When moving to the city of Oakley, our home is a new construction so our backyard is all dirt and we had to submit an approval to the HOA. After living in our home for a year, it was time to redesign our backyard. I submitted a price quote request on Yelp and received a few responses to schedule a consultation. After meeting with other landscape companies, my choice was to go with Alan at Green Planet Landscape. It wasn't just about the price quote, but Alan's thoughtful ideas and recommendation made us trust him even more with the project. He would make sure our backyard would look amazing and presentable. He drew a sketch design for us to submit to the HOA. After we got an approval from the HOA for the project, Alan scheduled us within a few days. Alan first introduced me to Angel to have him do a walkthrough around the backyard. We had them install stone walls, pavers, artificial turf, and planter beds. The project lasted about 3 days and they did a fantastic job on transforming our backyard. My wife is so in love with plants and was very happy they planted her plants in the soil. Our dogs were so excited and love playing on the turf. I would highly recommend Green Planet Landscape. We finally are comfortable to contact them in the near future. read more

Green Planet Landscaping has earned a Five-Star rating for their installation of the artificial lawn in our father's front yard. The natural grass was hard to maintain, since the sprinklers were not functioning properly, but the artificial lawn has vastly improved the curb appeal of our father's property. Without increasing estimated costs, Green Planet Landscaping surprised us with an additional amenity that actually rectified an issue raised by the local HOA. Thus, we are 110 percent satisfied with their service. Inasmuch as I live several hours away from Brentwood and Discovery Bay, I did not have the pleasure of meeting Alan in person. However, our communications were very effective and I am delighted to have completed this task as our father's Power-of-Attorney. read more

Alan, Angel, and his crew were fantastic. Transparent about costs in the initial quote and gave an accurate timeline as to when the project would finish. We had our backyard done with them and they did a phenomenal job. They estimated this project would take about 2 weeks, but it only took 1.5 weeks to complete. Angel and his crew were very hard working, professional, and communicative with us if we wanted some adjustments to our backyard. The attention to detail such as making sure there was drainage and having the water flow a certain direction really sold me. While the price is higher than most places I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade their backyard as they really put in the effort to build it to your expectations and more. read more

Hands down, THE BEST landscape designers!! I don't even know where to begin. It's landscape designers such as Alan and his team that make the world a more beautiful place! I had been wanting a pathway built leading from our front door to the sidewalk for a good couple years now. We were originally planning on using the landscapers that designed our backyard a couple years back, however, after having a less than favorable experience with them when they came back to do our side yard and our front yard last year, we decided to look elsewhere. After finding Alan 's landscaping company on yelp, and being so impressed with the reviews and pictures of his landscaping work he's done throughout the bay area, I decided I would bookmark him to have him come out to do a quote in the future. Fast forward to the future, I set up an appointment for Alan to come out to give us a design and quote. Alan was extremely personable and friendly from the beginning. I gave him my ideas and vision of what I wanted. Alan took my vision along with his experience and skills and designed and executed something far better than I could ever have dreamed or envisioned. Alan and his extremely talented crew, completely revamped our entire front yard and elevated it to an absolutely breathtakingly beautiful landscaped front yard. Alan 's crew paid so much attention to detail and design and did a thorough outstanding job from beginning to end. I feel so incredibly thankful that I found Green Planet Landscaping. Thanks to Alan and his team, we get to enjoy this breathtakingly beautiful landscaped front yard for years to come. And there is absolutely no other landscape designer we will be using other than Alan and his team for all future projects!! Thank you for bringing this front yard to life! read more

Green Planet Landscape - They did the turf section and the concrete with the joints - Landscaping Near Me

We recently moved into a 55+ gated community in Brentwood, and it was necessary to tear out ALL of the existing landscaping and install new. Upon recommendation from two separate neighbors whose yards we liked, we called Green Planet. I'm probably not the easiest client to work with, because I am knowledgeable about plants and know exactly what I want. Alan and Angel delivered on all counts! They were patient, courteous, and respectful of my vision. Once we got approval of the final plan, they went to work and Oh My Goodness... they were fast! The crew worked so hard, they were timely every morning, and they did a great job! I felt it best to request a few minor "field changes" to the original plan, and they were more than happy to accommodate. My wife and I are very happy with the results, and would recommend Green Planet without reservation. Thank you!! read more

