About Brainard's Greenscapes

Owner-operated landscaping in Las Cruces since 2007. When you call, David answers. When you meet on-site, David's there. When the work starts, David's on the job.

Meet David Brainard

David started Brainard's Greenscapes in 2007 with a simple idea: show up when you say you will, do the work right, and treat every yard like it's your own. Nearly two decades later, that hasn't changed.

He's the one who answers your call. He's the one who walks your property with you, listens to what you want, and tells you what'll actually work in the Las Cruces heat. And he's the one on-site making sure the job gets done the way he promised.

That's the difference between hiring a company and hiring David. You're not getting passed off to a salesperson or a crew you've never met. You're working directly with the owner — from the first conversation to the final walkthrough.

What Customers Say About David

We had a very frustrating experience with the first landscaper we hired for our turf project, and thankfully we found someone who truly cared about helping us fix it the right way. From the very first phone call, David responded quickly, came out right away, and immediately started working on solutions. What stood out most was his honesty, transparency, and professionalism throughout the entire process. David genuinely listens to your vision, works with your budget, and treats the project as if it were his own home. You can tell he takes pride in his work and truly wants his customers to be happy with the final result. It's rare to find someone who combines skill, reliability, and integrity the way he does. Highly recommend David to anyone looking for quality landscaping work and someone you can truly trust.

David was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. He patiently answered all of my questions about the plants and trees around my home and provided valuable insights into the issues I was facing. His friendly demeanor and expertise made the experience enjoyable and informative. I highly recommend him

We had a great experience with David. We used him for one of our rental properties in Las Cruces and will definitely be using him again for the next one. Everything from start to finish was professional and timely. Highly recommend.
