We worked with Landscape Experts Inc (LEI) to revitalize our wild yard, cutting back swaths of overgrowth and transforming it with a variety of beautiful California native plants and nine fruit trees. They also carved out a lovely hillside with custom stairs, a spacious terrace, and game trails perfect for enjoying the view. LEI works with YesPlease.Garden (YPG) who managed the design process and Fresh Coat Restoration who completed the new fence. The partnerships were well integrated and it felt like working with a single team. See my Google Maps review for more on YPG. We are very happy with our project and would recommend LEI because they were professional, courteous, reliable, and provided clear and upfront pricing. Documenting decisions in writing proved helpful for keeping everyone on the same page. Any problems we had were resolved fairly, such as correcting the direction of our stairs. Aaron is a man of his word but prefers to conduct most of his business through texting. We first contacted LEI and they promptly scheduled a time to visit our property with YPG to see what was possible within the budget we set out. We completed the design with YPG and LEI scheduled a time for the project demolition. A later approximate time for planting was set, but that was dependent on the availability of the various plants we had selected. Everything scoped in the design was completed within the budget and any add-ons we later requested were priced separately and fairly. read more

My wife and I are in love with our yard again, and we are very happy with the work Aaron and his crew did. After deciding to remove our pool, we hired Aaron as the installer for our new landscape project, and we are so glad we did. For months, work was moving forward almost every day, from demolition prep and grading to hardscape, planting, irrigation, lighting, fencing, pergola installation, pebble work, and the finishing touches. The quality of the work was excellent throughout. The paver patio, carport, and front entry all turned out beautifully, and the plants, irrigation, and lighting were installed with great care. We were especially impressed by the rock and pebble work, particularly the dry creek and front mow strip. The mix of stone sizes gave everything a natural, detailed, and polished look that really elevated the final result. Aaron also has a strong eye for detail. He regularly caught things that needed adjustment, even when we had not noticed them ourselves, and he stayed focused on getting everything right. While there were some issues that delayed finishing the project, Aaron took responsibility and worked with us to make them right, which we truly appreciated. In the end, what matters most is that we are thrilled with the outcome. Our yard feels beautiful, welcoming, and complete, and we look forward to years of enjoying it. read more

We moved into a new home a few years ago. The backyard was in rough shape and not functional at all. So, we made it our first priority to get the backyard done so we could really enjoy it. We had everything completely demoed in order to start from scratch. We wanted a more rustic, traditional looking garden with brick pathways and lots of plants. Having never done a project like this before, we hired a landscape designer: Cyn Coulouthros. She put together a design for us and recommended Aaron's team at Landscape Experts due to their experience with softscaping and hardscaping, especially their brick work. And they would be able to deliver the traditional look we were going for. I cannot say enough good things about Aaron and his team. They go above and beyond to make sure you get what you want! Aaron is so easy to work with and always responsive. The lead on our project was Raul who is amazing at what he does! He takes pride in his work and is incredibly talented. If you need any landscaping, I highly recommend Landscape Experts. Some things Aaron's team did for us: Laid a brick pathway, laid a flagstone patio, installed pathway lights, installed much needed drainage, installed a drip system and Rachio controller (to program the sprinklers from your phone), resurfaced an existing raised seating area for us as it was completely deformed (likely from earthquakes), placed mulch, planted all of the trees and plants, etc. An additional note, Aaron doesn't forget about you once the job is done. We had a light go out and he sent someone over immediately to fix it, as an example. If you're having any issues, he wants to help, even if it's unrelated to anything they've worked on. We will 100% be using them when we're ready to do our front yard and for anything else landscape related! Thank you so much Aaron and Landscape Experts for giving us our dream backyard! You guys are amazing! read more

Aaron and his crew were hands down the best contractors I've ever worked with. We did a huge backyard remodel that included demolishing the whole backyard and previous hardscape, then installed a new patio, path, turf areas, pergola, kids playset, plants, trees, and lighting. The team was fast, respectful, and did top quality work. Aaron always responded to texts and messages and worked closely with me to ensure that our project was perfect. I'd highly recommend Landscape Experts to anyone and I'll definitely be working with them again in the future! read more

