Bought a $1000 vase fountain from Waterwise. It was placed in a protected side patio. Within 1-1/2 years the thin ceramic glaze began to peel off exposing the terracotta pot. I contacted Brent "Poncho" to ask what can be done at this point. He stated he would get back to me after I sent pictures, to which I did immediately. I have since made numerous attempts to follow-up with no response from Brent. We've had other fountains (Purchased at Madd Potter) for well over 10 years with no issues. Agreed with another review: Poor customer service and quality. High prices and there are better options in the area. Do yourself a favor and take your business elsewhere! read more

The good: this place has a lot of really cool items--pots, fountains, metal art, and more. The bad: it's extremely overpriced (did I mention overpriced?). I told the rep I found the same fountain at another local nursery for less, though I'd have to wait. I asked if they'd match the price, and he flat-out said no. Instead, he offered to cut delivery from $500 down to $300. Meanwhile, the other nursery only charges $200 for delivery. I'm glad I was wize get it (Waterwize) and wait and go with the better deal. read more

Debbie did a wonderful job listening to our needs, answered questions with patience and offered additional ideas. It all added up to a very positive experience. The large 2.5 acre property offers so much outdoor creative pieces. We are not sure about how fair the prices are but we felt Debbie was credible and trustworthy. Check it out! read more

Fraudulent company!! We bought a $3000 outdoor fireplace from them and there was problems from the beginning. We called the gas company and the gas company said there was a problem with the fire pit itself. Gas company said you have to talk to the manufacturer. We spoke to the representative at WATER WISE, and they will not give any information nor come out to inspect and fix. We live in South Orange County, just 45 minutes away from them! Again folks fraudulent company!! Beware, they'll take your money and will not do nothing. More important gas leaks equals to gas explosions!! Again, FRAUDULENT COMPANY!!! read more

Poor customer service and quality. High prices and there are better options everywhere else.

The BEST place to go for fountains, planters, pots and anything that you consider unusual for your home! Great service and extremely professional!! read more

Waterwise Yard Design & Decor - Absolutely unbelievable fountain in our backyard!! - Home & Garden Near Me - Murrieta, California

DOES NOT HAVE A CONTRACTOR'S LICENSE!!! STAY AWAY! THEY COST ME $20,000+ to fix flooding issues after they RUINED my entire property and it took a year of work to fix it. BBB took away their recommendation and the California Contractor's Licensing Board is currently handling the case to prosecute them for the crime of practicing without a license and additional matters. They tried to hide their crimes by changing their website and putting Poncho in charge and Tavin under him and other criminal activities which won't help them as I have the evidence to give to the CCLB. Everything they say and do is a lie and a crime since they are not allowed to do jobs over $500.00 according to the laws of the State of California, and do not pay the proper taxes or have the proper insurance needed when they wreck your property. read more

They are Friendly, helpful and put the customer first! You can't go wrong choosing Water Wise! Check out their before and after book! Incredible! read more

We just had our backyard done by WaterWise. From the very first meeting we had, Taven was great! You can tell when meeting him that he truly loves his job and wants to design something that you will love. He listened to ideas we had and what we wanted. He took all that, added to it, and came back to us with a design of an amazing yard! Once they started, he was here every day to check on progress and to answer any questions we had. Although Taven is awesome, Lupe and his crew are just as impressive! They arrive on time, make tons of progress, and clean up after themselves every day! They are very professional and easy to work with. They definitely take pride in what they're doing and want to make the client happy. Our yard was done in a quick 3 weeks and is absolutely everything we wanted and more! We would definitely recommend them to anyone! In fact, my parents are getting their front yard done by them next. You know they're good when you recommend them to your parents! read more

My wife and I were looking to redo our landscape. Our home is 3 years old and we still had the same ugly landscape design the builder put in. We were looking to totally overhaul the front yard and finish the back yard to complement our pool. We had a horrible experience with a previous contractor. His workmanship left a lot to be desired. Initially he came off very experienced. But we had cracks in the concrete, overspray on the new grill with the sealer among other disappointments. So we were a little apprehensive with this project. Water Wise came to the rescue! Not only did they do a tremendous job with our yard, Taven and his crew poured new concrete that the old contractor left cracked. They gave us a beautiful drought tolerant yard with artificial grass, concrete walkway, lighting, water saving drip system and more. My wife and I, as well as our bulldogs, love our new yard. We couldn't have asked for more. Taven and his team were a pleasure to work with. No fuss what so ever. They completed our project in 6 days. If you are looking for a landscape contractor, look no more! Seriously, the team from Water Wise will not disappoint. Please visit their showroom too. There are lots of items to choose from. Their artificial grasses are on display along with plants and other items. We even purchased one of their fountains to finish off the project! read more

