"I have found Rodriguez Landscape Service to be reliable and knowledgeable with excellent customer service. Gardeners have conscientiously worked at turning a somewhat overgrown yard into a neat, tidy, enjoyable garden again. The irrigation crew kept working on a faulty system until it finally seems to be working efficiently and effectively. In addition Raul and his crew are helpful, friendly and listen attentively when I share garden needs. I am very pleased and will continue to have Rodriguez Landscape Service maintain my yard monthly."

"Thank you for the beautiful job with my yard, roof, an gutters. I highly recommend you and your team for the professional work and very reasonable prices. You went the extra mile removing leaves and stump, and putting down weed barrier before adding the bark chips. I love the color. I loved the price."

Customers say: True professional

"My fence had blown down in a recent storm and I didn't want my dogs getting out. All American came out promptly and gave me a quote that day and started the following Monday. The service was very well done and completed in one day. The owner was very polite and easy to work with. I am looking forward to them coming out and pressure washing my patio and decks. I would recommend this service."

"Leo did a great job on our yard clean-up project at a good price. Excellent communication skills which was helpful as this was all done remotely on a second home where I was not present at all for the whole job. This involves a certain amount of trust that the job was done right and Leo sent good pictures of a job well done and there was no hesitation on my part to send the agreed upon payment. He was also very prompt and got the job done quickly within a short window of opportunity. I will looking to set up regular long term yard service with Leo."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Yes, but it depends on what you have planted in yours and the extent of the damage. Hardier shrubs and plants with droopy leaves have a better chance of bouncing back, but do go ahead and cut back any broken branches or damaged portions. Fertilizer can help, but wait until you spot new growth before you feed any plants. 

If you have a large area of brush and vegetation to clear, forestry mulching may be the best option. This method works well for relatively flat areas that don’t have many large rocks or mature trees to clear. Forestry mulching is a relatively quick process that improves soil health, reduces fire risk, and leaves behind usable mulch.

There are tools known as “sprinkler donuts” that are specially designed to aid in cutting the grass around your sprinkler heads by protecting them from your mower or weed whacker. You can also use a pair of hand shears to do the job manually if you’re willing to get a little dirty.

The optimal time to tackle thorn bush removal is during late fall or winter when the bushes are dormant. The plants are less active during this time of year, making it easier to prune and remove. Additionally, you can more easily see what you’re cutting since there are no leaves.

Depending on the method you choose to remove grass, it may or may not matter whether the grass is wet or dry when you perform the task. A dryer lawn will be easier to negotiate with a sod cutter, especially if you're not planning to reuse the turf. However, using a shovel by hand might be a little easier if the ground is slightly damp but not so much that it sticks to the tool.
