The crew did a great job. They sprayed the weeds one day, then they came back another day and pulled the remaining weeds out of the garden. They communicated well and worked hard. They were extremely friendly and knowledgeable too. If it was easier to schedule I would have them take over much of the work in my large yard, but it took a while and a few calls to get a response from the company the first time. The next time I called for a different service, I did not got a call back.

We were beginning to have some serious issues with the Sedgroot. They were able to rid us of the Sedgroot and after the fertilizing, our lawn is now a deep, healthy green. It looks great! I would highly recommend.

They are dependable polite and all speak perfect english. They use organic products which I am interested in because I have a dog and Grandchild that I do not want playing around insecticides.
As all landscape companies, one has to stay on top of things because with so many clients they can forget your personal preferences.
I had been ignored on a few things for a while, and until I pushed, did not get results. Now I am awaiting a plan for a new project.
This is a reputable company that is reliable, albiet a bit pricey. But I'd rather have pricey with a good product and environmentally conscious than not.

For the most part I was happy with their service. It was obvious that the crews were in a hurry every visit but I was also happy with the price. I figured that the service was adequate for the price I was paying. Their billing to my credit card was no problem and Karen Hoffman was responsive to my emails. In Nov of 2014 I inquired about reducing frequency of service and also requested that they trim back some invasive bamboo shoots coming in from the neighbors yard. A man named Jason Jones inadvertently responded to me rather than Karen with the following e-mail which I found very disrespectful. While I understand the e-mail wasn't intended for me, I also was not happy with Mr. Jones' attitude. As such I terminated service with them and would caution my neighbors before doing business with Green Earth Landscaping of Austin TX.

Response from Green Earth Landscapes
"[removed members name], I responded with the following email. I under stand your upset ( even tho this was not directed personally at you, it was in reference to your account) but at least share both sides of the story if you feel the need to leave a negative review. Sharing just your side of the story makes you seem less credible. [removed members name], You are correct the email was not intended for you, it was intended for [removed members name]. Your account is one that is not profitable ( pretty much break even) but it's close to others so we have kept it in the route. It was nothing personal directed at you at all, more so to the account. We have been job costing all accounts since the year is almost over and evaluating each one. We will be weeding out accounts that do not fit into our business plan. I apologize the email was sent to you and you felt I directed it personally at you, those were not my intentions of course. I will get a final invoice from Karen and bill the card on file and get you a receipt and we will shred your card info. One again I apologize for the communication mis hap. We do value our customers, and I'm sorry you feel that I have disrespected you. Jason Jones Green Earth Landscapes and Construction 512-217-9534 www.greenearthlandscapingaustin.com"

Jason and his crew do a terrific job. The new bed he put in looked terrific last year and this year it looks as though everything is coming back after the winter. The lawn service is great - they handle much more than mowing and take care of the shrubs, the insects, and the fertilizing. They even analyze and adjust the sprinkler system to make sure it's efficient. I've been very pleased with their work and will continue to employ them.

Jason impressed me when he came to give his bid - he measured, gave great ideas, kept my budget tight, and followed up on every little question and request I had. After hired, he and his crew worked hard and continued to impress. I'm very happy with the work, materials and price. I highly recommend these guys!!!

Nicely. They arrived as scheduled, did the work promptly and professionally.

I had a wonderful experience using Jason. He was very responsive, super professional and completed all the work and then some. We just LOVE our yard. When he first came out to talk about what to do, I had my own ideas, but I liked how he suggested better ways to do things. During the process I added on some tasks and quickly adjusted the schedule to accommodate me. For example, our irrigation system was so old and outdated and hard to use. He went and purchased a new system, installed it and didn't charge me an arm and a leg. I also really love the drip system that was installed for our plants. Such a smart and efficient way of watering! I wouldn't have thought of that! Another task I added on was cleaning up the area around my husband's shed. I'm so glad I took his suggestion with the materials to use. The yard wouldn't have looked as good if I didn't do something with the shed area. I will be hiring Jason again to do future projects. Also, it is VERY hard to impress my husband and he was so surprised. The best part, my husband and kids were out of town when the work was being done and Jason finished the job right before they came home to surprise them! It was awesome! Thanks again and I look forward to future projects!

Jason contacted me promptly after I sent him an e-mail requesting an estimate. He came at the date and time promised and sent me a written proposal in a couple of days. He explained that he had many jobs already scheduled so it would be a while before he could do the job for me. On the job date Jason and his crew did the job in a few hours and left the entire area clean when done, not even any rocks or dirt piles left on the other yard areas. Jason was nice enough to give me some lessons on some pest grass and also identified some plants for me. I was very impressed by him and his crew. Yes, I will use him in the future if I have any landscaping needs.

I'm using their services currently. Jason was the only provider out of three that I contacted who actually showed up when he said he would. The guys do great work. The yard is a work in progress, hadn't been really cared for by previous owners, but I'm seeing results already. Highly recommended.

Jason and his team started this work AHEAD of schedule and completed the project in short order. After using a large company for years and having a less than attractive yard I'm very pleased with our progress and appreciate the individualized attention. The lawn is green and lovely, weeds are under control. The're doing a great job. I'm looking forward to a long relationship and a lovely yard this year.

.Dealing with Jason and Al was the most positive experience I have had with a contractor. I think the standout attribute of Green Earth Landscaping is "integrity". They are detail oriented and take the time to explain and discuss options - they make you a partner in the cost v. benefit discussion and do respect and manage to a budget. The other part of the "integrity" equation is that they do not take shortcuts - planting beds are properly prepared so that longer term results will follow and of course they were prompt and professional in getting all the work done.I will be using them for weekly yard maintenance going forward and I feel the partnership is off to a fantastic start.

