It was early September when I first contacted Mike, owner of Landscape Pro Services. He explained…read morethat he was quite busy and his irrigation specialist would be unable to do my drip irrigation job for at least a couple months. But Mike's business reviews, starting some 6 years earlier, were impressive. Almost all positive, those reviews convinced me to not be discouraged. I let him know I would gladly wait. Besides, I had already met with another "highly rated" Yelp contractor and was feeling rather discouraged. That guy had given me an extremely high bid. His subsequent communications and extreme bartering impressed me to be odd, bordering on unethical and untrustworthy. I knew I had to keep looking. In spite of his schedule, Mike graciously consented to come out see what was going on with my aging drip system the next week. Two weeks later, after I thought he had forgotten me, I received an unsolicited text from Mike with a genuine apology. We met the very next day. It went well. For a full hour, we discussed all my drip system problems. He made many recommendations, but his ideas were realistic and practical. He assured me that, instead of re-doing the entire system, he could take the existing drip lines and repair, replace, and improve, as needed. This meant a significant savings to me, and most importantly, much happier plants. His price quote was far more affordable. Meanwhile, while taking a look around, he noticed that my controller (timer) was misprogrammed. He asked my permission to reset everything so it would be running more efficiently, then took the time to explain everything he did. (I was ecstatic, me being the boob who had naively messed it up in the first place.) He shared some valuable tips on plant care as well. Little things like this convinced me I would be in good hands. December 2025. It was a wait, for sure, but we finally found a day to proceed on this 1-day project. He sent his irrigation specialist, Lazaro, out to my house and Lazaro was a god-send. Very reliable. Very ethical. Very hard-working and agreeable. What a great guy to have on your team. Lazaro completed everything in one day. I decided to add to the scope of work, adding a new controller unit at the same time. Lazaro ran out, bought the piece, installed it, and gave me hands-on training before leaving. And what do you know? The final bill still came to about one 3rd of the other guy's final quote. Could not be happier. An excellent experience in every sense of the word.

Mike Jones is an absolute class…read more Coming from a poor experience with a previous contractor who we later found out wasn't even licensed, Landscape Pro Services truly came in clutch. From the level of service, to the quality of work on our backyard, to the unmatched turnaround time and value, Mike delivers on all levels. If I could give him more stars than 5, I would. I gave him a general idea of what we were looking for and he truly exceeded all expectations with it. We have a fairly small backyard that if treated a certain way, wouldn't feel spacious. Somehow, our backyard now feels more open and bigger than it actually is and all with a modern touch. Throughout the span of the project, Mike kept a simple communication line going and was always so honest. So much so, that he gave us money back because we somehow accidentally paid more than we should've. Lowkey, I think we were just more than happy to pay the guy for how great of an experience the whole thing has been. Take our money! Mike, truly, thank you for bringing your expertise to our now stunning backyard. You've made it possible for the family to start enjoying daily backyard time!

They handled everything from the heavy lifting--dirt and tree removal, leveling, and drainage--to the finishing touches like new concrete, irrigation, turf, and landscape. It was a "one-stop shop" experience for a very complex job. Special shout-out to Henry, who was a total pro throughout the process. He really went above and beyond to make sure the project was finished perfectly and that we were satisfied with every detail. It's rare to find that level of commitment and work ethic. Great experience from start to finish!

We've already received so many compliments from neighbors. Highly recommend Henry and California Custom Landscape if you're looking for quality landscaping work and a team that truly cares about the end result.

Johnny replied fairly quickly, and we were able to set up a time the following day for a visit. He came at the exact requested time, introduced himself and his colleague, and we started discussing what the project would be. While walking the yards and pointing out what needed to be done, he was very honest and straightforward with me. Majority of the cost would be labor (completely understandable), but haulaway and materials would be included, which was definitely a boon for me. He provided timelines on when he'd be able to start and when he'd be able to complete the project, plus some of the background on when it comes to proper green waste disposal (it requires going to separate facilities, unfortunately). I'm still deciding on next steps, but Johnny was professional, funny, easy-to-talk to, and give me an estimated quote before I left.

They handled our entire project from start to finish, which included installing new pavers, turf, and an irrigation system. The quality of their work is fantastic, and the finished yard looks absolutely beautiful--exactly like the design photos we had hoped for. As with any large landscaping project, there were a couple of minor issues that popped up along the way, but Jake was incredibly responsive and made sure everything was taken care of very quickly without any hassle. Overall, I am extremely happy with how the yard turned out. If you're looking for a reliable team in the Irvine area that does high-quality work and stands behind it, I highly recommend Jake and Echo Family Landscaping.

