He isn't your typical "gardener" but he got the job done and helped my vision blossom into a reality; I am now enjoying the fruits of his labors (puns slightly intended). Thanks Gene!

He helped me get the property cleaned up & updated as we prepared to get it on the market to sell. He (and his team) got to work on cleaning up the overgrown yard, updated plantings, fixed sprinkler systems and just really made things look great & exceeded my expectations! I had him continue to maintain the first yard and take on another property next door to clean it up and prepare it for sale also. He did his magic on that yard too - making it look great and maintained it until we were able to sell. He is there when he says he will be and, I believe, his prices were reasonable for all the work he did. David has great ideas, listened to input from me and is generally fantastic to work with! I couldn't be more thankful to have worked with him and give him the highest recommendation!

From beginning to end, Jake and his team were professional, efficient, and great to work with. Jake was incredibly proactive and involved throughout the entire process. He consistently followed up, met with us to select flooring samples and plants, worked within our HOA guidelines, and provided everything we needed for HOA approval. He also stayed on top of the permitting process and followed up with the city to keep everything moving. What we especially appreciated was the quality of their work and attention to detail. The crew never rushed the project just to get it done. They took the time to make sure everything was done properly while still keeping the project moving and staying on schedule. The entire crew was hardworking and very respectful of our home and space throughout the renovation, working 6 days a week. Even after the project was completed, Jake continued to be extremely responsive. We had a few minor items that needed follow-up, and he addressed them right away. We really appreciated that the same level of service and responsiveness continued even after the job was finished. We're so grateful to Jake and his team for doing such an amazing job and completing everything on time so we could enjoy our new backyard this summer. We love how everything turned out and would highly recommend Jake and the Echo Landscape team to anyone considering an outdoor renovation!

I can't say enough great things about Jake Joe and his team at Echo Homes. From start to finish,…read morethe entire experience exceeded my expectations. Our project included a full transformation of our backyard, courtyard, and side yard, and the results are absolutely stunning. Jake installed two custom fire pits, beautifully laid porcelain tile, and a customized louvered patio cover. He also helped with the placement of patio pots and selecting plant material, carefully considering sunlight, plant hardiness, and overall aesthetics. Everything feels perfectly balanced and thoughtfully designed. Even though I had a professional landscape design to start with, Jake suggested several updates that elevated the entire space, giving it a more modern and upscale look. He truly has an exceptional eye for detail and is resourceful at troubleshooting. His crew, Moi and Paco, were equally impressive. They were onsite every day from 7am to sunset, Monday through Saturday, and their work ethic was unmatched. Moi, in particular, stood out. He is incredibly diligent, knowledgeable, and professional. It was clear that they approached every step with care, always "measuring twice and cutting once." They took the time to think through details and identify potential issues before making any cuts, which gave me a lot of confidence in their craftsmanship. Jake's commitment to quality really sets him apart. If something wasn't perfect in his eyes, he had his team redo it even if it was solely for aesthetics like the placement of a pot. His adjustments and recommendations made the final result even better. This wasn't only about getting the job done quickly, it was definitely about getting it done right. The end result is top-notch, and I couldn't be happier. Highly recommend Jake Joe and Echo Homes to anyone looking for high-quality, thoughtful, and beautifully executed landscaping work. (I wish I could've said this about my house remodeling contractors - no comment!)

Victor and his team did an excellent job on our small backyard landscaping project. The scope included clearing out weeds and an old tree stump, replacing irrigation lines, planting the plants we selected, and finishing everything with white rock. The work was efficient and well organized, the entire project was completed in a single day, and the results look clean and thoughtfully done. What really stood out was Victor's professionalism and follow-through. His quote was significantly lower than the three other estimates I received, and there was no compromise on quality. After the install, he noticed that our water pressure was higher than expected, and he came back to properly add a pressure valve to protect the irrigation system. That extra care made a big difference and showed he stands behind his work. Overall, a great experience from start to finish. High-quality work, clear communication, fair pricing, and someone who genuinely cares about doing the job right. I would absolutely recommend Victor for landscaping projects. read more

Victor and his team did an excellent job cleaning up my yard and roof! They removed all the weeds that covered the whole yards, trimmed the overgrown trees, and also cleaned the roof and gutters thoroughly. Both front and back yards look so much better now, with all the trees and bushes neatly shaped. They worked quickly and efficiently, finishing everything in about two hours. Victor was also very responsive in yelp messages and came by the next morning for a free quote, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend him! read more

I have hired other gardeners I found on Yelp, and they have all been good, but for one reason or another I have never called them back. Angel is different. For the first time, I didn't have to provide any guidance. He and his crew arrived early and just went to work. When he was done, I did ask why a few things weren't trimmed, and for each he had an answer that made sense. Most importantly, I didn't have to ask him and go back and pull weeds that still remained or cut other things that should have been cut. On top of that, he trimmed my trees (small lemon and olive trees) way more than any other gardener before me, without my asking! Needless to say, if you are looking for an expert gardening service for regular maintenance, Angel is your man!

They beautifully trimmed six trees that had become very overgrown - taking time to make sure the trees still looked good and not just topped - which was a major concern of mine. 4.) They left the yard absolutely spotless when they were finished! 5.) Their office staff was also wonderful to work with: great communication, quick responses for scheduling, and an easy payment process. I've used a number of different tree trimming services over the years and I can finally say I found a team that I plan on using again next year. Looking forward to recommending them to my friends and neighbors.
