My biggest problem with the company is their apparent complete disregard for water saving measures. I have never seen one employee look at water waste when the sprinklers are running in the Northbridge neighborhood in Valencia. I have been taking evening walks here for many years, and am always struck by the massive runoff in area that are clearly being overwatered. I have written to SCV Water about this. Apparently commercial customers are not accountable to preserving our water.

An employee from this company shot a rock through my personal vehicles window. Spoke with the employee who was apologetic. Was given contact info a supposed manager in so cal named Juan. After discussing the matter, I was assured the damage would be covered by the company. 1 week later, no response and the shop handling the repair hasn't had the balance paid either. Needless to say very shady and unprofessional. Imagine if they damaged something larger.

Stay Green landscaping does an extremely poor if not sloppy job servicing the Cheyenne Condos in Valencia. The workers are repeatedly told not to blow leaves into the bushes. Our grass is dying because Stay Green does not maintain the sprinkler system. The bushes and hedges are only timmed twice per year -- all by hand! Their quality of work is very sloppy, as if Stay Green's workers at the Cheyenne Condos have no pride in a job well done.

The What I find most appaling is that two weeks ago Stay Green came in and spruned our Sycamore and Pepper trees in the heat of the summer in a most extreme way! In this concrete urban jungle the residents depend on the shade from the trees to keep the community cool. But the most despicable thing is that the yrees were pruned while mourning doves and hummingbirds are still nesting! Is'nt there a law against this? Is it wise to cut Sycamore trees in August?

The sad part is that the HOA and Valencia Mangement Company do not hold Stay Green accountable for their shoddy work. Its a shame that Cheyenne's landscaping is below par for the Northbridge Valencia area. I am concerned Cheyenne will be labeled the "ghetto of Northbridge" Stay Green must hold their workers to higher standards and must be accountable to the communities in whic they serve.

I wish that I could have posted before and after pictures of what the property looked like under the direction of StayGreen and how it looks now. I'm an HOA Board member for the past few years. Stay green came to meeting with fancy pens and pages of proposed work as well as a free drip irrigation system. For 2 years the did nothing but blow debris around the complex and trimmed bushes as if they were blind.

The drip system never worked properly and what little vegitation we did have was killed from lack if water. They never picked up a piece of paper if it was lying on the ground. We found their trash tucked hidden away in our trashcan cubbies. I'm not sure that some if the workers even knew what they were doing. We had a sprinkler system for the huge grass area.

It was always flooding. When we reported it, they said that they fixed it. I have the actual photos of the Mickey mouse, sub-par job they did. While under contract with us, they never tended to the free irrigation system and the sprinklers that did work only watered the cement and wooden fences. We complained numerous times. These people also had the nerve to take naps on our grassy areas. I guess they count on the premise that no one will notice their unprofessional business practices. I wouldn't recommend them to maintain a cat box!

Not only do they do a great job, but they sponsor & donate to so many great causes in the surrounding communities. I see their trucks & employees all around town & we are very happy with our service. If you need a commercial maintenance company or someone to do tree work or even brush clearance, I would recommend them!

But these past five months the guys have been doing horrible work. Yesterday they cut the grass and left the grass clippings everywhere it was a mess. As hot as it was I had to get up the mess they made around my area. Back on June 3, 2020. I had called to Stay Green and talked to Diana she was very nice. I told her that the landscaping guys had damaged the grass. Scalping it to low to the dirt.

But she got back with me and she told me that her boss told her to tell me to have the contract holder to get in touch with him. So in other words he didn't care because I am just a tenant living on Public Housing Property. Plus there is a Pandemic going on so our Maintenance Supervisor will know what they are doing

Do not use this company, if you are part of an HOA, check to see if they use them. They use Roundup to kill weeds but is also kills humans and our pets. It is a known carcinogen and has been outlawed in many cities including Calabasas which is where our community is. We have had several neighbors develop lymphoma as well as two of our dogs that have since passed. Please make sure they are not killing your community as well.

Clowns, our land lord uses them in the Valencia industrial park. The clowns come through with their leaf blowers and blow dirt in the air all over everyone's vehicles and under the office doors. Clearly these guys they hire have no common sense. There's a reason they are all 40-50 years old and running a leaf blower is all they are qualified to do and they can't even do that right.

