Isreal and the team are the absolute best landscapers you will ever find! We had a rough experience with a previous contractor about a year ago. Landscaping scammers all over the place. It was hard to find someone I could trust after that. Isreal went above and beyond to get the job done right. He had many helpful suggestions and ideas and every detail was executed perfectly. We had a crack in our planters and his guys jumped in to fix that too, when other landscapers didn't even notice it while quoting the job. He took the time to explain everything to me. I feel confident now being able to adjust the irrigation myself during the different seasons. I can't even explain how impressed and grateful I am for these guys. They are professional, their work is exquisite and they are such a sweet and helpful group of guys. read more

10s, 10s, 10s across the board! Israel and his team from Corona did a fabulous job on our front and back yards. They transformed the backyard from a jungle of gnarled and spiky invasive plants into a beautiful green paradise, and the front yard into a drought resistant garden, all equipped with CA Native plants of our choosing. Israel was quick to respond from the very beginning, worked with our budget, was very thorough while working quickly. They cleared out the treacherous backyard, planted a wide range of plants and installed gravel, stepping stones, and a sprinkler system. I would completely trust Corona to do everything on their own in terms of plant selection and design, but we wanted specific plants and so we got to work closely with Israel on the selection. We went to a nursery with Israel, who educated us a lot on the plants, made helpful suggestions, and listened to what we wanted, but also letting us know when something might not work. Israel came back to check on the garden several times to make sure we were happy, too! Last thing to mention: Israel is very respectful to his team, vendors at the nursery, and was very respectful and kind to my family and me, which we all appreciated! I would definitely hire Corona Artscaping again, and plan to for my place of work! read more

Thanks to Corona Artscaping, my garden looks so good that people actually stop and take selfies in front of my house. Israel originally transformed my dead grass into the native cactus/succulent garden of my dreams back in 2016. This time I needed a comprehensive refresh - including trimming, editing, weeding, refreshing pathways with new rocks/stones, fence-painting, purchasing/planting new plants for all my pots - the works! Israel views each job as an art project, and he was responsive to my design ideas, going to great lengths to understand my vision and accommodate my color and plant preferences. Plus, his crew works cleanly and quickly. Toward the end of the project, my notes on fine-tuning were met with enthusiasm. Israel even recommended a weekly gardener who is skilled in properly maintaining all the work he'd done. read more

Corona Artscape recently just refreshed my front and back yards with a new lawn and new plants. Until then, I had procrastinated contacting a landscaper because it was such a small job. I did call one company I found on Yelp, but it never returned my call. Then, one day, I received a card placed on my front door from Corona Artscape. I usually don't respond to these solicitations, but his time I did. The owner, Israel, responded quickly and sent me an estimate promptly. I think I responded to his professional and affable manner. I don't know why, but I trusted him immediately. He and his workers did a great job, and I am very happy. I have already recommended him to some neighbors. I am looking forward to having him redo a very small patio/deck. read more

I was very pleased with the great service, timeliness, and how quickly Israel and his team did the repair.

After getting a couple estimates from other companies we decided to go with Israel and we are so glad we did. The other companies (including one very large company with tons of reviews) wanting to give us less, charge us more and made sure to let us know that there were no guarantees. Israel, on the other hand, was very easy to work with, was great with our budget, and even including things we didn't think we could afford like an irrigation system. Israel is a very kind, great guy and you can tell he really cares about his projects. He really listened to us and wanted to make our vision come true while still offering smart suggestions and his expertise. We really didn't want grass as a ground cover and he helped us find 2 grass alternatives that we love. He also gave us our kumquat tree and passion fruit vines we wanted and a whole bunch of other native, drought resistant plants that look and smell great. He even took us to a nursery where we got to pick the plants we wanted which was super educational and fun. The result is a front and back yard of our dreams that just keeps getting better. Israel has a great aesthetic and truly is an artist. Even the stepping stones he custom cut for us are perfect. Also, he has been great at keeping up with with us and any adjustments we needed. I really got the sense that the other, more expensive companies were gonna be done with us when the finished but not Israel. oh and he and his crew worked so fast to get everything done. I was almost disappointing when he finished cause it was such a fun experience. Can't recommend higher! read more