Alan had landscaped a couple of our neighbor's front yards and we liked what he did. We had a quote from another company but Alan made a better impression on us with his knowledge of materials and plants. It didn't hurt that his quote was much more reasonable as well. With the initial drawing, there were a couple of things we didn't care for and asked to make changes. Alan was very accommodating and did so without any pushback or protests. They stated the job on a Monday and we're 90% finished on Saturday! The turf was delayed but when it was delivered, the crew came out and finished up that day. In comparison, our backyard took about 10 weeks to complete. Angel manages the crew but does much of the actual work himself. He has an eye as to how to place features, like the boulders and mounds to make the yard more interesting. Like Alan, he was very accommodating when we asked to move a couple of the lights and a boulder. We are very happy with the finished project! When the job was complete, Alan came and walked us through the yard, telling us what to expect from each plant and how to take care of them, again demonstrating his knowledge of what he's working with. read more

Green Planet did an excellent job with our turf project. The men who installed it were very professional, kept everything clean and did it in two days. Watersavers doesn't use crumb rubber like some other brands. This is the one that is good for the sake of the environment and safe for kids and pets. We really like the results. Alan helped design our yard and we appreciated his expertise and advice we needed. read more

Green Planet Landscape - Watersavers Premium Artificial Turf with a 6" concrete edger. 408 sq ft. 18year MFG warranty. - Landscaping Near Me

After living in our new home for 5 years, it was time to landscape the backyard. It was something I had attempted to do myself, starting a project but abandoning it a few months later. It didn't help that many "fly by night" contractors were trying to push their companies when we first moved in and were burned by two different individuals. However, I felt time it was time to install landscaping in the front and back yards. I had reached out to a few different local landscaping companies, one that came via recommendation and others, like Green Planet I found online and found favorable after reading reviews. While I wasn't completely sure what I wanted, I used previous estimates when Alan stopped by to draw up plans and his estimate. In the backyard, I wanted to fill in the remaining dirt with a patio and walkway that would run the length of a 12'x'16' cage and to provide a 2-foot border off the fence to add shrubbery around the patio. The front yard had been devoid of plants for about 3 years, the poor landscaping put in by the developer had not been properly set up on the irrigation timer and the bark had long since faded. I removed all the bushes and trees in the front yard to help save on the overall cost. This was something I could do, even if it took me a bit longer. In place, I wanted to go with a xeriscape, all 3/4" Lodi or Lodi Cobble, with a few assorted, drought tolerant plants and some large (200 lb.) boulders. While I had removed much of the drip irrigation lines, the main feed point was still intact. Alan's estimate was favorable, when compared to a few of the others I had received. After looking over finances, we texted and emailed a few times and I had changed my initial plans. I asked Alan if he still wanted the job, but only for the backyard. While his price was more than competitive, I looked at what I wanted done in the front yard and figured it was something I could not, although not as quickly as a landscape company could. Alan accepted and we agreed on the price for the backyard. I probably should of asked a few more questions when it came to the paver patio. One of the previous landscape companies noted they were going to dig down 4 inches and build the paver patio up. The first day work started I came home to see a few inches of sub-base and Green Plant laying pavers on top. While it wasn't what I expected to see, the final project looks great! There were a few other issues along the way. First, they reused the 1/2" bender board, which wasn't straight! I left a message for Alan, along with images and he responded saying they would remove the bender board and replace with pressure treated 2"x4" pieces of wood. Much like the final project, this border looked great and it was straight. While I thought Alan and I were on the same page when it came to the walkway, one of my raised planter boxes didn't line up with the cage and tile ended up being placed in and around the side of the box, locking it in place, which will make it very difficult to upgrade or replace in the coming year. I had sent a picture to make sure the walkway was going to be a constant width, but got something different. In hindsight, it's a minor issue but the end result does look good. The last issue came the day he asked for the second (of two) installments for payment. I asked when the bushes were going to be planted and was told we had not agreed to that for the backyard. Thankfully I had the initial contract that was drawn up and sent it to him. Without question or hesitation, he order 10 plants and had his crew there in a few days digging holes and planting the greenery. All in all, I am very happy with the work that was done to upgrade the backyard. While there were issues, I feel I did get what I paid for and it really does complement the house and provide an area to relax in. read more

