Our yard started as a train wreck, years of overgrowth in weeds with the lawn having turned to dust/dirt. We now have a beautiful manicured paradise for the kids/dogs to run and play. Ravi and his team completely saw my vision and then surpassed it with the little details, including repairing our broken irrigation systems.

The crew was very customer oriented and respectful. The work was done quickly and precisely. Every team member, from owner to crew, took great pride in his work. Balance Landscaping has a life-long customer.

Balance Landscaping out of Mesa AZ did two projects on my property that included installation of countless pavers, decorative stones, artificial turf, trees, and plants. The follow through and follow up was remarkable and their crews are very respectful and courteous. Ravi is very professional as is Matthew. Both are truly knowledgeable and understanding!

Excellent. Matthew knows his stuff. No short cuts as he walked the project and drew up the plan. The crew was as hard working as I've seen in a lot time. I just had the house built so I've seen plenty of contractors and craftsmen in the last year. His guys were top notch. Communication was excellent as well. Response time kept everyone informed and on time. I would not hesitate to recommend Balance Landscaping. Joe

I could not be more pleased or say enough positive things about Balance Landscaping LLC. I purchased a home, and the backyard was a dirt pit with & rocks with four orange trees. Once I found a design I liked, I called Balance Landscaping LLC. to come over and give me a quote. Matthew came out, looked at the design and the backyard, and discussed the work. Matthew had some excellent recommendations and told me when I could expect the quote; when I reviewed it, it was clear and understandable. I called Matthew to discuss a few final details; Matthew thoroughly explained everything and made sure to disclose the time frame for project commencement. Once the work began, the workers arrived on time and put forth extreme effort and care (in 108-degree weather). When I would look outside to see what was going on, I observed a team that enjoyed working together and was very dedicated to ensuring the outcome was perfect and that I was happy. In this day and age, I thought that the combination of teamwork and customer satisfaction was long gone, but it’s alive and well at Balance Landscape. The landscaping involved grass, gravel, pavers, bricks, sand, boulders, plants, and a fountain. Every item was methodically selected; each boulder was carefully placed according to the plan. There will always be unanticipated obstacles and unforeseen hurdles in any large job. The true mark of a great business is how it handles these situations. In my case, Balance Landscaping LLC. resolved all unanticipated obstacles and wanted to ensure they resolved them to my satisfaction; I challenge anyone to find a company that cares this much about their work and customer satisfaction. Balance Landscaping LLC. will receive my future business. These guys are the Pros! Their work is meticulous, their prices competitive, and their crews are friendly and polite. The project is complete except for installing a water fountain; I wanted to wait until the work was completed before I bought it to ensure it complemented the landscaping. The backyard looks fantastic, and my neighbors cannot believe the transformation; they are very excited to see the final product once the water fountain is installed (I found one and am waiting to get an install date from Matthew). Do not waste your time getting quotes from other landscape companies; you might find a cheaper company, but you will get what you pay for. If you care about the outcome and want the best, call Balance Landscaping LLC.

Needed a small patch of dirt to be layed with turf in our already finished backyard. Got our estimate done by a guy who had very harsh comments about the company who did the major work, so we expected that Balance Landscaping would definitely meet or exceed our expectations. Not the case. The artificial turf that we were assured would match does NOT match. It isn't secured on one side of the perimeter so that edge is lifted. And it was done so poorly that there are gaps between the edging and where the turf begins. So the majority of our yard looks amazing with vibrant green turf and lush foliage and then there's the eyesore of Balance Landscaping's doing that's off to the side.

Balance was hired to finished your project where as your original contractor [Information Removed] walked away from the job without finishing it. [Information Removed] also refused to return unless you paid them $8000 more to finish the job. This is what was conveyed to Balance by you. Balance came up with a solution that was within your available budget of $2000 quite a bit less than what Sanctuary Landscaping was demanding. Your job was completed over 6 month ago in the fall of 2021. This is the first we are hearing of any dissatisfaction with the job or the workmanship. This is all covered under our warranty that comes with every job we do. If you would please at you convenience give us a call, we will work with you to resolve this issue.

Great. Ravi and his crew were very efficient. I wanted to spread sand over the existing pavers and seal them. Ravi advised against sealing the existing pavers as it create a maintenance task going forward to keep them looking good. Even though he lost some work, he gave me great advice.

Ravi basically treated us like family. He is, by far, the most efficient service professional we have worked with. He always responds just about immediately. I call and his "hi" is enthusiastic, like he's happy to hear from me, even though, mostly, when I'm calling, it's because there's more work (and we pay a fixed monthly amount). He gives us weekly service for roughly half of what others quoted. He comes in with a large crew and they work together. Because he uses a larger crew for big jobs, the work is done rapidly. Several other things: 1. I never have any trouble understanding him - on the phone or in person. I don't know where the problem came in that other review. Ravi speaks excellent English and has very clear diction. 2. He really does want the customer to be happy with the work. The first time through, I found a few things that I didn't feel were done the way I wanted and he just kept working until I was willing to sign off on the work. 3. Because we had recently bought the property, the palm trees were very overgrown. When they cleaned/trimmed them, some debree fell into a large swimming pool. They cleaned up the big things immediately but we didn't have a strainer to clean the smaller pieces. Ravi sent someone around the next day with his own strainer so they could leave the pool spotless. 4. When I was trying to rent the house, Ravi and his crew came in on a different day from scheduled just to be sure everything looked great. What I listed above was weekly maintenance including fertilization and weed treatments, mowing, blowing, edging, maintenance of drip irrigation and sprinkler systems for a 1 1/2 acre property.
Description of Work: First Ravi and his crew did a whole property cleanup and trimmed 18 palm trees. They then took over weekly yard maintenance on a 1 1/2 acre property

They did a great job. They trimmed up everything- trees, shrubs, etc. and hauled it all away. He crew worked for 10 hours and took 4 truckloads of debris to the dump! Ravi gave suggestions on plants to remove and what to replace with to add more color to the yard. We are planning on using them for or regular landscape service now.

We don't use them anymore because they got really expensive for no reason at all. They were really not doing a great job so we switched to someone else. We didn't feel like the quality was there and they were way too expensive. The workers were okay and they just did what were supposed to do. There was no attention to detail.

Jackson is excellent. This is the third time I've used his services. I telephoned him and scheduled a time for him to come and he was very accommodating. They arrived a little late but commenced to clear out a lot of overgrowth, trim hedges and trees, including extensive trimming of dead material from a tree. He and his assistant were courteous and thorough, cleaning up after the work very nicely.

Extremely well. Jackson was responsive to my phone call, came and gave an estimate for his work, and showed up in a timely manner. He said it would be more economical for my work to be charged on an hourly basis and his estimate was about 1/10th of another one I had previously gotten for the same work. He had to reschedule because of one conflict but he came right on time at the rescheduled time. He was extremely courteous and started work right away and didn't delay or drag out the work because it was on a hourly rate. He cleaned up the area very nicely afterwards.
Description of Work: Trimmed two ficuses, two palms, one large yellow nut tree, bird of paradise plants, lantana and shrubs. Cleaned ground area as well.
