We hired Gail Willey to do a major remodel of our backyard that included significant demolition, all new pavers, bar/fireplace, and new landscaping/irrigation. Justin and his crew were wonderful to work with. They were on time, professional, and creative in coming up with solutions for a project like this. I would strongly recommend Gail Willey if you are considering them for a project. A big thumbs up and 5 stars!

Amazing. We had a very challenging job of installing large privacy trees in a difficult to access part of our property. Their determination, professionalism, friendliness and incredible results will make me a loyal customer without a doubt. Thank you Jeff!

I have worked with many different people from this company for about 10 years now. Everyone is extremely friendly, professional, and reliable. The quality of trees have always been top quality and long lasting. I highly recommend this company and will continue using them in the future.

Gail Willey Landscaping has done a superb job on the completer renovation of our front yard! They took out old damaged concrete and installed approximately 5000 feet of pavers as well as xeriscaped our front yard. It looks just gorgeous and we could not be happier! This team is first class with excellent attention to detail. They completed this project in about a month and we could not be happier. We highly recommend them! I can't figure out how to add pictures to this or I would:

Gail Willey did a huge paving project for me and I couldn't be more pleased. Brian was delightful to work with and was very open to change in his design suggestions; the workers themselves were polite and pleasant to engage with. Nelson came and did follow up to make sure the drip/irrigation system was working properly.?Things went according to plan, budget and desires! I highly recommend Gail Willey for any project you may have.

We were referred to Gail Willey Landscaping for a flooring project and a rep came out to our home to discuss the project and he said he would get back to us with an estimate. We NEVER heard back from him. We left two follow up voice mails and NEVER heard back. This is unacceptable and not professional. Do not recommend this company.

Gail Willey did a wonderful job landscaping our yard. Everyone we dealt with was professional, friendly, hardworking, and provided us with quality work. They also understood how to navigate the HOA rules. I would highly recommend this firm.

Gail Willey installed more than 20 large pine trees for us. A year later they are all healthy. The operators are courteous, efficient and professional. I would recommend them to anyone.

Critical: Quality Very disappointed with the quality of work. Bait and switch. Almost felt like they were stealing from me. Very rude on the telephone. untrustworthy would be the best to describe the company and employees. Service: Tile replacement

Was very disappointed with the quality of work. I was lied to and cheated out of money by an employee named Parker Willey. I would not recommend their services until they make right of my situation. Just terrible people and service.

Our backyard was just dirt since we bought a new build. Gail Willey was so great to work with. Greg did our design on site the day he came to give us our quote and discuss what we wanted. I have to admit, because he stayed and sketched up our design that day, that was a huge plus for us and ultimately helped us decide to work with him over another company.

We felt respected and heard throughout the whole process which was not the case with the other two meetings we had set up with other companies. Greg was fantastic about returning emails and text messages quickly. We subtracted and added many things throughout our project and they were always on top of it. The team was so friendly and such hard workers, we were so impressed every day with their progress. Greg did a walk through with us once it was completed and we hope to be using them for yard maintenance as well. I would absolutely recommend them. We are so happy with the end result of our project and have already spent so much time I. Our new outdoor space!

This company did my entire backyard and I couldn't be more pleased. Brian and Nelson are wonderful to work with. The crews are polite, work hard, and do a fabulous job. I'm looking forward to warmer weather so I can fully enjoy my yard. I highly recommend them.

The team from Gail Willey did an outstanding job on our front years. We have people stopping in front of our house to take pictures and ask who did the work. Even after the job was completed, John Willey will always return calls or emails. When they said they want us pleased with their work they mean

John and his team were great to work with. They were always on time. All were professional and great to interact with. Our yard was just bare mud devoid of trees or boulders. They showed up at 8:30 and by 1:30 we had 2 beautiful ponderosa pines. One 20 foot and one 26 feet. They installed 13 tons of beautiful granite boulders. They yard was beautiful.

It looked so natural and like it had been there forever. His price was beyond fair. We are so impressed with this company I feel very comfortable recommending him to anyone who needs professional landscaping

I had 4 landscaping companies come out to look at my backyard which was a new project in a new house we recently bought. Thomas was the designer that met with me on our initial consultation, and without question I decided to go with Gail Willey. I knew Thomas had some great ideas for our yard, and was very knowledgeable. Thomas made a great design and they handled all the HOA and permitting process. Andrew then oversaw the project, and the crew that handled the project were great.

They worked very hard everyday, were very personable and did a great job. They were excellent at their knowledge of what they were doing and the process went extremely well with no problems at any time. I would recommend them for any landscaping project!

Gail Willey landscaping installed Many full grown ever green trees (ponderosa) on my property along with irrigation and drip system (easy to operate). The trees are absolutely stunning and great quality. The colors are very vibrant and bring the property to life. I plan on using Gail Willey landscaping for future projects because I know I can trust their work and it will be done efficiently. I highly Recommend if your looking for quality work.

