I've had an issue with weeds in the lower half of my yard over the last couple of years and decided to hire a pro to help. A quick search on Yelp gave me a few options, but Valley View Landscaping was willing to come out the fastest for the most reasonable price. Robbie used a mix of weed killer with a pre-emergent on our weeds, and within a few days they had died. It's been a couple months since and they haven't come back. If you're having issues with weeds, give them a call! read more

My yard has been overrun with weeds since I moved into my house. I had run out of ideas, and decided to hire a professional to fix things. I found Valley View online and decided to give them a call. The manager Robbie Came out later that day and spent about an hour with me going over all of my issues. Robbie was helpful and seemed to possess an almost encyclopedic knowledge of weed control methods, chemical usage and overall yard care. He sent a crew over shortly after he left and they treated my lawn. I woke up this morning, and less than 24 hours after they treated my lawn, the weeds are already shriveled up and dying. I'm very happy and will definitely be using them for ongoing maintenance. read more

I'm in the process of selling my home and just had my regular landscaper install new sod so that the yard looks good for showings. Well, the sod came from the farm slightly stressed and yellowed, so my yard still looked ugly. My landscaper did not have any advice on how to get the grass dark green before open house this Saturday morning. I looked on Yelp and found Valley View. After about 45 seconds of explaining what my problem was, the manager Robbie asked for my address and said his technician would have it fixed by the end of the day (Friday). I was astounded by the results. I'm attaching before/after pictures for comparison. Thanks to their team for bailing me out! read more

One of the trees out front of our property was damaged by the freeze this past winter. After an Arborist told us the tree was not going to last, we reached out to Robbie. He was able to check out the tree and give us an estimate while we were out of town and then was able to get the work done on our schedule. The team was in and out, and even removed some limbs from another one of our trees that they saw as a future issue. TOTALLY RECOMMEND. Thank you Robbie and Team! read more

I was first introduced to Valley View landscaping via a friend of mine, and am I glad he did. We initially reached out to them when we were having trouble at a commercial property that we manage. The grounds looked horrible and we were in desperate need of knowledge and advice on how to bring the area back up to par. Insert Valley View landscaping. From the the very beginning, the handled all the little things that we didn't even realize that our prior landscaper was completely avoiding. Not only have they complete turned around our maintenance and overall look of the area, but they have also advised us on some amazing new additions, that when really installed correctly, will last and greatly improve the overall look of our park area. Can't say enough about the service level, and the end results that we have had. Keep up the great work. read more

I highly recommend using Valley View Landscaping. Not only did Robbie personally take the time and effort to treat my yard, but he personally outreached to me to make sure everything was in tip-top condition (which because of him, it was)! If you are looking for someone to actually care about the health of your yard, call them today!! read more

Valley View Landscaping - Less than 1 month after Valley view treated my dallis grass!! - Landscaping Near Me - Austin, Texas

I am really impressed with Joseph and Valley View Landscaping. We had some stubborn weeds and it doesn't help that some neighbors aren't killing theirs. Joseph came by and did a treatment for a reasonable price. The weeds were resistant so he came back and took care of them. Only a day after the second treatment we are seeing them die. He has been super professional and responsive, even checking in with us to make sure we are satisfied. We will continue to use Valley View Landscaping! read more

Valley View Landscaping - Landscaping Near Me - Austin, Texas

I spent some time in my yard this weekend pulling an unmanageable amount of weeds, and my back is paying for it now. I still had some weeds left in an area I did not want to venture into for fear of what might be lurking in there. I contacted Valley View Landscaping and Robbie came out the same day to help me with my weed issues, fire ant mounds, and even adjusted my irrigation system so it'd be the most effective with keeping my grass and plants watered at the right amount. I was truly impressed with his knowledge and professionalism. If you're reading my review and trying to decide which landscaping company to go with, look no further and save your back and body from the pains of yard work. Valley View does it all: lawn maintenance, irrigation, weed treatment, tree trimming, aeration, and landscape design. I will be recommending them to everyone I know, and will definitely use their services again. I'm including a before and after picture of the area I didn't want to pull weeds from so that you can see how effective his products are working on my weeds. It's been only half a day since he sprayed and the weeds are already starting to die! Thanks again, Robbie! read more

