Daniel did my daughters landscape  in Sherman Oaks.  They were so thrilled we asked  him to make charges to our front and back yard. Accessible, timely and easy to work with. More...

I found Daniel through my listing agent. Daniel and his crew are accommodating, friendly and my landscaping has never looked better. I wish I had found him when I first moved to Los Angeles. He completely repaired damage done by past (uneducated and detrimental) landscapers. I get compliments all the time from friends and neighbors. Daniel and his crew where on time (always) and they went above and beyond to make sure I was happy and that my property looked beautiful. He is truly an artist and incredibly experienced and knowledgeable. Additionally, all his care, work and maintenance are reasonably priced. If you are looking for a landscaping and gardening company with a strong work ethic, friendly and reliable services, and beautiful delivery that goes above and beyond, Daniel and DC Gardening is the team you should hire.

Daniel re-landscaped our front yard. Going to the nursery with him was a great experience. He showed us plants we had never seen before. He listened to our feedback and helped us choose plants that would achieve the results we wanted.Daniel's design greatly improved the appearance of our home. He and his team are honest, respectful, and efficient. They completed the work, including moving a couple of sprinklers and adding drip lines to improve water efficiency, in just three days.  We're extremely pleased with the results. More...

I recently hired Daniel after reading reviews on Yelp, and I echo what another reviewer stated. "FINALLY A REAL gardener and not a mow and blow! " He returned my call immediately and met with me the next day. A week later (work completed 10/21/15), Daniel and his crew planted California Drought tolerant plants in an array of colors in our front yard, removed a small dead tree, recommended that I keep my daisies, removed them from the front and replanted them in our side yard. His prices are fair. He and his crew are efficient, professional, punctual and most of all he DOES NOT TRY TO SELL YOU GOODS/SERVICES THAT ARE NOT NEEDED. He does the opposite - HE POINTS OUT WAYS TO SAVE MONEY. Daniel capped off sprinklers that were not necessary, installed bubble lines to make sure new plants get proper amount of water, and decreased watering time on our sprinkler system. I also hired him to take care of weekly maintenance, and his crew was able to begin that process as well - trimming back tall hedges and a tree in backyard.  Although he cost's more than our previous gardner $45 more per mo., It's worth it based on service he is providing. Again, it's not a mow and blow service, and the much needed curb appeal is worth it!  HIGHLY RECOMMEND. More...

I hired DC Gardening service to replace my front lawn with drought tolerant landscaping. They did a really nice job and finished on schedule. There was an issue with one of the drip irrigation lines afew weeks later but they fixed it a couple days after I contacted them. I plan to hire them again for a future project. More...

We have only been using Daniel's services  for a few weeks now, but we are thrilled! Have had so many gardeners over the years who have ruIned plantings that we had made, left the yard looking not much different than when they arrived, the list could go on! But my husband discovered Daniel on Facebook, and so we thought we'd give his crew a try.  Can't say enough good things about this team .....everyone is so courteous, communicates well, and the job they do is just great! Last week they dug a new flowerbed and planted a tree and rose bushes for me .....exactly where I wanted each bush (Juan double checked where he was putting everything ....I was so impressed) . My yard has never looked better. We have found THE ideal gardening service! More...

I have been using the same gardener for several years now but no matter how many times I urged him to improve the quality of my front and backyard, or how much money I gave him, he consistently failed to do much besides planting a few flowers and mowing the grass.  I had poor water flow from my sprinklers, grass that looked more like weeds than anything, and the flowers kept dying within just a few weeks after being planted.  I finally decided to take the appearance of my home more seriously and searched on Yelp for a reliable professional to redo my irrigation and landscaping.  I had 5 people show up at my door to give me an estimate and I interviewed them meticulously.  I knew I found the right person for the job just based upon Daniel's professionalism during our first encounter.  He was the only person who brought stationary to write notes, create a blueprint of what was to be done, and provide an accurate estimate for everything that was going to take place.  No other landscaper came with even a pen, and just blurted out numbers off the top of their heads while briefly telling me what they were going to do.  But I was glad when I finally met Daniel, and hired his services for weekly maintenance as well as redoing all of my irrigation and landscaping.The next week, Daniel and his crew came in and started to work on the job with much enthusiasm.  They were all affable and very respectful at all times.  They redid all the pipes starting from the main water line and neatly installed new pipes alongside my house.  Daniel was always available to answer any of my questions and gave me a comprehensive update at the end of each work day.  I was amazed to see how my property was gradually looking more like a newly built home just by the changes in the front and backyard.  He picked the most beautiful plants and flowers, and the grass looked like the type you see out on a golf course.  I'm sure that my property value increased just by having Daniel work his magic.  I was very pleased with the end result and paid a very competitive price for everything.  Daniel's crew has been coming by every week to do the maintenance, and they leave my home looking as neat as it did when the job was initially complete.By the way, I ran into raccoon problems a week after the new grass had been laid out.  They kept rolling the grass up to pick at the worms, which ultimately lead to that part of my grass dying.  I took care of the raccoon issue with a trapper and once Daniel saw the parts of the grass that were dead, he told me that his job wasn't to just perform services that were paid, but was to make me a happy client.  He brought over new grass and redid the parts that were ruined by the raccoons for free!  It's very rare to see such professionalism within the landscaping business.  I would highly recommend Daniel to anyone who is looking to make their home into a much more beautiful place to live.

Daniel and his crew have been extremely responsive and a pleasure to communicate with. I have a tricky property with lots of detail, so I need an owner that puts his eyes to things. Daniel definitely stays on top of his team. I would recommend them. More...

I found Daniel on Yelp.  We had about 220 square feet of dirt, a badly graded slope and old grass and in 3 weeks he turned it into a magnificent thick and lush green carpet with a gentle slope.  He leaves nothing to chance and insists that the sprinkler system works to the best advantage and makes it happen.  He comes after the first week to check on the growth and watering and after the second week to check everything and also adjust the time on the sprinklers.  He is thorough and professional.  I highly recommend him.

I found Daniel on Angies list about 5 years ago, and he had been taking good care of my mom's yard and landscaping. His crew has always been reliable and the yard looks great, so I decided to try him for my own yard landscaping. After 5 years with my gardener, the yard lwas seriously deteriorating. The edging was all coming out, the sod was almost dead and my irrigation system was falling apart and barely doing the job. I asked Daniel to assess the landscaping and make a proposal. He made me a good offer and we struck a deal. Over the next few weeks he removed my dead lawn, roto-tilled and graded my large front, side and back lawns. He completely redesigned my irrigation system, repaired the defective heads and valves and made sure everything would be adequately watered. Then he installed my hardscape edging, planted some plants and installed sod. He has followed up for the past six months to make sure everything is getting established. Daniel makes sure the grass is fertilized regularly and any broken or defective sprinklers or valves get handled immediately. Daniel is a serious professional and approaches each job with a certain intensity that may seem a bit aloof. I have come to understand how seriously he takes his business--and I have been happy to finally find a reliable gardener who doesn't constantly create drama and mayhem. His prices for maintenance are also in line with all of the recent quotes I've obtained. DC Gardener is approximately the 5th gardener I have used in the last 15 years, so I feel qualified to give him my highest recommendation. More...
