Nice guy! I've seen some sick designs on other projects from him through social media. As far as my situation, Sam ghosted me for over 3 months. Gave me a decent sketch for the backyard but the front was absolutely subpar. Just for that reason I'd never recommend him to anybody I care about. I've waited over a year to write this review. Wasted $500. read more

I found Sam via Instagram and his work looked incredible!!! Of course, I had to get my husband on board to get a design going for our backyard/front yard on our new home and his responsiveness was QUICK and EASY!!! I will admit I was a bit hesitant on using someone I found on social media for any types of services, from previous experience, but Sam went above and beyond my expectations!!! Real nice and down to earth guy! I have no idea what the previous reviewers experienced, our experience working with Sam via communication,responsiveness and overall has been wonderful! Having such a huge yard we dealt with a ton of stress and had 0 clue on where to start or what we even wanted, we made some mistakes in the beginning with our yard, Sam literally came in and saved the day with his vision!!! He not only gave us like a ton of suggestions, but transformed our yard into something we would not have imagined! We received so many compliments on how clean his team was throughout the entire process from our neighbors! We are only in the first phase and we can't wait to work with Sam again on the next phase! read more

Wow!! Sam really understood our vision and what we wanted. It was hard to envision anything when we stared at our blank backyard. Off the bat Sam was very responsive and asked questions that other landscapers didn't even ask. He provided great ideas during our consultation. We told him we wanted a modern and low maintenance backyard where our kiddos can run around. It was so exciting to see his design come together. All of the workers were very courteous and professional. They worked so hard and even on very hot days! We love our new backyard! Especially, our girls love playing outside now. We can't wait to create awesome memories out there. Thanks again, Sam, for your guidance and hard work! Neighbors have already reached out to us and inquired about Sam. We highly recommend using Sam if you want a beautiful backyard! read more

I'm so grateful to have found Sam and MHLANDCO. From the day I reached out, Sam's communication has always been top tier even though he is insanely busy. If you're looking for a cheap/fast landscaper, look elsewhere. Sam does quality work, and it's very much a collaborative process, where he'll work with you to deliver an end result that you're in love with. His designs are timeless and beautiful. His work is grade A. To achieve both of these takes time and patience. Trust the process and you'll be well rewarded. I promise you it'll be worth it! I couldn't be happier with how my backyard turned out and have plans to work with Sam to do my front once I'm ready. If you're looking for the best company to transform your back or front yard, look no further. Thanks Sam! read more

I contacted Sam about our backyard. He was very prompt at getting out and taking a drone of our property. He said he would have the results back in 2 to 3 weeks. I was really looking forward to it because his work is absolutely amazing, and everybody that has gotten work done from him leaves him absolutely amazing reviews. I texted him a couple days after he came and looked at our property. I just wanted to check on with him and verify that it was 2 to 3 weeks and ask how it's coming along. He wrote back and said it should be done in a couple days max. I have politely and gently tried to ask him reminders on text messages since then and I have been completely ghosted. Sam seems to be a really great guy, and his work is really amazing. However his responsiveness to his prospective clients really is disheartening, I would fear the lack of communication if he actually did our house. read more

WE 100 PERCENT RECOMMEND M&H LANDSCAPE CONSTRUCTION. I found out of Sam through his work for my cousin's backyard in rancho. From our first call, he made everything so easy for us! If you know what you want, great! We did not. We were not sure what kind of style (cement or pavers) we wanted to go with for the backyard. So Sam asked a couple questions of our likes, dislikes and goals for our backyard. Sam went over the unbiased pros and cons of each to help us make a final decision. He then sent over a simulated backyard design using our actual backyard space! It was so cool to see it in 3D. And when we wanted to make adjustments, he was more than happy to make them and send us a new 3D design. OH AND HE DID THIS BEFORE EVEN PROCEEDING TO PAYMENT. He was helpful in letting us break the payment in 3 parts. He even fixed our neighbors broken drip pipe so it wouldn't affect our backyard anymore. ( we had been getting water leaking into our backyard for weeks prior to getting started with our backyard design and couldn't coordinate with the owners to fix it) Our backyard is pretty small, however with the pavers and sides for flowers, it looks so much bigger now. The backyard took two weeks to complete and Sam and Eric worked on it together. Eric put in a lot of hard work in really high Sac heat and was nothing but positive about it. They were both super kind, extremely hard working professionals and kept us updated on the progress everyday. We honestly could not recommend Sam and his team more. We can't wait to enjoy our new backyard. read more