Jake and his crew completed a rather large project on our new construction home that took…read moreapproximately 10 months (pool , spa, firepit, outdoor kitchen, custom pergola, front, back and side yards, water features, landscaping, etc...etc.., but it was well worth the time and cost. We purchased a home in a new development, so we vetted many different companies to build all the features we wanted on an empty canvas (ie: dirt lot). Our budget was around $290-$360k. We got around 6 bids, which we narrowed down to 3. Out of the 3, Jake gave us the most confidence in his knowledge and eye for details. We visited some of his previous projects and were thoroughly impressed. A lot of our neighbors used competitors that were cheaper, but when we saw their completed projects, you could see a lot of corners that were cut and the shoddy quality. Some look down right terrible. The majority were unhappy with the work provided by those companies. The crews were constantly changing on the same projects (subbed out to 3rd party) and there was no post-completion support. I know that there have been lawsuits filed on some of the projects. Our home, on the otherhand, has been the highlight of our neighborhood and we have people constantly taking pictures and asking for details on Jake. Not just because of the design itself, but also because of his hardworking crew. We've been beyond happy with Jake and his team and love showing off our new outdoor space. Echo was at the top end of our budget, but the quality is A+++ and 100% worth it. He didn't cut any corners and his crew pulled 10-12 hour days, 6 days a week, for 10 months. Best thing is that Jake personally checked the quality of the work on a regular basis. If anything was off by a tiny bit, Jake redid it to make it perfect. I consider myself to be detail oriented, almost to the point of being unbearable, but I never had to worry about the work being done because of the QC by Jake. This in itself was worth it. The crew was consistently the same people and HIGHLY skilled. Some of the best work I'd seen. Ricardo was our project lead and so talented and friendly. All the team was very respectful and thoughtful. They cleaned up after every day and never blasted music or talked loudly or cursed. (Which was very important to me because my neighbor and I work from home). They were kind to my wife, kids, and neighbors as well. My parents also hired Echo to fix various issues around their yard and pool and had the same experiences we did with very proficient and highly skilled crew members that worked hard. Also, the small issues we had after completion were addressed immediately. Most contractors rarely come back after you've finished paying them, but Jake really values his clients and takes pride in making sure they're taken care of before, during, and most importantly, after the project is done. There are tons of companies out there, but nobody really does it like Echo and I HIGHLY recommend them. It's worth the investment, not just financially, but also the time and memories you will have enjoying the beautiful space and features.

I recently had the absolute pleasure of…read moreworking with Rudy and his incredible landscaping and design team to completely overhaul our backyard, and I can't say enough good things about the experience. From the very first consultation to the final walkthrough, every step was seamless, professional, and exceeded our expectations. If you're on the fence about hiring a landscaper, stop scrolling--this is the team you want. It all started when we decided it was time to turn our new build dirt lot backyard into a functional space for our family. We'd had a few consultations with other companies, but nothing clicked until we met Rudy. I've actually been following their work for a while and finally had the finances to make a call. Right away, his passion for creating personalized outdoor spaces shone through. He took the time to understand our vision--a mix of low-maintenance greenery and an illuminated elevated deck to tie it all together. What impressed me most during the planning phase was how responsive and attentive he was. I must have bombarded him with at least 20 questions about everything from lighting to drainage solutions, and he answered every single one promptly, often with photos or sketches to illustrate his ideas. He truly listened to our concerns, like our worries about watering needs and drainage, and adjusted the design on the fly without any pushback. It felt like a true partnership, not just a transaction. Once we greenlit the project, the execution was nothing short of masterful. Rudy's crew arrived on time every day, and I have to give a huge shoutout to the workers--they were the friendliest, most hospitable group I've ever had on my property. Smiling faces, polite chit-chat, and zero mess left behind. You could tell from the get-go that quality was their top priority. Whether it was precisely leveling the ground for the turf, installing the irrigation system with flawless precision, or installing electrical, everything was done correctly and to an impeccable standard. No shortcuts, no surprises--just solid, durable work that looks like it could withstand a decade of family barbecues and kids' playtime. It's not just a backyard anymore; it's our go-to spot for relaxation and entertaining. Throughout the entire process, Rudy made it a point to check in regularly, ensuring we were happy at every milestone. I can't recommend Rudy and his team enough--they're the real deal for anyone dreaming of a backyard upgrade. We're already planning about tackling the front yard. If you want pros who treat your space like their own, deliver top-tier results, and make the whole journey enjoyable, look no further. Thank you, Rudy, for turning our yard into a proper space!

Several of the design points that I discussed with Rudi were not communicated clearly to his foreman. Also, after the job was done and and the job was paid for Rudy's crew. Never returned to seal the concrete as promised. After I reached out several times, he committed to coming back the following week to get the job done.

He coordinated the fencing and patio teams to work around my busy schedule. Victor even went out of his way to help my mom with her electrical issues in her ADU next door. The project came out perfect and even more than we had hoped for. Our backyard is now a relaxing and peaceful modern garden zen, and we are constantly finding excuses to do activities outside now even in the current cold weather. The details matter and Caliscapes had accomplished creating our perfect getaway. Hosting people has been easy and fun and they are constantly loving the makeover. I would not hesitate in considering them for any outdoor projects and landscaping.

I will continue to recommend them to all my friends and families. Thank you Victor and Oscar!
