    New playset, turf, hardscape, plants, and electrical installed by Landscape Experts.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    I highly recommend Landscape Experts! Aaron and his team landscaped my entire front yard, including new irrigation, hardscape and lighting. They did a fantastic job, were very reliable and responsive, and I continue to use them for regular maintenance. Couldn't ask for a better experience.

    Back yard

    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!

I reached out to Geoff and as always, he was very responsive and offered to repair these items. Geoff and his team stand by their workmanship and products. They put a lot of emphasis on both, the quality of their work and customer satisfaction. It's becoming hard to find companies/business owners that care and take pride in their work. I will continue to recommend Swanson!

    After waiting a year and a half I have decided it was time to review Swanson's Landscaping. I had…read moreSwanson's Landscaping build a pad for my swim spa and hot tub. They were recommended by my swim spa dealer, Turbo Spas in Dublin. The crew was easy to work with, professional and followed my instructions to the letter. I just want to give some feedback from what I have learned since because this will help others avoid the same mistake I made. After waiting 28 days for the concrete to cure I set my 12' swim spa and 8' hot tub on the pad. 6 months later my swim spa cracked on the bottom. I am not sure about this but I believe the spa cracked because of the control lines running underneath the spa because that is where the spa shell cracked. Lessons learned is never add control lines where a swim spa will be set. This was no fault of Swanson's, It was my fault for recommending control line locations. All is well now because my swim spa was repaired and I have the spa floating on 3" of crushed rock and a spa pad. The spa pad and rock sit on top of 6" steel reinforced concrete.

For the past two years I was watering my lawn all the time, sometimes twice a day during Summer and whenever we vacationed or left home for a week I was always worried about the lawn dying and all the effort it would take to regrow. It started to become a chore rather than something enjoyable. We finally decided to get a Sprinkler System installed and so glad we found Jon. Communication was great right away with super fast replies on Yelp and I believe Jon even came the next day for an estimate. He finished the sprinkler system in less than a week which is what he quoted with excellent attention to detail and a very honest price. The complexity was we were doing concrete work at the time so there were two contractors at our house at the same time. He set me up with a 3 zone system, the front area is exposed to a lot of sun and I always struggled with keeping things growing there. The cool thing is the Rachio system he installed automatically chooses ideal times to water based on daily weather reports. You can see the "after" pictures which show my lawn is still nice and green despite the heat and now I get to water for pleasure instead of doing it as a task! I enjoyed bantering with Jon as well, he is a very knowledgeable guy and also very easygoing and chill to talk to.

I will tell you after multiple experiences re-sodding this back grass and watching our money just wasted on failed attempts toward a green and healthy lawn, we decided to spend a little more money to get it done right. We definitely got what we paid for with Crest. They dug down deep enough to break up a mass web of roots that were suffocating the grass, they reinstalled new sprinklers, they laid several layers of top grade gopher screen and finished the job with laying top grade healthy green sod. The results of their work have been exceptional. Josue gave us great suggestions on how to keep our grass looking beautiful for the long haul. Crest and Josue give customer service a whole new meaning. We have several projects we need to do on our landscape and we have no hesitation about who we are going to hire for this work. Crest Landscaping brings skill, efficiency, attention to detail, and amazing customer service. If it seems like they are more expensive than their competitors, their work done at the onset will absolutely save you the money spent in the long run. It is so refreshing to have worked with such excellent professionals.

This was a technically challenging project involving a steep hill and very mature redwood roots. Standout qualities of this company are: 1. Ease of quoting process Before coming out in person, they were able to give us a ballpark price based on dimensions, fence type, and site images. This allowed me to decide whether to move forward and I thought this was really respectful of my time. Then, Dago, the owner, came for the site visit and to discuss details. 2. No bait and switch In ironing out the details, there was some miscommunication about whether staining was included. Dago was able to meet us halfway with the price increase. This honest business style continued throughout the project and no change orders or unexpected price increases happened. 3. Detail oriented Throughout the project, we discussed details such as fence posts placement relative to tree roots, post height, etc. Dago was both available in person and by email via his assistant Maria. It was also nice to have responses confirmed in writing so that things were clear and there would be no bait and switch. 4. Personality Dago is a really nice person and I enjoy speaking with his about his geriatric dogs, etc. This also helped me not feel anxious about the project, because I felt that I could trust him. For this fence, we received multiple quotes. Two companies were in the $9-10K range, another was around $12K, and an outlier was above $20K. Dago's price was the lowest quote (with minute differences in material) and we are very glad we went with him!

