Was told will be available in two weeks to start the job. When called reference to estimate, said that they landed another job and won't be available till July. Was disappointed considering the references they have. Waited and wasted the whole week. This comment was added in response to David's comment below. Correction - you came on Tuesday around 5:30 pm and not Wednesday. Also I reached out to you on last Friday about the estimate as I didn't hear from you and you never said we serve first come first serve. So this company lies very well to make them look better. Be careful in hiring them for your project.

My wife and I are very pleased we selected David and Al to redo our backyard. 5 or 6 years ago…read moreduring the worst of the drought, I stopped watering the lawn that was there - and as the years went on - the yard degraded into a weedy, dusty, ugly mess. I met with 4 or 5 other landscapers to discuss our yard, and David and Al were the only ones who showed up ready to measure and able to talk specifics about what we could do. They were able to do a quick sketch right then - that really helped align our ideas with their suggestions. The work took just a few short weeks - killing all the weeds, leveling everything out - laying down mulch and drip landscaping for the selected easy maintenance low water plants, and just today the grass was installed. I couldn't be happier with the way everything turned out, and I would strongly recommend David and Al for any landscaping work.

He contacted me about moving up our appointment and he and his crew showed up on time, took a look at the issue and quoted me a fair price on the spot for the challenging repair and two additional sprinkler head replacements.

I've will use them again and suggest you do as well.

Jerry snd John carried out landscaping and sprinkler upgrade on our backyard and side recently…read more They came up with a design best suited for our layout involving narrow strips of fraying lawn, trees, existing plants and quite a number of potted plants as well as debris of gravel piles left behind by previous occupants. They cleaned out with new paving and drip irrigation after locating the new plants, with close coordination with us at every step of the way. Their work ethic and professional expertise combined with their years of experience along with innovative solutions has resulted in a total revamp with pleasing results to our complete satisfaction.The bonus is the saving in water use and minimal maintenance. We have no hesitation to recommend them for landscaping and sprinkler irrigation systems design and implementation!

Teng Chau was willing to come look at our property even after we were honest about how much we could spend. Teng walked around our property (front and back yards) and in less than an hour, had a rough draft of ideas for our yard. He gave us a rough estimate of how much each part of the project would cost, depending on the materials we chose, etc. We decided to just focus on our backyard first, specifically in the area that is visible from inside the house. We had stone pavers put in to enclose a dirt area we have along our fence. He put in palms, some shrubs, and flowers. That small change actually made a big transformation to our yard. We are more than satisfied with the work that Teng and his crew did. They were understanding of our needs and limited budget and gave us a great finished product! We will be calling him again next year to work on the rest of our yard.

DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY! They are not reliable! After…read morepaying Alberto almost $20,000 he stopped the job midway and ghosted us, wouldn't respond to calls or texts or emails for almost a year. Then one day, he responded to one of our texts asking 'who I was'. (He stated that he lost his phone, which he had told me once before when he ghosted us). I reminded him, and he said that he would come and finish the job. Following the 4th 'no show', he just started ghosting us again. (He did come by one time to retrieve equipment that he left here, I was hesitant to give it to him, but he promised he would return... Nope, he never did). I later looked on Better Business Bureau (BBB) site and saw that we aren't the only ones he's done this to. CHECK FOR YOURSELF, Google the Better Business Bureau site and look for A1 Tree in Pomona, then click complaints. They have a 'F' rating. One person said that he paid Alberto $42,000 and another said $2,500, then they were ghosted. Alberto hasn't even responded to their complaints, yet he applied for accreditation through the BBB. I'm so angry because we were so nice and forgiving and he took complete advantage of us. He said that he was 'going through a lot', and gave us details, so we were kind (and stupid!). And for the work that he did do, all the trees he planted are dead. If you see good ratings for this company, check the date. READ THROUGH THE REVIEWS! Most of the high star ratings were from over 5 years ago, many people have updated their reviews since then with 1-star. I honestly thought that they were out of business since he hadn't returned our calls, texts or emails, but when he came by to pick up the equipment that he left here, he was driving a brand new work truck. Sucks to see that he took people's money and bought himself a brand new truck, yet doesn't even attempt to finish the jobs that he took $ for. He also still has my dead father's chain saw and he's refusing to answer texts regarding that. Thanks for nothing Alberto. You took all the money we had saved up, now we don't have anything left to hire someone to finish your job.

We utilized A-1 Tree Service in spring of 2023, finding positive reviews and an estimate in line…read morewith what we thought appropriate. Spring forward to November 2024. The artificial turf is buckling, has developed areas of depressions under the turf, along the seams some of the turf is lifting, the drainage system he installed is failing and we just had to spend a large sum of money to have another company come out and repair and redo the work done by A-1. They discovered errors in installation and poor use of infill material, insufficient for the amount of turf we had. Drainage ports from the system he installed along the entire length of the patio were found to be covered over with weed barrier so that rainwater could not drain, resulting in the underneath base being washed around under the turf leaving depressions and lumps. We too experienced very poor communication over the couple of months it took to complete the project and only finished the project through determined frequent messages. Empty promises were made and deadlines missed. They miscalculated the time to complete the project, as they often didn't show up for lengths of time and when our hard stop deadline loomed, they rushed to finish but left obvious signs of lack of concern about their final product. Rocks and debris were pushed under bushes, we had to dig out the drain system where it came out in the front yard due to failure to calculate the slope for the actual act of draining to take place, and leaving it up to us to redo work he told us was complete. Drip lines under bushes were incomplete and we had to finish doing the install. Plants removed for various stages of work were poorly replaced by heaping some dirt around them without digging holes and most died. We don't believe he thought we'd actually examine the work. We're not sure of the quality of the turf he used, as no selections were offered (shame on us for not doing our homework better) and we're not so sure we weren't just given an inexpensive version. One compliment we can give is the concrete work that he arranged, but we definitely would not use him for drainage or sprinklers or turf again.
