Del Mar Landscaping Company

Would use this contractor in aa heartbeat. Thomas D Bennett

Doug and his team did an awesome job on this project, which was resurfacing the driveway and install steps, a plantar and a retaining wall. His pricing is very reasonable. He was responsive to our requests. His team was very helpful and friendly and listened to all our questions and instructions. The project was completed in a timely manner. Final project turned out great!"

Doug and his crew did a fantastic job installing turf in my front and backyard. They got it done in 1 day and it looks amazing. Prices are very reasonable as well. As a realtor I will recommend him to my clients and would use him again.

We hired Doug to build a wall to enclose our front yard and update the fence in our backyard. The project has gone on without any issues. All of our neighbors are very impressed with the work. His crew is friendly, helpful, and very professional. Doug comes by to monitor progress, check in with his team, and make sure we are pleased with the progress. We've even added additional work to the scope and intend to use him for more projects in the future.

As our project nears completion, I wanted to express how impressed we have been with the quality of service through Del Mar Landscape. After 30 years, we completely reconfigured our front yard with a low maintenance/ water usage design. New lighting, porch tiles, and walkways were incorporated. Our backyard has new lighting, a fire pit, new pergolas, and a new walkway. The transformation has been amazing, and we continually receive compliments from our neighbors. This success is due to the dedication and talent from Doug and his team. No matter how busy Doug may be, he continually contacts us by phone or with in-person visits to review the project and to provide updates. Any call to him is immediately answered. Doug is very relaxed and supportive in addressing changes/requests identified as the project moves forward. Most importantly, he has an excellent team of workers doing the job. They arrive early each day and diligently work to advance each stage of the project. They are highly personable and communicative as they work throughout each day. They ask for input to assure they are meeting our needs and will suggest ways to address design changes. In addition, they assure the area is clean and accessible before leaving for the day. As a result, I would highly recommend Del Mar Landscape for any future landscaping needs.

We hired Del Mar Landscape based on reviews and a positive interview with Doug. We had high hopes that this project would go smoothly and with the professionalism that Doug promised. We should have known from the first day when the crew was supposed to start and no one showed up.... Doug only showed up on days when he wanted money. He never came on any other days to check on progress. Doug was not happy that we wanted stacked stone patio pillars and BBQ island. He said we changed our mind, even though we had made it a point from the very beginning that this was what we wanted, even when he kept wanting to do something else. The way our contract was written up, he didnt account for the labor of doing the stone and this caused him to get upset with us. The bbq island counter was cracked and when we pointed it out, we were told that thats what happens sometimes. It has gotten considerably worse in the last eight months since the project was finished. The flower bed/grass cement border was measured incorrectly and now we have an unfinished and conspicuously patched border. When we ask if that could be fixed we were told that a whole new batch of cement would have to be ordered and that was just too much work and expense. We were made to feel like all these mistakes/flaws in workmanship were our fault. These are only a few of the things that have gone wrong and have led to our disappointment in hiring Del Mar Landscape. I am not sure what we did to not receive the same excellent service and workmanship that everyone else who has written a review got. We didnt change our mind, complain or interfere with the project. When Doug came by for his final payment, he couldnt even be bothered to come outside to inspect the finished project.

From the top we want to say how thrilled we are with our landscape project. This was a complex and lengthy project, mostly due to the enormous amount of rain we had this past season. Our entire yard was completely renovated â front, back and both sides. It included taking out a side hill along the house and grading a hill in our front yard to accomplish a complex paver design layout. Dougâ s crew did everything from building walls, pavers, stone caps, stacked stone pillars & siding, 2 water features, firepit, plants, irrigation, drains, artificial turf, etc. We love our new outdoor living space and so does our neighbors â who regularly comment as they pass by on walks. Doug was professional, reasonable and very timely with his responsiveness. He stayed in touch throughout the project â his crew was extremely capable and courteous. Multiple neighbors commented on how nice the crew was. The onsite project leader was very experienced and had a firm grasp on all parts of the project. He was knowledgeable and clearly wanted to make us happy and he accomplished that. As with any major construction project there will always be some frustrations, whether it is with the weather not cooperating or with discovery of needed changes during the demo and construction process. These issues were dealt with professionally â and in the end, Doug never forgot who the customer was. We utilized a designer for our process (which Doug recommended). Del Mar Landscaping crew was able to execute the vision of the design even as changes and challenges came up. We are very pleased with the hard work and are very satisfied customers!

Doug, Rolando, and the rest of the team are absolutely outstanding. Finding a good contractor can really be a c****shoot sometimes, but I hit the jackpot with Del Mar Landscape for my back patio replacement. Everyone was very efficient, professional, courteous, communicative, respectful, and meticulous. They take pride in their work, work well as a team, and the process and fabulous end product show it! I joked that I would sit in my garden to admire the patio instead of the other way around.

There awesome!!!!

The work was done on schedule and within budget with top notch performance. Hard to beat! We will use them again for a couple of other projects that we have planned.
