I contacted Fernando to inquire about removing lawn and dirt from my back yard in order to facilitate the construction of a deck. He was available to meet me the next day to give me a quote, he worked with me on the price, and we scheduled the work 5 days later. On the day of the job, he showed up with his crew a little early. Unfortunately it was raining (freak thing in LA...) and they weren't able to do the job that day. He said we'd have to reschedule at a later time in the coming week. As this put me in a time crunch I asked if they could come back the next day instead, which was a sunday. He said that if the weather permitted he would be here with his crew, knowing that the dirt they would have to remove would be wet and therefore heavier. It was sunny so he showed up earlier than expected and performed the job as expected. He left the premises clean. He and his crew were courteous. Overall the process was smooth and he delivered going the extra mile.
Description of Work: Removed 24'L x 9'W x 1'D of lawn and dirt, essentially 7 cubic yard of dirt from my back yard in order to facilitate the construction of a deck.

Fernando and his team showed up on time, did exactly what we discussed and made the yard look amazing. I could not be happier with the service they provided on all fronts.

Fernando was pleasant, knowledgeable and extremely professional when I met with him. I needed all grass, weeds, dead plants and a small tree removed from my backyard. I then needed a redesign with mulch, dg and drought resistant plant installed. He got back to me within a week with an estimate that was fair and included all that I needed. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond my control I was not able to hire him but it was in no fault of Fernando's. If things change I will definitely keep him in mind and I plan on referring his services to others that may be in need of landscaping.
Description of Work: Met with Fernando to discuss a complete re-landscaping of my backyard.

Fernando sends two gardeners each week and they do far more than the "cut and blow" guys we used to have. They understand horticulture, knowing when to leave alone the spring flowering bushes until AFTER they bloom, THEN shape them. We haven't seen them bloom for 10 years because we could never get our previous gardener to understand that he kept trimming off the flower buds with his monthly "shaping." Finally, with Fernando's crew, the bushes in front of the house are in full pink spring bloom! Beautiful! They also take initiative, and have kept our Bird of Paradise, bamboo, and raffis palms neatly trimmed. I highly recommend this company.

I've had Fernando's guys coming to my place every Monday for the last year or so, and they're fantastic. They do everything they're supposed to do correctly, and they even do a little more - occasionally I'll find that they've put new succulents into one of my empty flower pots, or added small accent plants to my front garden. Can't recommend them enough for gardening work. I also reached out to Fernando to handle a tiling / gas fire pit job in my back yard and he got it done very affordably.

They were very efficient, as advertised. There ended up being a couple of areas that didn't grow in, but they came and replaced the sod and installed a few more sprinklers in area. All of these repairs were finished in about a day so it was timely and efficient. They had really great reviews on Angie's List so we felt comfortable going with them.

Fernando is a very attentive service provider. He was timely, professional, and computerized...which I loved! Invoices and Estimates were all set up via email and were very timely. He did EXACTLY what he said he would do when he said he would do it. He responded promptly to any questions or concerns I had. If I wanted something adjusted, he took care of it. If an adjustment I wanted would give me more piece of mind, he did it. After installing the system, he tested it carefully and allowed me to carefully walk the entire system and inspect everything. I feel great about his work. PLUS, Fernando keeps a crew...which is important. You can trust that the men working on your project are skilled and experienced. I had some very delicate new plants that could have been easily hurt, and they were very careful - nothing got stepped on or hurt. I am so pleased! Give yourself some peace of mind and hire Fernando. I highly recommend him.
Description of Work: We had removed our lawn and put in drought-tolerant plants. We needed Fernando and his crew to redo the irrigation system to change it over to Netafim drip. Phase one was running new underground lines to all the zones and replacing the valves with brass valves. After my plants went in, they came back a second time to run the Netafim drip lines around the plants to ensure good coverage. They also installed drip irrigation boxes in the ground needed for flushing the lines.

From initial contact with Fernando, he was prompt to reply, visit the property and provide a written estimate. His crew arrived on time, worked with limited supervision, completed the tree removal and trimming processes, and cleaned up and hauled away the cuttings. They completed the work in 2 days. At the completion inspection, I noted several aspects that still needed attention and Fernando had crew return and complete the process to my satisfaction. I asked him to return and give an estimate for work on our rental property. I would definitely hire him again.
Description of Work: Trimmed trees, shrubs and overgrown plants in front and backyards. Also removed 1 large palm tree and 1 giant bird of paradise cluster.

Large vintage Los Angeles courtyard condo with mature lawns, trees, and potted gardens. Plants and trees look much happier with ongoing care provided. Always on time as scheduled, takes extra care, the care homeowners take with plantings and grounds. Example: clean behind trash cans. Cost is just a little bit higher but the result is terrific compared to other gardeners.

7/28/14 they made an estimate which I accepted, in part, shortly afterwards. Despite my many calls and messages, he never set up a date to do the work. Finally 8/18/14 I sent him a message, thru Angie's ad, "today is your last chance to set a date..." I did not get a response. Richard Nielsen 8/19/14

I told him I needed a written bid since I had to provide it to the HOA for approval. He said he understood and took my email to forward the bid. It has been over a month and still no email with the bid. I've called him 3 times and the first 2 times he said okay he would send the bid but this last phone call was a different story. He said he doesn't send bids via email. That the verbal bid is all he can do. He also said, now the bid only covers the trees in the back and not the trees in the front which is completely different than what he said initially. I think we are lucky we didn't do work with this company. They seem flaky, unreliable, and lack integrity.
Description of Work: He came out to give a tree trimming bid. He was very professional, articulate, and seemed to know a lot.

