My wife and I sought a reputable local landscaping company to complete the final, crucial phase of our backyard pool and outdoor kitchen renovation. After consulting several general contractors, we selected Smith Landscaping, largely due to the expertise of its owner, Stacey Smith. Over more than 30 years in the Alta Loma area, we have developed considerable knowledge regarding planting and maintaining trees and plants in our garden. We consider ourselves well-versed in both regional and uncommon plant species. Following our initial meetings with Stacey, it became clear that he is an exemplary landscape professional, offering thoughtful vision and effective communication regarding our project goals. Throughout the project, Stacey was consistently present, guiding his crew and making adjustments as each area was planted. His meticulous approach ensured that every plant and tree was positioned with precision. This attentive oversight greatly exceeded our expectations in every respect. The team completed the installation by adding a sophisticated drip irrigation system, low voltage lighting, and high-quality redwood mulch. All plants were carefully selected from trusted nurseries, and only premium materials--including mulches and soils--were used. Stacey's keen attention to detail and commitment to excellence are rare in today's market. His dedication to his craft is evident in the pride he takes in his work. Smith Landscaping skillfully translates client expectations into reality through exceptional project management and artistic vision. We are confident this level of professionalism will impress future clients as much as it did us. If you have any doubts, we encourage you to contact Stacey Smith directly to experience his expertise firsthand. read more

Smith Landscaping transformed our Upland front yard from a nothing to one that we now thoroughly enjoy every single day! We became aware of this company having noticed a home in our neighborhood that we found to have been thoughtfully & beautifully landscaped. Spoke w/ the homeowners who referred us to Smith Landscaping. From our initial meeting, it was clear that Stacey is a consummate professional. We found his estimated cost to be very fair. I had a very precise vision of what I wanted for our yard. Stacey listened to my ideas, executing in a timely manner via panoramic digital renderings, each to perfection, capturing exactly the plan that been evolving in my mind for several months. As our project evolved, Stacey offered a few suggestions that may be aesthetically and functionally beneficial. We opted for each and are so happy that we did. Throughout the process we were blown away by each transformation coming to fruition. Beginning to end, Stacy and his crew of professionals continued to exceed our expectations. Could NOT be happier! read more

After a distressing experience with our previous gardener, I found myself searching for a trustworthy and professional landscaping company. That's when I discovered Smith Landscape through Google and decided to reach out to inquire about their landscape maintenance services. From our very first interaction, Stacey was incredibly attentive and made the effort to visit our home in person, carefully assessing our yard and taking the time to discuss their services and pricing in detail. The estimate he provided was very reasonable, especially given the size of our backyard. We began working with Smith Landscape in October 2025, and I can honestly say their team has consistently exceeded our expectations. Each week, the crew of three arrives promptly at the same time, and their dedication is evident in everything they do. They spend the first hour meticulously weeding, cleaning shrubbery, and trimming or hedging as needed, followed by mowing and edging in the final half hour. What truly stands out to me is the pride they take in their work and their willingness to listen to our feedback to ensure our satisfaction. Stacey's personal involvement during the initial visits to relay our requirements to the crew was especially reassuring and greatly appreciated. Thanks to Smith Landscape, our yard has not looked this beautiful in years. It brings us genuine joy to look outside and see such a well-cared-for space. We are extremely pleased with Smith Landscape Maintenance Service and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking reliable and professional landscape care. read more

When I decided to transition to desert landscaping, my priority was high-quality workmanship rather than the inconsistent results I was seeing throughout my neighborhood. I selected Stacey Smith because many of the landscapes I admired were his work, and it was clear that he approaches every project with a high level of precision and care. While he is direct and opinionated, that is because he views each completed yard as a reflection of his professional reputation. read more

Stacy made sure to check on things regularly and offered suggestions on the project. read more

Stacey redesigned and created our backyard into a beautiful oasis with a new patio structure, firepit, paver walkways and sitting areas.

We recently completed our 3rd project with Smith Landscape, this time some significant drainage work to alleviate flooding in our front yard. Stacey and his crew were excellent as always and completed the job at a reasonable price and within a reasonable time frame. It happened to rain only a day or two after the job was completed and when one side wasn't flowing quite like we had hoped, Stacey and the crew were back a couple of days later and quickly resolved the issue. We couldn't be happier with the results and customer service. We will definitely be using his services again in the future. read more

I totally don't understand or agree with the couple low ratings I read. My husband and I found Stacey to be very professional and consistently so from start to finish. It's obvious that he cares about the quality of work he puts forth, which is very rare these days. We needed our (corner house) front yard done and presented a few ideas to Stacey. He listened intently to our particular taste, made a few welcome suggestions, and ultimately came up with a sweet design. The finished product speaks for itself. Our neighbors compliment our yard all the time. Sometimes in the early evening when the lights turn on the landscape (yes, he installed accent lighting as well), I still think of Stacey and his crew and feel grateful for the beautiful job they did. The end result is better than we hoped for. Thank you Stacey and crew! You guys are the best. read more

