"Del Mar Landscaping is a top notch outfit. They do everything from start to finish. On time and the crew is amazing. The job took a total of two weeks and the crew cleaned up every day. Would recommend their services to anyone that wants a professional company that takes pride in their work. We get daily compliments of how great our house now looks."

"I am absolutely thrilled with the exceptional work performed by Vega Landscape on my recent hardscape and landscape project. From the initial consultation with the owner, Nick Vega, to the final reveal, the entire experience was nothing short of outstanding.  Nick's design consultation was incredibly insightful as he took the time to listen to my vision and offered creative and innovative solutions that exceeded my expectations. From beautifully poured concrete, smooth stucco walls, IPE wood fencing, artificial turf installation and modern pavers, the execution was flawless with impeccable craftsmanship. And let's not forget the plants! The plants Nick chose were everything I wanted and more, especially because I love seeing birds, bees and butterflies in my front and back yard. The final result has completely transformed my outdoor space. It is now a stunning and functional extension of my home, perfect for hanging out and enjoying the outdoors. The project significantly increased the curb appeal of my home and created a more private and relaxing outdoor living space. I am incredibly grateful to Vega Landscape for their expertise, professionalism, and dedication to creating such a beautiful and enduring space. I highly recommend Vega Landscape to anyone considering a hardscape or landscape project. They are truly the best in the business. I particularly appreciated Nick's consistent involvement throughout the entire project, from the initial design to the final completion."

"Fernando is the owner and landscape professional. We asked him for a quote to remove and trim many trees and shrubs and landscaping our front yard. The Front yard had become overgrown because our gardener did not have the time or wherewithal to maintain it. Fernando gave us an estimate for the job which was quite high, but he told us he would do excellent and complete work and would maintain by coming twice a month the cut the grass and trim the trees and bushes, so we agreed on that basis. He did a good job of removing the unwanted trees and bushes. He went with us to the nursery to buy new plants and did a good job of planting and fertilizer. Afterward, he came only a few times and then stopped coming or answering my calls. In the few times he came, he charged extra for repairing sprinklers and trimming the large trees, complained he was spending too much time, changed the monthly fee to a per visit fee that increased the price about $20/month, and tried to sell me on additional high-cost services like additional tree removal. He was good on the initial job, and I would recommend him for one-time trimming/removal/landscaping, but I cannot recommend his lack of professionalism, failure to maintain the landscape as he promised, and the high prices he charges."

"Over the past 11 months, we've interviewed and received numerous quotes on our landscaping needs. For example, some of these "fly by night" vendors didn't show up to the appointment, some didn't clarify job scope or felt more like a salesmen, and one asking for down payment before they start a job. ...sound familiar? EcOrganic Landscaping not only provided a competitive bid, I was thoroughly impressed by their quality of work, on-going transparency, and professionalism. Their contracts are clearly defined, and straightforward...no hidden games and/or any sense of fraud. The company is insured and licensed which brings additional comfort. I know we all have many choices when shopping for landscaping needs, but it was very important for me to focus on quality, honesty, professionalism, and reliability. I truly believe EcOrganic Landscaping has met all 4 of my expectations and am entering a monthly maintenance contract with them as well. If you've already invested 5 minutes to read this review, I would recommend investing a few more minutes in giving them a call and making your own assessment. I worked with a gentlemen named Mario. Respectfully, Sam from OC"

"My wife and I recently had the pleasure of working with Lucas from Oasis Turf and Hardscape, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. From start to finish, Lucas provided exceptional service, demonstrating his thorough knowledge of the various turf styles available to suit our specific needs. Lucas took the time to explain the entire process of installing turf at our home, ensuring that we understood each step and making recommendations based on our preferences. His expertise and attention to detail gave us confidence in our decision to move forward with the project. Communication with Lucas and the team at Oasis Turf and Hardscape was outstanding throughout the entire process. We were impressed by their responsiveness and their ability to address any questions or concerns we had promptly. Their professionalism and dedication to customer satisfaction truly set them apart. When it came time for the turf installation, we were equally impressed with the crew's professionalism and punctuality. They arrived on time and efficiently transformed our yard into a beautiful oasis. The crew worked diligently, paying close attention to detail to ensure a flawless installation. The results exceeded our expectations, and we couldn't be happier with our new turf. Overall, our experience with Oasis Turf and Hardscape, specifically with Lucas and the installation crew, was exceptional. Their knowledge, professionalism, and top-notch communication made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. We highly recommend Oasis Turf and Hardscape to anyone in need of turf installation. They are truly experts in their field, and we are grateful for their outstanding workmanship."

"Iâ m so thrilled with my new front and backyard! Steven and his team were incredible. They removed our grass and now our front yard is filled with succulents and geraniums. They also put new turf in our backyard and added some succulents and plants. I love how they do the mock ups so you can see what everything will look like when it is completed. Steven had great recommendations and made my yard beautful. Iâ m going to bring him back this summer to add a few more plants out front. Thank you Steven and Golden Landscape! Youâ ve got a customer for life!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Most experts recommend a quarter-inch layer of compost for best results, and you will need about .77 cubic yards of material per 1,000 square feet. To measure how much compost to use, take the square footage of your yard and multiply it by .77, then divide that number by 1,000.

You should exercise care when deciding how to landscape over a leach field for your septic system. You typically want lightweight materials that won’t damage the drain field’s perforated pipes. When adding plants to the area, select plants with shallow roots, such as grass or flower gardens. Trees with deep roots could damage the pipes in the field.

In most cases, buying plants from a local greenhouse or nursery is well worth the investment, even though they tend to be a bit more expensive than those at a home improvement store. Employees at nurseries are usually well-versed in gardening and understand how the climate in your area affects different plants. They can help you make selections based on your skill level and time commitment to your landscaping, and they can provide detailed care instructions and advice to help keep your plants alive and diagnose and treat issues like pest infestation and illness.

A half inch above ground level is ideal for metal edging. This provides enough depth for the edging to hold in place and enough height to keep in most landscaping materials (like mulch or gravel). If you install edging too high off the ground, it will stand out from your landscaping and pose a tripping risk. If you install it too low, your ground cover won’t stay in place.

Yes, landscaping costs are generally a worthwhile investment that can increase your property value. Landscaping can boost your home's value by up to 30% by improving its curb appeal, which can help it sell faster and for a higher price. Specific projects have a high return on investment (ROI); for example, revamping a front walkway can offer a 100% ROI, while a pristine, well-manicured lawn can deliver an impressive 217% ROI. In addition to the financial returns, you also get to enjoy the improvements, especially with features like an outdoor living area.
