Update trying to call them and get in touch about them overcharging and being crooks but no one will call me back I called Lawrence he has been trying to he’lp me I went with this company because he said good things but the irrigation department doesn’t seem like they care as long as the money is in they’re pocket…
Our Red shovel lawn, paid for new sprinklers , grass dying except around the sprinklers...
T.J., Carson, and Gordon were efficient, fast, and very very good. I look forward to using them again! Elizabeth
I called Red Shovel Landscaping because they were recommended to me by another landscaping company who did not do yard clean up. The lady I spoke with on the phone (I'm sorry I did not get her name) was friendly and professional. She explained their services and fees clearly and concisely, and we set up a time for…
Daniel Santos came to our house, checked for sprinkler leaks and repaired a leaky valve. He was polite, professional and efficient. Thank you!
I don't think Red Shovel needs any more reviews to prove how amazing they are, but I wanted to emphasize how great they are to work with. I have had other contractors do similar work for me, but everyone I have interacted with from Red Shovel has been kind and professional. A special thanks to Gilbert Calderon for…
This morning Edvin fixed the drip irrigation system in my front yard. He is polite and an expert in irrigation repairs and maintenance. I highly recommend him and Red Shovel.
We had same day yard cleanup and some tree trimming done by David M., Alan, and Edward. They communicated well, worked fast, and left our landscaping ready for the spring growth spurt ahead. This is a great company.
Carson and George came to my home to fertilize the trees and plants in my yard. They worked quickly and efficiently and took care of my entire yard. I also had some questions which they answered. I am very pleased with the service I received and would recommend Red Shovel to anyone looking for quality yard maintenance.
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…
Just had Joseph C. and Antonio T. come by to spray for weeds. Very professional and fast!
Julian Valenwela and Josh Nelson planted a 15 gallon tree in my back yard and set up the emitters. Beautiful job, looks great! They were friendly and engaging, and worked until I was happy. * Additional review (4/12/24): Seth and Keegan came by and performed a thorough walkthrough/inspection of my irrigation…
The team [David, Marco and Yunior] did a very good spring clean up of our yard that needed it. They arrived on time, worked diligently and left the yard looking better than it has in several years
When my monthly water bill exceeded $100 I knew something serious was wrong! After Seth got to the irrigation system, he found the leak. Another visit fixed the leak with all new pipes and a very professional cleanup job as well. My water usage went from 12,000 gal/billing cycle to less than 7,000 gal. Everything about Red Shovel met my requirements.
David and Seth arrived promptly and were so helpful and knowledgeable. The job was done professionally and I was super impressed with these two gentleman. I highly recommend this company for any lawn irrigation issues.
Red shovel, and specifically Julian Valenzuela and Josh Nelson, not only delivered but went way beyond expectations. They were always on time, responsive, super professional, and were able to adapt and quickly make changes when we needed them to. They're the best! Thank you both!
each introduce self. Profession. explained to detail what services will be provided. Through explniation of areas of concern. fixed small areas on concern and why. Impressed by staff Seth, David, Josh. Great team
I had Victor, Andrew and Vincent out today to plant some Creosote bushes to wrap up a yard renovation. They were fantastic! They were very nice, quick, and tidy. After they finished the job they even rearranged/redistributed rocks around the front yard to cover the weed block fabric and even pulled a couple weeds. Great crew!
Josh and David came out to fix a sprinkler leak that was bigger than I had thought. They did a great job. Personable. Answered all of my questions. After the repair was complete I couldn't tell they had moved dirt and rocks to finish the job. Well done!
Josh, Seth, David and Graysen were fantastic. They arrived before the estimated time and repaired my drip system in a short amount of time. Awesome work guys. Thanks so much
Josh and Seth and David were very professional and also were very knowledgeable about the job we brought them in to perform. Several of our sprinkler heads needed replacing, and they did the job in no time at all. Great workers! Highly recommended.
Josh the crew leader along with Gray and David were amazing. Very knowledgeable and helpful. I would definitely recommend anybody to work with Red Shovel !
When you can get them out to do the work they do a great job, however, I have called and emailed them a number of times to get them to do some landscaping work and cannot get them to call me back.
Josh & David arrived on schedule, were very knowledgeable, thorough and very professional. They completely all work, checked the system and made recommendations for future improvements and considerations. They left the yard clean and we could not tell where they performed the work. Excellent Job.
