Starting in May 2024, after 50 years living here we decided to redo our yard and started a major renovation of our yard. We regraded, , replaced main water lines, replaced concrete sidewalks. Then we did pavers, lots of pavers and stacked block walls. Finally it was time to do the lawn. We picked Ed as he is local to us and he has a nice website presence. It's been just over a year now since I had Ed's crew come out and do to irrigation and sod installation. The first problem that I notice was he used 1/2" PVC for the sprinkler lines. In all the sprinkler installs I've seen on jobs I've never seen anyone use any thing but ¾" except for risers. Turns out "RainBird" actually recommends 1" PVC. When I called attention to this Ed said it was fine as we have good water pressure. I figured OK I'll let it go. A second issue came up when they were doing my small side yard. In the course of the major grading and new walls I cut off the ends of the side yard sprinklers so that when it was time to do the sprinklers the old system could be tied into and would save a lot of digging. His guys started trenching and I told them that all they had to do was dig back two feet from the corners and tie in they just ignored me! Now before you lay new sod you need to be sure that any old remnants of grass needs to be removed or sprayed to kill it off. Ed told me he sprayed but as they start to lay the sod I can see there is still a few patches of old grass and it's green, not dead. Now when I had the initial major grading done it was only to rough grade and then Ed's trenching machine tore it up even more. So as his guys are laying the sod I can see they are laying sod right on top of rocks, some as big as 3" but they keep on working. They obviously didn't do any fine grading! So now the sod is all laid down and we water for a few days and when I finally start walking on it I find the ground is lumpy and has some good sized dips in it. I also notice the sod at the sidewalk, because they didn't do any fine grading, is now sloped down to the sidewalk where water will run off the lawn and create a river if we get rain. Again they didn't do any fine grading so water wouldn't run onto lawn instead of the walkway! One other area next to the paver area at the small side yard I find about a 4" drop off! This is a hazard. When I called Ed on these points he said when it rains the ground will level out. As the days go by I'm checking to see how the sprinklers are working and notice they need adjusting. I get Ed out to make some adjustments. I also begin to notice that a couple of them are getting covered in mud as they are set too low into the ground. When I take a closer look at the sprinklers and try to identify them, I see they are older units. Now all these things start me to research the sprinklers used. According to "RainBird" they are about twenty years out of production. More researching and I find that CA has rules for sprinklers due to water conservation as of 2022. Everything installed does NOT meet the new requirements for NEW installations! The last time I called Ed was in November to address things and he stated he'd get back to me in January. Never saw or heard from him again. So to summarize, we have a lumpy yard with ankle twisting dips and sprinklers that use too much water. Also because the old grasses weren't totally removed I have at least 3 types of grass growing in the new lawn. ********************************************************** Some back story on me: I'm a retired, fifty years, licensed General Contractor who's been involved in all types of home renovations over the decades.

I'm really disappointed in how this turned out. read more

I recently purchased a home in Glendale, in early January. The previous owners had moved out of state in September 2024, leaving the property vacant and in the care of the realtor for months. After the purchase went through, I had some work done on the home for a few months, and finally moved in in mid-March. I noticed that the landscaping was still being maintained, it was a mystery by who, considering I had not hired anyone. Once I finally moved in, I saw the landscapers on my Ring doorbell. The next week, I took the day off of work, and asked them- who's been paying you? The workers said they asked the owner, Ed, who said "Don't worry about it." I got the business phone number from the side of the truck, and left a message. The workers left without doing any work. Almost 24 hours later, Ed finally called me back, saying I now owed him two months worth of landscaping (he had mailed me bills, and now expected to be paid). I had never talked to him before, agreed to work being done, etc. Considering this to be super shady business practices, I decided not to hire him and will be taking my business elsewhere. read more

We had a wooden deck but it was so worn down we stopped using it. Ed was working on another home down street when I became aquatinted with him. He came by and gave us a quote and some conceptual designs. He was easy to work with and extremely professional. In the process we got our front porch redone to match the back. We were happy to work with Ed and his team. We definitely recommend his business. Thanks Ed! We are excited to host some summer BBQ's on our new deck! read more

Thank You, Ed for your wonderful services. You went above and beyond for our front & back yard landscaping, driveway and everything else. We just can't thank you enough! read more

We solicited five bids for a backyard renovation that included, among many things, redoing a pool and deck, constructing a patio shade structure and shoring up a hill at the back of our property. Ed's estimate was not the lowest, but we were impressed with his responsiveness and willingness to talk things through. Ultimately, we went with him and we're glad we did. We had plans drawn up by a landscape architect and, working with those plans, Ed developed approaches and solutions that were sensible and, in some cases, even better than those proposed by the architect. Once Ed and his crew started, he was at the house every day to keep us apprised and oversee what was going on. The project was completed within about six weeks, which we didn't expect (we thought it would take much longer). We did suffer from a bit of "scope creep" (actually, a lot of scope creep) that eventually encompassed items, including the front yard, we didn't anticipate undertaking, but we're glad we did. If there is one thing to watch out for here: Ed is very gungho and will make suggestions, but make sure he doesn't start on them until he absolutely has your permission. In addition to doing such a nice job, Ed has been tremendous with the follow-up, continuing to check in to make sure everything is working out. We were so pleased with his work that we recently hired him for more - and this time we (and he) pretty much stuck to our budget. read more

