What recent reviews say

Yard Goats delivers polished work on driveways, flatwork, and fence installs, and long-term clients praise Edwin and Alicen's responsiveness and honest advice. Recent reviews flag serious gaps: no-shows, weeks without contact, and broken repair commitments that undermine the company's otherwise strong reputation for craftsmanship.

Evidence is limited to review topics; specific masonry services (brick, stone) are not mentioned.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Praised for
  • reliable scheduling and follow-through on repeat work
  • quality craftsmanship on driveways and flatwork
  • responsive management (Edwin, Alicen) on returning clients
  • attentive to detail on yard cleanup
Watch-outs
  • no-shows and reschedules without notice
  • poor phone and email communication when things go wrong
  • warranty promises not honored on fence repairs

Think twice if: first-time customers should document scheduling agreements in writing; recent reviews show no-shows and delayed warranty repairs

Worth knowing

Common questions

Does Yard Goats offer a warranty on fence installation?
The business advertises a lifetime warranty on fence parts and repairs, but recent reviews show delays and non-response when repairs are requested. Get any warranty terms in writing before work begins.
What is the typical timeline for a driveway or flatwork project?
One client reported a week for a custom playscape flatwork area. Timeline varies by scope; ask for a written estimate and completion date.

One five-star review from years ago called the work awesome and professional. A recent one-star complaint described landscaping work that left mud and damage in front of the driveway with no cleanup. Evidence is thin from just two reviews.
