After receiving a few referrals from neighbors we met with three local pool companies and instantly decided upon Sage after our consultation. What a relief! The project went super smoothly and the owner, Rene, was fantastic to work with. He planned the project so efficiently that there were no wasted days waiting on a trade to arrive, re-doing work that failed a city inspection, or waiting for parts. We saw firsthand in our neighborhood how other families were stuck waiting weeks for rework, tile, or sod, etc. our project went so smoothly they did not believe us when we told them Sage had already finished! The landscaping and pool are great, and we would highly recommend Sage to anyone in the Houston area! **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > I appreciate your kind words!! We had a great project together. I hope you and the family create many memories in your amazing outdoor space!! ### All 103 reviews **★★★★★ — HU-121076857, Aug. 2026** > We couldn’t be happier with our pool and landscape project. From start to finish, Rene, owner of Sage Pools, Scapes, and Designs, brought a true can-do attitude, attention to detail, and clear communication throughout the project. He treated our vision like it was his own and made sure every step was handled with professionalism and pride. The final result exceeded our expectations in every way. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about quality and delivers exceptional work, this is the company to hire. **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > Thank you for a great project! I could not be happier with the results! I hope you create many memories in your new outdoor space!! **★★★★★ — Yvette Pereira, July 2026** > We decided to landscape our yard ( front/ back) and interviewed several landscape companies. I was dreading picking the WRONG company as I had no time for bad choices. > After meeting Rene, it felt like he immediately knew what I needed. His suggestions were always spot on with no fuss. > Better still, once he commenced the project , it went by so smoothly, I had to check if all was well!!! It was! > His crew are trustworthy individuals and worked so quietly, you did not know they were busy working. I am so impressed. > The most important thing was I now have a garden that can restore the spirit and have wonderful memories here. **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > We appreciate the opportunity to design and build your outdoor space! Morning coffee will be that more special lounging in the new space! **★★★★★ — Kayley Ancy, Feb. 2026** > Rene was exceedingly patient with us, having done our design in fall 2024, remaining available for questions throughout the following year as we built our home. Once we were finally ready for landscaping, Rene's team was out here, working efficiently daily for over a week. They were easy to work with and overall did a high quality job. We have received many compliments so far and can't wait to see how it functions for us in the coming years! **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > I appreciate your kind words! The project turned out great!! Thank you for the opportunity and trust to design & build your outdoor space. **★★★★★ — Oli Santos, Oct. 2025** > We had a great experience working with Sage Pools, Scapes & Design! From start to finish, they were excellent communicators – always keeping us in the loop and happy to answer any questions we had along the way. They showed up on time, gave us accurate updates throughout the project, and really made the whole process feel smooth and stress-free. The crew was super efficient and got things done without wasting time, and they always made sure to clean up afterwards, which we really appreciated. It’s clear they take pride in their work and care about their clients. We’re already planning to use them again for more projects in the spring – highly recommend! **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > We appreciate your kind words and look forward to working with you in the future! **★★★★★ — Richard Saxon, Sept. 2025** > Rene did a fantastic job! He was quick and professional. He met with me to review the project and was very attentive and listened to what I wanted and what I liked. He told me that I would receive a proposal and a preliminary design within two days and he delivered right on time. When I awarded him the job, he gave me a start date and he arrived exactly on that date and completed the work within a few days. It was a large project and he handled it in stride. I absolutely love what he did! **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > I appreciate your kind words. Thank you for the opportunity to design and build your outdoor space!! The beautful entry compliments your amazing acreage property. **★★★★★ — Nina, Aug. 2025** > Rene and his team did an excellent job designing and building our outdoor kitchen and patio! Rene was easy to work with, extremely communicative, and very knowledgeable. We love our new backyard and would highly recommend Sage Pools, Scapes & Design! **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > Thank you for your kind