Robbie was recommended to us by our neighbors but his work speaks for itself. Their lawn looks amazing! He is very knowledgeable and takes the time to explain what he is doing and what to expect after each treatment. After the first treatment, the stubborn weeds we have been combatting for years are starting to die and the lawn is looking healthier. We will definitely use their services for all of our landscaping needs. Thank you Robbie! read more

I'll let you decide if you want this to happen to you too. I posted a photo (tagged "INAPPROPRIATE PRUNING") of how they manhandled the tree in front of my home. Here's what my neighbor had to say about it: "Your redbud is not ruined, but it is disfigured. The "arborist" used an inappropriate pruning method called "fox tailing" where all the interior foliage is removed leaving foliage only on the branch tips. This pruning method makes the tree structurally weak until it recovers; all the weight is at the branch ends. It is similar to holding weight with your arm fully extended as opposed to holding the weight closer to your body. It also appears that at least one crossing branched remains. Additionally, "branch stubs" and some "flush cuts" were left instead of of removing branches at the "branch collar" site. "Heading back" or "crown thinning" techniques should have been used. These methods retain the tree's natural form while either reducing its size or decreasing the density of the canopy, respectively. The good news is that with your watering and fertilizing, the tree should recover in one or two growing seasons. I taught horticulture at Ohio State for 32 years and served on the ISA Certification Committee for six years. Sorry for using the technical language, but there is a science to proper pruning; pruning should not be left to the untrained. Poor pruning practices really set me off." ***UPDATE: My response to their response below. I am apprehensive about getting into a he said / she said with a company that still will be providing a weekly service to my yard, as I will always think there's animosity against me for posting this review, but I feel the need to respond to their response, since my review wasn't thorough and didn't really tell a story. - The response by the landscaping company suggests I'm not a customer. How am I not a customer, if I pay my HOA fees and that includes landscaping of the yard, bushes and trees by my home? My money is directly paying for their service, and I also have the right to vote to keep this service or have us find a different landscaper. - I never disagreed that the tree needed to be trimmed to conform with city codes, which were all facts shared with me AFTER all this happened, but that's a whole different story. - What I am disagreeing on, is the way this tree was trimmed to almost nothing. Looking at the tree in person, it's obvious even to a non-tree expert that plenty of branches could have been left, and the tree would have passed any city inspection, while having left it in better "shape". - When looked at closely, most of the cuts left branch stubs and look horrible, and those are not work from the prior landscaper. From a distance, you can clearly see that the tree branches that are left, form a V in the middle of the tree, and this is far from "symmetrical", a word they used below. Even their own staff that came to pick up the braches agreed with me when I asked them for their opinion. I spent close to an hour researching how to trim a redbud, and not one website suggested this as a result, or that it should be cut back this drastically in one session, or that this should take place in the middle of August, instead of early spring after it blooms. - It is erroneous to say that they weren't done, because the only thing done to the tree after I took that photo, was to simply spray the cuts with some sort of protectant, and even that wasn't done 100%, as the person who did it only reached up as high and far as standing on the bed of his truck would allow. I watched this take place. - To suggest that my neighbor didn't actually see the tree in person, chat with me, and confirm his initial opinion he got from my photo is speculation. I can only guess that they take notes from reading our community FB group page which they shouldn't even be on, since it's intended to be a private page for homeowners, and not 3rd party service companies. - There are numerous trees touching homes throughout the community. There are also numerous redbuds that haven't had this type of trimming ever. I will assume those will be the next to get this "Bonsai" trim for health reasons, however, I am not an expert. - Finally, in the response below they claim they reached out "to see if there was anything we could do for him". This couldn't be farther from the truth. Nowhere in the email is there any question on what they can do. The email thanks me for calling and for my Yelp review. It goes on to state the city codes (they reference below) that they needed to tend to, and then they asked me to consider changing this review from the 1 star I gave them, which I will not do. The reason for the tree trimming is fine and I agree with that; the result of their approach to the tree trimming was not good and that is what I am rating. I do hope they can look past this, move on, and spend their energy earning back my respect by doing good work. read more