Sam and his crew were AMAZING! I can not recommend them enough. Most of the other construction companies I contacted were not able to start the project for a few months. Sam and his crew were able to start within the week (granted it was a smaller project). The crew was able to fix my flagstone pathways that was installed incorrectly. Not only were they able to fix the existing pathways, they were able to expand the patio to allow room for Fire pit. Sam was a great communicator. He always let me know when the crew would be arriving. Very pleased with the quality of work I received. I would definitely recommend M&H Landscaping. I plan on hiring them for grass installation to finish the backyard and eventually will hire for front yard renovation as well. read more

In 2021 Sam and his crew installed artificial grass on a side yard for me. This area is being used as a play yard for my family members who are allergic to grass, grandkids to play on and on occasion dog area. They did a fantastic job of clearing, leveling and installing the underlayment and artificial grass, decomposed granite and a few extra smaller projects that I added to the scope. Now 3 years later (2024) my yard flooded after the big rain this winter. I contacted Sam and he sent out Erik who put down 500 lbs of infill, brushed the turf and added some nails where the older ones were compromised from the flooding. My husband and I are extremely happy with the initial product install and now the service after install. My dogs love this yard and its a great place to hang out with the grandkids when the other yard is mucky from weather. In highly recommend this company. read more

M&H was absolutely amazing!! I hired Sam to do a rendering for my backyard and he totally nailed it!!! I told him exactly what I wanted he made the CAD and after few changes I wanted it came out exactly how I imagined it!! on top of that he did my front yard for free!!! Sam is the real deal and can't wait to work with him on future projects!!! Thankyou Sam and M&H Landscape!!!!!! read more

These guys are fantastic! When it comes to landscape, there is not another that is better.

I originally contacted M&H to do my 7k sq ft backyard but they never got back to me and so I went with another company. The other company did a relatively OK job but they screwed up the concrete footers to our rebound net not once, but twice. I had no confidence they could demo and redo it properly. Sam from M&H finally got back to me and explained that he had just welcomed his first baby earlier this year and that is why he wasn't able to do the original quote and the reason for his most recent 1 star reviews. I gave him and Erik a shot. Since I had the original company to compare M&H to, I would just like to say it was like night and day how amazing and professional Sam and Erik were. With the other company, I was always anxious that they would not do it correctly or if I brought something up that they would just create excuses or not address issues. But not with Sam. They instilled confidence that they could do it right - not only the first time but make it look really good. And, they did. They were timely. They kept me updated. They addressed all my concerns. They brought up any issues right away and made sure I was aware of them. My husband noticed that the rebound net wasn't level but before he could even bring it up, Sam fixed it ASAP. A. Mazing. My only regret is that the timing didn't work out for them to do the original job. I've already recommended them to my family members who have upcoming backyard projects. And the next project we have, they will be the first ones we contact. I can not recommend them enough and I hope that we can work with them again in the future. read more

Sam is absolutely incredible at what he does. He is very easy to work with and helps you find a direction in planning and pricing. I definitely will work with him in the future for more projects as well. We were very lucky to find him so do not hesitate to shoot him a text or phone call. read more

For context - my issue started off as a complex sprinkler line repair as a result of a previously bad installation of concrete but quickly grew (by my own choice) to include updating our landscaping (rock, weed guard, etc...), moving our sprinkler control systems, as well as roughly 500sq ft of concrete. I am notoriously tough on these types of reviews because I think it takes A LOT to earn a perfect score. M&H Landscaping absolutely earned it in this case.Everything from availability, communication, empathy, consideration, and consultation a perfect score. I'm booking additional work with them to have sod and expanding our sprinkler lines based on the positivity of the experience. The quality of work speaks for itself - but the biggest thing I want to call out was the kindness. Our situation was a result of a bad situation with another contractor where concrete was installed very poorly - and severely damaged our existing sprinkler system on top of numerous construction issues with the actual concrete itself which was installed. When I contacted Sam I was desperate to get our sprinklers fixed (significant water pushing up against the foundation of my house). He made himself immediately available to come and inspect and help be a part of solving. He listened to my issues - and never pushed HIS solution on me. Ultimately it was ME that decided to have the existing concrete (2 weeks old from a DIFFERENT contractor) destroyed and replaced by Sam's crew. This kindness carried on throughout the entire process. The communication was amazing along the way - every time they did something that was "beyond" what was typically planned; they updated me. Anytime they changed their plans (i.e. having to correct issues with existing sprinkler lines) they took the time to explain to me how/why. There's no bigger compliment than being able to say you trust someone with your home. I trust Sam and M&H completely. Thank you Sam and team for the work you did! Looking forward to the sod! read more