Israel Corona did an amazing job improving our backyard. He installed a new privacy fence according to our design, rebuilt a retaining wall with wonderful artistic touches, redid irrigation, and more. He even helped refinish some previous with that was done poorly, bringing the overall look up to his new wall. He was responsive, very communicative about the design of elements, all at a fair price. I can't recommend enough, and will be hiring him for more work in the future. read more

I'm very glad that we hired Israel and his team to work on our patio remodel. Our patio was paved with tiles and cements beneath. As the trees grow over time, the tree roots came towards the house and cracked the ground and tiles, so we have to remove everything and redo the ground paving. I reached out to many landscaping companies but didn't get instant pricing mainly due to the small size of our patio. Israel and his guys came the very next day after I reached out, and provided us a reasonable price range with a few options of pavers that would fit right into our patio. They moved really fast and got everything done step by step within a few days. I'm very content with the finish look! Israel and his team not only just delivered new pavers looking neat and clean but also fixed the unlevel issue that might cause drainage problem in the future. I'd recommend them to anyone with similar needs of renovating patios or yard! read more

Israel did a fantastic job refreshing the front of my house. I wanted color and California drought resistant plants and that's exactly what I got. His follow through was excellent. He came by several times after work was fine to check on plants and make minor fixes. I would highly recommend Corona Artscaping read more

Israel and his crew were excellent. I decided to go drought tolerant and hired Israel from his yelp reviews. He was always on time and his crew and him were true professionals. He demoed the old landscaping which was a lot of work, removed three 10 yard dumpsters full of dirt, grass and plants and transformed my yard into a drought tolerant landscape. He installed a drip system and although the plants you see in the pics are not mature they will grow in large and cover the front with beautiful colors. He planted close to 200 plants and not one has died which is amazing to me. He amended the soil, put weed barrier and mulch to cover. I am so impressed with his work and his crew that i cannot recommend him more. His prices are great for the amount of work that he did and the job took 1 week from start to finish. Really great job, thanks Israel. read more

The owner, Israel is wonderful to work with! He has great communication and shows up when he says he will. His crew is courteous and cleans up everything spic and span. Israel also stays at the job to supervise and make sure everything is going good, which is really rare these days. Israel and the crew also listen to your suggestions or if you want something done a certain way - they don't blow you off. They appreciate the attention to detail. He and his team put in a beautiful decomposed granite landscape in my backyard with huge rocks and it looks amazing! Also, very affordable pricing compared to any other landscaper I've ever worked with. read more

Israel did an excellent job on my project. I picked up one of his cards he leaves places and called, and we started to have a conversation. I can barely believe we accomplished so much so fast. He communicated very well with me throughout, and together we handled some adjustments to our plan. It worked out very well and at good value. Thumbs up read more

Israel and his guys are great!! We are still in the middle of the project but the amount they accomplished in just the first day is impressive. They all worked extremely hard, efficiently, and cleanly. Israel is great to talk with and discuss any specifics that might arise with confidence and a positive attitude. We are so much further along than I thought and we still have another day to go. But I expect we will be equally impressed. After they left when we were looking at the work, our neighbor came out to comment and say how hard and quick the guys worked. He was amazed. He asked who did it and I pointed to the sign proudly and said call Israel and his team from Corona Artscaping. read more

Great services, provided a reclaimed oak bartop and Isreal did a got job installing it!

If you are looking for a knowledgeable resource for landscaping, concrete work and irrigation, then Israel Corona of Corona Artscaping is your one-stop resource. We first worked with Israel back around 2008 when he completely re-landscaped our front and back yards. More than 12 years later, it still looks great! This past Spring we decided to re-do our outdoor barbeque station and Israel and his team did a terrific job on the masonry work and creating an amazing outdoor cooking area. Israel is a great person, takes pride in his work and is a man of integrity. He is not just a landscaper he is an ARTscaper! His prices are fair and he gets the job done quickly. I have the highest regard for his work. Israel at Corona Artscaping is your guy! read more

