I found Safari Landscaping on Yelp so I'm paying it forward now.
I'm getting ready to sell my house and the real estate agent suggested that the back yard, which was a weed-filled mess, could really use some work. I'm helpless with such things, but knew she was right. I found Safari Landscaping and explained to Mike and Fidencio that my goal was to get it cleaned up and presentable so that it wouldn't take away from the value of the home, with minimal cost. Mike handled the initial contact, and then had Fidencio come out to take a look, provide me with a quote and image of what I would be looking at and helped me with decisions to keep the cost to a minimum. They took care of the work while I was out of town and everything looks just exactly as promised. My yard now has a paver patio, rock cover and small shrubs around the perimeter. While it's not exactly anybody's dream yard, it was done at a very reasonable cost and will help me get this house sold. The next owner can decide if they want to upgrade to grass or artificial turf, but at least they won't be looking at a wasteland when they come to view the house.
Thanks Fidencio! Great work!
