Sprinkler system

Alejandro helped revive my lawn with a new sprinkler system and sod. He also installed a flagstone walkway nearby. He gave lots of helpful input on design and best options for fixing the area, and did it for a reasonable price. Will definitely have him back for my next project!

During the work

Alejandro and his crew did such a wonderful job. On time, on budget, and beautiful work. He really is an artist with stone work. Job: I wanted a raised flower bed in my front yard made from a river rock wall. Also wanted river rock on the edges of my garden due to the yard being on a slope and the soil eroding out onto the sidewalk and street. Cost: Of the three estimates I got for the work, Alejandro's was right in the middle. Estimate/design appointment: Alejandro immediately understood the aesthetics of what I wanted. He didn't try to talk me into something more modern looking, which is what the other companies did during their estimates. He took into account the type of house (1920's bungalow) and character of the neighborhood when discussing design. Additionally, I initially wanted a wall at the end of my yard to hold in the soil, but Alejandro told me he could do it with just large stones that match the river rock planter, and it would way less expensive and more subtle. I loved his idea and that's what we did. Work: He and his crew did it in four days. They were on time, friendly, and professional. Conclusion: I'm already planning on hiring Alejandro again to do some work in the backyard. Worth every penny.

Before - the hill was sliding down and over the retaining wall, previous owners tried to stop it with  random bricks

Droughtscape LA did a fabulous job. The yards of our 100 year old house were totally transformed…read moreinto beautiful, graceful living spaces even before all the plants were in. We couldn't be more pleased with the work from Droughtscape LA. The yard needed fencing, grading, massive debris removal, retaining walls incorporated into a California low water garden. Cody immediately got our vision and then incorporated upgrades which we hadn't thought of. His team is highly experienced and knowledgeable. We got high quality work and high quality value. Where the team was able to incorporate existing materials they did. I have already recommended them to a number of my friends. I can hardly wait to see the yard a year from now.

We contracted with Droughtscape LA and, in all, Cody and his Team were spectacular…read more The house we live in now was a flip job and the flipper did very little (correct) with the landscaping. After getting quotes from three different landscaping companies, we opted to work with Drougthscape. Clear explanation of costs (itemized phases of work), good rapport, experienced Team, respectful, and fabulous/creative design eye. Services: Demolition, removal of dead sod, removal and correct installation of irrigation, correct installation of Decomposed Granite (DG), installation gopher deterrent mesh barrier, Zero-scape the front of the house/gravel only, additional fencing installed to make a distinct garden for the guest unit. About $69,000 USD. The biggest expenses were irrigation and fencing. Bonus: Our dog fell in love with the crew. The only con: our project began in December 2025-January 2026. It took longer than estimated because of the holidays and then unavoidable rain (for the one time of year it rains in LA). These complaints have to do with timing rather than any service, interaction, or decision made my Cody or his crew.

THANK YOU! Appreciate the time, effort and incredible value they bring as a team -- every dollar was hard-earned by them and money well-spent. Miguel came to give estimate and walk through strategy, plan, timing to make sure we were aligned from the beginning -- and he made sure he and team could meet timeline I needed given some constraints on my side. He and his team are a true pleasure to partner and do business with, insightful and kind and deeply knowledgeable. I was really impressed and humbled by how much they can do in such a short time, all the more amazing given how high-quality and comprehensive their work is. I am so grateful to Miguel and his team and can't wait to work with them again, hope to work together going forward.

I hired Herencia Landscaping to build a 25' x 25' backyard basketball court for my family, which…read moreincluded the concrete pad, hoop installation, proper drainage and sloping, electrical for a game light, and relocating some existing plants. I found them on Yelp and chose them after getting four other quotes. From the beginning, they stood out for their professionalism, responsiveness, detailed proposal, and fair pricing. Ale was fantastic to work with. She was quick to respond, answered all my questions, and made what could have been a stressful project feel smooth and well organized. Once construction started, Jonathan and his team were excellent. They arrive promptly each day and cleanup well. Jonathan is knowledgeable, professional, and clearly takes pride in his work. What stood out most was his communication and transparency. He provided daily updates, either by text or in person, walking me through the progress and explaining what was coming next, which gave me a lot of confidence throughout the project. I also really appreciated his fantastic customer service and follow-through. For example, the game light I purchased arrived broken from the manufacturer, and Jonathan came back promptly after the project was finished to install the replacement once it arrived. The entire project took about a week, and the final result exceeded my expectations. The court and surrounding landscaping look amazing, drain properly, and have completely transformed our backyard. Seeing my son excited to play on it every day makes it even more worth it. I highly recommend Herencia Landscaping to anyone looking for high-quality, reliable, and professional outdoor work. I would definitely hire them again.

Herencia Landscaping recently installed some drainage around my house. The area in which they had…read moreto work in made it a challenging job, and the property was on a hill so that amount that they had to dig was significant. In short, this was no small job. What impressed me most about them was when I told them what I wanted, they gave me ideas based on their expertise. I sometimes worry that contractors will simply give me what I ask for, whether it makes the most sense or not. While I've researched the needs, I'm not a pro and I felt like they listened to the project needs and offered insight to deliver the best result. Jonathan gave me his recommendation and their bid was extremely reasonable. The team came out and got the work done in 2 days. They were sweet people and the work was outstanding. They also left the worksite clean, which seems like a given but seems like a rarity nowadays. I would absolutely hire Herencia again for future projects.

They later helped to clear out all our weeds, planted new succulents, bushes, plants, and added a fruit tree--which leveled up our yard. They also fixed some issues with our irrigation system, which was a huge plus. You can really tell Ramuldo and Eric care about what they do. They were super knowledgeable about plants, trees, and even local wildlife, which made the whole process feel really thoughtful and not just like a quick job. It did take a few visits to get everything done, but honestly, the end result was worth it. I'd trust them again for future landscaping projects

Jason visited the property to get the scope of work and then Sandro brought wood stain samples and answered all my questions. These guys are on it and I was impressed with how quickly they returned quotes and addressed my concerns. I dragged my feet on starting the job but once I committed they got the project on their calendar right away. Elmer, Leandro, Jose Hernandez and Jose Vengara, were our crew and all of them operated with professionalism and integrity. Rumaldo is the head guy and don't be surprised if he shows up from time to time to survey the job. In my opinion, that is the mark of a company that goes the extra mile. The owner shows up to the small jobs too, because they care. Also the price for the work is super competitive. I can't recommend them enough.
