He also said that he didn't quote me for the retaining wall and I told him I wanted him to before three. I told him to do the irrigation. He never showed up for the irrigation three weeks later he's telling to pump my brakes. I need to pump my brakes and tells me that oh by the way I owe him $500 still for the retaining wall that he forgot to do even though when I told him to do it, he says oh yeah I forgot about that and now I'm over here trying to do the irrigation and now I know why he ran off and didn't come back because he never connected the pipes and you can't even run the irrigation because all the pipes lead to nowhere. He also told me about his God experience and why I chose him is because of him being so close to God and then he does this to me now I understand why he ran off for three weeks and didn't come back to do the irrigation.

Green Planet Landscaping has earned a Five-Star rating for their installation of the artificial…read morelawn in our father's front yard. The natural grass was hard to maintain, since the sprinklers were not functioning properly, but the artificial lawn has vastly improved the curb appeal of our father's property. Without increasing estimated costs, Green Planet Landscaping surprised us with an additional amenity that actually rectified an issue raised by the local HOA. Thus, we are 110 percent satisfied with their service. Inasmuch as I live several hours away from Brentwood and Discovery Bay, I did not have the pleasure of meeting Alan in person. However, our communications were very effective and I am delighted to have completed this task as our father's Power-of-Attorney.

When moving to the city of Oakley, our home is a new construction so our backyard is all dirt and…read morewe had to submit an approval to the HOA. After living in our home for a year, it was time to redesign our backyard. I submitted a price quote request on Yelp and received a few responses to schedule a consultation. After meeting with other landscape companies, my choice was to go with Alan at Green Planet Landscape. It wasn't just about the price quote, but Alan's thoughtful ideas and recommendation made us trust him even more with the project. He would make sure our backyard would look amazing and presentable. He drew a sketch design for us to submit to the HOA. After we got an approval from the HOA for the project, Alan scheduled us within a few days. Alan first introduced me to Angel to have him do a walkthrough around the backyard. We had them install stone walls, pavers, artificial turf, and planter beds. The project lasted about 3 days and they did a fantastic job on transforming our backyard. My wife is so in love with plants and was very happy they planted her plants in the soil. Our dogs were so excited and love playing on the turf. I would highly recommend Green Planet Landscape. We finally are comfortable to contact them in the near future.

After getting multiple quotes for pavers, sod, and mulch we decided to go with H&H. Price wise their quote was the lowest of the 4 we got. But not so much lower that it led us to question quality.

We had a great, long, but great experience with Chris and his team. He was a bit more expensive but…read morewe gave him a chance to review our other top quote and he matched it! We were going for a large 19x19 outdoor bar/grill and seating area. Unfortunately, the city prevented us and since Chris is ethical, we settled on a 19x13. Some companies would just build it and not give a shit when you have to demolish it later due to city codes. I have a neighbor from hell who would love to call the police. The city made the process drag out for almost a year. No fault to his company. Once they finished, we were in love! Check out the pictures for yourself! Feel free to use our pictures as an example of what you want! He's ready!! Oh, we have a pool and his team is trained on how to avoid hitting equipment. :)

Very disappointed in this company. I purchased a home with water feature in the backyard that was…read morebuilt by them. We were looking for a possible leak and I contacted them asking if they offered any type of maintenance on their equipment since we don't know what to look for or how it works. We were told there were some valves and a shut off valve located on auto fill feature. Again, not being familiar with any of the equipment involved with said feature we weren't sure what to look for. We ended up digging up the rocks and finding that it was in fact the auto fill feature not stopping causing it to constantly drain out the front of our home. Immediately called the company and left a message and haven't even received a call back. I ended up calling another company to come help me with the feature and show me how the system works. The only advice I received from AJs was they don't offer maintenance and they recommended I call a leak detection company. For the amount of money the former homeowner paid for this backyard I'm extremely disappointed in the lack of care for their faulty water feature, the lack of compassion for helping me to understand how the system worked and the lack of response.

