Ficus hedges needed trimming. Job was more difficult than originally assumed and therefore cost more but was done properly. Took a lot of work but pleased with final outcome.

I have two Bismarck palm trees that were in need of trimming. Flavio and his crew showed up during a very bad rain storm. They waited it out and then proceeded to do an excellent job. The trees look great. Definitely will have him back.

I contacted Flavio and his team on Wednesday due to a Palm needing removal (lightning strike). He immediately came out to assess the property and gave me a fair price for removal. Today (3 days later) they not only removed the dead tree, but they left my entire yard looking brand new. I would highly recommend Flavio and his team.

The promptness of the walkthrough was unexpected. They were professional, within $500 dollars of the lowest and highest bidder. They made comments that I was impressed with concerning they type of sod that should be placed to assure thick healthy turf. They agreed that I needed to place a planter made of railroad ties in front of my new fence on the west side of my home and told me they would find them and the full-sized sea grape trees that I wanted planted in the planter to compliment the already mature sea grape trees that I had next to this area. The old sod was removed and replaced by three competent workers in only 2-days. The new sod was delivered and placed in an additional 2-day period. I received instructions how to water and how often for 25-days prior to the first cutting of the new sod. We couldn't be more pleased with the replacement sod. It is beautiful and they keep it cut at about 4-inches which is perfect. The railroad ties were delivered as well as the mature sea grape trees. I was instructed to allow the new sea grape trees to adjust to the new environment and light for approximately 3-weeks. This being done, they placed the new railroad tie planter and the new sea grape trees. We are so happy with the result. This project took approximately 4-6 week but the wait was well worth it. The project was done very professionally placing very large trees in a very small area. We will continue to use Green Genesis for all our landscaping needs. The friendly, insightful, knowledgeable owner and his very competent crew are the best we have ever used. We will continue to use Green Genesis because we trust their judgment and experience.

Flavio has done several jobs for us the past two years. We also use him for lawn maintenance. His is passionate about plants and has a great sense of humor. He adjusts the service based on the rain and keeps our yard in great condition. He is also great with our dogs and keeps the gate closed so they won't get out.

It went really well. And we have now contracted with them for regular service so that I don't kill the lawn again. ;)

The crew did a very nice job.  They used ladders to climb the tree, rather than using climbing spikes which can damage the trees.  They cut carefully using manual saws and machetes.  Rather than let the debris fall in the pool, they laid a tarp over the water to collect it.  I've had several providers do this job before and this is the best work I've seen yet.  The owner and crew are extremely polite and very easy to get along with.  Highly recommended. <br>