words! It was a lot of fun working with you both on your outdoor patio. I am so glad we wrapped up just in time for football season!! **★★★★★ — Rodney J Seiler, July 2025** > Sage pools did a great job with our pool and covered outdoor living area project. Rene kept the project moving along quickly and I am very pleased with the timeline and the finished product. Rene was fluid and accommodating as various issues arose and the project progressed. I highly recommend Rene and Sage Pools and feel very fortunate to have chosen Sage Pools to transform the backyard into my own private retreat. **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > Thank you for the opportunity to work on your outdoor space! It was alot of fun working wirh you both. We made some nice design changes along the way to really make the space stand out even more! You have the best tiny pool in Houston! **★★★★★ — Jody B, June 2025** > We contracted with Sage to do a backyard landscaping project. First, I felt of all the companies we talked to, Sage was the only one willing to work with us no matter how small or large the project. Rene was very professional and was willing to listen to our ideas and work within our budget. > The time frame was very reasonable too. He got us on the schedule a month after agreeing to the project and they finished the project ahead of schedule. > We're certainly happy with the overall look and we're looking forward to using our new backyard space for years to come. Rene and his team did fantastic job. **★★★★★ — Johnson, April 2025** > We had a great experience from start to finish! Very professional and we love the finished product. **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > Thank for the opportunity to work on you project! It was great working with you both. **★★★★★ — HU-718884292, March 2025** > Rene is just great. Five stars isn't enough to express our satisfaction with Sage Pools and their team! They transformed our backyard into a beautiful oasis that exceeds our expectations. > > Rene’s professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to delivering high-quality work are truly impressive. From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, Rene was responsive, courteous, and ensured our needs were met. They were very flexible to work in our budgets and estimates. > > We're thoroughly enjoying our new outdoor space, and we highly recommend Safe Pools to anyone seeking exceptional landscaping services. **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > Thank you for the kind words! Your project turned out great! I hope the morning coffee is even more enjoyable in your new space. **★★★★★ — Joseph Roan, March 2025** > Sage was a great contractor to work on a new landscaping project in our front & back yard. Rene helped design and execute a layout that works perfectly for us, after a string of bad experiences with other contractors who were never able to achieve what we had envisioned for our home. We will be repeat customers for future projects and wish that we would have connected with Sage for construction of our pool and patio space a few years ago. > > Very nice and professional, all the way. Highly recommend! **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > The project turned out awesome! I look forward to working with you both again in the future. **★★★★★ — bignate53, Aug. 2024** > I interviewed several landscape architects before choosing Sage. The reason I chose them was when we talked, Rene was able to share his conseptual thoughts on how he would approach the design of the landscape. His ideas aligned with my ideas of what I wanted. Rene was easy to colaborate with throughout the process, his workers were good and always cleaned up before they left for the day. > The project turned out better than we imagined, which is always a plus. If you want a high quality, professional job that you will be proud to show off to your friends and neighbors, I highly recommend Sage Pools, Scapes & Design. **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > You guys were awesome to work with!! I appreciate your kind words and the opportunity to work with you. **★★★★★ — Anthony White, Nov. 2023** > Had a wonderful experience with Sage Pool, Scapes and Design. From the time I initially reached out to Rene through embedding of the final plant for our project, Rene and his team were professional in every sense of the word. They prepared an eye-catching vision and landscape design for our entire back yard, a detailed plan that was meticulously executed as promised and on time, and throughout displayed an attention to detail that I have rarely if ever encountered with respect to any home project. Rene did not just listen to our needs and deliver on the resulting design, he exceeded ALL expectations. I am delighted with the final product and have been showered with compliments from everyone who has seen Rene’s excellent work. He has my highest recommendation! **Comment from Sage Pools, Scapes & Design:** > Your kind words are greatly appreciated!! Thank you for the opportunity to work with you on your outdoor project. **★★★★★ — S J, July 2023** > Everything about