Axel and his team were Phenomenal!!! I had the privilege of buying a home that was built brand new, from the ground up by this company! I've been here almost 2 years now and anytime I need anything, I call them! I want the same quality and attention to detail that already exists here. I had to have a cinderblock wall added to and 16 podocarpus trees planted on my side yard. The wall turned out great and was completed within 2 days and all of the trees, plus the wood planter border were completed in one day!!!! Unbelievable! They even tied everything into the original sprinkler system and all took place without even the slightest hiccup . Now they're coming tomorrow so I can see about putting professional lighting all throughout the front and back yard! If you want it done fast and right, go with these guys! They are not the cheapest, but they are reasonable and worth every red cent penny . Thank you to Jereme, Axel and the entire team read more

Like most customers, we got several quotes from various companies to do the work. Axel and their company were the only ones who were timely, broke down the cost of work well, and responded to our questions and requests. He listened. He made recommendations but he never pushed. During the duration of the project, Axel would stop by to ensure the crew was on schedule. Any requests that we had were discussed in real time which helped the crew stay on schedule. Any small changes that we had did not require a change order or additional purchase order before moving forward. Communication was great. We would 100% recommend Cutting Edge Landscape. Thanks for making our vision come to life! read more

Axel was a pleasure to work with to install artificial turf in my backyard. Within less than two weeks, Axel provided me with a really fair and straightforward quote, dropped off samples, scheduled the work, and completed the job! His crew is excellent, friendly and polite, and doesn't cut corners. The job only took 3 days and turned out great. I would highly recommend working with Axel and Cutting Edge for artificial turf installation. read more

Cutting Edge was great to work with we really had a 10/10 experience. Axel was quick to come out and give an estimate and provided really simple and easy to follow solutions for some of our back yard landscaping issues. We ended up doing a significant amount of grading, privacy hedging and stepping stones. Pricing was fair and the guys got it all knocked out ahead of schedule while we were out of town providing picture updates throughout the process. We returned to a totally clean and finished project with the work exactly how we discussed read more

We could not have been happier with the landscaping services we received from Cutting Edge and from AXEL who supervised the job. Just absolutely stellar. They replaced the cement driveway including building out steps on left side leading to front door walkway, demoed the front yard including taking out a a big tree/roots, took out old cement walkway replacing with stone, resurfaced the porch and steps with stone, added plants, lighting and a drip system. They showed up every day and put in serious work. Axel was there and responded to every request and question we had. They finished on time and pricing was fair. Would highly recommend. read more

Would highly recommend Cutting Edge Landscaping. Called to get a quote to remove old decking and replace with pavers. Axel came out the next day to look over the job and explained everything they would do to complete the job. The price was good and they could start the job right away. Axel and his crew showed up on time every day and worked hard to finish the job on time. Axel showed up everyday to check on the job and answer any questions I had. Great experience read more

I had a challenge in my backyard and called Acel to help. He came right away and his understanding of the issue was great. In a day they offered to fix part of the backyard. However, dealing with the homeowners' association took a while and he very patiently waited with me. Once I was ready he gave us the date to fix right away and did not even increase his price despite a gap of over two months or so. Their work is extraordinary and very timely. His workers were very good and they all did a very professional job. We are very presswd and actually we have already asked him for another job! I will higher cutting edge any day without any hesitation. Thank you Axel and the team. Nitin Shah. read more

I had the pleasure of working with Eric in regards to a driveway and backyard redesign. The project involved removing all concrete on the property and replacing them with these beautiful terracotta pavers, replacing the old rotting fence with white vinyl, re-tiling of the front porch, reconstruction of back entrance landing and custom caps for crawl space entrances. Construction was headed by Axel Caballero who kept his team moving fast with great quality care! He was very communicative, provided what to expect on certain days, and ensured my property was treated with care and respect. Axel and the team provided an amazing experience for my family's first house project and will be tapping them again for future projects. read more

