    Grass with metal border

    I found Joe Tovias and J & S Landscaping at the Ventura County Fair in August 2025. I selected him from 3 similar contractors and was very happy with my choice. Joe was completely hands on and did everything from demo and removal of DG, to pavers to grass and sprinklers, and flagstones with 3/4 Del Rio rock. His guys were fantastic and very respectful about my property and possessions. He also saved me money by trenching for the electrical setup.

    We were very happy with the work Joe and his crew did with our front yard. The house came with a red bark landscape that would blow across the neighborhood every time the wind blew. Joe removed the old bark and replaced it with river rock. Totally satisfied!!! Thank you!!

    Just had a paver patio and front walkway put in and I couldn't be happier with the result, service, and price. Joe and his team did such a great job on my yard I plan on using him on more future projects. If you want quality work from a local family, go with J&S landscape!

    Joe built a perfect pergola and showed up on time every day until it was completed. He paid great attention to details and kept me informed every step of the project. His crew cleaned up well at the end and fixed all sprinkler problems made from construction. I recommend Joe Tavares for your landscaping and sprinkler work

    Joe and his guys deliver top notch service. I have been in the process of renovating my house and the last step was backyard landscape. He answered my first call and had a reasonable quote within a day. I needed new sod and sprinkler system, and plant a dozen or so flowers on the perimeter separating the grass and flowers using bender board. It looks great and Joe and his crew knocked it out in about a day and a half despite rain delays. Would highly recommend to family and friends.

    Received an estimate, was very nice, timely and professional. Pricing was just more than I was willing to pay.

    Scarlett Landscape & Design isn't a company--we've decided they're family…read more We met Jeremy Scarlett in 2021 when he turned our blank Santa Barbara backyard into a living postcard: a beautiful string light lined fire-pit, next to a picturesque outdoor dining experience and completed with 4 raised garden beds, and plant selection to great that the neighbors asked for the blueprint. Two years later, a quick front of the house refresh became a master class in precision--same crew, same pride, zero corners cut. Fast-forward to 2025: a different contractor just punched a pool-shaped hole through our paradise. One call to Jeremy and the Scarlett crew showed up like superheroes in sun hats. They surveyed the pool demo and made sure that our paradise will return to its former glory, if not, even better. What sets Scarlett apart? One crew owns your job from demo to final bloom. They know our Frenchie, Madeline by name name, and which succulents sulk in afternoon sun. They treat our soil like it's their own inheritance. Jeremy himself still walks every jobsite, pencil behind ear, asking, "Will this make you smile in five years?" The answer is always yes. If you're tired of landscapers who vanish after the invoice, hire Scarlett. They don't just install beauty--they protect it, perfect it, and hand you the hose with a grin. Five stars aren't enough. We're already saving for the next excuse to call them back. -- David, Alexandra & Madeline The Frenchie, Santa Barbara, CA

    Scarlett's Landscaping did a great job on my back patio. Living in a condo, I have a small patio…read morearea that lacked privacy, functionality and character. It had an ugly view of a retaining wall, drainage gutter, and parking lot. It also had a beautiful tree that was leaning and had a fence awkwardly placed around its trunk. When heavy rains, felled this tree and ripped out the fence, it was time to finally address this disastrous area. I met with owner Jeremy and landscape designer Jason to help reimagine my patio. They addressed my concerns and wishlist and came up with a great design. The work crew, led by Ray, was outstanding. Every one of the guys on the crew, Javier,Chris, Dewey, Juan, Andy, Frank and Rolando were professional, courteous and respectful to us, my neighbors, and mindful of the HOA rules. Their work ethic and work product were outstanding. The old cracked concrete was replaced with beautiful pavers and upgraded drainage. A Hoff Solitions privacy screen with class a fire rated Timber-Tech planks was placed in front of the concrete block retaining wall and is fully removable if needed. I have more functional seating with a garden wall that allows for some plantings and doubles as extra seating. My Zen boulder fountain was set in ground with accent lighting. A covered pergola was added to define a nice outdoor seating area. A beautiful and functional barbecue surround was built to create a built-in look for my barbecue cart and the surround also provides privacy from the parking area.Landscaping and irrigation were also added along my fence. Because of the increased functionality of the space, it feels larger. My back patio is so much more enjoyable and charming now and I couldn't be any happier with the final outcome. These pictures really do not do justice to this beautiful space. Scarlett's Landscaping may not be the least expensive, but they provided great communication, work ethic, workmanship, management of details such as all permits and inspections, follow-up post completion, and most of all, peace of mind that my project was in the right hands. I had a great experience working with them and I highly recommend them. Here are some before and after pictures.

    Jose is a gentleman. He's fair with his pricing, and knows his trade. I originally just hired him…read moreto do the artificial turf and extend the patio. After discussion and the fact that one of the large trees was cracking the cmu wall I got a quote to remove all of the trees and plants (except the roses). After accomplishing that I got more ideas with the clean slate and decided to paint the wall and add a vinyl fence topper for privacy. I am very pleased with the end result. After this project I hired Jose and his crew to do more work at another property. I would highly recommend him.

    When I met José, I could tell right away how dedicated and thorough he would be. He asked great…read morequestions and I was especially impressed when he suggested installing a thick weed barrier under our existing gravel to keep weeds down. Everyone else we had spoken with had tried to talk us out of weed barrier because it's a hassle to install. He also was able to understand my vision very well and is knowledgeable about all of the drought tolerant plants we wanted, including asking about different colors and varieties rather than making assumptions and getting the wrong thing for us. José even suggested that they mix a small amount of concrete with our decomposed granite around our raised beds so that we wouldn't have weeds coming up around the beds. It looks great and will save us so much time and work! José was extremely responsive and his estimate was comprehensive and well thought-out. He showed up when he said he would and did great work. I was so impressed with the attention to detail of José and his crew. When they were done, they cleaned up to the point that it was cleaner when they left than when they arrived. One example of how thorough José and his crew were is that they installed some artificial turf, and after installing it, they brought a special brush/roller tool to make the turf stand up properly. José's prices were not low, but they were fair, especially for the immaculate job he did! I will post pictures once the plants grow in a little bit more!

We had gotten 3 other contractors to come out to bid on it. One never called back, the other one took 10 days to send an estimate and the other showed up but was very rude. Jose sent a quote the morning after they took a look and the quote was right in line with the other contractors. Most important is the quality of the work. They took a rough drawing I had turned it into a small work of art. A nice short planter with a rock riverbed and some beautiful succulents. Could not be happier and the neighbors all love it. Would recommend Performance and would hire them again.

Then we told him to put them where ever he thought they would work best in the yards. He did the thinking and the work.

He also installed a putting green in back which my husband says is better than the one he had before the fire. They built very nice new gates between front and back. A very versatile service. Highly recommend Jose and his crew. He was full of good advise and they were all very capable and dependable. He came through with everything he promised. The work was done quickly and professionally.
