Jay and his team just completed a landscaping project for me. It's the third house he's done for…read moreme in the last 25 years. The first was a deck and pond project in Seascape. I really didn't want a pond, but trusted him to make it work. It was so amazing that I was totally hooked on ponds. The second was the largest project at our home in Aptos. We had a blank canvas and Jay designed a Koi pond that surrounded two sides of our home, decks, covered walkways, a bridge, a tea house, a custom stone house and multiple patios and beautiful landscaping. The property landscaping was featured on multiple pond and garden tours. The latest project was a little farmhouse in Watsonville. It was a tiny patch of land that needed TLC. I was at a loss, but again, Jay came through. He did a fence, stone patio, drainage system, sprinkler system, a custom fountain and plantings. I posted multiple before and after photos, but I'm not sure they actually got attached to this review. At any rate...A few things to keep in mind. Creativity takes time. Be open to changes, suggestions and ideas that the professionals have. Don't be afraid to weigh in, but always listen - Jay knows what he is talking about. Be patient. Every contractor works on multiple jobs at the same time. It's the only way they can stay in business. Be aware of this going into the project. Allow plenty of time to initiate the project, and allow more time than you expect for completion. As with any construction project, there are surprises; both physical and financial. Be prepared to have a flexible timeline. That being said, Jay stuck well to our timeline. I made some changes which extended the project. There was one point when we couldn't get the materials we needed. These things create delays. All that being said, I would recommend Jay - I've used he and his team for 25 years. They show up in their Jay Welty Landscaping t-shirts and masks, are polite, cheerful about changes, and work hard, really hard. They started between 8 and 8:30 most days, took a short lunch and left at around 3 or 3:30 after sweeping, blowing and hosing down. The property was always left clean and neat. Jay presented me with a weekly bill listing man hours worked and expenses. When it was appropriate, purchases were made where I could call in a credit card number and pay directly. I can't say enough about Jay and his team. By the time they left the project, they felt like family. They are an amazing team and I wouldn't hesitate to do another project with them!

When they say "creative landscaping" in their name they're not messing around. Dreamscape was able…read moreto take our dirt hill of a backyard and turn it into something that makes me smile everyday. I met Jeremy over a year ago when he came out to assess the job and give us a bid. Among the four other bids we got, Dreamscape was in the middle cost wise. Jeremy politely followed up but we were short on cash with the holidays and asked his to hold off. Fast forward to June 2014 and I reached out to him. Most vendors wouldn't bother to return a call from someone who kept them waiting for six months but Jeremy called me right back and was very understanding about the delay. They honored the pricing they gave us earlier in the year and we kicked off the reno with a three tier retaining wall. *please note: I had to be in Texas the week of the project and Dreamscape worked totally unsupervised.* Normally this would send me into a panic but Jeremy was great about texting their progress each day. The wall was finished in four days and I came home and was thrilled with the results. Next steps: extending the deck into the hillside and planting over 70 trees and plants. Bryan came in and gave me the consult for the plants. He was great to work with and really understood the demands of the soil and hillside. Again, the planting and the deck work went smoothly and quickly. I loved the team that was assigned to us. Kirk, Chris and Jose were the best. It was fun to watch them work as they jammed out to Taylor Swift on the radio. They were always willing to answer any questions and were great to my dog. Last comment, the job was complete but were concerned about a loose railing on the deck. Jeremy came over the next day and secured it. No questions, no haggling, just an extremely high standard of excellence. As you can see, our finished result is amazing. I'm happy and I know you would be too if you use Dreamscape.
