JOSE G ALVAREZ GENERAL GARDENING

Jose and I assume his family were done in two hours. He had done work for me before and at first glance it seemed alright. When my wife came home she found many areas had been missed or poorly trimmed. After about two weeks the blackberries started coming back, so the roots had not been poisoned as I had been promised and that brought the price up to $650. I called him and he has never returned my call.

I used to trim the shrubbery and care for the yard too, but I am now disabled and cannot do it any more. I talked to Jose 3 years ago and we discussed that I could not do any work out there any more and that he needed to do it all. I have discussed the problem and it continues. Shrubbery is growing into roof. Weeds are in the flower beds, wild trees are growing in the flower beds,and dead plants parts are in all the beds .

I wanted an estimate for my mother's lawn to be serviced. We had a day planned and did not show or let me know the why no show, I live in Utah and was hoping he could help me.

They are our regular weekly lawn service. We asked for more than just Blow & Go and are paying a premium for it. They are here every Saturday. Sometimes we just get Blow & Go ... but sometimes they also do maintenance. We have no plans to change gardeners.

Great service. On occasion they rush and the lines in the lawn look sloppy but they always make up for it with extras. I would recommend highly.

Mr. Alvarez is always on time, performs his work swiftly and efficiently. If asked is willing to take care of additional yard work (sprinklers, tree removal, etc). Mr Alvarez has worked with us for more than 6 years and we are very pleased with his services. I would not hesitate to reccommend him.

We have a very large, fully landscaped property and Jose is very reliable and does a great job every week. Occasionally we ask him to do additional work like tree trimming or shrub removal and he always finds time for this extra work. He charges a reasonable amount for this additional work.

I am very happy with the yard service.

He was very professional, and did the work right away. I would hire him again. He even donated some stakes, worked some soil amendment, and trenched for drainage.

Jose and his crew were fast and efficient and cleaned up all the yard waste

We've had Jose's services for about 8 years.They mow,edge,trim,remove leaves,and repair sprinklers at NO additional cost.We are having an interior privacy fence built,and one of the sprinkler heads needed to be moved.Yesterday the owner himself came out and moved the sprinkler about a foot.Also of note, we had a spot in the front lawn that just was'nt getting wet enough,I called Jose,left a message to maybe adjust the spraying radius of the sprinkler heads on each side of the dry patch of lawn.I was concerned,came home and they had installed a sprinkler between the two existing ones.At no extra charge!!!They do not rush and I would,and have recommended his service to others.Thanks Jose..............

They have been very responsive in getting quotes and things. We are still evaluating the project and getting quotations. They are the only ones I contacted so I can not compare them to anyone else. The only problem is that they have only given me a verbal estimate, no written estimate. That would be my only complaint. I would say that they have been good at answering questions.

I pay him $70 a month. He does a decent job. I would recommend him.

He was excellent. I was very pleased with the outcome of the service. He was respectful, professional, and on time.

I really think he does good work and is very intelligent. I would recommend him.

lousy. See above for details.

Despite my concern towards the last few months before I had stop my business with Jose due to bushes and edging was lacking behind, my overall experience a good, very good from the beginning because Jose and his crew revive my dead lawn to a new green lawn. It was like a miracle how within months, our lawn was green once again. Also the bushes and edging was always well kept, except towards the last few months when i terminated the service because it fell behind, and thats why my and quot;Qualityand quot; grade is currently a and quot;Band quot;, else it would easily be an and quot;Aand quot;. I did made contact with Jose and he sent his crew out asap and got it done, however, my heart had already move forward to find a replacement, but instead, I decided to now maintain the lawn myself. Hopefully soon, It is possible I might work out a better bid for Jose service when I need him every 2 months, instead of twice a month. Thank you Jose.

Contacted by e-mail through the Angie's List site. Explained the work needed and size of my yard. My current lawn care provider was unreliable and I wanted to change. Never received a call back.

My husband and I had been living in our house for over a year and before that it had been almost a year that the house was vaccant. The whole yard just needed an updo. Its been almost five months since it was done and I am planning on having them come back out.

Crew arrived on time and date scheduled. Worked unsupervised for most of the day and accomplished what we had discussed. In and out with work done as promised and NO drama.

It was a good experience. He is good and honest. He is also fairly priced. He is just wonderful.

I spoke to Jose by phone and setup and appointment with him. He came by to give an estimate and i described the work to him which included putting two taller plants on both sides. He said he would come the following tuesday morning by 8 and start the work. He arrived around 930 or so with the plants. I couldn't be there to watch the work and my wife informed me after the work was done. I got back from work and was disappointed to see the amount of change to the area vs. the money that was paid. I feel he overcharged me by quite a bit. The sprinkler system and pipe connections were already available. No tall plants on the sides. Two small rose bushes. I feel I paid 100$ for the plants (if they cost that much!) and 400$ for couple of hours of work. I called him back to let him know I was not pleased with the result but he seemed to be convinced 500$ was the right amount. I feel $350 would've been the right price. I just hope my lawn comes back to life after the fertilization. It had dried up due to broken sprinkler a while back (which I fixed myself) and was just struggling to come alive evenly.

I called and left a detailed message of the work I wanted and never heard back from them.

They did a good work. They were prompt and professional. They are reasonably priced. I would use their service again if needed.

He is coming out once a week, and seems to do a good job.
