I choose Rick's landscaping because of the postive reviews. Rick came on may 22 I belive, and he was on time I showed him the back yard and told him what I wanted done.He gave me an estimate of $1800.00 and knowing what trees and what labor was involved I was satisfied. Rick said with the holiday coming up and as to how busy he was it would have to be June before he could get to it. I expressed I needed it to be done before June 10th, that we were going on vacation for a week.Rick said it would be done before the 10th and that he would call me after the holiday. On June 2nd Rick called and said he would be here Monday the 4th at 7:30am. June 4th arrived and Rick and his crew arrived at7:30am. He had 5 workers and each one knew his job.Two started on the waterfall,two started digging out the large dead treeand the 5th one started on the drip system. When trees were planed they started on the lighting and layed new rock around took out the old stump and trimed the Oleander. They had everything done and cleaned up by 11:30am.I had a $100. coupon if over $1500 and Rick gave me the discount.Best workers I have ever seen,they were polite and cleaned up and I will have them again in fall to do something with the front yard. Thanks Rick for a job well done .Sally
Description of Work: I had a defunked waterfall removed and a "24in" tree planted in its place. also a large dead tree was removed and a small palmtook its place. Rick had his workers check and replace heads on the drip system. and rewired the lighting system.I also wanted an oleander tree trimed and a small stump from a peach tree dug out. I also had new rock layed around the outside border

The entire experience was good from beginning to end. Rick has a team that has been working with him for years and they do work together like a well oiled machine. We had a couple of small changes on day one and Rick accommodated them and offered good advice on our future stages. He recommended places to check out things like water features and firepits. Overall, a good experience. We're excited to complete the entire project and see the final results (probably in a year).
Description of Work: We contacted several landscaping contractors and ultimately selected Rick's Lawn and Landscaping. He listened to our vision for the yard and included everything we requested in the final design. We had asked Rick to put together a plan in stages, with the first phase being the design, flagstone, plants, irrigation system amd preparation for the next phase. The design was simple and elegant and left plenty of opportunity for future personalization. Day one, Rick's hard-working crew dug trenches for and laid the water, gas and electrical conduits, put in the irrigation system, and did all the planting. Under Rick's direction, the crew worked quickly and efficiently and, at the end of the day, left everything tidy and clean. Day two, the crew put in most of the flagstone patio and pathways and positioned 500-600 pound boulders. We used a substance called "fines" and it turned out to be a terribly windy day so not all work was completed day two. Day three, Rick's crew completed the flagstone work. When they left, everything was immaculate and the yard looked beautiful. Rick was friendly and receptive to questions. He explained the process, how/when to water the plants, how to care for them, what kinds of things to be aware of. Working with Rick was a great experience and we are looking forward to working with him again on Phases 2 and 3.

Rick is prompt to respond to your call, and he immediately gives you a price and narrative of the job followed by a written agreement. When we had to go to STAR Nursery to pick out plants and trees he met us there promptly and assisted in suggesting what type of plants and size will fit our plan. He is very patient and you feel he arranges the plants as his own yard. He supervised his experienced crew that you can see have worked many hours along side eachother and knew what they were doing. The work was flawless!
Description of Work: Rick is the reason Angies List exists. To find a needle in a haystack of landscapers armies in Vegas is stressful. We hace used Rick"s services several times and we will always use his company and recomend him to everyone. When sprinkler bubblers don"t work he sends his forman Eric right over to fix the problem with a smile on his face. The crew when they come for seasonal cleam up is a fine oiled machine of a 1?2 doz. or more and effectively brings the property back to a manucured apperaence in a rapid manner. Hope Rick gets new business from my comments. If anyone has questions i am willing to send an email response anytime at sal.granati@gmail.com anytime. Rick has become a friend I trust him and have him go to my friends when they need landscaping needs. He will be back to maintain my landscaping seasonally!

Rick seemed to be on the telephone most of the time while his crew of (2) worked on the yard. . He charged me $150 an hour to come out the next day after calling him. Once he was there, he said it would be a quick fix and I requested he come back the following week at the rate of $75/hour if it would be a long time. He said he was an expert and it ended up taking him 2 and a half hours. The new piece was replaced but he did not leave the older one, which was brand new and put in 2 days ago. This piece costed $58-$60. He called his plumber friend to come over and replace the part which he was unable to, which was a higher rate because he had to come over with no prior notice. The plumber replaced a my old toilet with a new toilet I already had in the garage. I think he took advantage of me. I would not use him or his plumber friend again. There were many red flags and I feel he was very dishonest with me. He seemed to stretch out the job to up his total price because these fixes should not have taken so long.
Description of Work: A pipe was leaking causing an irrigation problem. The piece to be replaced costed $58-$60.

