Maverick Lawn Service

Correct Steven is a SCAMMER!! This person Steven Hernandez with Maverick Lawn Service, who offices out of 934 SW 38 St in San Antonio, is a SCAM artist. He has robbed and taken advantage of several hardworking people in our community and appears to prey on the elderly community. Please see the previous reviews posted here. Unfortunately, I’m sure this is a small fraction of the people Steven has robbed. He took $1250 on July 28, 2022 from my 73 year old father, who is a veteran on a fixed income, to purchase supplies for a driveway repair. Once Steven received the $1250 he was never to be seen or heard from again. Steven never began the job agreed upon, but was kind enough to provide an invoice which reflected the $1250 Steven received. We have made multiple attempts to contact this individual via phone calls and emails but no reply. We are in the process of filing a Police Report, reporting to the State Licensing Board, sharing with the media and filing a claim with Small Claims Court. I find it concerning, that such a fraudulent individual is able to utilize this platform to swindle additional trusting consumers. Please BEWARE!!

The flower beds look good, but rocks and other materials were strewn on the back yard. Clean up was fair. The top soil in the garden had a lot of stones in it. My wife wonders about the effectiveness of the bed liner because of the number of weeds in the beds.

Scam Artist. Steven and I agreed to sod my front lawn for a total of $4,000. He requested $3,300.00 up front to purchase materials and said they would begin the project within a week. Bottom Line: He rescheduled our project four times for various reasons before shutting down his phone. He does not answer, nor has he tried to reach me in the last two weeks to discuss my project. I sent a text informing him that I would file suit in small claims court for the $3,300.00 he took from us. Steven claims to be a veteran per his web site; however, as a 30-year veteran myself, I have never served with any service member who displays lower ethical values. He's merely an immoral scam artist in my opinion.

Beware! We've been scammed. Job was to begin May 3, 2022. Steven stated equipment issues and rescheduled for May 7. Then cancelled due to rain and rescheduled for a later time. He has not returned 6 calls and 2 texts. No work. No communication. And has $2900 of our hard earned money.

It started out like they were on the same page , understanding what I wanted. They were slow to get on the job & complete the work. I believe they took my job before they could commit the amount of time needed to do a good job. I live on a golf course & wanted to freshen up my flower beds with some new topsoil & flowers because I could not keep up with the time required for weeding them. This was no problem even added some new stone edging. They did not remove the old soil before putting the weed block down. Therefore there was a deep grade in the beds causing water to run over the stone edging down the driveway. The topsoil was supposed to be enriched, but what it was enriched with was Grass‼️ Just a few days after I had paid them in full the grass started growing through. Steven could not believe it so he came out to see it. In all but one flower bed had grass growing them❗️He agreed all the soil put down needed to be replaced but He had Not returned nor responded to my text nor my emails. This total job has cost nearly $6500‼️ This is Not Right‼️He needs to make this right‼️ I have pictures documenting everything including the water irrigation pipe they broke & the part of stucco on the house they broke & said they would fix. The plants that are dying. He was to come & release the confederate jasmine off the sticks for the ground cover❗️ Nothing has been completed‼️I wish I had Never started this job❗️I was better off before❗️

Steven was very nice and easy to work with. He understood exactly what I wanted. He made a few suggestions but did not try to pressure me to do more. The work was done in a timely manner and done well. He also answered all my questions as well as well as giving me guidance in maintaining the yard. Steven followed up with me the next day to verify that everything was good.

Excellent, provided sod and gravel exactly as requested and paid for.

Work was done very professionally and they were very thorough until completion of the project. They do followups afterwards to make sure that the new grass does well and looks great.

I had an unimproved lot that needed to get down to code quickly. I had called on a Friday late and he returned my call promptly. I was impressed with his straightforward information letting me know the process and procedure that would be done. Within 24hrs he had done an estimate and provided me with quotes (3) on the extent of the work depending on the degree of cleanup. Due to weather concerns and code issues he took care of the job much quicker than I had expected. I reviewed the lot and found it done to what I had expected for the agreed upon contract. I was impressed by the whole process and would not hesitate to have them do this type of work or more.

The Maverick Lawn Service did an outstanding job with my landscaping project They were very professional and courteous. The quality of work preformed was exceptional. I plan to hire them as again to for my landscaping services.

