Best Landscapings in Phoenix, AZ

Got a quote to cut back an over grown Palo Verde tree.
He and his crew show up as promised and not only fixed the tree but cleaned up the the rest of the yard as well. They went above and beyond what was expected.

I asked yelp for help getting a quote.  This company responded.  They were always very responsive to messages.  
They ended up not coming because a truck needed repairs.  However the fact that they messaged me and let me know... was a big plus in my book.  
So this review is of their business practices... and not of their actual work.  
Responsive, and cares about customers time.

Wish there were more stars.  Urban Oasis was the most responsive landscaper I called for a quote and am so glad I did.  Austin was always attentive to our needs.  I cannot say enough good things about this company.  They kept us in the loop the entire time and continually followed up and addressed our needs and/or concerns.  What great customer service and professionalism.  I'm so glad we found them.  Thanks Austin.

The short version is that I cannot recommend them.  The longer version is pretty long, but I'll try to control it.

Initially their service was thorough.  Yes, they missed some things, but they would get them the next visit.  But that's as good as it got.  There were at least two crew shake-ups in the ~8 months we used them, and each time the service declined.  Their original crew was definitely the best, but that only lasted about 2 months.

What they did, they did well.  Trimming and shaping bushes, edging ground cover (usually), cutting low-hanging branches.  Though sometimes you had to TELL them to do it.  They didn't seem to recognize what needed to be done, even after walking the property and building into the contract the agreed upon requirements. If you didn't instruct them ahead of time it may or may not be accomplished.  And even if you did tell them (e.g. please get that weed/plant in the rose bush) it wasn't a guarantee they would actually do it.  I tried sending them photos, I tried making lists (which was the most successful approach, but ironically they asked me to stop with the lists).  But even they acknowledged that several things I was complaining about should have been automatic; I shouldn't have had to say anything, it just should have been done.  The management/supervisors agreed with me!  But often it wasn't automatic.

About the only thing that was consistent was they used to blowers to clean debris from the yard.  Sometimes it seemed that was all they did.

They didn't remove dead plants that were obviously dead even after I pointed them out.  They missed obvious weeds.  On more than one occasion they cut a dripper which I then had to fix when I discovered I had a fountain instead of a drip head (they would have fixed it if I waited long enough, but I wasn't willing to have my system off for several days until someone could drop by). They would stop edging the ground cover part-way through (i.e. you could see where they stopped).  Management agreed with me that was unacceptable.

As I said before, they handled specific repairs very well.  They weren't cheap, but the pricing was reasonable.  They even reduced the pricing once because the job wasn't as hard as I expected.  So bonus points for that.

I think if you have a conventional lawn, and some trees and shrubs, you'll probably be fine.  If you have anything out of the ordinary they don't seem to know what to do, or at least the crews that do the actual work don't.  I was paying a lot of money for incomplete work.

They got tired of my complaints about the time I got tired of complaining.  They fired me first, but I was about to do the same to them.  I was going to grant one last chance, mostly because I didn't want to have to find someone else.  Interviewing landscapers is a pain.  Just in time for the ground cover to need to be cut back...

fast service, very good job did more than contracted will be coming monthly or so for sure. very reasonable price for the quality work they did was outstanding will be my landscaper for as long as he is doing landscaping.

James was the only company able to get me a green lawn in all seasons. I'm not sure if it's because of his skilled help, or if it's because of the fertilizing system he installed for us, but either way we are thrilled.

They also adjust my watering depending on the time of year, and check my sprinklers on occasion to make sure my grass is getting evenly watered. Great service!

Update: James just finished my landscape out my new house, and wow! We did inground trampoline that the kids absolutely love. All the tree lights match the pool lights and it looks like a night club in our yard. We also did in ground speakers and the sound matched the lights, like a night club.

We could not be happier with the results! Thank you James and team!

We have hired Ko's to do our yard twice a month. They have been at our home 3 times already and every time they have done an amazing job. They are very thorough and professional all at a great price.