Response from Rick's Lawn & Landscaping Inc
When the member called , I tried to set up an appointment for a later date but she said her water was turned off due to a neighbors gardener who said he could fix her leak. After 2 days and $450.00 later she fired him. The other guy had removed several pipes and made a couple of new conections that looked suspicious. She was experiencing water pressure loss inside the house since he did so.I told her I wouldn't touch it until she had a plumber look at it. She asked if I knew any, so I gave her his name and phone#. He works for a big plumbing company in town.The next time she called, she was thrilled with what he had done. The pressure was back and she got a new toilet installed.I went back out, I gave her a price of $150.00 an hour to fix what somebody else couldn't do properly. I DID NOT tell her it was gonna be a quick fix.I DID NOT tell her I was an expert at anything ( an x is a has been and a spurt is a drip of water ). I am a professional and I did a professional job. It took us 2 hours of chasing down pipes and hooking them back up properly. She happily wrote the check and we were on our way.

Rick is easy to work with and performs as he said he will. We found him on Angie's list and he came out with to discuss what we needed. He then returned with a well-drawn out plan and sample of artificial turf he would install. We had to get approval from our Architectural Committee which took approx. 3 weeks. When I call to say plans had been approved, he was here the next day to put in our beautiful new yard.
Description of Work: Rick's Lawn & Landscaping changed our very sparse and ugly front yard to a show piece. We had the "builder's" landscaping and it was mostly crushed rock with a partial dry creek bed. From that, in one day, he developed a curving dry creek bed with an island and wonderful and colorful landscaping. We also requested he place articial turf (only thing we can use in our development) and neighbors now think we have placed sod. Used only the highest quality turf. Rick is wonderful to work with and his crew is top notch. Highly recommend this company.

I was referred to Rick's from another company who said they were too busy. Rick's advised his minimum price by phone. I thought it was high but maybe in line with the high-price area where I live. I had no prior yard work done here, and I had nothing to compare with. I advised him the estimate (minimum quoted) was acceptable and made and appointment. He called a few days later and requested and received an extension in the start date. He met this date only about an hour late. He was there to verify the work with me and gave me his firm price and they began the work. He departed leaving three men doing the work. They finished about three hours later, all work was satisfactory and done everything in the work request. The quality of the work reflected they are an experienced professional company. I would consider using them again, at least for planting work.
Description of Work: sucked up fallen leaves and debris, planted four plants, cleaned out flower bed area, sprayed weeds.

Rick answered the phone every single time that I called. I can't say how comforting that was. I over watered my lawn this summer and parts of it died off. I needed to have it all taken out and re-sodded. I got several quotes and Rick's was not the cheapest, but it was decent and he was much more professional. The day of the demo/install I had to leave early. The job was done before I even got back. They also cleaned and adjusted my sprinkler heads. Thanks Rick!

I would have given this company an A except for Rick never called to set up the appointment for them to do the work. The crew showed up today and was ready to work, I had no idea they were coming. Eric (forman) was great and his crew did a fabulous job! Eric is the one that came out initially and gave the estimate. I will use this company again!

The service went extremely well. I had the owner of the company out for a survey and was given an estimate at that time. Once the proposal was accepted, the owner set a date. On the evening before the work commenced, a dumpster was delivered by the owner to facilitate the removal of all waste and dead foliage. On the morning of the work date, the crew arrived promptly and finished the entire job in less than twelve hours. The front area of my home was transformed. The owner of the service was present, available, and more than willing to discuss the entire process with me. Once the work was finished, the entire area was completely cleaned and finished by the owner and the crew. The final payment was not one penny more than the original estimate. Rick's Landscaping did a wonderful job and I am so happy to have found the service!
Description of Work: The services performed were: cleanup of front lawn, removal of two trees, landscaping the area and xeriscapcing. New plants were also introduced into the newly reformed area.

I realized my back yard plants and trees started looking pretty bad. Checked for water. None! Emailed Rick on a Friday and told him I was leaving on vacation on Monday, and asked if he could at least give me an estimate on fixing the back yard drip. Called me on Saturday morning, came over at about 1 pm. The system was completely messed up with the timer and celinoid(?). Anyway, took him about two hours of intensive testing. He found old parts of my system not in use, and rigged it to work perfectly. It is now hooked up to the timer and he also suggested how and when to set the timer. Wonderful! Will definately call him again.
Description of Work: He fixed the back yard drip system which didn't work at all and synced it to the timer. Used replacement parts from my system, so didn't have to wait on parts or buy anything extra.

