Thank you, Red Shovel, for providing excellent service from start to finish. David M's crew (Leo, Joseph, Antonio, Hakeem, Sam M., & Ed) were all friendly and fabulous to work with. I had a list of groundskeeping tasks -- including the removal of cactus -- and they handled everything quickly, efficiently, and with…
Here is a quality company! David, Joseph + Leo arrived on time; specked out the work; went to work and finished early. Their expertise is appreciated. Their kindness, hard work & attitude is commendable. Great spirit & enthusiasm to the end. I recommend Red Shovel above others for this reason. At 87, this Vietnam…
Red Shovel did a great job, showed up on time, talked to me to find out what was needed, they took care of what we discussed, and they cleaned the whole front yard to prepare for a weed treatment. The crew did a great job, I thanked them for all their help, and will call them anytime I need help in the future! Thank…

They were amazing, Kevin and the crew were very pleasant and kind! They were amazing and I'm so happy with my decision. They definitely exceeded my expectations! I will be using them again in the future!! New service 4/7 We did the discount weed control program that was offered with the clean up service! The…
David M, Kevin and Hunter did an amazing job cleaning and cleaning up our large back yard. Incredible work ethic and very personable…all three! I would want those three back when I need another job done. Thank you for your excellent work!
Great service! Tony and his crew were great!
Tony called ahead and arrived ready to go. He’s familiar with my property, which makes everything seamless. He came in, completed the job efficiently, gave us clear watering instructions, and was on his way. Scheduling was easy, communication was solid, and they performed remarkably. Looking forward to greener grass this year.
David M, Leo , Edward and crew did a great job. I appreciate the hustle and extra manpower provided at the end to complete the job before a storm moved in. Bravo men… Bravo!
I am so pleased with Red Shovel for a fantastic pruning and fall cleanup for my property. David Martin and his crew, (Leo & Hunter I think) were excellent! David provided an estimate, which we approved, and they got to work immediately. They were all so professional, efficient and thorough; my husband and I were…
David M & crew did excellent work for the quoted price
David M & crew showed up at the house ready to work. They did a great job trimming my hedges, pruning shrubs, pulling weeds and various other yard clean up tasks in a very timely manner. All the guys seemed to be enjoying their job as they worked. Thank you
The Red Shovel crew of David, Edward, Leo, Marshall and Pierre did a great job in cleaning up my property in a timely and professional manner.
Red Shovel has done an amazing job for us. They xeriscaped our front yard in the fall and revitalized our backyard the following spring. The crew that did the backyard work (Craig, Nate, and Walter) did a better job than I would have done and in a fraction of the time. I think that they went the extra mile. They…
David M., Junior, and Marquez all did outstanding work and each of them deserve the $20.00 tip and a raise.
Phase 4 of our landscaping (all phases done beautifully by Red Shovel), went off without a hitch. Another wonderful crew, (this time Julian V. and James K.) proved to me once again that Red Shovel can’t be beat for ALL things having to do with one’s yard! Professional, timely, polite, knowledgeable, incredibly…
Caruth, Marlon, and John G are professional and hard-working. They did a very nice job on my yard.
Andrew and Victor did an amazing job. I had not kept up with maintenance of my yard. I was overwhelmed with anxiety when I tried to do it myself. I would recommend Red Shovel and Andrew and Victor. Thank you!
Needed some yard clean-up and tree trimming. Red Shovel came by the house and after I made my appointment Andrew and Victor called to let me know they were on the way, they went over what we needed and gave a very quick estimate. Very professional and asked questions to ensure the work was correct. Both did a great job and I would call them again.
Javy Y. and Luis C. did an accurate, mindful and responsive first time cleanup on our yard. So glad Red Shovel is in Albuquerque!
Andrew and Victor arrived timely and were very professional. They asked clarifying questions to make sure the job was completed thoroughly. They were very friendly and finished everything we had asked them to do. Thank you.
Caruth, Marlon, L. Lopez, Anferno, Gordon and Elk are the crew of crews! Our place has never looked So Good! All were pleasant, professional and hard working! Red Shovel is my new Go-To service for lawn maintenance and landscaping! We’re so happy we found them.
The three gentlemen were on time, very professional and did all the work we discussed. Their work was great. They trimmed my big tree and hopefully saved it as it was struggling. The also cleaned up my front yard, it looks so good. The names of these three were Caruth, Marlon, and Canlan. Previous to today's…
Red Shovel redeemed our experience with landscapers! We have been super burned in the past but from the moment I called, it was a great expereince. They scheduled me extremely quickly, were prompt, completed the job efficiently, and spent quality time doing it. Not rushed and not wasteful. Andrew and his crew…
Jose and Raul are the two Red Shovel Landscape associates we have on a regular basis. Other members of the team come for other specific jobs, spraying etc. Jose and Raul are two of the hardest and most conscientious workers we have ever seen. Our lawn has improved greatly as well as the general grounds and bushes.…
Red Shovel was recommended to me by a friend who uses them annually for yard maintenance. I've had some bad experiences ith other smaller companies in town before not doing thorough work and charging a ton, so I wanted a recommendation. I had Anfernie, Gordon and Elk over to my property for a couple of days. WOW!…
My experience with Red Shovel has been excellent!: My schedulers, Larry and Jordan provided both information and courteous service in that my crew was even early on the day of my service! Each member of my Crew, Silas, Matt, and Marlin provided both timely and excellent care of my property and special attention…
Just moved into a new home that has been growing a bit wild for a few months, and I called Red Shovel to come mow, weed, trim and get rid of debris. They were able to squeeze me in same day, and a team of four guys came out and did a bang up job! Thank you Silas, Hakeem, Marlin, and David Martin! The yard looks so much better now!
We used Red Shovel to come put and clean up leaves, weeds, etc that had collected. Carson, Cam and Latto did a great job. They were on time every day, always kept us up to date on what they were doing and were very professional. We will use them again in the future.
Josh and Scott did a professional, thorough and exacting job of yard cleanup for my mother this spring. She needed some extensive weeding, shrub trimming and general cleanup. She herself is very detail-oriented and observant, and she loved their service. She is now using Red Shovel on a regular basis.
We hired Red Shovel to eliminate the weeds and perform maintenance on the lawn. After more than a year the lawn looks horrible and the weeds are worse than before. Save your money, this company is a joke! Update- Someone from the company called me and started harassing me about the negative review. Wow! Definite red…
Hakeem, Elk, and David did great in Spring Cleaning our large property. They arrived on time, were very pleasant to speak with, and their work was excellent. Hakeem checked with us regularly to ensure they were doing what we wanted and they were. I thought we would never be able to get our flower islands free of…

