Five star review
Professional and Responsive. Had a small patch of sod placed. They were fast, efficient and able to work to our tight schedule. The project management, customer service, and the installation team were all fantastic. Highly recommended and we will use them again in the future.

I highly recommend Gardenzilla. The team is very professional and have a strong work ethic. We needed to install new sod in our back yard this spring and they took special care to do it right, and came back a couple of times to check on the work. They are reliable in the services they provide and their owner, Mike, is really a great guy to work with.
