A Year of Excuses and Zero Accountability - Avoid Thomas Landscaping…read moreIf I could give zero stars, I would. We hired Thomas Landscaping to pour concrete in November 2023, and it's been one long chain of excuses and frustration ever since. By December, we noticed the concrete color was completely wrong. When we contacted them, we were told it was "still curing." That same excuse continued for months -- even nine months later! Despite countless emails, texts, and photos, nothing was done. After consulting several independent contractors, we learned the issue was likely caused by moisture during the winter pour -- and that it would never correct itself. When their own concrete rep finally admitted the same, they still didn't take responsibility. Their insurance refused to cover the work because of missing paperwork and uninsured subcontractors. In the end, we paid $47,000 to have the entire job redone ourselves. Their "settlement" offer? $5,000. This experience has been exhausting, expensive, and incredibly disappointing. Please save yourself the stress and money -- avoid Thomas Landscaping at all costs.

They were great to work with from the beginning of the project from planning and bidding all the way through completion. Everyone we worked with was professional, efficient and helpful.

As promised, when they started (about a week delay to start so they could finish other projects) they stuck with it until it was done showing up every day. It turned out wonderfully. We had a landscape designer and they followed her plan with a few recommended changes which were discussed with us. We love the yard. There was a punch list due to plants/trees not available before completion and they were finally able to wrap it up recently. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Canepa Landscape to people. They were easy to work with, were invested in the outcome and were very fair.

Here's why we love Nieto Landscaping: 1. Jerry Nieto is a…read moregenuinely nice person who is easy to work with. 2. Jerry is very responsive - gets back to you usually the same day if you call with a question or problem. 3. The company offers high quality monthly maintenance of everything on the property and he's only too happy to oblige if you have a special request. 4. Jerry and his crew excel at installing landscape projects - they have created four for us since we moved in a few years ago, and all are beautiful. 5. If you're considering landscaping or lawn changes, Jerry offers expert guidance and decision making assistance. 6. Pricing is very reasonable. If you want the details on some of the things he's done for us, read on. Jerry and his crew have provided high quality monthly lawn and garden maintenance for our property since we moved into our house in 2020. He also has done several special projects. Soon after we moved in, he and the crew created several new gardens out front. They made new raised beds and installed plants, irrigation, and edging. Did a great job. He also offered suggestions on how to conserve water. Together, we decided to reduce our lawn and change what was left to part grass/part clover. Jerry did the installation. It looks great and we have saved water. Last summer, he installed a big job in the back of our property. It involved removing some of the lawn, leveling and enriching the soil, reshaping and edging a large garden area, installing nearly a hundred new plants, transplanting many existing shrubs, and installing new irrigation. The plants are doing fine and we are thrilled with how it looks.

When I responded to point that out, without any apology, they suggested a day more than a week away which I had also indicated I would not be available. Just terrible administrative incompetence.

About three years ago, we decided to change our landscaping contractor in Santa Rosa, CA to…read moreVicelandscape. We have nothing put POSITIVE things to say about Vicelandscaping of Santa Rosa, CA! After quickly realizing that that our previous landscaping contractor was taking advantage of us (you can see my review of BE Landscaping in Google and Yelp reviews), we decided to bring in Mr. Scott Vice, the owner of Vicelanscaping in Santa Rosa, CA. The owner, Scott Vice was very honest and with us as to what he had discovered in our yards. We quickly came to the conclusion that Scott isn't the kind of guy that's going to sugar-coat the issues he found in your yard. He and his able crew went through our front and backyards and pointed out all our neglected and horrible irrigation design-work of the past. He and his wonderful crew (they were all very nice, professional and personable), re-architected the entire front and back yard irrigation systems -- at a very reasonable price. Here's the part that really convinced me that this company was honest. Scott showed us the over-built and totally unnecessary irrigation stations that were wasting water. He also showed us ways that we can save money on our water bill. We liked what we heard so much that we decided to hire him as our regular landscaping contractor! Now our yards look fantastic! I highly recommend Scott Vice and Vicelandscaping!! Give them a call and you WON'T regret hiring Vicelanscaping (landscaping in Santa Rosa, CA) for your yard and irrigation needs!

I had spoken to a few landscaping companies and one failed to even give me a quote and one said their minimum was $30,000. I could not have been more satisfied with Rick. He took a dispirited back yard and transformed it into something beautiful, and spruced up the front yard nicely. He laid down a gravel path for me in the side service entrance and installed a new irrigation system. He did all the work himself, and it was TOP quality! My house has great curb appeal, and my back yard has that "Wow!" factor when guests are over. On a personal note, Rick is a very nice person, courteous and professional. If he were a doctor, you would say he has a good "bedside manner". I cannot recommend Rick and Sonoma Green enough!

Owen and his designer came over and looked at the property then gave us a quote about a week later. The quote was very hard to read as it had quite a bit of legal jargon. I emailed the designer and I said I am having trouble reading this it looks like it was written by your lawyers. Oh my how these two flipped out. They were on a group email and did not know it. The designer told Owen what we said and Owen responded to him by saying "lawyers, WTF this guy is a dumb ass, I knew they couldn't afford me to begin with." Who's the dumb ass now. Any way we fired them and got a terrific landscaper who we are absolutely happy with.

Owen and his company, Mitchell Landscapes, were highly recommended by the landscape design company we worked with. We obtained other bids, but ultimately selected Owen because of how personable, professional, and knowledgeable he was. We couldn't have been happier with the end result. The ten-week project included a concrete patio, retaining walls and steps, irrigation, drainage, lighting, fencing, pergola assembly, gas and electrical lines, plants, ground cover (gravel and mulch), and fire table and hot tub installation. Owen's crew was skilled, friendly and hard-working. His foremen Al and Nestor were amazing to work with and did an outstanding job leading the project. Owen was closely involved every step of the way. He provided numerous suggestions that either weren't in the original plan from the landscape design company or were an improvement to the original plan. This was one of the biggest reasons we're glad we worked with Mitchell Landscapes - Owen's combination of strong design and practical sense resulted in a landscape that far surpassed the original plan. Owen was also honest, transparent, and fully committed throughout the project. Even after our project was completed, Owen and his crew came back several times to check plants and irrigation, as well as to unload and carry a 600 lb fire table into our backyard. After the outstanding experience we had working with Mitchell Landscapes, we will definitely use them for all of our future landscaping projects.
