We hired Tranquil Oasis Landscapes for a complete backyard renovation and replacement of our irrigation system, and we're extremely happy with how everything turned out. What stood out the most throughout the project was Nick's attention to detail and the continued pride he takes in his work after more than 20 years of experience. At one point, the pavers that were delivered didn't meet his standards, so he had the entire shipment returned rather than installing subpar materials. That told me a lot about the kind of company he runs. The quality of the finished product speaks for itself. The pavers have clean, straight lines, our garden area was laid out perfectly, and the artificial turf looks great (our dogs have already put it to the test and it has held up wonderfully). [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nick was easy to work with from beginning to end. He listened to what we wanted, was honest throughout the process, and also suggested improvements we hadn't thought about, including solving our drainage issues and running low-voltage wiring around the backyard so we'll be able to add landscape lighting later without tearing anything up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] His crew was professional and skilled as well. Our project wasn't the biggest one they'll ever do, but after this experience I'd have no hesitation hiring Tranquil Oasis Landscapes again or recommending them to friends and family. One neighbor already plans to use them after touring our backyard, speaks for itself! read more

I recently used Tranquil Oasis to complete several landscaping projects at my home. It all started with 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. [[HIGHLIGHT]]For the front yard, Nick the owner, provided a scale drawing of the new layout following our conversations about what I was looking for.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I kept adding to the projects and they took every request in stride.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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!!! read more

Nick and his team recently completed landscaping my front yard. I didn't have a definite idea of what I wanted, just a few thoughts about things I wanted to include, and Nick came up with a beautiful design. The workers were polite, arrived on time every day and cleaned up when they left. The foreman, Guillermo, was wonderful. He kept things running smoothly and answered all my questions. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I requested a few changes along the way and they accommodated everything with no trouble.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The materials used are top quality and the workmanship is excellent. They really take pride in what they do. I am very happy with my new front yard and will contact them again when I am ready to do the backyard. read more

Tranquil Oasis Landscapes recently completed a xeriscape design and installation for our front yard and backyard. 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. [[HIGHLIGHT]]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.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]He incorporated our ideas for materials and plants into the design. He also clearly explained why certain ideas were not feasible.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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. [[HIGHLIGHT]]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.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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. read more

I cannot say enough fantastic things about Nick and his foreman Guillermo and team. I knew some elements that I wanted incorporated into my backyard renovation, and Nick took these ideas and came up with a blueprint that was beyond what I myself could have imagined for the space. Nick and his team really care about the work they do and everything was very professional and top quality materials and work. I also had three pre-purchased pergolas that they put together and anchored to the ground. This work was done a couple of months ago and all structures and plantings have stood strong against these monsoon storms and haboobs we have been having recently. We basically gutted the entire backyard except for the actual pool itself. It is absolutely my dream backyard now. Nick and his team also designed a beautiful waterfall for a sacred garden space. Note the picture is a portion of the waterfall itself. We are going to add the plantings at a later date. There are several before pictures that show the scant plantings and huge area of grass that Nick and team had just begun demo work on. They also added lighting effects. Nick and his team are very caring and put a lot of love into the space. It is absolutely gorgeous and I highly recommend Tranquil Oasis Landscapes. read more

We were in need of some new landscaping after having a pool installed. We contacted Nick at Tranquil Oasis and he came up with an incredible re-design of our existing landscaping. Nick was very responsive and took into consideration all of our needs and some of the quirks of our yard. Nick and his crew gave us the desert oasis we were looking for. We were so happy with it that we are now considering having him re-design our front yard as well in the near future. Super professional, on time, and gave the type of elite customer service that is so rare these days. I highly recommend Tranquil Oasis Landscapes. read more

When I moved into my house over 10 years ago, I was lucky enough to find Nick and Tranquil Oasis Landscapes to design and install my front and back yards, which were dirt. I loved my low maintenance, yet lush landscaping when Nick and his crew finished My backyard is complete with a water feature, fire pit, flower beds, and plenty low maintenance, colorful plants. My backyard was indeed transformed into a peaceful oasis that I can enjoy myself, or with friends and family. Feedback is consistent that my backyard is beautiful and relaxing - just what I hoped for. Fast forward to last month when I decided it was time for a refresh after the heat of the recent summers took its toll. I think when you ask that someone come back to do additional work, it says a great deal about professionalism and satisfaction with the work. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nick came out and provided a bid within a couple of days and started work within a week.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He always has great ideas and suggestions. As usual, the crew showed up on time and completed the work as scheduled. It's like a I have a new front and back yard! Nick has a great eye for design and his crew is fast and accomplished. I could not be happier!! read more

