Green Republic Landscapes is a premier landscape design-build firm dedicated to transforming outdoor spaces into stunning, functional environments. We specialize in creating customized landscaping solutions that reflect each client's unique vision and lifestyle. Our comprehensive services include: Garden Design and Installation, Expert Planting, Landscape Lighting, Irrigation Systems, Flagstone & Paver Installation and many other high-quality landscaping services. With extensive industry experience and a passion for excellence, GRL delivers results that consistently exceeds expectations. From the initial consultation to the final reveal, we ensure a smooth , enjoyable process-and an outdoor space you'll love for years to come. Let us bring your dream landscape to life. Minimum project investment: $5,000.00

"Based on the positive reviews of Green Republic on Yelp and Angie's List and our initial interactions with Motti we were excited to have them landscape our front and back yard. Unfortunately, our experience was not as positive as others. The positives were: (1) that the pricing was fair and the bulk of the work was completed very efficiently. The negatives were: (1) despite telling us the work would be done by Green Republic employees all of the work was done by subcontractors with no supervision from Green Republic, (2) though most of the work was done very efficiently the last 10% dragged on for months with lots of promises that it would be finished by a certain date only to be notified of further delays at the last minute (definitely don't pay these guys until the work is complete), and (3) though we were told all the work and plants were warranted when we had issues they didn't warrant their work. Without any supervision the subcontractors did subpar work. A few examples of this were: 1) We picked out pavers and we asked them not to set them until we saw them to confirm they were the correct pavers. Instead we walked out one day to see that they were setting pavers and they were the wrong ones. They told us these were better more expensive pavers which may have been true, but they were the wrong style, so it didn't matter. We asked that they get the pavers we asked for which the subcontractor was not happy about and begrudingly did. 2) The old plants and roots were not properly removed, so within a month we had the old plants growing back through the ground cover and wood chips. 3) Drip lines were installed, but no one bothered to check if the spouts were open or if all the plants actually were receiving water and a new sprinkler controller was installed and never programmed or turned on for two weeks. Rather than provide the instructions to us they threw them out or we would have done it ourselves. 4) They installed decomposed granite, but in one area it was so thin that the first time it rained, the DG was washed away and the soil was exposed. In addition to these issues, they didn't set the pavers in a straight line, we had several plants die, and the sod that was installed developed dead spots within two weeks. We were left to deal with disgruntled sub contractors, Green republic pushed back on all warranty issues providing excuse after excuse as to why it wasn't their problem (even for dead plants that most nurseries would warrant and happily replace). For us Motti and Green Republic were a major headache. We are very disappointed particularly given all the other positive reviews."

"Do not be fooled by the positive reviews. It’s evident they are paying for reviews or having their buddies create fake ones. We had a lackluster experience with Haven Hub. I’m giving them two stars bc the job eventually got done, but I wouldn’t recommend them. Poor communication, project manager changes with no notice, and unprofessionalism made the process frustrating. (I have an endless list of things that went wrong but only 1000 words.) Contractors tried to upsell us under the table for work already in our contract, and the concrete wasn’t poured to spec. Crews didn’t show up for weeks; they left a dirt pile that got us warning from the city. Sprinklers in the park strip were initially promised by the salesman, then left out of his poor drawing. Even when we scheduled a final wrap-up date, they didn’t show. The park strip was never finished, despite many promises to do so. We signed March 5 and didn’t finish until May 29 — nearly three months when it should’ve taken weeks"

"Dee is fantastic! We loved the design Mike came up with for our backyard makeover. Then once construction started we realized we had made choices that needed to be changed. In every case Dee's suggestions (stucco the walls instead of paint, don't use DG next to the pool, run wood fence topper horizontally) turned out to the best. We are so glad we listened to him. Our finished backyard looks like an art installation but one where you can feel comfortable and at home. Now a year later we had them come back for a few tweaks and again Dee's suggestions were the right ones. We are happy we choose G & L and plan to use them again next year when we tackle our front yard."

FAQs for retaining wall installation projects in Van Nuys, CA

Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers. 

When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: 

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.

The cost of a paver patio is $3,800 for a 280-square-foot patio on average. Depending on the patio size, paver material, and design complexity, this cost can range from $2,400 to $7,000 or more.

The size of your patio is a significant factor in the project’s overall cost. If you're building a smaller patio of only 60 square feet, your costs will be closer to $480 to $1,500. If you want a more luxurious 900-square-foot patio, you'll spend closer to $7,200 to $22,500.

A paver patio can last anywhere from 20 to 100 years, depending on the type of pavers and how well you maintain them. 

Travertine pavers are usually the most durable, lasting 100 years or more, with regular maintenance. Concrete brick pavers have a variety of shapes and colors available and typically last 25 to 50 years. Traditional brick pavers have a more classic look, lasting around 20 years with proper maintenance.

Landscaping costs around $3,500 but varies widely from $200 to $14,000. Factors that play a part in your final landscaping price tag include:

  • Location

  • Yard size

  • Project size

  • Materials

  • Land preparation

  • Type of landscaping

Considering so many factors, it’s not surprising that the overall costs can differ. A typical landscaping project is flower bed installation, which averages between $800 and $3,000. However, landscape lighting installation is a higher-end project, with a price tag of $2,000 to $6,000
