They did a pretty good job as far as working. I had a problem with getting orders mixed up and needing somebody there to verify the orders. A gate that was 4-foot high was put 3-foot high. They switched over the fence 5 foot from the edge of the sidewalk. The foreman that was supposed to be putting like a sand thing to the steps sort of pounds it in and scraped it off and made sure it was smooth. The other employees seem pretty good. The owner seemed quite nice. The most problems we had was with the foreman. The gate was replaced at the right height the next day. The foreman wasn't very careful with details. A person needs to be present when the work is done and verify that everything is in the right sections. They also put a sign up on the property before they started work and they never came to remove it.
Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal coupon from AB Landscaping for fencing services.

Everything went according to what they said they were going to do. It took a while for them to get started, but once they started, they finished. Their workmanship was very good and their price was very fair.

I called and spoke to the owner and detailed exactly what I was looking to do in our backyard for one particular project. It wasn't a big project and maybe that's why he blew me off, but after taking my contact info and saying that he would get back to me with an estimate later that day, I never heard from him. If he didn't want the job he should have just said so. I guess he must have plenty of business so he doesn't think it's that important to attract new clients. I have quite a bit of re-landscaping work planned for our yard in the next couple years and will hire someone who can at least show the common courtesy of calling back with an estimate.
Description of Work: None, since he never called me or emailed me back to give me an estimate after telling me he would email me the estimate later that day.

AB Landscaping was the lowest of 8 bids, however we chose them because they seemed more conscientious than the others. The project went well. We are happy with the results and plan to have them back to re-landscape our yard.
Description of Work: AB Landscaping removed our old asphalt driveway, concrete front path and porch, and concrete side path, and replaced it all with pavers. While we had designed the new driveway, porch and paths ourselves, they suggested several changes that improved the end result.

It did not go. They never showed for our appt. I was kept waiting and they did not bother to call. So I did not call them again.
Description of Work: I made an appt with them. They were supposed to be at my house around five the next day. They never called and never showed. Not a good first experience with angies list. It's the kind of experience I have had in trying to find a contractor on my own. I was expecting a better quality of service from contractors who have been supposedly prescreened. I don't remember the exact dates cuz it's been awhile. It would have been a day or two after I joined angiesnlist as a member.

Work went well until paving pattern installed was the wrong pattern. They came and had to redo pattern several times until it was the correct one. Communication on the pattern type was not given to the installers correctly. They finally got it right and the result was great.
Description of Work: Installed pavers in backyard. Cleared soil, compacted gravel, added sand and then placed pavers in pattern in backyard of townhouse.

Contacted AB in May 2008. Came out to evaluate the job within a few days and then met again with owner after more specifics were obtained. AB also met with both patio door representative and general contractor so the job was properly coordinated. AB was far and away very precise and had a understanding of the project that was beyond that of the others involved. The contract with AB was signed in early June and AB waited until the patio doors were in place and then began with their work. AB showed up on time and always had a full crew on site. They continued with the job without skipping any days other than weekends. The total job took approximately 3 weeks to complete. Overall they were very professional and complete.
Description of Work: Put in underground drain system for gutters. Leveled out large patio and and front porch with concrete pour. Laid approximately 1000 square feet of random slate.

Some parts of the work were good others were not so good. The workers were good at some tasks but so-so on others. Overall, I felt it was under-managed. Too much was left to the workers and there wasn't enough quality control.

The project was done in July, a busy month, so we had to wait for people and equipment to be available. Communication with the workers was hard when Francisco was not on site. There were miscommunications in a few areas that caused minor delays. The quality of the work is good and the project was completed very close to the original estimate.
Description of Work: They removed our old driveway and repaved it, created a larger brick covered porch, installed new sod, a sprinkler system and plantings in the front yard.

They were very professional from the workers who did the grunt work to the stone mason who laid the tile. They were on time and cleaned up after themselves. They answered my phone calls to them promptly and completed the project in a timely manner.
Description of Work: They did a complete re-landscaping of my townhouse back yard. I had a serious drainage problem that they tackled first and completed very successfully. They had to remover a large amount of dirt first and then brought in soil amendments. They did a 150 square foot patio in a swirl pattern and then cut and laid tiles over it. They covered two existing porches in the same tiles. The results are beautiful. They also did all the plantings and set up a watering system.

So far so good, look for more feed back as the job progresses.
Description of Work: The are totally doing our backyard. Starting with taking it down to dirt. So far Victor, the "owner", has been very accommodating, and tells his workers on his own accord to "redo" something if it doesn't match his vision. He pushes us to use our common sense and vision, but gives his also. Hey, he does it more than we do. AB has been working on it for about three weeks now, and it is coming along well. Onto the blank dirt, the are installing a flagstone walkway and patio, steps up to a hot tub with flagstone surrounding it, lawn in the middle, two different seat walls in parts of backyard, colored cement/flagstone mix entry walkway into backyard, patio trellis/arbor, over one seat-wall and hot tub trellis/arbor, fountain, irrigation, lighting, plants.

Victor Arellano (the owner) started in masonry, then went into landscaping. He went into business about a decade ago and now has about 8 people working for him. He has trained his men (several are related to him) and they all arrive promptly and work hard whether he is there or not. He stops by the job site a couple of times a day. Most of his men do not speak much English, but he is very accesible by phone. I had a concern about how one thing was being done and he stopped by and had them redo it. He is good about consulting you if changes need to be made. He took the plan we had, made a couple of excellent suggestions, and turned it into reality!The masonry is beautiful - we are very happy with the entire yard. A brick in the driveway cracked about a month after completion and he came back and replaced it. His price was in the middle of the bids we received.
Description of Work: Installation of 'drip' sprinklers, plants, paver stone walkway & patio, concrete (w/brick accents) driveway, brick facade on house, short brick wall and side fence/gate.