Ed recently renovated our entire backyard, including a large paver patio, gazebo, sports court, Trex deck, and driveway. We are pleased with the results and believe the price was reasonable. Ed and his crew were there every weekday without fail. Ed is honest and cares genuinely about making his clients happy. I have worked with people who disappear when the last check is written, but I am confident Ed will answer my call if I ever need to reach him. I would (and have) recommended him to friends. read more

Disappointed that Ed did not show up for a scheduled appointment but texted 45 minutes before appointment time to say, "I am not gonna be coming out I don't wanna have to drive those freeways there I have a big truck sorry" read more

We recently completed a front yard landscaping project with Ed and am very happy with the final result. I had very specific ideas for the dry riverbed that I wanted as the focus of the yard- but Ed and his team brought it to life. Ed was very accommodating to the project revisions that I suggested along the way and always told me that they were "just rocks that could be moved". Thanks again. read more

We finished our project with Ed in the beginning of the summer. I waited a while to write the review wanting to make sure everything is ok. So far, this is a trustworthy business. The job was not perfect, but Ed has been willing to make things right coming back to fix them and working out the kinks. I appreciate him standing behind his job. Ed is a easy to deal with. He may not be the least expensive, but it's reasonable. read more

Ed and his crew just completed a large landscaping project at our home in La Crescenta. The project transformed nearly every square foot of exterior space on our property. Included in the project were hard and softscape demolition, grading, decorative concrete forming, pouring and finishing, fence and gate post excavation and setting, pergola post and footing construction, stucco covered bench construction and finishing, stone pathway creation, recessed Bocce Court creation, edging, planting, softscaping, lighting, and irrigation. My wife and I are very pleased with the results and we thoroughly enjoyed working with Ed and his crew. From inception to completion, Ed was extremely generous with his time and his vast wealth of knowledge. I am a very meticulous person who painstakingly deliberates over design and material selection. Ed met with me numerous times prior to construction to discuss the pros and cons of the various options we were considering. Likewise, during construction, Ed took the time to ensure that everything was satisfactory - even for someone as critical and picky as myself! I'm certain that my meticulous nature made me a difficult client to work with, but Ed never made me feel this way. He simply took the time to ensure that the job was done right and that I was satisfied. Now that the project is complete, we've hired Ed to oversee the weekly maintenance of the landscape. We're confident that his crew will keep everything looking great and that he will promptly address any routine maintenance or repair issues that might arise. We highly recommend Ed and are very pleased to have worked with him. read more

Professional - great to work with - outstanding results. Ed's Landscaping had worked on three of my neighbor's houses, so after interviewing several landscaping companies, we decided to give them a go for our paver driveway and backyard, custom gates, tree removal, hillside landscape walls, planting, and lighting. What set Ed apart from the other guys is his great ideas and attitude. He showed sincere interest in implementing our plans, while working within our budget and schedule. He has completely transformed our place and both we and our neighbors can't believe the amazing difference. read more

Completely satisfied. They came the day after I called & gave a good and fair estimate for updating my irrigation system. The following day they showed up and worked hard the entire day, finishing the job. They did exactly what I asked for and then came back to make a few minor adjustments after a few days. Very well worth it as I was losing hundreds of gallons of water per day with my old system. I live in Pasadena part time and would highly recommend 'Bryan's Landscaping' to anyone looking for quality service. i wish they serviced the desert area too!since this review I've had my lawn redone to be drought proof Brian took out my lawn and installed a nice gravel. He had good ideas and was timely and his service. Again Brian came through for me. read more

I've never written a five star review before, but the service I received from Ed's Landscaping was exceptional. Because I travel a great deal for business, I don't have the time for late arrivals or work having to be done again. The plumber who modified and replaced my entire irrigation system was professional, courteous, prompt and thorough. The work was all done in a day (for a big yard, I expected longer). He returned (no charge) to check on the system and provided a few tweaks. It has, in the two months since, worked perfectly. The water hitting structures has been completely redirected, and my water use is now less than a third of what it once was. Furthermore, the total price was less than what his competitors bid. I am a very happy customer! read more

My first nightmare contractor. He built a retaining wall for me. The wall looks OK, but he skirted paying the City its $44 dollar contractor's fee and did not build it to California or City code - so I have to add concrete to fix it.. He ordered too much 50-50 mix and backfilled behind the wall with it an then hid it under a layer of dirt. I asked him not to dump his mix first on the brick part of the driveway - you can guess where he dumped it - power washing hasn't been able to get off the discoloration. His trucks leaked oil on the same driveway - at leas that will fade. He had extra concrete mix which he left on a walkway - it solidified in the first rain and ruined that area. He came unprepared and was forever borrowing wood and tools. When the job was done, he requested to leave extra concrete blocks, cement mixes and other stuff blocking my driveway for two weeks until his next job and got surly when I of course said "no". read more
