First time we used Yelp for a project. It was convenient that there were numerous messages that…read morewere sent out to various tree specialists. Noe Pablo was the most thorough in messaging through the Yelp app, so my husband and I chose him. I had 2 medium-sized fruit trees I needed to transfer from my parent's home in Southeast San Diego to mine in North County. I took pictures and he gave us a very reasonable price. We also decided to also add another service to take out our palm tree. There were a couple of mishaps such as: The day he was scheduled to take out the palm tree, he was a no-show and my husband had to call him an hour after he was supposed to arrive. Then, the day after that incident, was the fruit tree transfer. He and his team forgot to bring their dolly. Thank goodness my Dad had one so they borrowed it, but now we have the burden in taking it back. Despite these mishaps, Noe was very knowledgeable and professional in his mannerisms. The day of the fruit tree transfer, he and his team arrived in a timely manner, was efficient and did a great job overall. We were very pleased and will definitely use him again if we have another project.

I found Carmelo on Yelp while searching for a reputable landscaping company to redo our front yard,…read moretrim our large backyard fruit trees, add a timer to the irrigation system, and take care of a few other tasks. I got multiple quotes, and while his pricing was very competitive, what really stood out was how quickly he responded with a detailed quote--much faster than the others. He was also friendly, professional, and clearly very knowledgeable. His crew just finished our project in 5 days, and my husband and I couldn't be happier. They did excellent work, were respectful of our space, cleaned up thoroughly each day (which many contractors overlook), and worked hard the entire time. Gabriel ran our job and he was excellent and always had a smile on his face. I've already shared Carmelo's number with two friends and will absolutely continue to refer him to anyone in need of a great landscaper. We'll also be using him for our monthly maintenance. 5/5--thank you, Carmelo!

Many years ago I laughed and laughed at a comic strip in the newspaper (remember newspapers?) in…read morewhich a character showed off her new wristwatch to her friends. "It's an Albert Einstein watch. Not only does it tell you what time it is, it tells you why." I'm going to tell you how great IEED is, and then I'm going to tell you why. But I'm no Einstein. I'm just a very satisfied customer. We bought a house in Carlsbad. We didn't care for the landscaping. So we looked around for a company that could work with us to re-landscape our new home. My wife found IEED, and they came over to talk to us. By the time our initial interview was done, we had decided we wanted them to do the job. They gave us an estimate and a proposal. We loved it. We signed the contract and they did the work. We are very happy. It was a huge job. We wanted old vegetation taken out and new installed. We wanted people to be able to see the house from the street, and we didn't want a thicket of overgrown greenery blocking views in either direction. In IEED's proposal, they pointed out that one of the reasons the existing landscape was that way was that everything was too sloping, too slanted. They proposed to terrace the property, so that it was a series of flat spaces held up by retaining walls, with stairsteps joining them. We would never have thought of this, but it's done now and we love it. The people are great, and design is great, and we are really looking forward to just being in it. OK, why are they great? Because the owner/ringleader/boss, Patricia, has it all in one brain. She's an artist, a visionary, a project manager, a team leader, and a source of endless positive energy. And she buys donuts for her hard-working crew. Her young sidekick/assistant, Andrea, shows signs of being every bit as good. There's no need for the design department to have meetings with the construction department because it's all the same person. The construction manager doesn't have to say to the designer "I don't think that will be possible" because the construction manager *is* the designer. Lots of designers try to manage construction, and lots of construction managers try to design. Patricia Jones of IEED actually succeeds. Brilliantly. Half a dozen times while I was watching the crew do the work, I thought "Wow! These people are so skilled, so talented!". It's not just the boss that's great--it's the whole company. I feel a certain obligation to say something that's not effusively positive, so I'll say that I find the name of the company to be so long and preposterous I can't bring myself to say it out loud.

Unpleasant & unprofessional experience over a 4-month, $100K+ job. The *crew* (the guys actually…read moredoing the work) did a decent job overall, which is the only reason I'm rating 2 stars, but the rest of our time working with Patty and Andie was nothing but awful stress and I would strongly suggest that you hire someone else. They rolled out the red carpet to charm us and get us under contract, and then were treated as last priority. We did everything we could think of to improve communication with them, but they just didn't seem to care about anything other than getting the job done as quickly and cheaply as possible so that they could get paid. Patty and Andie flat-out lied to us many times over the course of our project. The first and biggest lie from Patty was that she would be on the job site every day to make sure things were going along well and make sure our questions were answered. She's repeated this lie in social media videos. After we got under contract, she immediately went on a month-long vacation w/out telling us, leaving us confused as the crew started demolition on our property. When she got back, she showed up at best twice a month to film instagram selfies. Andie said she would be at the site every other day, which was laughable. It's not clear to me what was keeping them so busy, but clearly we were not a priority. There was zero attention to detail. They mis-measured constantly. Ordered too many materials and charged us for their mistake. Then they ordered too little material for our deck which caused weeks of delays, and an inconsistent color in the planks. They constantly would put things into the ground in the wrong location and I'd have to go ask them to move it. They threw away an entire cord of firewood that I had planned to burn, and it was like pulling teeth just getting them to just apologize for it. We went out of our way to be understanding and easy to work with, and that respect was never returned. The crew left trash everywhere on our property throughout the project. They damaged our stucco and never repaired it (even after I called them out on it). And when the project was complete, not only was there trash all over our property, but Patty just texted us with "... we are done with your project. Let me know if you have any questions." That was followed by a text asking for the last payment. Not a single "thank you". Not a single "nice working with you". Not a single "are you happy with everything?". Landscaping can be very expensive and stressful. Do yourself a favor and spend your hard-earned money with someone that will treat you and your project with the respect that it deserves.
