I hired John Kensla from Infinity Sky Landscaping to overhaul my backyard, which was a disjointed…read moremix of artificial turf patches, random grass areas, and a retaining wall with no coherent theme. John guided us through a clear three-phase process: 1. First, he did a thorough site assessment and gathered our input. 2. Then he presented three design options and iterated based on our feedback and budget constraints. 3. Finally, he delivered a detailed digital plan that included a full plant list and phased implementation. John was straightforward and professional throughout, open to multiple rounds of feedback, and helped us choose plants suited for our area. He also connected us with reliable contractors and even showed up on-site to ensure the work matched his design. In short, he delivered exactly what was promised: a cohesive backyard design with a professional approach.

Dream‑backyard design with a pro who truly listens…read more After a disappointing "free consult" elsewhere (they didn't listen and handed us a generic, cookie‑cutter layout), we reached out to John at Infinite Sky Landscape Design--and the difference was night and day. From the first message, John was easy to work with and extremely responsive, and the whole experience felt collaborative. What stood out most was how well he listened. John took the time to understand our vision and made sure our ideas were incorporated into the design. His three‑step process was a game changer--it clearly set expectations for each meeting and kept everything efficient and stress‑free. The final design? We absolutely love it! It reflects our style and feels unique to our space. We can't wait to make it a reality and create our dream backyard. If you want a designer who values your input and delivers something truly special, John and Infinite Sky Landscape Design are the way to go.

We hired this company for a custom fence, and while the initial build had some issues the way they…read morehandled the issue completely changed my impression. After I contacted the owner and spoke with Sharon, they took full responsibility and redid the entire fence from the ground up. The new build is exactly what we were hoping for: high-quality materials, solid craftsmanship, and a beautiful finished product that really elevates our property. Custom work doesn't always go perfectly the first time, but what matters is how a company responds--and they absolutely stood behind their work and made it right. That level of integrity and follow-through is hard to find. I would confidently recommend them based on the final result and their commitment to customer satisfaction.

BIG shout out to Sunny Builders Group!!!They are amaaaazing!!!…read more We had 40+ overgrown "hedges" that became more like small trees over the years and were intertwined with old metal fencing. I've wanted to get a new fence for so long, but I was afraid it would be too expensive since the hedges would have to be removed first. I spent 2 weeks getting quotes from various types of businesses that could get the job done... and then I found Sunny Builders Group! With many areas of expertise, they proved to be a one-stop-shop that did all the things I had received individual quotes for: Remove the hedges, grind the stumps, demo the old fence, haul it all away, install a new vinyl fence, DG pathway... and to my surprise, they could even replace my broken granite countertop ! They took care of all the behind the scenes planning and coordination, and we stayed under budget! What a blessing! My experience with them has been fantastic, starting with my very first call to Rachel, she's so helpful and put my mind at ease! The crew was on time, ahead of schedule, and worked together like a well-oiled machine, so quick and efficient! Sunny is an absolute delight to work with! Throughout the whole process, I always felt like he's had my best interest in mind and wasn't just out to make a buck. He's a fair and honest man, and is very generous in sharing discounts and money-saving tips. Even with so much to juggle, he handled it all with such grace and professionalism, and was excellent at communicating every step of the way! Sunny Builders Group exceeded my expectations...and then some!!! I'll be a customer for life and look forward to working with them again on future projects. Thank you Sunny Builders Group, I am forever grateful!!!

We specifically asked for plants that support bees, hummingbirds, and other pollinators. Weed-blocking mulch was used to replace the grass. The plants were installed with chicken wire to discourage gophers. A slab walkway was installed on a base of decomposed granite. They also installed a new vinyl gate to replace the old wooden gate. They did a fantastic job at a very reasonable price! The owner, Travis Smith, has a great eye for design. We are so very pleased with our new front yard and we would highly recommend them to anyone. (two years later) We were having some trouble with the drip irrigation, plants were starting to die off. Travis was working on our neighbor's new backyard landscape, and he noticed our problem. He came over and asked if he could help. He found the problem was some of the wiring had been disturbed by someone I had hired to maintain the front yard. Several of the irrigation lines had also been damaged. He took the time to repair everything, check that the system was working properly, and even replaced one of the plants. All of this at no charge! Fantastic!

I highly recommend Beyond Remodeling for landscape installations…read more I was a partner in a Santa Monica architectural and design firm and worked for a city Redevelopment Agency, supervising infrastructure improvements, including landscape, streets, sewers, gutters, lighting, etc. I also did work for the Los Angeles Parks and Recreation Department. By all accounts I am an expert in landscape improvements. Omri was a joy to work with and kept every promise. We had to work through an obstructive HOA, which caused unnecessary and illegal delays, but Omri stuck with us. We also encountered an unanticipated drainage issue that we resolved together. , The fence and retaining wall are not just well-constructed; they are beautiful. If you are seeking cheap, Beyond is not for you, but if you are looking for quality that will last for decades at a reasonable price, they are a good choice.

Stacey was nothing but totally professional and helpful during the entire project. She was on time for the initial interview and estimate. She clearly explained the project to us and gave us the estimate for the work. During the work, she stayed in touch and was reachable at any time we had any questions. The job was finished on time and at the agreed on price - no surprises. We are completely happy with the work that was done. We were so satisfied with the work on this project, we hired them to do an additional electrical upgrade project that needed to be done at this house. Again, the job was quickly completed on time at the agreed on price. We are completely satisfied with the work on both projects and would use them again for any additional project. UPDATE: an oopsey. I misspelled the Project Manager's name in my review. Her name is Stacey. Regardless of my spelling, she provided us with top notch service.
