Green Thumb - Elinas

At first work was satisfactory and we worked out a schedule but he would not show up, not leave any messages and not return our calls over several months. The last time he was supposed to show up but never did, and did not call us, we waited 2 months and hired another company. If he did want the job he should have told us.

Sid did an amazing job. He was very thorough, meticulous and always kept us informed of next steps in what was a big project. He reconfigured every sprinkler, replaced the valves, treated the ground for root eating insects, fertilizer, and put down beautiful new sod and would call every week to recommend adjustments to our watering schedule. He is now doing our weekly maintenance and we couldn't be happier. His prices are very fair and he does an excellent job.

They did very nice work the first time they came out. Can't complain about that. After that first time, it was just mainly the lawn that they mowed and very little else. Every time my Mom asked Sid to do something other than the lawn, like trim back tree limbs, he always had an excuse as to why he couldn't do it and he didn't. If he wanted more money for these services, he never said so. All of a sudden, Sid just stopped coming by to do the work. No phone call or any other communication from him, to inform us that he would be quitting. This is very unprofessional.

Sid is very responsible and helpful, always doing what we ask - the first time we ask it!

Looks nice.

I have used Green-Thumbelinas for about a year now. They do bi-weekly yard maintenance and they landscaped our backyard this summer. They do a great job each week they come, and the backyard looks amazing!
Sid is great, and his wife, Judy is too! I would highly recommend them. 

He came at 8:30. He was ahead of time. I needed have plastic put down. I am very particular. He put the plastic all around. The 1st he took down, he had to be very careful. He was so good about everything. He did a fantastic job. He was so nice. I haven't had anyone do a job as nice and clean. I was very impressed. The price was fabulous.

Sid and one member from his crew arrive each week at approximately the same time. The two work for approximately 20-25 minutes. The trimming of the bushes has been excellent and looks professional. Mowing the lawn has been fine but the edge trimming is more like a scalping. We are down to bare dirt in some areas and with our water restrictions, we are struggling to get the grass to re-grow. There are several patches of weeds growing in the lawn that are not addressed by Sid or his crew as promised in our initial meeting. I have not seen any signs of fertilizing. When using the blower, debris is left on the porch that I must sweep off when I arrive home. The rest of the debris is in the street gutters and the middle of the street which is not very professional or courteous to our neighbors. When I have asked Sid to perform a particular task in the yard, it is done promptly and accurately. It is possible that I really need a landscaper to help us with the front yard rather than someone who only does yard maintenance.

After a few reschedules, due to the weather, Sid showed up and I was delighted. He was punctual and professional. The crew showed up for the second visit and I returned home to find the work done. It seems difficult to find reliable and consistent gardeners; I believe Sid offers that. I have no complaints and look forward to adding projects, as our budget permits!

Overall, Sid and his crew were very professional, and made sure the job was done well. He also made good suggestions on how I can take care of the area ongoing.

Sid arrived for the initial estimate as promised (Saturday @ 7am). After showing him my front and back yard, he was hired on the spot. He is professional, knowledgeable and a really nice guy. My entire property was in need of cutting, pruning, trimming, mowing, cleaning, etc. WOW!! Sid did such a fantastic job. I am just thrilled. I have also hired him to do my bi-monthly maintenance.

Fantastic! Unbelievable amount of work done. Punctual, very knowledgable about roses, polite, great suggestions, knows about all plants. Perfect job. Coming back to install drip system, and monthly maint. Sid works along with his crew.

I can't recommend Sid highly enough! Sid and his crew did a fantastic job. They turned our dirty over grown mess of a yard into a beautiful and easy to maintain oasis. Sid was very knowledgeable and new all the different existing plants in our yard, and how to revive the plants, as well as what to plant in the rest of the yard given the amount of light available. He had a great recommendation for gravel in our side yard to keep the dirt down, which our two dogs are enjoying very much :) Sid is very professional and easy to talk to and reach by phone. I highly recommend his services.

They keep my yard up very well and there is no drama attached to them. They are very dependable.