We quickly agreed on a time and they came when they said they would. They worked steadily until the job was finished and cleaned up afterwards leaving a very neat looking planting area. The price was a bit more than I expected but probably fair. If I had to do all they did, it would probably still not be finished.

It went very well. Jason and Al are professional, knowledgable and get the job done. Also, they're just extremely nice guys. We are going to use them again for anything that comes up and for lawn maintanance.

It was a pleasure doing business with Jason and Al of Green Earth Landscapes. I received an estimate of possible yard and property services that they could provide. Because I required extensive weed eating on relatively rough terrain, we were able to adjust services so that my needs were met within the original estimate. I was also promised that the work would be done on the day I requested.
On that Friday, Al arrived and proceeded to get the job done. He was no slacker and worked tirelessly until he finished the job. He is also very knowlegeable about native plants and landscaping. He even did some extra chores that I did not request.
I definitely recommend this business and will call them again.

The work that was completed was done to a reasonable degree of quality.
However, I had to revise my rating to reflect the lack of professionalism, directed solely at Jason Jones. Jason never completed all the work that he was paid to do in the previous months. After asking him repeatedly to finish the work, he became almost entirely unresponsive. Due to this, I am forced to bring in someone else to finish the work he didn't complete.
Unfortunately, I cannot, in good conscience, recommend Jason Jones for any work to be performed because of what happened. If you decide to use him, I recommend that you do not pay him until the work is complete.
Update 7/28/13 - The response received by Mr. Jones was entirely without merit, almost to the point of being ridiculous. It really astonishes me how some of these contractors conduct themselves. Texas really needs to consider making these contractors get licensed for their work (like most other states) so it holds them accountable. This contractor in particular, told me he "was tired of holding my hand" because I kept asking him to finish the work. This is what you have to go through with this guy when you do him a favor and pay in advance.
Mr. Jones does not deserve your business. I recommend you look elsewhere

Response from Green Earth Landscapes
"[Member name removed], It seems that you have a problem with some of the work that has been completed at your home. I have finished everything that you have paid for except for the lock on the gate, which could not be completed at the time with everything else due to code issues around your new pool. I also agreed to install some customer supplied landscape lighting at no cost to you if you picked up the material, pretty generous of me for your troubles. This past weekend we installed 10k worth of windows in your home, which I went with you and did a consult and even went with you to order them. I did not charge you a penny to measure which most companies do nor did I charge you for the 4 hours of my time while we were ordering windows from your supplier. There was some miscommunication in exactly what was covered in your window install. For instance your house is settling to the point that once the windows were installed nice and level and plumb, some of the trim looked crooked.There is no way for us to know exactly what your hose is doing as the previous windows settled with the house. All of the extra work we did to fix those problems we did at no cost to you, even though it was way out of the basic window install realm. While we were finishing up at your house before you left to go eat dinner you had asked me twice when I would be back to finish the rest of your project ( the gate lock, the free landscape light install, and adding drip irrigation around the palms( which I know you were going to try and get for free once again...)) You stated you needed them done by June 9th because you had some guests arriving, I told you twice to your face that they would be done by then and more than likely we would be out next week (week of may 27th) I told you all of this information on may 18th, and here it is may 23rd and you amend a once nice review to reflect I have in some way stolen from you. John I think you need to re-group and look at all of the previous work we have done for you with absolutely no issues. All of the little freebies along the way as well. You should also think of all of the contractors that have actually taken your money, I believe people still owe you money. Think about the hassle with the pool builder that just up and left for weeks on end, and you want to compare me to those guys. That's a shame [member name removed], its very unfortunate you feel the way you do. I have not taken anything from you, you have failed to let me finish my work by the agreed upon date, Which we have tried scheduling multiple times but we will not get into that... I have never taken anything from anybody, I was raised better than that unlike some people. I am the first to pay out and the last to get paid."

I spoke with Jason briefly and he promised to call back within the hour to get more details. He called when he said he would and seemed enthusiastic about even our small job. He came out to give me an estimate the same day, perfectly punctual. When I mentioned we were trying to have the i done as soon as possible Jason offered to have Al do the work the following day. Al came on time, worked efficiently, raked everything smooth, and even swept our front porch!
Both Jason and Al were professional and friendly. They communicated clearly and did exactly what they said they would - from arriving on time to performing the work itself. The price was fair and they were able to save us some money by fitting our work in between larger jobs using the same equipment. The entire experience was great and absolutely stress-free.
We will definitely call Green Earth Landscapes for the yard jobs that are too big for us to tackle on our own.

Jason and Al of Green Earth Landscaping are just exceptional. Two of the nicest people I have ever met. Responsive, friendly, even tempered, cheerful -- generally the kind of people you would enjoy hanging around! They always do more than I expect or ask. They leave the work area cleaner than when they found it. The work is done exactly like I would want it done. The work that Jason and Al do is first class. They cut no corners and use only the very best materials. In 2011, they built a long and complicated cedar fence. It was on a slope, but it looks perfect. Even and level all the way down. The builder of my house was so impressed that he has now hired Jason to do work for him personally and for his company. That tells me a lot about the quality of the work. Al does my yard and he is such a joy to be around. I think that my wife may like Al more than me! He always does more around the property than we have asked him to do and charges us nothing more. He even offers ideas on plants and landscaping and we find Al to be very knowledgable and experienced. It is just the way Green Earth does business. They have trimmed trees, cleaned up my natural areas, built a beautiful natural rock path, and, of course, built two separate fences. Rarely have I used a contractor who on a personal and professional level would rate a 10 on a 1 to 10 scale! These guys are the very best you will find!
