We had few ideas on what we wanted, but several ideas about what we did not want. Raquel (Solea Landscapes) listened carefully and designed a beautiful yard, complete with 3D renderings so we could really envision her ideas in our space. They worked with us, even inviting us to shop with them for pots and plants. Steve and Awaken Landscapes did an amazing job in executing her design. Jose and his crew were quick, efficient, and cheerful. They responded positively to our every request, and they kept the job site clean and neat, even with all the mud from February's downpours. Our new front yard is everything I hoped for: beautiful, unique, low on water usage, and easy to maintain. The end result is the talk of the neighborhood. The first night that the accent lights lit up our new yard brought tears to my eyes. Thank you, Steve, Raquel, and all the great folks at Awaken Landscapes.

Extremely disappointed -- 2 1/2-year-old walkway already failing…read more I am extremely disappointed with my experience with Living Elements Landscape. They installed a flagstone walkway at my home, and it is only 2 1/2 years old, yet it has already developed significant problems. The Gator Dust used between the flagstones has repeatedly washed out, leaving the walkway deteriorating year after year. There are now loose flagstones, uneven areas, and sections that have become a serious tripping hazard. I contacted Living Elements Landscape and gave them the opportunity to correct the problem. Instead of standing behind their workmanship, I was told they would not fix it because the project was outside their one-year warranty. They offered only $300 toward finding someone else to repair it, despite the condition of the walkway. What I found particularly concerning was the response when I indicated that I may have to pursue the matter further. I was told that if I took them to court and lost, they would sue me for their legal fees. I found this response extremely troubling when I was simply trying to get a 2 1/2-year-old walkway with loose and shifting flagstones addressed. This is not just a cosmetic issue. The walkway is unsafe, and I should not have to worry about someone tripping because of loose flagstone on a relatively new installation. I hired a professional landscaping company expecting quality workmanship and a company willing to address problems with its work. Instead, I feel I have been left with a deteriorating walkway and the expense of finding someone else to correct it. If you are considering hiring Living Elements Landscape, I strongly recommend asking very specific questions about their installation methods, materials, warranty, and what happens if the work begins failing shortly after the warranty expires. Based on my experience, I would not recommend Living Elements Landscape and would not hire them again. UPDATE: Living Elements has responded to my review, but several statements in their response are inaccurate. The walkway was completed in March 2024, not over three years ago. They also state that they returned multiple times; in fact, they returned once during the one-year warranty period to address low spots in the joints. The current issue is loose and moving flagstones, cracked and washed-out joints, and a resulting tripping hazard. I also disagree with the characterization that the current condition is simply the result of drainage. If drainage was a concern, that should have been properly addressed when the walkway was installed or a reasonable corrective solution should have been provided.

Black Diamond Paver Stones & Landscape was an excellent choice for our backyard landscaping needs…read more Patrick Danyo, the project design specialist, was friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. He helped us select the perfect combination of stone, pavers, colors, and plants to create a beautiful and inviting backyard. The entire crew was courteous, efficient, and respectful of our property.

We are extremely happy with the results and would highly recommend Black Diamond Paver Stones & Landscape to anyone looking for quality landscaping work!

We contracted…read morewith Black Diamond Landscpape mostly based on their Instagram presence highlighting backyard transformations. When we reached out, they were responsive and had someone come out within a few days to take measurement, speak with us, and created a 2D design. The design looked good, but the pricing was more than what we expected for the job. We nonetheless went with them, again, based on their social media advertisements. The job did not turn out as we expected. The crew tore up the yard, left trash behind, and left the job incomplete. We had to ask the crew to come back to finish what they started, fix things, and clean up the mess they made, which they did. As the job has now been "completed" for a few weeks, we are noticing things that need to be corrected/fixed. When we requested that these things be corrected, Black Diamond Landscape stopped responding. My wife and I are now left to fix what was supposed to be our backyard transformation.

Alex and his crew transformed our front, back and side yards this past spring. After reading other…read morereviews and meeting with him (and four other contractors) we chose HF Gardening to help us renovate our green spaces. Alex spent the most time reviewing our vision, giving us helpful ideas and consulting with my husband during the initial meeting versus the other competing vendors. He was knowledgeable about what native plants we could utilize to liven up our space, and what would survive and thrive in which sun spots. He understood our inspiration and worked with the style of our home to create a Mediterranean-inspired haven for our family. After agreeing to his bid, which was the best price (bonus!) we scheduled the work days and the crew was friendly, super hard working and left everything incredibly clean at the end of each day. Alex guided us through the process, explaining what would be done and in what order; when we added work items, he was gracious and patient with our additions. The pictures below show before and after, but they don't capture just how much our family is now enjoying our gorgeous new outdoor space. We love to spend time together in the backyard, and constantly marvel at HF Gardening's lasting craftsmanship and hard work that transformed our back and front yards. We have gotten tons of compliments and recommend them whenever we get the chance. Loved working with Alex and his crew and will 100% hire them in the future!

I spoke to Mike first and he was very helpful and informative and patiently answered all my questions. He and his team kept this responsiveness and quality experience throughout the whole project. This company is also very honest. They accidentally underquoted me for the project, but they honored their original price without hesitation. They also demonstrated flexibility by working with me on scheduling and adapting to our needs. I had a question about our sprinkler system after they finished and they got back to me with an answer right away. Not only do I think the new retaining wall looks fantastic, but even my gardener, who sees a lot of this type of work, was impressed. He commented that he could tell Stuteville Landscaping took their time, didn't skip any steps, and performed high-quality work. If you're looking for a reliable, honest, and skilled landscaping company, look no further than Stuteville Landscaping. They exceeded our expectations in every way, and we highly recommend them!

After several consultations and estimates from many different landscape companies my wife and I…read morechose to go with Brandon and his crew at Reliable and couldn't be happier with the results. We had been sitting on a landscape design and needed someone to bring the vision to reality. Brandon immediately translated our plan into his software so we could discuss options and take on suggestions for improvement. He was quick and precise in making adjustments to appease our HOA and fit within our budget. The crew was meticulous in their work on the yard. If it was on the plan it was replicated in the yard. If we saw something that needed a slight adjustment they were happy to accommodate. I recall a situation where we needed a concrete walkway to go wider around an AC unit. The crew quickly responded by forming a wider path. Nate was great at scheduling project dates and also helped to make sure our AC units were reinstalled in a timely manner after our concrete was poured. We were relieved to have them up and running again before a forecasted heat wave arrived. Brandon was there at every stage of the project and was always quick to respond. He was at the nursery with us when it came time to choose the plants, making suggestions for plants that best fit our specific environment. During the middle of construction a rain storm hit our area and we had some concerns about how the yard would handle it in an unfinished state. He came out late at night to make sure the drainage would be okay until the storm passed. Upon completion of the project he was there to make sure everything was tidied up after the final walkthrough. If someone were to ask me for a recommendation on a yard install or remodel I would surely tell them to call Reliable Landscape and Design.
