They come weekly. The price is a monthly thing. I haven't had to ask them anything. They just come and they do their job. They are here every week, so the punctuality is good, very good. I just don't really engage with them very much. They do their job and it seems fine. Whatever we ask, they do. Certain bushes have been shortened without us having to mention it all the time.
Description of Work
They trim the lawn, bushes, stuff like that.

Our 4 unit condo building used Diaz Bros. for years but last year decided to try another company. We were very unhappy with the service provided by that service and switched back to Diaz this year. They were very responsive to our concerns and said they would work with us to improve communication and billing details. We now have a detailed list of all services provided and costs so that we know what we are being billed for. They have already been out to the property and we anticipate a good relationship this season.

I don't recall ever hearing from this gentleman nor giving any estimates at this address.MIORITA O.

Mr. Diaz told me he could come over in an hour to look but did not show up. When I called for the second time to see if maybe they forgot, Mr. Diaz responded that one of his trucks had broken down and he forgot to call me to let me know he would be late. He told me he was on his way over. He phoned a short time later to say he was in front of my house but it turned out he was at the right house number but the next block over from mine. When Mr. Diaz arrived, I told him what I was planning and asked what monthly mowing services were available. I told him that I had my grass mowed twice a month and he stated that they only performed lawn service every week to which I responded I did not want my grass cut short every week because it looked "burned" as other landscapers cut it too short in previous years and there were mower marks. I also noticed that if the grass was left to grow a bit longer in hot weather, it is not as dried out looking. Mr. Diaz remarked that "landscapers don't burn the grass". I then told Mr. Diaz my plans to make flower beds along my walkway and he responded "that will be a lot of weeding". At every point of my plans that I spoke about, I found Mr. Diaz to be either contrary or negative. I don't think I want to deal with someone's negative, hostile atittude. And, I am not going to be pushed into maintaining my lawn every week for $50 X4 because it is not necessary to mow my lawn more than twice a month (this summer it was not mowed for 3 weeks during the hot spell because the grass didn't grow at all). I did not get a warm fuzzy feeling from this contractor and I don't argue with individuals that I am planning on paying to do services for me. So, with that said, I was not impressed at all.
Description of Work
No services were performed, I wanted an estimate to have my lawn mowed and a triangular shaped flower bed made.

Diaz Bros. does good work, does it quickly. Last year, they were late in billing me monthly, but this last year, especially this fall, they have much improved submitting their invoices in a timely manner.
Description of Work
Diaz Bros provides my onoging lawn maintenance for the last several years. They do a really good job and come on the same day each week. They also took down a tree for me this fall. They subcontracted that out, but it all went very well. they always clean up after themselves and leave the place orderly. They charge a bit more, but I think the quality of work they do backs it up.

Overall it went fine. It's sometimes difficult to reach Mr. Diaz at the beginning of the season to get the work kicked-off, but eventually when you connect, he makes things happen very quickly.
Description of Work
Has performed seasonal yard care for past 2 years for my condo association. This included beginning and end of season clean up and prep, tree timming and bush and yard work from approx. May to October.

They show up each week, on time. They do a great job. The company is family run and they have done an excellent job on all accounts. Price depends on the size of the property and the work done. Call for an estimate.

They clean my gutters for me and charge me $25 a month. Sometimes it takes a while to get them to do certain things that you want them to do and you can?t always talk to the ones that are doing the work because a lot of them don?t speck English well. There is one that I am able to get a hold of, but I think he quite busy. They do pretty good work and it is very rare that I call and have to say anything. They come in and it only takes them a few minutes and but clean up after themselves, and they keep on top of things.

They do the mulch and top soil when I ask for it. They put mulch all over my fir trees in front of the house, rose bush, peer leaves and my hedges at the back of the house. On Saturday they were doing the mulch. Last year I asked for refurbish of stones and I got the mulch, but he forgot the stones. I called again and reminded him, but he still did not get it, so I said forget it because I did not need it right now.

They do the lawn work, trimmed my fir trees in front once in the season and my hedges at the back twice. They are a little late and this time they normally trim my fir trees, but also one day when I came home the fir tree was done. They charge me $55 a month. They also put new sod in where the grass was picked off by the cement when I was having new sidewalks done. I must have had a tree in front of my house, so there was a dip in my lawn. They put the sod in while they were doing the other side. They automatically some out every Monday, even if it is a holiday.