I was recommended to Lebec for a foundation issue after consulting with the inspector about 6 years…read moreago. On contacting them, scheduling was very straightforward. They asked for the inspection report and I provided them with it. I met Edward at the property, and described the problems to him. We walked the outside perimeter of the property. He said that to get into the crawlspace, they charged a $300 crawl fee. I was upset by this because this was never disclosed before and during scheduling the meeting. I reluctantly agreed, and Edward spent about 10 minutes or less in the crawlspace. We discussed what I was looking for in a quote. He made recommendations, including installing a french drain at the foundation on both sides of house. What followed was several attempts at collecting the $300.00 crawl fee, including an e-mail suggesting that they cannot release the quote until they received the fee. All this was happening while a check was in the mail on it's way to them. I met another contractor, and the experience was very different. He went straight into the crawlspace, gave me his initial impressions of what the cost might be, and also recommended against the french drain, mainly because he didn't see any evidence of water collecting in the crawlspace (and neither had I over the past 6 years). He said this would cost an additional $30,000+, and is not needed. After Lebec received their check, they sent me the quote, and sure enough, the french drain install was about $36,000, and their quote for the foundation work was about 30% higher than the second contractor who came out. I don't know what their project results are like so I cannot comment on that, but the hidden price for the inspection, the recommendation for work that wasn't necessary, and the 30% price difference just leaves me unable to trust them or recommending their services.

When I finally got a call back I was told they tried but it would not fill up. 6 months later a large portion of the asphalt sealer faded away down to what it looked like before sealing, I was told originally it would be 1/4 inch thick it looked like spray paint that faded away from the sun, It took about 3 months to get someone to look at it, When they came over I was told I must have spilled some chemical on it but they would fix it like he was doing me a favor. It took another 3 months for them to fix it, They resealed the area and filled the crack that they said could not be filled. Never once did they own up to any of the problems.

(7/25/23, post completion 5wks update #10+ c) below) We just…read morefinished our front/back yards makeover: ontime, on budget, and beautifully done! We enjoy our tropical-themed backyard so much now :). Thanks to G (the owner, the foreman, and the hard worker) and his crew. We moved to Brentwood 18months ago. We needed a makeover of our backyard which was flooded during rainy season and poor arrangement of plantation, as well as front yard upgrade. I RFQ'd 5 contractors, and got 4 back ontime. The owner of Pacific Landscape Services (= PLS) is Gatzemani (shortname G). His quote was right in line with another 2, but we were attracted by his overall solution of our troubled yards, and he seemed to be a smart guy. So we did our leap of faith by hiring him to finish in 8wks. Based on our past experience of contracting, ontime seems to be a dream.... but G and his crew made it. 1. Quote is reasonable, G doesn't nickel/dime with small adjustments. I do suggest to communicate clearly upfront to avoid adjustment/rework. 2. G is the worker bee himself and the most skillful one. 3. G always said "have to do it right" vs shortcutting/ easy work, and he did. 4. G is easy to work with, and manages his crew effectively 5. We were impressed by the clean-up on daily base and final closure which really stands out his services. We no longer needed to hire trash dumping guys like our prev projects. 6. If you are uncertain about something, you can ask G who gives his honest opinion but respects the owner's final decision and executes it. 7. G has a broad knowledge of sub-supplier bases+ plantation. We took his recommendation for pavers, pebbles.. 8. They specialize in hardscape/ pavers/ drainage/ irrigation. We have a sloped driveway and connection to backyard through sideyard. The leveling/grading was a big challenge for everyone, but G did it. 9. Restored our deserted pond in the back and transformed it into a beautiful creekbed with moss rocks. The sound of creek river is so soothing and enjoyable (see pictures) 10. The only thing is the SOD which is not doing well. [6wks later after completion] The lawn is 95% good, there are still 2 brown spots at front lawn Few recommendations: a). Any material on color/texture, it's better go to stores (if avail), and/or check samples vs online/brochure. It is very different, esp with big areas and how they age overtime. b). Consult G and make your own final call. The creekbed was a recommendaiton from G, a master piece vs a pond with mosquitoes. We went with our desire of light pebbles vs dark lava stones (an idea from G), and we love our decision. c). Get involved and check the job periodically. We did/do find small flaws (not major) due to inconsistent labor quality during the job, eg. trash was not removed before installing gopher wire, irrigation lines popped after 4wks... G re-did the gopher wire the next day after being made aware, and we fixed the dripper line ourselves. Overall, a very postitive experience!! I highly recommend Pacific Landscape Services.