Thank you. Thank you. My house looks beautiful. Taven was wonderful to work with. His crew was fantastic. My front yard looks awesome. The artificial grass looks great and the plants are gorgeous. I am so happy each time I drive up to my house and see the fantastic job they did. My dogs love their area with the new artificial grass. Thank you Waterwise. You don't even know how much I appreciate it what you did. read more

Saw these guys at my neighbors and asked for a quote once he was done with his consult. Guy didn't even give me a card or even bothered to think about my plan. I wanted a 40 foot wall and 4000 sq of artificial grass. Told me that he doesn't deal with small projects and I overheard him say it's not worth the time or money for something so small. Bad business practice and he didn't even consider I have three other properties I have to update. Overall, thumbs down for not even being open for discussion read more

Working with the team at Water Wise has been an incredibly easy and pleasant experience! The team Poncho, Taven, Lupe and others really take great pride in satisfying the client and achieving the desired aesthetic look. Poncho and Taven met our creative Mediterranean look with exactly what we were looking for!! The team everyday left our place clean and neat and were hard workers. Best professional team! Thank you!! read more

I wanted to use this company, amazing work. when I looked online to see if they hold a California contractors license because of liability issues, it did not show up but great job anyhow.... keep up the landscaping read more

I can't say enough positive things about Taven and his crew. He worked with us every step of the way on our front yard remodel. I gave Taven some general ideas of what we wanted, and he added his expertise to make out yard into a very clean, yet simple masterpiece. Taven did not bat an eye when we wanted to make small changes or add to the project. His main goal is to make sure we were happy in the end. The yard turned out even better than expected, and we have had nothing but compliments since the job was done. I definitely recommend Water Wise for your next yard remodel! read more

We visited Waterwise Yard Design today for the first time and were very pleased with the products carried, and how modern to rustic the options were. There are some very cool and interesting metal worked creatures that I'd like...I think we'll grab one of the "wind articulated" peacocks next trip as they are so pretty and will compliment the pool. Thanks for the ideas Taven, we have some homework to do but we will be back certainly as you don't carry the average Lowe's or Home Depot stuff. Thanks for the curtailed tour, it was a pleasure meeting you. Kyle read more

Visited their crazy retail store with my daughter and grands yesterday for the first time. I'm hooked! Taven has a great eye for the unusual but not junk. His pots are beautiful, especially his succulent displays. I succumbed to the call of a southwestern style howling coyote which has almost a contemporary sculptural quality-quite unlike most of those around. She is heading to the Tucson area shortly so if I live in that area and I'm buying in SoCal, you KNOW there has to be something very special about his inventory. If you are looking for unusual gifts or items for your home or garden you just must make this drive. These guys couldn't be nicer. Check out the "pipe and gauges" lights/chargers in the office. Totally unlike anything I've ever seen before! read more

We found water wise because of their giant dinosaur statues, when we were on our way to San Diego. The water wise location in murrieta is so much fun to explore, they have so many amazing items. We bought a large raptor and a statue of the virgin Mary. We also fell in love with their palapa, built by the Palapa Guy, so we ordered a palapa and had it installed. Water wise was there for us every step of the way. Great company, we will definitely be buying more from them in the future read more

Even though I did not use their service, I was impressed with their facility. Probably anything you can think of to put in your yard, they have. I had Tavin come out and give me a quote on installing turf and rock in my front yard. He was prompt, professional and very personable. read more

Wow!!!! What can I say except Taven, Lupe and his crew are the best. I truly feel like they are family to me and my husband . We asked Taven and his crew to return for the secondary phase of lighting and additional planting in our yard that was initially completed by Water Wise in 2015. It turned out exceptional and our front and backyards are more beautiful than we even imagined. Taven has such a vision with his 30-plus years of landscaping experience and sincerely cares about his clients and wants nothing more than them being happy with his work. Thanks again, Water Wise, Taven, Lupe, Pancho and all involved with this awesome company! read more

