I recently used Tranquil Oasis to complete several landscaping projects at my home. It all started…read morewith the backyard where they add pavers to extend the patio, realigned a paver pathway, added plants and trees, added both turf and a small area of real grass (for our dogs), updated irrigation, removed gravel and added river rock. I was so pleased with the work that I contracted them to do my front yard and side yards as well. For the front yard, Nick the owner, provided a scale drawing of the new layout following our conversations about what I was looking for. After HOA approval, they transformed my mainly gravel front yard into a beautiful park-like environment with turf, new plants, new lights, new irrigation, new pavers. It's beautiful and I couldn't be more pleased. Finally, I asked them to update my side yard. It was originally an ugly, unused gravel area with weeds. After collaborating with Nick, he came up with a beautiful design that once again transformed a small space. They added grass (for the dogs), irrigation, pavers, river rock, a new hose bib, lighting, bottle brush trees that will eventually provide nice shade for this east facing area (but won't overwhelm the space), and they assembled several vego planters (for which I haven't quite decided what I want planted there) Nick, along with his foreman Guillermo and the rest of the team, are professional, responsible, responsive, creative, collaborative, easy to work with, and create beautiful spaces. I kept adding to the projects and they took every request in stride. I couldn't be more happy with the transformation they completed at my home and recommend them without hesitation. They have even more capabilities including building outdoor kitchens, fireplaces/firepits, ponds, etc. When the time comes for the next addition to my yard, I will be reaching out to them!!!

The project proceeded smoothly, remained on schedule, and produced a great outcome. We are very pleased with Nick Bourque and his Tranquil Oasis Team and highly recommend them for any landscape design project. Nick listened to our ideas and produced a brilliant design that allows us to enjoy our entire yard. He was very collaborative during the design and installation process. He incorporated our ideas for materials and plants into the design. He also clearly explained why certain ideas were not feasible. Guillermo and his crew worked efficiently and diligently. They showed up on time every day and cleaned up at the end of each day. Our neighbors even commented on how impressed they were with the team's punctuality and work ethic. Nick maintained an open line of communication keeping us updated on the schedule for each week. He showed up daily to monitor the status of the project. He promptly addressed any isolated issues. Overall, we feel extremely fortunate to have worked with Tranquil Oasis Landscapes. The project was the best experience we had collaborating with a contractor during our 30+ years as homeowners.

From the start the process was a slam dunk. That is not a statement I would commonly make and I…read morepersonally have very high expectations. They were responsive. showed up and provided a professional quote. It made the other companies look like the JV team. Other companies were trying to schedule a "sales lead" and "design consult". MVP was showing up and delivering.....doing both. That alone sealed the deal. Their price seemed fair. After the Project was complete and in hindsight, the price now seems very low compared to the value, quality, care and safety provided. At the initial consultation i told them what I wanted. They listened and also provided feedback. They had different ideas and suggestions that changed the dynamic. Those ideas were definitely superior to my own. I felt confident and relieved after the initial meeting. After accepting the quote they were very very fast. I thought my timeline and expectations were tight. I can admit my expectations were somewhat unrealistic. I fully anticipated at least a week delay. They drastically exceeded and beat my speed expectations. Absolutely amazing. The crews showed up and performed very high quality work in a clean and safe manner. There was absolutely no "hand holding" everything was correct. Which blew my mind. This was not an "easy job". I had an existing pool. Unknown locations. Unknown functionality. They showed up knew exactly what to do and did it. They took extreme care of my existing infrastructure. The bottom line If you are looking for a reliable, quality driven solution look no further. These guys are the ones you want.

I hired Blossom Oak Landscaping in 2023, working directly with Gordon Palmer, to complete the full…read morelandscaping for both the front and backyard of my newly purchased home in Gilbert. At the same time this project was happening, my wife was diagnosed with stage four cancer. Because of her condition, we were traveling constantly seeking treatment, and I was not able to be present at the house while the work was being done. I trusted Gordon completely to take care of everything and deliver excellent results. I paid $52,000, exactly what he asked for, without negotiating a single dollar--because I wanted quality work and peace of mind during one of the most difficult periods of my life. Unfortunately, that trust was misplaced. The materials used were clearly the cheapest options available. The lighting installed on the front-yard stairs was very poor quality and is now completely dead. I had to personally replace it with proper sensor lights at my own expense. The front water fountain was supposed to be centered with my sliding front door, which I specifically requested, but it was installed off-center. The backyard is not properly leveled--there are visible uneven areas where some sections are higher than others. There are also noticeable gaps between the tiles throughout the backyard, which should never happen in a project of this scale or cost. I did not leave a review immediately because my focus was entirely on my wife's health and survival. However, every time I look at my front and backyard, it honestly makes me sad. I trusted someone to do the right thing while I was away dealing with a life-or-death situation, and instead I feel that advantage was taken of my absence. What makes this even more upsetting is seeing my neighbors' landscaping--beautiful designs, clean work, and high-quality lighting--for less than two-thirds of what I paid. I am writing this review so others know what happened to me. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Blossom Oak Landscaping or Gordon Palmer. Please be extremely careful. Knowledge means nothing without honesty.

We contacted Pondscapes to figure out if our pond was worth keeping and if we could successfully take it off of our aquaponics system and have it running smoothly (and hopefully more maintenance free) on it's own pump and filter system. In our first phone conversation, Ralph took the time to listen to my needs, concerns and questions and we determined a time for him to come out to take a look at our existing pond and provide us with an estimate. We discussed the kinds of systems we could go with along with a few extra features (that were optional) like lighting, which we opted not to go with. He gave us an estimate which we thought was fair and very reasonable considering the amount of work that needed to be done. Luckily, he had an opening in his schedule for the following month, so we went ahead and hired him for the job. Ralph and his team showed up on time (no small task coming from Queen Creek) and did an amazing amount of work in 3 days! We literally went from having a murky, unhealthy looking pond, to a crystal clear, gorgeous pond with a fish cove and water feature in a matter of days!! The best thing is that it is virtually maintenance free and it's an absolutely stunning feature in our backyard. We would highly recommend Pondscapes to anyone we know and we hope to use Ralph and his team for our next home!

Multiple mature, full, flowering shrubs were cut down into stiff, unnatural box-like shapes with most of the blooms removed. The entire look of my yard was drastically changed in a single visit. This is not professional landscaping - it's careless and shows a lack of basic pruning knowledge. When I contacted the owner about it, my concerns were dismissed and he hung up on me. Save yourself the frustration and go with a more competent company. Photos speak for themselves. ***Update***: The owner's response speaks for itself. Rather than addressing the legitimate concerns about the quality of work, he chose to attack me personally and publicly, calling me disgustingly rude and telling other businesses never to work with me. This condescending and unprofessional response only confirms why we will never use this company again.