During the recent rainstorms we found ourselves in a very difficult situation. We had just moved into our new home and were just settling in after a tough move. At first, we noticed the underground drains we are running slow but after the rain picked up our backyard began flooding so badly that I had to dig a big hole and install a large sump pump to keep water from entering our home. After furthur investigation I found the 3 inch drains completely full of tree roots. I tried calling several other companies for help and couldn't find anyone willing to do the job. I spoke with Allan and he said he had just the guys for this type of work. He put together a quote for us and upon our approval sent Angel and his crew over the very next day. Buy the second day all trenching was done through our grass by hand and new piping and drains installed. On top of that. the sod was carefully placed back over the trenches and everything cleaned up so well one could hardly tell the whole yard had been totally dug up. Had working honest men with pride in their work! read more

I contacted Alan with Green Planet landscape regarding my yard which required dirt removal (tons), adding concrete, drains, and a new retaining wall. I took my time and obtained a lot of estimates since this was a big job. Out of the 12-15 estimates Alan was the most competitive price. Alan also had the best reviews and best customer satisfaction. I am very OCD and knew I wanted someone who could work with me to make sure all my needs were met. Alan was responsive and reliable during the process. Alan answered all my questions in a timely manner. I was very pleased with the hard working individuals who worked on my yard and Alan. I went from having a small yard to now having a moderate sized yard for my kids to play in and to hold family events. Alan even fixed some concrete issues a previous company created years ago on previous concrete. Alan is a man of integrity and places the customer first. I am very happy and highly recommend Alan and Green Planet Landscape. Take a look at the before and after photos of the great work they completed. read more

Months before moving into our new dev, I knew we had to do something grand for the mound of dirt in the backyard once we moved in. I did a ton of research on local landscapers, made calls to different companies, but Alan and his team at Green Planet Landscape stood out from everyone. Alan helped come up with a design that had both landscape and hardscape that was suited to what we were looking for. What he came up with was perfect and the final outcome was even more superb! It's everything we asked for and more. Completely happy with the final outcome! Our yard is now a sanctuary where we can relax or entertain in. If you're looking for an awesome design for your front or backyards, Alan and his team will leave you completely satisfied. I'll definitely recommend him to anyone who asks for landscaping needs. Kudos to Alan and his hardworking team! read more

Alan and his crew did an incredible job with converting my ugly useless backyard into a beautiful extension to my home with my new pavers patio!

Thank you Alan and your crew for a job well done!!! I highly recommend Green Planet! A++ Oh, quick note...they were totally compliant with all COVID policies and wearing masks.. read more

Great experience from start to finish. Alan is very responsive and great to work with. Requested a quote through Yelp and received a callback the next day. I was able to schedule a consultation the same week. We started with a dirt yard and wanted a simple design that included a concrete patio, concrete paver walkway (Alan helped us decide on the paver design), grass, rock, and bark; we will be adding plants later ourselves (he provided great suggestions for plants as well). The quote was reasonable and we liked our rapport with Alan so we we decided to move forward with him. Alan said we were about 4-6 weeks to start our project, and it turned out to be about 4 weeks later that we received a call from him that they could start the following morning. Time estimate to complete the project was 2 weeks, but Alan's team completed it in just 4 days! His team was very professional and showed up bright and early each day. We contacted Alan a few weeks after completion because we realized there were a few areas where rock depth was a little shallow, so he had one of his guys come by to take a look at how much rock would be needed and then return to install the additional rock. He has also since come by to fix a small blemish on one of the pavers and while he was here asked if we were still happy with everything else and also provided suggestions on getting rid of the nut grass / weeds that have since popped up on our lawn. Some contractors have a tendency be difficult to get hold of or just disappear completely once the project is done and paid for, but this is far from the the case with Alan. Would highly recommend Green Planet Landscape. read more

