Anytime I had a change order Tommy quickly readjusted the quote. It was wild to see a 1 star review on here that was different from my experience. I think there must have been a misunderstanding because Speedy Gonzalez Landscapes has always been thorough and clear. They are licensed and insured. Bless.

Let me start out by saying that the one star is because of bad customer service, and breaking a…read morepromise. Things started out well when I first met Tommy. I signed a contract where he gave me verbal estimate of how much it would cost. He was supposed to do both the front and the backyard. His guys did a great job on the backyard, but they never got to the front. When I asked Tommy about it, he said that the contract I signed was actually an estimate. Nowhere in the contract do I see the word estimate. It is an invoice. He told me he would have to charge me more to finish the front yard because he claimed that the price could change. He came back and finished part of the front yard, but charged me $150 for it. I am now taking him to Small claims court. I am hiring someone to finish the front yard, and then I will sue him in court for the amount that I pay the new gardener.

I'm the Managing Director of Stonepine Estate -- a 100-year-old private estate and event venue in…read moreCarmel Valley. We recently engaged PM Landscaping for a significant paver and hardscape project, and I wanted to share our experience. We collected detailed estimates from four companies. Paolo's bid came in on the higher end, but we selected PM Landscaping for reasons that proved exactly right. From the first conversation, Paolo and his team were unusually responsive -- to our questions, our ideas, and the nuances of a historic property like ours. Finding a contractor whose design sensibility actually fits a century-old estate isn't easy. Paolo understood that immediately. We also had a tight window -- work had to be completed between event seasons -- and Paolo gave us the highest degree of confidence he could deliver on time. He also offered the best integrated approach to tying the new hardscape into parallel garden improvements, which mattered a lot to us. The result: on time, on budget, and beautifully executed. The finished work looks like it's been part of the property for decades -- exactly what you want on a historic estate. Every member of his crew -- including Roselyn and Julio -- was professional and considerate throughout. That matters on a property like ours. I would not hesitate to work with Paolo again, and I recommend PM Landscaping without reservation to anyone seeking resort-grade hardscape and landscaping work.

I will definitely be reaching out again when I'm ready for Phase 2!

My neighbor a block over hired these guys to trim trees blocking her view...that are in my…read morebackyard. They were to do the job on Wednesday but didn't show up until Friday - unannounced. When they were done, they just blew their debris into my planters, left my hose blocking a door, and didn't bother to clean their debris off my driveway. They also moved large boxes and trash cans away from the gate they wanted to use, into the middle my driveway, and didn't bother to move them back, making parking impossible. I guess if you're not paying them any money they don't give a rip about leaving a time consuming mess behind for you to clean up.

If you have an emergency they will get to you ASAP, usually the following day! They have the experience and the tools to get any tree-job completed safely and quickly.

We HIGHLY recommend Arellano for their competitive pricing, prompt service, safety protocols, and professionalism.

They offered to come by right away to take a look, then scheduled me first thing the next morning. The following morning they showed up on time 5.5 hours later, they let me know the work was finished. When I got back, everything looked exactly the way I hoped it would. The yard was cleaned up, the weeds were handled, and the whole space looked refreshed. Their communication was excellent, the price was competitive, and the crew was friendly and professional. The whole process was smooth from start to finish. They went above and beyond, and I'm already considering having them handle my monthly yard maintenance. Highly recommend.

This landscaping young person's business prides itself on what they've done for others rather than…read morewhat they will do for you. Their exuberant prices are far above gardening services. Ambiguous rates fluctuate but the job never is factually stated & what one gets is less the worth paid out....Times of work seems not to be implemented for actual times worked. I'm sure with yrs. of experience they'll do fine....but for now trusting their abilities is in question. Another way of saying this is their worth is equal to how much they're getting paid & not the pride or heart of this work. Alx Krys

So I went to yelp to ask for tree trimming services. Six businesses responded but Torres…read moreLandscaping was the very first one to respond right after I sent the message. Leo the owner personally went to check the trees and the next day Sarah emailed me the estimate. The price is reasonable and affordable. I asked for four trees to be pruned but had a last minute addition of a pine tree, and they accommodate it right there and then. Jose and Jorge came at 9am as what I've been told and worked on the trees, Leo went in to check with them after an hour which I like because it shows that he values his customer and making sure that the work is being done. The guys are very respectful of the property, they're polite and they went above and beyond what's needed to be done. They left my property clean. Sarah is the one who communicates with me through phone about things like payment, and added last minute services. She's kind and awesome, answering all my questions and making sure everything is done according to my liking. All in all, I am very much satisfied with their work, work ethics and their service, I'm glad I went with them. Definitely gonna be my go to for all my yard and tree trimming needs. Thank you guys, especially to Sarah! Pleasure doing business with you!

Leo was very responsive, came by for measurements and his office quickly gave me a thorough quote (it had all the detail and was transparent as to every line item, which isn't always the case).
