We had a particular vision for the re-landscaping of our front yard, but it posed some engineering…read morechallenges. We had a designer develop a conceptual plan, but it did not fully address the engineering issues. When we met John Arney at Helix Landscape Construction, we knew we'd found the right person and the right company for the job. Sloping below street level, our front yard posed an interesting challenge to keep rain runoff out of our sump system as much as possible. The design incorporated the concept of a rocky swale to collect runoff, but John engineered all the details to including french drains to direct runoff into the landscape to re-charge the local water table for the signature bonsai tree and other plants envisioned in the plan. Throughout the project, John took the time to understand our aesthetic for the yard, and provided advice on so many details as it took shape. He traveled with us to rock yards and specialty nurseries to help find the perfect elements. John brought both great design ideas and the technical know-how we needed to make our vision a reality. Over the course of the two weeks he spent with us, I felt he truly became our partner in the project, which made it a pleasure to work with him and his team. As for execution, John's team was efficient, conscientious and respectful of us and our neighbors. The project was completed on time, despite discovery of a massive root system left behind from a previous tree removal, and many other tweaks to the effort made along the way. We are thrilled with the results and would recommend John for any landscape project you might have.

I'm definitely the outlier here on yelp, but Helix did an extremely shameful installation for my…read moreresidential project. Nothing was done correctly. 1. irrigation: John explained he was an irrigation specialist and he declined the irrigation plan saying he would take care of the irrigation and that the price was included. He spent the first two weeks working on the irrigation, and in the end, half the grass did not survive and many of the shrubs also dried up. I ended up having to hire another contractor to re-do my irrigation who installed a completely new system tailored to the design (with new pipes, drip for shrubs, and rotor heads for the grass) in two days for less than what john charged me for one new station (that I never even authorized). 2. Lawn: new ground cover did not come in and the old grass and shrubs are popping up all over the place, despite me paying for demo of the original lawn and landscaping. I was also there when he instructed his team to spray round-up on the yard AFTER seeding and planting, so those shrubs died and the lawn either didn't grow in or died. John tried to attribute the dead shrubs to the heavy rain. 4. Very poor shrub quality: he accepted poor/dying plant material, and also let it sit for two weeks before installing, and he actually installed dead plant material, then made me walk around and make a map or install flags where replacements were needed. 5. Shrub installation: shrubs weren't placed per the design, and he also made me go around and map out the mistakes. 6. Hardscape installation - he installed stepping stones 2 inches above grade and planting boxes very unlevel/lop sided. I did get other quotes, but took this one based on recommendations. I do not recommend Helix.

A well oiled operation....I am going to give a major shout-out to the El Segundo landscaping…read morecompany, Martinez Landscaping, who today completed a major redo of our entire front yard, and part of our backyard. Two weeks daily, always on time, always with a uniformed crew, always with the bulk materials arriving and refuse being picked on time, a comprehensive, well-discussed plan, and, a contractor with a pretty decent personality, always willing and receptive to listen. It was not a cheap job, and it involved removing tons of contaminated top soil and old lawn, roots, old piping, etc., etc., planting, grading, DGing, and putting down artifical turf per the plan. I have watched many an episode of Peoples' Court featuring lawsuits against a variety of landscape contractors for a variety of reasons. No chance of that here. I heartlily recommend Damien of Martinez Landscaping for any job, big or small!

This company perfectly matched the pavers already in our backyard to create a basketball court and quickly (within a couple days) completely transformed our front yard. Throughout the entire process, Joseph was available to us via text, call, and in person to address concerns, and the construction team was beyond wonderful. I have never worked with such a CLEAN crew (special shoutout to Arturo). They literally swept and cleaned the sidewalk/street after every workday to minimize debris. Everyone in this company did more than what was agreed upon to ensure an amazing result.

Steve (South Bay Lights) was the only one who responded that was able to help me. He helped us choose a design for our project and worked with the concrete contractor to get conduit installed prior to the concrete pour. By informing my wife and I about product choices we didn't know existed, we were able to make our vision a reality. With prompt and reliable communication from Steve, we were able to get an estimate and start the lighting after the concrete workers had already started. Steve exceeded my expectations by being flexible with the schedule of the other trades working the project and making time for our job on very short notice. The products installed look and work great. The installation work is impeccable and the support and follow up after the work was completed has been tremendous. Our project was small, but I can tell that a larger job would be no problem. I would use South Bay Lights again and would recommend without hesitation.
