Description of Work: Got a response more than a month after I contacted them. I had already started my project with a different company by then. The rating is only for the late response. Not about the quality of work that they do since I never used them.

We had a great personalized experience with Tobias. He provided everything we needed to transform our backyard from design to installation. He listened to us and was very flexible. His crew works really hard. We get compliments on our backyard all of the time.

I was happy with the work and the crews that did the work. They showed up on time and cleaned up the site each night before they left. The landscaping looks great, and we have many complements from neighbors.
Description of Work: Landscaped the front and backyards, including new sprinkler systems and sod. Added a Redwood Arbor and a redwood raised bed for vegetables. Added a small patio in the backyard.

Prompt service, knowledgeable about plants and watering needs, flexible and is willing to work with my gardener. Next step is to ask him to do all or part of the planting work.

From start (estimate appointment) to finish (detailed, professional cleanup of all areas) this company is tops! Landscape by Tobias was recommended by both our landscape designer and by my neighbor who had just had him landscape her backyard. Our landscape installation was a monster -- by anybody's standard. It consisted of large, individual areas of concrete inscribed with a unique edging pattern along with various sized pillars constructed of stucco veneered cinder blocks with large caps. Tobias spent a lot of time during the project working with me to get the exact effect I wanted. He also checked with me as the project proceeded to make sure that all the little details I wanted were done correctly. He clearly understood the design goals and was able to implement the design perfectly. Tobias is thoroughly professional and has an incredible crew who obviously enjoy working for him. His workers are punctual, polite, friendly, and extremely hard working. All work was done promptly and on schedule. If rain caused a delay, the crew worked weekends to catch up. In addition to the hard-scape, the project included installation of the lighting and watering system, amending and preparing the planting beds, and planting. Tobias is a fair priced, honest contractor who takes a tremendous amount of pride in his work. You can be sure that he will bend over backwards to make sure your landscape installation is perfect. I recommend Landscape by Tobias without reservation!!!
Description of Work: I can't say enough good things about this compajny
Tobias was one of several recommendations from our landscape designer. We chose him based on this recommendation and his very competitive pricing. "I couldn't be happier". We worked very well together. We followed the landscape plan fairly closely, but did make some changes that we both felt would enhance our backyard. He was extremely helpful with trading out several planting options. We discussed the pros and cons of plants, vines and trees; he even met me at a nursery so that I could hand pick our rose bushes. His knowledge of plants, etc. is quite impressive. Not only was he easy to work with, surprisingly enough so was his crew. Living in a turn-of-the-century home, we have had many renovations and projects completed over the years. I have n e v e r been so impressed. I don't often gush. The project took a bit longer than we expected but the result was nothing short of amazing. And...we were right on budget. I will continue to have him come back for a touch-up and maintenance as required. I know that at least one of my neighbors has also used him with glowing results also. I am happy to post this for him and his team.

The job was expertly done and in a timely fashion. Once they started, they were on the job every day all day to its conclusion. When there were problems ( e.g., the second palate of brick did not match the first), Tobias was very cool and was able to get a palate that was a better match. He was extremely easy to work with and always composed and smiling. His employees were equally good to work with and excellent craftsmen. They cleaned up everything meticulously and even washed and sealed the brick. We were extremely pleased.
Description of Work: They built a brick patio which transitions to a stepping stone and gravel section under an arbor (which they did not build). They set the stepping stones, edged the gravel section in brick and laid the gravel. Tobias also laid out the general design for the patio as well as the design for the placement of the brick.
