Nick and his team did an awesome job with the front and back yard at our house! We wanted some old plants out and new ones planted the process was easy, Nick helped me find some good plants for the weather in Cali and took what I wanted as well! It's super affordable too, and the back yard looks amazing! He also helped with our irrigation system, and trimmed a bunch of the trees that were growing too much! Thanks guys!!

Nick was highly professional and responded immediately by coming to the campus and providing me with a written estimate for the job at hand. Once we had decided to go with his company, he set a date and arrived on time. His team came prepared with the equipment needed and did a thorough job. Before leaving the job site they confirmed that we were satisfied with the job they had done. They cleared a large portion of our property of weeds and dead bushes and left the surrounding area swept and looking great. We are very happy with the finished product and will use NG Landscaping again.

We were apprehensive about ever having a landscaping service as our property is a bit large and at times overgrown etc. We decided to give it a shot and NG has been excellent. They came and completely cleared, cleaned, trimmed everything including some of the bonus areas we discussed at the beginning of the day. We have had them doing regular routine visits now every two weeks and they consistently do great work. Highly recommend :)
