I saw Norman working on a neighbor's yard and asked him to do an estimate for me and he came right over and by the next day he had an estimate ready. It was midway between two other estimates I'd had done, and because he was responsive (while the other companies delayed and didn't return my calls), I decided to use him. Two weeks later, my wall was finished. (This was in December, so not the busy season for yard work!) Norman is a careful worker who takes pride in what he does, communicates well, and truly wants to make his customers happy. I was totally satisfied with his service and highly recommend him.

Although I think the price was a little high for the size of the area, Norman and his crew were punctual, friendly, organized, and worked quickly. They were conscientious and did a good job cleaning up. After two weeks, there were several bare spots where the grass seed had washed away or didn't sprout. Norman came out and reseeded the area and like a true professional who stands by his work, he didn't charge for having to come out again.

Norm came out and made some great recommendations. What sealed the decision is he actually called and followed up a few days later with some other ideas. We ended up expanding the project to include landscaping the front beds and a side area (rock section with paver border around utilities and AC unit). Their quote was not the lowest but felt they would do the job right. Norm's team started right on time (actually a day early) and spent 4 full days at the house. They took out several truck loads on rocks and really cleared the yard. They add two large truck (18-wheel) loads of top soil which was really needed and not everyone was planning to do. Norm recommended tall fescue sod over blue grass which other landscapers were suggesting since it would handle the environment better. Sodding was completed by the 4th day and Norm provide sprinklers to use to water the lawn and went over the water schedule. Norm check back regularly to ensure the grass was doing well. 4 weeks later, even with putting the sod in over the two hottest weeks of the summer, the yard looks awesome! Highly recommend Norm and his team.
Description of Work: We had a new house with a very poor grade job with a ton of rocks. We needed to have the yard graded, rocks removed, new top soil, and sod put down. We had received three quotes, one from the builder's contractor was very low and when asked they were reluctant to even add some top soil. The other two landscapers visited the property and commented that we had one of the worst lots they had seen. It was the last built house on the street and had been a dumping ground for awhile for rocks.

Called for an estimate and assessment of issues of settlement in our yard. Norm was very personable from the first contact, timely with initial appt, and very knowledgeable. Norm walked the entire property assessing what needed to be done and pointing out issues that we hadn't noticed. He throughly explained what would be done, timeline for completion, and provided a quote for the work to be completed. Norm started and completed the job within 4 days of the initial appt. The yard looks great..they did the whole job without the use of heavy equipment so our yard would not be damaged. Norm explained thoroughly what we needed to do to get the sod and seed growing, what fertilizer to use, watering schedule, and further maintenance needed in the future. We are very pleased with the completed project. I would definitely use Pitzer Landscaping again and would highly recommend them, as they do great work!

Norman and his crew were amazing, from the initial quote to the miracle they performed. The back yard is amazing, the paver patio looks new and is a space for entertaining. The vines are all gone. The trees are trimmed and you can now see the house from the street. We will use this company on our future projects. No need to look elsewhere! Call Norman
Description of Work: The entire back yard was a jungle, overgrown, weeds everywhere, could barley notice the paved patio. The house was covered with vines and trees blocked the view.

He responded very quickly to request for estimate. He made time in the schedule quickly and got the work done earlier than anticipated. A small issue arose during the work about just how something was arranged, and he immediately re-worked the plan.

Norman was prompt to come out after I requested an estimate to be done for some yard grading and gravel install. His price was fair, communicated with me well on the job timeline, and was able to complete the job in a few days (first spraying the area to kill the weeds, etc. and then doing the grading + gravel install). All and all, I was a very happy to have chosen Pitzer Landscaping to complete the job!

Norm and crew started right on schedule and finished the entire job within 3 days, as estimated. He has continued to follow up with me every week or so to check in on the progress of the sod and provide recommendations for future care. Yard looks great, receiving lots of compliments from family and friends.

Norman was very helpful in providing guidance and suggestions on how to improve each item that I wanted to have done. His suggestions on plants to remove and new ones to add was spot on, the area looks very clean and is exactly what I wanted. Also, the grading done was great - prior to this I was worried about water flow into the house I just purchased and what he has done provided the confidence that I don't need to worry about that anymore. Great Job!

Norman responded to the voicemail that I left describing the situation within an hour of having left it. He was already on a job in our area and offered to come over the same day to assess the situation and give an estimate. Once he saw what we needed we set up a time 3 days later for him and his crew to come over and grade the area. Norman called the day before the work was to be done and said that the weather forecast for the day scheduled was calling for massive storms to roll through the area. He asked if he could come out that day and get it done. When he showed up with his team they worked very quickly but very meticulously. Norman was directing the work himself while raking the dirt to exactly where it needed to be. Once finished, the area looked completely new. I would highly recommend Pitzer Landscaping. Anyone can have a strong work ethic - what sets Norman apart is the philosophy that treating people right is the core of maintaining good relationships. He truly believes in working for you and your yard, not just how many jobs he can do in a day. This is evidenced by the fact that he was booked about 4-6 weeks out, but found the time to come take care of our situation while already in the area.

