Reviews of local pros in Encinitas, California

Oh my goodness I cannot say enough good things:) Bradley Lanscaping has been helping me with evolving our landscape for more than two years. Now, I have neighbors and passersby complimenting their work all of the time. Aside from the finished product, their workers are personable, professional and quite honestly a pleasure. A specific shoutout to Mike for the introduction and my start with Bradley, Noel for all of the tree trimming and hole digging and Josiah who I’ve had the pleaseure of working with most recently and look forward to continuing to do so. Bradley Landacaping, keep doing you…you guys are killing it!

Looks like we can't add a second five-star review, but last week when a tree came down in a storm, Mike had a crew here within an hour to get our driveway unblocked. Couldn't ask for better.

They installed all of the plantings, hardscape, irrigation, and landscape lighting in a complex set of gardens for us several years ago. Since then, they've done all the heavy maintenance that we can't do ourselves. Bradley Landscape has been consistently great to work with.

Having been in the palm tree nursery business since 1985, I've had the opportunity to work with many landscape contractors on small up to very large projects. It is a pleasure to work with a company as professional and well trained as Bradley Landscape. The owner, Mike Albo, is very hands-on in all aspects of landscape construction, installation, and maintenance, including the highest level of artistic tree trimming. The staff is well-trained in the trimming of small bushes to large specimen trees. Bradley Landscape is always my first recommendation to my clients for a well manicured landscape.

We first hired Bradley during a major landscaping renovation project 5+ years ago and have continued with them as our weekly maintenance crew ever since. We have been pleased with the level of service, attention to detail and responsiveness over the years. Highly recommend.

The Bradley crew are all great to work with. From initial vision of the landscape project to the continued maintenance of the finished design, I have been impressed with their attention to detail. Very happy client. Thank you Bradley Landscape Development!

Bradley landscaping is an excellent company to hire. They are responsive, professional, know what they are doing on a project without taking short cuts. Their crews are friendly and never leave a mess to clean up afterwards. They complete projects the right way so that it doesn't have to be re- done or fixed later. Excellent reliable firm

After two prior landscape companies that started off strong and drifted to mediocre, we are finally proud of our property every week. Bradley completely redid our landscaping and was collaborative and transparent in our replanting. Bradley’s team showed up when promised and even the owner Mike was here planting and directing his team…and was a sweaty mess in doing so! He sets a real example and his guys are hard workers.

I am a high end builder, in La Jolla, Rancho Santa Fe, Del Mar, and North County. I have been using Bradley Landscape for 25 years for almost all of my projects. They have a great team of people, that make the job go smoothly, from Installation, invoicing, maintenance, warranty, and follow-up.
Not only do they have the manpower to handle very large projects, they also are able to handle much smaller projects at the same time.
The company got even better a couple years ago when Brad sold it to Mike Albo. Mike is a young, knowledgeable, and energetic hands on owner. He is responsive to calls, questions, and problem solving. He brings a great energy to the company, is always smiling, and his attitude is that nothing is a problem that can't be solved.

Bradley Landscape expanded our backyard patio, moved irrigation, replanted sod and organized the sealing of the pavers so that the new pavers better matched the existing patio pavers. One of the things about working with Mike, is that he gave me a very accurate estimate of the cost of our project and time line so that we knew exactly what we could expect. The patio looks fantastic and has made our backyard so much useable. Mike uses modern design tools to illustrate the project. His team is professional, on time and hard working. Thank you Bradley Landscape!

Mike Albo and his great crew installed all our hardscape and landscape including irrigation and lighting during a major remodel of our home in San Clemente. There were many complicated elements to the design and construction and all of it came out excellent. All his crew were really great to work with, very reliable, and hard workers. Right up to the very end of the project, they were easy to reach and responsive to come back when needed to be sure everything was to our satisfaction. We will definitely use them again for any hardscape/landscape project.

Finding a top notch and trustworthy landscape company that doesn't try to take on too many jobs and then disappear for days is hard to come by. Everyone on the Bradley Landscape team has been amazing from the beginning till the end. My landscaping project turned out amazing and was completed very quickly without a missed day and they stand by everything they do without question. I even had an unrelated watermain break and they had a team out the next morning and my water was back on within hours. That was truly above and beyond. I will definitely use Bradley for all of my landscaping needs in the future.