Seth repaired and upgraded our irrigation system today. He was very professional, hard-working and very cheerful. A great experience! We will use Red Shovel Landscaping for many of our future landscaping projects.
Seth was on time and did an efficient and quality job in repairing a leak in my irrigation system and ensured it was working properly.
Today, Josh and David repaired a major leak in my drip system and also reviewed and restored the entire system to full working condition. Thanks guys.
Service was excellent. David made sure everything was completed, answered all our questions. Very polite and professional.
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…
Josh and Seth were awesome!!
Seth came out and repaired our drip irrigation system. He was very thorough and helped us get all the emitters working.
Josh and David very Professional.
We recently had problems with our sprinkler system. Josh came out & replaced the old irrigation control unit & got us back up & running. We recommend Red Shovel.
Took almost a month to get an appointment but I assume that's because of repeat customer business which I am OK with. I will be a repeat customer. Lorenzo came out quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem. He was even early for my appointment. Thank you Red Shovel and Lorenzo.
Awesome service. Would highly recommend.
Never been happier with a yard service! I had 8000 sqft of turf removed. The crew went above and beyond clearing, installing edging, planting new trees, moving huge boulders and installing new sprinklers. The end result was better than my vision of what it could be! Huge appreciation for the professionalism,…
Josh and Dave repaired a leak in our irrigation system: great guys, friendly, professional and helpful. Explained everything so I could understand what was being fixed and why. Just a good ending to an annoying leak.
Josh and Seth did a super job installing a new sprinkler system for our backyard. The job was completed a day earlier than expected. They were always polite and explained each step for us. Did a great job on the clean-up, too!
Josh and Seth were a great help with getting the sprinkler system up and running.
We were very pleased with the 2 men who came to fix our irrigation system. Josh and Seth are both pleasant and efficient in their service, articulate in their explanations, and cleaned up the area they had to dig up. They were fast and efficient which kept the cost more reasonable on their hourly rate. We will…
I want to give a shout out to Josh and Seth, I’ve worked with Josh in the past and have always been very satisfied with his work. Thanks again guys
Josh and Seth made all the repairs quickly, explained how to do some repairs on my own in the future and set up my timer. I’m happy and impressed with this company.
My sprinkler system would not turn on in the spring so I called Red Shovel. Josh and Seth quickly found the problem -- a stuck shutoff valve -- and were able to repair the valve, as well as fix some other issues. They did an amazing job! They explained everything that was needed before any work was done and…
The crew ,Graig,Lawrence,Aaron,Elk, so far has done a great job my project is about 75 percent done. They have been very professional and knowledgeable about the work.they have been always keeping me up date about the process on my project.
Been using Red Shovel for lawn care but needed a filter installed for my irrigation system. Josh and Seth came by with an estimate then quickly scheduled the work. On the day of the job they made a mistake and had to come back the next day to fix/repair. They came back and fixed the mistake and replaced old…
The crew (Josh, Seth, Hakeem, and Miguel) were on time, professional and fast. They explained everything well and the yard looks good now.
I use Red Shovel to take care of our lawn. We found a leak in our irrigation. They came out to fix it the same day I called! Our technician, John Roberts, did a fantastic job. I highly recommend this company!
Josh and Seth did an awesome job today repairing our sprinkler system, would highly recommend
Awesome service with John and Josh. Took care of my irrigation repair and found a minor leak that they were able to fix while at my home.
Had a great experience with Josh and Seth! We were having issues with our drip system and they came out the next day. They were courteous, punctual, efficient, and clearly explained the issues to us. Fixed everything in under an hour!
Josh and Seth did such a great job and were so responsive. I called with an urgent irrigation issue during the holidays. The person who answered, Carol, was so kind and professional. Josh and Seth offered to come early, explained everything, and are coming back to check on things later. I have some landscaping I'd…
Josh Lawless was outstanding!!! So nice and very informative. He explained everything to us and I feel so much better about our water situation. Thanks so so much, he's awesome!!
Update: Lorenzo arrived at 11:45. He is very personable and likable. He defiantly knows the business. He replaced the defective valve. It appears when the original technician replaced all of the valves they over tightened one of the valves in the backyard. I come to the conclusion that they didn't turn on the…
Oscar and Miguel changed out the one of the heads for our irrigation system. The old one was rusted and very difficult to unhook. They kept at it until it was done. Thank you for your service. Ted Heath
Seth and Josh, were friendly, extremely competent and knowledgeable, professional and had excellent communication. I will definitely recommend Red Shovel.

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.