The job went extremely well. By having all the work done at the same time the landscape gained an overall trimmed and tidy look to everything. The job took about 3 hours to complete, but everything looked nice and neat when they finished. Norm is very easy to work with and explained everything he was going to do before they started. He and his crew picked up the marble so I didn't have to. That was greatly appreciated. Fantastic job as far as I'm concerned. I would highly recommend them.

Norman came over to provide an estimate and immediately recognized the urgency of getting the job completed as soon as possible. He was willing to pull guys off current jobs to come over the same day to complete the much needed lawn grading at my home which I really appreciated especially since rain was in the immediate forecast. The job was done promptly and I was completely satisfied. They even took the time to turn the existing mulch in my flowerbeds, which wasn't part of the work they hired to perform. They were very professional and thorough when explaining to me exactly what was done. I was also impressed by how well they cleaned up after the job was complete, there was no excess top soil or mulch left in the lawn or in the driveway.

We called and asked for an estimate. Norm came by within a week and wrote an estimate. We decided that we wanted to talk about options, so Norm came back within a couple of days of the request. He provided us with a couple of options and a strong recommendation. We went with all of them, and we are glad we did. We mentioned several issues with our lawn, and he remembered every one of them and took care of them all. The sod in the back yard looks fantastic, one month after laying it. The seeded areas in the front didn't fill in as well as we'd hoped, but it looks much better than it used to look. Norm always called ahead of time and showed up on time. He even returned in exactly two weeks to complete a part of the job, exactly as he said he would. Overall, we were extremely pleased with the service.
Description of Work: Our back yard was dug up during a home remodel. After we accepted the estimate, Norm killed the weeds and sodded the back yard. We also had grubs and weeds in the front yard; Norm and crew amended the soil and re-seeded those areas. Norm and crew also put river rock around our air conditioner (this was his idea, and a good one).

Description of Work: regade and reseed lots of area take out and replant some bushes
Norm communicated with us on every step of the project. He gave us detailed information about how much we needed to water and what we needed to do to maintain our beautiful yard. Norm and his employees came back several times throughout the summer to replant seed, fertilize and irrigate. He followed up constantly to make sure the grass was growing well and we weren't getting any flooding. In just less than a year our yard is absolutely stunning! We have thick bright green grass and gorgeous mulch beds.
Description of Work: We called Norm for a yard renovation. Our yard's elevation was very low compared to other homes on our block. Our yard would flood every time it rained, grass would not grow and it was extremely bumpy. Norm arrived to give us an estimate and gave us very detailed information on how he could transform our yard. Norm brought in a semi truck filled with topsoil which raised the level of our yard. New grass was planted throughout the summer. He also added mulch beds for us and created an area below our deck using river rocks.

Very well. Norm and his employees did a good job and were pleasant to interact with. The job took several days and they cleaned up the drive and sidewalk at the end of each day. Norm is very good about staying in touch and communicating what will be done when.
Description of Work: Yard was in very bad shape, overrun with tough vines and weeds, many bare areas and little grass. They stripped the entire yard (front and back); brought in topsoil and peat moss, adjusted grading in back, laid sod, and returned for touch-ups and fertilizing. Provided instructions on feeding, watering, and mowing. They also cleaned out several beds in front and back and put down new mulch.

The lawn renovation was a positive experience from the very beginning. Norm responded immediately to my initial request for his recommendation on what to do with the lawn, including an estimate. He was professional and pleasant to work with throughout the process, as were the members of his two-person crew. He truly seemed as interested in creating a beautiful lawn as I was in having him do it. Norm was flexible and willing to work with me as we went through the process, including a couple times that I changed my mind about things like the shape of the new beds. He made an active effort to keep me informed throughout the process, calling regularly to let me know what would be happening next and when it would be happening. The quality of the work was excellent. Norm continued to check in after the lawn was seeded to make sure it was getting enough water and being mown properly. The end result is the beginnings of a beautiful lawn and landscape. The new lawn care guy, who stopped by today to apply the first fall winterizing treatment, was impressed with the way the new grass is doing and assured me we will have the best lawn in the neighborhood next summer. I would definitely recommend Pitzer Landscaping for lawn renovation!
Description of Work: Norm and his crew did a complete lawn renovation for us, including killing of the existing lawn/weeds, removal of existing dirt in the front, regrading the entire lawn, installation of new topsoil, and seeding and fertilizing the entire lawn with a mix of four varieties of tall fescue. They also created several new beds as part of the process, one of which was planted as part of this service while the other two will be planted in the spring.
