants and palms. The combination of textures with natural stone, and contrasting rock colors really gives the yard a polished and modern look. We received several compliments and highly recommend Island Green to anyone looking for quality landscaping that looks great both day and night! Thank you Susano! read more

Tired of no shows, Susano said for the 3rd time that he will come and look my irrigation problem. Of course, Susano never showed up. Called and left a message but typically no answer. Got lucky if he answers. He set up my yard with irrigation 10 years ago then after that he never follow up. I never learn my lesson not to call him back. Finally decided to find better yard people that I can definitely depend on. NO MORE ISLAND GREEN!!! read more

Susano and his team were great! I did not know much and received several quotes from other companies. They were way overpriced. Susano is down to earth and easy to work with. I had a hard time picking out the plants and he provided suggestions but ultimately the choice was ours. They put in irrigation in three parts of our yard, front, side, and backyard and he is repairing some other persons mistake when they cut corners on our side of the house. We had a party coming up and we wanted to sod in the front completed so we could have grass and not dirt, they got the job done! highly impressed. His prices are reasonable and the quality is top notch! I am also going to switch our monthly maintenance to his team. read more

This team of hard-working people is led by Susano, a visionary professional who knows what he is doing. Rain or shine, they transformed my yard into something more than I expected, and fast. They regraded my yard, installed new sprinkler system and planted new grass. He even fixed my water connection. The pictures don't do justice to the professional and excellent results, as they work on my yard like clockwork - each one of them knows what to do, and each role was clearly defined. You can tell that they have been doing this for so long, for many years. I am one of the happy and satisfied clients. They do more than what is expected - they also clean up some parts of my property that was left messy by my other contractor. Very friendly people armed with expertise. I highly recommend Island Green. I don't usually leave feedbacks and reviews, but these guys deserve it. read more

Island Green and Susano's crew are the nicest and hardest workers here in Oahu! Our yard not only looks stunning, it looks bigger! We started out only doing our back area. After Susano customized the design with not only the new turf they added more plants in the newly created flower beds and used our rocks for added flair. It was such a difference we couldn't stop and asked them to do the front. We feel like we are now living in a resort. We 100% suggest you use them! You won't regret it at all. We have the best looking yard in the neighborhood! read more

Susano, Jason, and their team did a wonderful job replacing my back yard with new grass (including removing the old grass and adding soil). They completed the job in less than 2 days!!!! No complaints. read more

Susano the owner very responsive on proposal and getting work scheduled & Dexter the foreman was awesome working on my property! Did a fantastic job! Would highly recommend Island Green Landscaping & Maintenance LLC read more

They get a one star simply because they've answered their phone on some occasions when trying to reach out to them. We were looking for someone capable of doing work on our sprinkler system and reached out to them. They would give us a date that they would come out and then end up being a no show three times. On the last conversation we spoke to the boss because the employee that was supposed to show didn't show and he said that they forgot to let us know that he called in sick. Which is not a bad thing but being the third time no show with no communication is just not good. We decided to go with another vendor eventually because they were just prolonging the process of getting our system fixed with no guarantee or nothing to make up for time wasted waiting on them. read more

Our experience is both good and bad. Good News Island Green gave us the best price for both landscaping and irrigation. They were quick with the work, installed nice plants, foliage, and greenery which has all grown very well. The lawn was planted with pods (instead of sod) since it was cheaper, and grew with varied results. Mixed-seed pods grew different grass types (which we're managing with weed/feed) but overall it took hold and spread evenly and green. They provided six months of maintenance (lawn service, feed/weed, and plant maintenance). The Rainbird irrigation system was solid and provided good lawn coverage and waters most of the plants. There is one area around the plants that is lacking but 90% coverage is still good. Bad News There is unfinished irrigation work on our property and they have horrendous follow-up. They installed irrigation PVC piping in the small lawn area between the sidewalk and road curb as part of our overall landscaping but failed to install any sprinkler heads. When we connect a water hose to the fixture nothing happens, just pipes filled with water under the grass. We contacted Susano many times to correct the problem and he'll promise to show up or have his people come by and complete the work but no one ever does. For over 6 months they've lied and failed to complete the tiniest of work. They've ignored the problem for so long it has left us no choice but to report them to the BBB for poor service, to alert other customers on Yelp, and to pursue legal actions to reclaim lost monies. read more

Wish I could give them a better rating, but I tried to give them my business, but they never followed through with an estimate. The owner came out to give me an estimate and said he would send me a proposal, but he never did. I called him and he said he sent the proposal, but I never got it. He said he would send it again, and again, I never received anything. I was thinking of giving only one star, but the owner was very nice and he did come out to look at my place, but he never followed up with me. I was always chasing after him to give me my proposal, but after several months, I just gave up. Maybe he just didn't want my business. read more
