We have just recently had some work completed with King's Garden and Landscape, and we are very pleased with the results of the work. In addition to the work being very good, the crew that did our work was very attentive to our wants and needs, as well as arriving on time the days that they were scheduled.

Landscaping design and services are fairly good but not consistent with premium pricing charged. I’ve worked with two other high-end Houston landscaping services over last 25 years and felt King’s Garden constantly over charged throughout 5 month relationship. Maintenance fees (2x per month) for town home property of my size were quite excessive.

Response from the owner · 6 months ago
Thank you for your feedback, and for the five months you trusted us with your property. For context, our pricing was reviewed and agreed to before any work began, and the twice-monthly maintenance schedule was set at your own request after you shared how pleased you were with our early work. We're proud of what our team created there, and we're grateful for the kind words you shared with us along the way. We wish you all the best going forward. — The King's Garden Team

I had several particularly challenging irrigation issues that were resolved purely by this group's resolve to restore the system from literal ground level to Esteph taking the City to task as my professional advocate and succeeding! Additionally, the personnel speak English and go out of their way to accommodate their customer. I heartily recommend King's Garden as a technically superior, well oiled machine with the client's satisfaction as priority number one.
