CLC Landscaping

CLC Landscaping operates out of San Marcos, Texas, where owner Chad handles lawn care, landscaping design and construction, irrigation work, hardscaping, concrete installations, fencing, deck building, and landscape lighting. The company lists services that cover mowing, trimming, weed control, fertilization, mulch and sod installation, leaf removal, cleanups, retaining walls, patios, fire pits, outdoor kitchens, and sprinkler systems. It serves customers across the Texas Hill Country including New Braunfels and Buda.

Reviewers describe full backyard landscaping projects that included re-sodding front yards with Zoysia grass, irrigation and drainage fixes, masonry work, and planting. Teams led by Brett, Milo, Vidal, Cristian, John, Richard, Bryan, Ruben, and Valentine handled prep, trenching, sod laying, and cleanup on multiple sites. Some customers noted fixes for flooding caused by poor drainage, while others mentioned front yard relandscaping with new fabric, rock, and plants plus sprinkler replacements. A few reviews pointed to delays in quotes or responses after initial work.

Work takes place in the listed Hill Country towns, with crews arriving on schedule for multi-day jobs and handling coordination with other trades when needed. Pricing came across as competitive in one account, and some customers praised clear plans from Chad along with crews that kept sites neat each day. Communication drew mixed notes, with praise for quick answers on active projects but complaints about unreturned calls or missed follow-up on repairs after the fact.

Google shows a 4.4 rating across reviews that often mention solid results on sod, irrigation, and drainage alongside recurring comments on crew performance and occasional gaps in post-job responses.

“The CLC team of Brett, Milo, Cristian, and Vidal and did an incredible job totally landscaping our backyard and re-sodding most of our front. The team really worked well together and truly enjoyed the entire week. Whenever I asked a small favor like lifting/moving a heavy object or hauling away an old desk, they were more than happy to do it. I will gladly continue having them perform their turf management service! Thanks!!”

“Man... Contracting in general is tough... From figuring out your design, to making it actually viable, to executing the design, and making sure any challenges (cause there will always be) can be dealt with in an appropriate way. We looked around for the right landscaping team to get the job done for a big outdoor dream project my family wanted to do. After a few discussions, we agreed to work with CLC and they have delivered fully on that dream. The work and the coordination with other businesses was nothing but top notch. The dream stayed with the plan and only minor adjustments needed to be made which was amazing. The part that impressed me the most was there was some annoying delays that pushed the timeline back a week or so but the CLC team was professional and communicated to us so we could understand the context of the situation. I cannot stress how important that is to these kind of projects. In short, CLC delivers on what you want and will be there for you every step of the way and provide incredible work. I think the photo speaks for itself”

“CLC Landscaping did an incredible job on our front yard landscape project. We had contacted several different companies to bid our project. A couple were unresponsive, a couple were completely over priced, and a couple did not seem to see our vision. Chad (the owner) is more than great to work with, has competitive pricing and his team is top notch! They did masonry, landscaping, drainage, and irrigation work. We will definitely be hiring them again in the future. Five star company!”

“1 star is being generous. Chad Currie does not stand behind his work or the work of his inferior subcontractors, for which Chad represents in his high five figure design/installation quote. Chad does not return phone calls, or emails. We simply gave up on multiple hardscape, dead plant, irrigation issues over the course of 18 mos. We couldn’t do so with our dangerous, now high liability deck that Chad’s subcontractor, Jeff, built. The deck was a component in CLC’s quote and is 100% unusable. Avoid CLC Landscaping for any design work and installation. See photos.”

“***** unfortunate EDIT to my review, While the original crew and Chad took great care of us, when I called them back to my home to do a different backyard project, they told me they would have a quote to me by the end of the week, then completely ghosted me. I have called, left voicemails and texted… zero response! As a repeat customer that’s extremely disappointing. I thought I found my company, however I will not use them again because a company is only as good as its word.”

“I’m revising my review because Chad has reached out and been professional in his response. We are working to fixing some of the issues. While some of our concerns can not be easily fixed, they are addressing what they can. The project looks nice, it has just been a long process of communication. We all know that over the past few years staffing and pricing has been an issue everywhere. We have used CLC twice for landscape installation and had our ups and downs. They were the only company that was able to give us a clear picture of what the result would look like which was impressive and it does look nice. You may have to stay on top of the crew to stick to the plan some or keep in communication through out but that is the case with most projects these days.”

“From design through completion to the final invoice, this is one of my best experiences with a business ever! Every person that I encountered was the best! The crew of John, Milo and Richard were on time, polite and worked really hard in extreme heat until day’s end. Any request that I had of them was met with a positive attitude. My yard looks fantastic and just as I imagined. If you need landscaping done , hire CLC!”

