When we decided it was time to go ahead with our landscaping, we contacted several landscape companies for quotes. Right from the start we found James from SonoranScapes the most responsive and professional. Other companies either took way too long to reply to calls or certainly were not the most innovative people to deal with. We previously worked with one landscaper to develop a design for the entire yard - back and front. While it took much longer than anticipated, it helped to give us a visual layout. This experience however, also gave us the necessary input to realize we did not want to continue working with that organization. The quote from SonoranScapes was the most competitive we received. The work was to complete implementation in both back and front of our property and James's quote encompassed all the work we wanted without cutting any corners. We were quoted nearly twice as much from other organizations. We had a few concerns about the design we had, and James was able to provide us with some great alternatives and suggestions to make the end project look outstanding. He was incredibly easy to work with, flexible and always responsive to any questions we had. We would also mention that James is very "hands-on", besides being onsite most of the time and very involved in the actual work. The SonoranScapes team was great throughout the entire process - they were prompt, respectful, professional, and most importantly delivered a STELLAR final product. James answered all our questions and checked in with us on a regular basis about the progress, and any updates. We couldn't have asked for anything more! We now have a beautiful and picturesque yard with an entertaining space. We highly recommend SonoranScapes. read more

Quick, efficient, loved the outcome of our backyard. Thank you to James and team for a job well done!

Very knowledgeable about type of plants and layout design. Bent over backwards to make sure we were completely satisfied with the final result. Added new patio pavers, new irrigation system, landscape lighting and plants. Reasonable pricing and professional work. Would highly recommend. read more

James has helped me with a few projects around my backyard. At first I just had him do some turf and pavers. I was impressed from the beginning his knowledge on the subject. I got quotes from a few other hardscape companies and it seemed like most of them didn't really know the details about their products. He did such a good job on that project, even going further with little details I hadn't even though about. The whole setup was very clean and professional. So I had him come back and do all my speakers, lights, and overall backyard rock covering. I did not know how much I wanted backyard speakers until he got it all set up and we played some songs. WOW! James puts in good quality stuff, not some cheap flimsy stuff that will break or that doesn't sound good. It's truly like a resort experience in my backyard now. Of all the contractors I've worked with on my new build, Sonoran Scapes is the most reliable and high quality! read more

We had the pleasure of using SonoranScapes for our backyard design and landscape. They did a great job and we are very pleased. James was easy to work with. He was quick to respond to txt and emails and showed up to appointments on time. Honest, hard working and dependable are hard to find these days and SonoranScapes are all those and more. We would not hesitate to use them again in the future! read more

I had pavers put in on both the the front and back along with artificial grass, lightning and irrigation included. James came out and offered a number of ideas which I appreciated and ways in which I could save money, that was a pleasant shift. The crew showed on time worked hard did a good job and checked in with me on a few occasions. They cleaned up beautifully and once the job was complete James wanted to make sure I was completely satisfied before final payment. read more

SonoranScapes Landscaping & Maintenance - Replaced the rocks and cement - Landscaping Near Me - Anthem , Arizona

James was the only company able to get me a green lawn in all seasons. I'm not sure if it's because of his skilled help, or if it's because of the fertilizing system he installed for us, but either way we are thrilled. They also adjust my watering depending on the time of year, and check my sprinklers on occasion to make sure my grass is getting evenly watered. Great service! Update: James just finished my landscape out my new house, and wow! We did inground trampoline that the kids absolutely love. All the tree lights match the pool lights and it looks like a night club in our yard. We also did in ground speakers and the sound matched the lights, like a night club. We could not be happier with the results! Thank you James and team! read more

I just want to say that James and his staff Do Amazing Work! We recently relocated to the area and realized that our yard was not pleasing to us since we spend most of our time outside. I called SonoranScapes and arranged to meet with James on a quick trip to town, went over ideas with one another, and he knew exactly what we wanted after discussions. When we moved into our home and I first saw the yard I was Very pleased with the final product. I want to Thank you James and will definitely be using your company for future projects. read more

Our project included removing a large ash tree, grass and brick border and installing a paver pad, paver border, artificial turf and installing a gazebo. Looks great and we couldn't be happier with this company. Reasonable cost, good advice and excellent crews. read more

A basic one star for just not calling back. I called and got the female receptionist/office worker and she took down a bunch of information including my phone number and what we needed and never got back to us. Normally I wouldn't care I would call again but we actually had an emergency situation with the leaking drip system and we needed somebody to come out. No courtesy call no nothing in my left a second message it went on returned as well. I have no idea what their quality of services but based on the phone response I would say it's probably not a great idea to do business with someone who won't call a perspective customer back. read more

James' crew with Kevin at the lead do an outstanding maintenance job. They continually leave the yard tight and spotless. Way to go and thank you. read more

James is a true professional. They did a great job on my front yard. Tons of compliments from neighbors. Good listener, provides simple informative advice to keep maintenance easy. read more

