    Corner bliss
    Nyla M.

    From my first contact with Kyle, through the end of his team's rebuilding my small inner courtyard pond, communication was clear, prompt, and professional. Kyle explained everything they were going to do before they began then reviewed it with me afterward. Finally, he followed up with an email so I could do my follow up maintenance using the correct product. The end result is lovely. The waterfall dances and the water sings. The sweet little plants they used as a border will hopefully fill in and it will be a gorgeous oasis in the city. Affordable Ponds wasn't the lowest bid I received but it was far from the highest. And I think they earned every cent. Happy to add my voice to the chorus of solid recommendations.

    So happy with the work they did. Excellent communication, and affordable and up front pricing. The guys removed an existing non-functioning hideous pond which was really a giant gravel pit then installed a three-tiered waterfall pond. We love it and hope the birds and wildlife will too. The staff were great, worked fast as it only took a day and a half! They cleaned up nicely and we would highly recommend this company for all your pond needs.

    Great customer service. I was looking for someone to service my pond. These guys came recommended and they do not fall short. Amazing service very professional. Joe and Chris came and took care of my pond. They pumped the water,cleaned everything,changed the filters and made it look better. They did a thorough job. Chris and Joe were very helpful,professional and the price was right. I recommend this company. Two thumbs up. Thank for an amazing service.

    Just starting on the job.

    On April 29 five men worked for seven hours and transformed a barren piece of earth into a beautiful stream and pond setting. On April 30 we began watching birds utilize the waterfalls for bathing. The folks at Affordable Ponds did a great job. To start with, they were careful not to damage the adjacent patio as they moved tons of rock into the back yard. They worked with team precision. I took photos throughout the whole process. Mid-way through I thought "How can this come out well?". As the work progressed, it was fascinating to watch the transformation. These guys are masters. All of a sudden I could see the pond, stream and waterfalls take shape. Wow! In the end they did the finishing touches. They added waterfall lighting, planted a variety of plants, and cleaned up. They answered all of our questions. We highly recommend this company.

    Jeff and his crew were absolutely amazing. When we bought our home we had a large cesspool of a pond in the front yard that he transformed into an oasis. He was extremely punctual and was able to rebuild the pond in less than a week as well as deal with our many questions and ideas. All in all we strongly recommend working with Jeff.

    The crew after their great work!

    We couldn't be more pleased with the work of Affordable Ponds. They were communicative beforehand, clear on what they'd do, arrived on time, and finished the job in unbelievable efficiency. They completely disassembled our old pond, readjusted its path and falls to a much greater capacity and more appealing to the eye, and did it all in one day! They were fun to have around, and super friendly. No extra costs, cleaned up the area well and guaranteed their work. I recommend their work to the highest degree!

    The completed gorgeous fall! He also goes over which plants you want to keep and replants them.

    See all

    Sean and Kyle came out several times to work on our aging pond--and stayed with it until the leak was resolved. They did great work

    Luis is a nice, positive guy, and I'm bummed I have to leave this review. Unfortunately he was…read morewoefully underprepared for my job he bid and performed. I hired Green Zone to dig a ~45' trench to a shed in my backyard at 2' deep for electrical conduit. He initially bid the job at one day and $810. I made the mistake of assuming he had a trencher and other equipment for this task. He showed up on day 1 with a gas auger for post holes, not a trencher. After a couple hours on day 1, he said the cost would actually be $1500 , nearly double the original cost because of some unexpected difficulty with rocks and other debris. He spent a ton of time trying to get the auger to start/restart throughout the day. Of course he wasn't able to finish that day, and said he'd come back with electric tools more appropriate for the job. On the second day, he came back with the same gas auger, though it seemed to be in somewhat better running order. About halfway through that day, he said he wouldn't be able to dig a straight trench because of debris. He eventually got someone to bring an electric saw he used to remove this debris, to his credit. At the end of the second day, he said he was going to come back with a mini excavator to finish the job. On the third day, he did come back with one, but it was extremely large for the space and resulted in a completely destroyed yard surface, a damaged structure in the yard, and concerns about the shed foundation.