Bradley Landscape (Mike) was recommended to us by our builder at the conclusion of a total remodel in 2022.Mike was a pleasure to work with to build both landscape and hardscape plans as well as selecting plants and other materials .The actual work was completed on time and on budget, about the only thing over the course of the entire project, haha!!We have kept Bradley on for our weekly maintenance and have been very happy. I have had a couple different foremen and they do a good job checking in to make sure I’m happy and if there’s anything I want different or done. Thanks Mike and crew!

The Bradley Landscape crews are very good at garden development and maintenance.

They are punctual, reliable, polite, caring and professional.

Each gardener has very broad general knowledge and there are specialists that enable Bradley to provide all service and development needs.

Crew members and supervisors are cross-trained so there is redundancy and broad familiarity with our property.

What sets Bradley Landscape apart is the caliber of the people who work with us including those who provide administrative support "behind the scenes".

It makes a difference that all seem happy to work for such a fine company that looks out for them.

We worked together throughout COVID and never did our service suffer in spite of the complexity involved in managing a labor intensive business.

We are very pleased with Bradley Landscape and look forward to working with them in the future.

Everyone we have worked with at Bradley Landscaping is a true professional. Our weekly maintenance crew is well trained, trustworthy and they keep our yard in beautiful shape. They go beyond basic maintenance by identifying and resolving issues on their own. Mike Albo (owner) is extremely easy to communicate with and has helped us achieve exactly what we wanted with our outdoor space. The people at Bradley seem to enjoy working together and have a great respect for the company. It's a pleasure to see them every week.

Mike and the Bradley Landscape crew have been fantastic!! From the magnificent new stone walls, to the large olive trees craned in to sit poolside, the citrus, fruit and fig trees, nuts, veggie beds, the new irrigation and well hook up....and the regular thoughtful maintenance crew.... our Rancho Santa Fe home looks incredible and has achieved what Theresa Clark set out for this beautiful new home to be with you all over the last year. love the follow up, attention to detail, and the care you all put in!

Bradley Landscaping (Mike Albo) was recommended to us by our landscape architect for our major outdoor renovation involving a pool, driveway, a bunch of hardscape, and lots of plantings. It was a big project, and they did a great job overall. Communication was excellent throughout the project and they were quick to address and correct any issues as they arose, and they stayed on budget as well. We were very happy we went with them.

The team at Bradley Landscape Development has been so great to work with. Conversations are always productive, and they bring great ideas to the table while also being super open to collaboration. On top of that, they're just a genuinely great people—positive, strategic, with the hunger to be the best at what they do!

Hard to believe the relationship with a landscape company could be so meaningful. The journey began when Bradley Landscape accepted the challenge of full property landscape at our previous home built in 1986. In 2017, we moved into a new home one block up the street and, yes, we partnered with Bradley Landscape once again. The installation was accomplished like clockwork and their weekly full-maintenance for the last five years has been flawless. Not a day goes by without a passerby commenting about the beauty of the property.

Thank you, Mike, Rebecca, Abi and staff, for helping make our La Jolla experience such a trouble-free pleasure.

I contacted Bradley Landscape requesting a design and execution of a patio landscaping project. I clarified that my budget should not exceed $30,000. The person hired by Bradley Landscape completed the design assuring me that the cost will be within my budget or possibly slightly above and few weeks later Bradley Landscape provided their final quote for over $87,000! The company and the designer refuse to refund my downpayment. Astounding.

We got lucky. After receiving a recommendation from our neighbor, we hired C & H Gardens to redesign our landscaping, front and back, including building retaining walls and the irrigation system. Kacen and his team were friendly, always on time, worked hard, cleaned up after themselves, and finished ahead of schedule. The end result is beautiful, exceeding our expectations. Kacen and C & H Gardens deserve a 5+ rating.

Excellent landscaping solutions and Kent is awesome to work with?
