    We have had a great experience with Victor and his crew. We are very happy with the patio they put in our front yard! What I appreciate most is their communication and commitment to fixing issues. There has been some fine tuning that has needed to happen after our project was finished. Victor has come out many times to follow up and troubleshoot. Highly recommend Caliscapes!

    Overall good experience with Caliscapes OC! Oscar came out and thoroughly listened to what we wanted to do then gave us a detailed and competitive quote with pictures. Everything was digital so it was easy to accept the quote and pay for the services online. No additional fees for credit card payments either which was very nice. The work was completed within two days which was much faster than originally anticipated. Everything was very professionally done, the workspace was clean after each day and they even provided their own portapotty. Communication was and still continues to be a bit of an issue. We had asked for explicit watering instructions for each type of plant since there is a guarantee on each plant for a specific amount of time. It took a few days to long after the job was complete to actually receive the written instructions, something both parties agreed upon well before the job started. Additionally a few of the planted trees in the backyard are very unhealthy looking which we informed the team of right away, well within the guarantee period. It has now been almost three months after completion of the job and we still have not been able to make any progress on fixing or replacing the dead trees. We will occasionally receive a call or text back but it does not seem like the issue is being taken seriously which is unfortunate. Overall I would recommend Caliscapes as I am happy with the speed of the job from start to finish and the finished product, but communication could be much better.

    Caliscapes is top notch. Excellent quality, friendly, honest and reliable crew. Great Communication throughout project. They exceeded my expectations. Provided detailed plans and pricing. Cleanup at the end of each work day was appreciated. Not the cheapest or the most expensive but after completion I must say it was worth every penny. Highly recommend!

    We needed to remodel our whole backyard and Caliscapes OC was the right choice. Oscar came out to our house and was accommodating to the our wishes while planning our yard. He was very knowledgeable about botany and what kinds of plants would fit our style/climate and always offering really good opinions for what plants and colors look best. Victor was very communicative during the whole process, always respectful of our property, and detailed-oriented to make sure the whole project came together perfectly. He coordinated the fencing and patio teams to work around my busy schedule. Victor even went out of his way to help my mom with her electrical issues in her ADU next door. The project came out perfect and even more than we had hoped for. Our backyard is now a relaxing and peaceful modern garden zen, and we are constantly finding excuses to do activities outside now even in the current cold weather. The details matter and Caliscapes had accomplished creating our perfect getaway. Hosting people has been easy and fun and they are constantly loving the makeover. I would not hesitate in considering them for any outdoor projects and landscaping. I feel good knowing that their work is backed by warranty if something goes wrong because they are proud of their work, a testament of a trustworthy company. I will continue to recommend them to all my friends and families. Thank you Victor and Oscar!

    Update AGAIN: I recently messaged Oscar regarding the current condition of our plants as they were showing signs of stress and we thought they were dying. At first I hesitated to message him being it has been years so I didn't expect to get any help as we are way past the plant shock warranty, but decided to after-all. Oscar immediately responded and set up a time to come out. We were so amazed at how much time he spent diagnosing our plants. He tested the soil, checked the sprinklers, timing of watering, and overall health of our plants. Oscar provided clear instructions on what we needed to do. Luckily the plants were still salvageable to our surprise. Additionally, he sent me detailed instructions via text of how to get our plants back to a healthy level. The level of service provided by Oscar exceeds 5 stars. I truly appreciate the great service and genuine concern for me as a customer. Thank you Oscar and Caliscapes OC for your amazing work, customer service, and commitment to your customers.

    Old landscape
    Carlos H.

    100% impressed with the landscape project Caliscapes provided us. Our old landscape was due for renovation, so a complete demolition was needed. Oscar and Victor and the crew of 7 showed up every day on the dot at 7:30 AM till 4 pm all wearing professional Caliscapes workwear and Caliscapes trucks ready to kick ass. At the end of day, EVERYTHING was washed down as if it were my weekly Gardner was here every day. Me and my wife were impressed with Caliscapes work ethic and attention to detail everyday and even after completion of project to satisfaction! Communication with Oscar and Victor was better than our own efforts! We felt 100% confident in all their actions. Me and my wife are very type A folks and never felt to second guess Caliscapes' detail to attention. Overall very competitively priced for what you get in return and beyond expectations on all levels. We highly recommend Caliscapes and stand behind their brand! Contact me personally and I will continue this post. I recommend to at least request a quote. We live in San Clemente in a gated community and our neighbors are very impressed!

    They did Flatwork, irrigation, SOD and plants!

    Very well orchestrated, Victor and his crew were extremely efficient, and did terrific work!

    Turf, plans, and trees.