I hired Green Genesis Landscaping to install a new sprinkler system and grass at my property for the amount of $5140.00 on 05/06/2016. This was the worse purchase I have ever made. The name of the owner of Green Genesis Landscaping is Flavio Amador was the person I dealt with from start to finish. He is most dishonest unprofessional person I have ever had to do business with. Not only was he disrespectful to me, he was also very rude to my neighbors. Flavio started working on the house on May 6 and delivered the grass on May 7th. There was about 6 pallets grass delivered. When he delivered the grass I thought the grass looked a bit dead but Flavio assured me the grass was fresh and alive. He left the grass overnight as he worked on the sprinkler system and prepping the land then started installing the grass the next day on May 8th. The grass was completely installed by May 9th. He installed grass in areas I told him not to and ripped up plants replacing them with grass where I asked him not to. He then wanted to charge me for that extra pull pallet of grass even though I asked him not to and that there was about 60% of the grass from that pallet still left over which he took with him. Pay attention to this part of the story because you will see why he did this later on. Upon completion of the grass it still did not look as green as I expected but he assured me the grass will get much greener as time passed in a week. On May 11th I started noticing the grass was actually getting worse and dying before my eyes and turning brown in most areas. I alerted Flavio who stated he would look right into it. He contacted the person by the name of Donald Purdue who installed the sprinklers. Unknown to me at the time Donald did not work for Green Genesis Landscaping, he was sub contracted by Green Genesis Landscaping to complete the sprinkler installation work. It was not until I starting informing him about the grass dying that this information was shared to me. At this point Flavio was still assuring me that he has used Donald to install sprinklers many times and he assured me that the problem will be fixed. Things took a turn for the worse on May 13th when the grass completely died in 80% of the areas on my property that grass was installed. Flavio then began blaming the problem on Donald Purdue who did the Sprinkler installation claiming the sprinklers were not working correctly and Donald Purdue began blaming Flavio stated that he installed bad sod and neglected the grass for too long without watering it. I explained to Flavio that I hired and paid ONLY his company, Green Genesis Landscaping. If he hired someone else without my knowledge he must take ownership to fix the issue because that person was not hired by me nor am I paying them. Flavio continued to play the blame game back and forth with Donald and even placed me in the middle of it. He told me to contact Donald to resolve the issue several times. In an effort to get the issue resolved I contacted Donald who initially seem as if he was willing to help. He stated to give the grass a 3 more days and with water it will start to grow back green. He also assured me that if the grass does not grow back he will help to replace the grass. On May 16th I noticed the grass has not improved much and contacted both Flavio and Donald. Donald’s tone now changed once I informed him that the grass has made very minimal improvement. He began being very dismissive, rude and told he will not do anything to replace the grass because it is not his fault. I contacted Flavio to let him know this and he suggested some strange method of giving me money that is owed to Donald for another customer to hold as ransom for Donald to come and fix the grass because it was his fault. This is how low and ridiculous Flavio way of doing business was. I reiterated that I am his customer and I should not have to get involved with his subcontract or play these kind of games. I went back and forth with Flavio & Donald for about over week pleading and begging him to come and repair the grass. I even tried to make a deal with them to only repair certain portions of the grass and give me one of the two monthly maintenance he promised me in the initial agreement. After 2 week about 30% of the damaged grass started to grow back so I was willing to try and settle the dispute in his favor if he could just help me repair the key areas in the front and the side of the house. Initially 80% of the grass needed to be replaced, not only about 50% needed to be replaced and I was willing to settle for 25% of the 50% of the damaged grass to be replaced. Finally after much begging and pleading Flavio returned to repair the damaged grass. I kid you not he only replaced 5% of the damaged grass doing spot treatments with grass he told me he has left over from another job (This explains why he was trying to charge me for an extra pallet of grass on the original job). I was furious that I made a deal with him and he could not follow thru. I continued to reach out to him to try and get him to come back and fix the job and he was unresponsive. I also tried reaching out to Donald and he stated he would come by to either replace the grass or add fertilizer to help it grow and he never did. I was still left with 45% of my grass being brown and in terrible shape & additional areas started to die again as well for some reason. On May 30th I made an amazing discovery. The sprinklers were supposed to water for twice a day for 30 minutes per zone and there are 4 zone. The sprinklers came were supposed to come one at 9pm and again at 3am for a total time of 4 hours per day. The night time watering was recommended by Flavio and Donald because it is better to water when the sun is not out. This was supposed to happen for a week when the new sod is installed and them the times would be decreased significantly after that. Instead what I discovered was that this was NOT taking place. Instead the sprinklers were running back to back cycles at 9pm and again at 3am. Meaning the water was being ran for 8 hours per day! This has apparently going on for a long time however I did not notice it because I do not reside in the property at night. I happened to discovered it while I was there late one night on May 30th and alerted Flavio and Donald. Donald was nonresponsive and it was not until over 24 hours later that Flavio got Donald to stop this from happen. Flavio and Donald were the only ones that used programmed and operated the sprinkers. Flavio and Donald decided it would be a good idea to go behind my back and overwater the grass for 8 hours per day for weeks in hopes that this would make the grass grow back. They used this tactic in hopes that with time gained by stalling and overwatering grass that my problem would go away. But it did not had most of the grass did not grow back and an additional 30% of the grass began to grow fungus and started dying. I expressed my level of disbelief at all the events that took place with Flavio on June 3rd and let him know that I would be seeking action against his for the grass and overuse of water without my consent. Flavio reached back out to me on that day and gave me a long apology and explanation for why all this took place. He explained to me that his company is in debt and burrows money from a bank to survive. He told me that he acknowledge that he messed up and want to fix the entire property but his company does not have the money to do so. He beg for forgiveness and more time and stated that he will be back out to fix the problem on June 8th as he is expecting money which he will put toward fixing my property completed. Flavio never showed up and became unresponsive. I gave up on getting Flavio to repair the grass and decided to hire someone else to repair my dead grass and grass that has fungus caused by overwatering. So far I have spent almost $1600 with more charges left to come to repair and replace the grass. On June 15th I received my water bill. It was dated from 5/6/2016 – 6/8/2016 in the amount of $1548.64. There is no one living at the property so 99% of that bill was a result of the water being ran for 8

