When hiring any contractor, you always hope for the best, even though it rarely turns out that way. In this case, Ecoscapes is indeed, the company of your dreams. Michael the owner and Peggy the designer make a great team. They listened to what my wife and I wanted from our landscape, and then delivered the results. The installation crew was also terrific, taking great care with the drip irrigation system and the plantings. Even more, Peggy checked on our garden for weeks and weeks after completion, and Michael dropped by to make sure everything was working properly. Additionally, they designed and installed a metal woven fence that turned out to be a work of art. Everyone showed great flexibility throughout the project, and the projected costs never changed...which were very reasonable to start with. If you are shopping around for a great, reliable landscaping company, look no further. You just found it! read more

We highly recommend EcoScapes as a Landscape Architect and Irrigation Specialists. We have used them for two projects: 1) a two-level rock wall terrace on our hillside that included plantings and an irrigation system in the back of our property. The two man crew that built the wall did meticulous work and we couldn't be more pleased with the result; and 2) a rainwater harvesting system and terraced garden on the side of our property. The installation crew again were very polite and hard-working. They did a great job blending the retention tank into the landscape. The terraced stone garden is beautiful even before the plants have been added (will be done this spring). Michael and Peggy spent time working on permits with the City and were frequently at the job site making sure everything was going according to plan. It is a pleasure working with them. read more

We highly recommend Ecoscapes for southwestern landscaping in the Santa Fe style. They worked with us on our landscaping plan every step of the way, including conceptual definition, irrigation plan, hardscape, plant selection, installation, and maintenance. We installed our landscaping one area at a time over a 2 - 3 year period. We were so pleased with the appearance at each step, we couldn't wait to install the next area. Michael Nelson is a genius! We hoped for a southwestern - zen fusion, and Michael executed it brilliantly. The end result always exceeded our expectations, and fit the environment so well one guest asked if the plants and boulders were here when we bought the land. The Ecoscapes crew is throughly professional, punctual, responsive, and reasonably priced. We wouldn't use anyone else! read more

Ecoscapes people were totally awesome. They are flexible on design of landscaping, they work with you, and have great ideas that you see come into reality. We wanted both hardscaping, building (ramada/coyote fence) and softscaping - masonry and plantings and trees, plus the irrigation systems - they do it all! We had a tough space to put in two 1200 gal cisterns and they got it done. Very responsive in terms of scheduling & completion and reliable. Environmentally they are top grade - aware and careful. The irrigation system is amazing & tailored for our plantings/trees. Quality - We get a million compliments on how our patio looks, and we love it! We are already thinking of our next project with them. read more