I am thrilled to give this well-deserved review because if you're reading this, you will certainly be in the great hands of talented and seasoned professionals. Dago, María, and the whole team, thank you so much!

Ken is by far the best. He is hands on and involved in the process from day one. He shows up, doesn't make excuses, doesn't get discouraged and truly has his clients' best interest at heart. So much so that we felt entirely comfortable having him handle all interactions with the city regarding permits as well as all the vendors we sourced from. Ken worked 100 percent for our interests and found the best pricing available (even if it meant not using his primary vendors), ensuring we didn't have to pay one cent more for improvements than we had to. I've never felt so relieved and confident turning over total responsibility to a contractor...ever. He's not necessarily the fastest worker, but he is honest, meticulous, thoughtful and creative. No short cuts, no compromise. He is diligent and truly wants nothing short of complete satisfaction from his clients. He redid our entire front yard and driveway and we couldn't be happier! Pavers, decking, planting, design, irrigation, drainage, flagstone, fencing, curb and gutter and lighting...everything. A+ Class act.

    We couldn't be more grateful for Octavio and his team. Our backyard has a notoriously difficult…read moreslope that many other contractors refused to touch. Octavio was the only one who figured out the logistics of getting a Bobcat on-site and offered a clear path forward. While we worked with a separate landscape designer, Octavio's on-the-ground expertise actually improved the final result. He suggested practical modifications to the original terrace and retaining wall plans that better suited our terrain, which saved us significant costs. Beyond the major earth-moving, he handled: - Full Front Yard Renovation: High-quality work at a very fair price. - ADU Infrastructure: Trenching and installation for electric, water, and sewer lines. - Finishing Touches: Expert irrigation, lighting, and planting. What truly sets him apart is his character. When raccoons tore up our new sod, Octavio offered to repair it under warranty, even though it wasn't his fault. If you have a 'impossible' yard or just want someone honest and highly skilled, Octavio is your guy.

    This is an update review now that we have used Octavio and Pacific Premier Landscaping once again…read moreto complete our homes landscaping all around! Octavio and Pacific Premiere Landscaping is STILL incredible! Extremely professional, responsive and just an all around really nice guy! We had a very large project that included our Front, Side, and sloping back yard. My wife and I, like a lot of couples I'm certain, have design paralysis with that "I don't know, what do you want?" going back and forth with each other endlessly. Octavio has a great eye, and countless times he broke our deadlock saying, "How about this? I think this would look really nice" and when we followed his suggestions we ended up being incredibly happy with the result! That's a huge benefit that you can't put value on, because it keeps a project moving forward with minimal stress. Whenever we had questions, he always replied to our texts instantly, and one of the things I really appreciated about his company is that we never had to line up any of our own specialty contractors (electrical, plumbing etc) to do work. He has every discipline covered and coordinates the scheduling of all of that. I've worked with contractors before where they would inform you they didn't do a type of work and we would have to contract that effort separately. Octavio is not like that and he'll coordinate it all according to how you'd like it to look, or be done. Big thumbs up on that! Payment schedules are very clearly explained and documented. Our project included payments in "phases of work" down payment, forms completed, rebar completed, Completed concrete, electrical and irrigation/plants completed, final approval completed etc. and there was flexibility in the schedule if we wished, which made it much easier at one point while we were travelling. He's very open to discussing whatever makes things go smoothly. We loved how he gave us a lot of help particularly with trees/plants (types, locations) Octavio is very knowledgeable in that area and we were very pleased when he met us at the nursery multiple times to show and help us select plants and trees. His work crews were always very friendly, hard working and meticulous, and he checked in on them constantly to make sure everything was going according to plan. It's very obvious that he wants to make sure there are no surprises, and that work is progressing according to schedule and plans. It was a great pleasure having Octavio and Pacific Premiere Landscaping transform our home! We would use him again without question and in fact have several other projects in the immediate future that we're in the process of discussing. A lot of people will search hard for the lowest price (I would estimate that Octavio's prices are not the "cheapest", but they are much more than fair, and I would argue that there is a HUGE difference between "lowest price" and "value"; that being the quality and experience of the work done for the money spent, and with that in mind, Pacific Premiere is a tremendous value! You get a ton for your Money!
