"Landscaper Chris was really great. He and his crew were very communicative and punctual. Yard looks 100% better and the price very reasonable. We’ll definitely call them again when we’re ready for the front yard."

"Exxcell Landscaping turned a baren landscape into a vibrant, livable space I will enjoy for years. I hired Exxcell Landscaping for a turf and irrigation job in my backyard and could not be more pleased with the outcome. Working with Alfredo was a joy. He's an exceptionally pleasant human being to be around. He was knowledgeable about what needed to be done and exercised his considerable expertise to make recommendations and shape the project in ways this layperson could not have contemplated. He listened to what I wanted and suggested enhancements that were hard to reject. I am particularly pleased with the plants he picked out and where he placed them while my kids agree the turf is best thing we've done to the house. I love that my kids have a new, safe, and beautiful play surface to enjoy. I'd trust Excell Landscaping with any landscaping job. I'm currently planning a hardscape lighting project with them and sometimes in the future plan to replace some dull brick with pavers. If I get results similar on future jobs, I'll be immensely pleased."

"Richard is a great guy to work with. I had a backyard grading and drainage issue whenever we get heavy rain here in Tuscon. He came up with the solution. He also extended my paver patio and built planter for me. He is also good at giving ideas if there is something that came up as work progress that you haven’t thought about before. He is also very polite. I will definitely work with him for my any future project. If I had known about Richard and his company two years ago when I moved to Tuscon and was looking for a Landscaper for my backyard, I wouldn’t have all this drainage issue. Thank you Richard and team for your hard work."

"i have gone through many yard and landscape companies over the past two years. Cherry is by far the best. They come when they say they will be coming, they work quickly yet efficiently, and they accomplish all that I ask. Junior and Jessie are a great tribute to this company. Do not hesitate to give them a try. I did and i am pleased."

"Earth First Landscape & Irrigation: (Completed (3) jobs for us! ***** 1) LANDSCAPING (SOD) We planted grass seed when we first bought the house, after the Arizona sun scorched it! We decided to plant sod! I reached out to Robert Sept 30, 2023, for a quote on our backyard to install sod. Robert responded promptly and scheduled our appointment Oct 7,2023 for evaluation and quote. Robert is polite, easy to talk to, professional, prompt and ALWAYS! answered all my questions, text messages, and phone calls. He explained the process of sod installation, how to care for the sod no matter how many times I asked them. :) Robert explained our sod is being grown and was ordered on Oct 10th, 2023. Our project started November 1, 2023 all projects were completed within time frame of 8 days per quote. Our contract was explained in detail of warranty, breakdown of cost, deposits, and all supplies needed to complete jobs. Robert and his team were OUTSTANDING! ON TIME! PROFESSIONAL! I was amazed at the hard work, and teamwork rototilling Arizona, caliche ground! and installing the sod! Robert sprayed liquid fertilizer on the sod in Dec 2023. Robert came over today (3-23-24) to evaluate the lawn, is providing another fertilizer treatment end of May or April 2024. Our lawn looks and feels AMAZING!!!! 2) HIRED SPRINKLER SYSTEM (BACKYARD) Robert and his team installed 2 zone automated sprinkler system. I am highly impressed with this system! This will keep the sod evenly watered on a schedule. Robert showed us all work completed, location of all sprinklers. Robert always responds and addresses our concerns on water coverage on sod. He has stopped by about 3 times total for sprinkler coverage (including today) to adjust sprinklers, replace ones for better water coverage. We love our sprinkler system! 3) HIRED 11X11 PATIO (BACKYARD) I previously hired someone off Facebook! to install 11x11 patio. MISTAKE!!!!! Robert kindly noticed our 11x11 patio was sloped in the middle, on our back yard quote. My husband and I explained our concerns on how disappointed we are with the previous job! Robert asked would you like to add this 11x11 patio to your back yard project? Without hesitation we said YES! Robert and his team carefully removed all the pavers, some pavers were broken, due to prior Facebook person who installed it. Robert and his team prepped the ground, leveled it, and reinstalled my pavers. Our new 11x11 patio is LEVEL! Amazed at all the attention to detail, love the outside border. I am so glad we hired Robert and his team to re do our 11x11 patio. SO! PERFECT!!!!! YEAH!!!!! BONUS: (Pavers left over from patio quote) Robert and his team SUPRISED US! they added border pavers at both sides of the yard, we have gravel on both sides of the house. This is a nice added touch to the yard and keeps the gravel off the grass, as we have 2 dogs! Without hesitation his team raked all the gravel on the sides of the house, and in the front yard, where they walked and brought in supplies. Thank you for all your hard work!"

"Foothill Grounds did a wonderful job of cleaning up my entire yard, triming my bushes and trees. They rebuild a rock wall that has started to crumble and exceeded my expectations. They were professional and always on-time, cleaned-up each day after they finished and before they left for the day. The crew was plesent and worked hard; the money spend was well worth the services we received."

Customers say: Quality work

"After receiving quotes from two other reputable landscaping companies, we decided to go with Blue Ribbon for two reasons: they had the BEST quality "turf" (similar pricing) and they were the only bid that suggested recycling our beautiful red brick (instead of buying expensive artistic pavers or flagstone) and re-design the pattern to a gorgeous Herringbone 45 degree angle AND seal the red brick giving it a fabulous glossy look. I have to tell you, I was nervous after I signed the contract, wrote a check and read a few negative reviews on Google sites but our experience was FANTASTIC! 
Phil quoted us 4-6 weeks since they are in busy season and they came on week 6 (we were in no rush, it is 105 degrees outside!). The job took them a mere 3 days and it came out waaaaay BETTER than I expected/ envisioned! Truly- blown away with the quality of work and craftsmanship from his team! Not to mention, they were all extremely professional and wonderful to work with. Very courteous and polite!
Like any major project, I would highly recommend being home for the initial start and reviewing the contract and a diagram of your expectations with the crew supervisor... our brick was almost re-laid out in the same pattern! They were totally cool about it and made sure it was done exactly as planned.
About a month after the project was completed, we had extreme rainfall in Tucson and noticed a divot in the turf. Phil's team came over the very next day, pulled the turf back, filled the hole and good as new. NOW THAT IS SERVICE!
5 stars because they were awesome all the way- from Phil in Sales to the Crew who made our yard the envy of the neighborhood. I would HIGHLY recommend Blue Ribbon Builders.

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.

Don’t worry if there’s a gap between cutting and planting an ideal branch. You can still cut the perfect branch when you see it. If you can’t get it in a pot or water right away, put it in a zip-top bag in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to finish the process, make a fresh cut.

There are some instances when you can use extra drywall in your garden. Ideally, unused scraps of new drywall are best for amending soil without the concern of additional chemicals or mold. However, drywall with paint, mold, or potential asbestos requires specialized disposal by a professional and should be kept out of your garden.

The primary disadvantages of xeriscaping are the high upfront cost and the significant labor required to establish it. A xeriscaping project can cost between $3,000 and $24,000 on average. Additionally, the resulting landscape will have less of a traditional green appearance, which may not appeal to everyone's personal taste and could potentially narrow your pool of buyers if you decide to sell your home. However, despite these initial drawbacks, the long-term benefits include saving water, time, and money on lawn maintenance.

Yes, you can absolutely transplant bushes instead of removing them completely. The success depends on the size of the bushes, their age, and the transplanting season. Ideally, transplant during the dormant season (late fall or winter). Dig out the entire root system in one piece, fill the new hole with fresh soil and mulch, and water thoroughly after planting.