"To whom it may concern, your investment home and the work we did at the property is doing well and I have the pictures to prove that the work done at the property was successful. Can you please stop calling me and texting me regarding this matter? Calling and texting at 11:30 at night is unprofessional not to mention that is not time to conduct any business. We gave you free sod, free mulch and other free services. Thank you so much for your business hope everything goes well with the sale of this property you bought from this family in distress and we appreciate what you did."

Green Genesis had a crew of several men at my house for one and a half days.  They removed many overgrown palm trees and ground down the stumps.  They cleaned everything afterwards.  A water pipe was accidentally hit while grinding the stumps and Green Genesis promptly took care of the problem.  They were very professional and I would use them again. <br />

Very professional job. Everything done with great attention to detail. Easy to work with. Returned calls promptly, gave a price and showed up as scheduled. Did not quit until job was complete (2 days). We are very pleased with the results. Still suffering from sticker shock in FL, so the price seemed fair, but expensive. There was a lot of hard work done. <br />

Flavio was a pleasure to work with. He and his crew were on time and got the work done in a reasonable amount of time. They were very careful to ask questions where not sure what I wanted. They left everything neat and clean and did a great job. They even threw in a few extras, like some rock they had from another job, and chopped up an old tree root that was causing problems.

Flavio was extremely easy to work with and provided plenty of reasonable suggestions for further improvements. I am extremely satisfied with the work performed and plan to use his services again in the near future. His crew was professional and worked in an efficient manner. Services were timely and there were no hidden fees. I could not have asked for a better experience. <br />

I met Flavio to discuss the plan.  He followed-up with an emailed proposal.  I sent adjustments and he scheduled for Friday of the same week. <br /> I anticipate that he'd arrive early, but he was delayed until about 10:00 am due to trouble with his trailer.  His crew got right to work removing the trees.  They were careful to minimize damage and left everything looking perfect. <br /> Flavio and his crew demonstrated their knowledge of our trees, shrubs, and other plants.  I'd definitely hire them again. <br />

When we first contacted Flavio, he got back to us right away. Within a couple of days he came out to look at the yard and give us a quote on keeping it maintained monthly. Upon arrival at our home, he was very nice and straightforward. We discussed what we expected out of a lawn care company and he was very willing to fulfill our lawn care needs. He gave us an extremely fair quote for monthly service in which he would come twice a month in the winter and three times a month in the summer in order to keep our lawn in tip top shape. The first time his crew came, it wasn't exactly what we wanted (not all the debris was cleaned up off the ground). However, we called Flavio and told him we were unhappy and he came out the same day to check his guys work. He was not rude or confrontational at all. On the contrary, he was eager to have his guys come back out and pick up the rest of the debris in order to make us completely satisfied with the job. He had his crew come back the next week and they did a great and thorough job! Our yard was a mess and he decided to not charge us an initial clean up charge but instead have his crew work on different sections of our yard little by little in order to get everything neat and tidy without the extra cost to us. Not only has he provided nice and prompt service, he also let us borrow a pump so that we could empty an old pond we have on the property so that he could come back and fill it in for us later. Overall, we have been very pleased with Flavio's service. <br />
