New Earth Landscaping

Pablo was great to work with. Very patient and flexible. We’ll be calling him again when we need lawn help.

We really like Pablo and his team!
After speaking with several gardeners/​landscapers we chose Pablo to landscape our front yard and clean up our backyard.
Pablo and his crew removed old wood terracing and replaced with stone, built two vegetable boxes into a sloped yard, planted many different plants and installed a drip irrigation system.
We were getting married in a month and had a strict deadline to complete the job. Pablo finished in record time, even earlier than promised and the whole process was stress free and enjoyable. We would definitely recommend him for any job.
Pablo is very friendly and easy to work with. He is very knowledgeable and honest and will tell you if he’s not sure instead of making something up on the spot. He came by multiple times before we even agreed to start work, just to talk us through the project and offer advice. We weren’t really sure what we wanted and spoke with him for a long time before going with his suggestions. And we are glad we did!
He takes great pride in his work and customer care was excellent. He would be the first person we call for any future gardening projects. Thanks Pablo!

These guys are quick, reliable, communicative, and, wait for it… they finish the job 100%. Pablo and crew also stand by their work 100%. It’s been an experience that I haven’t had with any other Contractor.3 fences, a deck, landscaping, painting, stove hood vent through the roof; that’s what they’ve done for me so far, New earth Landscaping does it all.

Outstanding experience with New Earth Landscaping. Pablo and his crew are hardworking and polite. They built new fences for my front yard that are absolutely beautiful as well as sturdy. Start to finish, every aspect of the project was managed by Pablo with good communication, talking with me in person or via text or phone. I always knew where I stood with the timing and completion of the job. When I had one small glitch with the new gate, the repair was handled immediately. Love the craftsmanship and courteous, efficient service.

Pablo and his crew did an excellent job renovating our front yard at a reasonable price. We had weeds removed and controlled growth-​area boxes created. We now have a nicely organized zones protecting that which we want preserved and preventing that which we don’t. The yard is both stylish and low-​maintenance.
Pablo is a good communicator who takes great pride in his work, though he always listens to what the client wants. He is flexible in working out compromise agreements and turning client ideas into a workable reality.

I have used New Earth Landscaping for several large projects to redo my backyard. They removed a huge patch of Juniper bushes, built retaining walls, a redwood fence, and a flagstone patio. They all look great! I started out with one project and liked their service so much I decided to hire them for all my backyard projects. The owner, Octaviano Pablo is easy to work with and knows how to do everything. His crew shows up on time, works late and goes the extra mile to make the customer happy. All four projects were completed quickly and the price was either exactly as estimated or very close to it. I highly New Earth for any project in your yard.

Pablo did a great job removing a huge Chinese elm that had been tangled up in the power lines. He also removed smaller trees in our backyard and did some carpentry on hour hose where he fixed the door to our crawl space and added a nice trim. He and his crew are very professional, helpful and I was glad they were available.

Pablo’s brother is a good gardener. I would like to give a good review because the work that’s been done has been good. However, the communication and billing are very suspect and frustrating. Whenever we call to try and get a schedule Pablo doesn’t know who we are, even thought we’ve met and spoke several times. We ask for a bill for our twice a month service and nothing comes. Then suddenly today we get a bill for nearing $ 600 with made up dates of service on the invoice. I want to assume they are just going through a rough spot and wish them well but we won’t use their services again.

Pablo came through! I called him to discuss removing the weeds from my small backyard and laying down some new bark. He 1. answered the phone when I called 2. made and kept an appointment to give me an estimate after work the same day 3. arrived at my home the next afternoon with his crew and completed the job in under five hours 4. cleaned up, leaving no evidence of his presence other than a yard I can now enjoy 5. charged a reasonable price. Should I need further work done, I will not hesitate to give Pablo a call.

Pablo and his crew tackled the front yard of our house which hadn’t been touched in 10 years until we moved in. The ripped out everything (including a giant stump), replaced all of the dirt, and redesigned the area. Pablo did an excellent job of communicating his vision for what he wanted the front yard to look like and executed it within a couple of days.
I called him after a few of the plants started look not so healthy. He came over within a day and solved the problem (a few vine bushes that were having trouble attaching to a wall). Everything is back to looking great.