I was told weeds and grass would only grow at the seams of the ground cloth. Unfortunately the ground cloth had no anchors and was pieced together from what looks like scraps. I am a disabled widow who specifically told Sarah I did not want grass at all. The neighbors who were interested in contacting have changed their minds and don't want the same problem. Also when I first complained about the weeds and grass problem in November Cruz was sent out to check. I did let Sarah know that I was out of town for a few weeks. When I returned I found water was running, in an unrequested connection installed for the back yard. Since I did not want the back yard connect Cruz just buried the pvc pipenext to the house foundation. This is where water was running. My water bill was doubled that month. I did contact Sarah to let her know and no offer to pay that portion of my bill was made. Truthfully the yard looked really good upon completion, but within a few weeks became again something I can not take care of. read more

We hired Cutting Edge to completely redo our front and backyards. We wanted something more drought-resistant that required less maintenance...and they delivered! We wanted something that wasn't too desert-looking with cactus, but had color and trees. Sarah Perez created a beautiful design that had everything we wanted. The cement work by Leo gave us a wider driveway and stepping stones to replace our old, cracked walkway. Cruz and his guys dug up the yard and added raised planters for us to grow vegetables, planted trees and inserted colorful plants surrounded by gravel and mulch. The entire project, once designed, took about two and a half weeks. We've gotten nothing but compliments from our friends and neighbors and it's given us new areas of our property to relax and enjoy. We can't say enough good things about them. Thank you Sarah, Cruz and Leo! read more

Excellent outdoor kitchen installed by Jereme and his crew! Super professional, and courteous! Highly recommended!!

I moved to Long Beach recently, and I knew my landscape needed help, but I didn't know what to do and where to start. So a few searches and a few calls later, I got an estimate from Cutting Edge Landscape Design. Quote/Estimate: Ron Flores came out and a few things struck me 1) The first thing he did was tell me areas that were good and didn't need work instead of upselling me, I thought it was really special that his first focus was saving cost. 2) He heard our ask to lower maintenance, another case where he could have made us dependent on his services. 3) He really seemed to understand what we needed even when we didn't. When we agreed, their office worked incredibly professionally with contracts and approvals. Execution: They came back with a quote and I'd never had this kind of work done. I didn't necessarily know how to evaluate it and so the thought of "trust us", seemed counter-intuitive. However, that is what we did. We trusted Ron. A few things stuck out again. 1) He came out to our home personally 5+ times (that I know of), he was personally accountable to the work 2) We had a small issue with some incidental damage. He could have said it wasn't them, but instead without a question he fixed it and made it better than it was. They did all the work, found some new issues which they fixed at cost (our sprinklers were destroyed) but again barely any upcharge) and finished on time and on budget with only one change. They ended up coming up with some ideas, and one of them was how to address the fireplace. They did an incredible job. I didn't have a vision or a picture of what I wanted, I just knew I didn't like it. They laid down a gas line from our house, set up a fireplace and created a brand new outdoor experience. Quality: We LOVE it. It's incredible now. Ron had a vision and I'm glad we trusted him. He's been out since to check it and he's personally offered advice. There has been no upselling (in fact, he's true to his word he said we won't need help for a year) and they even put up tape to keep dogs out while the DG settles. As new homeowners all we could do is trust (why you are reading this review) as we did not have any clue what we needed, wanted or what we should pay. We were treated with a great outcome and were in good hands the entire time. The value we received was tremendous. read more

Cutting Edge went above and beyond for me. Stuck to my budget, and delivered more value than I could have reasonably expected. The prep work was so thoughtful and considered -- Shirley is wonderful to work with. And the execution was just as high quality, truly some of the best guys I've had work on my home, extremely considerate, careful, and took a lot of pride in their work. They cut no corners even where my budget would've justified it. They continued to come out and support/provide help even after install. A lot of well reviewed contracting services with big internet footprints are huge impersonal businesses that are better at churning reviews than actually doing quality work. Cutting Edge is the opposite. If I need another landscaping service in the future, I will call Cutting Edge without hesitation and have no need for a second quote. Highly recommend. read more