Response from Fernando's Complete Landscape & Hardscape
I appreciate the time you took to write a review.. I am sorry i was NOT able to help you with your landscaping project.. NO WORK WAS PERFORMED AT YOUR PROPERTY.. Because i do a lot of the work my self and manage my crew very closely, I strongly feel that you would have had a great experience doing business with us and probably would have called us back to do the weekly maintenance, which you felt was very expensive. (estimate that was also given to you at the site.. ) -We do not start any project with out a contract which is e mailed to you.. -We do not start a project before doing a initial walk trough on the first day of work , just to make sure that we will be doing exactly what you asked for. -We do not leave your property unless we have done a final walk trough and make sure that we have completed everything you requested.. This is the way we do business, and this is the way we will continue to do business because we have found it to be very effective and this is the reason we have been able to maintain our A Rating.. on Angies list..

I contacted Fernando through the 'contact this provider' option on Angie's List and he got back to me via phone. We scheduled an estimate right away and he was thorough and gave good ideas. The work was scheduled for a couple days later. The crew completed the work in less than a day and I was very happy with the results, it was a lot of work done quickly and it looked great. I now use Fernando for weekly maintenance which costs $150 per month.

There are many things that went wrong. They had no license or insurance. We received a quote, then he charged us more to paint the other side of the fence. When he installed the fence, he did not put it into the earth. It was 5" higher on one side than the other, completely uneven. He didn't install it properly into the ground. It was just sitting on top of the ground. He did not complete the job. Slats were left open, and he refused to continue the work after I complained about the fence being uneven. Yesterday, I received a bill asking for 90% of the payment. He did not even put the fence together properly. Since I have a swimming pool, I had to bring in someone else to finish the job for safety reasons.

Response from Fernando's Complete Landscape & Hardscape
Hello Mrs [member name removed].. Thank you for your comments.. We did our best to take care of you as we would do with any other angies list member.. We talked about insurance and license , i made everything clear to you . and i also sad that i would not take the job. if that was your concern , but you still agreed to do business with us. I do not understand what worries you now.. We had about 5-10 meeting with you just to get this fence.. project. because you had many many questions which i was more than happy to make trips to see you and show you how things were going to be handled. Because i understand that attention to detail is important i really did not mind coming out and talk about the fence. We agreed on standard one sided fece, but when the project started you changed your mind and wanted one pannel facing your neigh boor and the other facing your property. that was also ok with us even though it takes more work.. we still did if for you at no cost. Normally the person paying gets the smooth side of the fence and painting. but later you come up with two more neighbors involved and that you wanted their side painted as well.. for this i did no mind this as well , it does not take a lot of time and we had agreed with you and this time with neighbors that i would paint both sides and you would only pay for the material (paint ) for which i have the receipts. Height of the fence. The fence was 3 inches higher than the old fence.. You very very upset about this.. this time i can understand the 3 inches of the fence sticking up (this was an error that our crew made.. ), that is why we rescheduled another visit to bring the fence to level, at no cost. Fence looked higher on your side because your house was lower, for this reason i called you into your neighboors yard and have a good look before we did a change.. and proceed when we got your ok.. You are talking about uneven fence or that is not leveled. i will explain again the same thing that got you really upset . and because i could not find better word to describe or explain to you , how level work, we eded up leaving .. You were trying to use a hand level and expect point A to be perfectly leveled with point B Your request was everything New and old fence to stay same height. since old fence Point A is lower and point B is higher and you want everything to be same height then we use a string as a guide.. this was explained to you at the scene hoping that it would make sense.. At this point you kept insisting using a hand level and expected the fence to be perfectly aligned. Fence into the ground.. We do not put fenced into ground.. because they absorb moisture very quickly and start to fall apart very fast.. but we just did as you asked, put the fence into the ground There were about 10-15 Slats that were not placed that is why an invoice was sent to you for only %90 i just think that is fair... Once again, Thank you for taking the time to write a review , I have work very, very hard to earn a good reputation on Angies list by providing quality work at reasonable rates..and i am proud to say that our business is family based and thanks to them and their dedication, honesty , and integrity we have a lot happy members..

Fernando is the ultimate professional. I called them to remove some trees and trim some bushes. Fernando came out and made sure everything was perfect. I then asked him to quote me some other things. His prices are very good. HIs workers are all polite and hardworking. Fernando has completed a number of projects here - all expertly!

Fernando was initially responsive and showed up on time for out initial appointment. We talked with him about our project and supplied him with a list of plants and the landscape design. He said that he would get back to us in a week with an estimate but we never heard from him again. I e-mailed and called to no avail. Very disappointing.

I will use Fernando for future landscaping needs as I have confidence in his expertise and ability. A really nice guy, too.
Description of Work: Fernando came out soon after I called for an estimate on having drainage work done in my yard. He scheduled the 2-man job promptly. Both men worked very hard -- digging a drainage ditch around 5 ft. deep, lining it with landscape fabric and filling it with gravel. He topped it with a porous topsoil.