We were more than pleased with James and his wonderful crew!!! They completely re-did our front/back drip system, put in about 19 plants and took care of an eyesore area for our dogs "potty" that we inherited with the house when we bought it over 5 years ago. He showed up on time, did the work perfectly and we are thrilled about the way it came out-and in only 2-1/2 days! read more

installed a new putting green and dog run. beautifully done. professional. fast. not the cheapest but not the highest quote either. team deserved ten stars. could not have been happier read more

I highly recommend using SonoranScapes. James is awesome. James was professional, responsive and finished the job quickly. James set a schedule for the work and kept to that schedule- which is pretty rare in my experience. I had a rough idea of what we wanted and a set budget and James came up with a great plan and stuck to our budget. We are very happy with our new backyard! Thank you James! read more

I needed some suggestions on improving the consistency of watering on my lawn. I also needed a few one-off jobs completed (cleaning river rock beds & removing a brush pile). I got the company's number from our neighbor, who uses this company. I called and left a message. Within an hour, the owner, James, called me back. He said he could come by the next day. He took a look at the various things I needed, and gave me some suggestions. He even gave me a bunch of sprinkler head replacements, without charging me and without knowing if I would ultimately hire him for the jobs. That night, I had quotes on the various projects. I hired the company to complete my projects and they're returning next week. Couldn't ask for better customer service and I'm able to spend my money in the community. read more

I was losing thousands of gallons of water (and hundreds of dollars) through our aged drip irrigation system. Sonoran diagnosed the situation, engineered and installed a solution, all within the span of one week. Fast, effective, and very professional. James is very pleasant to deal with and very responsive. His crew who did the work were also very professional; they treated our yard as if it were their own. Great work. Very happy with the result. read more

I am beyond pleased with the work James and his crew did. My backyard was a mish-mash of ground covers and boarders and I was looking to replace it all with pavers that complimented the existing plants. James really listed to what I was ultimately trying to get to as well he offered additional ideas that really tied it all together. His crew is amazing - hardworking and fast. I give my highest recommendation to SonoranScapes for anyone looking for a landscaper. read more

Great company! James is honest, hard working, and very competitive on pricing. They came to my house on time and did a better job then I could ever do. Will use again! read more

We've used SonoranScapes since we bought our home in 2017. They have always done a fantastic job, even discovering issues we weren't aware of and correcting them as well. We are "snowbirds" and are most comfortable leaving our home and landscape in their capable hands. James and his crew have always responded quickly when called, especially in emergency situations. Very happy with their service and would highly recommend them to anyone needing a landscaping and irrigation company. read more

UPDATE: ***After owners arrogant response, I'll just give them 2 stars like they deserve, I shouldn't have to supervise your crews, that is YOUR job. I am not a tree arborist, But, the professional tree arborist who looked at them days after you guys did it said it looked like crap, and took the time to explain the proper way to cut tree branches, being not too close to damage the branch collar or too long so that the branch stubs will not allow the branch collar to heal itself... both types of bad cuts being evident all over the tree and he graciously pointed them out to me and I will happily send you photos of all the bad cuts, if you want. These are the types of things you hire a professional for. So yes, I thought it was fine at the time, but a professional seems to think otherwise. So I am going to trust his opinion. Don't try and make me sound unreasonable for expecting a good job, especially when the job wasn't completed the first time. Hiring you was a mistake and just goes to show that yelp reviews can easily be pumped up by friends, business networks, and down right phony reviews by fake profiles that only have one single review ever written*** I called them because of all the stellar reviews here, so how could they not be awesome, right? Well.. I don't know. I am not convinced. They are OK. I called them to fix my sprinkler system and get a full service lawn care in the front and back yards, as well as some tree trimming. James came out to bid the job, quoted $350 and we shook hands. He also replaced a leaky end cap on a drip system line while he was there. He didn't investigate the drip system that much and it turned out that a 24V solenoid needed to be changed on the front system which was causing constant water flow. I figured that out on my own a week later as I will still having drip system issues and didn't feel like calling them back a third time, and repaired it on my own. The lawn care and tree trimming were done when I was out of town, I came home that night and it hadn't looked like my yard had really been touched at all. Weeds were still everywhere, the grass in the back hadn't been mowed or trimmed, and the trees didn't look trimmed. I contacted James and he sent his crew out to make the job right. They showed up and re-did the work and it looked better when they came out. I will say we had another landscape company come out a few days later to quote some monthly/quarterly maintenance and they said our trees looked like crap. I am dissapointed overall. Oh well. Lesson learned. Another Anthem company that gets great reviews from their business network circles and friends, but the work never meets review expectations. I would give 2 stars, but I will give 3 since he made an attempt to make things right. read more

The owner James is very thorough and passionate about what he does. He is very knowledgeable about grass seed and helped bring my lawn back to life. Will not see anyone else! read more

Had my new patio installed last week by Sonoran Scapes who also replaced my irrigation system .I am thrilled with the results. These people are total professionals at what they do ! The attention to detail and efficiency amazed me .I could not be happier ! read more

