I highly recommend Rafael's Landscape. I am extremely satisfied with the entire experience from start to finish. Rafael was excellent with communication, very professional, knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and clearly experienced in what he does. He took the time to explain the work, answer questions, and make sure everything was done correctly. His crew was just as impressive. Everyone arrived in company shirts, they brought the proper equipment for the job, and they even provided their own portable restroom. The entire operation felt organized, efficient, and professional. You could tell this was a legitimate business that takes pride in its work and in how it presents itself at a customer's home. The quality of the landscaping and hardscape work exceeded my expectations, and the project moved along efficiently without sacrificing attention to detail. I'm very happy with the finished result and would absolutely use Rafael's Landscape again. Highly recommended. read more

I used them a while back to fix my sprinkler valve wires. The process was fast and he fixed the issue in less than an hour. The pricing was good and I would use them again if I decide to stay with natural grass. read more

Have to post even though I decided to hire a different contractor for our project. Rafael came out took measurements asked me follow up questions and understood exactly what we envisioned. I have no doubt his crew would have done a great job. Pricing was competitive just not a match for the budget we had. read more

Very professional, answered all our questions, accommodating, and did the job really fast. Would highly recommend. We are extremely satisfied we went with Rafael for our turf installation. Looks greats read more

Great work on driveway and backyard curbing. Fair prices, but end of day communication could be improved. End of day workers are just gone.

Great prices, communication, and people. they were fast, courteous, and knowledgeable. they have already completed two projects for me, they are now doing the third! read more

Rafael's company did our total redo 10 years ago and we were very happy with his results. He listens to what our vision was and offers his experience in landscaping. It was a very happy and beautiful job. So fast forward 10 years later . Our tree blew down in wind storm. So we needed his assistance to update and make a few changes. He was great again. ! Was fast to get us an estimate and helped with the boulders we wanted installed. It's hard to find such great work and we respect his work ethics . You would be happy with using Rafael's Landscaping. read more

Rafael and team did a great job on my front yard. I would recommend them if you need want quality work done.

Highly skilled. Super responsive and professional. Everything perfectly executed and on time. Both Rafael and his brother Carlos are gentlemen and a pleasure to work with. We needed a third of our driveway pavers pulled up and replaced for an infrastructure project. Everything was done on time, and every appointment was on time to the minute. This was vital, because we were coordinating with another contractor. I received one much lower estimate, but because of the delicate nature of this project, everything had to be done perfectly and on time, and it was. I would attach before and after photos of our paver driveway, but, due to the detailed work of Rafael's Landscape, our driveway looks exactly the same as it did before, which was the goal. They actually brought the area they worked on to brand new condition, but the details are so precise, they would not show in photos. read more

Love Rafael and his team. Detailed, honest, hardworking and fast! We have hired them for two separate jobs and we have been impressed both times. First job was in 2022, for concrete, sod and sprinkler system. And just recently, we extended our driveway, added a barrier wall and finished the sides of our house with concrete. We will always go to Rafael and his team for future jobs. read more

We recently used Rafael's Landscape to build 3 long walls, affecting 4 properties. Rafael came to view the properties, answered all of our questions, demonstrated good knowledge of building block walls, provided a free estimate, and his prices were reasonable. He returned when we had some questions on one of the walls, and he was able to clearly explain the options, pros and cons, to all of the involved owners. Rafael and Carlos were both hands-on involved throughout the whole project. All of the workers were courteous, respectful, professional, skilled, and worked well together. Our backyard was left clean when the project was done. The block walls all came out beautifully. We had at least two engineers who kept an eye on the project, and both were impressed with the techniques used to build the walls. Many thanks to Rafael, Carlos, and all of the men who worked on this project!! Steve and I highly recommend Rafael's Landscape. read more

I used Rafael 8 years ago for my backyard remodel so I didn't hesitate in having him do my Daughter's back yard. Excellent customer service, reasonable rates but the quality of his work is always amazing. He has many of the same workers that did our yard 8 years ago and it shows in his workmanship.

Rafael, Carlos and their crew were on time, great work done on a drainage system I needed installed. They were on time, did a great job replacing everything that had to be removed, and left everything looking better after they were done. Based on our recent rain storms I was able to see how the drain design worked, everything works as expected and flooding issues are resolved. read more

I needed the cement area replaced around my pool area. Rafael's Landscape did an excellent replacement quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend this company to anyone that needs cement replaced in their backyard. read more

I called Rafael to bail me out of a block retaining wall nightmare. I encountered boulders that needed dynamite rather than pick and shovel. Rafael's crew came out and Carlos excavated several gigantic stones that I could have never removed on my own. The entire crew were professional and worked together flawlessly. I especially enjoyed watching Carlos surgically remove those boulders with the backhoe. He knows what he's doing! The quality of the wall and the concrete driveway are outstanding, but the most unexpected part of the experience is how clean the crew left the job when finished. The price was fair and Rafael is a pleasure to deal with. I will be using Rafael's Landscape for the next project on the OTHER side of my house. read more