This was a complete waste of my vacation time. Had Rick bothered to really read my email, he could have saved BOTH of us considerable time and energy.
Description of Work: I emailed Rick's Lawn Service and specifically requested 2 estimates; one for standardizing my existing emitter / drip irrigation system and the second for weekly lawn maintenance. Rick called me back and set up an early-morning appointment for the next day. When he was 15 minutes late, I called him to find out what was wrong. He'd "had problems with an on-going job, " and had "gotten a late start." I asked him when he expected to arrive, and was told in "20 minutes." He ended up being almost 45 minutes late. When I showed him the front and back yard, and started to ask about weekly maintenance service, he then said, "Oh, we don't get out this way any more!" Since this was what I'd originally emailed him about, I then told him to forget the whole thing and asked him to leave. He'd wasted enough of my time and energy. Seems Rick is too busy to pay attention to several critical things in his business life....punctuality, professionalism, and responsiveness, aka: good customer service! So if you live in the NW valley, don't bother with Rick's Lawn Service!
We were working under a budget and found Rick to be much more gracious and accommodating than the other landscapers. When we shared our budget, his competition literally laughed at us. They suggested they could complete portions of the job within our budget and consequently took their time in responding with their quotes. Not Rick! He worked with us to gently reset our expectations. At the same time, we could see Rick "stretch" himself and our budget to accomplish what we absolutely required (front and back). He was prompt and professional. In addition, he was a savvy business professional. He understood there was alot of addiitonal work that needed to be contracted (more than what we were asking him to quote). Rick worked hard, built our trust and earned a good portion of that additional business! As for the final result ... all I can say is that Rick is an ARTIST! He seriously exceeded our expectations!! There was no way we could have envisioned the amazing contours and "movement" he created in our front yard. He used two distinctive sizes of cappuccino-colored rock, a technique that I haven't seen in our beautifully landscaped neighborhood ... but that created an intersting and more natural looking landscape. Even his work in the back yard transformed a very nice atmosphere and pool area into a Mediterranean RESORT! He seemed to know just the right plants & placement to make the difference. What REALLY impressed us, however, is that he actually made an extra trip to purchase and install more plants than we contracted (and at no charge to us). He added a only a handful of plants, but the gesture demonstrated that Rick was too much of an artist and professional to leave the job looking less than he thought he could accomplish! Since he completed the job, he's visited our home to check on the plants at least once (he stopped by when working another job nearby). In addition, we're currently experiencing a minor issue with a few lights in one section of our back yard. This is a tricky area where Rick had to integrate his work with the previous owner's electrical system. As always, he's been responsive to our calls and I know he'll schedule time to work therough the issue over next few days. How do I know this? Because this process took us two months, multiple visits, untold number of phone calls and a visit to our homeownwer association to work through. We've developed enough of a relationship to absolutely trust that Rick will stand behind his work! In summary, we highly recommend Rick's Lawn & Landscaping! He's proved himself to be a good guy, a great landscaper and a trustworthy business professional. I guess we learned that, once again, father's are always right!! Thanks for the referral, dad!
Description of Work: My daughter asked me to file this report. These are her written words: "I needed extensive landscape repair and design for our newly purchased home. Nearly all of our front yard trees and plants had been removed by the previous owner; and the yard was left barron and flat. It required contouring & tiering, plants, trees, a flagstone walkway, full irrigation, lighting and corresponding electrical installation. Our backyard was in better shape, but much of the landscape had been removed or had died; and the irrigation system was left exposed and and had been neglected for months. We interviewed three landscapers for the job, including Rick's Lawn & Landscaping, Inc.. My father referred Rick to us".

I called Rick's Lawn and Landscaping for a meeting discuss and bid yard cleaning, tree trimming and watering system repair at my home. Rick was on time for our appointment and very professional. Competitive landscaping services told me my property watering system needed costly replacement. After testing the sprinkler system, Rick concluded that minor changes and adjustments were needed to the existing system to get it running properly, saving me hundreds of dollars! Rick's crew arrived at the scheduled time and quickly cleaned the debris (tons of pine needles) from my yard, trimmed shrubs and trimmed trees. Everything was cleaned up and hauled away. I was impressed by the follow up and the fantastic customer service! I will definitely call Rick's Lawn and Landscaping again this spring.

I did not have him landscape my yard.
Description of Work: I called Rick and he came out to give me an estimate for a landscaping job for my small backyard. He came back with $2400. I almost fainted!! Way, way too much for such a small yard. He called me a couple of days later and said he had "crunched" numbers and came down to $1400. Not happy and did not use him.
