I really love this company! From their warm reception (thank you Valerie!) when I called them in a panic about my sprinkler system, to their prompt response even when they were busy with other clients, all of the way to the very competent technician they sent out to help me. I couldn't possibly praise them highly enough. I think the company is very aptly named. thank you, Yard Elves, for saving my lawn and my landscaping! read more

I requested that YardElves bid on a residential lawn-to-xeriscape native garden project. Work included removing grass and a large shrub and installing a berm and gravel pathway. They came out, dismissed key elements of our professionally-designed plan, bad mouthed CSU and the City of Fort Collins, and suggested I plant hydrangeas instead. I did not receive a bid or any further communication. They don't seem to have a vision for low water-use landscapes or natural landscaping, but maybe they will follow up on projects that align with their horticultural preferences. read more

I'm really torn on how to rate Yard Elves. I've had them do a few projects and the quality of work is excellent. BUT communication is awful. And I mean awful. I let it slide initially because of how good the work crews are, but finally the lousy communication from management affected the work and I decided I was done with them. The owner is very personable - I genuinely liked her. But, she's unreliable and disorganized and that is no way to run a business. read more

We recently had Yardelves install a complete backyard renovation at our property. The foreman Alex and his crew did such a fantastic job for us. We had discussed the fact that we were having a get together very soon and needed it completed within the month. Yardelves scheduled us and the work began and was completed quickly and in an efficient timely manner. We couldn't believe how well planned & precise their employee Cora was with coordinating deliveries to get all the materials to the job site. All the neighbors have commented how good my yard looks and how fast the crew worked to get it done for us. Our party event is this coming weekend and we couldn't be more pleased with our new backyard. Thank you Yardelves for installing our new yard, and giving us the opportunity to show it off to many of our friends and family members. read more

The Yard Elves team just completed my full backyard landscaping and I could not be happier with what they delivered. I was expecting it to look good, but the level of detail and time that they took to make sure that everything was up to their standards exceeded my expectations. The entire team was polite, courteous, and treated my yard as if it were their own. I did not intend to set such a bar for my neighbors, but Yard Elves did nonetheless. read more

Yard Elves - a backyard with a lawn and fenced in area - Landscaping Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

We really love our new flagstone walkway! The guys doing the work did a great job. I had some concern on the color of the flag stone that was delivered but they took care of making sure they installed exactly what we wanted. I would highly recommend them and they were a pleasure to work with! read more

Yard Elves are definitely elves! The team just completed my front yard and turned it into a magnificent showcase that has made my neighbors jealous. The team was professional, respectful, communicative, and willing to answer all my questions. Nicole and Alan are a wonderful team together, however their extended team is what completes them. They communicate what is happening and when. When things needed to be changed, it was discussed. I felt a part of the process the entire way and they turned my vision into reality with their professional twist. If you have a project in mind, call Yard Elves. read more

Alan and Nicky's team at Yard Elves transformed our backyard (a blank palette) into a hard scape work of art. The patio included hand selection and placement of a large boulder border and the flagstone base. Attention to detail is key; demonstrated by the careful placement of boulders used as stairs off our high patio and the creation of pathways that leveled off our yard making walking around safe and enjoyable. THANK YOU! When one hears the landscape description: Hard Scape, one does not often think it includes a gorgeous garden. We have both. Thanks to Yard Elves we have a unique low maintenance back yard that is a conversation starter as people walk by on the neighborhood greenbelt. Great work, thank you! read more

Yard Elves - Knowledgeable, Professional, Careful, Trustworthy We called Yard Elves for 2017 autumn trim and maintenance. The front yard xeriscape is a BIG project. We wanted pros to get the job done, and done right. They came, they estimated, they performed: trim, prune, weed whack, mulch, clean-up, haul away. I had TONS of questions which were answered carefully, confidently, and backed with years of experience. The property looks GREAT! We're booking them for 2018, too. I honestly and highly recommend Yard Elves, Inc. read more

Yard Elves does high quality work! They installed red stripstone edging for some flower beds, stripstone around a large red flagstone walkway and a large cement pad/patio that would support a hot-tub at my first property in 2013. The cement pad/patio has not cracked or chipped and the pour was very smooth. The walkway was done in such a way that it is rare that weeds ever take hold in the 'cracks' between the pavers. This home was new construction so there is often shifting and settling that happen with the clay soils. For the items Yard Elves installed, there seems to be no problems with the clay soil. The front step of the home that was poured by the builders is experiencing wash away of soil from underneath but the Yard Elves installed patio is not having that problem. If you want quality work done that won't require a redo in 5-10 years, contract with Yard Elves! read more

This Family owned and operated company provides friendly professional services. They care about their client and are a pleasure to work with. Everything looks great; from landscape renovation, to custom flagstone patio additions. They do not stop caring after the install is complete; providing lawn maintenance, aeration, and full sprinkler services. I'd recommend them for both personal property and business needs! read more

Yard Elves is awesome! Did a great job on my yard and the owner is very responsive and personable! Would definitely use again.

Really pleased with the promptness and professionalism of their service--and prices are highly competitive.

So I have taken over this company I work at and appartenly the landscaping does little to nothing here. maintenance is poor and they hit my sprinkler system with their lawn mower and expected me to pay for what they broke. charging for services they have dnot done. my problem is getting them out here to do the work they promised me. i wont be using them again read more