Nick, Guillermo, and team did an incredible job landscaping our front yard. We couldn't believe how quickly and competently they were able to completely transform the space, from demo and tree removal to wall construction, pavers, irrigation, lighting, and planting. Recommend them highly! read more

Nick and his team with Tranquil Oasis did an amazing job with our front and backyard. We had new travertine pool decking put in, new turf, a new paver walkway, and all new plants and gravel throughout both yards. The team was professional and very efficient. They finished our entire project in under 2 weeks. They always showed up on time and worked until the expected end time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nick communicated with us throughout the entire process and was on site often to help walk us through different things.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We highly recommend Tranquil Oasis Landscapes! read more

I recently decided to renovate my backyard and incorporate two pergolas that I had previously purchased within the hardscape around my pool and backyard. Additional features I wanted was a floating counter, fireplace, and entertainment wall. One of the biggest challenges I had was incorporating my existing hardscape and pool decking from 10 years ago within the new hardscape so it would transition seamlessly. I contacted multiple landscape design companies for estimates and decided to go with Tranquil Oasis. Tranquil Oasis did an excellent job, and I am beyond pleased with the outcome. Out of all the estimates I received, Nick (owner of Tranquil Oasis) was the ONLY company that measured the space and identified potential obstacles up front that I would be facing. Additionally, he was the only one to provide a scaled design with his estimate. Nick took the time to review my initial design I had drafted on landscaping software and pointed out issues that I would have never considered. Tranquil Oasis came in lower than most of the other estimates, and the companies they were higher than (not by much), I had already decided right away I would not use for other glaring reasons. Nick's foreman Guillermo and team were great. They were on time every day, maintained a clean and safe workspace, kind, had excellent work ethic, and paid attention to detail. Throughout the project, they were very flexible with any changes/enhancements I requested. As with any project, unforeseen issues arise. Nick and team were able to recommend solutions and, on a few occasions, decided that it needed to be done a different way instead of leaving as is. They took the time to fix the issue and make sure it met their high standards. After the project was completed, any questions or concerns I had, were addressed promptly. Nick was quick to come out and assess any issues (all small) and act. I knew I would be spending quite a bit of money on this project especially with the cost of materials in today's world. I took a leap of faith (coupled with some due diligence) with Tranquil Oasis Landscaping. Nick had very unique ideas and touches that really elevated the design beyond what I could have imagined. His standards and integrity are very high, and it showed throughout the entire project. He did not cut any corners. I highly recommend Tranquil Oasis Landscaping. I have added before and after pictures. The first 3 are before. read more

Nick was very creative and truly transformed our yard into an oasis. They used LED lights and we get compliments all the time from neighbors walking by our home at how beautiful the landscape and yard is. I highly recommend Tranquil Oasis. read more

My girlfriend and I recently purchased a new home in the east valley that had dirt only in the backyard and called several landscapers with a vision on what we thought we wanted. After several quotes we began to realize that our expectations and what it would cost didn't match up. However, we hadn't received our quote from Nick and we were pleasantly surprised with what we got! He took our vision and made it a reality by recommending alternatives that we had never considered. His vision was more than we would have expected and the results were outstanding! Nick and his team were courteous, explained everything up front and made sure everything we had was what we wanted. We have recommended Tranquil Oasis to everyone that has asked and even called them back out a few weeks ago to install pavers in our front yard. Great company and we will definitely be using them again when we get ready for artificial turf in the front. read more

I actually did not get to work with Nick because the project I had in mind was not something that he could take on at this time, but I wanted to leave my review here because I was very impressed with the interaction we had. Nick was responsive, listened well, and was resourceful, and he understood what I wanted better than I did! And he was very honest and upfront about why he could not take on the project. I would definitely reach out to him again when I have a different project and recommend him highly to people who are considering landscaping projects! read more

Awesome work and very particular on making sure lines are straight and everything matches. The choices in greenery were perfect. We ended doing the front and back of our house and it's like we live on a resort. Love it. read more

This is our second project with Tranquil Oasis. This time, our front yard. Since install finished, people just stop in the middle to the road and stare. Tonight, we had just started taking the dog for a walk when, a couple parked in the road for longer than usual, so we walked up. She had driven by and loved the yard so much, that she ran home to get her husband to show him. Thanks to Nick's design and his hard working crew, we have an amazing transformation of our front yard for which we get to accept all the complements. We are already working with Nick to transform our back yard. read more

Nick and his team did an amazing job. Nick worked with me to tailor the design to our needs, finished the job when he promised, and kept me updated daily to what was going on. I highly recommend calling Nick for your needs. read more

