I literally have my dream backyard and it's all because of Landwell Design + Build…read more Their design process and staff are beyond comparison. I am an interior designer so I had high standards for how the process would get to the end result. Joslyn, the landscape designer, starts the process. She came over to see my sad patch of weeds for a yard. I told her my wish list and the aesthetic I was going for. She drew up the most beautiful plans and right from the get go I could see my vision and her design come to life. Joslyn gets it. SHE REALLY GETS IT. After the design phase, we smoothly transitioned into 'budgeting phase'. That is when Jon takes over and goes over pricing and budget. He is very honest and clear about what can be done and not done within the allotted budget. Although we couldn't get everything we wanted, (due to budget), we were happy with what we ended up choosing to achieve 90% of the backyard we dreamed of. After budgeting, we scheduled the work to be done. When production started, the crew started on time and began working on time and extremely professionally. From the start I could see they really cared about their craft, as the work was done beautifully and professionally. Matt and Marcus became our buds. I can't say enough about how meticulous and thorough of a job they did every step of the way, we REALLY appreciated that. They knew how much this backyard meant to us, and they did everything in their power to deliver us an excellent experience all through the process. In our opinion, the job was pretty big so it took about 4 months to complete with work happening almost every day for that time. In a limited space, we were able to create an entire outdoor fully built out 9' x 12' office space for my husband. We have a dining area covered by a pergola, a fire pit corner, a hot tub, and decent sized grass area (synthetic turf) for our kids to play. It truly is a show stopper and I am in awe everyday when I look out those sliders and see what they have created for us.Thank you so much Landwell. The Millers are big fans and we are grateful we found you and chose you to help us make living in SLO even better!

We can't say enough amazing things about Landwell. We absolutely love our backyard. My wife and I…read moredo not trust easily, but Landwell went above and beyond! If you're looking for a design + build experience, for so many reasons you have to go with Landwell. My wife and I were after a modern boutique hotel rooftop vibe for our backyard. Their lead designer Joslyn learned all the elements we wanted, provided additional elements we didn't know we wanted and packaged everything in a beautifully cohesive design. Owner Jon and the crew Ryan, Woody and others were incredible to work with. Always in great spirits and willing to accommodate any additional requests no matter how big or small. They had passion and took pride in their work. We're grateful we went with them. They took our completely empty dirt back yard to complete transformation in 3 months. We are continually blown away. We plan to have additional work done on our front yard and will only use Landwell. Thank you again to the entire Landwell team!

MY EXPERIENCE / MY OPINION. HIRE THE KID NEXT DOOR BEFORE YOU HIRE THIS GUY!!! For twenty three…read moremonths, I have paid this company an excessive amount of money for services promised on their website and in our contract that they have not been able to deliver. The owner of the company, Erik Wolting, is a petty man who has only been to my property on one occasion that I am aware of. When I have had to complain to him about the poor work of his employees, he always responds that his employees disagree with me and suggests or indicates that I might be mistaken. I have had to back up my complaints with photos and videos. Last spring, I notified him that my roses and hydrangeas were in terrible shape. His website clearly states that his "professional crew is trained to look for disease and pests" on plants, but they clearly missed this!! And, our contract, too, spelled out that they would look for disease and insects and treat accordingly, but they had not. A garden club group came to tour my place and were shocked by what they saw. Finally, Erik came by and saw that what I had been telling him was true. He admitted that "we blew it" and that it would never happen again. ... Well, it happened again this year. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. His crew repeatedly "clipped" a half inch here and there off my shrubs and hedges and probably noted in their reports that they were keeping them trim, but all the while they were actually allowing them to grow out of control. Two large shrubs in the front of the house that Erik noted last year, saying, "I'll have the guys even those up" are still lopsided and uneven. I had American Leak Detectors come out to find a leak in the $4,000+ irrigation system Erik's "expert" installed (but that they haven't been able to maintain, because it's "just impossible to do" according to Erik) and American Leak Detectors found the leak. They sent the report with the diagram and exact location of the leak to Erik and his team - but it took his expert THREE DAYS to find it. I was paying him by the hour, and he had a cigarette in his mouth the entire time. The final straw was last week. I have a eucalyptus tree that was not getting water. I noted it in an email to the office manager, and asked her to have the crew check it. Erik responded after the visit with the crew's notes: "the eucalyptus tree she notes is not a eucalyptus at all but is an old oak tree." ... No, the old oak is three feet from the young eucalyptus that isn't getting any water, but the brilliant people he hires didn't bother to look three feet to didn't bother to look three feet to the left to see the dying tree. When I sent Erik a photo of the two trees, side by side, he EXPLODED. The petty, pathetic little man didn't have the integrity or dignity to admit his crew was wrong or to speak with me. He had his office manager email me and QUIT. He said - essentially - that if I want a company that can keep an eye out for disease, insects and watering issues, I was asking for WAY TOO MUCH. I kept thinking they would get better. Erik kept defending his crews. Believing them, even when I had photos / videos to prove my point. I've saved every text and email. He didn't live up to the contract. He said his brilliant crew chief Steve has won an award, and I'm guessing it was student of the week at his preschool. Erik is not a fair and decent man to do business with, and this is only the first of many reviews I will be leaving. Save yourself the grief.

Jay and his team worked meticulously to remove and clean the bricks. Then they removed a lot of dirt, leveled the area and created a new base before replacing the bricks. It is very evident that the men have the knowledge and experience to do the work and take pride in their work. They discussed the project before and during the process to ensure that we were happy with how it was proceeding and asked if we had any questions or comments to ensure we were all on the same page. The work area was left clean and organized at the end of each day. We love the outcome! No more tripping on uneven bricks or pulling weeds that were growing between the bricks. Both the brickwork and the concrete paths greatly improved the look of our property. We appreciate the time and attention Dream Home Landscaping gave to our project!
