Sundrop Gardens Landscaping

They were great, everything about it was done well. He was a good communicator, he was the one who contracted Suncrete to do the flower bed rocks.

When I met Manny, he was very conscience. Manny was able to give me a visual design of what my front yard could look like, which no other company had done for me. I have been exceptionally pleased with their work. They did a phenomenal job. I would recommend them unconditionally.

Sundrop Gardens Landscaping did a great job with our recent sod installation. Very happy with their work, attention to detail and professionalism. Highly recommend!!

Sundrop Gardens provided a quote that was 20% less than any of the other 4 that we got for the same work. They did a great job and completed the project in less than a day.

Manny came out and looked over what we wanted done on Monday and said he'd send us a bid. It's Saturday and haven't heard anything from him. I had good vibes from our walkaround but have decided to hire someone else--time flies when you are trying to get your house on the market! -James

Manny and his crew at Sundrop did a terrific job renewing, revamping and fixing all of my front yard landscaping. Manny's quote was well within my budget and his final price was spot on. I liked his design ideas and the execution was done with complete professionalism. Not only did he meet the tight deadline, he beat it by more than a week. Would definitely hire again.

Every aspect and component of this job, which I overpaid for, has gone wrong and required replacement since my $5,309.66 ripoff! I contracted Sundrop Gardens/Manny Hassenteufel and crew to remove sod from a small side yard of sod, install a pathway in that space with stones and edging, create a shrub wall with sky pencil hollies, install a Japanese Maple, and prep the remaining space for other trees with mulch and leveling. 70% of trees/shrubs planted died despite watering, landscaping wasn't planted properly nor of decent quality, and work performed was NOT in line with city standards requiring a FULL TEAR OUT of path and ground coverings. First, Manny and crew did NOT advise me that city codes would make me have drainage and elevation differences nor did they build in said elevation differences to pass a city inspection. I hired the company to remove sod and dirt and ultimately create a shrub wall where no existing drainage problems existed. Ultimately, they did not remove/excavate enough dirt/fill for the job to pass inspection. My neighbor called the city to report me for improper grading after a summer rain storm resulted in water going higher than his foundation level as a result of the improper grading and natural flow of drainage. Next, the Japanese Maple tree began struggling immediately after planting. Manny promised a replacement, never delivered and stopped answering calls. Third, the sky pencil hollies purchased were not planted at the right depth and were likely cut at the bottom of the root base to compensate leaving them weak and unstable upon planting. Half of the 12 purchased have since died and had to since be replaced. The others will likely not grow properly as intended. Fourth, all of the path way and ground coverings put in had to be ripped out to comply with city code requirements. A complete waste of all mulch, stone, and edging purchased. Once I notified him of the city's findings, he tried to charge me ANOTHER $2,000 to remedy a problem he created. Fifth, he stopped responding to all calls and texts. I am in the process of seeking civil restitution for damages incurred. He is a part time landscaper and not an honest nor quality businessman. Lastly, to remedy all of his defects to date, I have spent more than an additional $3,000 to regrade the back yard, reground cover, replace all trees/shrubs he planted which have died. I still may be exposed to another $1k in losses depending on whether the remaining shrubs he planted will survive next year. By the way, all the other landscaping work done by Treeland and others is thriving fine... please see pics. STAY AWAY and learn from my mistakes to avoid similar misfortunes!!

We had some hedges put in plus the annual trimming and general yard maintenance. He does an excellent job every time. By the way, this is the 3rd time Manny has done work for me. He's replaced plants that were ill-suited for my yard with better plants. The yard looks amazing.

It was a wonderful experience. They were in and out in a day and a half and were very responsive to our needs. I laid some extra work on him at the last minute and it was done with no issues. The estimate was a good $1000 less than the other companies I looked at. Everything was beautifully done and looked great when all the work was complete. I’d highly recommend this company to anybody.

They did not answer my phone calls or respond to my emails. Finally got a call after I cancelled the Angie's List order.

They asked me if I wanted to keep the blooms on certain bushes and otherwise did a great job of cleaning up the bushes/trees. They were running late, but sent me a message to let me know which I really appreciated!

I would highly recommend this company, and plan to use them again. The work they did was a dramatic improvement.

I paid, never heard from them, called them, never heard from them and got a refund from Angie's list. Refund was provided. DO NOT HIRE!

They arrived on time and did a great job removing everything. They also bagged and took the yard waste away.

Manny and his crew were very professional and friendly. The crew performed the cleaning of our front flowerbed quickly. They trimmed up the remaining bushes without me asking. For an additional fee, Manny provided mulch and spread it to the proper depth. Our front flowerbed looks great. I will use Sundrop Gardens again.

They did a good job but I had to constantly remind them to trim my hedges.

It went okay they promised to do the work one week and came three weeks later but the overall work was okay

They did a great job. All the bushes are gone and I am very pleased.

Excellent job! Had problem at first with responsiveness but he explained that he was bombarded with response to coupon on Angie's List. Once we synced up work and professionalism was awesome!

The work was performed as scheduled. One area needed additional fill dirt, so Sundrop picked up and delivered a pickup load. We paid an additional $175 for the fill dirt. The workmen did an excellent job of cutting and laying the sod. All work was completed within 3 hours.

great!! They were very efficient in getting soil ready and planted with grass.

They did a nice job. They were prompt and did the work asked of them. I asked them to level the yard a bit and fill in some holes in addition to laying the sod.

Manny and his crew showed up on time and worked quickly and efficiently. They raked and bagged leaves, collected broken branches, and general clean up. Excellent results!

Sundrop did a very good job and I would use them again.

Supposed to have a sprinkler tuneup. They never contacted me.
