    ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Met with Alex from AV Landscaping and he instantly caught the vibe we wanted for our ranch home. What started as a plain California desert yard with zero curb appeal is now a traffic stopper! Alex's team showed up early, stayed late, and left the site spotless every day. They handled everything -- electrical, drainage, fencing, artificial turf, grill setup, and paver installation -- and even fixed things we didn't ask for just because it was the right way to do it. We had some construction issues, and his crew jumped right in to help, even redoing our fireplace tile beautifully. We did have a small delay waiting on custom pavers from Florida (our choice), but Alex and his team stayed flexible and professional the whole way. They're hardworking, honest, talented, and fair on price. We can't recommend AV Landscaping and Alex enough. Already planning for them to come back to finish our backyard, outdoor kitchen, and pool!

    Patio cover, fire pit

    Last year we had Alex and his crew update our backyard by extending our patio, adding a custom fire pit and concrete bench, adding a patio cover, capping our retaining wall and added lighting. They exceeded our expectations and we love the end result! My favorite part might be the custom concrete bench. All year we've been able to entertain in big and small ways and we can say everything still looks and works like brand new. 1. Alex was easy to work with. He listened to my vision and then with his knowledge and expertise helped make it even better. He always listened to my ideas and made sure I made the final decisions. Our backyard ended up better than what I envisioned and after spending time in it the past year there is nothing I would change. 2. Claro and his crew did high quality work never cutting corners and even made things better than how they found them. They were on time, dependable, clean and courteous. They took great care of our yard as if it were their own. 3. Both Alex and Claro were easy to talk to and kept me well informed throughout the entire process. They answered my questions and gave great advice but ultimately let me make the final decisions. Alex also answered texts and emails promptly. 4. When the project was complete, Alex followed up a few weeks later to check on things. There was one minor adjustment needed with the sprinklers which they promptly fixed for us. 5. Alex helped us achieve the best possible end product within our budget. He was able to offer more than other companies at our price point and not sacrifice quality. I would highly recommend this company and would use them again!

    Before and After, what a difference!

    Another transformation by Alex and team! We're so happy with the backyard Alex did a few years back he was our first call for our next phase. We've wanted to do major updates to the exterior and front of our house including removal of lots of trim, significant areas of new stucco, new paint scheme, white wash chimney, new walkway, break down planters, and sand and stain our existing horizontal fence and pergola. Alex was always responsive from quote process to progress and lastly making sure all the details were impeccable (he noticed things we didn't as well) upon completion. Alex is very knowledgeable and always available for your needs and a text or call away. We had a few changes during this project and Alex worked with us to suggest design and visual appeal ideas, identify solutions, and resolve issues. We feel like we got a new home and love the curb appeal now. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Alex for any project you have - in fact had a friend referred after our first project and they have a review here and very happy as well! Thanks Alex!

    AV Landscaping transformed our backyard into a beautiful, resort oasis... and we couldn't be happier! Alex was very responsive, easy to work with, and treated our project with the utmost care and respect. His attention to detail and design were impressive and appreciated. Our renovation was a complete makeover which included a new, fully cantilevered patio cover, new pavers, outdoor kitchen, fire pit and bench, outdoor shower/toilet, putting green, new landscaping throughout, and a full facelift for our pool. It was a long project, but the end result was well worth it! Alex has become like family! Enjoy the before/after photos.

    After

    I hired Alex and his crew for a big landscaping project, and they did an awesome job. They tore out my old front path and completely demoed the concrete backyard. Then they redid the path, put in paving stones, installed sprinklers, and even helped build a raised garden bed. Alex was super easy to work with -- very responsive and flexible throughout the whole process. His team worked hard every day and really paid attention to the details. Everything turned out great, and the yard looks completely transformed. If you're thinking about redoing your yard, definitely give Alex a call. His pricing also was by far the best value out of all the quotes I got.

    Alex, Claro and the entire AV Landscaping team did an absolutely amazing job transforming our yard! We are so thankful to have found a team that went above and beyond and helped us achieve such a beautiful space. Their knowledge, expertise, hard work and attention to detail separate them from the competition.

