The Yard was booked for 2 weeks out when I called for service. But in exactly 2 weeks, I received a call that they had an opening. Although I was not at home, they knew exactly what I wanted done and did so. When I came home from work, my yard was clean and look awesome. I would highly recommend Th Yard for any work you need done. In fact there is other work that I plan on having them do, remove bushes, palm tree, prune bushes and palm trees, etc.
Description of Work: Large yard needed weeded and mowed.

Perfect! Val is an excellent individual with a great personality . He works extremely hard and makes sure all details are addressed. He always asked me if there was anything more I needed done. Very reliable. We used Val's service for two years and if we were not moving away he would be working for us for a much longer time. I HIGHLY recommend THE YARD!!!!

HE DID AN FANTASTIC JOB AND HE HAS EVERYTIME HE HAS COME OUT EVERTIME AFTER THAT FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS. I THINK HE DESERVES ONE OF YOU HIGH SERVICE AWARDS. HE IS ONE OF THE HARDEST WORKING PEOPLE I KNOW. SOMETIMES, HE IS ALL BY HIMSELF AND HE STILL DOES A GREAT JOB. THE ONLY SAD THING I HAVE TO REPORT IS I AM LOSING HIM. I AM HAVING TO MOVE BACK INTO TUCSON, INTO AN APT AT THE END OF THE MONTH. I WILL MISS THE GORGEOUS WORK HE DOES. BUT THE NEW OWNER IS GOING TO PICK HIM UP. ALSO MANY OF MY NEIGHBORS HAVE HIS NUMBER I ONLY WISH HIM THE BEST. IT'S HARD TO FIND SOMEONE WITH THAT KINDOF WORK ETHIC THESE DAYS. PLEASE GIVE HIM YOUR SUPER AWARD. HE HAS EARNED IT. THANK YOU LUCY GILLUM RANCHO DEL LAGO VAIL, AZ
Description of Work: VHAL HAS BEEN WORKING FOR ME SINCE BEFORE HE WAS ON ANGIES LIST. I JUST MOVED OUT TO VAIL, AZ FROM TUCSON. I COULD NOT FIND ANY YARD PERSON THAT WOULD TALK TO ME EVEN COME OUT UNLESS I AGREED TO $300.00 AN HOUR. I THOUGHT THAT WAS HIGHWAY ROBBERY. I PUT MY FEELERS OUT AND VHAL CALLED ME RIGHT BACK. HE CAME OUT THE NEXT DAY, ASKED IF I HAD AN HOUR AND DID THE WORK ON THE SPOT.

It went well. He was knowledgeable of the type of rock needed. Very handy and skilled with the tools of trimming trees. My trees are shaped in a décor type fashion, and he did an excellent job with them keeping the precision of perfection.

Val was very easy to work with in regards to scheduling, had a really reasonable price for our initial yard clean up (which included tree removal) and has maintained a very reasonable price for our continued monthly yard service. He always sends a quick text to remind us of his scheduled service day and does a fantastic job keeping our yard looking great! (Even our HOA can't complain! Can't beat that!) Thanks Val, for all the hard work!

I've tried a couple of different yard companies, but Vhal gives a good deal and is good. Nice guy. On his last visit, he forgot something we talked about, but came right back out and took care of it.

It went very well. We use Val for projects as needed and monthly maintenance. He does a great job with trees. His prices are very reasonable and the work is quality work. He is very straight forward and transparent, no drama or up-selling like you see with other larger companies. We would absolutely refer him to others.

We were very pleased with the services that Vhal and his crew performed both times we hired them. They helped us with landscape design ideas when they came out for estimates, offered very competitive pricing, and completed all work just as promised in a timely manner. We will be using The Yard for our future landscaping needs and recommend them to anyone needing landscaping work done.
Description of Work: We hired The Yard to level out a section of our back yard, then install decorative rock and rose bushes including drip irrigation. Several months later we hired them to install shrubs and decorative rocks at a rental property we have.

Vhal is very professional. He calls the day before he arrives. He has been working for me for almost 2 years. He does a very good job. I'm happy with his service. When he has the time he does other small projects for me, a very nice thing to do. He is honest and trustworthy.

I have had Vhal maintaining my yard for a couple of years now and am very pleased. He calls ahead and is always there when promised. My larger bushes and trees have to be trimmed to meet HOA requirements and he makes sure I am always in compliance. Once all the work is done, he cleans up thoroughly.

Our house is currently listed for sale, and we are out of town. Vhal coordinated the estimate, and services remotely for us, which scared me a little. However, he did a great job, and everything was very clean and polished! He took before and after photos for review before we paid him. We went back a couple of weeks later, and things still looked great. I did have to call around a bit to find someone that did work in Vail and am glad he did the work for us. My husband was very impressed with the work vs price!

Awful! Do not hire this company for tree work. My parents asked to have the tree trimmed and this company butchered It. They removed at least 5 or 6 large lower branches which were blocking the afternoon sun from the house and produce a beautiful canopy. They didn't bother to tell them how much they were taking off. I'm afraid we will have to dig up and replace the tree as it can never come back from what was done! Plus I feel they are more expensive than other companies! If you choose them, make it crystal clear what you want because they don't communicate with you on what they intend to do!

Response from The Yard
I responded to this already but for some reason it didn't go through. I have never had a complaint about my trees, ever, up until now. The beautiful canopy in question was about a foot and a half off the ground. I took the canopy up several feet, thereby saving her parents money down the road. As it will not have to be done for awhile. As far as having to dig it up and start over that is just silly, it'[Member Information Removed] a tree and will grow back. As far as price, what she failed to mention is that I also trimmed several shrubs, fixed multiple irrigation issues, also removed a stump after the fact for no additional charge. We here at The Yard are not happy unless the customer is. If someone is not happy we will fix it for free. If anyone is reading this and is on the fence of calling us feel free to go to Home Advisor where I have several reviews, including thirty plus five star reviews. Unfortunately there are some people you cannot please, who resort to slamming a hard working small business.

In our many years present on our property we have enlisted the services of many "Land Scape Specialists". We have been eager to secure the services of a provider we felt we could count on for both attentive service, as well as regularity. To this point I can say that Vhal Paz of "The Yard" has provided.us with those basic building blocks for a long term relationship. I am satisfied with his level of service Vhal has provided and hope to continue forward with "The Yards" services.

Elimination of undesired new sprout runner growth in and around agave plant bases.Loaded and removed all materials from the property. Applied pre-emergent to all problem areas of yard.

Vhal was really easy/great to work with. He came by to give me a free estimate and his price was less than another bid I got earlier that day. He showed up on time to clean my yard and didn't leave until it was all done & I was happy. He and his worker were quiet but polite and got it all done. My yard looks great and I'm thinking of hiring him for monthly maintenance now. Highly recommend--it's tough to find people these days that are reliable and honest that do a good job.

Had tried several yard svcs but they were unreliable. Vhal gave me quote on monthly maintenance that was reasonable & I hired him. He always calls ahead, does job thoroughly & efficiently. Being an elderly widow, I appreciate his honestly & respect and feel sage in his presence. He is a keeper.