“I cannot say enough amazing things about CLC Landscaping in New Braunfels, Texas! From start to finish, the entire experience was top-notch, but I especially want to give a huge shoutout to Adam Jester. Adam truly went above and beyond to make sure I was making the right choices every step of the way. He took the time to explain options, offer thoughtful recommendations, and made me feel completely confident in the decisions we were making. That level of care and attention is hard to find these days. And the final result? Absolutely nailed it to a T. The transformation exceeded my expectations and brought my vision to life even better than I imagined. If you’re looking for a landscaping company that genuinely cares about their customers and delivers incredible results, CLC Landscaping is the one. And if you get the chance to work with Adam—consider yourself lucky! Highly recommend! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

“The CLC Team did exactly as they promised, from stripping/prepping my yard, to bringing in sand, to trenching and installing the sprinkler system, to planting my new Jamur zoysia. We couldn’t be more pleased. Photo is lawn just two weeks after installation.”

“No estimate given for work. The guy who came out proceeded to walk the entirety of our property and fix sprinklers that weren’t on the work order. Work was to be performed in the front yard by the sidewalk repairing the drip hose. But when we called to check on his progress he would tell us about this and that in the backyard that he was gonna fix. We told him NO every single time. He milked 8 hours. An easy $1000 for an hourly rate of $135 to hang out in the backyard. And then they just charged the credit card on file. Replying to your response- What is your reasoning for your employee hanging out in the backyard? And him telling us all day that he “doesn’t know” because there’s no one in the office today”. And we fully expected most if not all of the drip line to be replaced because we’ve done it ourselves a few times, it never took 8 hours.”

“The experience we had with CCL Landscaping was very positive. We had our entire front yard relandscaped and it looks amazing. CLC removed all the weeds, fabric and plants that weren't thriving and replaced them with new, better quality fabric, decorative rocks and Zeriscape plants. We also had irrigation installed in the front and backyards. The CLC employees, Brett, Milo and Vidal worked tirelessly to create a beautiful new landscape. They explained every process they were doing and answered all my questions. I would definitely hire CLC Landscaping again for any landscaping needs I may have in the future.”

“CLC prepared my yard professionally in order to establish 14pallets of Zoysia grass successfully. My back yard is starting to look like a resort. I believe it will become within a short time a golf course looking back yard. This has always been my dream. I am very pleased with the entire process. CLC is a great company.”

“We had some flooding in our house due to poor drainage in our landscaping. Due to our geography and the positioning of our house below grade, it was a difficult problem that required expert engineering. Chad came through and gave us a solid plan that accounted for elevation changes, flow, existing geography, etc. Before we had our work done I would get so stressed any time there was rain in the forecast, even canceling plans more than once so I could stay home to manage drainage. Now I have confidence that the work Chad and crew did will keep our house dry. Brett, Milo, and Vidal were here for a few days and did great, clean work. Our project turned out to be functional and also a beautiful upgrade to our curb appeal. I highly recommend calling Chad and crew for any landscaping work you may need, especially if you have a difficult engineering problem that requires an expert.”

“CLC is a Top Grade Landscape company. Highly recommended. My front lawn needed an upgrade and got it. Full all around team; Stone Work, Water System (Sprinkler and Drip) and Lighting. Thanks Chad, Bryan and Ruben's Team for an outstanding job. My wife and I are both 100% satisfied.”

“Threw marketing trash in my yard. Told me to recycle if I wasn’t interested. Didn’t respect the no soliciting sign. **Editing this review based on the owner's response. As I walked through my neighborhood I found no less than 10 other fliers flying in the wind. Several other neighborhoods surrounding us have complained. This was not a marketing company that distributed the flier. I have it on video that it was a truck with a CLC logo on it. Small businesses have rules to follow and take ownership.”

“After talking about making peoples yards nice, they came by and threw their papers into our neighborhood yards like darts. I shouldn’t have to go behind them and pick up trash from my yard, but more importantly, from the yard of my elderly neighbor that can’t get out and get it herself. Shame on you for this. This is no way to build a good reputation, and it shows how you would cut corners. Not trustworthy”

“Chad, was great with communicating with me. Brett, Milo and Vidal did a great job. I was very impressed they blow my driveway as well as my neighbors driveway and washed down the street in front of my house. I absolutely love my new landscaping project!”

“We are very happy with our landscaping! It came out even better than I hoped. I appreciated Chads expertise in making things symmetrical. I told him what I wanted and he gave some suggestions which really made a difference in the look of our design. He was so conscientious about communicating with us when we had questions and followed up as soon as he could to fix minor things we requested. I highly recommend this company!!!!”

“They accomplished a lot of work in a short amount of time! We had a whole sprinkler system replaced in the back and sod and some rock and masonry work done. We also had our front flower bed cleaned up and had mulch added. Brett, Milo and Vidal did a fantastic job on all of it!! They were very conscious of their work area and leaving it clean and neat not just at the end but everyday. We would highly recommend them for any yard improvements!!”

“Valentine did an outstanding job at my property in Martindale. Showed up when he said he would, did everything we mutually agreed upon and kept me informed along the way. I’m grateful to Valentine and have decided to utilize his services on an ongoing basis.”