I contacted M&H Landscape Construction to install a custom fence in my back yard to cover up an obnoxious concrete wall. Sam was awesome to work with and obviously cares about doing a great job. The fence installed was perfect for our needs and exactly what was promised. The pricing was extremely fair, the fence itself ended up perfect, but the main thing that stuck out to me was Sam's customer service and communication, which was excellent. If you are looking for some landscape or construction work in Placer County, I highly recommend giving M&H a call!! read more

No response at all! A friend referred us to this guy, and they reached out as did we multiple times. Never received a reply. Yelp should probably remove this business entirely from their page - seems lots of people are experiencing this so maybe he's out of business! Hire elsewhere!! read more

I could not recommend this company more. Sam was wonderful. He was responsive, had great communication and worked with us on creating a backyard that exceeded our expectations. Eric was the foreman and he was also wonderful. He was great at letting us know what was going on and his work was beautiful. Thank you both for the excellent job! read more

M and H landscaping did really well with Sam and his team. I asked for bids from other landscapers and they didn't even provide a quote while Sam was able to deliver his bid at the timeline he mentioned. He also was able to get us on the schedule early and finish the job in a weekend. His team was prompt, nice to talk to and always answered my questions. Appreciate all the hard work they've done and the professionalism they provide, definitely recommend them! read more

I was pulling some weeds in my front yard. Sam approached me an introduced himself and gave me his business card. He was working on my neighbors yard a couple a houses down from me. I called a couple weeks later and asked for an estimate for my front yard. He stopped by and I showed him what I wanted to do in my front yard. He said he would get back to me over the weekend with an estimate and a plan. He never got back to me over the weekend. I texted him to see when he would send his estimate. He never responds. So disrespectful!!! read more

M&H Landscape Construction - Business card Sam gave me. - Landscaping Near Me

First contacted Sam to look over our front and back yard. We had a design created and Sam was willing to work with us to bring it to life. The quality throughout has been second to none. They are very thorough in all the details in our plans. Sam added a few of his suggestions which turned out to be even better than we expected. Great value and turnaround time. We even had neighbors complementing the work before they had finished. A few neighbors even asked for Sam's contact info for their own projects. I obviously would highly recommend anyone who has a project or need some ideas to contact them. read more

Waited 9 days just to hear back from my initial inquiry. No big deal, everyone is busy; I get it. When I finally got them out for an estimate, we discussed the design and methods for my project, I was given a very rought ballpark estimate and assurance I would receive an bonafide estimate by email within a couple days. 5 days later, I followed up to see if I should expect the estimate soon. No reply. Another week later, I followed up again letting them know I was eager to see an estimate because I was ready to get on their schedule. Again, no reply. So, after being ghosted by this company, I've moved on. But I wasted about 3 weeks, based on their ballpark estimate, thinking we'd be working together; time I wont be getting back. All they had to do was let me know they were not interested in the job...too much to ask? read more

Sam and his crew did an outstanding job on the pergola they built in my backyard! He was punctual for the estimate, work days and completed exactly when he said he would. I sent him a picture of what I wanted him to build and he delivered! Would I hire him and his crew again...? I already did! He will be doing some concrete work for me on my next project. Thanks Sam! read more

I search for many months to find the right team for our project and am so glad that I finally found M&H Landscape Construction. The M&H Crew were awesome! They transformed my vision of our yard on a hill to a truly beautiful and functional backyard. The project had access issues and other challenges but the team was able to take it on and they were incredibly hard working, fast and efficient. Not to mention the cost was completely reasonable and the project was completed on time and within the quoted budget. I would not hesitate to hire them for any landscape construction projects in the future. read more

