### Reviews

**★★★★★ — karen loria, March 2020**

> We had an excellent experience hiring Adobe Landscaping.  The owner, Reese was completely open to exploring our ideas and problem solving our unorthodox requests and approach.  He communicated ever bit along the way and made practical suggestions tailored to our aesthetic and budget.  We have a high level of expectation as far as craftsmanship goes and Reese was by far the best we ever worked with. We were lucky to find Adobe and will without a doubt hire them again for future projects.

**★★★★★ — Susan Kim, Aug. 2019**

> Reese and his team were amazing to work with.  We used them for removing and installing a fence around our property.  Reese is a true professional.  He is reliable, communicative and detail-oriented.  He will go the extra mile to work with you on your design preferences and your budget.  Reese and his team will deliver quality results.  I look forward to working with them on future projects!

**★★★★★ — Jane Perovich, Aug. 2019**

> Working with Reese on our deck project was a terrific experience.  His professionalism, attention to detail, communication, reliability, and mutual design collaboration was exemplary.  His personal workmanship was meticulously thorough, and only reinforced our appreciation and sense of trust in him throughout the entire project.  Even in dealing with the challenge of various slopes of our yard, Reese was able to still find solutions and bring the project to conclusion within our originally estimated timeline.  We couldn't be happier with both the final product or the entire process.  Basically, look no further.  You won't be disappointed.

**★★★★★ — Stacy Holmes, May 2018**

> Our household highly recommends Reese and his crew from Adobe Landscaping.  We had Adobe install pavers in a large patio/driveway area that required significant excavation, leveling and some creative solutions to plumbing outtakes and transitions. Reese provided a thoughtful evaluation of our family's needs and was attentive throughout the whole project.  His staff Taylor was very skilled in prepping and laying the pavers and we now have a beautiful multipurpose patio in a high traffic area.

**★★★★★ — KAMS, April 2018**

> I've worked with Adobe Landscaping for several years, and I completely trust them with decisions and improvements to our yard. They transformed our backyard from an uninteresting grass patch to an enticing entertainment zone with beautiful concrete planters, wood benches, firepit, zen rock garden and bamboo. The backyard has become our oasis, and it was designed from scratch by Adobe Landscaping.  They are currently working on bringing some of the same motifs to the front yard - these folks are masters! Highly recommend.

**★★★★★ — oliverchang10, April 2018**

> Reese took on a fairly extensive project for our home, redoing our landscaping, hardscaping , lighting as well as irrigation. We had  just remodeled our home in a transitional style and it was important that we preserve that aesthetic with our outdoor space.
>
> From the start Reese was very responsive, communicated clearly, was always punctual and easy to work with. He provided a lot of good ideas and at the same time was open to playing with ideas we had in mind. He was diligent about listening to our needs and ensuring that the final result not only fulfilled our vision but stayed within our budget. I appreciated his honesty about where we should and shouldn't spend money, never feeling like he was needlessly upselling services.   He and his team were very professional and hard working throughout the project.
>
> We are extremely happy with the end result and would not hesitate to recommend Adobe to our friends or anyone else who asks.

**★★★★★ — Kelly Donovan, April 2018**

> Adobe Landscaping were very responsive, provided a clear estimate, showed up at the scheduled date/time to start the project, communicated clearly throughout the project, and best of all, created a great outdoor area for us that was in line with our vision. The project was on time and budget and we couldn't be happier with the experience and outcome.

**★★★★★ — CHRISTOPHER SPITTERS, April 2018**

> Excellent landscaping work, from design to finish.  We retained Adobe to design and install a paver pathway and rejuvenate a garden in preparation for selling a house.  After a failed 3-month listing on the market prior to landscaping, our house sold in just two weeks after Adobe's work was completed.  Reese provided great consultation and customer-friendliness in the design, implementation, and a logistics of the project.  We will definitely work with him again.

**★★★★★ — Sandy Smith, March 2017**

> Reese is one of the best contractors I've worked with on any home improvement project! The project for my newly purchased 1940's home included front and backyard work. In the front yard he removed a shabby cement block/brick courtyard wall and the cracked pavement, then installed a paver walkway and lawn. In the backyard he removed a cracked, uneven walkway and small patio area and installed pavers, extending the patio into a larger area, built new cement stairs for the back door and put in a small retaining wall to level new raised veggie beds, as well as installing the beds with a gravel base and surround. I am having him back soon to install irrigation for the veggie beds.
> His work is excellent, knowledge is great and I like that he does all of the work himself (with assistance when called for). This was very important to me, as no one does a better job than the owner of a company.
>
> He was always pleasant, calm and gladly worked with me if I wanted to make changes as the project evolved. This is not always the case with many contractors. He is honest about what will work and not work, as well as very helpful in suggesting/designing.
>
> I highly recommend Adobe Landscaping Co. to everyone!

**★★★★★ — kristinelisekelly, Oct. 2016**

> Adobe Landscaping was amazing to work with: prompt response time, creative, and hardworking.  Whenever Reese said he was going to do something, he followed through with it, and then some.  Reese just completed our front entryway, which included demo of our existing steps, rebuilding of boulder terraces and installing timber steps with a gravel walkway. He listened to our ideas for design, and enhanced them. As new homeowners, he worked with our budget and there was never any upselling or pressure.  We would work with Adobe Landscaping again in a heartbeat, and highly recommend this company.

**★★★★★ — Marion Denning, March 2016**

> Resse is awesome, honest and hardworking.  He has completed 4 projects for us in the last 3 years and in fact he is just finishing a paving and wall project for us as of 3-7-16.  His design aesthetic is  right in line with my wife and our overall plan and he has an impeccable work ethic.   We have recommended him to our daughter, sister and several neighbors; all have had work completed by him.  Our projects run the gambit from landscape, hardscape, patios and rain garden all have exceeded our expectations.  He is great to work with and is always ready with a smile, even when it is pouring down rain and cold.  We would use him again, and I am sure we will, and would recommend him without reservation anytime.

**★★★★★ — Lev Kaufman, Nov. 2015**

> Reese built a handsome, bespoke deck for my family. It exceeded our expectations. He added touches to the design that integrated it wonderfully into our home. He was always available and communicative with us through the whole project. I would recommend his company without reservation.

## Community Q&A

**Q: love to steps** *(in Photo Questions)*

was wondering how you made the timbers stay in place, i see the bolts but what are the bolts attached to under the stone?

A: Hi - simple construction. Two 4"x4" pressure treated posts around 2' in length get attached to the cedar step. Pressure treated posts are then set into post holes and backfilled with tamped soil.

Make sure and cut the 4"x4" treated post about 2" below the top of the cedar step so that you don't see it when you backfill the gravel.