Really enjoyed working with Israel and his crew, they worked hard and did a great job. He is really easy to work with and has guys that can do it all. We are very pleased with the results. read more

FANTASTIC landscaping of my front yard. Israel and company completely transformed the space into a beautiful drought-tolerant, self-watering garden!!He had great ideas for how to use the space, took the time to explore options and show us the different plants we could use. He turned an unused fountain into a gorgeous succulent garden space! Everything was done efficiently and right on time and they have come back to check how thing are going. Totally happy with the work! read more

Israel and his team did a fantastic job on our recent backyard makeover -- installing an absolutely gorgeous flagstone patio with surrounding trees, plants, turf, as well as a new sprinkler and drip system. It's a beautiful, comfortable oasis that we are absolutely thrilled to have. The final product was even better than we had imagined. He expanded the upper tier of our backyard (we live on a hill) beyond where it had previously been, opening up an entirely new area of the backyard. We have worked with him throughout the last three years on more minor projects at our previous home and were blown away by his performance on this more major renovation at our new place. He is very easy to work with -- responsive and low-key. For each project, small or large, he always returns periodically to check in on how the plants are growing and how we're enjoying them. We much preferred him over more corporate-type landscapers we've met, as he seems less interested in the profit and more interested in the project. Thanks Israel for another job well done! We'll be calling on your expertise once more for the bottom tier of our backyard! So, if you're looking for a dependable, talented, committed landscaper, look no further! Highly recommend. read more

Israel and his team did a great job with our yard! His quote was very reasonable for the job and I feel like he delivered terrific value. Everything was done on time and handled with the utmost professionalism. He even went above and beyond and cleared a bunch of junk out from the side of our house, even though this work was not included in the original quote. The yard looks beautiful and I won't hesitate to call Israel again the next time I have a landscaping project. Thanks! read more

Israel and his guys are great. He has a good design sense, and his installation was flawless. He's great with communication, he shows up when he says he will, and his prices are fair. Great choices in plants, he really knows his stuff. And as a bonus, he took extra time to find me a Meyer Lemon tree. I can't thank him enough. read more

I cannot recommend this company enough! Israel showed up at my house the day after our phone call, was friendly, professional and gave me an awesome quote! Within one week, my yard had been demoed, flagstone was cemented in (done beautifully and thoughtfully), two garden boxes were built, gorgeous plants and trees were planted, drip system and lights were installed throughout the yard. We couldn't believe how fast it all came together! We have so many more projects for this company to do for us. Thank you so much Israel. You and your crew are total gems! read more

I've used Israel a number of times and have been happy each time. He repaired stone steps to blend into my yard, built and planted a tiered garden and a raised planting bed both with sprinkler systems and accent lighting, added pavers to widen my driveway and sodded my lawn. When I needed a special oversized container for a potted tree, he built one. He does it all. And if something needs a tweak afterward, he doesn't disappear, he comes right away to do it. read more

Let me start by saying that I only had a consultation with Corona Artscaping. I called based on the fantastic reviews I read. I left a voicemail this morning and they called back within the hour or two. I spoke to Cody who was very nice. He was able to set me up with an appointment for quote the same day because I happened to call on the day the were driving around doing all their estimates. They actually just left my house. They came and looked at the area I wanted landscaped - my parkway, which is overgrown in Devil's grass, and hopefully to be replaced with decomposed granite. Israel quoted me 2k for the project which they said would take two days. I told him upfront that his estimate was out of my budget and the other quotes I received from landscapers were in the $500-600 range. He got pretty defensive and mentioned that that's how much it cost to put gas in his truck and that I should totally hire the "Home Depot" guys. When I said that they were other landscapers that gave me that quote he just got into his car with Cody and as he was closing the door said that amount is also how much the materials costs. No formal good bye really. I don't like to go out of my way to leave low reviews, but Israel's behavior was really unprofessional and I don't believe that's a great way to advocate quality workmanship. I imagine other people on yelp are looking for people who will do the job right (he may be able to) and offer reasonable and competitive prices (he did not for me) as well as being treated respectfully. Landscape projects can be arduous and you want to find someone that you'll be able to work well with over the course of that project. Though this job wasn't the right fit for us to work together, Israel was rude and dismissive to the point where it was clear he did not even consider I could be a future client, and so I too will not be considering Corona Artscaping as a possible contractor in the future. read more

