"Sebastian is honest and takes pride in his work. Before we proceeded with the hill Sebastian was extremely helpful with ideas on tree and plant placement given the vision and budget we were working with. He recommended to use drip irrigation on the hill and this was a very valuable piece of advice. This has minimized weeds from growing and also has made our investment of trees and plants properly flourish. Sebastian has also performed removal of several trees on our property. I highly recommend Sebastian for any of your landscape needs."

We can help you get the best from the space available. We consider existing features, good and bad, and how these might fit into the new scheme. What new features would be appropriate bearing in mind the site and your budget. We will provide a sensible plan with options, schemes and work schedules for you to consider and discuss. We are always glad to explain details you are not sure about or to offer alternative suggestions. Our expertise is the management of your exterior space to create a garden to reflect your aspiration...and grounds to be the envy of your neighborhood.

"This years rain brought a very bad weed and brush problem at my property (@4,000sf of hillside planters). Weeds were 4 -5 feet high in some areas and almost every inch of my property was covered. The previous company i used was OK, but i did not really like the owner who seemed a little "off" and would just pull a number quickly out of his head before he even discussed the scope of work. I had been looking at landscape reviews for some time...all had some negative reviews along with positive. I finally decided to give C. Perez a try (least concerning negatives and a lot of positives). I reached out to Cipriano who was on time (actually early) for the consultation. He thoughtfully looked at the scope of work, and actually gave it some thought before blurting out a figure. We discussed the options of hand pulling vs. weed whacker and which locations would be best for each method. He gave me a price that I thought was fair. Cipriano texted me to confirm the night before, and the crew (i think there were four total) showed up on time and got to work immediately. They actually completed the work in less time than they had originally estimated, but they did not cut any corners. They did the job almost entirely by hand with only one small area using the whacker. They removed a few dead shrubs for me, clipped a few tree branches and cleaned up corners I had not pointed out to them...they even pulled some weeds between the driveway stones and on my deck. I could not believe how thorough they were and how neat and clean everything was left. I wish I had taken before and after photos but sadly I did not. I would absolutely use them again and recommend to anyone looking for a hardworking, sincere company owner that seems to genuinely want to do the best job he can for his clients."

Moreno landscape and tree service Serving Los Angeles since 2000 providing : , tree trimming , lacing, crown reduction, topping, stump removal, palms trees trim and removal Landscape design, landscape maintenance, fertilizer,for plants, bushes,flowers and trees. Wood fences and gates. Harscape stone slate or brick patios and walkways , driveways, cement walls ect..... SPECIAL PRICE FOR SOD INSTALLATION PER SQUARE FEET

"On August 15, 2022 Johnny came over to spray the front yard with Roundup a weed killer. On August 22th He and his worker came with a weed/grass removal machine and removed 3" of grass. He then put a fabric lawn cover over the top of the dirt and hauled away the debris. He said it was an industrial strength lawn cover. I don't believe that is true because the weeds came through the fabric as the photos will show. On December 14, 2022 I contacted him via text and a photo asking him what happened? I didn't expect 4 months later the front yard would be full of weeds. I contacted him again on December 16 with more photos and asked him what he was planning to do. I never heard from him. Before hiring his company I asked him if he guaranteed his work and he assured me he did. Unfortunately, I didn't get a contract nor an invoice which I asked for but didn't receive."

Lawn dethatching services FAQs

Dethatching machines look like lawnmowers but have blades that cut down in crisscrossing motions. This action loosens the thatch, which is then raked up separately and removed. You might see some dethatching machines with rake-like tines. These often do not offer the best experience compared to those with blades.

You should fertilize your lawn after dethatching. This gives the damaged grass a solid nutrient boost to aid quick recovery, helping your lawn to grow back greener and stronger. Fertilizing before dethatching wastes your time, money, and energy and may even damage your lawn.

Yes, dethatching is worth it if you've got a thick thatch layer. Grab a trowel, dig up a small section of soil and grass, and check how thick the thatch layer is. If it's an inch or more, and you're noticing problems like thinning grass, weak, patchy grass, or pale coloring, it could be time to dethatch to restore health and vigor.

The cost to reseed a lawn typically ranges from $400 to $1,800. The total price often depends on the size of your lawn and the type of service needed.