    "Do not let the high rating or social media videos fool you. I paid $750 for a sloppy, rushed job…read morethat I had to supervise myself. Despite claiming years of experience, Daniel showed a complete lack of basic horticultural knowledge. I had to stay outside for 6 hours (9 AM - 3 PM) because he didn't seem to understand simple plant logic--like the proper '4 and 4' spacing (4 inches of soil and 4 inches of mulch) to prevent plant rot. Major Failures: * Logistical Oversight: The crew arrived without a wheelbarrow. After an initial disagreement, Daniel acknowledged it had been requested, but they were forced to improvise using a trash can and my personal buckets. This lack of proper equipment led to an inefficient process and unbalanced soil use. * The 'Extra Time' Dispute: I paid a premium for a 4-hour job, but it took 6 hours because I had to constantly correct the work. Daniel claimed the extra time was my fault for insisting on correct measurements, and he suggested I should be 'happy' he didn't charge me for those extra hours or a trip fee to get more soil. In reality, the soil shortage and the delays were caused by his own lack of preparation and proper tools. * Poor Execution: The results are unprofessional. As my photos show, the 4-inch edging is wavy and buckled with gaps, the plant spacing is lopsided, and the dirt circles are inconsistent. * Final Impression: Daniel left before a final walkthrough was finished. It is unacceptable to blame a customer for the time it takes to supervise a 'professional' who arrives under-equipped. I was prepared to give this business a glowing referral, but the lack of skill and preparation makes that impossible. Save your money and find a service that takes pride in their work." Thank you for your response. I'd like to clarify a few points so future customers have an accurate understanding of my experience. I selected your business based on the quality of work shown in your reviews and project examples, and I paid a premium rate expecting a similar level of professionalism. The scope of my project--planting small shrubs and grasses, applying mulch, and minor leveling--was straightforward compared to the larger installations you advertise. The job was discussed and priced as a 4-hour service, but it ultimately took approximately 6 hours with a three-person crew. My concern is not the additional time, but that even with the extended time, several agreed-upon elements were still not completed to a consistent or satisfactory standard. Throughout the process, I made an effort to be flexible. When additional items came up, I framed them as "if time allows," and I remained available because I was asked to be present for clarification. However, I found myself needing to repeatedly restate basic instructions--such as consistent plant spacing and proper soil and mulch depth--because those details were not being followed consistently. For that reason, I do not agree that the additional time was caused by my involvement. My presence was a direct result of needing to ensure the work met the agreed-upon expectations, not the cause of the delays. Prior to the job, I also communicated a change regarding the rubber mulch, as it could not be prepared for adhesive. I asked that it simply be leveled, similar to the river rock, which you agreed to. However, neither the mulch nor the rock leveling was completed, and I was ultimately told there was no time due to the job running over. There were also preventable inefficiencies. Arriving without requested equipment required improvising with my personal items, and the need for additional soil could likely have been avoided with better preparation and handling. Toward the end of the job, the work appeared rushed, and a proper final walkthrough was not completed before departure, despite my attempt to address remaining concerns. After the job, I reached out directly to express that while I appreciated the effort, I was disappointed in the overall finish and the rushed elements that were not completed as expected. The response I received focused primarily on the time spent exceeding four hours, rather than addressing the quality concerns raised. My review reflects these specific concerns: lack of preparation, inconsistent execution, and the need for ongoing supervision to meet basic expectations. I would have preferred a more professional response focused on addressing the concerns raised rather than assigning blame, as that is ultimately what future customers rely on when evaluating a business.

Josh and Kyle were methodical in the process of supporting the porch, removing the old beams and installing the new ones. Since there were 6 beams, the process was done in two stages. The team demonstrated excellent skill in installing the metal anchors in concrete and then cutting the beams to fit perfectly in place. This was a very technical renovation and we couldn't be more pleased with the professionalism and skill of the construction crew. The renovation was also a very fair value. I highly recommend J's for your outdoor custom projects even if it isn't technically landscaping!

After going back to read reviews and talking to friends, we found J's Custom Landscaping. From our initial appointment with Nick, we were thrilled with his attention to detail and referral to landscape architect, Harley Barber who created an amazing initial design. Nick then worked with us to provide solid cost quotes and we refined the vision into what our budget was. The crews who worked on the project were super friendly, paid attention not to disrupt the front yard landscaping and were just amazing workers in all sorts of winter weather. Both Nick and Jay (who worked with us on the patio cover) were amazing communicators throughout our project. It was finished on time and on budget and we are super thrilled with all of the work that was completed. I would highly recommend working with J's Custom Landscaping for any yard transformation project. From start to finish, we were so happy to work with them!
