We worked with Beth to design both our front yard and backyard, and the experience was fantastic…read more She took the time to understand our style and preferences, and the design she came up with completely blew us away--it was exactly what we were hoping for and more. One of the most helpful parts of working with Beth was her use of 3D video renderings. Being able to see the project in detail before starting gave us such a clear picture of how everything would come together. It also made it much easier to plan and budget for the entire project. Honestly, we wouldn't have been able to get such a solid sense of costs and options without her help. Beth's pricing for the design was very reasonable, and she's already helped us save money by creating a thoughtful plan. Her work has given us so much confidence as we prepare to move forward with the project. If you're looking for a landscape designer who can take the stress and uncertainty out of planning while giving you an incredible design, Beth is absolutely the one to call. We couldn't recommend her more!

This review is long overdue. Just want to say how happy we were/are with Beth' services. She helped…read moreus give a life and coziness to our backyard. Beth was super professional, patient and helpful. Also perhaps most importantly she listened to us. We are super happy with the results, especially now when the plants have grown a bit. We highly recommend Eden Design Services.

Oscar Maciel was an outstanding project manager for my System Pavers installation this past week…read more From start to finish, he was incredibly attentive, patient, and knowledgeable. Oscar took the time to thoroughly educate me on every aspect of the project, making sure I understood the process and felt confident in each decision. Any time I called with questions or requested changes, Oscar was responsive, flexible, and genuinely supportive. His communication was clear and consistent, and his interpersonal skills made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Oscar's professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to customer satisfaction truly stood out. I highly recommend him and appreciate the excellent service he provided.

We recently finished a full front yard renovation with Jefferson Landscaping, and we couldn't be…read morehappier! They handled everything: lawn removal, bender board installation, and fresh gravel/wood chips. They even added a charming fence that perfectly defines the space. The standout feature is definitely the new flagstone pathway leading from the sidewalk and driveway--it is absolutely gorgeous. We've already had numerous neighbors stop by to compliment the work; I honestly think we have the best-looking yard on the block now! Jeff has an incredible eye for design and offered brilliant ideas for the layout, boulders, and decorative accents. He was super responsive to all our questions, and even when we made a few mid-project changes, he didn't charge us extra, which we truly appreciated. I highly recommend Jefferson Landscaping and will definitely be hiring them again for our backyard!

I had first talked to Jefferson 12 years ago for my backyard. He then had done a design for…read morebackyard. We got the backyard done with someone else due to lower price ( Not by much but we did not know any better. ) we love the design but the decision to not go with Jefferson was something I regretted so when it came time to redo Frontyard the only person I consoled was Jefferson. He came up with great design within budget. Him and and his crew were professional and stated work quickly and finished in very reasonable time. He communicated every day to where they were and what they have planned for the day and week. My family and I are very happy with results and would recommend him for your next landscape project.

I also had a pretty skimpy budget and needed to comply with the water company's rebate requirements. Tyler created a plan that filled every wish. His finished site plan reflects his extensive plant knowledge and a very fine eye for detail. He is well acquainted with the water rebate program and was able to answer questions thereof. I also used his service to purchase and deliver plants, and have him onsite to place the materials. This service alone is worth every penny; he moved plants and boulders around to the best aesthetic. After everything was complete, he came back for some fine-tuning and recommendations for my gardener. To save money I had my gardener do the installation but really wish I'd had the budget for a more extensive job done by one of Tyler's more experienced contractors. But I'm very happy with the result and recommend Tyler without hesitation. He's also a really nice guy and so easy to work with!

We worked with Vanessa Grimaldo on a renovation of our backyard in Berkeley. Vanessa and Black…read moreDiamond Paver Stones transformed our dilapidated, overgrown backyard by installing paver stones, synthetic grass, a proper drainage system, and a rebuilt staircase. The finished backyard looks excellent and the quality of the construction appears high. Vanessa specifically provided excellent, white-glove service throughout the entirety of the project and was super responsive to all of our communication. We did have a number of issues arise with the crew (mainly excessive dust seeping into our house and trash being left behind on the neighbor's property line), as well as the accounting department (an accidental attempt at overcharging us), but Vanessa always did an excellent job of troubleshooting these issues and helping to guide everybody towards a resolution. She also worked diligently on our backyard design and expertly guided us through several iterations and unexpected construction issues. I highly recommend working with Vanessa and Black Diamond Pavers.

We had an outstanding experience working with Nick Miller and the Black Diamond crew…read more They competitively bid a well designed curved driveway, with a stairway going down one side of the yard, and a pathway across the front of the house. Great design and installation of tasteful spotlights, mushroom lights, and some custom lights in the paver patterns. The Black Diamond team workers were fast, clean, organized, courteous, and their craftsmanship was excellent and the finished front of the house was a very custom and professional job. They were also flexible, which is probably most important. It now has a very modern, Tuscan look. What a transformation from cracked concrete! The neighbor dropped by, was amazed, and said: sign me up too! Definitely would recommend. It turned out better than we had imagined.

I would strongly advise anyone looking for a reliable contractor to look elsewhere. We hired…read moreMartinez Landscaping for a backyard project, and while they finished the initial hardscaping, their professionalism vanished immediately afterward. They were supposed to return to complete the plant and tree installation--a major part of the project--but they never showed up. Despite numerous promises that they would "be there next week" or "follow up tomorrow," they have completely ghosted us. I have spent weeks sending repetitive follow-up messages just to get a status update, only to be met with total silence. I've attached a screenshot of my last several messages showing zero response. It is incredibly unprofessional to leave a job half-done and ignore a paying client. Save yourself the headache and hire someone who actually respects their customers' time and finishes the work they were paid to do.
