Landscaping reviews in Walnut Creek, California

When we decided to spruce up our landscape this summer, there was no better choice than Alderland. From start-to-finish they provided an incredible level of service, offering advice on all aspects of design such as color selection and plant spacing. We also had them install a few new hardscaping features too which turned out great! They had us in mind every step of the way and made sure all our wants and needs were met. We are absolutely thrilled with how it turned out thanks to Alderland's skillful landscape design!

Don and his team took over another project that was unfortunately not going as planned, and with just a few weeks before Memorial Day weekend, Alderland desiged, executed (full landscape, hundreds a shrubs/flowers, sod, and entertainment) our dream backyard. We couldn't be happier with the outcome and more importantly, the communication, professionalism, and guidance that we received throughout the process. While there was a lot of ideas being bounced around Don knew when to step in and provide a firm opinion & everything was perfectly planned in coordination with us. After installation,we made a few minor adjustments that were on the house ultimately because I really felt the Alderland team wanted to get it right and make us happy. I’d be more than happy to be a reference for Don and his team and will be using them for our next major project.

Alderland was really great. Don and Aaron helped us with the design process and were patient, knowledgeable, thoughtful and really eager to work with your ideas as well as their own, which have been honed over many many years of doing landscaping projects.

My family recently had a custom swimming pool built by Alderland here in Alameda County and couldn't have asked for better results. Not only did they handle both aspects (construction & design) but they went above & beyond expectations on both fronts; their expertise showed from start-to-finish on this project from helping us decide on materials & features during planning stages all the way through construction itself where every detail was taken into consideration resulting in a finished product that is truly stunning. Thanks so much for making our dreams come true Alderland!

My husband and I chose Alderland through a friend referral and backed up by the company's online reviews. We were in need of landscaping for our entire 1.15 acre property. Don and his team worked with us through the entire design process, which included a tricky hillside. He was able to keep the natural look we were going for as well. Don was able to stay within budget and finished our project on time. I even called with a water emergency (that turned out main water pipe burst to our house and wasn't a landscaping pipe) and he came out within hours with a team member and fixed it for us the day after Christmas! I highly recommend Alderland and his team!

We couldn't be happier with our decision to have Alderland install our pool! From the amazing design team to the installation of pool, to the service department, every part of this project was met with the greatest customer service and support from Don and his entire team. As we enjoyed our pool throughout the summer of 2023 any/all questions or concerns we had as first time pool owners were answered quickly and without any hesitation. The Alderland team has continually met all of our needs and have exceeded our expectations! We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to start the pool process because you will not be disappointed!

We needed a major landscaping project at our home, and we knew that Alderland would do an outstanding job. But what really blew us away was their incredible commitment to customer satisfaction throughout the entire process. Every member of the team went above and beyond to make sure that everything turned out exactly as we wanted it; they even installed some additional features that weren't part of the original plan without any additional charge! Our yard looks fantastic now thanks to their creative efforts - if you're looking for a company who will treat your outdoor project as if it were their own, look no further than Alderland!

Wow! An amazing team. Between Don's decade's deep expertise in the field and Aaron's exemplary customer service, it's hard not to be a fan of Alder Landscaping. They really helped us think through our property's potential and provided us with a design that pulled out all the stops.

Highly recommend them as a "one-stop-shop" to turning your backyard into an oasis. Particularly if you are installing a pool. Which is a highly complex undertaking. My only regret is not hiring them sooner.

After 40 years the backyard and front yard were long overdue for a makeover. Don and his team at Alder Landscaping were incredible from start to finish. They communicated clearly at every stage, took our scattered ideas, and transformed the backyard into paradise. A special shoutout to Aaron, Israel, and Leo for all their hardwork. Every single person on the team was a joy to work with. Don really listened to what we wanted, then somehow made it even better than we imagined. You can tell this crew treats each project like it’s their own home. Every plant, stone, and detail was placed with pride and care.

We left the plant selection up to Don, and let’s just say the man knows his greenery. His design and placement choices brought the whole yard to life. I used to think “landscaping” meant planting a couple shrubs and calling it a day. Apparently, it actually involves briefly turning your yard into the surface of Mars before transforming it into something that might be featured in Better Homes & Gardens.

Now we've got a backyard that feels like a resort. The added lighting provides a perfect finishing touch and beautifully highlights all the features. There’s a lovely fire pit to cozy up around and enjoy peaceful nights under the stars, a pergola that’s perfect for relaxing with a drink, and a garden that my cat treats like her personal botanical amusement park. The space is stunning, peaceful, and honestly kind of magical.