Israel (the owner) is my go-to landscaping resource. He has a little bit of a casual approach, but that works for me. I gave him 5 stars because his prices are very fair and he's definitely on top of his game. As a busy professional, its important to me is that I can reach him, he shows up on time, he actually listens to what I want and he works with my schedule. He has great ideas, moves fast on his projects, and seems like he can literally do anything. I've used him twice so far, and he's taken on a myriad of tasks - laying a new concrete & brick driveway, building a walkway in the yard area with re-purposed concrete from the old driveway, installing an automatic sprinkler system, weed guard and decomposed granite ground cover, designing landscape plans & shopping for plants with me and of course, planting. Both times he came in with the best rate, quickest turn-around, and best service. He's honest and fair, and I'll definitely call him again for any future landscaping projects. read more

I have gone with Israel several times in the past few years for a number of landscaping projects, and have been very pleased with the service. The yardwork looks fantastic, they are fast, fairly priced, and very gracious. Most recently, my sprinkler control system went a little haywire, and I needed Israel to correct the issue, as some of the plants & grass were suffering. He came the same day, and for an extremely low price, not only did he reset the system, he showed me exactly how to reprogram it for the four separate valves on the system, and he repaired all the sprinkler heads, and even added another head just to be sure the driest part of the lawn was getting water. All in all, Corona Artscaping is great, and I will continue to go to Israel for all my future landscaping needs. read more

I'd say steer clear... I'm a thick skinned person but wow! a great way to get business is to be nice to the customer... I asked them for a quote for a metal and concrete retaining wall and the owner and his metal guy came over that afternoon. The owner was saying how it was going to be and I asked one question based on a little research I did on the internet of the style I liked and the guy was so rude with his answer that I stopped them and got them to leave. The owner needs to learn some major lessons in general manners... and I don't even care about manners that much haha - I'm an Australian bloke! read more

Highly recommended! Israel and his crew completely transformed my property! He has an artistic touch that made the project exciting and unique. Everyone who comes to my house comments on the landscaping! So happy I chose this company! read more

Israel and his crew exceeded any and all expectations that I had after reading all the glowing Yelp reviews! I hired him to redo my ineffective sprinklers, fix backyard lighting issues and save a rotting wooden arbor that was deteriorating. He assured me that he could do ALL those things, but I never expected the level of care and attitude he put into each detail. He arrived on time, gave a reasonable bid and throughout the job (which was done in blistering heat.....poor guys) was caring, conscientious and a joy to work with. Honestly one of the best experiences I have had hiring someone to work on any area of my house. read more

Thank you to Israel Corona and his team who did a really nice job planting on our hillside. They did a very good job cleaning the hillside and then planting on some barren area. They also installed a drip system to ensure each plant gets watered and also fixed sprinklers that had broken down. He also discussed information about how to take care of the hillside and also was very cordial and patient on describing what had to be done. For what was done, I feel the price was reasonable and so far I'm happy with what they did. Also, he and his team were punctual, they did a very fine job on the hillside. Thanks to Israel and his Team for the job. We appreciate it. Jim read more

I have done five big jobs with Israel. He is a very proud man. We work together to design on the fly. All of the jobs have come out beautiful. Israel and his crew show up exactly when they say. Israel has many connections with suppliers and contractors to get things done. He is also a rock star! No amount of praise is too much for him. read more

We used Walter Torres of Corona Artscaping for plant removal, replanting, and construction of a 100 foot wood fence on our property. We were extremely pleased with Walter's professionalism, the quality of his staff, and thoroughness before, during, and after completion of the project. Walter was prompt, patient, and creative. We will not hesitate to use Walter on other projects and would recommend him to anyone who is looking for quality design, planning, and execution, complete with integrity and promptness. Steve and Kathleen G. read more

