Marshal, David, Leo, Joseph and Sab did such a remarkable job in both the front and backyard. I have a large property that after the rains had become full of weeds, trees and shrubs were overgrown and I was overwhelmed with even the thought of mowing with such a mess. They cleaned it up so beautiful, I will…
Red Shovel and my team (David M., Leo, and Joseph) have provided the best yard cleanup I have ever received in NM. I will continue to request this team and utilize Red Shovel services.
Marshal, David, Hakem and crew did a great job, super thorough and efficient!
We had a yard cleanup of our property (clean up and shrub trimming, lawn mowing etc.). The crew consisted of David M, Leo, and Joseph. They were friendly, polite, on-time, and knowledgeable. It is the first time working with Red Shovel and they were very open and upfront about the process and scheduling. The pricing…
Gilbert Calderon came out and gave us an estimate for the work we want. He was on time, polite, professional, and very thorough. Marshall Sebay and his crew did a yard clean up and we are very impressed with their work. Everything looks so much better and it is such a relief to have people who know what they're doing.
Had Red Shovel clean our front yard area prior to having them, in a few eeks, redesign and construct our new landscaping. The team you sent (David M.,Leo, and Edward) did a great job on a yard that hadnt been maintained in years. They showed up EARLY, and did a great job! Wont even consider any other landscape firm in the future
The crew did everything we requested to improve the appearance of our yard. It was nice to have it cleaned up. Joseph Chavez and Rigoberto Soriano were friendly, polite and did a great job.
Update 8/20/25: Had David M. and his crew come out for our 3rd visit. As usual, they were on time and the yard looks stunning. They pulled all weeds, took out some elm trees, trimmed my pyracantha and various other shrubs and bushes, and cleaned up my lawns. My nearby neighbors have already come by asking who did…
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…
Andrew S. and Rigoberto F. are excellent at maintaining my yard. I am very pleased with this company. Update: Joseph C and Keegan T communicated well and arrived timely. Very happy with the service.
Wow, Rigoberto and Erick did a fantastic job trimming my treas and spruces up the yard. They really know what there doing.
Javy Y. and Luis C. did an accurate, mindful and responsive first time cleanup on our yard. So glad Red Shovel is in Albuquerque!
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.…
Marlon and Camlan were fantastic. Super friendly with high quality work done quickly and precisely. Would use them again. Thanks guys!
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.
David and Camlan cleaned my front yard. It had 2 dead and falling trees, lots of weeds and it was a big job. They were both very professional, and I appreciate what they did. Lesley
My first experience was not great, but Larry Aragon made it right. Hakeem, Miguel and Cam did a super job caring for clean up, pruning and yard work. Very friendly and informative, as well as extremely professional! I will definitely use them in the future.
Josh and Seth are very professional and provided me great, timely service at a reasonable cost. They made sure I understood my Irrigation system issues and provided me with options for repairs. I highly recommend! I have also begun lawncare maintenance services and am so impressed with the care and attention Javier…
Craig, Mike, Steven, and Lawrence did a great job with my yard clean up before getting the yard sprayed for weed control. They arrived on time, were professional, and got right to work.
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.
