D Garcia Landscaping completed a large fence project for us and we are extremely happy with the…read moreresults! This was a technically challenging project involving a steep hill and very mature redwood roots. Standout qualities of this company are: 1. Ease of quoting process Before coming out in person, they were able to give us a ballpark price based on dimensions, fence type, and site images. This allowed me to decide whether to move forward and I thought this was really respectful of my time. Then, Dago, the owner, came for the site visit and to discuss details. 2. No bait and switch In ironing out the details, there was some miscommunication about whether staining was included. Dago was able to meet us halfway with the price increase. This honest business style continued throughout the project and no change orders or unexpected price increases happened. 3. Detail oriented Throughout the project, we discussed details such as fence posts placement relative to tree roots, post height, etc. Dago was both available in person and by email via his assistant Maria. It was also nice to have responses confirmed in writing so that things were clear and there would be no bait and switch. 4. Personality Dago is a really nice person and I enjoy speaking with his about his geriatric dogs, etc. This also helped me not feel anxious about the project, because I felt that I could trust him. For this fence, we received multiple quotes. Two companies were in the $9-10K range, another was around $12K, and an outlier was above $20K. Dago's price was the lowest quote (with minute differences in material) and we are very glad we went with him!

Dago and his crew did an outstanding job. It was a big project that included a full hardscape demo,…read morean elevation change, installing a new wall and pavers (around several curves that required meticulous stone cutting to make the pieces fit seamlessly), and replacing underground piping. Not only did his pricing beat the competition, but he also completed the job in two weeks, and I couldn't be happier about it. I am thrilled to give this well-deserved review because if you're reading this, you will certainly be in the great hands of talented and seasoned professionals. Dago, María, and the whole team, thank you so much!

We had a fantastic experience with Eli's Landscaping, working directly with the owner Edy…read more After getting multiple quotes, Edy stood out because of his professionalism, quick communication, fair pricing, and the time he took to answer all of our questions. Our project had a few unique challenges, and with an active dog, busy household, and a yard that was taken over weeds, we wanted something that is low maintenance but also aesthetically pleasing. Edy gave some ideas and even came out for an extra site visit to make sure we were aligned before work began. His crew was incredible and completed the entire project in just 2 days, instead of the 3 that were estimated. It included irrigation, flagstones, gravel, and sod. Edy was onsite throughout the project, keeping us updated, and was always available to answer questions. Everything went smoothly from start to finish! The final result exceeded our expectations. Our backyard is both beautiful and functional, and we couldn't be happier. We highly recommend Eli's Landscaping for any landscaping project and would absolutely work with Edy again.

From a long narrow pathway full of mulch, the team of incredible people transformed it into our happy place fulll of flowers and greenery.

The team lovingly fixed our plants with stakes, our drip line. Gelder also helped us pick out new plants. We also discovered a leak on the very last day when testing the drip line and Gelders team fixed it. They are such professionals!!

Their labor and craftsmanship were good. However, the way this business operates is extremely concerning. Even though the scope was clearly defined both verbally and in writing, the owner later tried to change the terms of the estimate, claiming parts of the agreed-upon work were "mistakenly included." Throughout the process, there were multiple "gotcha" moments, surprise clarifications, shifting explanations, and attempts to downplay what was originally promised. Despite the written estimate explicitly listing a "mulch + small brick installation (combined)", the brick installation was never completed. When I followed up, they claimed it had been a "mistake" in the estimate and refused to honor that part of the agreement. Communication became defensive, taunting, and unprofessional, and rather than resolve the situation collaboratively, the owner sent a $300 refund before we had even reached an agreement, then canceled my ongoing maintenance service altogether. It's disappointing, because the work quality itself was solid. But their business ethics and communication practices are sketchy. They seem more focused on short-term profit than building long-term relationships or standing by their written commitments. They told me the brick feature would enhance the look of my garden. I guess I'll never find out. If you decide to hire them, make sure every detail is documented and signed. Otherwise, expect last-minute changes and confusion about what you actually paid for.