I really dislike it when a business forces me into putting a negative Review onto Yelp as I prefer to post the glowing Yelp Reviews. I am downgrading my Review to 1-Star based on the public contact I received here on Yelp from Johnathon W of this company. First, if Johnathon W is a Veteran, I say to Johnathon W, Welcome Home and thank you, for your Service.

Since Johnathon W failed to contact me, as I am clearly identified here on Yelp as a Veteran, with a" Welcome Home and Thank you, for your Service" to me, which is a violation of The Veterans Creed, that is clearly a red flag that reasonably makes it appear Johnathon W is more than likely not a Veteran. Second, Johnathon W failed to state just exactly what or how much his company's Veterans Discount is.

Why is that? What's the big secret? People and businesses who have "utmost respect for those who have served our country" as Johnathon W boasts here in his contact to me here have their Veterans Discount and how much it is prominently displayed in their advertising and contacts with Veterans. When any business has a Military and Veterans Discount, the impression of that business' brand improves not only with Active Duty and Veterans it also improves with customers who aren't Active Duty or who aren't Veterans. Having an Active Duty and Veterans Discount is clearly an easy and inexpensive way, and a Patriot way, for any business to create a positive impression of the business among people in and outside of the Military Community.

Over and over 95% of current and past Military Personnel and their families say that they notice when companies are "Military-Friendly" or "Veteran-Friendly" and that an Active Duty and Veteran Discount is what gives an immediate and positive first impression to any business. That also means 95% of current and past Military Personnel and their families notice when companies are not "Military-Friendly" "Veteran-Friendly" and when companies don't have an Active Duty and Veteran Discount and that gives an immediate and negative first impression to any business.

A Veterans Discount is particularly important to all Disabled Veterans unable to be employed as they are on a very small and fixed income for life. A Veterans Discount provides a resource to ensure Active Duty who are a rare.04% of the population, and Veterans, who are a rare 7% of the population, the opportunity to participate in the American Dream their sacrifices have made possible. Third, Johnathon W did clearly contact me here yet publicly writes the lie, "you have requested that we do not contact you on Yelp." That is a lie as I have not made any such request.

If I had made such a request, Johnathon W wouldn't have been able to contact me here as he has so clearly done and which I am responding to. Fourth, Johnathon W's warranty comment is bizarre. I was clearly attempting to find out what this company's labor and materials warranty is before I hired them as that is my policy with any contractor I am interviewing to hire and obtain a bid from.

I never hire anyone only to be informed after the work has been done what the labor and materials warranty is. That is just plain silly of a company and highly suspect to have a policy to only let me know what their warranty is after their work is completed. I asked Thomas Sloniker Chief Estimator / Designer / Project Manager of this company about this company's labor and materials warranty.

I never got a response. Fifth, clearly this Johnathon W, whose position with this company is not identified in his contact back to me here, doesn't know Thomas Sloniker Chief Estimator / Designer / Project Manager which is who made the appointment with me, came out to the property, but then never provided me a bid. Sixth, we Veterans are an extraordinarily rare 7% of the population and we female Veterans are an even rarer percentage at 1/2 of one percent (0.05%) of the population.

In public I always wear my Disabled Veterans hat or cap and a DAV (Disabled American Veterans) blouse. When cold I wear my military jacket with Disabled Veteran on it. To verify my military service and that I am a 100% military service connected disabled Veteran I am always prepared to show my U.S. Department of Defense id as well as my U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Service-Connected is. I asked Thomas Sloniker Chief Estimator / Designer / Project Manager of this company about a Veterans Discount. I never got a response.

So back in November of 2018 I contacted them, and left a message asking for one of their landscapers to get back to me. Reception staff was nice, but I had to call again a couple weeks later and left another message, which took a couple days for them to get back to me. Close to the end of December I finally had someone come out and take a look at our backyard.

The gentleman practically laughed at me when I said we had friends who had backyards of similar a similar size done for between $20k and $30k and didn't want to believe that our backyard (14,000 sq ft lot with a large backyard) could be landscaped for that amount, but said he was going to be out of town for a week or two and would get back to me with an estimate and design by the middle of January.

We didn't want anything fancy. Just a lot of grass, a handful of nice shade trees, a dog run, and some planter areas with rose bushes and whatnot. In the meantime, 3 other landscaping companies gave us bids that were all between $20k and $30k, and had excellent designs. Gail Willey never did get back to me, and between the gentleman's general lack of enthusiasm for the scope of our job, and me being stubborn and unwilling to call them a 3rd time and chase them to take my money, I never did find out what their bid and design would be, if they even generated one for us. Based on the sounds of other reviews, my experience isn't atypical. It's great for them that business is apparently that they can blow off the jobs that are under $30k. But if you have a simple job, and aren't planning on anything fancy, over the top, and really expensive, you'll probably get blown off too.

Just completed my 2nd major home improvement project with Gail Willey Landscaping and both went off like clock-work. The first involved extensive trenching for a French Drain on 3 sides of my house coupled with an extensive retaining wall of cinder block. The 2nd. involved installation of a Patio enlargement using Pavers as well as widening the 3 car driveway to a 4 car driveway also using Pavers + consolidating the gutter downspout drains into a solid drain leading out to the street.