I reach out to the company for an appointment. The response was very fast. I have a new build house so it was alittle hard to find. Once he arrive he begin to ask me of my ideas. Wee exchanged back and forth and even though I wasn't really sure he seems ok. He recommended I wait until after I have my pool in before finishing the backyard. Ok but then we decided to hold off on the pool a few years because of the age of the small children. I emailed them back to share this info as I was ready to move forward on the landscaping it took to days for him to decline the job. That's 2 days I had decline services from 2 other companies. Now I'm back to the drawing board This review was about communication. When I got the decline via email it had no explanation of why he declined or any references. I'm a director of a facility & if I decline I also offer other choice and an explanation of why I denied. I can't comment on workmanship as I didn't see any. read more

Hiring Tranquil Oasis is exactly like hiring a close relative; honest, dependable and worry free. In fact, you will be more than happy and impressed with their work performance and results. One of the things we liked is the plants, trees & other vegetation are all under warranty. (Other landscapers we considered do not offer warrantees). Nick, the owner has come by the house weekly to monitor the plants, trees and other vegetation since completing the work. He will adjust the watering schedule (sprinkler system) based on how the plants and trees are doing. If needed, he will replace the ones that unfortunately "passed away." What we liked best is the layout and the design of our backyard. Nick brought a colored printed layout of the design which we made some minor adjustments/replacements. Before the work began, we knew exactly what we were getting. We are very happy with Tranquil Oasis. read more

We contacted Nick regarding building an outdoor BBQ area and he responded within an hour. We scheduled an at home meeting where I explained to Nick my vision of the area. Nick liked my idea, but when he came back with drawings he also had another option for the area that we were building on. His idea expanded our seating by three and looked amazing. We are so happy he suggested it and just did not take my idea and run with it. Nick suggested where to purchase tile from for the countertops and where to buy the grill and accessories from which we received a discount on by using Nick. He even volunteered to pick up the grill and accessories for us. Nick and his crew were great to work with, Nick was very thorough in explaining things all through the buildout, his crew was always here early and kept the worksite very clean and any questions we had of Nick or his crew were answered promptly. We have already let a couple of friends know about Nick and we know one of them has already had a job completed by him and his crew. We highly recommend giving Nick a call for your next outdoor project. read more

Nick designed a beautiful desert landscape and installed it quickly with no problems. The watering system has worked without a hitch, and the blooms on the plants and trees tell us we made a good decision to do a desert landscape and to have Tranquil Oasis install it. But what I think sets Tranquil Oasis apart from other companies is their availability AFTER the sale and installation. Nick has answered all of our questions (and there have been many) regarding weed control, and came back to our house to add binding to our new pathway. Nick even took the time to unclog my spray pump for me. On his own initiative, he reset the water controller for the winter months. In short, I strongly recommend Tranquil Oasis- for the design, the installation, and for their follow-up after the installation. Mark L. read more

Top Choice! These guys cleaned my entire backyard, for a good price too. Also, they were able to help me the same day I called.

Showing up on-time is not something that is common in this industry. I don't know how many other landscape designers I called prior to talking to Transquil, but even ones that had 5 stars with hundreds of reviews failed to show up on time so as you can imagine, when they showed up at the exact time they said they would, it would be a good sign. I didn't have a huge project for them, mostly finishing up a job that the last company was working on. Once they came back, they told me they would have my quote ready that afternoon and would email it. Quote same day? Unheard of. Sure enough, I received the quote and told them I'd like to start and received an email back minutes later stating they would start in two days. There was a hiccup along the way, not their fault, but they were professional and worked with me to get it resolved. At the end of the week, my yard is done, looks great and I couldn't be happier. I wish more landscape designers would understand how important showing up on time is... Thanks Transquil Oasis! read more

So far so good. As promised, I got an estimate and quote within a reasonable time.

I hired Nick to redo my entire yard and it now looks amazing and we are very happy. The job consisted of removal of concrete pool decking, plants, lawn and granite and installing a large travertine paver deck around the pool, new plants, lawn and all new irrigation. Nick and his team did the job quickly and ahead of schedule and it looks great. Nick has lots of great ideas for design and plant selection and was flexible and easy to work with. Easy to reach and always on time. He worked with me for quite a while on the design and provided great drawings and a detailed so we could see what to expect as we tweaked the design. Would hire Nick again in I had the need. read more

Unfortunately, we were unable to use Tranquil Oasis due to a scheduling conflict. However, Nick was incredibly professional; he was on time each and every time we had an appointment and his designs were clean, modern, and exactly what we wanted. We were disappointed that we were unable to work within his schedule, because he blew us away with what he could give us in our budget. Thank you Nick, next time we need someone you will be the first we call! read more

