I wanted walking places, sitting areas and succulents, as well as an herb garden and vegetable garden. Success in all areas. There were challenges with sewer line problems in the middle of the project and the crew worked around this work very professionally, even as I was having a melt down. Steve and his crew are very professional and his enthusiasm for the project showed through. I cannot recommend Steve enough.

From the initial consultation to the final cleanup, they were professional, reliable, and incredibly thorough. The new landscape--with lush plantings, an improved irrigation system, and beautiful boulders--looks fantastic and has completely transformed our yard. Steve was on-site with his crew every day, ensuring every plant was placed precisely and the boulders were within a 1/16 inch of perfection. He has an amazing eye for creating a soft, rhythmic feel in the landscape. The crew arrived on time, paid close attention to detail, and left the work area spotless each day. Communication was excellent--clear estimates, thoughtful design ideas, and prompt updates. It's clear they take pride in their craftsmanship. Highly recommend for anyone looking to elevate their outdoor space.

From day one, they have made us feel heard, supported, and genuinely cared for. Their communication is second to none--they respond almost immediately, set up a family group chat to keep everyone informed, and are always available to answer questions. The renderings Gabriel creates are absolutely stunning, incredibly lifelike, and they offer unlimited revisions until everything is exactly right. The quality of their planning and attention to detail is exceptional. Tony immediately scheduled a meeting with the city inspector to build a relationship and ensure every aspect of the project is done correctly and up to code from the very beginning, which gave us tremendous confidence. The job site has been immaculate, the professionalism has been outstanding, and it's obvious this family-owned business truly takes pride in their work and their clients. We are still early in the project, but based on our experience so far, they have exceeded every expectation. A true 10 out of 10 experience, and we would highly recommend them. I will post an update with pictures soon

We hired them to do a complete renovation of our backyard. This is our vacation home and we stressed to them how we wanted the work to be done while we were away so that we could enjoy our vacation home the limited time we have. And what did they do? The exact opposite. No work would be done for weeks at a time - as reported to us by our neighbors - and then when they knew we would be at the home, they would show up and do work. This situation repeated itself for 2 years. 2 YEARS. We also ended up having a problem with the city of Encinitas as we were told by the company that they took care of all the permits necessary. They didn't and then we had the city Planning Dept involved in every step of the project. So much time and money wasted. And the stress involved was over the top. Disgusted with Gabriel and how we were treated. This was a $150,000 project.

Small yard? No worries, Brookside has your back!…read more If you buy new construction these days you can pretty much kiss that yard space goodbye. Finding ourselves in this situation, we needed a team that could transform our "cozy" yard into a comfortable yet elevated outdoor living space. Enter Brookside. You know that feeling when you hire someone to do a big home project and hope that everything goes well, but you kind of hold your breath in the event that something goes awry? That won't happen with Brookside. From our initial call to the thanks-for-everything completion hand shake, they didn't skip a beat. Everything went SO smooth and communication was on point the entire time. Brookside is a well oiled machine. The conversations between us, Brooks and Jenny, and the crew were fluid the entire time and no one was ever in the dark about the plan. On top of that, everyone was so personable and professional. These guys are hard workers and leave your space clean and organized at the end of every day. We were so happy with how our space turned out. Brookside took our basic ideas for hardscape and softscape to the next level and created a beautiful designer yard. We would hire Brookside again in a heartbeat- and you should too!

Brookside Landscape Design did a phenomenal job. Our backyard went from the typical small, suburban…read morebackyard to a sophisticated and luscious landscape that looks like it belongs as a hotel lounge. Brooks and Jenny at Brookside have such a creative and and beautiful aesthetic that we never could have imagined on our own. Their attention to detail is amazing, and their design concept was truly everything we wanted. Even though we have a small yard, they were able to make it look so much larger by moving things around and creating a better flow. It seriously looks like we added square footage. All of the plants that they chose for our yard are so beautiful and unique. Everyone that comes by wants to know what each plant is called because they aren't the very common yard plants that everyone has...they are so interesting! They chose the foliage specifically for what they knew would grow well in our area and with the sunlight for each side of the house. Thoughtfulness went into every aspect of each item they added...from the plants, to the wood and stone for the built in bbq, the special market lights (that are really unique and fun), all the way to the treated concrete. Everything looks like a step above! The work process was easy, and the crews that showed up every day were gracious, kind, friendly and hard working. Over the weeks we got to know the workers, and it was a sad day when it finished and we knew they would not be showing up again every morning. Even our 5 year old knew their names and would announce to us each day who had shown up in the morning. Jenny and Brooks were also very friendly and kind, and were a joy to work with. Such a great team. I have already been showing off their hard work to our neighbors, who are very impressed with the amazing results! Hopefully they will be in our neighborhood working again soon!

We got excellent value for what we paid for. We requested the river rocks in our walkway, the 3-hole putting green, new pavers for entertainment, and a pergola for shade. They did an amazing job and I definitely recommend them to anyone looking to remodel or renovate their backyard or front yard!

We feel like we're on vacation every day spending time in our backyard! Tristan designed and oversaw our project and he was a pleasure to work with and did a fantastic job. His design was way better than what we'd been thinking, it looks so good. He was always easy to get ahold of, was really patient with the various changes we kept making, and made sure that every detail was taken care of so that we were totally happy with the end result. I also really appreciated how he always suggested cost effective options to help us stick to our budget. And to top it all off, at the end they realized we'd overpaid by $1000 and sent us a check we hadn't even asked for or realized we were due! We highly recommend Modern Yardz; I don't write a lot of reviews but Tristan and his team did such a great job that they deserved a glowing review.
