We had a major excavation job at our Mission Hills home, and in the process had to remove all of our landscaping. We hired Chris Quinn, owner of Modern Image Landscape Construction, and his professional crew to implement our design plan, including new irrigation systems, plants, turf, mulch and lighting. Chris came to the house to check on the progress every morning, and his crew worked continuously from day one. The few changes or additions that we requested were accommodated without hesitation. The job is now finished and not only are we very pleased with the results, but we received many compliments from our neighbors. Do not hesitate to hire Modern Image Landscape Construction. You won't regret it. read more

Chris and his team created a beautiful patio garden for our home in Bankers Hill. The quality of their work was superb. They were reliable. We were very hands on in the project and deviated considerably from the design that Chris was following. Chris and his team were extremely patient and flexible in the face of those changes. Chris was always easy to reach and accessible to us throughout the project. He consistently communicated to us in an upbeat and a straightforward manner. We are quite pleased with the results and recommend Modern Image Landscape without reservation. read more

Chris O'Quinn and his guys at Modern Image Landscaping completed their landscape installation with a minimum of fuss and delay. Once work started Chris' team were at my house everyday until their work was completed approximately six weeks later. Their work was thorough, clean and meticulous. No cutting corners for these guys. And best of all, the completed projected came out just as designed. We could not have been more pleased with the final result. I highly recommend Chris at Modern Image Landscaping. Well done, guys! read more

See all

We selected Modern Image after sending out bid requests to several landscape contractors. Chris came to our home with copy of the landscape design that we had provided. The design plan had been prepared by Letz Design Landscape (see my review). Chris discussed the plan with us and viewed the property (front and back). We received several final bids that were all fairly close and competitive. But we selected Chris based on prior Yelp reviews and his professional engagement. He was extremely busy and informed us that it would be likely several months to get the work started. No problem there. Chris is a very good communicator and kept us posted when his team would be able to get started. He explained the major steps involved (starting in the back , removing existing hardscape and dirt, etc) and the progress payment structure. His crew showed up on the promised date and the scheduled time (around 7:30 am). The job foreman was there on a consistent basis with periodic visits by Chris. Chris kept us abreast of any changes and made sure these were all documented. He made several useful suggestions to enhance the project which we really appreciated. We were never caught by suprise and found his entire team to be very professional. Additionally, they never left a mess and made sure things were cleaned up! The overall project looks great at the cost we agreed to (with some changes). Chris also worked closely with Letz Landscaping to ensure the plants were properly placed, We also filled in several gap areas with a few more plants. We are very happy with the new our landscaping. Looking forward to when the new plants and lawn are fully grown in. A high thumbs ups!!!! read more

Fantastic!!!!  Of all the contractors we've have on our project Chris and his team are substantially a cut above.   Chris' personal care, on-site presence, and attention to quality is what differentiates his work.  No other sub-contractor cared about the quality of my project as much as Chris.  Juan, his foreman, and the crew do a great job implementing Chris' instructions.  I was so happy with their work, I contracted additional work with them.  I am so impressed with their work that I will provide my cell number to personally describe the quality of their work.  I have more to say and can provide examples.

We can't speak highly enough about the landscaping job that Modern Image Landscape recently completed for us. Chris, the owner, is highly professional and exceptionally easy to work with. He was patient with us as we decided on the ultimate design, offering many ideas and was always accessible. The quality of his work is outstanding - we came to appreciate his knowledge and experience as the job proceeded and we feel great knowing that everything was done first class. The construction team was very considerate and the cost came in as agreed with no surprises. We are absolutely thrilled with the final product and highly recommend Modern Image Landscape.

Extremely Poor customer service! I requested a Landscape contract quote from this company to build a backyard patio. I scheduled an appointment and they sent out a rep to take measurements for the patio and he stated he would send me a quote asap. 3 weeks later and after several messages requesting a quote I'm still waiting for a response. Definitely wouldn't want to give my business to such an unreliable Company that wasted my time. read more

Overall, we had a very positive experience with Modern Image Landscape. The work included installation of a paver patio, built-in barbeque, pergola, two paver sidewalks, new porch, flagstone walkway, numerous plantings and natural sod, mulch, drainage system, irrigation system, landscape lighting, electric/gas for barbeque, electrical for hot tub. This was an extensive residential job. Our property had been neglected prior to our purchase and badly needed a complete facelift. We had a landscape designer provide us with plans (designer was Steven Letz, also recommended) and sought quotes from four landscape construction companies. Chris O'Quinn (Modern Image owner) and another company provided the most competitive quotes with Chris winning out in the end by a small margin. As with any project of this magnitude, there were several plan alterations along the way. Chris worked with us throughout and handled all of the changes professionally and promptly. The team was well-supervised and hard-working. I rarely, if ever, saw idle workers. We have had other work done on our house (artificial turf and fence installations), and this team was by far the most professional of the outdoor teams. The stone guy is amazingly proficient at laying block/installing pavers - he clearly knows what he is doing. We will likely require additional landscape work in the next couple of years, and I will not hesitate to contact Chris. read more

Modern Image Landscape exceeded my expectations! Chris and his talented, hard-working, respectful crew- Juan, Mario, and Enrique, absolutely transformed our back and side yards to create our dream space. The crew was always considerate and I was completely blown away by their efficiency. Thank you, Modern Image-you have truly renewed my faith in the construction industry. read more

Modern Image Landscape has been performing bi-weekly maintenance on my yard for the past year-plus. Their crew is awesome. Last week I asked them to cut back and entirely remove a bunch of extra shrubbery on our back hill. They did a wonderful job of ripping them all out, and it was wonderful that they were able to do this on the spot. They are always so friendly and always do great work. I cannot tell you enough how happy we are with their services. read more

Excellent experience with Modern Image. Chris and his crew worked well with us in all aspects of our water friendly, California native plant backyard transformation.

Great work by Chris and his team! We used Modern Image to completely redo our yard. New patio, new wall, new grass & irrigation, and all new plants. Chris was easy to deal with and stayed in touch throughout the project. Chris' team was at our house every day from start to finish, and the yard looks amazing. Thanks Chris! read more

Chris and his team are a true gift to any project. Trustworthy, reliable, perfectionist at work daily. We had a very complex project that required precise detail. They went over and beyond to make our project a true work of art! We could not be more pleased. Thank you Chris, Juan and all the guys! read more

Modern Image Landscape worked with our landscape architects plans beautifully. Chris the owner and his crew were both nice and easy to work with and very accommodating. I had originally interviewed 4 other landscape contraction companies that were suggested by my landscape architect. None of them followed through with their bids! I was referred to Chris by a neighbor/realtor who has used his company for many jobs. Chris answered by email promptly, gave me a bid and finished the job on time. When it comes time for maintenance we will also use his company. read more

We decided to remove all the grass from our front yard because of the drought. We obtained a landscaping plan and Chris and his team executed it quickly and to perfection. All of our communication with Chris was timely and clear and we are delighted with the quality of his work as well as the quality of the plants that he installed. Now we have Chris's team as our full time gardeners too. read more

We recently used MI Landscape to build block stucco walls and gates that would define the curb appeal of our home. We got our estimate from Chris and work began very quickly. The MI construction crew was very professional, considerate and hard working. Progress was steady and consistant. In the end .. they did an exceptional job. Our walls are now a very high profile aspect of how our home looks from the street. The quality of construction is excellent. They look great and blend with the home and landscape very well. Vendors like MI are rare these days. We can easily recommend MI to anyone considering construction work. read more
