I chose C & A Landscapes from a phone book. Yes, a phone book. A heavy object composed of yellow paper! That is how long José has been taking care of my yard. He is knowledgeable and honest. Most of all, he has a true passion for plants, especially desert plants. (This is huge, since I seem to be incapable of growing even the simplest flower on my own!)
Last summer José asked if he could also take care of my pool. I said yes, and it was a great decision. Now my yard work is done synergistically.
As the years have gone on, several neighbors - having seen how trustworthy he is - have also hired José to take care of their yards. All have thanked me.
Fellow Yelpers, you do not have to pick a landscaper out of a phone book! That is old school. Benefit from my experience, and call C & A Landscapes.
