    Backyard entrance ( in the corner looking at thru the other side of yard)
    Shaun D.

    Very fast and efficient. I did a few price estimates with other companies and his was the fairest amount. He doesn't do plants, which isn't a big deal. Gives me time to research what i want and probably have DIY.

    Backyard Construction

    I only have good words to say for Ve and his Team, I had looked into more than 5 quotations from different landcaping companies and so far his is the most affordable one that aligns to our budget and plan, he is open to working within your budget, is not a push over and very easy and professional to work with. The entire team is very efficient and Ve is very detailed and hands on. They finished the construction fast and communicates properly. He even did some additional works for free when we added a few minor features. So far we are very impressed with how he transformed our backyard from a complete dirt to a relaxing area at a fraction cost! Highly recommended and will definitely work with them when we are ready for the retaining wall. Good job guys and thank you to the whole team. It's a very pleasant experience.

    Concrete Steps
    Monica J.

    Ve has been easy to work with. They did all of this and concrete in the backyard in two weeks. They not only did the concrete hardscape including rerouting our original steps, they also did the wood retaining wall, planting the plants and adding rocks as well as repair some fencing. They work really hard and very responsive. Thank you Ve!

    Ve's crew did an excellent job transforming my messy front yard into a modern, hardscaped space. The team built a retaining wall, created a walkway with large concrete slabs, laid artificial turf, and installed a drip system for new plants. Ve communicated effectively and delivered the project on time. I highly recommend his crew for landscaping projects of any size.

    Bottom line - spectacular workmanship, dedication and accountability. Would highly recommend for pretty much any size project in landscaping. Early on I reached out to Ve and 5 other landscapers for quotes. Ve was always there, on time and continuously willing to discuss options and pricing. The pricing was great and I eventually decided to hire Ve. From day 1 Ve showed up with 4 guys and worked hard every day. Ve estimated 6 weeks to complete the project (big project - 5000 sq ft) and it took 5.5 weeks. Mind you this was all dirt before Ve took it in. Happy to be a reference for anyone thinking of hiring Ve. Highly recommended.

    We had a design in mind for our backyard and we were struggling to find good landscaping companies. We saw our neighbors backyard and got in touch with VE. He came over the same day, gave us some really good ideas and went over what we want to do within our budget. They started the work in a week and finished everything in 2 weeks. They are super fast and efficient. I highly recommend them for your backyard work!

    After:  new wood retaining wall
    Dustin Y.

    I Contacted Ve to help my mom with building a retaining wall. I found him on Yelp so I reached out to him and he came over within a couple of hours and provided my mom with a quote. She hired him immediately. Ve and his crew came over the very next morning and started the work. Completed everything in two days. He tore out her old retaining wall and put up a new wood retaining wall and laid rock down in her front yard. Ve's work is excellent! This company is extremely reliable and very good communicators and I can't thank them enough!

    He used pavers based on the pictures we had shown him. Set up the pergola and built the wooden seating area.
    Finla P.

    We are brand new home owner with no knowledge of backyard work and the materials that are suitable for outdoors. Ve is communicative and experienced in his work. We showed him pictures of what we wanted done and with that he was able to build us exactly what we had asked for. My husband & I never had to worry about how the work was getting done or the quality, Ve would always keep us in loop and help us make decision where we weren't sure. He is not just great at what he does, he also needs no supervision and I cannot emphasize enough how reliable he is. Meticulous at his job, he was a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond to ensure our backyard matched our vision. My husband & I highly recommend Ve for any and all of your backyard landscaping. He is as good as they come and he won't break your bank.

    Pergola
    Walrus D.

    Ve Landscape did a great job with our Pergola. We got several quotes, but none were favorable or fair pricing, or even care to help. I saw Ve on Yelp, and reached out to him. Immediately, he provided options and dropped some helpful knowledge. He knows his stuff. No beating around the bush. Then we set an appt. He was on time and provided the best quote for our 12x10 pergola. It took him a few days to finish the job and it came out wonderful. He went well beyond. We love our Pergola and his service. No bs. On time. High quality Pergola. See pic. I will be using Ve for future landscape work. I recommend him. He knows his craft. Thanks, Ve!

    This is what my backyard looks like now thanks to Ve and his crew! Awesome work!
    Vu T.

    I'm so glad I found Ve on Yelp because not only does he do a great job, he's also a very fair and hard working person. I met with about 3-4 other contractors to get an estimate for my yard, and every single one of them tried to overcharge me. As you can tell from my pictures, I just wanted cement in my yard. Not only did Ve give me a great price, he even offered to install a drip system for when I'm ready for plants. When I told him I wanted to put down rocks only for now since it's the winter time, he happily agreed to help me. He even told me to contact him whenever I'm ready for the plants and he will help me. I already recommended Ve to my relatives and friends. Thanks again for the awesome work Ve! Will definitely be using you again in the future.

    the front yard of a home
    Sharon W.

    Ve was referred to us from a friend who lives nearby. He gave us a very reasonable estimate for our front yard landscaping work, and started working on our yard soon after. They completed the work within two weeks and executed the vision we had for our front yard. They did a fantastic job. We received many compliments from our neighbors as well.

    Unhappy yard
    Genette D.