Luis was responsive to our inquiries and promptly set a date for the work. Everyone showed up on time.
Description of Work
11 evergreen bushes and 2 small trees plus all sod were removed from front yard. They also removed concrete stones and foundation from an old garden wall. They cultivated the soil, raked and graded the lawn, and spread mulch. The tree and concrete removal was very difficult; they worked hard and fast.We are very satisfied with the job they did.

I?ve generally had a positive experience, but they are a very weird company. The owner of the company first came out to do an estimate and survey my yard. He said that he would start with a thorough clean up that would cost $75, where they?d clean my gutters and trim my tree. After that, they?d cut the grass every subsequent week which would cost $15. The first time they came, they did a bit of clean up, but not as much as they said they were going to do - they never touched my gutters or my tree. I called them to let them know mostly for billing purposes that this wasn?t done, and I never got a call back. They came that following Tuesday, and they have come every Tuesday after that. My biggest problem is that they don?t bring a lawnmower but a weed whacker, and I guess it is because you get what you pay for. I was under the impression that the yard would be mowed. For somebody who is not living in their backyard and playing in the grass, it is perfectly acceptable. If you want a great, cheap, easy, simple, efficient and reliable service, they are great. In that respect I am really happy with their service. However, I would like more contact, and the communication to be more consistent.

We use the services of Diaz Bros Landscaping, and they come over every Tuesday.

We had a little issue with punctuality with Diaz Brothers, however when they got out to do the work it went well and they got it done in about half a day. They are reasonably priced and do very good work. Overall we had a good experience with Diaz Brothers.

Luiz had to cancel the first scheduled time due to sod not being ready (not his fault). However, we rescheduled a second time and when he didn't show up at the time we agreed to, I had to call him at which point he told me his driver was ill and he wouldn't be able to do the job until a few days later. We had a number of things arranged to coincide with the work or that was relying on the completion of the work so this was a disappointment and we had to cancel the service. My issue was primarily with his responsiveness.
Description of Work
Was scheduled to lay sod in back yard and replace under deck area with river rock.

I have to say I was disappointed. It took three separate calls and three nearly identical promises by Luis Diaz ("we'll be there next Tuesday or Wednesday") before they actually showed up. I understand about delays, rain, etc., but I do not understand not communicating if you can't keep your word. They did a decent job of thinning the ground cover and creating the vegetable bed, but trimmed only the one already torn branch and did not trim the other obviously dead branches on the tree.
Description of Work
Spring clean-up of front yard, including trimming a tree, thinning ground cover and removing a bush to make room for a small vegetable bed.

I chose Luiz based on his rating on Angie's list. We spoke on the phone and he made an appointment to come to my house to give me an estimate but never showed up. I called and left a message thinking perhaps I had misunderstood our appointment time. I got no response. I called and left another message asking if we could re-schedule our appointment for an estimate and again, never heard back. No response at all. I wasted two weeks of growing season waiting for him to return calls. I'm really disappointed.

Based on the Angie's List review, I called and left a voicemail asking for them to come by and look at the grounds around my condo. Never heard back so called again and spoke to someone who said they'd go out and look and call with an estimate. Several days later, I called to find out the status of my estimate and left a voicemail; never heard back.

Started out great with the terrific estimate but went downhill fast when he failed to show up and didn't return phone calls.
Description of Work
Luis came out and gave us a great estimate for some yard work/sod. I called to tell him that we wanted to hire him and set another appointment for him to come out and talk about additional work I wanted done. He did not show up for the appointment and never returned my phone calls made after the missed appointment. I know we all miss/forget things sometimes, but not receiving a courtesy call back was terrible business.

I was very happy with them and had hoped to sign a contract with them for the season. Due to power struggles within the association, I was not able to and am sorry we cannot employ them. Had this been a decision solely up to me, I would have.
Description of Work
Diaz brothers were right on quick to respond to my emails and phone calls. They came out same day to give me a quote, wrote up a proposal and emailed the contract within the very quick turnaround I had asked for. They presented as knowledgeable and professional when surveying the landscape and giving recommendations for work needed.

Luis Diaz came out on schedule to give me an estimate, and said he would come out as early in the week followin Easter weekend as possible. It rained the first few days of the week and his crew came the first day it was clear. They were neat, polite, professional, and Luis made lots of suggestions for maintenance and landscaping. We were very pleased and arranged for his crew to do our weekly yardwork all summer.
Description of Work
Spring cleanup of whole yard. Removed debris and dirt that was about 1 foot deep from a narrow area between garage and fence. Trimmed overgrown yew and hydrangeas. Spread grass seed. Removed debris from under deck. Removed a mulberry tree that was creating a mess.