Hey all! I used Sam and his company a few months back when my messy fence got desperate in the winds. I reached out to multiple companies and this is the one who got back to me first, who gave me a competitive quote, AND who was ready to start the work within a few weeks. This is an owner operated company, and he treats it as such. Top notch communication, quick response times. I was so impressed with the awesome job he did on my one fence line, it looks so smooth and beautiful! So I just HAD to ask him back to do my other fence line. It didn't need it, but after seeing how gorgeous my yard look I wanted it! He finished the jobs quickly, he was so professional, and I am so happy with his work. He even worked steadily with my dogs barking at him. Thank you Sam! I would recommend you to anyone!!! read more

My wife and I wanted to have our front lawn replaced. It had grown many weeds over the years and wanted to have the old replaced with fresh sod. Sam was very responsive, gave us a quote on the spot and schedule the work to start within a few days. His crew was very friendly and courteous. They did an amazing job and I would not hesitate to hire again. read more

M&H did a wonderful job of renovating our backyard. We had at least ten, tall trees that we needed removed along with several bushes and underbrush. They did a great job clearing everything out quickly and safely. They also leveled our yard, fixed our irrigation, placed sod, and laid down mulch. They finished all of this a day and half earlier than originally quoted AND they saved us some money on our irrigation. Moreover, Sam, the owner, came the next day and went over the irrigation and lawn care. He even offered to come back and check on the lawn's health/reset irrigation if we struggled at all. Talk about customer service! Thank you for the wonderful care and work! read more

Sam was very engaging and efficient with our project. He maintained communications with us throughout and went above our expectations

I can't say enough positive things about Sam and his crew. They were all incredibly professional, friendly, polite, and cleaned up after themselves each day. I provided them with a hand-drawn sketch of my ideas and now I have a backyard that exceeded my expectations! My house is a new build so they started with a dirt lot and created a space perfect for backyard parties and BBQs. My neighbors even commented on how respectful, clean and professional they all were. I couldn't be happier and I highly recommend them for any job, large or small. read more

Great pics on their website and the owner Sam is very nice so I was looking forward to working with them. Unfortunately after weeks of chasing down when we'd have the bid, I had to give up. In hindsight I should have known there would be issues. Sam didn't show up for the first apt. That sort of things happens so I gave him another chance. After our first meeting he requested I schedule a meeting with he and the contractor building our pond so he could get questions answered. Unfortunately, he didn't make it to that appointment either. In fairness he let me know a couple of hours before the appointment but only after I sent multiple messages asking if he was going to make the apt. Again I gave him another chance. Sam indicated we'd have his bid the week after our first meeting, but nothing. Each time I checked in on the status, responses back were slow and usually it would take a few texts before he would get back to me. I get it, contractors are busy but after weeks of moving the bid date, the final date (April 20th) coming and going with no resetting of expectations and his failure to respond to my texts asking for an update I give up. This contractor was recommended by my pool builder whom I'm quite happy with so we weren't even planning to get another bid which is something I previously shared with Sam. Had Sam been responsive and set proper expectations the likelihood was extremely high he would have had the job to landscape our nearly half acre lot. My pool contractor has now reported that other clients he recommended use M & H are having similar issues. It's too bad. I hope M & H turns around their customer service issues. read more

After a successful landscape update to our front yard, I had Sam and Erik come over for adding wired low voltage accent and pathway lighting. As expected, Erik did a great job running electrical wire from my backyard to my front yard, completely concealed it under bark and the rock river bed, and gave the front yard a beautiful face lift. They wrapped up this work in less than 3 hours. We couldn't be happier with M&H's work. read more

Called on a Monday and scheduled an estimate for Friday. He came out, we chatted a bit about our needs and was given a rough estimate of 20-30k for our job. Before leaving, he said he would put together a design with a firm estimate. I didn't hear from him for almost a week so I sent a text the following Wed. to see when we should expect that design and estimate. No response. It's been 3 weeks now since our first meeting and no communication since that meeting. I get people get busy, but a simple "I will get back to you" would have expected. Needless to say, we went ahead with another company to handle our job. read more