working with Rene and the Sage team exceeded expectations. From the initial appointment, to the design and estimate, all the way through completion. The project timeline was communicated well and the project was completed ON TIME AND ON BUDGET. the crews that came to do the work were great about keeping the job site clean and spent time every day cleaning up before they left. Our yard looks amazing and is designed to be incredible low maintenance. Rene’s passion for the work he does and his expertise in knowing exactly what to place where to achieve his vision is what makes him so amazing at what he does. Five stars, highly recommend. Will absolutely work with Sage every time I have an opportunity in the future. If I have one complaint, it’s that I’m now even more mad about all the sub-par contractors I’ve worked with recently and people saying “that’s just how it is when you work with the trades, when you do home projects”. There IS a higher standard of customer care out there, and companies that really do care about the service they provide and the work they do. Sage is setting the bar pretty high! **★★★★★ — Rachel Sievert, July 2023** > We are so excited about the landscaping we did through Sage scapes and design! Rene was incredibly helpful and creative in bringing back life to our front and back yards. He really listened to what we wanted and nailed it! His team was professional and efficient and everything was done on schedule and in budget. Thanks for everything! **★★★★★ — HU-274187771, June 2023** > We are very pleased with the pool and landscape project we had installed with Sage Scapes and Design. The design was really beautiful and functional. Rene was very accommodating with including any modifications that met our needs. The implementation has been very smooth and very fast. Rene kept us fully informed at each step along the way. We would highly recommend them for any future work. **★★★★★ — Joel North, April 2023** > I would recommend Sage Scapes and Design to anyone needing landscaping, outdoor kitchen and pool services. They are extremely professional and communicate consistently. Rene took our space and made it a destination with his vision. We are very glad we chose Sage! **★★★★★ — Jeff T, March 2023** > Rene (pronounced Rin-ee, not Re-nay) and his crew did a fantastic job of installing a drain system around my house. The job included connecting about 10 downspouts to the underground drain with popups at the street curb. Rene made regular visits to the site during the 3-day job to ensure everything was going according to plan, and his crew worked long hours with surgical precision completing the digging and piping installation BY HAND, not equipment that could damage the yard or shallow gas or fiber optic lines. I was impressed with the fact that they showed up each day when they said they would, seemingly a rarity these days with contractors and companies. The crew not only wrapped up the project a day early, but power washed the entire site area. Rene ensured the sprinkler system worked properly at the end of the job as well to make sure the heads cleared sod and no leaks were caused by their work. He answered everything question asked and freely provided inspiration landscaping design suggestions. Rene's work is a little costly, but keep in mind that you're not paying a handyman - you're paying a specialist in his field for his expertise, and you don't want a drain installation done without it. I don't have pics of the finished project as of this review, but it looks absolutely beautiful. My wife and I anticipate inviting Rene back to our house for future projects! **★★★★★ — Jennifer Nguyen, Jan. 2023** > My fiancé and I had been wanting to redo our backyard for a while, but had no idea where to start, so we decided to bring in Sage Scapes & Design for their expertise. Rene responded to the inquiry we submitted the following day, and scheduled a date to come out and take a look at what we were working with. > > During our meeting, he reviewed our site survey to determine how far back our easement went, discussed what our budget was for the renovation, and threw out some ideas to get a feel for what we would be interested in doing. We mainly wanted something that would be low maintenance, and left the designing to Rene. > > The design took about a week to be completed, and we went through a few rounds of adjustments based on my feedback before settling on a final version. Once that was done, a date for construction was set, and Jesus and his crew got to work. There were some delays due to rainy days and a freeze, but outside of that, the team worked tirelessly to make sure that the project was completed in a timely manner. > > When everything was complete, the crew made sure to clean up any messes made, and when my fiancé and I had a few questions and concerns, Jesus and Rene promptly and patiently addressed all of them. > > Overall, I would highly recommend the Sage Scapes and Design team for all your landscaping needs. They handle projects from small to large, and can work with the budget that you have. Their communication was consistent throughout the entire process, and we are