Thank you, Don and the team, for completely “Alderizing” our yard. We couldn’t be happier!

We couldn't be more happier with the results from Alderland Pools & Landscaping! We hired them to help design our backyard and front yard project with pool, decking and hardscape, and the experience from start to finish was fantastic.

Their designer, Aaron, was an absolute pleasure to work with. He truly listened to our vision and translated our ideas into a stunning, functional design that perfectly suits our lifestyle. His communication was excellent; he was professional, incredibly creative, and was very responsive to all our questions.

The quality of work is outstanding, and the process was smooth and efficient.

We would highly recommend Aaron and Alderland Pools & Landscaping to anyone looking to create their dream outdoor space.

We are extremely happy with their attention to detail and their level of knowledge. We highly recommend this outstanding company and will not hesitate to call them again in the future. Fair prices and quality work. They remained true to their word from start to finish.🏡💯

I figured they would be someone I could count on since he'd won the best of east bay award five years running, and I was right. My backyard was a mess of weeds, crabgrass, and just general ugliness. They were able to take what little space I have and turn it into a retreat for my wife and I. This summer we had all sorts of compliments after a couple of dinner parties. Highly recommended.

I am extremely pleased with the service and quality of work we have received from GardenCrafters. In particular, I would like to thank Mark and the whole team for their hard work and dedication to our project. Our front and backyard are everything we had hoped they would be. We will continue to use them in our future projects for sure!

We've worked with GardenCrafters for over a year now and have been fortunate to have really wonderful people handle our project. Mark helped ensure that our overall landscaping design came out looking better than we'd even imagined and was very open to our ideas. Highly recommended for all your landscaping needs around Rossmoor!

GardenCrafters handled the original landscape plan and installation for our new home. The company was selected by our builder, so we were not sure what to expect. We were very pleased with our project manager's plan. They were extremely knowledgeable and we are very happy with the results. We highly recommend this company and would use it again.

Words cannot describe how happy we are with GardenCrafters! Mark and his team did an amazing job putting our thoughts into reality for our home. They listened to exactly what we were looking for and put that creative spin to make it all come together. GardenCrafters had professional staff that we trusted working around our home. We appreciated them working within our budget and exceeding expectations.

GardenCrafters is amazing! I have used them to establish a garden in my backyard and it is beautiful. We recently contracted with them to makeover our very overgrown yard. Their team have all been very easy to work with as my wife and I struggled to figure out what we wanted at first. They not only helped with the design but also dealt with us as we made changes with the initial plan.

GardenCrafters consistently delivers and that is why we have used their services for 2 straight years. They do quality work and if something is not right, they respond immediately and make it right. Confidence in your contractor is critical. The team is knowledgeable and passionate about what they do and you can trust them to exceed your expectations!

My husband and I wanted our yard completed before moving into our new home in Bethel Island. Being in an hoa community, we had strict limitations on what we could install. A-List handled everything, from submitting the necessary paperwork to the final design and build. They built our composite deck, concrete, and did a custom planter boxes for my new garden. They made a stressful process seamless!!! We will definitely be reaching out to them for our front yard in the future!

We were very pleased to find a team that could accommodate our budget while working on our home. Given the steep slope of our yard, we had initially believed the space was beyond improvement. However, their work transformed it completely. They installed a concrete patio and a retaining wall, making the area both functional and inviting. The entire space feels much more useful and we can now comfortably spend time outdoors.

I recently had my backyard done by A-List Landscape in Walnut Creek, and I’m honestly really happy with how everything turned out. They installed a new concrete patio, retaining wall, fresh sod, and a custom walkway, and the whole backyard looks completely different now.

The crew was professional, friendly, and easy to work with from the beginning. They showed up on time, kept everything clean, and paid attention to the small details that really made a difference. I also appreciated how communicative they were throughout the project and how they took the time to answer questions and make sure everything came out the way I wanted.

What I liked most was that the work didn’t feel rushed. You can tell A-List Landscape takes pride in what they do, and the quality of the finished work really shows. The backyard came out even better than I expected, and I’ve already gotten compliments from family and friends.

I would definitely recommend A-List Landscape to anyone in Walnut Creek looking for reliable, high-quality landscaping and backyard construction work. Great experience overall.
