Make sure my sprinklers were working installed another single use sprinkler timer they sent out a special truck with two people in it to do that job read more

Waste of money. Your neighbors will hate you because this company spends almost the entire time using their blowers, rather than making sure your expensive plants don't die. Never once did they listen to any feedback. Very disappointed. read more

They have horrible customer service. The owner came out to bid a job for turf for my yard (also an hour late with no phone call to let me know, so I was kept waiting), I told him EXACTLY what I wanted as to product/install, he took all kinds of measurements, said he would send me an estimate. He NEVER sent me an estimate, I called 3 times, emailed twice...nothing. Just called again and the sales associate told me "nothing I can do" and hung up on me because I said I would be forced to write a review (once again terrible customer service) The owner should have explained AT THE TIME if it was a job he didn't want to do and not kept me waiting for estimates he never produced, never followed up on my correspondence and apparently never had any intention of doing. This is NOT a reliable company! read more

The team at Rainscape maintains landscaping needs of the property where I live. They are a responsive and hardworking group of individuals and I appreciate their hard work every day. read more

Rainscape really exceeded my expectations for repair work on my irrigation system. Martin, Joe and the owner, Al, responded quickly and efficiently to detect and repair leaks in my irrigation system. They are the best! read more

Some was not getting water and some too much. So has of today i had to call in another company. To bad read more

This is the second time we have used Rainscape. They did our small yard in our condo. We recently moved and wanted to improve the yard in our new home. This time we had a much larger space and wanted both pavers and artificial turf installed as well as plantings. Jill came up with a lovely plan and we couldn't be happier with the result. The men who installed the pavers were true artists and their attention to detail was wonderful. We are really enjoying our outdoor space and can't thank Rainscape enough. The owner, Al Hummel, also understands technology and had a Rachio unit installed so we can even control our drip irrigation through our smart phones. Thanks to Rainscape we have a lovely outdoor space we can enjoy for years to come. read more

Our HOA Board hired Rainscape Landscape recently for a large-scale landscape project and as our regular gardening service. We are so happy with the services provided thus far. The amounts quoted in both bids have been honored and the time tables given have likewise been met. The quality of services provided as met and/or exceeded our expectations. You should be able to contract with this company without reservation, knowing that what is requested will be delivered. Thank you, Victor, for your professionalism and for helping to restore the charm to our townhouse complex! read more

Amazing family, amazing work!! Drive by places/ walk by places that are done by Rainscape. AMAZING!! Hope to get to something done by them!!!! read more

When a job goes well, there is no reason to question a company's reputation but when it goes bad you find out real fast how ethical a company is and the level of integrity displayed by its owner. Rainscape botched my small landscaping job from the start, beginning with charging me unnecessary and costly parts and labor. Followed by, a supposed "foreman" losing his temper on the job and behaving inappropriately, then walking off the job. At least the foreman later apologized for losing his temper. When Rainscape employees performed the work at my house they botched the job twice, leaving me with unfinished landscaping, irrigation and pathways. Where was the owner, Al Hummell, in all of this? Nowhere to be found. For weeks, we tried to contact him to resolve the situation amicably but to our surprise, Al actually refused to speak with us. We have yet to receive a phone call from him or any options to resolve the problem. WARNING- Do not do business with Al Hummell. He is an unprofessional business owner. BUYER BEWARE!! Update: a second backflow that was unnecessarily installed at my house by Rainscape is now pouring water and has been all night, leaving a pool of water around the front and back of the house. I left an emergency message and still have not heard back from Al to resolve our problems. read more

See all

Al Hummell and his crew did a wonderful job putting in a new flagstone patio in our backyard. They took out our existing prairie grass and designed and installed the patio. Rainscape's prices were very reasonable, and the crew was professional. We were really impressed with how responsive Rainscape was. When some of the irrigation came loose, the crew came out the next day and fixed it. I would highly recommend Rainscape. Sandy Rumbler San Luis Obispo read more

Thanks Al and crew, These guys got a last minute call to clean up our 1 acre back yard for an upcoming party, they were on time, worked their tails off, cleaned up after the fact and it looks awesome! read more

We have a condo unit next to our business that uses this place for their landscaping and they constantly use their blowers when it's windy and blow junk all over all our cars, business etc. Totally disrespectful and it looks like they are looking for the lazy way to clean up debris. Next time I see them do this we are going to have an issue as i"m sick of it. Get a clue and get a landscape maintenance company that respects people around where they are working. read more

Great service done by local professionals- on time, on budget, and friendly team. We decided to update and refresh our front yard after losing some plants to frost a few years ago. We also wanted to replace those plants with some native plants, drought tolerant plants, and succulents. We were impressed with the fact that Rainscape uses local suppliers for their work including Central Coast Landscape Products and Growing Grounds Farm Wholesale Nursery. We're happy we are supporting local businesses. Victor, the supervisor, was friendly and gave us an estimate and took the time to talk with us about what our plans are for the yard. He stopped by both during and after the installation to make sure we were happy with the results. Miguel and Joshua did the main installation in two phases with the first being taking out the old plants and phase two installing the new plants and new drip system for the new plants. They followed the design plans and even waiting for our input on the placement of some plants and Adelaide boulders. Clemente also helped give the yard a finished look by placing bark around all our plants (not just the new ones). We are very impressed with the quality of their work. All of the workers have been friendly, professional, on time, and cleaned up when finished. We now use Rainscape for our yard maintenance as well. The irrigation team also came out to check our sprinkler and drip systems and to make some recommended upgrades. read more

The Rainscape crew fixed a couple of broken sprinklers for us when we lived in San Luis Obispo. They arrived on time and quickly went above and beyond in fixing our sprinklers. I highly recommend them. read more

Such a great team! Currently I am utilizing Rainscape's services to maintain my yard. They even trim up my lavender bushes and leaf blow my carport which is extra nice. Very professional and always there to answer questions. I also enjoy how my main contact, Victor, checks in with me periodically to ensure I am happy with the job, which I always am. Should I have any large improvement projects for my yard I'm the future I plan to call Rainscape. read more

Rainscape did a phenomenal job in repairing a small patch of my synthetic lawn which had sustained damage(melted). Victor is outstanding in his approach to customer service and follow up on customer satisfaction. Patch repair is virtually unnoticeable. Good company, good people. read more

Rainscape knows about water...how to use it efficiently in landscaping and how to plan for effective drainage. Both are important here in drought country. The owner Al has been doing this a long time and his crew is top notch. Wanting to create a smart, conscious and beautiful yard? Rains cape is an invaluable resource. read more

Just had these people re-landscape our front yard, love-it-love-it-love-it! Al has lots of knowledge, ideas, & vision & his crew is great, professional, hard working & hard working (gotta say it twice, they're good). read more

Rainscape overcharged me from the start so they "agreed" to send me a refund check. Unfortunately, the work was done 2 months ago and I'm still waiting for my check. Their work was sloppy, their worker's unprofessional and the owner has no integrity. Trust me, if you try contacting Rainscape, once you sign a contract, you will never be able to speak with Mr Albert Hummell. Please contact me if you have further questions regarding my experience at stefadika1@mac.com. Any reputable company is booked out for three months. Rainscape will get to your job quickly because they are obviously not full with contracted work. Beware. Pay more for peace of mind. It's worth it in the end. read more