My wife and I wanted to redesign our backyard landscaping, but were unsure where to start. Our goal was to remove a rather large area of grass (talk about a monthly water bill and labor to maintain!) with desert plants and trees. We also wanted our yard to be more inviting to entertain family and friends, as well as for us to simply enjoy in the early mornings and evenings. That's where Nick and his team come in. Nick took the time to consult with us and then came back a week later with a creative landscaping design that captured our goals. Our new backyard design is highlighted with cobblestone pavers, an inviting fireplace, and a tranquil water fountain. To enhance the layout we added a couple of Palo Verde trees, boulders strategically laid out and over 20 desert plants. We were impressed with their dedication and commitment to quality. They truly care about their profession! The end result...we are enjoying our new Oasis! Thank you Nick and his hard-working team! read more

Beware wolf in sheeps clothing!!!! I recently moved to Queen Creek, not familiar with weather patterns in the valley needless to say!! Nick seemed so kind when he came out.....but boy after he had his thousands of cash $$$ in his hands the service went out the window and and down the road! One of the trees (that i didn't order....he decided what was better for me and planted who knows what) broke in half because of what I have come to know as a "haboob just two days after he planted them. Nick proceeded to tell me "too bad for you....I don't have to replace anything" He was rude, belligerent, said he would fix things and then never came back. Didn't show up for scheduled appointments..... and that's not all. He "fixed" my timers.....LOL with his $2000 "assessment" of my property and set the new trees to water THREE AND A HALF HOURS FOR TWO AND A HALF WEEKS....flooded my yard and wasted God only knows how many gallons of water?!?!!? He never did come back to check his work I had to hire a new company, which if fabulous by the way, to fix his mess.....in all fairness Nick replaced the tree with a Charlie Brown branch but at least he sent his guy back out...so from TOL I paid $3000 cash for 9 $75.00 trees!!! He was very threatening and I am furious!! This will not be the end of it! Again, beware of wolf in sheeps clothing!! :( read more

I recently completed a $20K project with Tranquil Oasis and I could not be any happier with the results. The project included a natural stone fire pit and built-in grill, pavers, water pipe repair, and landscaping.

Nick and his team recently completed our front yard landscaping, transforming the area from a wasteland to a most delightful xeriscape. The entire experience was wonderful - excellent workmanship, reasonable cost, and very timely completion. At the start, and throughout the process, Nick sought our input and made numerous constructive suggestions that improved the original Ten Eyck plan. We particularly liked the great care Nick took to obtain the best possible trees and shrubs. We recommend Tranquil Oasis without reservation. read more

Nick and his crew did an amazing job transforming my overgrown weeded backyard into a place where I can now sit, relax and have guests over. His knowledge and recommendations of plants and trees was far more than I expected. Very helpful and friendly. I interviewed a few landscapers and choose Nick for his honesty, suggestions and reasonable price. read more

I'd like to start this off by saying that I never leave positive or negative reviews on any site for any reason. However, after Nick and his cre at Tranquil Oasis completely transformed our yard, I felt compelled to share our experience. Nick was 1 of 5 landscapers that we initially met with. Nick was the only one that took it upon himself to draw up a design for us showing us exactly what we want. He was also able to work with us and get the price to the budget we could afford. He and his crew just finished the job and we were blown away. It far exceeded our expectations. His workers were amazing and professional and after comparing the complete cost of the project with the 4 others on a Yelp, Tranquil was much more fair on cost. It's so beautiful now that my fiancé and I have even decided to have our wedding in our back yard now. If you're looking for an honest down to earth business owner to take care of you and your landscaping needs, look no further. Thank you Nick for everything! read more

Great all around service! Tranquil Oasis put in our entire desert landscape: ground cover, plants, trees, lighting, drip system, and continues our maintenance twice a month. Always on time, professional, knowledgeable in both plants and design. A landscape co. that timely communicates and delivers what they promise. If you have an opinion as to what you might want planted, they will let you know if it will or will not work and why. read more

Tranquil Oasis recently completed a moderate sized landscape project for us based on a design by Scott Calhoun. We have been delighted with both the process and the outcome. Nick Bourque tastefully interpreted the design, making sure that the landscape features (grading, boulders, soil cover, and plants) look natural and appropriate. He installed a high quality irrigation system and upgraded some existing irrigation. He and his team were always punctual and organized. Nick kept us in the loop on what was happening and was always available to answer questions. He collaborated well with Scott and solved unforeseeable problems as they came up. When you make a big investment in your home you really want someone working for you who cares as much as you about how it turns out. Nick really gave 110% for us. If you are thinking about having landscape work done, you really should talk to Nick. read more