A landscaper that didn't cut the grass....
Yes. We hired Meza landscaping and actually had to ask them to come back to cut the yard.  When we hired them for the job we asked them to trim the trees and bushes, as well as kill the weeds along with the normal things included with a service. They did a fantastic job trimming the trees and then when they were leaving I noticed the yard had not been cut and the weeds were not treated.  The man delivered a nice attitude (pun intended) when he had to come back and finish the job.

Apparently they have too much business to be taking on any more.  I requested an appointment to bid out my yard, Jose responded twice the final time asking for my address to schedule a time.  I replied with requested information and no further contact from him.  That was 6 days ago.  I'm guessing it just fell through the cracks but maybe if you are too busy to schedule appointments its time for some administrative assistance. Hopefully in the future you will be better about communication with new potential customers.

I never write Yelp reviews... but I was exceptionally pleased with this experience. They quoted me a super affordable rate to help us out with cleaning out yard, we haven't been able to do it for a handful of months due to crazy work schedules. They did the work and a little more than I expected and I was very pleased with the results. I would definitely re-hire them for maintenance and in the future, as well as future yard projects... and recommend them to the neighbors (and to you)!

I dont have the best before pics because it was a little worse than the picture, but here's what I have as comparison.

Wonderful service! I reached out to them and they were able help me get a design I loved! Great recommendation from their team and knowledgeable! I got pavers done with a built in bbq. So glad we got in touch with Patio Pros Landscape and Design. We are also so excited to show our family the new backyard! I would recommend them if you're looking for a great back yard transformation, as we started with just dirt yard!

We had a number of different landscape companies come in to give quotes for our backyard. Borders and Beyond came in the most reasonable and came up with a better design idea than anyone else. They were in and out pretty quickly and very respectful. They didn't leave a mess or trash around. We also got to pick the plants we wanted within the package so we got just what we wanted! We love our backyard so much! I would recommend checking them out first!

Absolutely love these guys! They were really responsive and got my credenza to me in perfect condition. Would definitely use again for future furniture pickups

It started out great!  I requested several quotes on clean-up landscaping and Jake was extremely quick to respond.  He quoted me a fair price and I accepted.  

We scheduled for last Wednesday and he texted me saying he had a blow-out and asked if we could reschedule for Saturday.  Although I was hosting an event that day and not able to meet him at the property, I installed Venmo so I could send him money after receiving pictures of the cleaned-up landscaping.  On Saturday, he had another vehicle issue and asked if we could reschedule for Monday.  

Monday came and gone - no contact, no nothing.  So... time to move on to another landscaper!

After going through multiple landscaping companies these guys are the best.  Their work is high quality and they have been extremely responsive to our needs.  We couldn't be happier.

Valley Vista Landscaping redesigned our backyard this last month. They came to the house talked to us about our ideas and gave their professional input on what would work and what might need to be tweaked. They gave us an estimate in a timely manner along with suggestions to keep the cost down by using different materials where possible. They set a day the work would start and gave us an idea when they thought the work should be finished. Valley Vista Landscaping was honest, prompt, friendly, cleaned up after them selves and professional. We will use them in the future and would recommend them to others.

DO NOT HIRE THESE PEOPLE. I made a huge mistake by giving them a deposit to grade my backyard and take out my tree. They asked me to Venmo them $1500 to get a bobcat to my house which they never came back with. I have been begging for a refund and just get false promises of them showing back up.

These people have stolen my money and won't refund me for not coming back to do the work. I feel stupid for having sent them money that I worked so hard for to get nothing in return.

Huge mistake sending them any money and I hope you take caution because to this.

Below is the plants they took out that cost me $1500 due to me sending money too early. They promised to also take out the tree, flatten the dirt, and take out the rocks. All of which didn't happen. I'm very sad to have lost the money I paid.

I would not recommend this company to do anything remotely related to landscaping and sprinklers. After spending $5000 to $6000 with them on basic grass and a sprinkler system I now have to spend $8200 to remove and replace their horrible work. STAY CLEAR