I hired Steven to install St. Augustine in the backyard around the existing patio and pathways made with pavers. I got three quotes; he was the most expensive by far but I decided to go with him thinking it would be better quality work. What a joke! First, there is no mention anywhere on his website about it, but Steven will demand money upfront for whatever will be needed for the work. In my case, he wanted 1/3 of the estimated cost for 4 pallets of sod, topsoil, and equipment rental fees before starting. As far as quality of work? He and his two workers broke 25 pavers along the edge of my patio and in the walkway paths leading to the patio during this installation service. Some pavers were completely shattered and rearranged to try and fit them back in place as best they could. But nothing was said about the damage, which is shady as ****. I just noticed all the broken pavers during the walk-thru at the end of the installation. Only after I pointed out all the damaged pavers did he offer to pay for replacements. But the pavers are no longer made. So now I'm stuck with a bunch of broken pavers to be replaced with....what? I hired him to do a simple grass install because I was too busy to do it myself. But all they did was poor work that resulted in damaged property. And now I am stuck with a brand-new project of spending my time to try and find something similar pavers to replace what they broke. And of course, he just tried to shrug it off as no big deal and wanted payment in full immediately. This ******* can't even lay sod without damaging your existing property. The sod squares themself looked hurriedly laid down with overlapping corners sticking up all over the place. Just a lousy service all around. Steven's expensive as ****, does terrible work, and is unprofessionally shady as **** when it comes to honesty. I cringe to think what service quality he would provide on more complex landscape projects. Beware!

Steven called us the day after we gave him a check for the work he did & told us that his bank rejected him depositing our check to his bank & he wanted to come & get cash instead or we could put the charges on a credit card via a link he would send us. We told him when he returned our check to us we would then give him the cash. He told us the bank would not give him our check back, got very aggressive & demanding payment. We contacted our bank & they said the check had not been presented for payment by his bank & there would be no issues on payment when check was presented. We're not sure what Steven was trying to pull & a stop payment was issued on the check & he was to come back by our house for his cash less $29 stop payment fee we had to pay.

Steven showed up as scheduled, worked with his workers held a day, but did not complete what was agreed on in the invoice. He refused to remove bushes stumps, or clean the backyard after the work. Worst, some stumps were not removed and hidden by dirt. Deceitful. Im not hiring him again for my next project. Beware of this misrepresentation. I paid for the service because there's no point in arguing when I specified what needs to be done in the beginning and agreed to. Very disappointed! Homeowners beware!

Did not do the job with what he promised. He's in a bit hurry and didn't finished the job and charge me more. The guy is nice but very unprofessional.

Steve and his team kept to the proposed schedule and went above and beyond to accommodate last minute changes. Our project looks amazing!!

Maverick lawn service was very knowledgeable. The project I hired Maverick to do turned out Amazing. I would definitely hire this company again.

Steven and his crew showed upon time, every day and did exactly what was asked of him and his crew. They would stop and ask questions to make sure they were doing what I needed done. In some cases they went above and beyond what I asked of them. Truth be told I had wanted more done, but I couldn't afford it. Steven was patient with me and went over what I could afford. Would I re-hire Maverick Lawn Service? Absolutely!!

Excellent work great communication no complaints

Steve is a pro and bent over backwards to make sure we got want we wanted through various changes we made. He directed his crew efficiently and quickly got the job done even through a few hurdles that popped up. The work was professional and his knowledge of the process was masterful. I can’t wait to work with him again for future projects.

It was fine. They were three of them and they worked all good and I would gonna use them again.

Great company with great work

Steven is the best! I called several landscaping companies and couldn’t get anyone on the phone or to return my call. Steven answered immediately. We talked about what I wanted done and he coordinated everything THE SAME DAY! I couldn’t believe it. He had the sod delivered (after her checked the quality of the grass first) and installed just hours later. He walked us through care of the sod and would send texts to check on the progress of the grass over the next several weeks.He answers every text and phone call within minutes. Every question I had was answered immediately! He set a follow up fertilization 5 weeks later . His prices are just as impressive as his customer service. I highly recommend.

Maverick is very good. Great communication. Arrives on time, does good work and leaves the area clean when done. Great value.

They were hard working and didn't need a lot of instruction which is wonderful. There was expensive cleaning,trimming and weeding. They are coming back in the spring!

Steven and his team are professional, punctual and responsive. My estimate was provided in a timely manner and was very reasonable compared to other bids. I am very pleased with my new grass and look forward to working with Maverick in the future for other landscaping needs!