    I am saddened to give such a awful review when I came in contact with this company I was so excited about cleaning and beatifying my yard. The positive is that I got immediate response and Mr. Hoang was punctual. Which is hard to find these days. Unfortunately I find that I overpaid for services and that the work was incomplete. In our initial meeting I listed the services I needed and it seemed that he can deliver. I thought the original quote was fair and reasonable for what I wanted. We agreed to split the work in 2 days, Day 1 Clean up day of the front, back yards and two trees: a palm and partial dead tree in front. Day 2 was to plant ground cover, add a 12' rock border and pressure wash the walkway. Day 1 they were on time and starting cleaning out the back yard, two hours later that said they were done. I go out and see the palm tree was not touched and the front yard was not done. I asked about the trees and he did not have a ladder. That was my first warning. I told him I had a ladder if he needed it. Shame on me for paying the $825 for pruning bushes along my fence line and side, 1/3 of my yard. He said he will finish the work on the 2nd day because he didn't have any more space in is truck for the shrubs. Day 2 Mr. Hoang's brother was sent to complete the job. Four hours later, I get a knock at the door saying he was done. No cleaning, dead plants still in the grounds, weeds everywhere and a muddy walkway. Needless to say I was not happy. After discussing with Mr. Hoang it turns out not only did not have a ladder but no powerwash to boot. So I knew at this point that I was not going to get the services I needed, and decided to cut my losses. Moral of the story is to get all the details in writing with the bid so that negotiations are clear cut. I learned my lesson, I paid over $1300 for 6 hours of labor and a few plants planted. I could have done the pruning myself. They were hired to do the stuff that I, as a 50+ year old woman could not do. Obviously they have made other clients happy and that is why I hired them, But if you plan to hire "California Sustainable Landscaping" get your bid it in writing.

    Brian G.

    Ve and his crew was awesome. I have been quoted with 3 landscaper and so far Ve was the most affordable of them all. They are very organized and easy to communicate with. We love how our backyard turns out. I would definitely recommend them.

She clearly communicated her expertise and when our questions drifted to the actual execution of the work, she would always say "that is for the contractor to decide". While some may think this response abrupt or uncaring, Linda is clear in what she does (design) and does not do (installation). We did end up tweaking some design elements to lower installation cost but overall followed her plan. Even when we asked for different plants after her main design was completed, she helped us out at no additional cost. It was a good learning experience for us and we are happy with the final result.

Linda's design process from beginning to end is extremely effective! It involved friendly communication and relationship-building to ensure we provided her with our plant interests and overall desired garden outcome that helped her with designing our front yard. Linda's expertise in plant knowledge and garden design resulted in a drafted plan that was very detailed and informative. In addition, Linda's contractor referrals helped to seamlessly complete the project process. About six years ago, we had our front yard transitioned from lawn to drought-tolerant plants, but it hadn't been thriving. With Linda's help, we were able to keep the healthier plants and incorporate their place in the yard into Linda's plan. We appreciated that as well as her suggestion to transplant many of the existing plants that didn't really fit the front yard's plan to the backyard area where they can still be enjoyed. Linda's gardening love and enthusiasm is infectious! With our newly completed front yard and improved backyard, I'm looking forward to increasing my own gardening skills and enjoying the therapeutic benefits it can provide.

We could not be happier with the results. Alonso, the owner, was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He took our general ideas and turned them into a cohesive, functional outdoor design that beautifully complements our property while staying within our budget. The scope of the project included building a 14' x 17' patio area with a gazebo, installing a pressure-treated wood retaining wall, constructing a patio bench seat, landscaping our hillside, and building steps to provide safe access up our steep hill. The craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout the project were outstanding. Alonso and his team were consistently prompt and professional. Whenever unexpected issues arose, Alonso was transparent and communicated clearly about the situation, available options, and any associated costs. We greatly appreciated his honesty and commitment to delivering the highest quality work. My wife and I are thrilled with our new outdoor living space and look forward to enjoying it for years to come. Our only regret is that we didn't undertake this project 20 years ago when we first moved into our home. We are grateful for the opportunity to work with Alonso and the entire Golden Hills Landscaping team and would highly recommend them to anyone considering an outdoor improvement project.

We contracted for landscaping work, a redwood pergola, patio cover and a cement patio for just under 30k.

It took me over a year to emotionally recover from the trauma of working with this business as a first major renovation project. --- Long story below As a first major home improvement project (front yard and driveway remodel), I hired a separate professional designer, had 3D renderings made, selected materials in advance, and clearly communicated the desired aesthetic and expected quality to all bidding contractors. Justin's Professional Landscaping had strong early reviews and was responsive at first. I agreed to a contract requiring over 25% upfront payment (which I now regret). Key issues I experienced: - Repeated requests for payment before corresponding work was completed - An uncomfortable incident where the foreman (Justin's father) came to my home on an off-day claiming he hadn't been paid, despite my having already paid Justin. - Poor daily cleanup, resulting in my HOA issuing a notice - Minimal on-site supervision by Justin - Workmanship issues (photos available), including: A unleveled wall that started leaning forward shortly after installation, uneven capstones and a section creating a tripping hazard, poorly graded and uneven pavers, joint sand not installed promptly, and walkway that was not correctly aligned with my front door. By the time these issues surfaced, I had paid about 90% of the project cost, yet the work was incomplete and did not meet reasonable expectations. A revised scope was attempted for the wall only (against my better judgment), but supervision and execution problems continued. After observing additional mistakes, poor practices and lack of control over the crew, I terminated the contract.
