Throughout…read morethe design process, his team worked with us closely to understand our design needs, taking feedback and modifying where needed. He stuck to his timeline, despite some minor material delays, and always went above and beyond to check in on how we were feeling about the progress. What we most appreciated was how Dave and his team understood that our yard would be completed over a few phases and helped us to prioritize the work in a way that would not interfere with future plans. His team of workers left our yard neat and tidy each day and went the extra mile to ensure there was minimal disruption to us and our neighbors. Highly recommend for any landscaping needs.

Highly recommend.

I purchased a house with extremely neglected landscaping. A friend recommended Tierra Madre to me…read moreand I could not be happier with the choice I made to go with them! At every step of the way, Hallie was communicative, easy to work with, and invested in the project. She helped bring my half-formed "lush fairy cottage, but low-maintenance, oh yeah and I want native plants" vision into reality with the perfect plant recommendations and a beautiful design. The process felt like a great collaboration. It was clear she really wanted to get it right for me and wanted my input along the way, and that she has the expertise to know which plants work together well and how to make it all happen. Armando and crew were also fabulous to work with. I was impressed at their efficiency in demoing the yard (we needed to remove the tree as well as the top few inches of soil because there were so many weeds) and the artistry with which they laid out the flag stone path. It was a huge amount of work and they executed quickly and skillfully. We had Hallie back for some winter pruning recently and were thrilled with that too. It's fun to experience the cycles if life in the yard and know we have a pro we can call on when we need her. :) I now have the lovely, low-maintenance yard I dreamed of and I'm proud to pull into my driveway every day!

Tierra Madre operates on an entirely different level than any of the other landscape services I…read morehave worked with. Hallie listens, she cares, she is knowledgable and has such an artistic eye. She and Armando work together seamlessly, price fairly and are a joy to work with. They also treat their employees with kindness and take care to be environmentally friendly -- very important! I wanted to convert my grass front lawn into a grass-free, bird-friendly, drought-tolerant garden, but I don't know much about plants. Hallie listened carefully, taking notes as we walked the neighborhood so I could point out species that I like and she could educate me on what would work to my specifications. Her breadth of knowledge and gentle manner put me at ease immediately. Armando directed the work and planned the irrigation, etc., with Hallie selecting plants and placement. They both communicated with me throughout, and made sure everything was as I wished. The project was completed quickly and looks even better than I had dreamed. What a great experience with truly wonderful people.

Terra Bella Landscaping completed a backyard landscaping project for us this spring. We did a lot…read moreof research and received several quotes before deciding to work with Nikos, and are very happy with the quality and scope of the work that was done. Our project entailed: - Beautiful new stone paver patio - Realistic, safe, and low maintenance artificial turf - Functional grading, irrigation and drainage - New sprinkler system - Tasteful, high quality, and thoughtful use of plants and ground cover - A winding 'dry creek' made of stones, which Nikos proposed and which we love - Build out of a play structure for our boys One thing that is particularly unique with Terra Bella, at least compared to a few other companies we received bids from, is that Nikos used computer aided design to take our concepts, ideas, and favorite photos from Houzz and Google Searches to develop a landscape plan for our backyard. This was extremely helpful, and helped us visualize the final product and provide feedback and changes before a shovel (or tractor) ever hit the soil. Nikos and his team's expertise, integrity, creativity, skill, and execution were all top-notch, and we are very pleased with our new backyard.

Since we wanted to spend more time in the space and wanted it to be beautiful but uncluttered, we knew we needed help. We were referred to Kim and it was the perfect referral! She took our limited space and mapped out a plan that was perfect and incorporated everything we needed and wanted. Her process is pretty amazing; she spent a few hours with us in the backyard, asking questions and taking notes. When we were unsure about something, she'd make suggestions and help us reach a decision. She contacted us when she got to her office and we had a Zoom meeting where we reviewed a lot of details of the plan. That was a few hour process and we were exhausted when we got done but that same day we received from her a complete plan incorporating all the hardscape, landscaping, and plants, as well as a materials list. We were amazed! Her pricing is very reasonable and we felt we got much more value than what she charged. What's more, some of our design needed to change over the next few months as we were implementing the plan and Kim quickly responded to all of our questions and challenges with great suggestions. Kim is definitely someone we will recommend without hesitation to anyone looking for interesting, beautiful landscape design quickly and at a reasonable price.

They are an absolute pleasure to work with - very knowledgeable, very creative, conscientious about quality and budget, and friendly to be around. We collected a hodge podge of photos of gardens and landscaping that we liked. and had a couple of conversations with Larry. From that, he was able to create a cohesive design that perfectly fit our home, our needs, and our taste. We feel like we live in a resort now. Every time, I drive up to my home or go in my backyard, I have to pinch myself to believe that it is my house! Shoreline's design included redoing our pool, hardscape, softscape, building a waterfall that flows in three directions, an outdoor fire and seating, vegetable beds, drought tolerant planting, significant reduction of lawn, lighting, new driveway, and new front entrance. We hired a pool company to handle the pool (new piping, equipment, gas pipe, tiling, coping, and pebbletech finish.) Shoreline made sure that the pool company's work was seamless with the work they were doing. In fact there was an issue with the waterfall which was working off the control panel installed by the pool company. Shoreline did not want us to contact the pool company until they had redone all of their work (at their cost) to make sure the issue was not theirs (the issue was in the set-up of the control panel and should have been handled by the pool company.) Other than an electrician that we hired, all other work was done by Shoreline or the hardscape team that they often work with. Everything was supervised by Shoreline which made it quite easy for us. Everyone who comes in to our yard is impressed with the design and quality of work. Two people have asked us about holding events here! Even though the work was completed about two months ago, Shoreline Landscape comes by regularly to check out how things look, replace any plants that didn't make it, and make minor adjustments.Just today, they came by to cover our plants that need protection from the frost that is expected tonight. You can't ask for better service than that!

The BBQ, fountain and patio turned out absolutely stunning all in full range Blue Stone. All our friends and neighbors compliment us on how lovely our yard is now.

Initially we were just…read moregoing to have her provide a detailed design and we would plant everything but decided a professional would do a much better job installing the plants based on the specs. I felt the design fee was reasonable ($500) especially if you can plant the items yourself. We asked for a tropical landscape that would provide privacy to compliment our pool and it turned out beautiful. The bright greens she chose go so well with our brick planter boxes that we had installed years ago and against the bright blue pool water. The larger palms were a little out of our budget so we decided to go with a smaller gallon tree hoping they'll grow quickly to give us that privacy. Roxanne is easy to work with and her installers were hardworking, quick, professional and clean! I've never seen a contractor clean up their mess so well, even before the project was completed. Can't wait to update with pics once the plants have filled out.
