We recently entrusted Turiace Landscaping with a major project to revamp our front and back yards…read more We had a general idea of what we wanted, but were hoping for an expert to provide their ideas as well. This is exactly what we got with Austin. He provided invaluable expertise and tailored suggestions to enhance our outdoor spaces. Not only did Austin's team complete the project efficiently in just three days (including working on a Saturday of a holiday weekend!), but they also exceeded our expectations. By creatively reusing existing elements and incorporating new materials seamlessly, they achieved a harmonious and amazing result. The transformation was remarkable. They created a beautiful three-tier flower bed which they tied in nicely to an existing waterfall feature, trimmed several trees, removed unsightly stumps, and installed a modern irrigation system. The addition of decorative crushed rock and bark, combined with a redesigned retaining wall, brought a fresh and inviting atmosphere to our yard. We were particularly impressed with the attention to detail. From the lush new sod to the carefully selected plants (all deer-resistant), every aspect of the project was executed with precision. Austin's commitment to fulfilling his promises was evident in the completion of many additional smaller items, such as tree shaping and decorative pathway installation. The end result is two stunning outdoor areas that we're so happy with. We highly recommend Turiace Landscaping for their exceptional service, responsiveness, expertise, and commitment to creating beautiful and functional outdoor spaces.

I can't say enough good things about Marc and his team! From start to finish, they were amazing…read more Marc was able to take the plans from our landscape designer and translate it from circles and lines on paper to a fantastic yard. His suggestions on modifying the plan to fit our budget were on point and he delivered on all of his ideas. It was a large project and the team was onsite for about a month. His whole team did great work and seemed to have a good time doing it. They were a pleasure to work with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Cascade Gardens to anyone. They took a dilapidated property and turned it into our own private park, garden and sanctuary!!

This was our first pool, so we wanted to make sure we selected someone who is a good pool designer…read moreand builder. We spent many hours researching and carefully reviewed all the pool builders in our area. Many of the local pool companies had mixed reviews, even the pool company recommended by our builder had very mixed reviews. When I researched Jim Chandler Pools, all his reviews were all good, I even checked several different websites and those had good reviews too. Because of this we decided to give him a call to discuss our pool project and from the moment I spoke with Jim, I knew we had the right guy. He was easy to talk with and listened to what we were looking for in a pool, he gave us lots of ideas and options to think about before our first meeting. Jim went to our new home site to review the lot/backyard to ensure what we had discussed was going to work in our new backyard. Once we met in person to review the plans, he made recommendations in order to try to keep us in budget or as close to it as possible. When I called Jim's references, everyone I spoke with highly recommended him, they enjoyed working with him, said he was very professional, kept them up to date with the progress, and completed the project on time and in budget. During Jim's first meeting with the City's Planning department, he found out we had very expansive soil which is a problem when installing pools. Jim explained the extra costs when building a pool with expansive soil, it creates a lot of extra work during construction as well as a lot of extra cost to reinforce the pool and pool deck. To help cover the extra costs, Jim recommended some changes to our design in order to save money to help cover the unexpected costs as we did not budget for this type of problem. We were still over budget but some of it was the expansive soil and the rest were my fault . Jim would be on site for each step to ensure everything was done to his expectations. All the contractors Jim uses do great work, they are on time, very professional, and cleaned up after they completed their work. After working with Jim, I now know why the references I called spoke so highly him, he is a great contractor, stays on top of every detail, works closely with you during the whole process from start to end. We just finished our pool, took longer because of soil issues and Covid but we made it. We are very happy with our new pool; and look forward too many years of enjoying the pool. We are very happy we choose Jim Chandler Pools; he really enjoys his job and it shows with the completed product. I am sure there are cheaper pool builders out there, but if you want it done right then I highly recommend Jim Chandler Pools.

UPDATE: It's been three years now. We have had two issues with our pool. First, a lot of…read morehorizontal trim tile came off on the spa area where it connects with the pool. We had two separate repairs made on it, and it has held since the last repair which was last summer. Apparently some water got under the tile and continued to move through them, pushing them up. The tile work was warranted for three years, so there was no charge to us. The other issue is really a matter of design. The spa was designed at the same level as the pool, with water that communicates between the two. In the summer or when there is not rain, the system works fine, and the hot tub will be hot within about 30-60 minutes, depending on the outside temperature with almost no pool water coming in and cooling it off. However, as soon as the pool water level rises much at all (after just a couple of rains), the hot tub takes much longer to heat. At about $20/hour to heat it and more than an hour, it is not worth it to us. We checked with Jim about raising the level of the spa, and he checked with the builders and it is not recommended. We are very disappointed because the only solution is to spend hours draining the pool down to a normal water level. We had normal rains last year, and more than normal this year, but after five years of drought, it seems wasteful and we know that the autofill will just end up kicking on again when the temperatures warm up. So our choice is to not use the spa all winter or to discard all the extra water at a time when our water infrastructure is at a maximum level in the area. If we were doing another pool/spa combination we would DEFINITELY have the spa elevated to avoid this design issue.

Gutierrez Landscaping came with a design all drawn out and all the tree and plants that he proposed. At our final meeting, he gave me a price and it was within our budget. I signed the contract and within a week, the demolition and planting was all done. I have had so many compliments on my new front yard from people in our neighborhood. I am very happy that I chose Gutierrez Landscaping and I would certainly recommend them to anyone who needs a new front yard or backyard. Thank you so much! Caroline Wong