We purchased a new home in Brentwood that had a builder installed front yard, but no back / side yards other than fencing. We met with several landscape design pro's and after meeting with Alan we felt we had a match. Alan designed a back / side yard, with hardscape, plantings, artifical turf, etc that met our requirements, then came up with a plan to redo the existing front yard (on a corner lot) to round out the project. Allan and his crew, headed up by Angel, spent a bit over 5 weeks tearing out the existing hardscape and plants and recreating our yard. Mid way during the install we decided that one of our ideas was not going to work and the team made a pivot and changed the design of one of our planting areas without blinking. We so much enjoyed our new yard over the summer / Fall that we had Alan come back and remake another section of our front yard that we had decided to wait on for a while. We can't say enough about the dedication of the team to getting things right. We highly recommend Alan and Green Planet for your landscape needs. read more

We recently hired Green Planet to install backyard landscaping in our new home in Brentwood and could not be happier with the result. Alan and his crew were great to work with. During our initial visit with Alan he listened to our initial design ideas and offered feedback on what would work and what wouldn't in our space. He was super friendly and knowledgeable and once we were done he went to his car and wrote up the quote on the spot. His pricing came in within our budget and we gave him the job. We figured it would be 2 to 3 weeks before they could start but got a call 2 days later that they had an opening in their calendar and could start the next morning. Angel and the crew showed up promptly at 8am the next day along with Alan to mark out where everything was going. Angel was great along with all of the team that worked on our landscaping. Incredibly hardworking and friendly, the team checked in when they had questions or wanted confirmation before they placed something to make sure we were all on the same page. They took care with everything they did and paid attention to detail. When it was all done I noticed that one of the plants we wanted was not quite in the area we had discussed and Alan agreed to move it to a new area with no fuss. Other than that we love the work that they did and cannot recommend them enough. If you want a great experience with having your landscaping done you should contact Alan and Green Planet Landscaping. read more

Alan and team did an AMAZING job! My wife and I originally got our design for our new home from Yardzen and they sent us a local vendor who was very nice. However, that particular vendor charged so much for what we wanted, we decided to look at a few other alternatives. We found Alan with Green Planet and we couldn't have been happier with our decision! Prompt, on time, not only was he able to do our Yardzen design, he was able to add more customization for a lot cheaper than the vendor Yardzen originally selected for us.

Green Planet Landscape did an excellent job on our front yard landscape. From start to finish, they worked very hard everyday until the project was complete. We've had other Landscape companies in the past that said they were going to come and never showed up for days. The communication was great and Alan always responded to our needs. Angel was Alan's right man that manages the crew but also worked real hard with them. He has the knowledge of where to place the rocks and plants to make it look just right. Communication with Angel was great too! Our Front yard looks so amazing! All the neighbors are giving us compliments on it. We highly recommend them for all your Landscape needs. read more

Alan and Angel are great business men! I first met them about 18 years ago when they landscaped my yard and for many years people complemented our landscaping. After 18 years with many drought years and increasing water bills, we decided we needed to re-landscape with drought tolerant plant material. I had multiple bids and coincidentally one was from Alan. Alan's bid was very competitive and he was able to visualize what we were looking for. The result was a beautiful drought tolerant landscape that has received great attention and complements, see photos. The team of Alan, Angel and their crew was great. They were very respectful of our property, efficient and moved quickly from start to finish. I highly recommend Green Planet Landscaping. read more

We chose Alan Arnold, Green Planet Landscaping, because they did a wonderful job landscaping our daughter and son-in-law's new home in Brentwood. Alan came and made some great suggestions. We had our front porch tiled, added some cement and new landscaping to our front yard, installed artificial grass in our side yard and redid the pots and plants on our deck.