I recently interviewed Shirley Lee from Cutting Edge Landscape Design regarding our yard remodel project. I recommend her highly! Shirley has extensive experience in landscape design and she was able to give sound guidance regarding turf replacement rebates based on her background working with the Municipal Water District of Orange County (MWDOC). She readily shared her insights and knowledge in each of our conversations with energy and clear communication. read more

Got whole yard xeriscaped by these guys in 2020 (great job) but today (2024) they came for free and corrected a sprinkler value that had been shut by other contractors. Saved the whole back yard. Thanks Cruz and Shirley for their fast fix. William N. , Los Alamitos read more

Went to a party recently and was impressed with the outdoor kitchen area designed and built by this company. It had everything one could dream of to host large parties and family gatherings, pizza oven, Santa Maria style bbq, deep fryer, smoker, fridge. The fit and finish looked excellent and the design was great. Reached out for a quote to redo our patio and they were very responsive. Looking forward to our project. read more

Ryan and Sandra of Cutting Edge Landscape Design are an absolute joy to work with. This is a company you use when you're ready to work with a team that is not only professional, but innovative, affordable and most importantly friendly and helpful. Our project was a very difficult one; our backyard had a very dramatic slope that made the prospect of creating a garden for my wife extremely challenging. We had other companies come to look at the site, only to ghost us when it came to trying to get a quote or direction. Ryan was an immediate hit. He provided a calm, patient and knowledgable understanding of building and landscaping that allowed us to trust his decisions and planning on our unique yard. His gifted crew worked diligently from the moment we hired him, start to finish, all day, every day, until the project was done. This is not a company that sends a "B" team while the "A" team works somewhere else. Ryan and his gifted crew are focused solely on your project until the job is done. The finished job? Well, it clearly speaks for itself. Not only do WE love it, but everyone who has come over marvels at the work that Cutting Edge Landscape did to completely transform our backyard. We can't recommend Ryan and Cutting Edge enough! read more

We hired this company to remove the lawn in our front yard and side yard and plant drought-resistant landscaping. But they did not prepare the soil properly and crabgrass returned immediately. Now we have to hire another company to remove all of the new ground cover and dig up the soil and bring in new soil. We were told that this company did not use proper procedures in ensuring the soil was prepared. They refused to fix it. They also installed the drip lines in a haphazard way. I would NEVER recommend them to anyone. Beware. read more

From my first call and I explained my landscaping problem, I had their designer Shirley come out to give me ideas and do a design to help with weed abatement and native plants.

Cruz kept me informed as to what he was doing each step of the way. They were done in the time Shirley estimated. The yard is transformed and I am very happy with the results.

The Cutting Edge just remodeled our backyard and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. Matt and his team kept to our budget and stayed on schedule. Matt explained thoroughly how the project would unfold week by week. We had him draw plans , pull permits, build a large spa, fire pit, planters, grass area, stone and masonry. Very happy to recommend! read more

I paid for a front and back yard hard scape and soft. Matt never finished the job and didn't follow plans. Material bought was cheap and not as agreed. Gate doesn't work. Plants put in not only not as agreed in plans but we're a completely different variety example cactus vs. English garden. Most important never finished job even though he was paid in full. Terrible.. dishonest... poor workmanship... read more

Hello Matt. Why no proposal after visiting my home. Don't promise a bid and not follow through. Why waste my time.

When you own a business, you need to be personable and sell yourself. I'm paying money to get what I want and I need to believe I'm going to get what I want. This company works as if they're doing me the favor by telling me what I want. I'm sure they do good work but I will never take that chance. I don't trust the owner, and how they've been in business this long is beyond me. Maybe they caught him on a good day. read more
