Service Provider Response

Hi Hope you are doing great!... So sorry you are mistaken we do go to all the following areas and Cities: Loomis, Rocklin, Granite Bay, Roseville, Antelope, Rio Linda, Citrus Heights, Natomas, Folsom, and all Northern Sacramento areas. I answer your email and said we at the moment are not taking any more clients in any other Cities unless you live in Roseville or Antelope. All others cities are completely full and we only have a little bit of room for only a few in those Cities mention above. Also we do not go to West Sacramento do to all the horrible traffic we have encounter in the past. we used to go over 5 years ago and can't express how much time we lost on the different free ways. A wise word of advise I can give you is to interview at least 4-5 potential gardener in your local area. We know of lots of great gardener that Service locally try Penny Saver, Angist List and Sacramento Bee. In this tape of business it takes a while to drive and load and unload machinery is best to just stay in areas where you can get to work right away. Thank you for your interested in our business and so Sorry we are not able to help you. We are completely full and want to keep it manageable and simple at this time. We take pride in being a small family business and can't be more grateful for the Wonderful reviews and response from all new and old clients. God bless! Karina Melgar.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review, even though it was prior to the service we performed for the first time yesterday, 6/5/14. Now that you have been serviced by our crew, we hope that you are satisfied with the professional job that was done. The monthly price you were quoted for $85.00 covers 4 visits per month, which costs $21.25 each visit, and should the month have an extra Thursday (5th visit) you are actually paying $17.00 for each visit in which there are 5 visits performed. This is not only very affordable, but is an extremely low price given your property is approximately 2,500 square feet worth of sod. As long as you are a regular monthly client, and are happy with our services, we are able to give you the lowest price possible. Thank you for choosing A. Melgar Gardening & Landscaping for your gardening needs! Arnulfo & Karina Melgar

The wife was kind, caring, heartfelt and genuine I. Coming out to give an estimate, the best price offered, do a thorough job, and schedule things with unusually excellent communication. So far, the scheduled days have proven to be well ordered and Mr Melgar has been punctual and consistent. I set up recurring maintenance and am impressed with the work. I HIHLY RECOMMEND Mr Melgar, His wife and his brother! They are good people! Beautiful family that are dedicated to serve your needs. Thanks to them, as a single parent it is a huge burden lifted!

From the moment I spoke to Karina, and then met both Karina and Jesus, I knew we had chosen the right people for this job. We purchased our home in November and the yard and bushes were overgrown and hadn't really been taken care of. We had a vision of what we wanted, but it wasn't until we met with Karina and Jesus that the vision became a real plan. We all worked together and brought it to life. Karina even went to Green Acres with us and helped us pick out flowers that we really loved, and that would grow well in our yard. She made recommendations, and spent a great deal of time and effort making sure we got just what we needed and stayed within our budget. They are both so knowledgeable and helpful...they really know what they're doing! Jesus has got to be the hardest working man we've ever seen! He shows up when he says he's going to, does what he says he's going to, and works so hard. He and his assistant showed up at 9:30 am on Saturday morning to start our project. By 11:00, they had 4 trees out of the ground...stumps, roots, and all. He's quick, but extremely efficient. He is a perfectionist and has a very sharp eye for making everything look just right. Our job took 3 days to complete, and on every one of those days, he let us know what he would be doing that day, asked if we had any questions, and made sure we were happy with the progress. Today, when the project was finished and Jesus left, my husband and I stood outside and looked at all the beautiful flowers and were so happy and so proud, even a little emotional. It was a nice feeling to have a pretty yard that we could really be proud of, and that will grow and blossom more and more over time. We intend to have Jesus and Karina do more projects. We don't want anyone else touching our yard now! I highly recommend their services. They are helpful, kind, knowledgeable, professional, and truly good people. We are so grateful to have found them...you will be too!

You want to hire the Melgars - period. They both are extremely talented and creative, and are honest business owners - which is getting harder and harder to find. They go out of their way to make sure every customer is satisfied with their work, and they get it right the first time. I would also strongly recommend Karina for her incredible house cleaning services. She has twice completed a full, thorough cleaning of my house after two sets of tenants moved out, and each time she restored it to a level of quality that you won't find anywhere else. She listens to what you want, offers suggestions based on her experience, and in the end makes sure you are happy with the work. I can't say enough good things about them, and anyone who finds fault with their work clearly has unrealistic expectations. I strongly recommend them!
Description of Work
I originally hired Arnulfo and Karina to redo my back yard - new sod, clear away dead trees, drip irrigation system, bark along the planters, etc. The amount of work they did - and the high quality that was put into it - far exceeded what they charged me, which was $350. Based off of that, I asked them to continue providing weekly service to my back yard (HOA takes care of the front), which I pay $75/month.