We recently decided to renovate our landscaping, and Landscape Experts Inc. (LEI) and YesPlease.GARDEN Landscape Design (YPG) agreed to take on our project (see my Google review of YPG). Aaron was thoughtful and responsive throughout the entire process. With years of expertise transforming properties throughout the greater Tri-Valley area, we knew that we could trust LEI to provide a high quality of workmanship. His team (Emilio, Raul, and others) replaced our front and side lawns, and bordering plant beds, with a rock garden designed by Cyn of YPG. They also refreshed our back lawn and bordering plant beds, and performed some repairs. For the front and side yards, this included: installing drip lines for the new drought-resistant plants; replacing existing low-voltage lighting and wiring; planting trees with root barriers; adding contouring to the previously flat yard; adding boulders and several tons of rocks and pebbles; upgrading smart irrigation controller; and installing lighting transformer with Wi-Fi programmable switch. For the backyard, this included: dethatching, reseeding, and fertilizing remaining lawn; repositioning rock border of perimeter plant beds for improved aesthetic balance; replacing some plants, and a windmill palm tree; replacing drip irrigation lines and lighting throughout plant bed; replacing mulch with rocks to match front and side yards; repairing wood rot on, then repainting, pergola; replacing wet-rated fan on pergola; and restoring fountain to working condition. As owner of several companies, including Gentile Construction and Discount Hauling and Demo, Aaron provides a seamlessly integrated suite of services. For homeowners who don't want the hassle of coordinating with separate contractors, and who want the peace of mind that things will get done efficiently, this is a big plus. For example, the outdoor fan and fountain installation required some electrical work; Ryan from Gentile Construction was able to quickly diagnose and fix the wiring issues. I recommend the partnership of Aaron at LEI and Cyn at YPG to meet your medium- to large-scale landscape project needs, from design concept to execution to maintenance. read more

I feel that Landscape Experts are quality, reliable landscapers headed by a very knowledgable, responsible, and friendly guy. I'd highly recommend them. This review is actually long overdue. My family used the services of California Yard Care, run by Aaron's father Tony, for many years. I did not personally do business with Tony but I was told that he was a guy who knew his stuff and who got things done - this is why my family continued to trust our landscaping to him and his crew. A few years ago, we were informed that Landscape Experts would begin taking responsibility for California Yard Care's clients. Aaron and Landscape Experts did not miss a beat after the transition. The quality of service remained as high as ever. We've come to take for granted our well-trimmed lawns, our healthy and shapely shrubbery (shrubberies??), our clipping-and-leaf-free yard, and our working irrigation system. When some concrete work was pushed up by some roots, Landscape Experts was able to take on the job of trimming things back and repairing the damaged concrete. Over the years, a few questions and concerns have popped up in my mind (as they sometimes do). Each time, I've felt that my question and/or concern has been responded to and addressed in a timely and courteous manner. I've met and spoke with Aaron a few times, and each time has been a positive experience. He is knowledgable on all the plants on our property (I'm thankful for this, because I can hardly tell an oak from a redwood without my little brown book) and has consistently solved problems quickly, ranging from faulty irrigation timers to messed-up underground water lines. Once again, I'd highly recommend Landscape Experts. read more

Had some work done on my backyard building a simple trellis and removing mulch and debris to prep it for lawn plugs. Aaron and his crew were great, able to take the job from phone call to completion in less than 24-hours with no issues. It might cost a little more than hiring some guy off the street, but when the work was done I was completely satisfied with the result and there was no question that the job was done thoroughly and no corners cut. Definitely worth every penny. read more

