### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Colette G., Aug. 2020**

> I found Randy @ Aplus Landscapes to be honest and reliable. His crew was professional and didn't leave any mess. He replaced my wooden patio /deck which had termite/water damage with concrete.  He let me know every day how the progress was going. It took 3 days to complete. Quote was with in industry standards. I would use him again.
> Colette G.

**★★★★★ — HU-12196159, July 2020**

> We did a backyard renovation by removing the old hardscape, removing a small pond, and replacing part of our fence.  The hardscape was replaced with concrete with a flagstone border.  The workmanship finishing the the concrete and laying the flagstone was excellent.  We also moved and added a sitting wall that was capped with the flagstone.  Randy helped us pick out the stone and was easy to work with, helping us resolve construction issues that came up in an innovative manner.

**★★★★★ — Samantha Samuels, July 2020**

> Randy and his team transformed our backyard with a clean, modern stucco wall that perfectly matches the midcentury design of our home. His bid was by far the most competitive of the contractors we consulted with. His team's work was meticulous and timely. They completed our project during the beginning of the pandemic and worked safely, maintaining social distance throughout. We'd hire Randy and A+ Landscapes again in a heartbeat.

**★★★★★ — Brady Bishop, July 2020**

> I hired Randy to install approximately 250 square feet of flagstone from the sideway to our front door.  The A+ Landscapes crew was professional and hard working. Randy is communicative and reliable. My wife and I really appreciated the cleanliness of his crew.  At the end of everyday, the project area was left organized and clean. We definitely recommend A+ Landscapes and would hire Randy's team again.

**★★★★★ — John Sedigh, Jan. 2020**

> Randy and his team did a fantastic job with our backyard project. He's a pro in every sense of the word - timely, honest, experienced and capable. Our scope of work was a 75 foot long retaining wall and a new patio. The pavers look great, the work was done on time and the crew was very respectful.

**★★★★ — Jenn Govind, Aug. 2019**

> I chose A+ landscaping to install a paver patio and front walkway from a list of 5 paver and landscaping companies.  Randy and his team received my business due to Randy's willingness to listen, collaborate and propose options that met my design requests and my budget.  Randy is responsive and his team arrived on time, completed clean-up when done the result is a professional and beautiful job.  Randy personally did a final walk through to ensure completeness of the work before closing the contract.  The family and I love our new patio and walkway and will continue to hire A+ Landscaping for our future needs.

**★★★★★ — JS R, July 2019**

> A+ Landscapes just finished remodeling our small patio area. We now have new stamped concrete and a block wall. They were professional and we are very happy with the end result. We are looking forward to using our new patio this summer! We recommend A+ Landscapes for budget friendly remodeling. They will not disappoint!

**★★★★★ — Wendy Kerr, Jan. 2019**

> I highly recommend A+ Landscaping.  A+ Landscaping was the only landscaping company that would take on the repair of my railroad tie retaining wall.  Mr. Hernandez and his crew did an excellent job.  They were here on time, did an excellent job repairing the wall, and left the yard neat and clean.  A+ Landscaping  is the company I will call when I need landscaping work done.  Thank you for making my view from the kitchen window pleasant again.

**Comment from A+ Landscapes:**

> Mrs. Kerr was a pleasure to work with. When I first saw the job,  I knew we had the right experienced crew to repair the railroad tie retaining wall who would be clean and finish on time.

**★★★★★ — Robyn Miller, Sept. 2018**

> Randy came, studied our space, was a good listener, provided ideas that made me excited to work with him, because I knew he cared about our home. Randy and his crew put in pavers, landscaped a hill and installed a drip system. Randy's crew were always professional and respectful and were proficient at their craft. The results were beyond my expectations and I would love to work with Randy again on another project.

**★★★★★ — Karen Vanderwerken, Sept. 2018**

> Randy and his team really know what they are doing!   Very efficient; did a beautiful job!   Getting lots of compliments on this paver walkway

**★★★★★ — Susan Eselin, July 2015**

> I hired Randy and his crew to install a new fence. They did a fantastic job on the install and I've gotten many compliments from our neighbors. Randy was very accommodating answering all of my questions before and during the install. I would highly recommend them and they will be on the top of my list for any future landscaping work.

**★★★★★ — JoAnn Twenge, June 2015**

> A+ Landscapes recently removed the turf from our front yard, widened the concrete driveway, built a new small concrete front pation, and created a rockscape with vegetation areas .  Vegetation areas were planted with native shrubs, succulents, grasses and drought tolerant palm trees.  The remainder includes rocks, with a rock riverbed and stepping stones for use on one side. Irrigation was converted to drip.The yard looks terrific, and even better than we expected. We now have a beautiful, drought tolerant yard to enjoy.  Their price was reasonable and they finished in a timely manner.  Thanks, Randy and crew!
