    I love my new gardeners! Juan Rangel is the owner of BloomWorks Landscape. His crew of men and the…read moreadministrative team he has working for him are all wonderful. Juan is meticulous and highly detailed. He mapped my irrigation, and created a thorough plant map, with photos. My weekly maintenance crew, Lissandro and Rodrigo, are enthusiastic, hard working, and fun to have here. Martin and Andy, who are not part of my regular crew, came to help after hours when I had a planting emergency, and stayed until they got the job done. They, too, were cheerful, hard working, and fun. I have never had a better team caring for my garden. I recommend them highly. BloomWorks Landscape - (818) 522-2476

    Bloom Works absolutely saved the day for me…read more I am an event planner and was in a major time crunch after an event when the company that was originally supposed to handle the hay clean-up from a snow activation completely walked away from the job. The situation was urgent and my client was (understandably) breathing down my neck to get it handled immediately. I reached out to Bloom Works (they're also our personal home gardeners and were very happy with the work they do for us there!) and they could not have been more responsive. They jumped into action, showed up quickly, and handled the clean-up efficiently and thoroughly. The end result was fantastic, and my client was genuinely impressed not only with the outcome, but with the professionalism and quality of the team who arrived on site. If you need a crew that is reliable, fast, and truly delivers, Bloom Works is the real deal. I'm beyond grateful and will absolutely call them again for my event needs!

    I can't say enough about Helen and her team. For what it's worth, when I first came across her yelp…read morepage, I figured she was probably out of my price range just by the quality of work that I was seeing in photos of her work. I was so glad that I reached out anyway just to ask, because it turned out her bid was very much in line with the other quotes I was getting, while clearly being a step above in quality. Helen and her team helped with a relatively large project - rehabbing a slope behind our property that had become barren, building a set of staircases, and replanting our front yard space. From start to finish, Helen was a joy to work with, continually going above and beyond to make sure the project went as well as it possibly could, all while being conscious of our budget. She was collaborative, informative, kind, and generally just a pleasure to work with, and every member of her team was the same. I've already recommended her to family members and neighbors, and am excited to keep working with her for years to come.

    What a treat to work with Helen's team! We wanted to replace our (dead) lawn and parkway with a…read moremore drought tolerant landscape and Helen's vision did not disappoint. Her team tore out a bizarre chunk of cement we had previously and created an entirely new walkway and installed a new irrigation system beyond the obvious plant/gravel facelift. The whole project was incredibly smooth and communication was excellent. We even came in under the originally projected budget! (How many companies actually tell you when your project ends up costing less?) Would 1000% recommend Celtic and would work with again. Can't wait to see it all grow in!

    This review is for Michael Gabso and his team. I haven't encountered a more professional team…read morethroughout this whole process of renovating my front porch. With a lot of contractors, there would be a light of hands on management in the day to day but with MG Contruction, they ran the whole operations seaminglessly while keeping me up to date on the progress. Having been busy at work, they save me a lot of my time and hassle from having to spend too much time reviewing this project. They are well organized and Michael definitely has been doing this for a long time. The pricing for his company is more than fair for the high quality of work. Both James and Max were great when I reached out with questions, they were very responsive. A big thank you to his awesome team who helped build the deck and showed up everyday with a smile. One of the reason why I went with MG Construction was because Michael's eagle eye was able to notice certain detail of the job that that the other contractors who provided bids overlooked. I rarely provide reviews for company but MG Construction certainly deserves this one. I will definitely use this company for my future landscape projects.

    Pacific Outdoor completely redid our backyard, front yard landscaping, put pavers on the driveway,…read morebuilt us a pool, and we couldn't be happier!! They transformed the outside of our home, and it now looks and feels like a magazine spread! Just today, I received compliments from two separate strangers on the front yard. We constantly get compliments on the appearance of our home. Samantha was the landscape architect who created the design, and it was amazing to see her lay out the vision. She saved us space in ways I definitely couldn't have conceived of on my own. She said the remodel would be like doubling our living space, and she was right! Scott oversaw the construction from start to finish. He was very attentive and obviously cared about and was fully invested in the success of the project. He had an expertise with plants and gave great guidance to give me the colors I wanted in plants that would work for our space and the SoCal heat. I am constantly smiling at the plants Scott suggested. They are thriving, and I wouldn't change a thing. The crew was respectful, clean and did a beautiful job. It was a long project, but Pacific Outdoor kept their initial timeline. Our main reason for going with Pacific Outdoor was that they were a one-stop shop. They could do everything. They truly delivered, and it is better than we ever imagined! It was so easy to look at their choices and select what we wanted. They had a wide variety of design choices. We replaced most of the grass in the back with their pavers and used the same pavers for our driveway. They look fantastic. We have a neighbor that had Pacific Outdoor build them a firepit that they love. We received great guidance and attention from the full team all along the way. They didn't quit until the project was finished to our satisfaction. As I float in our beautiful pool and eat tangerines off of my new tree, I feel like a queen and couldn't be happier after choosing Pacific Outdoor! Our family highly recommends them!

(They had also done an excellent job on the pool deck five years earlier, before I knew I was going to fill in the pool.) I have been very pleased with the results, which have really elevated my enjoyment of my home's outdoor areas. I would also caution anyone considering going with System Pavers to steer clear of those crooks. I wasted thousands of dollars having them do a terrible job on my pool deck, and had to have Pacific rip out their work and fix it. It was an expensive mistake that I hope to save others from repeating. If I had gone with Pacific in the first place, I would have saved lots of money and hassle. Some pictures of the driveway, patio, and now-defunct pool deck are included here.