Our lawn and yard already look better than before. We had a general cleanup done, with a refresh of our bark and a layer of beautiful stones for the backyard areas instead of bark. We're very pleased with the quality of the work, and with how things look. The work is done principally by Jesus Melgar and his brothers, while Karina, Jesus' wife, handles most of the business end. They are both very nice and more knowledgeable than other landscapers we have hired. Jesus is an extremely hard worker and something of a perfectionist. He won't leave a job until it's finished properly, a quality we appreciate.
Description of Work
Most recently, this was just a maintenance visit. When we first hired A. Melgar, we had a general cleanup done, which was quite a bit of work in the long run.

They were on time, good competitive price, meticulous work, caring in the details, good follow through. This work was done for my daughter, who I referred to this vendor because I was pleased with his work. The tree was large, and in an difficult place against a concrete fence in the backyard. He was concerned with safety, worked efficiently, and when a storm came through, he stopped working and returned the next day to finish up. He also suggested cleaning up the sides of the house, which we did, and now have so much more useable space out there for the BBQ and storage. It looks so much better. Thank you!!

The owner's have been incredibly easy to reach and they communicate back quickly and professionally. The price quoted was fair. Details were explained thoroughly. I called to ask for the grass to be a bit shorter and with the very next service, it was perfect for me. They are more than willing to do what I ask and they offer advice if there's a better idea. I would recommend them.

This was very much a positive experience from the beginning to end. Arnulfo and his wife Karina are a great team. On the first visit, he took measurements and looked over the areas where I needed work, she took extensive notes, and I received a quote within a few days via email. I actually made a change to my original plan of keeping the tree and decided to get rid of it, and the quote was adjusted accordingly. He and his coworkers arrived on the scheduled start day and then did work every day for a few days (as you can see from the list above, there was a LOT of work -- the tree removal alone was quite a chore). Karina remained in contact during the work to let me know what was going on. That price included two follow-up visits to check on the lawn and do the first mowing. All in all, I was very pleased with the work and the price, and my yards look so much better now.
Description of Work
Removed a large tree from the front yard (it had extensive roots which were causing problems), removed weeds from the front and back, removed front and back lawns (the back lawn was dead), trimmed shrubs, put down new sod in the front and back yards, put down fresh mulch, planted a new shrub I had purchased, replaced a valve and several sprinkler heads that are part of the irrigation system, and replaced the timer for the irrigation system. This was all done over a few days. He also came back two weeks later to check on the sod and to adjust the irrigation schedule and came back a week after that to do the first mowing of the new lawn and plant a new tree I had purchased for the front lawn.

I'm so Sorry you feel that way about us and you feel the need to give us such an unfair and untrue review, but you do have the wright to express how you feel even if all that you are saying is not true. We did absolutely Everything possible to please you, you the wife hired us and for 5 months we never received a call or a complain, out of the blue your husband call very angry asking to meet in person and go over all the agreement on the gardening maintenance. I arrived and explain to your husband we only are hired to service the home twice a month and the second visit for very last month we served you the back gate was lock. we tried knocked on the door and call several time to try to leave a message and could not figure out what was happening. You and your husband had left on a camping trip somewhere, Never call us to let us know, and we had not access to back yard to do the work, Since then a month and a half had gone by and by the time you got back, weeds, leafs, volunteers, and small unwanted greenery were growing everywhere. We clean up all one month and a half worth of greenery and all mention above at no extra charge. We also replace at least 5 to 6 dripping system splinklers and small splinklers head and did a general check up on all irrigation at No extra charge just to make you happy and to keep you, my husband and I did all this on a Sunday for almost 4 hours and after all this clean up and all this free irrigation material and free labor you were not happy. And wanted more from us. We explain you had high expectation but only wanted to pay for 2 visit a month, it was not enough for a beautiful and high maintenance property like yours. you only pay us $75 for 2 visits a month and wanted us to spend hours for that amount, everything started to down hill from that almost two month you were gone and we had no communication from anyone It was not our responsibility to do all that for free because you forgot to contact us and let us know how we could get in the back yard to do all the work. My husband and I run to your property every time you called and wanted this or that, and this is the way business is and we sure are nothing than greatful for clients like you that makes us appreciated what we have going with other clients. The best to you and your husband and have not regrets to have done all that for you and your family, For whoever ask you to go one mile go with him two those are wise and true words from the good old book.

We have been using them for more than 2 years. We are kind of fortunate that they are our neighbors. They do a very nice job. They do our repairs on our fences, plant trees, take care of the yard and we have no problem with them. They kind of give us a little bit of a break because we are their neighbor and we kind of take care of and watch each other. So we think we are getting a little bit better rate. The owner of the company is the most conscientious as anybody I have ever seen. There are times when I have not set my watering in a timely manner during the summer and because he is across the street he would come over and make sure that my water is turned on, that the grass would not die. Again we are his neighbor but he takes this attitude with all his customers. In fact his wife kind of complains that he works too hard. It is a good choice I have no regrets.