We had them do hardscape in the front and back yard, including concrete, D.G., courtyard and garden walls between our neighbor's properties. On time, curtious, and most of all top notch work. He and his crew worked really well with us as we did make some changes along the way. Would use again and highly recommend. read more

There was a leak in one of the sprinkler valves. We called Rafael, he answered his phone on the first call, said he would come by that same day to look at it. The next day he had Carlos come out and fix it. No charge, no hassle, no problem. Thank you, Rafael and Carlos. read more

Mark G. This is the second time I've used Rafael's services. first time was for back yard make over ( cement, sod, synthetic grass) most recently I had him redo our front yard with new sod, some cement work and rocks with pavers. Why I keep using Rafael is his quality of work, he has an excellent crew who show up on time and if you need to make changes there's never a problem, and all this at a fair price. I would highly recommend Rafael's Landscape service. read more

Rafael and his team did a great job!!! All our neighbors have been giving us compliments on how beautiful our new front yard looks. Rafael also provided us the most reasonable quote for our project compared to the other companies we contacted. The job was done on time and we love the results. read more

Rafael's Landscape - Landscaping Near Me - Rialto, California

I cannot speak on the actual work. However when it comes to communication, don't expect much. Very poor response. Reached out twice, finally responded after almost a week later. When i finally spoke to him, he asked that I please text him a picture of the area to get a better idea. Which I did as soon as I finished talking to him. No response or acknowledgment since then. If this is type of communication that is expected, I rather take my business elsewhere than to deal with any issues after for lack of communication from the business. read more

Sent inquiry about replacing some sod and weekly services; I never received a response. Disappointing.

Rafael was very prompt and responsive. He was very knowledgeable, not only about masonry and block, but also about design and matching colors. He took the time to show us different options and designs, and went with us to purchase the items to make sure it was exact what we wanted. His crew was very professional, and always consulted us before beginning any part of the job. They worked quick, but their quality was excellent. He would always answer his phone and texts for any questions, or would call back immediately. I would highly recommend him. read more

I hired Rafael back in February/March. I was initially happy with the end results until he did not fix the crack in my concrete less than a week after the job was finished. I was within the warranty but Rafael never came back to fix it. (Have text messages) As the months go by, concrete changed colors and now it looks blotchy. I won't say anything bad about Rafael's personality because he was very nice and professional. BUT I am not happy at all. If Rafael ignored fixing a small crack, I'm positive he wouldn't fix the concrete. My mother said to not sue him so Rafael is lucky because I would win. One thing that was positive was Rafael referred a guy that installed a beautiful gate. So this company is a hit and miss. Hire at your own risk. read more

Rafael's Landscape - Artificial turf in our backyard. - Landscaping Near Me - Rialto, California

Rafael for sure is the greatest, most knowledgeable and most honest landscaper that I ever knew. Out of the sudden, my sprinker system stopped working and it started to leak from the cap, all 5 of them. It was mindboggling because how could all 5 caps went bad at the same time. So, I requested several landscapers to come, to give me quotes for repair and to let me know what was wrong with my sprinkler systems. All of them came out and gave me quotes north of $300. Some of them really spoke with confidence; telling me that the pipe underneath broke, caps went bad etc. But none of them can give a straight answer of what is wrong with it and offer no guarantee. Being a hospitalist (healthcare practitioners who took care of dying people to keep them alive or heal them in ICU), all of those explanations did not make any sense, well at least to me. Sorry, for being a weird genius, can't help it. So I asked one of my perfectionist acquaintance about trusted landscaper. Steve gave me Rafael's number and he regarded Rafael highly. In no time, I called Rafael, and I had to wait for 3 days, but that's okay, 3 extra days won't kill my plants. Heck, even in ICU extra 3 days would not kill a patient. I cut the water line and watered the plants myself for 3 days. So when Rafael came, my hospitalist self emerged and not knowing Rafael, I reported everything that other landscapers told me. However, Rafael was undisturbed, he went to my sprinkler, opened the cap, opened the water line and he stared at me and told me "this one leaks due to not enough water pressure!" I was dumbfounded, and confused. In my mind, "oh, great another of those landscaper again." But, I always give people benefits of the doubt. Even though my mind kept thinking "How could it leak when the pressure's low???" But I followed through with Rafael. He went out of my house and opened the water line outside of my house, and it worked... Rafael fixed my sprinkler system in less than 30 minutes. Only highly knowledgeable and experienced landscaper could do this, finding the root cause and fix it within a blink of an eye. In the hospital, if someone's blood pressure floored due to too much calcium channel blocker, only highly experienced practitioner would not panic and gave an injection of calcium IV to correct the problem. Wow, I really appreciate highly knowledgeable people, especially someone who was not swayed by others opinion and for profit. And Rafael is one of them. I asked him, how much was it to fix my problems and he told me just $100. He could charge me for more, but he was not that kind of a person. I am amazed by him and now truly a fan. I am more than just regular fan now, after seeing all of his work on yelp. Truly an artist and master landscaper. I asked for his card and gave them all away. And for the next project, I would definitely have him to do it for me. Rafael got my stamp of approval as most honest and trusted master landscaper. Thank you Rafael!!! read more