Great place to look for garden and yard art. Poncho (the owner) is a great guy, very helpful and accommodating. Definitely would return in the future. read more

I cannot rate this company high enough! From start to finish of designing and landscaping our front yard, they were so amazing! Professional. Friendly! Customer service is off the hook. They are very honest and trust worthy, which is a rare find! I received 4 other estimates that were a little cheaper, however the others could not provide the references, the quality or the competence of WaterWise! Taven, you are AMAZING!! read more

This place is awesome. Such a wide variety of yard decorations, fountains and furniture, that you can't find in a large box retail outlet. Locally owned and managed. If you're any place near Murietta, head over to Water Wise. read more

We just recently had our backyard redone by Tavin and his crew at WaterWise. It is the best thing we could have done to improve the quality of our new home. I would do it again in a minute. The work they did on the turf, concrete, plant, and rock were all top notch. Thank you WaterWise. read more

My husband and I just went here and purchased a fountain for our backyard... This is one of the coolest stores/garden centers ever... And one of the prettiest places in Murrieta... It is absolutely beautiful and you can see the love and care the owners put into everything they do there. The care that the owner gave us was very comforting and made us feel at home, and we were just buying a small fountain! The feeling of peace and tranquility just strolling through the gardens is worth the visit... I would highly recommend them.... read more

I recently visited "Water Wise" to look at their selection of landscaping materials...After seeing all the rave reviews about the company, I thought why not...While I was looking at decorative rock a gentleman approached me and ask what I was looking for...I told him I was looking to landscape my front yard and was in need of decorative rock, decor, turf, retaining wall and etc. and was also looking for a landscaper to do the job...His response was that they were booked for the year and that the rock I was looking at was very expensive (must not look like I can afford it) and that I should try two other supply companies (we will leave unnamed) who's materials are less expensive...Anyway, just my experience with the company. read more

Brent and his crew did a great job on our backyard. They were on time, worked efficiently, and finished ahead of schedule. Plus the price was very reasonable. We are happy with our decision to go with Water Wise Landscape. read more

Wonderful place to shop for garden art. We got 3 beautiful pieces for less than 1 piece quoted at a Front Street shop. If you need garden art in Temecula this is the place to go. read more

A few weeks back we visited Water Wise just to see what it was all about. I have lived in Temecula since 1984 and had visited prior to the new owners taking over about 2 years ago. When we walked onto their property all I can say is OMG it was like visiting Disneyland with all the amazing things they have there. We had been putting off redoing our yard for the past few years and our next door neighbor hired a contractor from another company to do their yard. So glad we ended up going with Water Wise. The neighbors yard is not that great. Let me just tell you when we went to Water Wise we met Taven and Poncho, wow talk about amazing customer service and awesome welcome...we already felt like part of the family just from that. We spoke to Taven and my husband had done up a design of what we wanted our front yard to look like. Can I say another OMG Taven totally delivered and the end result is now our yard looks like Disneyland...we have had more people stop by and take photos and just stand there and gawk at our front yard. Taven's crew were so great to work with, he only hires the best, and they kept everything clean on a daily basis. The whole company is fantastic and the customer service they provide is 100%++++ AAAAAA service. I would never use anyone else around when it comes to my yard, on any home I own now or in the future. Thank you so much Taven and everyone on your team for the most spectacular job ever!!! Anyone that is doing research or wanting to redo their yard should only be working with WATER WISE!!! read more

Wow! We met Taven a year ago and had him landscape our residence in Wine Country. Not only did he and Lupe do an amazing job transforming our property but an entire year later he returned to our property to help us with some issues we were having (homeowner error). Taven's commitment to customer service is unbelievable! He resolved our issues and even gave us a lesson on pruning and general yard maintenance. What a wonderful and sincere man and such a pleasure to do business with. We can recommend Water Wise without exception! You will be so happy you called them! read more

Very impressed with the personal attention Taven takes with his customers. We were looking for some special materials for a project in our back yard and he went out of his way to find just what we needed. read more
