Working with Growscapes was easy and seamless. Anthony came out to look at my job. He provided me with some suggestions and input. Thereafter, I quickly received a job bid/price that was reasonable and fair. When the work began, they set the plants out and made sure I was happy with the plant placement. Victor and his crew worked quickly and efficiently. When the job was complete, everything looked and worked great. Upon completion of everything, I received an email from Anthony providing me with the irrigation schedule and aftercare instructions. This company was very easy to work with. Anthony, Victor and the others were very diligent and friendly. I highly recommend this company for your landscape needs.

I recently worked with Jake Jo and the team at Echo Family Landscaping for a major backyard…read morerenovation, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. They handled our entire project from start to finish, which included installing new pavers, turf, and an irrigation system. The quality of their work is fantastic, and the finished yard looks absolutely beautiful--exactly like the design photos we had hoped for. As with any large landscaping project, there were a couple of minor issues that popped up along the way, but Jake was incredibly responsive and made sure everything was taken care of very quickly without any hassle. Overall, I am extremely happy with how the yard turned out. If you're looking for a reliable team in the Irvine area that does high-quality work and stands behind it, I highly recommend Jake and Echo Family Landscaping.

Jake and his crew completed a rather large project on our new construction home that took…read moreapproximately 10 months (pool , spa, firepit, outdoor kitchen, custom pergola, front, back and side yards, water features, landscaping, etc...etc.., but it was well worth the time and cost. We purchased a home in a new development, so we vetted many different companies to build all the features we wanted on an empty canvas (ie: dirt lot). Our budget was around $290-$360k. We got around 6 bids, which we narrowed down to 3. Out of the 3, Jake gave us the most confidence in his knowledge and eye for details. We visited some of his previous projects and were thoroughly impressed. A lot of our neighbors used competitors that were cheaper, but when we saw their completed projects, you could see a lot of corners that were cut and the shoddy quality. Some look down right terrible. The majority were unhappy with the work provided by those companies. The crews were constantly changing on the same projects (subbed out to 3rd party) and there was no post-completion support. I know that there have been lawsuits filed on some of the projects. Our home, on the otherhand, has been the highlight of our neighborhood and we have people constantly taking pictures and asking for details on Jake. Not just because of the design itself, but also because of his hardworking crew. We've been beyond happy with Jake and his team and love showing off our new outdoor space. Echo was at the top end of our budget, but the quality is A+++ and 100% worth it. He didn't cut any corners and his crew pulled 10-12 hour days, 6 days a week, for 10 months. Best thing is that Jake personally checked the quality of the work on a regular basis. If anything was off by a tiny bit, Jake redid it to make it perfect. I consider myself to be detail oriented, almost to the point of being unbearable, but I never had to worry about the work being done because of the QC by Jake. This in itself was worth it. The crew was consistently the same people and HIGHLY skilled. Some of the best work I'd seen. Ricardo was our project lead and so talented and friendly. All the team was very respectful and thoughtful. They cleaned up after every day and never blasted music or talked loudly or cursed. (Which was very important to me because my neighbor and I work from home). They were kind to my wife, kids, and neighbors as well. My parents also hired Echo to fix various issues around their yard and pool and had the same experiences we did with very proficient and highly skilled crew members that worked hard. Also, the small issues we had after completion were addressed immediately. Most contractors rarely come back after you've finished paying them, but Jake really values his clients and takes pride in making sure they're taken care of before, during, and most importantly, after the project is done. There are tons of companies out there, but nobody really does it like Echo and I HIGHLY recommend them. It's worth the investment, not just financially, but also the time and memories you will have enjoying the beautiful space and features.

We started with a Zoom consultation where I was able to walk him through the property and the scope of the project. Bryan is incredibly knowledgeable and easy to talk to, making the whole process seamless. ​What stood out most was his professionalism and transparency. Even when our Zoom connection dropped, he called me immediately to finish the conversation without missing a beat. He was also very honest about the value of different tree sizes, guiding me toward the right functional solution rather than just pushing the most expensive option. It's rare to find that level of integrity!

From day one, Mike and his crew made us feel like their top priority, and their work speaks for itself. Our yard remodel turned out absolutely phenomenal. Mike was incredibly communicative and transparent throughout the entire process. Whether it was helping us choose materials, fine-tuning our vision, or explaining each decision with his expertise, he was there every step of the way. He never pushed unnecessary extras and was always upfront and realistic, which we truly appreciated. As for the team, they were an absolute pleasure to work with--kind, reliable, and hardworking. They showed up early every single day, and they completed our front yard remodel in exactly 8 weeks, just as promised. The final cost was almost spot on with the original quote, which was another huge plus. Our new front yard looks amazing, and we've already received so many compliments! I'll be sure to update with photos once we finish everything else. When it comes time for our next project, there's no doubt--we'll be calling Mike and the team at Sea Breeze again.