We had Green Planet landscape our back yard. I had an idea on what I wanted to do but needed a professional to work out the lay out. Alan was very creative and easy to work out in the planning. We picked a date and his Forman Angel and his crew knocked it out in 3 days. They were very professional, neat and courteous. We've had a few plants that didn't do well and so far they've stood behind them. We love how our back yard has turned out and enjoy spending time out there. read more

Alan truly has an eye for design and helped us to make the yard more functional than our original plan. He was always available for any questions we had and kept us informed every step of the way. He also was the only landscaping company that was willing work at the same time as our pool builder and kept in contact with them along the way. They made a stressful project truly painless and I could relax knowing we were in such good hands! Do not hesitate to give Alan and Green Planet a call - you will be glad you did! read more

I have been wanting to get our yard done for years, but had a hard time deciding on what company to hire, mostly because I am so picky. When I saw Alan and his teams work on here I was really impressed. The designs were unique and clean. I called Alan to schedule a consultation and he showed up on time and was very pleasant and professional. He drew up the design right then, and talked with my husband and I about the options, cost, maintenance. The team started on the design a month later (they are very busy). They are very punctual and showed up at the same time each morning, and would clean up after themselves. I have to say the whole process was seamless and I can't recommend Green Planet Landacape highly enough. I am so happy with my backyard now. It is so beautiful and calming to look at. It is easy to maintain and will look beautiful forever. Alan was so flexible with me when I wanted to add some things. And they got it done right away! So, if you're looking for a beautiful and functional yard, I highly recommend Green Planet Landscape. read more

Alan, from Green Planet, from start to finish wanted to make sure we were totally happy with his teams work. After collecting 4 bids, Green Planets proposal was one of the lowest and shortest finish time bids. And Alan exceeded our expectations from working with me to create the yard of my dreams, going to my HOA meeting, to knowing about every variety of plant, to checking in on my yards progress consistently. We love the new patio paver hardscape, the spot lights and path lights are gorgeous the way they shine on the plants and cast shadows on the house, and the plant plan is exactly as I requested. It's not over planted, so it's low maintenance and it will grow in organically perfect. The pictures really don't show its perfection. read more

Unlike the other bids we received for a front yard lawn replacement, the Green Planet folks stuck to exactly what we requested and didn't recommend additional unrelated work, as the other two companies did. Their pricing was very reasonable, and the work took place just a few weeks after we got the bid. The crew arrived on time. They performed the work exactly as we requested and made sure to check in with us frequently to see if any changes were needed. The kept the area tidy throughout the job and were in and out in one day. They cleaned the area thoroughly upon completion, and the lawn looks beautiful. We will not hesitate to use them again in the future! read more

I contacted Green Planet Landscape because I was interested in having a landscape designed for both my front and back yards in Pittsburg. I called and left a message explaining what I was needing. I didn't get a call back. Instead I was sent a text message stating that they only serve the cities of Brentwood, Antioch, Oakley and Discovery Bay. So if you live in any city in outside of those 4, don't bother calling them for an estimate. I suggested they correct their website as it incorrectly states they serve "East Contra Costa" and that includes a far greater area than the limited list of cities that were sent to me. read more

I constantly stare at my neighbor's perfect yard across the street. Hedges on point, healthy roses, and green grass with perfect lines.

Well...you know that old saying, "you get what you paid for!" I was getting nothing but cut grass with dandelions and a yard that looked like it was in desperate need of some TLC! I bit the bullet and hired them and I couldn't be happier! Alan (the owner) made several suggestions to make my yard look younger. I have an older home so he wanted to give it some Botox! Lol! I agreed! He explained the process and what to expect with each plant. He didn't want me to be alarmed with the drastic change that was about to occur!

We would highly recommend this company! We moved to Antioch a couple of months ago. When we bought our house it only had bark in the front which was an eye sore. My husband researched landscape companies and Green Planet had the best reviews. Alan showed up 15 min. early to every appt. and answered every question I had since we had no idea what we wanted. He sent over photos for me to choose from. It only took a week for his team to lay concrete, and transfer our tan bark to a beautiful professional house, full of grass and beautiful rocks and plants. Now we are not the eyesore on the block!. read more

So far, they have completed the two concrete patio areas we want. Once that dries they will complete the rest of the yard. I will update my yelp once the project is complete. The concrete looks amazing and exceeds my expectation! read more