We are absolutely in love with our new backyard! We have a small yard, but wanted a lot done with it. Stacey and his crew were professional and exceeded our expectations. He had great ideas and made it look beautiful. We now have a custom built-in BBQ, an amazing fire pit, a patio cover with lights and a ceiling fan, beautiful landscaping, and even an artificial turf putting green. Everything looks amazing, especially at night when it is all lit up. We love it so much that Stacey is now doing our front yard. It did take a while to complete, but a lot of that was due to the crazy rain we had this year. It was definitely worth the wait! Thank you Smith Landscaping. read more

Smith landscaping did an excellent job of rebuilding our cracked slump-stone planter. Tree roots had cracked the planter in several places. We got several estimates from masons to rebuild the planter, but they didn't know how to cut back the tree roots that caused the problem. We also got several estimates from tree trimmers to cut back the roots, but they didn't do masonry. Stacey Smith and his crew did the whole job, without harming the tree in any way. read more

Smith Landscape helped me get my yard back to health. I had lots of weeds, overgrowth, and poor maintenance over too long a period of time. I saw a good recommendation on Next Door and met with the owner Stacey to lay out a plan. The crew showed up a few days later and spent all day making it look great. We agreed to regular maintenance and the crew comes out on time and keeps everything in order. I'm now ready for redoing by front yard and will use Smith Landscape and report back. read more

I think he has too much going. Not sure if he even has a license. Too many surprises. Can't trust his word.

Just finished a yard make-over including a paver sidewalk leading to a new paver patio. It is gorgeous. Stacy and his team delivered beautiful work in a professional way. He listened to my problems and requests and went well beyond my expectations. Cannot wait to share my fabulous patio and yard with friends and neighbors. I can certainly recommend Smith Landscaping and plan to use the m for maintenance service as well as for future landscape projects . read more

He came out initially to give estimate, which was high, yet I thought he would live up to his promises. He sent a crew out and they seemed to change each week. I texted pics of issues I was having and wanted corrected, they were never taken care of and he wanted me to be in charge of his men. I was not home when the crew would come to mow blow go. I also asked him to give me estimates for upgrades and he never would. He even said he would meet me at my place and go over issues so we agreed on a day and time and I made sure I was there and he never showed. He wouldn't want to text, cuz it would be in writing, he wanted to talk on the phone. I couldn't always do that. He then texted me and said he didn't want to work for me anymore. Ha! I fired him and found some who is less per month and has already reseeded my yard, moved the sprinklers, installed a new time clock, and more! read more

We have hired Stacey and Smith Landscape twice now; most recently to overhaul our backyard completely. Both remodels were executed flawlessly and within budget and time. Our latest project included demo, a new paver patio with wooden patio cover, irrigation, and some light landscaping. We are thrilled once again with the outcome. Stacey was here pretty much every day checking in and making sure that the progress was in line with our vision and done properly. His crew is very respectful and keeps things as tidy as can be. We look forward to working with him again on future projects. read more

Smith Landscaping is very professional and their landscapers are hard working. Always keeping up with my yard and all there is to do. They try to accommodate your needs for your landscape. I was impressed by their diligent efforts to bring my yard back into shape after all the bushes were overgrown. My yard means alot to me and I think they are the best landscapers in the area. read more

We hired Stacey for an initial cleanup and long term maintenance at my 101 year old mother's house. It's a sensitive situation since she is still very much "in charge." The whole crew at Smith's Landscaping are excellent. It's nice to be able to communicate with Stacey so easily. The yard looks better than it ever has looked! read more

We were extremely excited to get our outdoor kitchen and huge pavers job started. That was 5 months ago. We paid Stacey for the renderings of outdoor kitchen which took quite some time to get, then quite some time to do requested changes. He took the time to take us to a couple of his projects and we were impressed. We have a function at our home in September and he knew we wanted things done for it. We thought we would have his help choosing appliances and we finally had to do that ourselves. We never got a contract and, after contacting him several times as to when he would get started (it was always "next week"). My husband finally cornered him and asked for a contract and a start date. After speaking to him today, Stacey emailed this: "... after our conversation I really do not feel comfortable anymore of working with you guys you knew all along I was busy I moved many people out of the way to help you out was trying to move along very quickly on projects to get you in there for this September 19 shindig so anyway best of luck and hopefully this outdoor creations can help you out thanks." Needless to say, we are very upset and disappointed. read more

We went to them for an extensive paver and outdoor kitchen job and we started with him preparing renderings for our front and back yard. We should have realized they were a bad choice when it took about a month to get the initial drawings that contained many mistakes. Then it took a few weeks for him to make the minor corrections. We wanted to go with him but having no bid after 5 months doesn't seem like he was doing anything to help us out. We called him on this and then he said he didn't want to work with us. He talked a good game but at the end of the day he did almost nothing. We will find someone else who wants to work with us in a professional manner and get this done. We are just sorry that we wasted all this time listening to his excuses! read more

