Jerry and his son did a great job of taking care of my lawn, weeds and trimming up the orange tree and bougainvillea (hanging to ground on my side and not even mine). Great customer service and prices. I would recommend to anyone who needs these services. Great job. Thank you very much Jerry.

I had a lot of overgrown weeds, bushes, and trees. I hired Gonzales Gardening to clean it all up. They did a great job for great price. I have no complaints about the service they provided me at all. 5 stars across the board for me.
