All reviews for Droughtscape LA

These guys are awesome!

Good people who do good work.

Fantastic service. Super knowledgeable and the best in the landscaping business

Great company, Cody and Brandon took excellent care of me!

Droughtscape was great! Would recommend them to anyone who needs help with landscaping.

I do not have the luxury of owning a home for this lovely company to beautify, but there Instagram before or afters photos motivate me to work hard to own my home.

They do an amazing job! Well worth it. Definitely the best around - really high quality work and great people too. I recommend.

They transformed my dream into something tangible. I envisioned a transformation for my yard, and they went above and beyond what I hoped for. Each minor aspect was flawless!

I just finished a project with this company for a narrow front yard project at our hillside home in LA. They helped me install new erosion support redwood planters with hidden rail ties (looks amazing!) and also leveled the ground down 7 inches to help us make maximum use of the narrow area for a patio / and laid decomposed granite down. Would recommend and look forward to work with these guys again! Also very easy invoice payment system. Thanks guys!

I needed interlocking paver tiles installed down by the street. This is perhaps the most dedicated team of workers I've ever seen. They bend over backwards (and then some) to make sure everything is as perfect as possible. Any underground surprises they ran into, roots, boulders, etc. were handled and at no extra charge. They even repaired my broken water meter cover and reinstalled it. Again, at no additional charge. I can't say enough about these guys. So glad I chose them!

I appreciate Droughtscape's professionalism and quality of work. I had a small job that Droughtscape gave the same care as a large project and they were responsive and willing to return to make needed corrections. I give Droughtscape my highest recommendation.

I rarely, if ever, write a review but for Western Pacific I just have to.

Where to begin, from the onset Cody came and gave us an estimate. He was professional, thorough, and transparent from day 1. Made it easy to decide on choosing WPL.

The team communicated clearly, kept us updated on timelines for work to begin and their accounting, billing and invoicing was super easy and a pleasure to deal with.

Once the work began, it was clear that after day 1 they were special. Anthony and his crew were thoughtful, careful, and showed the utmost professionalism. They cared for my mother's home as if it was their own and some. They left the premises pristine every evening after doing a full days work- was better than when they began that day! They included us in all the decisions, explained the process, showed us updates. All around a true pleasure to watch them work and transform my mothers front yard and garden into a beautiful and self-sustaining masterpiece.

These guys are hands down the best; best service, best execution, best work, best final job, and best continued follow up!

Will use them for any, and all, work that needs to be done on my home and will recommend them to everyone I know.

10 stars!

Their series of free drought-scape videos is VERY professional and thoughtful. I've not yet ventured into re-landscaping my yard because of budget issues, but with this background in my pocket, I'll be sure to make some excellent decisions, both in quality and cost. Can't say enough about how much I appreciate their forthright, honest video series.

Cody was just here for our initial assessment of redoing our front landscape, and we were impressed: very personable, thorough, knowledgeable, offered many suggestions and options, no pressure, no upsell. We got a great feeling and are anxious to see how things proceed. So far, 5 stars!

Droughtscape’s website and newsletters helped me make the changes necessary to get my garden through the parched long summer of 22, and were also there with water-storing inspiration during the following spring deluge. They are a wonderful team and I look forward to working with them someday.

If you are considering an upgrade or complete yard makeover I would look no further than Droughtscape. My wife and I drew up a simple plan of what we wanted and in just a matter of days Cody gave us a price which we accepted, had a preliminary walk through with his production crew and supervisors, and he gave us a start date all within two weeks of filling out their online questionnaire. We were good to go.

From there, our project could have been a model for how construction projects should progress. Miguel and his workers diligently began extensive excavation to remove an existing turf lawn, an existing concrete patio, and other hardscape elements not part of our finished plan. I had no idea how much material required removal in preparation for extensive new DG paths, a pretty large (850 sq. ft.) paver patio, and two very small patches of new turf we installed mostly for our dog. Hundreds of wheelbarrow loads were moved, at least four dumpster loads, many tree roots that were close to the surface, and the old concrete. All the work was done in the extreme heat of July and August by 4-6 workers every day of the week but Sunday. It was brutally hard work but they knocked it out efficiently and without complaint. It also became apparent early on that these men are friends, like and support each other, and simply show up, work hard, and do whatever it takes in any given moment to move the job forward. The work site vibe was very positive every day. For a customer spending a not so insignificant amount of hard earned money, this is a really good thing and much appreciated.

The paver work began after a week or so of demolition and it was then I began to realize how very skilled ALL the Droughtscape workers are. This was not their first rodeo. As a retired cabinet and furniture maker I loved watching their meticulous layout, the use of string lines and laser levels everywhere to achieve the proper slope and thickness of the base layer and sand. And then I was extremely pleased to see their attention to detail scribing multiple pavers around our multifaceted patio cover posts. And it wasn't just one guy doing this work. They each had the skills necessary to pull this off. Our new patio is simply staggering. We never imagined it would so completely change the look and feel of our backyard space and dramatically extend our living space. We are ecstatic!

After the pavers were set our project required extensive new drainage be installed and connected to our existing lines. Again, this was technical work determining drain locations, pipe slopes, and how to deal with the flawed work done when the house was built in 1968. I'm blown away by how many previous problems were mitigated. We have a whole new system for ridding what was a flood prone backyard of water that that previously had no way to escape the property. As a homeowner with steep hillsides this gives me great peace of mind and other than the usual maintenance that drain's require I know that I'll never have to think about this again.

Not that we have any intention of selling in the near future but we think Droughtscape's work added substantial value to our home far in excess of what this project cost. They did an incredibly thorough job far beyond what I thought a landscape contractor would do and we are VERY grateful. Yes, we may have spent more than we originally budgeted but now that the work is complete we think it was worth every penny. I never could have come close to doing this myself. And there were hundreds of labor hours required to first demolish and then resurrect our yard to where it is today. The best thing we did was choose this company.

Last thing, go to their website and read about the company. It's really well done and after getting to know a few employees it's very accurate. This is a well established local Southern California business very much worth supporting. They have a ton of experience, a tremendous amount of knowledge and expertise, and work very hard to make it all happen. I guarantee you will not be disappointed!

Had a great experience with the whole team. Easy to communicate with, clear communication and an accurate estimate. No complaints.

Cody over at Droughtscape is one of the most organized people I know and is guaranteed to bring your landscaping dreams into reality. He is extremely knowledgeable and will help give you all sorts of information to really help you understand the process.

Cody came out and did a walk-through with us. He was thorough and gave us lots of different options for how to tackle our backyard renovation. In the end, he was able to paint a detailed approach and get us a quote within less than 24 hours. Professional and fast.

Couldn’t be happier with our choice, Droughtscape made our house a home in the Time frame it was promised and I will definitely consider and recommend to friends in the near future.

Knowledgeable crew, quick job, and beautiful results. They also happened to be the most reasonable quote we got. They were generous with time and information, and also very responsive. The only thing that was less than ideal was communication about getting the job started, which felt like I was having to reach out a lot, but it’s possibly that my tight schedule and the small size of the job played a role. Regardless, would definitely recommend them to friends!