    Outstanding job!!! Victor and Oscar were very professional and easy to work with. Their vision and design for our backyard exceeded our expectations. Victor and his crew's quality of work was amazing. They worked non-stop until they finished the job. Victor is very knowledgeable with tons of experience. His vision and attention to detail were impressive. We love our new backyard and look forward to enjoying it for years to come. Thank you Caliscapes OC.

    Victor and Oscar are great communicators and very knowledgeable about plants and hardscape. 110% would work with Caliscapes OC again and recommend them to anyone looking for landscape (re)design done well! Scope of work: Complete redo of front yard + parkways. Design with plant and placement recommendations, demolition of soft and hardscapes, installation of concrete pads, floating steps and turf with light fixtures, planting of small plants and hedges with irrigation. Service: Victor was prompt in returning my initial email requesting for an estimate. We were majorly impressed with how much time he spent on reviewing the estimate with us and communicating the plan each step of the way -- this gave us such confidence with the work that was being done. Even though Oscar handled the design, the whole process felt very collaborative. He listened to what we were looking for and gave us options that aligned with our preferences. Oscar also gave us a care guide for the plants we ended up going with. Workmanship: Victor is very detail oriented and holds his crew to a high standard. Quality was never sacrificed just to make the project go faster. We also appreciated the way Victor made suggestions based how the space would look and would be used instead of just whatever was easiest to do or most cost-effective. The hard-working crew arrived on time and cleaned up the work area every day. Cost: It was hard to make a true comparison since none of the other estimates we received were as thorough as the one provided by Caliscapes OC. For the top-notch communication and workmanship, the cost was well justified.

    Been dreaming of renovating our front yard since the day we moved in. Caliscapes OC did an awesome job helping us pick out plants and executing our dream, they completed our project in only 4 days! Here are some before and after photos. The kids love the finished result. Price was competitive. Really helpful that they accepted credit card. Oscar and his horticulture background helped tremendously with his knowledge of plants. Victor the owner was onsite working alongside his employees to get the job done with quality and speed. He was accommodating with changes and adjustments with a great attitude. Really appreciate you guys!

    We had the BEST experience with Oscar and Victor while repairing and redesigning our backyard. They are thoughtful, reliable, creative, and mindful of budget concerns. We had a huge sloping/receding yard to bring back up to level so we wanted to improve the entire backyard while we did that without spending a fortune. Oscar made suggestions we hadn't even considered and it made a huge difference in the final result. Their pricing was competitive and we think we got more value from Caliscapes' plan and approach. We absolutely loved the 3D render they included. We also loved that they helped us incorporate a section for a G-scale train layout for our son, but also ensured we had water to the area for when it will be changed over to a food garden in the future. They were willing to work with an existing patio in order to keep our overall budget in line and they made the new added patio work really well with that existing design. Most impressively, they only took on one project at a time so we had a full team working, including the owner, Victor, daily on our yard until it was complete. They cleaned up the area everyday without reminders. We didn't have to worry our project would be completed on time. They also were willing to modify ideas as we proceeded and were very upfront in analyzing costs immediately so we could make an informed decision on the changes. And true to their word, Oscar has come back to check on plants and will happily be replacing one small tree that didn't survive the initial shock planting. We wish all contractors could be this responsible and we recommend them for any project.

    Quick response time, but a $10,000 minimum puts this company out of reach for a lot of us.

    Working with Mike and the Sea Breeze team was truly easy breezy. I had worked with contractors…read morebefore for an in-home renovation and this experience was so much better, efficient, and organized in comparison. To be honest, it really restored my faith in landscaping contractors. I submitted an online request for a quote and the next day Mike emailed me requesting pictures of what our project wanted to include. Originally we just wanted to pull out our front yard plants and redo just the front but there is a $5000 project minimum. After deciding to redo our turf and also include our backyard, Mike came out the next week for a free in person consultation and got me a detailed quote within 2 days. The turnaround time for everything was just amazing, I've never seen anything like it. Our lot is about 3615 sq ft to give a reference point. Our project included: all the labor to demolish/uproot all of our plants including a very large 20 year old tree in the backyard + all the roots (completed in 2-3 days), redid our front and backyard turf (completed in 2 days by Backyard Golf Company), added a veneer stone and cap on our retaining wall (1 week) and replanted all our plants/installed a drip sprinkler system/installed lighting front and backyard (1 week). We have an HOA and Mike had a complete detailed plan and diagram ready for us within 3-5 days. Once HOA got back to us, the project was started within a week and finished in the estimated time frame. Workers came promptly at 8 AM and they were actively working all day not just sitting around. Very respectful, even blowing all the dust at the end of the day to keep the area clean, no garbage left anywhere. The entire project was $30,000 and there weren't any surprise or unexpected costs. Invoices are sent every week on a reasonable schedule and I just loved our experience. I'd recommend Seabreeze to anyone wanting to do their hardscape landscaping in a heartbeat!

    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.