Israel and his team helped me out when I was in a bind. Winter rains had badly eroded a decomposed granite walkway and I needed to get it repaired before tenants moved in. After I had wasted five weeks working with another company that never showed up (despite setting three separate dates to do so) I turned to Corona Artscaping in desperation. Israel came out to evaluate the job the same day I contacted him, had his guys out two days later and they got the entire thing done in one long day. Israel followed up a few days later to make sure everything was good and, when I mentioned that an irrigation line had been nicked, had his guys out the next morning to fix it. The end result is even better than the original was. Professional, fast and thorough - I'll definitely call Corona again the next time I need landscaping work done. read more

On time, straight forward, and knows his stuff! It seems like a lot to ask if you're on the hunt for a landscaping company like my husband and i were. A lot of people wanted a fee just to come see our teeny tiny backyard, others just couldn't be bothered with our budget. But after finding Israel on Yelp, he came by to check it out and a few days later, his crew was digging up dirt. We hired him to install french drains in our backyard and create a finished space that we could enjoy. The guys busted their asses to get it done within the short time Israel had promised us. And the results are beautiful! Israel will be our go-to man from now on. read more

Israel helped resolve an emergency water situation in my backyard by being reachable on a holiday and coming to fix it first thing in the morning. He's reliable, communicative, and does a great job all around. Highly recommended! read more

Five plus stars for Corona Artscaping. I met Walter at a job site. He had put in a paving stone driveway, built a beautiful deck with lighting, a set in jacuzzi, and landscaped the yard. It looked great so I asked him to come give me a bid to replace my fence. He gave me a great price quote and told me how long it would take. He and Manuel showed up on time everyday and did a beautiful job on schedule. I had people driving by stop to ask for their information. They are now over at a friend's house doing landscaping and fencing for them. They are very happy too! Walter is not only very talented, experienced and efficient, he's super nice too! read more

I wanted a little succulent garden for my small outdoor space, wasn't sure what much we could do. I came across this company and noticed that they had some speciality in drought resistant landscaping. My garden looks amazing, the owner was prompt and friendly, and was very fair with pricing! I only now wish I had more space for a bigger more beautiful garden! Thank you couldn't recommend them more! read more

There is something off with this guy, which I suspected after reading other reviews. Everything started well. Israel came right out and gave me a bid on the spot, which I accepted. He sent me the bid on June 19. We didn't schedule a date to start bc I had to get someone to move a hose bib first. I then had unexpected work travel, and then a death in the family which landed me in Europe. 4 weeks after sending the bid, Israel emailed to see if I was still interested (I was in Europe). I said YES, definitely and would schedule when I returned in 2 weeks. He responded by saying the bid was no longer available, and increased the price 35%. Certainly no costs had increased for him. Very short sighted. I have 4 neighbors who have projects, and were waiting to see how mine went and would have used him. Really dumb. So, instead of doing my job this week, he gets this review. read more

We can't say enough about Israel and his team at Corona Artscaping. With speed, precision, and creativity, they addressed all of our needs. These ranged from issues with our sprinklers to tree trimming to sod laying to drought-tolerant landscaping. Most importantly, though, Israel was always sure to listen and to follow through in the weeks after to make sure everything was growing as it should. My family will continue to use Corona Artscaping and will recommend them as much as possible in the future. Thank you Israel! read more

I hired Israel to do my sprinkler system. I enjoyed working with him at the time. The system seems to work well. Within a year, one of the pipes burst and other parts of my sprinkler system were very low pressure. My garden began to suffer. I have been calling Israel and leaving text messages for literally years now asking him to come by and see what can be done. He's ignoring me. My partner called and texted and received a response very shortly after sending asking where the job was. When he responded with out street, Israel stopped responding. It's disappointing bc I'm not asking for my money back or for free work, I was hoping that the person who installed the system might have a better idea about how and where to fix the issue. I also enjoyed working with him the first time. This behavior is incredibly rude and suspicious. I'm sorry to leave him a negative review, but this isn't professional in any way. I wish I had worked with someone else. read more

At our house in Racho Park (WLA) Israel did a great job converting our front lawn to drought tolerant gravel with succulent planting to comply with Los Angeles turf rebate program. He was efficienct and great to work with. I love his attitude and positive energy. Thanks Israel! read more
