A few years after our landscaping…read moreproject was completed, we noticed that a few items had stopped working properly and some areas were no longer in the best shape. We reached out to his office, and communication was prompt, professional, and easy throughout the entire process. To our surprise and appreciation, he personally came out with his team to take a look and addressed every concern right away. They fixed everything quickly and efficiently, and made sure everything was working and looking great again. It's rare these days to find a company that stands behind their work years later, but Swanson Landscaping truly does. Their commitment to customer service and quality really shows. We're so grateful they made everything right, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, honest landscaping services in Livermore!

We used our existing rock and brought in new bark. All of the old irrigation was replaced with drip lines and they pruned back our large, overgrown trees in the front. Very knowledgable and completed in five days!! I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Then I elected three companies to provide quotes for the projects. I selected Myers Landscaping and I am glad I did. The were reasonable and created the best design ideas. They provided a graphic depiction of what the job would look like when completed which made it easier to make a decission and we got exactly what was promised. The entrances look fantastic! More importantly, when I had some questions several weeks after the job was completed they quickly respond and met with me to resolve the issues. Thumbs up!

We worked with Landscape Experts Inc (LEI) to revitalize our wild yard, cutting back swaths of…read moreovergrowth and transforming it with a variety of beautiful California native plants and nine fruit trees. They also carved out a lovely hillside with custom stairs, a spacious terrace, and game trails perfect for enjoying the view. LEI works with YesPlease.Garden (YPG) who managed the design process and Fresh Coat Restoration who completed the new fence. The partnerships were well integrated and it felt like working with a single team. See my Google Maps review for more on YPG. We are very happy with our project and would recommend LEI because they were professional, courteous, reliable, and provided clear and upfront pricing. Documenting decisions in writing proved helpful for keeping everyone on the same page. Any problems we had were resolved fairly, such as correcting the direction of our stairs. Aaron is a man of his word but prefers to conduct most of his business through texting. We first contacted LEI and they promptly scheduled a time to visit our property with YPG to see what was possible within the budget we set out. We completed the design with YPG and LEI scheduled a time for the project demolition. A later approximate time for planting was set, but that was dependent on the availability of the various plants we had selected. Everything scoped in the design was completed within the budget and any add-ons we later requested were priced separately and fairly.

My wife and I are in love with our yard again, and we are very happy with the work Aaron and his…read morecrew did. After deciding to remove our pool, we hired Aaron as the installer for our new landscape project, and we are so glad we did. For months, work was moving forward almost every day, from demolition prep and grading to hardscape, planting, irrigation, lighting, fencing, pergola installation, pebble work, and the finishing touches. The quality of the work was excellent throughout. The paver patio, carport, and front entry all turned out beautifully, and the plants, irrigation, and lighting were installed with great care. We were especially impressed by the rock and pebble work, particularly the dry creek and front mow strip. The mix of stone sizes gave everything a natural, detailed, and polished look that really elevated the final result. Aaron also has a strong eye for detail. He regularly caught things that needed adjustment, even when we had not noticed them ourselves, and he stayed focused on getting everything right. While there were some issues that delayed finishing the project, Aaron took responsibility and worked with us to make them right, which we truly appreciated. In the end, what matters most is that we are thrilled with the outcome. Our yard feels beautiful, welcoming, and complete, and we look forward to years of enjoying it.

Ken worked patiently with us on refining the layout and designs. He always paid early and close attention to important and critical details. During the demolition and construction, Ken and his team needed to adapt to multiple unforeseen conditions. He carefully explained the challenges and offered solutions to address them. More often than not he had already identified the best course of action. Overall, it was a great experience working with Ken and we really love how our project turned out. He is highly recommended!

Highly recommend Ken and Landscape Dynamics. We've lived in our house for 20 years and have worked…read morewith multiple contractors designing and updating every aspect of our home from the backyard, the interior and finally the front yard. Ken is by far the best. He is hands on and involved in the process from day one. He shows up, doesn't make excuses, doesn't get discouraged and truly has his clients' best interest at heart. So much so that we felt entirely comfortable having him handle all interactions with the city regarding permits as well as all the vendors we sourced from. Ken worked 100 percent for our interests and found the best pricing available (even if it meant not using his primary vendors), ensuring we didn't have to pay one cent more for improvements than we had to. I've never felt so relieved and confident turning over total responsibility to a contractor...ever. He's not necessarily the fastest worker, but he is honest, meticulous, thoughtful and creative. No short cuts, no compromise. He is diligent and truly wants nothing short of complete satisfaction from his clients. He redid our entire front yard and driveway and we couldn't be happier! Pavers, decking, planting, design, irrigation, drainage, flagstone, fencing, curb and gutter and lighting...everything. A+ Class act.

I wanted to get a quote for a simple landscaping project. I cleared my schedule to ensure I was home to meet with their representative. Not only did they fail to show up, but there was absolutely no communication--no phone call, no text, and no email to explain the absence or request a reschedule. If this is how they handle an initial consultation, I have zero confidence in their ability to manage a project or maintain a schedule.

They finished the job in only about 3-4 days & pretty much started immediately after we locked in on the price. Highly recommended if you are looking to get pavers!

Josue and his team provided a very thoughtful plan with every detail in the contract, and swiftly finished the whole project in less than 2 weeks. The whole job includes quite some digging to implement 2 underground water pipe systems that navigate all the way to 30ft away from the house, plus additional gutter downspout installation. Besides, Josue assured 100% customer satisfaction: he is super active during the whole process, almost visiting the site himself everyday, and answered every single of my question( I asked a lot of questions based on my research and he was so patient to take care of them). Moreover, I insisted the plan to be changed in the middle of the work because I discovered other potential concerns with this old house, but Josue did not hesitate to change the plan per my ask and even voluntarily lowered the agreed price due to less work performed in the new plan. I would definitely work with he and his team again!