Stay away from these clowns. They will destroy your landscape. Totally inept and wouldn't know the difference between a hose pipe and a ham sandwich.

Stay green is the worse landscapers I ever seen they have a guy named j.t that was high on methanphetamine and was constantly lying to me and trying to mislead me. I don't recommend this company.

I have been referring people with plant pest issues in the Los Angeles area for over 10 years. This is an excellent company!

I thought this was a reputable company but based on my recent experience, they are sub par. They have arborists who don't return phone calls and don't seem to care if they get any more business. Julio M. told me he could come out to my house and never came. He doesn't return text messages and I was recently told he no longer handles my area. Fantastic!

Then there is Adam H. who doesn't return phone calls either. Even when the receptionist said she would have him call me in 5 minutes, no phone call! This company has gone downhill. Totally incompetent and unprofessional. I will be taking my business elsewhere.

Our HOA contracted with Stay Green to do a property-wide evaluation of what all trees needed for pruning, insect control, fungus control, antibiotics and nutrients. The Cypress trees were suppose to be pruned and thinned out. Instead, their crew cut them back so severely the trunks now look like telephone poles. On other trees their pruning lacked symmetry.

I understand this is subjective, but when I look at trees in my neighborhood pruned with an artful skill, I know more attractive pruning can be done. I will not use Stay Green for pruning again. What is terrific about Stay Green is Wes, who is their sprayer. He spent over 8 hours here providing the medical treatment for the trees. He let me shadow him to take notes about what he was doing so I could educate myself about tree care.

He was very patient with me, explained in detail every step he took and why, and how to evaluate what kind of treatment a tree needs. I could tell he is very engaged by the mission of tree care. I recommend Wes at Stay Green for treating trees. He's terrific. Chuck Pace, MPH, MSW

Such a shame. I pull into my Moms condo complex and 22 trees that died are being cut down and removed. Stay Green has been the Landscaping and 'Tree Service' company for this place fir years and years. 22 trees.didn't these professionals see when the trees were beginning to fail? Couldn't they be treated? The complex has been covered with smelly wood chips that they spread everywhere and the turf conversion.it's as ghetto as ghetto looks.

These owners deserved better and do did the 22 trees! On a positive note I heard they have been fired. Bottom line if you want professionals to take care of your area don't hire them. After what I've seen I highly doubt they even know what a botanist is.

It appears that not only are these guys incompetent at their trade, they have some of the worst drivers as well. On 10/6/15, one of their trucks was weaving in and out of traffic on De Soto near Victory cutting people off and entering traffic from the turn lanes. Very dangerous driver and no regard for those around him. CA License plate 26344J1 (maybe 26344U1 - hard to read) Video at: https://youtu.be/eifycuLqjzE

Our condo association used Stay Green for several years, they did not deliver on many contract services. This included negotiated scope of work which were included in contract. Through the years I conducted several walkthroughs with them and would be placated on landscaping issues but several months would pass and none of the work would be completed. Beware if you hire them, they don't live up to contract. In fact our grounds were in worse condition when our association ended our contract with them.

DO NOT retain the services of Stay Green Inc. - they hire incredibly incompetent workers who are not proficient enough in their trade to comprehend that bulbs go dormant. I am devastated that they just tore out a 20+ year old Cala Lily plant that produces an abundance of the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen! I confronted the workers, Luis & Alberto, and their response was "OH! WELL!

I THOUGHT IT WAS DEAD" - are you freaking kidding me? I literally want to cry right now and their nonchalant sentiments only increased the sting. An honest mistake is one thing but blatant disregard for an obviously upset home owner is unacceptable! These people are total idiots and I strongly advise people to avoid them until/unless they begin employing competent workers with a keen understanding of their profession/trade!

One of the best companies for any tree needs. I used them to cut down my tree in the front and was so impressed by there professionalism I referred them to cut my parents trees as well as there neighbors. I'm also using them again to grind down an old existing stump in the front yard. Ask for AJ he is a man of his word. Its sad the ignorant people giving a company one star because of a leaf blower (Theresa W). Next time close your window! If you use them you wont be disappointed.

They were using gas powered leaf blowers outside my condo for over 45 minutes. The fumes filled my house. Next time I will call the police because I found out the law is that those horrible loud blowers cannot be used within 500 feet of the front door of your home.