BEWARE! I am changing my review from 5 stars to 1 star sadly. Pablo left a message that he «lost» the $ 200 check I wrote him almost two weeks ago and asked for another check. When I checked my bank account, the check had already been cashed. When I mentioned this to Pablo, he said that he was sorry that he had made a mistake. He did cash that check but had lost the another check from that same day and called me by accident. The work that Pablo and his brother did on my yard was great, but now I will never trust him. I found him to be completely unprofessional and suspicious in the end. :(

This review is specifically in reference to the major clean-​up Pablo did on my yard. I’ve been living in Alameda for almost a year, in a charming house with a small patio. I have no interest in yard work, but want a presentable space for entertaining. So, in a very roundabout manner, I discovered Pablo.
We made an appt for a free estimate, and Pablo came to assess the situation. His rate was very reasonable, and the results, which I’ve posted, are fantastic. As a consequence, I’ve arranged for monthly maintenance. Pablo also offers twice monthly maintenance, which I may opt for if things grow out of control.
I can be more detailed once I begin the regular maintenance.

We had Pablo and his team remove 6 huge Agave cactuses just before Christmas. It was a big job that several landscapers wouldn’t even give a full estimate on. Pablo came in, was full of experience, and ready to start at a moments notice. His bid was very reasonable and 100% accurate at the time of completion. He and his team really left the place looking great, replacing rock ground cover and everything. We will definitely use him for our next project!

I would highly recommend Pablo’s Landscaping! Pablo did such a great job with taking care of my landscaping! My back yard was such a mess after much neglect while going through a divorce. Pablo and his team came in and made it look gorgeous again! He was dependable, professional, and paid close attention to the small things. So glad I was able to find to him to keep it looking great and even sprucing it up in the spring! Thanks Pablo!!!

We haven’t had the best luck with gardeners in the past, mostly because they are flakey and they never show when they said they would, even after confirming the appointment. Pablo, however, was a different story. He’s AWESOME and here’s why:
— he’s friendly and so easy to work with.
— he’s punctual. And when he’s late, he will call to let you know how late.
— he works hard and he did a gorgeous job with our back yard.
— his fees are reasonable and does not overcharge.
— he’s easy to communicate with and will work with you to beautify your yard. My husband and I don’t have a lot of knowledge when it comes to plant names or planting. Pablo will offers suggestions to improve our initial ideas.
We are looking to have him come on a regular basis to maintain our yard. He ROCKS and we are pleased with the results of his work.

Pablo had been our landscaper for nearly a year now. He is hard-​working, energetic, and a great problem-​solver. When we asked him to help us with a complicated drainage problem, he jumped right in and really went above and beyond to find a solution for us.
He is also flexible, dependable, and takes pride in doing his job extremely well and providing the best service for his clients.
Seriously, we scored big in finding Pablo!

Pablo and his brother did a great job on our backyard. They were mindful of our pet dog and our chickens, and cleaned up every day after they finished. The project took a week and they finished on-​time and within budget. Who could ask for more? My backyard is now a place for us to enjoy instead of feel embarassed about when guests come over.
Pablo’s value does not stop at his amazing work and reasonable prices. Pablo was instrumental in the design of our yard. He offered suggestions to improve on my initial ideas, including more appropriate plants and better placement. He was also very good with the plumbing, as our backyard is very poorly appointed when it comes to water. I can’t wait to see how the beautiful trees that Pablo suggested for our yard turn out, and watering the over 50 new plants and the new lawn is a breeze.
Pablo also took extreme care with the cost. When an estimated cost turned out to be more OR less than we initially planned, he let me know immediately before incurring the altered cost so that I was aware of everything.
Althought Pablo won’t give you a nicely printed and computer-​generated printout of the itemized estimate, he does write everything down in his notebook and walk through the costs with you. I am very pleased with his work, his professionalism, and his value.

I have been using Pablo for almost 6 months now and couldn’t be happier with the service he’s provided. He’s punctual, very hard working and a great value as well. Communicating with his is really easy, I can call him or text him if something needs to be done. He’s great with my dog and always smiling. Right now he does the basics around here, pruning, mowing, blowing, and general upkeep, but he’s also done some bigger projects like spraying my fruit trees, and some tree removal.
For the value and the quality of service I would highly recommend him.

Great guy, great work. Now I have a clean yard… Thanks from Nancy

Seriously, we’ve been through quite a few gardeners, many whom were unreliable and mediocre at best. Pablo’s Landscaping has been working on our condo’s courtyard and our personal backyard for over almost 2 years now (he’s finally on Unilocal now!) and we couldn’t be happier. The team is so friendly and honest and easy to direct. They are always going above and beyond and the price cannot be beat.
I’ll try and upload a photo of our yard. I wish I had a before shot to show you all of the great work they’ve done!
Yay for greatness!