We couldn't be happier with our experience using SonoranScapes! We've had many contractors do work on our house over the last several years and SonoranScapes was one of the best! The quote was competitive and the quality of work was 5 star. Crews showed up on time every day and completed the job much faster than we anticipated. Would recommend them to everybody! Thank you for a wonderful job! We love it! read more

I recently used sonoranscapes for irrigation repairs in my property in anthem. I am from out of state so I needed a reputable trustworthy company to handle these complicated repairs. James came out and I felt comfortable with him. His price was very reasonable and the work was done in a very professional way. In the future I will not hesitate to call them for any landscape/irrigation work. read more

I called today because we needed a repair to the backflow device. We are selling the house and needed it to be done quickly. James called me back right away and was even able to do the work the same day. I would definitely recommend them!!! Thanks for awesome service! read more

Once again, I had a great experience working with James and his crew. I had some emergency irrigation work that needed to be done at my home and James showed up on time and in person. When you're on a well, it's really nerve-wrecking to see so much water standing in your yard. Take it from me, call SonoranScapes for those emergency situations that some other, less-educated workmen (not least of all is me) may cause. You can trust these guys to fix the problem when the situation is sensitive. read more

Sonoran Scapes.....James and his crew are miracle workers! Needed some overgrown plants and a lot of unsightly weeds "gone" in front, back and side yard as well as tree trimming, etc. (Having lived in New England most of my life, then in Cleveland Heights I always managed to accomplish my own landscaping but reality set in soon after moving to the Desert Hills area and realized I had to find a reputable company to take over!) Well, James came to the house, walked the property with me, gave advice and a very fair estimate the same day. Work was started within two weeks, and due to the volume of the job the crew returned a few days later to finish the weed removal and trimming of a few shrubs in the back yard. I cannot say enough about the quality of work... the yard looks so amazing now! James and his crew displayed the utmost in professionalism and courteousness, focusing on the task throughout! I highly recommend Sonoran Scapes Landscaping and the fabulous crew~ Thank you again!! ~Cheri read more

We were very pleased with James and Sonoran landscaping. James came to fix our irrigation system (dripper) and noted a problem with tree roots. He offered a reasonable price to remove the roots and replace the valve. He also provided some help with our gate. We would definately hire James again. He was pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. read more

Always there when I need help. From broken sprinklers to new plants. Great business to work with.

We had a front yard that needed to be completely redone. James designed, removed and installed a new landscape and we couldn't be happier. James and his crew were very professional, timely and clean. Competitive pricing. We are completely happy and will be using him again. read more

Great company. Did everything they promised. I'm happy I found them and would heartily recommend them to anyone looking for a landscape service. Jim F. Anthem read more

James & his crew just finished re-doing our rear yard with artificial turf, a pvc irrigation system & new rock. They did an excellent job, were always on time & when finished made sure everything was cleaned up & working. What I especially liked was that James always promptly returned my calls & visited a few times with us prior to beginning the job to make sure we were all on the same page. Would highly recommend him. read more

I recently had Sonoranscapes install artificial grass in my front yard in Anthem. I met with owner James on selecting the type grass from several samples. He took the time to explain the pros and cons of each sample and quote a price that was very competitive. He had his team ready to install in 2 days. His team were very professional and installed two separate pieces off grass in just over two hours! James came by after to personally inspect the yard and make sure we were pleased with the finished job. I would highly recommend Sonoranscapes for artificial grass install or any other landscaping services. read more

I was not a customer of Sonoran Scapes, I had another company do my back yard when I moved in. I was not happy with that company and I called Sonoran Scapes to fix a problem with a tree. Even though I was not a customer Sonoran came out within 2 days and fixed my problem and gave me good tips on talking care of my plants. I will use Sonoran Scapes again and I am now a customer! Thanks gor a job well done. Bill read more

Sonoran Scapes responded right away to my call for help with our irrigation system! He came out within a couple hours of my call and was very professional and got the job done! We'll be calling again if we encounter any other problems! Can't beat the same day service and reasonable service charge! read more

I chose this company solely on the great reviews on here. I unfortunately have not experienced the same great service. I requested an appointment via website and never received a call back. I left two additional voicemails before receiving a call back. When I received the call back I was told they were very busy and to text their number my address and they could come out that day. After waiting around for 8hours and taking the day off from work no one showed up. This all took place over a four day period and we still have not received a call back in regards to no one even showing up. Any company that is too busy to no show on a customer needs to highly consider hiring additional help. read more

What a joke this guy is. His service is awful, his customer service is awful and expects to get paid in advance even after photos shown to him about the poor work done. Be careful of this guy. read more

Sonoran Scapes has been a breathe of fresh air in a field where businesses have a reputation that being less than stellar. James, the owner of the company has been directly involved in the care of my landscaping and irrigation issues. I have used others in the past, but I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone, you will not be disapointed read more

We had a very good experience with SonoranScapes. James was extremely responsive. He had a quote to us the same day & performed the work the very next day. The job was done professionally and looks great! read more
