Doan’s Landscaping & Maintenance

Doan is one of the worst service providers I’ve met in a long time. We hired him to install a new fence and it seemed like he cared about the work and was thankful for the opportunity.
On day one of the actual job things started going downhill. The posts to the fence first off weren’t straight, so we asked him to reinstall the posts. Then they weren’t installed to code, being 2 feet deep. The posts range from 16−19″ depending on which one.
We cut him a check for 90% of the job and he complained how little money he’s making from this job, as if it’s my job to maximize his profits. Now he’s threatening to take us to small claims. We told him we aren’t withholding payment, but are requesting that he fix the problems we found like the posts not being deep enough, and that some of the wooden boards are cracked and have holes in it. He just says «forget it» and seemingly walked away from his work.
2 weeks later, at this current moment, the door to the fence that was installed by him is lopsided already and he’s not answering calls.
Just avoid this guy. Work is a joke!

Please stay away from this landscaping service. The owner, Mr. Doan installed the sprinkler system in my front yard, which didn’t meet the city code. These pipes were installed only 3 inches deep under the grass. And the front lawn level is 5 inches above the sidewalk level.
He is lucky that I have not filed a formal complaint against his license yet. It is because I feel sorry for his two assistances who worked for him with petty paid!
I still saved some photos of his lousy work on my front lawn, and can send to anyone who is interested in seeing how bad his job is!

Doan and his crews are hard working and very reasonably priced. We have been using them for two years now and I am very happy with their service and knowledge of drought-​resistance plants. They also installed our sprinkler system.
They are «self starters» as well– if they see something on our property that needs to be fixed or some fallen brush that needs to be taken care of, they will take initiative and get it done.
Would recommend Doan for your property! He’s especially skilled in recommending specific plants that would work for certain areas, be it shaded or on a steep hill to help with soil retention, etc.
