    Mark, Roberto, and the installation team were a dream to work with from start to finish. We had major drainage issues and decided to replace some areas of our front/backyard with river rock and pavers. We researched for quite some time to find the right landscaping company and going with Alterra was a no-comparison type of decision. Mark's communication, professionalism, and kindness throughout the process was unparalleled. While a large landscaping project can be overwhelming, Mark explained his plan clearly and thoroughly and provided us with designs. This helped us visualize our project easily and the end result with identical to what we had imagined it to be (and even better in person!). The installation process was smooth and seamless. The team was efficient, hardworking, and respectful. Mark was on the job every single day of our project to make sure everything was moving along as planned and rolled up his sleeves to help as well- an incredible leader! We are so happy with the results and plan to use Alterra again for our future landscaping projects. We are very thankful to Mark, Roberto, and the rest of the team for their stellar service!

    Mark and his team are professional, efficient, knowledgeable, and courteous! We had Alterra Landscape Systems install turf and river rock in our backyard and it looks amazing! They were timely, thorough, did not rush the job, and did not cut corners! We thoroughly enjoy hanging out in our backyard thanks to Alterra Landscape Systems! We love them so much that we are also using their services for our front yard landscape project! Mark was very patient while waiting for our architectural plan approval from our HOA. We are very pleased with their work! It was seamless from start to finish! If you want a reputable company who is skilled at installing turf and skilled at working on a variety of landscape designs, look no further! Will upload the front yard photos upon completion of the job!

    I cannot recommend Mark and Alterra highly enough. We have hired Mark and his team twice now to install turf with some irrigation for the front yard and back yard. Even though it was a few years between the two jobs, he remembered us and treated us amazing both times. For the front, he installed pavers and turf, along with a border of river rocks and drought tolerant plants. For the back, he installed turf and topped off the pathway, going the extra mile to make sure everything looked clean and beautiful. The prices are very reasonable, even as the costs have increased from inflation and materials costs between the years of the projects, Alterra remained very competitively priced. They do the job right and they work very hard. For us, the back yard was done a week ago during two very, very hot 100 degree days. Both days, the men worked hard and Mark was out there working alongside them, which I highly respect. Mark has such great knowledge and works hard to make a beautiful yard while trying to keep prices down for us, the customer. He has remained available to help answer questions and takes the time to teach us how to use the drip system and maintain the yards well. Mark and his team are so great, we are so happy with them, we hired them twice!

    Mark and team transformed my backyard in just 3 days. I was very impressed with how efficiently they worked as they tackled several aspects of the project simultaneously and operated with precision and speed everywhere. They were professional and showed up on time each day, immediately getting to work once here. In the planning phase, Mark helped me with some design decisions and was thorough in his inspection of the property. He was then able to generate a proposal complete with a diagram and competitive pricing. I now have a new backyard less than a month after I initially contacted him. A solid experience all around.

    Mark and his team did a spectacular job transforming our backyard into a place of zen, in record time no less. From the very first interaction of getting an estimate, Mark was very professional and timely in providing everything we needed to make a decision and work with our HOA to get our plans approved. The end product speaks for itself with quality work done in 3 days. We're very satisfied with Alterra that we recommended them to our neighbors.

    Superb experience with Mark and his team. Very professional from the beginning as well as communicative. Competitive price with all details laid out and clear from the beginning. Mark and his team were prompt and delivered high quality results. Even after the job was done, he came by to check on things. Couldn't be happier with choosing Alterra. Definitely recommend and would hire again without a doubt. Thanks Mark.

    They made sure the river was deep enough to work as a natural working drain and narrow enough to accommodate the bridge I had bought
    Sheri M.

    Mark was referred to us by our neighbor and I'm SO happy I reached out to him. He was courteous, respectful, responsive and very professional. I had a vision for my small backyard project and he listened carefully, asked great questions, provided valuable insight and followed through on everything we agreed to. He even surprised me and made sure my one Magnolia tree was hooked up to working irrigation, something I hadn't even considered. I wanted to do the rock river myself so please forgive the picture only showing the river as partly completed as I need to get more rocks, but Mark made sure there was a weed barrier in place for my river and installed great pet turf. He consulted with me about the placement of the large stones to make sure they were where I wanted. He brought in a whole team which made the project fly by and the whole team was very respectful and kind. It also seemed like Mark takes good care of his team as I saw bottles of water, good equipment and safety gear. Great company to work with and I would highly recommend and use them again!

    Mark did the turf, rock, and mulch.

    Mark is exactly the kind of person you want to do business with - professional, punctual, and cares about a job done right, not just a job done and paid for. He worked with me on my design and helped suggest modifications when we needed to find ways to stay in budget. It was very evident that he takes pride in his work and cares about his customers. I would hire Alterra Landscape Systems again in a heartbeat.

    Can't say enough about Mike, Mark, Ricardo and his crew! We are grateful to have found them. They respond promptly and are generous with their time. Mike listened to our needs and gave great suggestions. In our front yard they installed a short wall on each side of the house and a paved walkway. Directly inside our front gate - a short wall. And in our back yard install some artificial turf and replace some mismatched blocks that were our "steps" to our retaining wall with incredible rounded steps constructed of blocks. We have received many compliments on our front yard. Ricardo and his crew are outstanding - very professional. They work very hard, are friendly and accommodating. It is quite evident that Mike, Mark, Ricardo and his crew care a lot about the quality of their work. If we need any landscape work in the future we will be sure to call them.

    Mark and Roberto and the rest of the team came into our backyard patio and transformed our space into a spacious and beautiful area for us to enjoy and entertain. They worked fast but did quality work. Mark (the owner) came up with a practical solution to assist with a drainage issue. Cannot say enough about how much we appreciate their dedication to solving our landscape issues!

The lien encumbered our property for three years. The work itself was a complete failure. The retaining wall collapsed. The owner never returned to repair defects or clean up after being paid in full. We had to hire private labor and purchase materials ourselves to address the damage. After an 16-18 month investigation, the California State License Board (CSLB) found 17 violations against this contractor's license, including 11 misdemeanor charges. He was fined $6,000. The investment property was listed for sale and could not sell due to the construction defects and the lien on title. We ultimately lost the property. All of this is documented public record.

We met with four different companies and received quotes from each, but we either weren't confident in their work or just didn't feel they were the right fit until we met with JG Lawns. Craig came out to provide a free estimate and was brutally honest LOL. He never tried to oversell us or promise things that weren't realistic.  His personality and knowledge earned our trust, and combined with fair pricing, made our final decision to move forward with this company. Our project was originally expected to take about a week, but due to issues with choosing pavements and the paving company shipping the wrong materials, it ended up taking about a month. Even with the unexpected delay, Eric and Jesus (his dad) were fantastic throughout the entire process. They kept us updated every step of the way, explained any changes, and always made sure we were comfortable with the plan before moving forward. Their crew worked incredibly hard every single day.