    Before

    We wanted to write this review for AV Landscaping after having Alex and his team remodel our entire backyard. We had been wanting to redo our backyard for several years and more or less thought we knew what could be accomplished with our space. After having several bids and contractors come out, it was Alex who stood out. He came up with some designs and ideas that we hadn't really thought were possible. Reading other reviews of his company, someone said something to the effect of just let Alex roll with it. That's exactly what we did. It was a very smooth process. I can't say one bad thing about his team who showed up every day right on schedule and cleaned up after the work day. Everyone we had at the job site was always friendly and helpful if we had questions. Alex was able to get plans drawn up to appease our HOA, and kept the front free of materials and debris. A great thing about the whole project was the flexibility. A few times in the process we had some items change, like the placement of the retaining wall or which plants to use at the end. It was nice to be able to alter things and get an idea of how it was going to look before making things final. Alex is very good with communication, in fact he was available pretty much all the time if we had questions. It was nice dealing with someone local to us. We were able to go pick out materials at Resource Material right down the street. For the turf, I feel like there were close to 15 different options to choose from. Drainage, sprinklers, fencing, lighting that all runs on newly installed wi-fi transformers, the team can do it all! Our project was a full remodel as you can see in the pictures. It really turned out better than we imagined when we decided to go for it. It is a completely different space now, one we are proud of and excited to see when we look out into the backyard. We hope to use Alex and his team for our front yard sometime in the future. All that being said, we highly recommend AV Landscaping without hesitation.

    Alex was amazing. I had a tight time table and he met the demand! His employees were punctual, hard working and professional. Alex and his team pulled ALL landscaping and put in everything new. He has an eye for how it should look at I let him run with it... he worked for 7 days straight and gave my home/yard a complete face lift. I wouldn't call anyone else... we are all ready strategizing for whats next. You won't be disappointed.

    Before

    Let me start with... I'm a perfectionist and have high expectations. I'm thrilled to say AV Landscape was able to meet them all. Alex works with a great designer (Tim) who came up with an amazing plan. Tim listened to everything I wanted and incorporated it into a beautiful design. Then Alex, insured with the plan was executed thoroughly. He was on site daily, always taking time to talk to me about each step along the way. He gave me choices when there were some to make and worked diligently to make sure they all happened. His team works hard and follows through on each detail. What I most appreciate about Alex is his dedication to his team, his clients and his production. He treated the work on my home as personally as I feel he would for his own. He takes enormous pride and what he does and that's refreshing. In addition, he doesn't stop when the job is done. He continues to follow up to ensure his client is happy And all is working and back or growing as anticipated. I highly recommend him. I've included before and after pictures.

    Back yard, water on

    What a professional company! I first contacted AV Landscaping in mid-April at the same time I contacted a couple of other companies. We had an old, out-of-style fountain in our backyard that leaked all the time, and we wanted to replace it with a more modern look. A few companies literally never returned my call and a few others, I was unimpressed with when talking with them by phone. From the moment I made contact with Alex, I was extremely impressed by his follow-through, pride in his work and sense of ownership and, most unusually apparently in this industry, his focus on customer service. In addition to my interest in the work itself, my big concern was also the timeline. We were out of town at the moment and in four weeks, we would be heading back home with our FOUR dogs. Doing any kind of landscape project efficiently with four dogs who needed to access the yard regularly would be next to impossible. So I asked if we could coordinate all of this virtually and finish the job within the four weeks before we got back in town. He accepted the challenge! He came out to our house literally the very next day, and we FaceTimed, and I explained my vision for the area and he shared his observations as well. After agreeing on the design plan, the scope of work and the price (which was not inexpensive but completely reasonable), he and his crew started work on May 3. After the layout, extensive concrete work, fountain build and plumbing, timers, plant and dripper installs, lighting installation and ugly tree removals were all complete, they finished on May 26 - just in time for our arrival home! Alex communicated extensively throughout the project and always kept me up to date on what was happening. They were very respectful of our property while we were out of town and they cleaned up meticulously. If I suggested an alternate idea that was a dumb one, he would very gracefully tell me why he recommended a different approach. And his design instinct was always right. After the project was finished and we were home, he came back with his crew several times to make a few other adjustments and tweaks to make sure everything was working perfectly and just as we liked it. I cannot say enough good things about this company - this level of customer service and attention to detail seems to be more rare all the time. Thank you, Alex and crew, for transforming our backyard fountain area into something that we will be proud of for years to come!

    Does he provide for periodic (I.e. Weekly) maintenance? So tired of the mow and blow guys.

    No he doesn't do the weekly leaf blowing.He offers maintenance service where his team would come and clean up the yard every 6 weeks to maintain the plants etc.

    Do you clean out yard drains?

    My drain was clogged with tree roots. They were able to dig out and replace.

