Couldn't have gone better. I found Rodrigo on Angi, but then discovered that several of our neighbors had used him and loved him. We were going to get multiple bids but after talking with him, he was so nice, knowledgeable, and reasonably priced that we decided to go ahead on his removing the concrete. We then came up with the idea of using that concrete as a broken concrete entryway path and decided to have him do that as well when our backyard unit was finished. Couldn't have made a better choice. He's creative, conscientious, meticulous, notices things that we hadn't thought of and just a terrific person to work with. Our broken concrete entryway has different colored stones in between and it looks great, a wonderful entrance to the new house. Rodrigo also did a surface for a bike shed we're building and a walkway to and platform for a hot tub. We'd recommend him to anyone.
Description of Work: We were building a backyard rental house and needed the concrete removed below the old carport and the upper part of our driveway. Rodrigo did this at the beginning and then after the house was finished, came back and created a beautiful broken concrete walkway using our old concrete with multicolored stones in between the broken concrete pavers. He also built a walkway to a hot tub and a platform for the hot tub, and a gravel base for a bike shed and tool shed that we're building.

Rodrigo & team have been providing gardening services for me for a decade now, on a relatively small scale. I'd hired a residential designer to craft a design for a backyard living space, and Rodrigo was my first thought for putting it into action. The team excavated/leveled the space for a flagstone patio and a to-be-installed gazebo. So much care was taken to prep the space, make the ground level, and follow the measurements. They laid the flagstone beautifully. They also built a retaining wall, providing some much-needed planting space. Finally, they laid down new grass, weed-blocker, and wood chips, providing the foundation for me to go crazy at nurseries this summer. I have a few friends who are very experienced with construction, etc., and they all have made special note of how the quality of this work. Note: this was NOT an easy feat from a labor, as 3-4 tons of materials had to be hauled by hand/wheelbarrow from my driveway to the back. I appreciate that they're still talking to me!

Rodrigo and his crew did a wonderful job. He was very competitive on pricing and was willing to do the job, even though there were access issues that made the job more physically demanding. He was timely, completed the job quickly, and went above and beyond what I had asked for. I would definitely hire again.

Got the estimate on the timeline promised, they worked me into their schedule and preformed the work on time. They removed debris from the yard including some tree logs I did not expect removed but was pleased to see them gone. They weeded, cleaned up all areas, spread bark in the designated areas. In addition they did some tree trimming that I think went above and beyond.
Description of Work: In preparing to sell our house the yard needed to be cleaned up, debris hauled away, weeded and bark spread out in many areas.

I've used them before and they've always done a fantastic job. Other vendors often do an OK job, but especially for weeding and cleanup you can see areas where a few stragglers are still there. Not so here. I can't imagine the amount of time spent pulling every single weed. The area is always clean and neatly raked. Rodrigo sometimes is slow in calling back, but when you set a date he is always punctual.
Description of Work: Very thorough job of weeding and cleanup of a really overgrown section of my yard.

All went very well. Rodrigo is very responsive and punctual. He and his crew came and trimmed some very tall Leland Cypress hedges that were overdue and getting close to some overhead wires. During the process, we had a hedge part that needed to be removed for vehicle access during an upcoming remodeling project and they were able to do it on the spot. They cleaned up after they were done and hauled everything away. I was very pleased at the job and value I received versus trying to do it myself. definitely use them again.

We met on the 14th they were a little higher than I had paid in the past. We agreed he could come and mow the lawn the next day. We agreed on bid for pruning, mowing, topping and other gardening. The man that gave me the bid was not the person who came out the next day. They missed the parking strip all together. The men that came, did what was called a high low job. The gentleman I spoke with argued with me about whether the men that came out had mowed the strip or not. I asked that he come out to confirm for himself whether or not it was done. We set up an appointment for Friday. I let him know when I would be available. I waited for him and waited and then I called him. He said he had come out when I specifically said I was unavailable. We agreed he would come back out when I would be available. We set yet another appointment for Sunday and he was a no show. I hadn't heard from him until he ended up showing up at my house on Thursday after I had already had someone else do the work for me. He was shocked that I had someone else do the work after not showing up on Sunday and not calling me. He was completely unreliable.

I think the estimate was about $500. We decided against them. He seemed really busy. It was difficult to get a hold of him. We missed him at one point and then finally we were able to meet up. He seemed like he really knew what was going on in the area and what was applicable to his job so he was knowledgeable and I imagine that's why he was so busy. Like I said he was difficult to get a hold off so the professionalism was a little iffy on that but when he showed up and meet with us he was really knowledgeable.

It went perfectly, because the owner is completely accountable even if he has fellow staff take over every once in awhile, and has been since the day he started to work for us. After living here in Normandy Park for 28 years in the same location we have tried a number of different lawn and garden companies to help us in our yard. Rodrigo is a kind respectful man and we trust him to get the work done in the short period of time he is here every week. He and his crew continue to demonstrate a very high level of professionalism at a very reasonable price.
Description of Work: Two very qualified gardeners, including the owner, removed leaves, weeded our gardens (without hurting our precious flowers!), trimmed, weed whacked and continued the ongoing maintenance they perform on our property on a weekly basis. He keeps our property looking great when we do not have the time.