We hired Smith Landscape for intense backyard clean up when we first moved in and monthly maintenance for over a year. The crew is professional, reliable and the owner, Stacey, is responsive and extremely helpful. This company does quality work - our property (which used to be wild!) is immaculate. read more

Incredibly flaky, makes promises he can't keep. Can't show up to appointments. If your job is small, go with someone else. Otherwise you will probably be waiting around forever. This review is solely on the follow-through. Cannot testify to the quality of the job because the work was never finished. read more

This is to commend Stacey for the excellent work in designing and completing our lovely garden, complete with many colorful plants and trees and lighting. Stacey's knowledge and his creative vision really enhances the projects he undertakes. He has transformed our yard into a wonderful showplace. Stacey recommended we replace our sod with artificial turf, and we are so glad we followed his advice. We highly recommend Stacey and his crew if you're considering a landscape project. read more

Terrible customer service. Talked to a representative who was very condescending and seemed "bothered" by my call. I would not recommend Smith Landscape. One star given only because you have to in order to post a review. They really deserve zero stars! read more

My two star is for two reasons: 1: the person I spoke to says that my project was "too small" for him and that unless it was over $10,000 he was not interested 2: it would have been a 1-star, but the guy was at least nice about it... If your project is over 10k, sure, give this dude a call. Otherwise, don't waste HIS time. read more

We highly recommend Stacey and his crew for any landscaping design and work. We recently purchased in Upland but the previous owner left the back yard a complete wreck, and the recent rainy season left us with a dire need for drains and grading. We contacted Stacey after asking around on the Nextdoor App (he came highly recommended) and he immediately understood our budget and worked with us to create a wonderful design, including two gravity drains connected directly to the downspouts of the roof rain gutters, a new fence (which wasn't initially part of our plan but Stacey was able to tear down the old and complete the new in less than a week), overhauling the sprinkler system back AND front), planting of over 100 plants (of various variety) and nearly a dozen large trees (which he is open to you picking, even though he has exactly the right choices in mind). He even was willing to build in a garden area in one of the corners so we can plant vegetables. (On this point I am especially happy, because I really don't like planter boxes and Stacey was willing to modify his design to appease me. He also offered to dig out all the rock from that corner so the garden would flourish!) Before he started he noticed that we just took in a tiny Maltese-mix puppy and used organic weedkiller (instead of Roundup) because he was conscious of the puppy's health. Once he started the job, it felt like a whirlwind. His guys work hard and quick (put some Gatorade in a cooler and give them a shady area for lunch). As well, Stacey is extremely attentive and responsive, more often than not he was at our house overseeing everything making sure details that we wouldn't have noticed are completed. Stacey takes a lot of pride in his work and clearly gets satisfaction from having happy clients. We (plus puppy) are very happy with our yard. read more

Just finished a backyard overhaul with Stacey and needless to say I am beyond pleased with the final product. You can tell when someone truly cares about the service they provide and product they produce, Stacey is one of those guys. He was on site constantly checking on the progress, asking questions, providing feedback etc. He went above and beyond with other little things in the backyard beyond the scope of the proposal. I would highly recommend Stacey to anyone looking to remodel or completely redo their backyard. He knows what he is doing. He is creative and his vision is top notch. Thanks Stacey! read more

Stacey is a pro at what he does. He took my ugly old driveway and front yard and turned it into one of the nicest in my neighborhood. He worked with my wife and I to find the right plants so that there is something usually always flowering in my yard. He took our needs into account and created a runway for us to take out our trash cans in and out without running over any of the plants. I can't say enough how happy we are with the results and our partnership with Stacey. Can't wait to start the backyard with him and his team! read more

Smith Landscape - My awesome new front yard. Thanks Stacey! - Masonry/Concrete Near Me - Upland, California

So I was looking for a landscaper to do my back yard in a gated community. Now I'm pretty picky and expect a quality job for any project I have done at my house. I interviewed Stacy and asked for a bid. He came out the next day and reviewed my yard which had not been touched up for quite a long time. He had some outstanding ideas and told me he could start right away. I checked one of his prior jobs and was convinced the quality of work he does was what I was looking for. He team was consistent in the project even through the bad weather. I was impressed with the finished product and would show his work to anyone who would like to see it. Good job Smith Landscaping. Scott read more

Smith Landscape designed and executed our front yard landscape from reinstalling sprinklers and valves to yard lighting and planting trees, plants, shrubs, roses, and grass. They communicated well about times they were going to show up and times they were not. We had a smaller job and the owner was upfront about the length of the project. We especially liked that a daytime and nighttime rendering was done so we were able to see what the yard would look like both day and night. They worked well with our wants and suggestions and made sure we were happy with their work. They also maintain our front and backyard for weekly maintenance and we have nothing but great things to say about that - a little on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for in this instance! The owner came to the job site every single day and touched base with us before and after anything was done. He is still in touch and easy to get ahold of for maintenance questions. read more