I was very pleased with the professionalism, quality of work, and responsiveness of Red Shovel. David, Cam and Matt really took pride in their work and made my yard look terrific.
We just had this company come do a winter yard cleanup and I was very impressed. They were on time, communicated well about the price, and had a big crew to carry out the job in a timely manner. They left our yard looking great! Hakeem, Miguel, Silas Matt, & David were all professional and hardworking. Would recommend to anyone.
Ivan Rodriguez, Camlan Chavez, and Jesus Rascon were very efficient and professional in getting my front and back yard cleaned up. They performed all work to our specifications and were very thorough in cleaning up afterwards. I very much appreciate their service and will definitely be using this company and team again!
Hakeem, Cam, Elk, and Ivan were professional, efficient, and courteous through every step of the yard clean up process.

Hakeem communicated well and the whole crew showed up and worked quickly to clean my yard of weeds and junk. Great job Miguel, Tee and Diego! Thank you.
They were amazing. I hardly recognize my front/backyard anymore. I don't think its been this clear since the house was built. Would definitely call them again. Our team was: Hakeem, Miguel, Ivan, and Anfernie.
Angel, Anfernie and Carson exceeded my expectations. They are a great team, efficient and knowledgeable on plants.
We had a truly overgrown and messy yard and Andrew, Angel, and Camlan did a very nice job of cleaning it up. We are appreciative
I am a guardian for a homebound older lady whose yard was badly neglected. I arranged for Red Shovel to do a yard cleanup. Hakeem and Miguel were prompt and professional. Hakeem called me when he was 15 minutes out, so I knew exactly when to expect him for our 8:00/9:00 a.m. appointment. Hakeem and Miguel did an…
I have been using Red Shovel to maintain my landscaping since I first moved into my home 5 years ago, and they have provided excellent service over the years. Javier and Luis show up faithfully every 2 weeks for my yard and landscaping maintenance. LaMarcus takes care of the shrubs and trees four times a year and…
Hakeem, Miguel, and Carson came over to my place in very short time after my initial call. They were enthusiastic, informative and knowledgeable about problems I was having around the house and trees. I'd be glad to have them back anytime.
Hakeem, Miguel, and Antonio performed an excellent job at my house, cleaning up a front yard that I'd left to get overgrown. They were honest about the work required for specific tasks and Hakeem was happy to work with me to help fit tasks into the budget I had in mind. Will definitely be calling them again.