Recently had a side yard RV parking pad poured by Raphael Landscaping. Raphael was easy to work with, showed up on time for the bid, listened to what I wanted, and made constructive suggestions. Job was scheduled quickly. They were neat and very detailed. Lots of attention to detail, both when framing the job and on pouring day. Carlos was very helpful, adding a couple last minute tweaks to the project. I would not hesitate to use them again. read more

Rafael and his crew did a fantastic job landscaping my backyard, literally from the ground up. Their experience shows, they have attention to detail, and most importantly they are punctual.

This is a review long over due! Rafael's is the best choice in any landscape. I called a few landscape businesses before finding Rafael. Rafael prices were fair and reasonable. I extended cement to my driveway to make room for a 3rd car. I also had trouble rolling my trashcans into the side of my house, because there was brick in the way. Rafael's crew cut the brick and fixed the brick to look like it had been there all along. Looks Great! Clean and precise and professional are the words to describe the work done. I do plan on using Rafael's landscaping again. I do recommend this company and with the greatest confidence know that you will like them too! read more

This is the second time we have used Rafael for landscaping work. I really can't say enough about his work. The work is great, they clean up when there done extremely well, and the price is great. We just had him replace our back yard lawn with turf. It came out great. He also put a small dog part (real grass) on the side of our house for our dog and turtle. Again great job. I told him he could use one of my existing sprinklers from the back yard ( not needed because of the turf) but he said the valves I had weren't as good as the ones he uses, so he wanted to add a new valve and line for the dog park grass. We did have to wait a week for the turf, because of COVID-19 and the turf we picked wasn't in stock, no big deal. A year of so ago, he put pavers in our front yard and again a great job. If you need any type of landscaping done, he is the go to guy. read more

Rafael and his team were amazing! Quality work at a fair price. The team was accommodating and willing to adjust their workflow despite some interruptions on our end. He made sure to check in several times during the process to make sure nothing was missed and was as we had previously discussed. When we had to delay part of the work for several weeks, he fit his schedule around our needs. He helped us add concrete, level our grass, move sprinklers, and add some drains. read more

Rafael and his crew did such an excellent job on our retaining walls. Rafael was extremely responsive for every step of the project, a rare quality these days. His crew's craftsmanship is extremely high quality and we are so pleased with the results of the work. Their prices are very reasonable and our project was completed on time. We can't wait to work with them again on some more outside projects. It's really hard to find contractors who do more of a modern style in Riverside and I'm very pleased with the results. read more

I've had the pleasure of hiring Rafael twice over the last four years for my backyard projects, and each time, I've been thoroughly impressed. Most recently, they installed cement, synthetic grass, and a planter, showcasing their exceptional responsibility, trustworthiness, dependability, and organization. Their workmanship is consistently flawless, which is why I've also recommended them to my neighbors. In fact, four of them have hired and we all are very happy with his work. I highly recommend Rafael for any landscaping needs. You will not be disappointed. read more

Rafael came to the rescue to resolve my drainage problems during the last heavy rains. He and his crew promptly attacked the issues that I had and everything was resolved in short order.

We have interviewed several landscape contractors and decided on Rafael's landscape. We chose Rafael because a friend used him and has nothing bad to say about his company. We also liked what we saw in the friend's yards. We are very happy with Rafael's crew and the work they completed. Rafael was not only able to transfer my ideas from paper to reality, but also gave me good advice. He advised me to enlarge the fire pit area so that people can sit comfortably around the fire. He, Carlos and their crews are all very easy to work with. I post some photos to let the pictures speak for themselves. Rafael does not do patio covers. So I hired another company to install the patio cover. Both companies work well together and separately. Our landscape project completed with the patio cover installed. I highly recommend Rafael's Landscape. read more

I bought a house around 4 years ago and have had to work with all sorts of contractors for a variety of home improvement projects. To date, Raphael and his people has been the best to deal with. This was a sizable project since it involved a total teardown of my backyard. New weed barrier, grass, aggregates, plants, fountains, irrigation, and landscape lights were put in. This company came in and did everything with minimal supervision, were always respectful, completed the project in time, came in within budget and cleaned up after themselves. My only wish is that all contractors were as headache free and professional as Raphael and his crew. Thank you again for the home's beautiful landscape. read more