so glad we went through with this project. Thanks to the team, we now have an aesthetically pleasing backyard to enjoy for years to come. **★★★★★ — Madhavi Nayar, Nov. 2022** > Rene and his team did wonderful job. It was a very smooth process, it was very easy to communicate with his team. Everyone one in the team always knew what is going on with the project and were on the same page. Work moved along according to schedule with no delay. He paid attention all tiny details. Yard looks much better than the initial drawings we saw. So happy with how it turned out! . I would highly recommend sage scapes and design. **★★★★★ — Renee, July 2022** > Rene and the Sage Scapes team are great to work with. Rene is responsive and incredibly easy to work with. He handled everything down to the smallest detail. His design was beautiful and more than I could have imagined. The end result is amazing. The pool and landscaping are beautiful. I am beyond happy! **★★★★★ — HU-574611271, July 2022** > We did a complete backyard renovation. After meeting with another landscape architect and being disappointed, we asked Rene for a proposal. His ideas were terrific! He and his team were very professional, completed the project within the promised timeframe, and followed thru on delivering the project as outlined. It was really fun working with Rene and seeing the renderings he proposed become a reality. We highly recommend Sage Scapes & Design. You won’t be disappointed!! **★★★★★ — barbara parker, July 2022** > Thank you so much to Rene and his team who came out the same day I called to fix my sprinkler system program! Really friendly and knowledgeable staff! I really approximated there expertise and attention to details. **★★★★★ — Steve Reyburn, June 2022** > The team from Sage Scapes and Design completed a patio extension and spray deck, decorative walls, a side yard walkway, and several planters in my rear yard on time and within the quoted budget. The team worked in a professional manner and put in long hours to ensure the project was completed on time. The elapsed time from start to finish was 8 days. > > I would recommend Rene and his team for any landscaping project as it is clear they have the skills to deliver a quality product. **★★★★★ — kimmy3039, June 2022** > Exceeded expectations from beginning to end both in terms of time and doing what’s promised. Attention to finer details is where the magic is. Rene has a knack to map together bits and pieces of the desires of the customer and put together one incredible design of synergy. The company and the crew were always one step ahead through all phases of the project. The crew is courteous and knowledgeable. **★★★ — John Barton, April 2022** > We had landscape work done last winter - updating our front yard completely and landscaping our back yard around our new pool in the back. Only 3 stars for me: mostly hits but some disappointing misses, especially at this price. > > First, lots to like. Rene is very enthusiastic, presents his ideas clearly and was easy to stay in touch with during the project. All the hardscaping work was implemented well and looks great. The majority of the plants selected by Rene lasted over the winter or are bouncing back. His right-hand man, Jesus, is very easy to work with too. I especially appreciated Rene and Jesus offering new suggestions or making small changes that I requested after the contract was agreed and at no extra cost. The front and back yard looked amazing immediately after planting. Lots of complements from the neighbors. > > Three main issues. 1) plant selection - the cold took out some plants the first weekend, others are still clearly struggling perhaps because of the shady areas they’ve been planted in. 2) project timing - especially planting late January. I don’t mind putting a bit of effort into protecting plants and maintaining the beds but didn’t expect to be replacing plants so soon. 3) The stone borders out the front were an important feature for me but ended up being a compromise reflecting more what Rene wanted than what I had in mind. > > If you select with Sage, make sure the contract is exactly what you want for anything important. Make sure the plant selections are appropriate. Push back on anything you’re not comfortable with. **★★★★★ — Maria Hoang, March 2022** > \*\*\*Fantastic Service, Great Communication, Beautiful Design, Trustworthy, and Quick Turnaround!\*\*\* > > Scope of the project: We needed a company that can design and install a pool with an outdoor living area with landscaping. > > We did a ton of research by asking for referrals from friends, going through home magazines, and looking for top pool companies online before selecting Sage Scapes & Design. We inquired through 10 companies and 4 provided us quotes. To put it in perspective, below were the type of quotes that we obtained. > > 1\) One company that went beyond our budget with a mock-up design after we explicity told them what our budget was. Basically the company did not listen to anything we said. > 2\) A company came out to view the site, but never came back to provide us a quote because he got too busy working on other contracts. He didn't follow-up with us until 4 weeks later which we already made a decision with a company. > 3\) A company that was within our budget to provide what we needed, but the design and products that were being utilized was too simple and basic. Also, the budget did not include landscaping. > 4\) Then there was Sage Scapes & Design. I found them through Houzz and loved their designs and photos on the website. Then I sent in an inquiry. 