Hapa Landscaping — Local services in Honolulu

Mahalo to the team at Hapa Landscaping for making my backyard look so beautiful! The Synlawn and Japanese garden give me endless pleasure everytime I look at it. Kila, Ralph? (sorry, forgot his name) came the first couple of days along with Chad and Pali who were there from the beginning and all the way to the end of the project. They worked very hard and were so patient with me (because I am quite picky) when I wanted things done a certain way. Hardworking, efficient, polite, and overall very nice guys. Thank you Chad and Pili for acommodating me and going above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied and happy with the project. (If there's any drawback to this whole project it is that I talked to or corresponded with so many different people - Bruce, Brant, Santi, and finally Ace that I found myself repeating what I wanted to have done.) Ace Nash was in charge of my project and he, bless him, was also so very patient with me when I explained my vision for this project. He gave some very good input and feedback and although I was adamant at first about sticking to what I had already decided on, I eventually came around to what he had suggested and I am so happy that I did. Thank you, Ace, for helping to bring my vision to fruition. It was a pleasure to work with the whole Hapa Landscaping staff. I hope my yard continues to look beautiful and I'll do my darnedest to maintain and...

Our "yard" is mostly planter boxes and gravel-covered areas with some fruit trees. We managed to keep everything clean until the kids got invoived in sports and then our yard turned into a jungle. Our house looked abandoned and we were embarrassed to invite people over. Finally, we decided we needed to call in the pros and after getting quotes from several, highly-rated landscaping companies, Santiago came out and impressed with his advice, detailed proposal, and price. We almost didnʻt call Hapa Landscaping because they looked to expensive based on the sample jobs highlighted on their website. Our job was much humbler--it was just clearing weeds, digging up the hale koa trees, and restoring the planter areas to nice, neat gravel covered areas. We ended up expanding scope and added an area of synlawn and terraced the small hill in our back yard but we couldnʻt be happier. Hapa Landscaping was easy to communicate with, their crew was professional, they kept the job site spotless at the end of each day, and the workmanship was excellent. We did run into a little mis-communication regarding the front yard but I take responsibility on that. I should have asked questions about the specifics in the quote (which was a great quote) so that we were all on the same page. I would recommend Hapa Landscaping even if youʻre not doing something super fancy...

We just had our Synlawn turf installed a week ago and I have to say that everyone I interacted with at Hapa Landscaping was absolutely great. Victor came out for our initial site inspection and made it very efficient. Had quick, useful answers when I asked for recommendations and options on particular matters that I'm very happy with. Didn't shy away from anything. Ace the project manager was easy to reach and great when I asked to make a modification during the process, he made the change happily. Dylan and the crew were all really nice people. Their work was fantastic. The whole process took only a couple days and didn't require me to do anything at home. No micromanaging needed. It was so painless. I really can't recommend them enough. I put some before and after pictures below. I am personally doing some more landscaping to the periphery of the backyard around the turf which is as of yet still incomplete, but it's pretty visible how much a difference the turf made. From messy and unwelcoming to a pleasant space we all enjoy.

Big Mahalo to Brandt and the Hapa Landscaping...
