"Jose and his crew were excellent in preparing and executing my landscaping project for both the front and rear yard. They completed the project within three days that for other contractors would have needed additional time. I was so happy with their work that I requested Jose assistance on another house project. The crew was very polite and provide good information on how to properly maintain the various plants, ground cover and grass that was installed. I would strongly recommend this landscaping contractor."

"My husband and I have been thinking for several months to get convert our backyard to a drought tolerant landscape. We want to lower our water bill as much as possible and revamp our yard and get it ready for summer. We decided to hire Motti because we felt he gave us the best presentation of ideas for the yard and his background knowledge of landscaping. We had our grass ripped off completely and remove very old sprinklers. The crew planted about 50 California Native and desert type plants with a new irrigation and removal of a Yucca type tree, with stump and roots. DG and rocks were also installed. Overall the project came out great. We are happy and will call Motti for our next project (Front yard)."

"We wanted our backyard to host guests and the rest with a natural touch. Josef helped us come up with a mix of paver patio and turf. The design worked out better than we thought, making the space look bigger. His team handled the grading and laid a proper base under both sections. The turf drains well, and the pavers stay cool even in the heat. Everything is solid, ad we now use that part of the yard every weekend."

"This was the first time i undertook such an extensive project: new concrete driveway, artificial turf install, stucco wall , iron fences and motorized gate, drip irrigation, spotlights, new plantings. All the work was completed on time with utmost professionalism from Yosi and his very capable crews. Everything was upfront and there were never any surprises. Needless to say we are all extremely happy with the beautiful results. I'm already talking to Yosi about my next project!"

"I am absolutely thrilled with the outstanding job Encore Builders did on transforming my front yard! From the moment I contacted them for an estimate, the experience was top-notch. I had reached out to several companies for quotes, and Encore Builders not only provided the most competitive estimate but blew away the competition with their professionalism and friendliness. They quoted me a whopping 40% less than 10 other companies I had contacted. Their attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident from the start. The team at Encore Builders was an absolute pleasure to work with. They were punctual, efficient, and went above and beyond to ensure the entire process was smooth. The paving and turf job exceeded my expectations - see photos I have included. I cannot recommend Encore Builders enough. If you're looking for a reliable, professional, and budget-friendly option for your landscaping needs, look no further. Encore Builders is the way to go! Thank you Brandon and Oz and the whole crew!!!!!!"

"I have had services through this company for over 12 years now. They’ve already provided excellent service, been loyal, and show up to get the job done. They also were able to landscape my front and backyard and do additional services beyond lawn maintenance. Easy to communicate with, and I am able to express what I would like done and they certainly deliver. They are knowledgeable about not only lawn service, but plantings and their sustainability for the valley heat. A definite recommendation!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Since you’ll likely be digging a trench to install your yard drainage system, this is a good time to complete other tasks that involve digging up your yard, including: Sprinkler system installation Lawn reseeding Regrading your yard Redesigning your landscaping If your drain is under a walkway or driveway, your contractor must also remove those materials. This is a great time to consider upgrading your hardscaping features, especially if they’re nearing the end of their life span.

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.

The truth is, there really is no such thing as a 100% deer-proof plant. Deer will decimate even the prickliest flora if they’re hungry enough. However, there are plenty of beautiful plants that deer don’t necessarily enjoy. These include thistles, wisteria vines, sword ferns, and beautyberries.

Deer are herbivores, and they love vegetable gardens as much as Peter Rabbit. If you don’t want to fence in your entire property, consider creating an attractive raised-bed veggie garden with mesh fencing around it to keep out deer and other critters.

A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.

You should avoid planting grass, shrubs, plants, and trees in freezing temperatures, as the ground can get frozen and become too hard for proper root growth. It’s best to plant in the fall to allow your plants to establish root systems before the first frost. Landscaping when the average temperature in your area is between 50 and 60 degrees will usually deliver the best results.