Both of these projects were carried out without a hitch or a glitch. Severo, as Project Manager, oversaw the entire process and did an amazing job. When you see the Willey Crew at work, no one is leaning on a shovel and no one is idle; they seem to work in unison with no wasted time.which equates to me not wasting money. I cannot say enough positive things about Gail Willeys approach to doing business and there is no better testimony to that than the long term employment enjoyed by many of his Managers/Supervisors. If you want it done right the first time and you want it done on time, then you need to hire Gail Willey Landscaping.they are the best. /s/ Tom G.

I am beyond pleased with Gail Willey Landscaping. Brian Dean planned my landscape install and he was a pleasure to work with. The team is outstanding. I received excellent service and am very pleased with my yard. 3 years later when I call, I still get Brian on the phone whenever I have questions. I cannot overstate how nice the personal relationships they build with you are.

Its so nice to have service and a company that treat you like a valued client instead of a one and done shopper. Will certainly use Brian and Gail Willey for our next landscaping.

I have never enjoyed a landscaping project as much as I have working with the Gail Willey Landscaping team. Professional from start to finish. The team has been working at Gail Willey Landscaping a very long time and it proved to be one of the many reasons my yard turned out beautiful. The designer/landscape architect hit it out of the ball park. Taking a very small space and making it feel like a resort.

They provided a beautiful color rendering that help me envision the space transformed. Thomas whom was my first point of contact was low pressure and confident I would be happy with the decision to hire Gail Willey Landscaping to accomplish my goal and budget. The team showed up everyday worked hard and tidied up st the end of a long day. The pavers design and execution was phenomenal. The clean up at the end was fantastic. Follow through was spot on. I would highly recommend Gail Willey if you want a first class experience.

Had a great experience with the whole process from start to finish. Great people, hard working, great attention to detail. Would recommend to anyone looking for quality design/work/service. Even after the job was done I have called back with questions and given expert advice.

Just finished our second job with Gail Willey Landscaping so I think it's time for a Yelp review. Our landscape designer, Brian, patiently listened to what we were looking for and answered all our questions, before, during and after the job. He even came out with a broken leg.that's dedication! Nestor, the foreman, and his crew arrived on time every morning, worked tirelessly throughout the day and left our yard spotless each evening.

On top of that, they transformed a terrible eyesore in our front yard into a gorgeous natural creek bed. Amazing! It should be noted that I rarely leave five star reviews, but Gail Willey earned it. Thank you and our highest recommendation!

Gail Willey Landscaping (GWL) built our back yard water feature 4 years ago (August, 2011). We are very happy with the outcome and the functionality of the entire project. We had 3 small concrete ponds that were deteriorating and needed to be removed/replaced. GWL arrived at our house the day after our initial contact; we discussed the project and our budget; and they returned with sketches and a proposal within a few days.

After we agreed to the project, they were on the job in less than 3 weeks. The crew was on site from beginning to end. Once, during the middle of the project, Gail recommended a change in the location of the upper waterfall to put it in the same visual field as the lower waterfall and pond. This demonstrated that he was fully committed to our project.

The change had no impact on the cost and it greatly improved the outcome. Project completion was timely and the finish was excellent. Every member of the crew was pleasant and professional. After 4 years of constant use, I can say that the design is functional and durable and I would not change anything. The design allows for efficient management of algae growth and overall the project is trouble free. I would definitely recommend Gail Willey Landscaping to friends and will use them again if I decide to do more.

We had them remove two trees and a Trex patio and install a larger paver patio with a walkway. It turned out beautifully and Nelson and the crew were great, showed up everyday on time and left the area clean daily. Got some design advice from at Thomas at the get go which brought the vision we had of our backyard to life. I'd hire them again.

I had a large driveway and porch re-done in pavers and it looks great. They also did some landscaping as well which really finished the look. Tom with Gail Willey was quick to return calls and attentive to any concerns I had on the process. The quality of the work was excellent and I would highly recommend them.

I contacted them via telephone to request someone come out and bid a new patio I was planning. The reception staff was very friendly. I received a call the next day from a "Landscape Architect" who explained he had viewed my property on Google Earth, but was unable to see my backyard due to the trees. I was told he would need more information about my project to see if it would even "be worth it" for him to come out and bid. Wow, I guess I was under the impression they provided services to residential properties, guess I was wrong.

After explaining the area in question was over 1000 sq. ft. with a fire pit, and stairs he stated in a bored tone. "it sounded like it would be worth it" -- I went ahead and set up an appointment that would allow him to grace me with his presence but called back and cancelled. I called a competitor and awarded them the project: $22,000.00. I'm not sure what "worth it" is but in my book my budget was respectable. First impressions!

I would not hire them again for any landscaping project and would recomend them to anyone else. Took much longer than expected and did not inform about any cost over runs. The owner would undo what the worker laid out and then want to charge more. It was a very unpleasant landscape project.
