RL Landscaping

RL Landscaping operates out of Abilene, TX and focuses on residential landscaping work across the area. Ricardo runs the crew with his brother and the rest of the staff, taking on jobs for homeowners who need more than basic fixes. They handle plenty of new builds where the original crews left behind weak grass and drainage issues that cause flooding after rain. The team also travels to nearby spots like Clyde for repeat work, sticking with steady upgrades that hold up instead of temporary patches. Their approach centers on real fixes that match the local conditions and keep yards functional year after year without extra headaches for the owners.

Ricardo and the crew pull out weedy grass that fails to drain, then lay better sod to move water properly and prevent standing puddles. They install artificial turf that stays flat and clean over time, handle full lawn repairs on new properties, and spread rock beds after quick delivery for a solid price. The same crew puts up Christmas lights on outdoor setups when the season hits and takes on complete yard projects or seasonal maintenance. They arrive ready with the right equipment, finish the work without loose ends, and keep homeowners updated on next steps so nothing drags on longer than needed. This covers everything from small repairs to bigger outdoor upgrades around Abilene and Clyde.

Homeowners come back because the results stand up to Texas weather, the crew finishes jobs fast without cutting corners, and the pricing stays straightforward with no added surprises. Communication stays clear from the first call to the final cleanup, which lines up with perfect marks on quality, response speed, fair costs, and keeping people informed throughout. Amanda T. saw her Clyde new build fixed after bad grass and flooding, while Jonathan Dizon got reliable artificial turf and holiday lights over multiple years. Danny Barefield and Ashley Hayes both noted the quick, clean rock and turf work at fair rates. DIRT Score 4.49 from 44 reviews on Finds.

“Ricardo, his brother and their entire staff are great. I enjoyed working with them as did Tyler. We have a brand new home in Clyde where the builders did a less than satisfactory job with the landscaping. The grass layed was awful and full of weeds. Lawn flooded everytime it rained. RL landscaping fixed it all layed a cement pad in front of our shop in the backyard. They put in a wifi irrigation system. Layed river rock. Our yard looks fantastic and Im sure all our neighbors are jealous lol. These guys are so professional, respectful and friendly. Would recommend them to everyone. I actually hope my neighbors have questions. I would give them more than 5 stars if I could”
