I am so thankful for the entire team: Ryan, Anthony, Luis, Steve, Obemar, and Santiago--they were all amazing! Ryan had great ideas and worked with me to bring our vision to life while staying closer to our budget. He was always quick to respond and supported me even when I needed to make changes along the way. Anthony was always available to answer my questions and great at troubleshooting in a timely manner--even coming by after the project was completed to help with an issue in our patio caused by a different company. He also returned again to help adjust the irrigation schedule, which I truly appreciated! Luis is the kind of person you want on your project every day--kind (the nicest person), hardworking, and incredibly detail-oriented. Thanks to him, my fence turned out beautifully. I'm also grateful for Steve, who helped me visualize everything on paper so I could feel at ease before we started. His plant choices and placement were spot-on, and I really appreciated the extra effort he put in! Obemar and Santiago worked tirelessly under the hot sun, and thanks to their dedication, the project was completed on time. They were so kind as well--we even received a bag full of lemons one day! This review is a little long, but they all deserve a shoutout. I honestly feel like I got more than I was expecting, and I couldn't be happier with the results.

After searching for a contractor that was reliable and reasonably priced, we came across Cal South…read more Mike and his team built our retaining wall exactly how we envisioned it back in 2024. We then hired them to completely demo and remodel our front and back yard a year later. We provided the plan and Mike added some ideas through his experience to make our vision come to life.

Work completed by CalSouth: - complete demo - retaining wall - all form work and concrete pours - dg, rock, flagstone, sod, and mulch install - installed post for sail shades - planted plants we provided - irrigation for our lawn and raised beds We would recommend CalSouth to anyone that has landscaping needs!

Travis did an excellent job on my yard!

He did extra things for me like repairs from a previous companies bad job. He has always been available after to come check on things and fix any issues.

I was very happy with the results and it's been awesome watching everything growing in. I'll attach some current pictures. I would highly recommend Travis to anyone looking for a yard remodel.

We interviewed three companies and ultimately chose Villanuevas Landscape for two main reasons. First, the owner, Andres, personally came to our home to assess the scope of the project and address our questions about adding gopher wire under the sod to mitigate the gopher issue. Second, his pricing was very reasonable compared to the other estimates we received. The entire project was completed in just two days. Andres actively managed the project from start to finish, and his crew worked efficiently while paying close attention to detail. They were respectful of our property throughout the process and made sure the work area was clean at the end of each day. We couldn't be happier with the results and highly recommend Villanuevas Landscape to anyone looking for quality landscaping work. We'll definitely be using them again for future projects!

We had worked with two other landscape designers before finding Earth Element Designs, but the…read moreothers just couldn't seem to find designs that worked for us. Jack came over to look at our (then) all-dirt side yard, and after talking to us for about 5 minutes, he picked up a stick and started tracing lines in the dirt and throwing out ideas. We knew immediately that he was the right guy. Twenty minutes later, we had a pretty good initial design roughed out. It looked great when completed, and has become more beautiful as the plants have grown in. After that success, we asked Jack to redesign our front yard, which is now gorgeous: we love the design, and we have gotten many compliments from neighbors and guests. Jack has a special gift for visualizing a cohesive design, taking into account the surroundings, dominant features, viewpoints, etc., and then placing structures, trees, shrubs, ground cover, lighting, etc. , and putting it together so everything "works". He asked us what we wanted (low-water, use some existing plants, living areas, seating, cost concerns, etc.) , and came up with a detailed plan, including suggested plants and lighting, that he went over with us. He suggested a nice variety of interesting, low-water flowering plants and succulents. In some cases he was able to use cuttings from our existing plants, which helped to tie the yard together as well as to control costs. He was never bothered when we had questions about things, or with changes; working with Jack was an enjoyable and collaborative process. He is extremely knowledgeable about horticulture, landscape construction and maintenance, of course, but his creativity and attention to detail are what make him really special. We also liked that he came by during construction to check up and make little tweaks to "fine-tune" the project. We are really glad to have discovered Earth Element Designs.

I had no idea what the process was like, what timeframes would be, and what costs came in at. John Kensla was key in alleviating all of our concerns. He was thorough, patient with our questions, and very responsive. We ended up asking John to re-design our front and backyards. He provided multiple layouts tailored to our specific requests, and took the time to talk us through the designs and compile our feedback. Additionally, he provided estimates as to what should be expected for costs of materials/labor. Timeframe and budget were our biggest concerns, so John did a great job of tailoring the design with those considerations in mind. After finalizing design, John provided a list of recommended landscapers to execute the design and recommended that we find a few of our own to ensure all quotes were reasonable. Throughout the remodeling, John would come by to ensure the plan was being executed to our specifications. Overall, I cannot say enough good things about working with John. He was transparent throughout the entire process, dependable in developing/executing our vision, and a pleasure to work with. He has my highest recommendation for any landscaping design needs.

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.

Powerhouse wasn't the first company we called, nor were they the cheapest -- but we got an immediate sense from the owner Jack when he did the initial walkthrough and bid that we would be in good hands if we went with them to replace both the driveway and garage flooring. I think it is the up-front and transparent manner in which Jack approaches his business. He let us know up front all potential pitfalls, gave us a wealth of information about types of concrete, and even told us up-front that our original choice of Pavers had the potential to cost us more in the long run. Well-informed, we decided to go with stamped concrete with rebar, and within a week the jackhammers were knocking all the old stuff out. His workers were friendly, efficient and finished in a week. We are extremely happy with the end result, the customer service rendered, and value we received for the product. Our neighbors can't stop raving about the end result, and we are incredibly happy as well!
