Mr. Estrada is very nice but unreliable. I have used him once before, last summer, to remove some tree stumps from the yard. I made an appointment with him for... read more an estimate. He was more than an hour late because he had fallen asleep.  We made another date to have the work done. He later texted and said he would be at the house at 7:30 in the morning, three weeks before the actual date. He only takes cash or check.  Thankfully, I was home and able to drive to the location to pay him on that day.
I recently reached out to him again to do vine removal. We set an appointment time and date for an estimate/quote and then did not show up for the appointment.  I texted him the next day to inquire about the missed date.  He informed me that he had to work hard on other jobs the day he was supposed to be at my house because of the pending rain.  He then rescheduled the estimate appointment, only to once again show up late.  He quoted me a price, I confirmed he still only takes cash and checks, which is correct, but now if I paid with a check, I would be charged a 6% fee.  He set a date to do the work two days later, and I have not seen or heard from him since.
I have no complaints about the work he does. The problem is getting him to be more organized with appointments and show up when expected.

  Was very responsive and worked with us to make our vision a reality. Showed up quickly and finished the job sooner than committed. His crew was very professional and left... read more the place cleaner than when they arrived. I would highly recommend them.

  We had them come back a year later to add two more layers to the retaining wall plus raised planter beds. Very pleased with how it turned out.
