Common questions

How quickly can they turn around a backyard project?
Recent projects completed in 2 days to 3 days (front garden beds and stone) up to one week (full backyard transformation). Speed varies by scope.
Do they handle drainage and slope issues, or just design?
They diagnose and solve functional problems like erosion and rainwater drainage alongside design, often incorporating retaining walls and walkways as part of the solution.
Can they work with a tight budget?
One reviewer noted Garret worked with them on solutions that fit their budget scope and added free work to ensure the design succeeded.

Every review across 18 submissions is five stars. Customers consistently praise Justin, Charlie, Felipe, Zach, and Nash by name for responsiveness, clear communication, and finishing on schedule. Work ranges from simple planting and paths to major structural projects (retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, pergolas, driveway installs, pool demolition). The crew arrives punctual each day, cleans up thoroughly, and tackles complex grading and engineering challenges without cutting corners. Several reviewers have hired them repeatedly, suggesting lasting satisfaction. Notable strength: the team takes time to understand each client's vision in pre-project walkthroughs, offers design input while respecting budgets, and sources hard-to-find materials (fruit trees, Cor-Ten steel, Ipe hardwood). Staff remain patient through extensive changes and questions. One reviewer noted being squeezed in during peak season for a tricky job requiring coordination with a local nursery. No pricing details, complaints, or service limitations appear in the reviews.

Most customers report successful outdoor transformations with skilled crews and professional design consultation. However, two substantive complaints detail major irrigation failures, unfinished projects, extended delays, and poor communication that required customers to spend $15,000 and weeks managing repairs themselves. The steel pergolas and patio hardscapes draw consistent praise, yet irrigation systems failed within a year, and project timelines often exceeded estimates. Jeremy leads the design phase but is reportedly absent during installation. Budget adherence and responsiveness vary sharply across jobs.

Michael and his team move fast: quotes arrive within days, crews show up on schedule, and projects finish ahead of expectation without cutting corners. Reviewers consistently name Norma, Henry, Delmar, and Yovani as crew members who execute detail-heavy work (sod replacement, tree planting, retaining wall repair, flagstone paths, gravel and paver installations) with precision and professionalism. Repeat clients and multi-bid comparisons point to a competitive pricing strategy that still outperforms four to five competing quotes. The business identifies and repairs problems earlier contractors missed (sprinkler leaks, wall drainage). Communication runs clear from first call through post-project care, with Michael handling estimates and crew leads managing on-site execution. Even rush jobs for move-in deadlines arrive polished.