30 mins later I received a call from the owner. After a 15 min conversation, based on his background and experience, we knew this was a company that we wanted to look into further that provided the one stop solution that we were looking for. His company offered design and support staff/contractors to do the pool, outdoor living, and landscaping. > > More information on Sage Scapes & Design and how everything was processed. > \- The owner was very communicative and professional from the start. We provided the scope of the project and our budget. Then he came out to inspect the location within the same week and provided us a 3D mock-up design for review within a couple of weeks. We were completely blown away by his design as well as being able to accomodate our budget to give us everything we were asking for. The project overall took 4 months to complete without any major hiccups. The owner was the project manager through the entire process and communicated as much as needed and made sure everything was on schedule. Also, we were able to pick out all the color pallets which was a fun process for my husband and I. He had his crew on all pieces of the project aligned and insynced from the beginning where their was hardly any down time for materials or staff. We had a final walkthrough to make sure all the details were in place and if there wasn't, the owner made sure to accomodate what needed to be adjusted. During this time, we had friends that were waiting over 6 months to complete their pools. > > We were very fortunate that we found Sage Scapes & Design and highly recommend this company. **★★★★★ — Olena Glukhova, March 2022** > Rene and his team are absolutely the best! We were looking for the pool builder to transform our backyard into the tropical oasis, and we are so happy that we found him! > From the very first call and up until the completion of our project, Rene provided the highest quality of service and the best attention to detail. He is always on top of things, all necessary orders were placed on time, all inspections were scheduled and went smoothly, all crews were very professional. Rene is very hands on, he personally visited the project many times to make sure everything was going as planned. We loved the initial rendering, and we were amazed to see that the end result turned out to be even better than what we anticipated! And the best part - our project was completed TWO months ahead of schedule! > Cannot recommend Rene highly enough! **★★★★★ — Angelo Christian, Oct. 2021** > very professional company they do what they say they are going to do! Very creative designs would not trust anyone else! **★ — HU-846107279, Oct. 2021** > Very poor customer service. They abruptly cancelled service without notice. Would not recommend this business to anyone for any service. **★★★★★ — Andrew Paderanga, Sept. 2021** > Rene and his team did such a wonderful job in helping us create our dream front yard paradise. From concept to final construction, they were true professionals. From the beginning, Rene listened to our ideas, incorporated his expertise and magic touch, and it became reality. Jesus came by onsite and added some ideas to the type of plants, lighting and tree trimming, which helps so much because he walked us though some of Rene’s vision. During the construction process, Jesus engaged us to make sure we like what we were getting, his crew were very professional and did a good job cleaning it after each day. Jesus listened to us when we needed some adjustments to the plans and implemented it to our satisfaction. He explained how to maintain the landscaping and adjusted our sprinkler system to ensure proper watering. What a great team and we recommend Sage Scapes to others! We love our new front landscape! **★★★★★ — roman gautreaux, July 2021** > I would recommend anyone to Sage Scapes for the amazing work they do. If I had to use one word to describe my experience with Sage Scapes it would be "Quality". Rene and his team take great pride in the work that they deliver to their customers. While our project was a rather small job, they took great pride in its outcome. One thing I appreciated the most was his communication with us the entire time. The quality and attention they provided while performing the job was also unparreled. All it takes is a 5min conversation with Rene and you immediately know he's the man for the job. > > Big or small Sage Scapes does it, and they do it well. **★★★★★ — Riaz Israel, July 2021** > We contracted Sage Scapes to provide landscaping services around a recently built backyard pool. Rene and his team exceeded all expectations. From the the initial consultation he provided the right balance between listening to our ideas/providing