    10 months later, with essentially zero maintenance

    This is a belated review - Anthony and crew helped us redo our front and backyard landscaping about 10 months ago. The experience was seamless, from the quote, plant selection, and installation. And best of all, almost a year later we still very happy with our pretty and low maintenance plants!

    Love how our dry creek swale turned out.

    We recently replaced our front lawn with drought-tolerant landscape and had a great experience with Growscapes. Anthony was our main contact and he was outstanding to work with. He was extremely responsive and always answered my questions quickly. What I appreciated most was that he really took the time to understand my vision before the design. His plant selection and layout were beautiful and creative, and the finished result looks even better than I imagined. Anthony is also very knowledgeable about the California Waterwise turf replacement rebate program, which made the rebate process much easier and more streamlined for us. Pricing was very competitive, and the quality of the materials and plants used on the project was excellent. The installation team, Chilo and Jose, were professional, hard working, and respectful of our property. They showed up on time, worked efficiently, and cleaned up at the end of each day. Chilo has expertise in various watering systems; and converted our sprinklers to drip line irrigation. Anthony also kept us well informed throughout the project so we always knew what was happening and what to expect each day. We are absolutely thrilled with the final result. Our new front landscape looks fantastic and we've already received lots of compliments from neighbors. Highly recommended Growscapes!

    Anthony with Growscapes is a phenomenal! I decided to have our front lawn be landscaped to be drought resistant and found Growscapes on Yelp. Best decision! Anthony was super communicative during the whole the process. Love the way it turned out and several neighbors have told be as such. I highly recommend them!

    We chose Growscapes and are so happy we did. Anthony was our project manager and he listened to what we wanted, made suggestions and created a new backyard. We basically gutted the whole yard and started fresh. Chilio and his crew were great to work with as well. We would highly recommend this landscape company

    Highly highly recommend Growscapes! We love our new landscaping and the process was pretty flawless from start to finish. They were professional, patient, responsive, and knowledgeable. Anthony really understood our vision from the beginning and he designed exactly what we hoped for. He was so patient with all my questions and thorough in explaining all the details. Their pricing was very reasonable and they worked with our budget. Overall, they were fantastic and it was actually a real pleasure to work with them. Thank you, Anthony!!

    Growscapes fulfilled my dream of having a clean and easy to maintain landscaped yard! Joe and his full team free'd me from "cleaning" my dirt and digging up a multitude of weeds several times a year! My first inquiry was responded to immediately and within days Joe came by to talk with us. He put us at ease right away with his positive and caring attitude . We agreed on a plan that was very reasonably priced and required minimal future maintenance since my husband and I are both over 65. Our yard and hillside turned out beautiful! The Growscapes crew were able to go from demo to laying of rock/gravel and placement of a water drip system and beautiful plants in three days! They were always on time, organized, clean and courteous! I highly recommend Growscapes, and I'm so happy I found them!

    My wife and I highly recommend Growscapes! We wanted to remove the dying grass we had in our yard and add a more drought tolerant landscape with decomposed granite, gravel, new irrigation system, and artificial turf. We had Joe come out for an initial consult on our front and backyard transformation and felt like he understood our vision and had great suggestions on how to arrange the space / what plants and materials to use. We were pleasantly surprised at the cost of the proposal and decided to go with Growscapes. The team came out to start the work and diligently worked to transform our yard over a span of 2+ weeks. They were always on time, friendly, and knowledgeable. Joe was also highly communicative throughout the process and was quick to answer any questions we had. We are very pleased with how the yard came out and look forward to enjoying the space for years to come. Thank you Growscapes!

    Backyard lawn completely renovated into rock garden with drip irrigation.

    Ask the Community - Growscapes

    After the renovation do you also supply weekly maintenance?

    We only do commercial maintenance.

    Do you provide weekly landscape maintenance services? I'm looking for someone that will maintain my back yard, no grass but need someone to trim and maintain all the plants, and replace them when necessary.

    They'll tell you no & say that they only do residential

    Do you replace existing sprinkler systems (need new pipes and sprinkler heads)?

    Absolutely. Please give us a call or request a quote and we can send one of our team members to view the project.

My wife and I have a new-build that required additional landscaping of our backyard. We eventually decided to go with California Outdoor Living after reading all their positive reviews on yelp. In addition their quote was very competitive if not the best when looking at other contractors. We already had a design in mind for JC which made the process very quick. Although there was some misunderstanding with the design and drains throughout the process, JC was always responsive with his texts and quick to make adjustments. The moment we got our design approved by our HOA, the construction happened VERY FAST. We emailed California Outdoor living on a Wednesday evening of our approval. The very next day (Thursday), JC arrived to go over the outline. I do appreciate how fast things were done, but it was almost to a fault at times. They were ready to go by the next day but my wife and I didn't feel like we had discussed the plan and execution thoroughly enough. On Friday the construction workers were already digging out our backyard. They spoke only Spanish so communication was very difficult to ensure if our plan was executed appropriately. By Saturday all of the pavers were laid out. Construction was incredibly fast but because of that some details were lost in translation. We discussed with JC that we wanted an 11x14 ft paver island. However the final dimensions was 12.5 x 12.5 feet. We also wanted all the walls of our backyard to be lined with turf. However the paver border ran too close to one of the walls, that putting turf did not make sense. They only left 1 inch between the wall and the paver (see attached image). We appreciate how fast the work was done. The overall work was great BUT not exactly what we wanted. We felt rushed with the whole construction process. However everything was done in less than a week which was incredible! In addition, once the turf was laid out JC noted that window reflections from both our neighbors and our own windows would cause damage to the turf. He informed us this can happen sometimes. Going back to rushing things and not being thorough, we wished JC took the time to look at our backyard and factor in this possibility. If we had known the reflections could damage this area we would have changed our turf design. At the end of the day they are just executing our design, but it's these minor things that left us feeling like our backyard could have been better. However we are still very thrilled with the overall speed and communication done throughout the process! Would still recommend this company. But these small critiques are definitely something to keep in mind for future clients.

