We have had an excellent experience working with this company. This is the third landscaping…read morecompany we have worked with over our 4 years living here in San Mateo and we could not be happier. There are 3 big projects for which we contracted with Zarco Landscaping, because they continually performed above and beyond on the work. The first project was for a room that would flood when it rains. The team at Zarco quickly diagnosed the problem as poor gutter placement and cracks in concrete on the floor above, and they worked rapidly to connect a new sewer system and rebuild our concrete walkway. There has been no more flooding. The second project was to improve the terrain and usability of our backyard, which is on a hill that was very difficult to navigate. The Zarco team completely transformed the area, building stone steps and leveling the land with premium soil, mulch, and stone. Please see the attached photos (we wish we had before pictures, but it was all dirt and invasive plants before on a steep incline)! Lastly, our third project had to be done rapidly after the recent storms in the bay area. We needed three very large and dead trees removed that were at risk of falling on our house or the street. The Zarco team came the next day to remove all of the trees. Overall, the Zarco team has always delivered amazing service and treated us with respect. The prices are also very reasonable and competitive with quotes we received from other businesses. If you live in San Mateo or the Bay Area, we strongly recommend calling Zarco Landscaping for all of your outdoor needs!

He had a vision for grass, mulch, a pebble walkway to our office shed, and some plants around the perimeter. Exactly what we wanted for our budget and needs. He delivered professional results while staying within our budget--truly budget-friendly without cutting corners. Reliable, detail-oriented, and a pleasure to work with. There were a couple of miscommunications along the way, and we were impressed with how quickly and professionally he responded and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. He even spotted some work done by other contractors that needed repairing and did the work. We plan to use Zarco Gardens for our future front yard project. Highly recommend!

They are trimmed and look super happy (new growth with dozens leaves are burst to open). When I dropped them off; part of the leaves are dried since I wasn't able to deliver them right away after they were taken out. This is the reason that this place exist-because the volunteers passionate and know how to take care of the plants. I witness how they nurse the plants that I gave away. This must be love. For most people; these plants are unwanted and would end up in compost. They group them together with the same species in the table for sale. They price the smaller one $4.50 and 2 of the mediums $10/ each. Come and support this business. Everyone would benefit; whether you are giving away plants or buying.

He took the time to understand what we wanted, communicated clearly throughout the project, and paid close attention to every detail. The quality of the workmanship exceeded our expectations. Our yard has been completely transformed, and it's clear that Mauricio takes great pride in his work. He showed up when he said he would, kept the work area clean, and made sure everything was done right. It's not easy to find someone who combines excellent craftsmanship with outstanding customer service, but Mauricio does exactly that. If you're looking for a landscaper who is reliable, hardworking, well-priced, and truly cares about the final result, I highly recommend him. We will definitely be using him again for future projects. Thank you, Mauricio, for doing such an amazing job!

Recently, we hired them for a major project: removing 3 trees, pruning 17+ trees, trimming a hedge, and some other tasks. Diana was very helpful and professional - she explained the work clearly and offered us multiple options at a reasonable price. I really appreciate how she took the time to help us understand the trees' conditions and the needed work. Once we decided on a plan, she coordinated quickly with her crew, led by Manfredy. I expected this to take several days, but the entire team finished the job in one day. Our trees look revived, and we are very happy with their work. I highly recommend them!
