Home Services reviews in Manor, Texas

The team at Live Oak Studios saved our project! We went through 3 other landscapers who gave us the run around and we were feeling pretty defeated, but Manny and his team stepped in and made our landscape dreams come to life! Their whole team is friendly, professional, and highly skilled. And they were awesome at coming up with clever solutions for our small property challenges. And, best of all, we are over the moon with the results of their work! We finally have the oasis we dreamed of. We cannot recommend them highly enough!

My wife and I had Live Oak Studio out to extend our patio in preparation for a party. Not only were they able to complete the patio in time but it looked great! We love the extra usable space we have for enjoying our backyard.

There’s nothing like having Manny and Jonathan and their team make beauty and happiness out of your landscaping. I am a longtime customer and the attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond is hard to find these days. But Live Oak Studio always over delivers. Their plants always do so well and they have solutions for every yard issue. I have plants they installed that last season after season because they know what does well and where. And they don’t start a project and then disappear for a few days. They are reliable and consistent. They are absolute pros and exceeded expectations again.

We had an absolutely amazing experience with Live Oak Studio. From design plans to implementation we were always impressed. Manny and his team were on time, professional, communicative, and their work was creative and of great quality. Everyday we were impressed with how hard they worked rain or shine. They cleaned up every single day and never left a mess as they worked to build our deck and implement the landscape plan. They responded quickly to texts/calls and Ruben did a great job managing the onsite team and any last minute questions or concerns we had throughout the day. Highly recommend going with Live Oak Studio!

I cannot begin to say enough good things about Live Oak Studio. Manny and Andrew truly care about executing your vision and providing you with an outdoor space that is unique, functional, and visually appealing. Manny has an incredible eye for design and his love and passion for the Central Texas landscape is evident in everything he does. Live Oak's communication is top notch and they have always been immediately responsive to any quesiton we've had. The team who worked on our property was very respectful and made sure to keep our yard safe for our young children throughout the process. It was a pleasure working with Live Oak and we look forward to continuing to use them to remake the rest of our yard in the future.

Manny and his team do an amazing job. From the moment of your first meeting, to the impressive mock up of your future yard, he is both informative and supportive through the ideation and planning phases. When it comes to completing the job, he is a true professional with incredibly high quality work that he stands by. I will never work with another landscape architect again and look forward to future projects with Manny and the Live Oak team. Thank you!!!!

Manny and his team are absolutely AMAZING. From beginning to end this process has been seamless and professional. They made it almost too easy!
The crew worked tirelessly for several weeks on our back yard renovation. They were always on time, extremely polite and hardworking. Their was always a Forman on site working all day. In addition, every morning Manny or his second in command, Jonathan would arrive for a quality check on the previous days work, to give further instructions, and to problemsolve any issues.
The quality we received in workmanship was outstanding. Their is not a screw out of place or a stone unpolished.
This is a well organized, master craftsmen company. I absolutely plan to recommend them to all my friends and family.

We really hit a home run with Live Oak. They took an ugly duckling and turned it into a modern looking swan. We had a cracked patio slab and sidewalk. It's now an easily maintained composite deck and pavers. We are enjoying this so much more now. The design team and crew were all so helpful and professional. Everything looks so much better than we ever imagined. I've attached before and after pictures.

Manny and Jonathan were great to work with. From the design process to the build, everything went seamlessly. They started exactly when they said they would. They were able to modernize our front yard while still keeping a traditional look. I would highly recommend Live Oak Studio without reservation.

Manny is incredible to work with! His design plans are extremely detailed and more importantly hes on site from start to finish making sure everything goes according to plan. We love working with Live Oak Studio!

I am so glad that I decided to work with Manny and his group to transform my backyard from something ugly and hardly usable into a beautiful and relaxing outdoor space. I feel as though my home grew in size because of the seamless transition between indoor and outdoor space. Manny has an artist's eye and a horticulturalist's knowledge, and working with him has been a pleasure. I would definitely recommend Live Oak Studio to friends and family seeking to enhance an outdoor space.

From out of the gates, Manny and his team were a pleasure to work with. We are on almost an acre of land and wanted to transform our backyard into something we'd enjoy using daily. We started out working with them on an overall design (playscape, lighting, new plantings and irrigation, cabana, hot tub, pool, new masonry, etc.) and came up with a phased approach. For the first phase we did new pathways, lighting, plantings, an expanded firepit area, playscape and hot tub pad. Live Oak Studios came in with a detailed estimate, where we were able to fine tune the first phase implementation to fit our budget, and got it scheduled. They then diligently went to work, making it a reality. They were really good at listening to all the finer details, communication throughout was excellent, the workmanship was top-notch, and the project came in on budget. I also found they were very flexible with scheduling and jumped on any issues that arose. We absolutely love the work they've done so far, and look forward to working with them on the next phase!

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Live Oak Studio from start to finish. We made a sizable investment in our backyard design, and Andrew, Manny and the entire team were extraordinary on every level. We are so pleased with the finished product! Highly recommended.

Great price for the Elgin area! Owners are friendly, knowledgeable, & local. Beautiful work. Finished the job & cleanup in a little over an hour.

This is the second time I used Gladiator Tree Experts. The first time I had them grind down three tree stumps left over by the 2021 storm. Today they came and planted a 30gal. Monterey Oak tree in the front yard to replace the Ash tree I lost to the storm. Cleaned out and refreshed one of my garden beds and added 2 knockout roses for me. Hauled off several volunteer tress that I had cut down but didn't have time to clean up myself. They were surprisingly quick and did an excellent job. I have already made arrangements for them to plant another Monterey Oak for the back yard. My neighbor hired them to remove her Ash tree after seeing the work they did. Daniel offers great pricing with excellent service. Give them a call.

They trimmed our trees in Elgin. They are the best tree services in town! Left the area clean and very friendly! (Also very reasonable price)

Gladiator has done work for me at my home in Georgetown, Texas—removing a dead tree & trimming an overgrown tree. They responded promptly and their work was excellent, exactly what I needed to have done.

We really enjoyed working with Daniel and Gloria. They are a professional, fair, and just genuinely good people! They trimmed our oak tree and it looks beautiful. They took particular care to also clean up branches and fallen leaves. I highly recommend them.

Daniel and Gloria at Gladiator tree experts have got to be the hardest working and most honest people in the business .
After working a full day yesterday ,they delivered and planted a 7 foot holly bush
At our house and didn’t finish until dark.
They could have waited until today, but
The wanted to keep their promise of delivering it yesterday. After planting it
They heavily mulched it, dove two steel rods
For support , cleaned up and watered in
The bush.
We couldn’t be happier with the quality
On the bush, the fair price, and their work
Ethic.
I highly recommend Gladiator Tree experts
For your landscaping needs.

Gladiator Tree Experts provided a great service. The communication was pleasant and respectful throughout the process. Gladiator removed an old pine tree from.our property and provided safety trimming for the other large tree on the property. I asked if they provide payment plans and they were very helpful in setting up payment for the work completed. I will definitely be calling them again to complete additional tree service needed on our property. I recommend contacting them for a free estimate and discuss payment options.

These guys were great. I asked for a quote and got a good price. After taking a look at the tree and giving me options, they said they could do it right then. Being on a fixed income, I told them I wouldn't have money until the beginning of the next month. They were still willing to do the work and not collect for a few days after job was completed. They seem like a small ma and pa type of business and I'm happy to give them my business. Also the work was fast and no issues with the tree being removed.
