We use eco-friendly equipment and organic products to maintain pristine commercial landscapes while reducing environmental impact. Regular debris removal and seasonal adjustments ensure year-round property appeal and health.

IAA-certified arborists provide pruning, disease treatment, and hazard assessments. Emergency removal services handle storm-damaged trees, while preventive care programs maintain canopy health through deep-root fertilization and pest management tailored to Southern California's climate conditions.

Smart irrigation systems optimize water use through weather sensors and automated controllers. Our Weathermatic partnership delivers technology that reduces consumption by 38-50% while maintaining landscape vitality through precise moisture monitoring and distribution adjustments.

I appreciate Stay Green trimming the lower parts of my plants. My dog suffered a snake bite from a rattlesnake. Polite requests yield positive outcomes. They spent just 10 minutes of their time doing this. The customer service was excellent. Thanks again for their help.

I have been serving as the president of my HOA for a long time now. I have also had the opportunity to work with Staygreen for many years. We received an award for our landscape last year, thanks to our collaboration with them. They demonstrate a high level of professionalism. The crews are exceptional in their work. I consider Dave Colburn to be the most exceptional manager I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Staygreen's pricing is also very reasonable. I highly recommend them due to their excellent service and fair prices.

I have been working with Stay Green for a long time. Stay Green offers exceptional customer service and outstanding landscaping and maintenance. My contact, Dave Colburn, takes extra effort to ensure his teams deliver the best results possible. I have been serving as the president of my HOA for many years and would like to express my appreciation to Dave, his team, and Stay Green for helping us win First Place in small HOA maintenance at the California Contractors Association 2024 Beautification Awards.

This is a significant achievement. I want to thank Stay Green for all their efforts and for maintaining an excellent price value for their services. I highly recommend Stay Green, as they are extremely hardworking and friendly.

I want to commend the workers who I've seen while walking in the mornings. Every time I approached them, they stop the machines they are using until I've safely walked past them. I always get a smile & good morning from the guys. It is nice to see a friendly face in the mornings!

My biggest problem with the company is their apparent complete disregard for water saving measures. I have never seen one employee look at water waste when the sprinklers are running in the Northbridge neighborhood in Valencia. I have been taking evening walks here for many years, and am always struck by the massive runoff in area that are clearly being overwatered. I have written to SCV Water about this. Apparently commercial customers are not accountable to preserving our water.

An employee from this company shot a rock through my personal vehicles window. Spoke with the employee who was apologetic. Was given contact info a supposed manager in so cal named Juan. After discussing the matter, I was assured the damage would be covered by the company. 1 week later, no response and the shop handling the repair hasn't had the balance paid either. Needless to say very shady and unprofessional. Imagine if they damaged something larger.