his expert advice. He was accommodating during the pool construction, where several delays from another contractor delayed his part of the project. Once he and the team came in, they delivered the design flawlessly and efficiently. The transformation that their professionally executed landscaping skills has brought to our backyard cannot be understated - we have received several compliments from friends on our new 'backyard resort' Above all, Rene's professionalism was a standout element of this project - he is the benchmark that all contractors in this space should aspire to! **★★★★★ — Lynnette Heard, June 2021** > From the moment we met Jesus Chavez, the project lead for our landscaping refresh, we were convinced we selected the best! With great care and concern for our needs and budget, Sage Scapes and Design created a beautiful design for our home. Their communication with us was reliable and constant. Their ideas were exactly what we'd hoped. The results are simply beautiful. Thank you for becoming OUR choice for all our landscaping projects! **★★★★★ — kimberly Willingham, June 2021** > Sage Scapes and Design went far above our expectations! Our backyard is beautiful, and they created a place we want to be in and enjoy! I would recommend their service to everyone! **★★★★★ — Jennifer, May 2021** > Rene and his team just completed a full redesign of my front yard, and I'm so pleased with how gorgeous it turned out! I've worked with Rene and his team for yard maintenance for about six months. During that time I've been pleased with Sage Scapes' professionalism and reliability, and so after my yard suffered serious damage after the ice storm, I reached out to Rene to see if he could help. During our consultation, Rene listened carefully to my maintenance needs and aesthetics, and he came up with a thoughtful plan. When it came time to do the work, Rene checked in regularly throughout the process. His crew was fantastic, under the leadership of Jesus, who was professional, careful and attentive to every detail. We're thrilled with the end product, and can't wait until it's time to tackle our next project together! **★★★★★ — Doug Bradford, April 2021** > Rene, Jesus, and their team were great to work with throughout the entire process and we are absolutely over the moon with the finished product! We weren't really sure what exactly we wanted for our backyard design, but just knew we wanted some privacy screening without completely blocking out the natural tree-filled backdrop behind us. Upon our first meeting with Rene, we really liked all the different plants/ideas he was throwing around and were very eager to see what he would come up with - and boy were we blown away! His design far exceeded our expectations and made us realize that we didn't just want to do something "basic" but instead something that would really accentuate our view and "pop". > > The variety of plants he picked for our yard all looked really healthy and offer many different foliage colors/textures and a few pops of color that come together in a beautifully curated collection - not to mention the stunning steel planters that contrast all the natural greenery! We LOVE our design and it's definitely enhanced our backyard experience so far, can't wait to continue to enjoy it as everything matures into our very own oasis! Not going to lie, we did hit a few bumps in the road with a couple issues that arose that were out of their control, and while it was a bit of a roller coaster in the moment, they handled everything really well and got it taken care of timely and most importantly got it done the "right" way instead of cutting corners or taking the easy way out. Overall, the end results are absolutely stunning and completely worth the few stressful moments encountered, looking forward to working with Sage Scapes & Design on future projects! **★★★★★ — Tenna Vogel, April 2021** > Rene drew up a beautiful design that I loved! Time line was on point and job completed a little early. Rene communicated with me daily and text pictures when I had to work and couldn’t be home. Rene answered all my questions and alleviated my fears. All of the landscaping in the front, sides, and back yard look amazing. The stamped concrete patio in the back and all of the stone work looks even better than I expected. Rene’s follow through on the job was great. I obtained other bids, but Rene was the only person who followed through and it was a big job. You absolutely cannot go wrong with Rene and his team. PS: they also fixed my sprinkler system and my neighbor’s fence so his dogs wouldn’t get in my yard. **★★★★★ — emmamulcrone, Dec. 2020** > Rene and his team did a great job. They took out the existing landscaping and redesigned/installed the new landscaping. Everything turned out amazing and we had no complaints. I would recommend Sage Scapes and plan to use them again for our backyard. **★★★★★ — Kimberly Goeden, Dec. 2020** > From the moment I reached out to Sage Scapes, Rene has been polite, knowledgeable and easy to work with. We redid our entire backyard which included putting a pool in, and a complete landscape. Anytime I had any questions I was