Valley View Landscaping - INAPPROPRIATE PRUNING - Landscaping Near Me - Austin, Texas

I have been a customer of Valley View for over 2 years. I hired them soon after I bought my house. I knew nothing about how to maintain the landscaping around the property. In addition to the work they do, they have also taken time to educate me on things I can do between their visits to accent my property. Valley View is not the cheapest grass cutter on the block. However, I think the quality of their work clearly highlights the difference between your local grass cutter and a professional landscaper. They are worth every dollar. read more

Highly recommend!!! I recently moved to Texas and wasn't sure how to get rid of the pesky weeds in my backyard. Joseph did a great job and was super friendly! read more

Valley View Landscaping is hands-down the number one Landscaping company that I've ever used. I was having a really, really bad problem with Dallisgrass taking over my lawn. I had Real Green out for a quote because I've used them in the past. Their technician was honest with me and told me that it would take to to 3 years for them to chemically remove what had taken over about 1/3 of my lawn. At my last wit, I had Valley View out and I'm happy to report in less than THREE treatments in one month - That same Dallisgrass has died off, leaving room for my Bermuda to thrive in it's absence. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Valley View! Now my neighbors are next and we all couldn't be happier! read more

I've been a client of Robbie and his crew for almost two years now, and I can whole-heartedly endorse the consistent quality landscaping and maintenance work that they've provided for my home. They've not only turned my brown grass green, but have helped with tree trimmings, removal of unwanted vines, and irrigation repairs. More importantly, Robbie is always available to lend advice and consultation and his team is courteous, professional, and hard working. read more

Valley View has maintained our commercial property on West Campus for about 4 years. We have always been impressed with their knowledge, responsiveness and ability to get jobs done on budget. We would recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade to a professional landscaping company. read more

This company is highly recommended by my neighbors so I reached out to Robbie for a quote and to have him come by to treat weeds in my yard. He got back to me within 24 hours and got my yard treated. Reasonable price and friendly service. I look forward to seeing the result! read more

Good local business and the owner communicates well. They are much more professional than other local lanscapers we have used. We had them do a spring clean recently and they trimmed up all our trees and did tons of clearing and mulching. It looked great and was finished on time. read more

I needed sprinkler heads capped prepping for concrete work. These guys came by and we're extremely helpful. Explained to me how to avoid issues with my irrigation when they do come to lay the patio. Highly recommend! read more

Robbie and his team have been a part of my HOA for a while now - and my landlord recommended that I get in touch with him to take care of some poison oak which was overtaking my back yard. After a quick phone call with Robbie, he came out a day later and took care of my whole yard. Not only did he get all of the poison oak out, but he also took out all the weeds (which made my yard look like a jungle) and sprayed organic weed killer on top of it. He then came over the next day and power washed my patio, got rid of some hornet nests and put teak oil onto my patio chairs. Overall, my yard has had a huge facelift. It was super easy to get a hold of Robbie; he is very responsive and gives regular updates of what he's up to by sending photos while on the job and texting information to keep me in the loop. Super easy to talk to, don't need to worry about a thing while they are over. I will definitely have Robbie come over and help with other yard issues again! read more

Working with Valley View landscaping and Robbie has been a pleasure for the past 2+ years. They have been reliable and knowledgeable. We manage our rental property from out of town, so it is important we can find people who are honest and good at communicating issues that come up with us promptly. Robbie has been wonderful in this area! He sends pictures and calls whenever he sees something that needs to be brought to our attention. He lets us know fun things too, like how our favorite rose bush is blooming beautifully. His pricing is great, especially when you see all the care and time he takes to do the job correctly. He is prompt to respond whenever we have a question. He has also been extremely diplomatic when it comes to working with some difficult tenants over the years - making sure to alert us of anything we should know and being very considerate of their wishes. We are so lucky to have found Valley View landscaping and our yard has never looked better! read more
