Francisco Javier Rodriguez

Francisco and his crew did an awesome job in our backyard. He came and did a quote within a day and was back 2 days later for the job. He was quick and clean. Our yard looks great. He was super easy to work with. I would height recommend for any clean up or landscaping job.

I can’t believe this guys has 5 stars. He seriously lacks communication skills. I called him last week and was VERY clear that I needed the job done and completed today — Monday. He assured me he could get it done. He shows up this morning 40 minutes late (after I texted and asked if he was still coming). When he arrives, he calls me on my cell phone. I answered and he asks, «where are you?» RUDE! Ummmm… I’m inside waiting for you to show up, mister. Ring the doorbell and I’ll answer. Isn’t that what most normal people do? So I show him all the stuff that needs to be done. He gives me an outrageous estimate and tells me he can come back later in the week. WHAT??? I told him I didn’t know what he was talking about because when we spoke on the phone I told him that I needed the job finished on Monday and that he had assured me he could get it done. I asked him if he remembered this conversation. He looked at me like a kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar because he could tell how mad I was. Busted! I told him to forget it. He mumbled, «I’m sorry,» and left. What a waste of time. Don’t hire this guy.

Francisco did a terrific job! He is extremely polite and friendly; he knows exactly what work needs to get done, and he does it efficiently and at a very reasonable price. He did such a good job that I probably won’t need to call him for a few years! In the meantime, I will recommend him to all who need anything pruned, from a tree to a whole yard.

Francisco and his team are fast, efficient and easy to work with. I called him spur of the moment/​last minute to ask him to pull the overgrown weeds from our yard and trim a few things back. Not only did he come out the same day to do a bid but he was back first thing the next morning to do the work and I’m very pleased with the results. I would definitely use his services again!

I decided to hire Francisco based on the reviews here, and I am so glad that I did. He and his crew were very professional and fast. He provided me samples of mulch and picked up a tree and bushes from a nursery for me.
They cleared my backyard of decades of neglect and transformed it into a soothing, relaxing space.
I highly recommend his services.

Francisco and his crew did a wonderful job on my small backyard. He came and gave me the estimate the next day that I called and was on time and arrived a few days later. The price was very reasonable and the job took 2 hours to cut a whole yard of junipers, including cutting the branches and digging out the roots. The only access to the yard was through the house and they meticulously hauled the branches in garbage cans, through the house without any damage. They cleaned everything when they left. I would 100% use them again!

I found Francisco off of Unilocal and met him last week. He and his just wrapped up and my back yard looks amazing. Very easy to deal with, his prices are very fair. The only thing I am mad about is that I did not find him sooner. I would definitely hire him again.

Francisco and his team did an awesome job on our back yard and trimming our front bushes. We are getting ready to put our house up for sale and didn’t have time to do the work ourselves. They came and in about 2 hrs completely cleaned up our yard. It was reasonably priced too. So glad we used them!

Francisco and his crew just finished cleaning out my overgrown back yard and tidied up my entryway and front yard from weeds. I also bought some flowers and plants from Orchard and he planted them for me. I wish that I had thought to take a before and after pic. It looks amazing! It is a delight now to drive up to the house and walk through the entryway. Looking out at the back yard which now is clean from weeds, scrubs pruned and flowers planted makes me so very happy.
Francisco is a genuinely nice, polite man who really listens and makes great suggestions. He and his crew got to work and just didn’t slow down until they were finished for the day. They are all great guys.
I would highly recommend Francisco. His bid was very reasonable, but most importantly his work was great!

We found Francisco on Unilocal,and he and his crew did an amazing job. He came in yesterday with his crew and in about 5 hours transformed our overgrown, spider infested backyard into a place we actually want to spend time. This included removing hundred of pounds of clay pots and turning off and filling in a malfunctioning water feature. Moreover, they did a great job of cleaning up.
We still keep walking out onto the deck to look at the transformed backyard. We will use them again and will recommend them to friends.

In the tightest pinch, Francisco and his diligent crew transformed my wasteland of a backyard back to respectability.
Overgrowth and weeds previously dominated the landscape, along with a small tree that extended its limbs to ridiculous proportions. He looked over the virtual jungle and made recommendations for which unhealthy plants were destined to be removed due to its possible negative impact on the garden’s environment.
Francisco and his staff cleared out all the undesirable growth and gave the little tree a much needed pruning. Massive amounts of their extracted work were hauled away as every inch of the backyard was cleared, cleaned and swept.
Without much notice on my part, Francisco and his crew managed to squeeze in an impromptu appointment, and complete all this difficult work in a little over an hour for a very reasonable rate. Very, very happy and satisfied with his work.
This lasting impression leaves me to believe I’ve found my gardening contractor for life.

We were searching for someone who could clean out the brush and overgrowth in the hilly backyard of our rental home in Miraloma park for a reasonable fee. Mr. Rodriguez most definitely filled the bill! To quote our tenants, «Francisco did a fantastic job — he was right on time, courteous, very professional, a great find!» He cleared out all the brush, dead bushes, small trees and even poison oak, and hauled it all away for a very fair fee. I would not hesitate to employ Mr. Rodriguez for your gardening needs! He’s our «go-​to» gardener for any future jobs.

Francisco did a great job in the back yard, he cut trees and cleaned out all mess we had in the garden. He cleaned after he was done and my back yard looks great! It’s not easy to find gardeners around here, so I was totally trusting the reviews, and happily I got great results. Thanks Francisco and crew!

Very professional, timely, and courteous. Great service.

I have been using Francisco Javier Rodriguez Landscaping for about 3 years now and have been very pleased. He is very professional and experienced as a gardener.
I’m one of those people who let the weeds take over and then call him once or twice a year for a big clean up. He doesn’t give you any grief about the state of your yard… just points out what needs to be done and gets to work.
Watch out… you may not see Javier or his assistants because they are hidden in the bushes, but you will see plants and weeds flying everywhere at amazing speeds.
You can count on them to show up with all of the necessary gardening tools and they will leave your yard clean and tidy. They always organize the children’s toys in the garden and add mulch if they have extra available. He makes sure the job is done right and takes pride in his work.
I’m always so happy when they are finished because there’s not a weed in sight and the bushes are trimmed and roses pruned. I can see all of my flowers and it’s no longer a jungle. Javier knows what he is doing and won’t mistake your plants and flowers for weeds.
Best of all, his rates are very reasonable. Give him a try, you’ll be pleased.

Javier was recommended to me by another Unilocaler (Poe T.). In about a day, he and his crew (including 2 of his brothers) transformed our jungle into a real backyard. They had to cut through enormous thickets of brush, thorns and weeds that have been breeding grounds for what must have been half of the spider population in San Francisco.
I was really impressed with Javier’s knowledge of plants (he pointed out the jasmine, lavendar, and other plants I might want to keep), the entire crew’s professionalism and the care they took to not make a mess and to clean up the small mess at the end of the job. This was especially difficult in our case because they had to take everything through our apartment. Javier had his crew put everything into garbage cans and carry them up and down the stairs to the truck outside. When they left, you wouldn’t have known they had been there.
My two small complaints: they were a little late arriving (had to do with picking up everyone) and Javier said he would do a couple of things that didn’t necessarily get passed along to his crew to complete. In the end, though, I didn’t mind because they were things above and beyond what I expected him to do and it would have just been a bonus if they had gotten to it.
Regardless, I would definitely recommend Javier and his crew to help clean-​up or fix-​up your outdoor space!