The drainage tube was installed with the slope going the wrong direction, and the walls were not properly covered before the concrete was poured, leaving concrete splatter all over the side walls. The concrete also cracked less than three days after it was poured. It was poured on Monday morning, and on Wednesday the artificial turf guy was using a large plate compactor right next to the two-day-old concrete. I believe the vibration from that equipment contributed to the cracking. When I spoke with JC about the issue, he told me that concrete will crack sooner or later and that is why they do not warranty cracks. Concrete was poured directly on top of the soil, no gravel was brought first. While I understand that concrete can crack over time, I did not expect it to crack before I had even made my final payment. Despite my disappointment, I paid the remaining balance. After that, I never received any follow-up confirmation that the payment was received , or even a simple thank you.

They were very competitive on pricing as we got several quotes. Oscar was very easy to work with as we described our needs and he came up with great designs that took very little adjustments to get exactly what we had envisioned. Oscar took us to several nurseries to select plants that would compliment the project. Victor took care of the demo and construction side of the project and was he amazing! The crew shows up on time and the site is thoroughly cleaned up each day. Communication was awesome, if we had any questions about products or how things were being laid out Victor answered them right away. As the project went along if Victor thought something might look better a certain way he would ask us what we thought before proceeding. Victor's crew were very courteous and professional at all times! When the project was completed we received a plant care and maintenance list that was very detailed allowing us to take proper care of the plants. We highly recommend Caliscapes OC. You rarely see a company that is so attentive and caring about their end results in today's world! Quality craftsmanship! Oscar and Victor run a very professional business and it shows!

We did not have a concrete idea of what we wanted at first but Oscar was great with helping us plan by guiding us and asking about how we wanted to use our space. He also created documents to submit to our HOA for approval, and he was able to make changes quickly when needed. Victor and the crew were on time, efficient, and timely with the work. It was greatly appreciated that everything was washed down and cleaned by the crew at the end of each day. They were also able to make quick adjustments when our neighbor had some concerns with the hedges we wanted to plant. The scope of the work included adding a concrete pad, extending our concrete patio, planting privacy hedges with drainage and auto watering system, installing artificial grass with paver walkways, and adding pebbles along the exterior wall of our house. Since we have a soft watering system, we also had them install a separate line from the main. Overall, Caliscapes OC was professional, friendly, and accommodating. We even had one of the hedge plants not doing well. We reached out to Caliscapes OC to advise us on how to revive it, and they said they would replace it. We had a good experience and would recommend!

    I can't say enough great things about Jake Joe and his team at Echo Homes. From start to finish,…read morethe entire experience exceeded my expectations. Our project included a full transformation of our backyard, courtyard, and side yard, and the results are absolutely stunning. Jake installed two custom fire pits, beautifully laid porcelain tile, and a customized louvered patio cover. He also helped with the placement of patio pots and selecting plant material, carefully considering sunlight, plant hardiness, and overall aesthetics. Everything feels perfectly balanced and thoughtfully designed. Even though I had a professional landscape design to start with, Jake suggested several updates that elevated the entire space, giving it a more modern and upscale look. He truly has an exceptional eye for detail and is resourceful at troubleshooting. His crew, Moi and Paco, were equally impressive. They were onsite every day from 7am to sunset, Monday through Saturday, and their work ethic was unmatched. Moi, in particular, stood out. He is incredibly diligent, knowledgeable, and professional. It was clear that they approached every step with care, always "measuring twice and cutting once." They took the time to think through details and identify potential issues before making any cuts, which gave me a lot of confidence in their craftsmanship. Jake's commitment to quality really sets him apart. If something wasn't perfect in his eyes, he had his team redo it even if it was solely for aesthetics like the placement of a pot. His adjustments and recommendations made the final result even better. This wasn't only about getting the job done quickly, it was definitely about getting it done right. The end result is top-notch, and I couldn't be happier. Highly recommend Jake Joe and Echo Homes to anyone looking for high-quality, thoughtful, and beautifully executed landscaping work. (I wish I could've said this about my house remodeling contractors - no comment!)

They handled our entire project from start to finish, which included installing new pavers, turf, and an irrigation system.

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.