Alex was professional, efficient, and incredibly patient throughout the entire project. He took the time to listen to my concerns, answer my questions, and make sure I felt comfortable with every step of the process. His attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident from start to finish. What could have been a stressful project became a positive experience because of Alex's expertise and dedication. I truly couldn't have done it without him. If you're considering a paving or landscaping project, Orange County Interlocking Paving Co. is fortunate to have Alex on their team.

I originally connected with them through Thumbtack for a sizable project and scheduled an appointment for Thursday, June 4th at 11:00 a.m. The appointment was canceled just 20 minutes before they were due to arrive. To salvage the opportunity, the salesperson, Chris, texted me and offered to come the following day at noon instead, along with a 5% discount for the inconvenience. I rearranged my schedule twice to accommodate them during what was already an exceptionally difficult time, as I was preparing to say goodbye to my 16-year-old dog that weekend. Chris did arrive on Friday as promised, but a week has now passed and I have received neither a bid nor any follow-up communication from anyone at the company. Shortly after the appointment, their Thumbtack profile was also removed or hidden. While I can't say why, the timing was odd, as it prevented me from leaving a review on the platform where we originally connected. I've uploaded screenshots with this review documenting the interaction, including Chris's last-minute cancellation, his offer of a 5% discount, and the Thumbtack notification showing the company was no longer available on the platform. If reliability, communication, and follow-through are important to you, I would recommend looking elsewhere.

    I recently worked with Jake Jo and the team at Echo Family Landscaping for a major backyard…read morerenovation, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. They handled our entire project from start to finish, which included installing new pavers, turf, and an irrigation system. The quality of their work is fantastic, and the finished yard looks absolutely beautiful--exactly like the design photos we had hoped for. As with any large landscaping project, there were a couple of minor issues that popped up along the way, but Jake was incredibly responsive and made sure everything was taken care of very quickly without any hassle. Overall, I am extremely happy with how the yard turned out. If you're looking for a reliable team in the Irvine area that does high-quality work and stands behind it, I highly recommend Jake and Echo Family Landscaping.

    Jake and his crew completed a rather large project on our new construction home that took…read moreapproximately 10 months (pool , spa, firepit, outdoor kitchen, custom pergola, front, back and side yards, water features, landscaping, etc...etc.., but it was well worth the time and cost. We purchased a home in a new development, so we vetted many different companies to build all the features we wanted on an empty canvas (ie: dirt lot). Our budget was around $290-$360k. We got around 6 bids, which we narrowed down to 3. Out of the 3, Jake gave us the most confidence in his knowledge and eye for details. We visited some of his previous projects and were thoroughly impressed. A lot of our neighbors used competitors that were cheaper, but when we saw their completed projects, you could see a lot of corners that were cut and the shoddy quality. Some look down right terrible. The majority were unhappy with the work provided by those companies. The crews were constantly changing on the same projects (subbed out to 3rd party) and there was no post-completion support. I know that there have been lawsuits filed on some of the projects. Our home, on the otherhand, has been the highlight of our neighborhood and we have people constantly taking pictures and asking for details on Jake. Not just because of the design itself, but also because of his hardworking crew. We've been beyond happy with Jake and his team and love showing off our new outdoor space. Echo was at the top end of our budget, but the quality is A+++ and 100% worth it. He didn't cut any corners and his crew pulled 10-12 hour days, 6 days a week, for 10 months. Best thing is that Jake personally checked the quality of the work on a regular basis. If anything was off by a tiny bit, Jake redid it to make it perfect. I consider myself to be detail oriented, almost to the point of being unbearable, but I never had to worry about the work being done because of the QC by Jake. This in itself was worth it. The crew was consistently the same people and HIGHLY skilled. Some of the best work I'd seen. Ricardo was our project lead and so talented and friendly. All the team was very respectful and thoughtful. They cleaned up after every day and never blasted music or talked loudly or cursed. (Which was very important to me because my neighbor and I work from home). They were kind to my wife, kids, and neighbors as well. My parents also hired Echo to fix various issues around their yard and pool and had the same experiences we did with very proficient and highly skilled crew members that worked hard. Also, the small issues we had after completion were addressed immediately. Most contractors rarely come back after you've finished paying them, but Jake really values his clients and takes pride in making sure they're taken care of before, during, and most importantly, after the project is done. There are tons of companies out there, but nobody really does it like Echo and I HIGHLY recommend them. It's worth the investment, not just financially, but also the time and memories you will have enjoying the beautiful space and features.
