    a small pond surrounded by rocks
    Analiese H.

    Amazing company! This team is comprised of nothing but hard workers and you can tell they love their job! Eric was very flexible with our build - the perfect mix of professional and down to earth. I felt like we were friends by the end of the project. (And he did do a lot to recommend quality local contractors for a few different things we needed, like electrical, to help us know we weren't being taken advantage of.) The team built out a beautiful pond for our two turtles, which they absolutely love! The process was quicker than I expected, a testament to their knowledge and expertise. The only reason for 4 vs 5 stars is the cost. They do AMAZING work, but it is NOT cheap. That being said, 6 months after install, I had concern of a minor leak, and they sent someone out to take a look and repaired at no cost. All that to say, if you're looking for the best team to install a custom water feature/pond in SoCal - you absolutely want these guys!

    The POND DIGGER installed my pond 11years ago and recently did a major overhaul. I can't recommend more highly their professional expert services. Whether you're thinking of adding a custom pond to your landscape or your established water feature needs an update, you can't go wrong consulting with Eric and his team.

    Greenscape

    (49 reviews)

    We are currently wrapping up a multi-phase backyard renovation with the help of Greenscape/Evolve…read moreand I am thoroughly impressed. Initially I had intended to hire them for only the first phase of our project, but they did such a good job and beat competitors prices to earn our business as we moved into other phases. To shade this further, I am an HOA manager and frequently hire and manage all types of vendors -I am very familiar with the process of working with landscape and pool companies and I really believe this one is exceptional enough to give a raving review. Juan and Sal were incredibly professional, their equipment was up to date, their knowledge was extensive, and their team was respectful. Every day they worked hard all day only breaking for a brief lunch; they cleaned up and made our yard safe for our dogs every evening (or let us know if there was something we should be aware of like wet cement). If there was a problem they provided a solution and made it right. In several instances they went above and beyond by helping us with additional requests along the way like removing a shrub or an additional piece of concrete without nickel and diming us. The crew was the same guys for most of the job, which allowed us to feel more secure in leaving our home under their care while we came and went throughout the day. For every job they mobilized FAST; working to get us scheduled within just a day or two of each contract signature. Juan and Sal did not disappear after the initial bid either- they were there every day either supervising or working alongside the crew, and when I had a question they were super responsive via text. I also really appreciated they accept major credit cards without an additional fee. As far as specific job areas: Demolition: This may seem straightforward but our demo involved quite a bit of skill and attention to detail. They dismantled a poorly built fishpond and retained the material for us, providing pallets and stacking them neatly so that we were able to sell them later. They made excellent cuts to our cement and removed portions so that you can't even tell that it hasn't always been that way. They removed a wall built of boulders and glass bottles (don't ask me what the prior homeowner was thinking) with a deep footing that ran adjacent to the pool without breaking anything or hurting any surrounding plants. Concrete pouring: This came out beautiful. we had new steps poured, a new slab, and some steps added on to existing cement. They blend so well and the finish and border is lovely. We caught a small miscommunication between framing and pouring and they came early the next morning to make sure it was taken care of with time to spare before the cement truck got here. They coordinated with our pergola contractor to be sure they properly placed the footings and conduit too. Pool tile: We were not originally planning to redo our pool tile but the price was so fair that we couldn't refuse. The project was originally scheduled to take a little longer, but when I requested it to be expedited because I was hosting Easter that weekend, they made it happen. Even though it wasn't in our original scope, this is one of the things we are most satisfied with- it made such a big difference to our yard and the tile selections were beautiful. They also thoroughly cleaned the plaster - it looks like a whole new pool. Fence: Because we had to work with our neighbors on this, it was a little tougher to make everyone happy. Even so, Greenscape/Evolve made it happen even when it meant they had to redo some things to satisfy multiple parties. We had a very specific design in mind for our front facing fence (horizontal with metal accents) and they were able to create something similar for our budget. As mentioned, there are some odds and ends that we are still wrapping up, but I believe that this is a rare company that is ethical and deserving of trust. It seems there is nothing they can't do.

    i was very disappointed. He said he is Sal from…read moregreenscape. He sounded very competent, kind, and has 4.8/48 rate, so I hired him even though it was a little more expensive. Next day, found plants are more drier, Water timer is malfunctioning. Next day I called him back about the problems. He said he will drop by, but he never shows up, No Call for several days. I had to hire other to fix the problems he has created. This is the worst case I have ever experienced.