We identified a pipe leak underneath a tree in our front lawn. Aaron and his team at LE were referred to us and called in to originally just dig up and expose the leak. Aaron's crew performed the dig without issue making it through some tough roots. They exposed the leak and because the meter had to be shut off, they performed the leak repair on the spot. We avoided going without water in our home for at least a day and having to call in an actual plumber to complete the leak repair at who knows what cost. Aaron is extremely professional and over communicates on the status of the job, how his crew is doing and any costs incurred along the way. I highly recommend Landscape Experts for any general contracting job you may have. read more

We had a great experience with Landscape Experts. Very prompt arrival and strict adherence to Covid Protocol during all interactions. The excavation work needed to expose the plumbing lines were done very efficiently and with care for surrounding landscape features. After the plumbing line repair, Landscape expert came back straight away to backfill nicely and finish neatly with gravel. I can only recommend Landscape Expert for anyone in need for landscape work and great customer service. read more

We live in a 30+ year old home and it's no surprise that we have some yard irrigation issues that require attention. Our neighbors were very pleased with the work that Landscape Experts did for them in the redesign of their backyard so we reached out to Aaron to see if his team could do the repairs needed in our yard. We had a broken irrigation drain line under our patio as well as a broken irrigation main line connecting to our valve manifold. We also had a new sump pump that needed to be installed to replace a failed unit. Aaron responded with a very reasonable quote and his team got to work within the week. They pulled the pavers to access and replace the broken drain line. The workers were meticulous in the cleaning of the pavers and took great care in re-laying the pavers so that the patio looks as good as it did before the repair. The team also installed the new sump pump and made sure it was working as expected, i.e., expelling water through the newly installed drain line. The team also laid a new main line connecting to the valve manifold. Again, the workers checked and double-checked that everything was operating as expected. More recently we had Landscape Experts come back to our house to repair a broken lateral line in our front yard. Raoul took care of this within two hours (required a good amount of digging and repairs to several connectors and lines). Raoul was one of the workers on the first job and we were confident he would do a great job on these repairs, too ... and he did! Aaron is very good about following up to ask if everything is okay and working as expected. He clearly wants his customers to be satisfied with his team's work. I am pleased to say that all the repairs were done to our complete satisfaction. Based on our experience with Aaron and his team I highly recommend Landscape Experts. We will certainly reach out again to Landscape Experts for our next landscape project. read more

Landscape Experts Inc. completely relandscaped our front and back yards and did an outstanding job! They removed all of the old vegetation, removed the unruly redwood roots from the neighbors redwood trees that had completely damaged our old backyard patio, added new grass, decomposed granite pathway, mulch, handmade raised wooden garden boxes for our new vegetable garden, planted all of our new plants and trees, set up everything on a new sprinkler and drip system to save water, and replaced the old patio with a new flagstone patio. Aaron and his entire crew went above and beyond from start to finish on our projects and the communication throughout the entire process was top notch! They provided quality materials, quality workmanship, and the attention to detail on the handcrafted flagstone patio that was cut and laid out stone by stone is a breathtaking piece of art. We now have the zen yard of our dreams thanks to Landscape Experts Inc! We loved their attention to detail so much that we also hired them to do our landscape maintenance and have been extremely satisfied with their bi-monthly service. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have their yards landscaped or maintained! read more

Landscape Experts does our bi-weekly yard maintenance and have been amazing! Aaron and Jen has always been quick to respond to my questions and requests. Thank you for making it easy for a non plant person read more

This review is long over due. I've been using Landscape Experts for a number of my investment properties, my parents home and the homes my family and have live(d) in. Aaron is extremely passionate about the profession he's in and it shows in his customer service. This includes a time when one of my water pipes burst and Aaron sent over a crew member to my home ASAP to have it resolved. He not only mitigated the issue immediately so we can continue to have water flowing to the house, he came up with a game plan on how we can solve the issue to our landscapes. In addition to his customer service, we really appreciate is his attention to detail and ensuring that my project(s) are all on time and delivered on budget (or less!). It's hard to find people like this in an industry flooded with options. Having a trusted contact and partner goes a long way. Not to mention how attentive and responsive his crew is! Very professional company, led by an owner who really cares about his customers and the projects they pay them for, and an amazing team! read more

