Fast, professional, and efficient, Mauricio and his crew at Solid Ground absolutely hit it out of the park on our major yard cleanup. It was a major job - dead trees removed, mulch added, plants trimmed, pruned, and moved. Solid Ground did a beautiful job. Mauricio was incredibly easy to work with - he immediately understood what we wanted and made great suggestions. We settled on a plan, his crew arrived and executed it perfectly. Great communication, great work, professional, and nice to boot. Couldn't ask for anything more. I guarantee you Solid Ground will be coming back to our place. read more

There were 3 guys that showed up and went to work right away. A good job was done with the backyard tree, as it needed thinning. I have junipers in front of the house and those were cut back. They did a great job on the juniper "bonsai" tree in front. I think I got my money's worth and I will call them again in the future when everything grows back! read more

Mauricio is great. Reasonable pricing, easy and flexible scheduling, right on-time and did exactly what I requested. Solid Ground tackled a challenging tree pruning job with expertise and speed, as well as other clean-up and trimming and hauled everything away for us. FIVE STARS! read more

Overall: Couldn't recommend for anything irrigation related. Context: We had a leaking backflow preventer in our backyard irrigation, and he came by and inspected it for about a minute before saying it needed to be replaced. We have a device that tracks minor leaks and he said that would resolve it. The Good: They came to replace a backflow preventer in our backyard relatively quickly and did the work as requested. The Bad: After they finished the installation, I looked at my leak monitor and noticed my water was now running 0.4 gallons per minute, which is substantially higher than the 2-3 gallons per day I had before. I had to stop him and force him to take another look as he said there was no issue. He continually tried to shift blame to me saying it was there before but I would have noticed such a significant leak as it quickly turned our previously dry backyard to mud. He charged us more to resolve it, and after coming back the next day, they turned on the water to the back and the backflow preventer still leaked. He then said it was due to another issue he didn't initially diagnose. All in all, he he did install some new equipment in our backyard, but charged significant money and didn't fix the initial issue. read more

Amazing work! Easy to communicate with, reliable, patient and excellent results. My garden looks fantastic ! read more

I had Mauricio's team clean up my front yard of Bermuda grass which I'd been battling for the last year. They cleaned it up very well and took the top couple inches off along with all the roots, rhizomes and hopefully weed seed bank so I can start a native garden. I was very happy with how it turned out and hope to hire them soon for a fence replacement as soon as I find a surveyor. read more

I can't say enough good things about Mauricio and his crew. The work was outstanding and fast. He also made really good recommendations and I felt he was honest and reliable. At first, I was hiring for a simple cleanup, but after speaking to him, I really wanted to hire him for a lot more work. For the bigger garden irrigation fix, I have to wait until I have more budget in the spring- he understood. But, he added some trellises that transform the space without breaking the bank. I highly recommend. read more

Mauricio and his crew helped remove a pygmy palm that was growing out of the sidewalk strip in front of my house and blocking half of the sidewalk. Mauricio was extremely communicative; he was able to come out the same day I messaged to look at the tree and give me a quote that was significantly cheaper than some of the other ones I received. A couple days later, his crew did a thorough job removing the palm, including the substantial roots, and clearing away all the debris. Communication was excellent throughout and payment was easy through Zelle. Highly recommend Solid Ground Landscaping and will use them again in the future. read more

Mauricio and his team went above and beyond for the landscaping job we requested of them. We had a lot of overgrown weeds, vines, and tree branches in our back and front yards, but the Solid Ground Landscaping crew were professional, efficient, and paid close attention to the quality of their work.

5+ stars! Mauricio with Solid Ground Landscaping is amazing! I found him on Anji's list on a Monday and my yard was complete by Friday. We had overgrown trees and shrubs to trim as well as weeds to mow down. During my free quote with Mauricio, I knew his company was the one I wanted to work with. His knowledge on trees, plants and shrubs is vast. Friday morning, Mauricio started with his crew and pickup truck. 8 hours later, he was finished. While he was there, he suggested cleaning the gutters and backyard for a very reasonable additional fee. When I came back from work, everything was done. I was wonderfully pleased with the results. On top of that, he didn't leave a mess. I'll be using his services again for future gardening needs. read more

Mauricio is responsive, friendly and detailed oriented. I asked for a quote late Wednesday afternoon. I get a call back minutes later. 30 mins later he is looking at my overgrown backyard. We literally had more than a foot high tall weeds and grass that overtook our entire backyard. Our toddler was not able to play on her outdoor play set. He gave me an affordable quote, promised to come the next morning at 8:30am. An hour later... voila! His crew was super clean and efficient. I highly recommend Mauricio. I wish I had before pics so you can see how overgrown everything was. read more

Mauricio and his team were incredible. I had an irrigation issue that was causing me a major headache-- water leaking everywhere and a system set up in a really confusing/inefficient way by the previous owner. Mauricio came and re-did the entire thing in half a day and showed me how to use the new system. I really appreciated his attention to detail and professionalism. I'd highly recommend him for any and all landscaping and irrigation needs. read more

From the start, the consultation with Mauricio, with Solid Ground Landscaping was thorough and professional. He listened to our concerns about our old lawn and explained exactly how the new sprinkler system and sod installation would work. Their estimate was fair and detailed, so there were no surprises.

He revived what could be saved and ran new lines in the front, where the old lines were clogged with dirt and roots. He is knowledgable, responsive, and easy to do business with. Highly recommend. read more
