What recent reviews say

Over 34 years in business, Advance earns strong marks for design work and tree service. Five-year-old complaints about distance and pricing sit alongside consistent recent praise for staff knowledge, responsiveness, and finishing quality-especially for drought-tolerant redesigns and major hardscaping. Evidence on irrigation and damage recovery is solid; details on service pace and guarantees are limited.

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

Praised for
  • knowledgeable staff (Rene, Vincent, Alberto)
  • professional and responsive
  • attention to detail
  • handles complex projects well
Watch-outs
  • refuses long-distance jobs

  • occasional communication barriers
reliableskilled-crewattention-to-detailresponsivegreat-design-ideasfair-pricing
Best for: Homeowners needing complete landscape overhaul with drought-tolerant design and multiple trades.
Think twice if: Service area may exclude jobs far from Austin (past complaints about 35-40 min drive); initial bid cost may be higher than competitors.

Strengths

  • Long track record (34+ years)
  • Certified design and arborist expertise
  • Full-scope projects (design through installation and maintenance)

Worth knowing

  • Named crew: Rene, Vincent Uherek, Miguel, Isidro, Alberto
  • Handles complex projects: bamboo removal, drainage remediation, RV pad with city permitting
  • Damage accountability: proactively worked with insurance after accidental damage during work

Urban Oasis transforms backyard spaces with attention to detail that extends from design through final cleanup. Noah and his team earn respect by staying responsive, treating properties and neighbors with care, and delivering finish-quality work on time. A handful of customers have waited for damage resolution, but the business actively addresses those concerns when contacted. Reviewers name specific leaders (Noah, Carter, Augusto, Jared) and praise 3D renderings, deck and pool builds, patio installations, and fence work. Crews leave yards clean daily, coordinate with third-party contractors, and handle concerns promptly once engaged. Their work costs more than basic competitors, though customers report fair pricing for the level of craft.