Working with Landscape Experts Inc. was an absolute dream. Their product, pricing and customer service was exceptional. From the beginning of our project, Aaron and his crew went above and beyond to make sure that our front and back yard were everything we asked for. The crew was professional, neat and considerate. We cannot recommend Landscape Experts enough to anyone who is interested in a landscaping project at your home! read more

If I can give more than 5 stars I would give Aaron and his crew the ratings! High quality work, friendly, acts as a partner and advisor, and would work with them again. They turned my dessert-like hillside into a beautiful hillside with drip system and new plants. They even came back later to fix up additional work at no charge. They take ownership of their work and pride. Especially Raul and Emilio the crew leaders! Thanks guys. read more

Aaron and his team did a complete backyard renovation for us last year and we are still impressed with the quality of work and attention to detail they put into the project. From start to finish, working with them was a dream. The communication was excellent, Aaron was present on-site first thing each morning to make sure everyone was on the same page and every detail was being handled carefully, and every member of his team was super nice and professional. In addition to doing an amazing job of the complete remodel they were hired for including turf, concrete, plants, lighting, irrigation, and fence installation, they went above and beyond for us fixing some things that had been done incorrectly by others in the past. They squared-up our pergola, finally resolved a slow drip from a strange pipe on the exterior of our garage wall near our water heater, suggested and installed an extra water fixture near our driveway for easy car washing, straightened the masonry on our fire pit, and re-installed the previously poorly-done gas line to the fire pit fire to the proper specifications. While completing the backyard project, Aaron structured the electrical and irrigation with our pending front yard project in mind so that we're set up and ready to go when we're ready to move forward. The thoughtfulness, planning, and forward-thinking was impressive and very much appreciated. We also hired them to handle the power upgrade to supply our hot tub and they did an excellent job. We know that when we're ready to start the front yard project, it will be an enjoyable process with a result we'll love. We absolutely recommend Aaron and his team! read more

Amazing service, really listen to the client. I mentioned a problem with the ground squirrels coming under my 100+ foot back fence so they added a barrier 2 feet down to prevent them from coming in! Asked if they could add some support to one section of side fence that is over 30 years old and had begun rotting at the bottom, they did the whole length of fence! I have a fairly large yard yet they completely covered the whole yard with weed cloth. They moved large boulders from my front to back yard, replaced a planting bed with exposed aggregate and spread mulch & river rock throughout the planting areas. All in addition to adding a drip system for the entire yard, planting all new plants selected at Armstrong Nursery and laying sprinklers and sod for a small lawn. Incredibly professional, clean cut super nice guys! They are now my regular maintenance service as well. I couldn't be happier with Aaron and his team! read more

A great company, so efficient and reliable! Aaron is very nice and managed the work perfectly. Thanks!

This is the most professional business I have ever worked with. Aaron goes above and beyond and then some. I know he probably has dozens of customers but I always felt like I was the only one. Honestly I'm amazed at how on top of things he was every step of the way from the estimate until the job was finished. I wasn't sure what I wanted; he made suggestions, dropped off samples of materials, advised on the type of plants that would do well in my yard (sun almost the entire day) followed up with everything he said he was going to do and it always took me by surprise how quickly he responded. The day of the installation he went the extra mile and text me several times to let me know exactly what was happening . He went above and beyond my expectations looking at other things he could do (we never even talked about) to add to the look to the look of the yard. What amazing experience from start to finish. It puts your faith back the way things used to be when a business cared more about the customer's satisfaction/happiness than the money. I felt like I truly mattered and I'm grateful for the experience. read more

We had a new fence installed and unfortunately a few sprinkler lines and related wiring were damaged. The fence contractor took full responsibility and asked Aaron and his team to repair those items.

Within a planned development community, it's clear to see the difference between landscapers who haphazardly weed whack versus well-tended yards. I highly recommend Aaron and Landscape Experts.

They also made sure to clean up after their work and did a fabulous job installing the plants and checking all the irrigration for the new plants.