always responded to promptly and professionally. Everyone on his crew was polite and professional. I am so happy with the work that I am having them come back in the spring to start my front yard project. I would highly recommend Sage Scapes for and landscaping or design projects you have. I promise you wont be disappointed! **★★★★★ — Virginia Simons, Nov. 2020** > I moved into a house that had not been occupied for about a year. The lawn was dead, and out of compliance with HOA requirements. The first thing I did was hire Sage Scapes and Design to review the situation and make recommendations. The design, thoughtfully created by Rene Vereecken (the owner of Sage Scapes & Design), was totally awesome. I have two dogs, and Rene's design eliminated the muddy side yards, through the use of rocks and concrete slabs, which not only takes care of the muddy pawprints, but looks great! They replaced all of the grass and plants in the front yard with colorful plants and a new tree, creating synergy that has garnered many compliments from my neighbors. I wish everyone could see the back yard, which is so beautiful, I keep going out there just to spend time looking at it. It is truly a work of art. They performed the work in two phases, accommodating my schedule and budget. They also replaced my out-of-date sprinkler system control panel with one that actually works. I am so happy I engaged them for not only the landscaping, but also routine lawn maintenance, which they consistently perform with care and consideration. **★★★★★ — Kelley Smith, Oct. 2020** > I love our new front landscape! It's completely transformed from what the builder installed. Rene was creative, professional, timely and responsive throughout the process - from initial call to consult, design and installation. I knew what I did NOT want in the landscape, but could not conceptualize what I did want. Rene came up with a great plan. The installation crew was very professional and cleaned up the site well when finished. No short cuts were taken and the finished product is better than I imagined. Looking forward to doing our backyard next. **★★★★★ — Lesley Waldroup, Oct. 2020** > Rene and his team did a wonderful job in helping me create my backyard paradise. From concept to final construction, they were true professionals. I explored the option of other pool builders, but they did not share my same vision for the space. Rene was able to listen to my ideas and incorporate my thoughts into reality. The final outcome was incredible!! **★★★★★ — rodog123, Oct. 2020** > We highly recommend Sage Scapes and Design! Rene is friendly, professional, and trustworthy. He truly listened to the vision we had for our backyard and created a beautiful modern design that exceeded our expectations!

Most people ignored my request or were not interested in the project as it was considered “too small” not only did Rene answer me back, he communicated with me very conveniently through text, showed up at my home at my convenience, and then proceeded to complete the project way sooner than expected. My house looks completely different and I’m already receiving compliments on the new look. Great team of people to work with. I will definitely be in contact on any future projects! **★★★★★ — Kimberly Cutchall, June 2020** > Rene is an ARTIST! If I could give Rene and his firm 10 stars, I would. We started with a vision that Rene brought to life. He took his time to listen to what we wanted, brainstormed some ideas, and then came back with a plan. The plan had elements that I wasn't quite sure how they would fit in the overall plan, but trusted him to make it happen, and boy, did he! His team was not only talented, but thorough and fast! We have had more people stop, take pictures, and tell us how beautiful it looks. This was a front and side yard project and we are now digging in to what the back yard will transform into! **★★★★★ — BLT architect, March 2020** > My courtyard garden is in deep shade so difficult space.

The collaboration continued throughout construction, where several onsite adjustments were made to ensure our unique design became a reality. We are delighted with the final result and look forward to starting project no. 3 in the Spring. **★★★★★ — Derek James Homes, LLC, Nov. 2019** > Service is prompt, designs are creative and pricing is reasonable. > Rene is passionate about his work and the knowledge that he provides about plants, trees and grass is impressive and imperative to his unique designs. We are a custom home builder and will continue to use him on other projects. **★★★★ — Jawad Rawra, Nov. 2019** > Great experience working with Rene. He is very knowledgeable in this industry. He takes his customers vision and makes it a reality! His team did an excellent job at my new house. Once the price and job are agreed upon you don't have to worry about anything till the end of the project (including cleanup). A little on the expensive side but money worth spent! He does not like to be involved in side work if requested to help or be a team player. Overall excellent job with the project. **★★★★★ — Naomi Wittlin, Nov. 2019** > Absolutely amazing - from concept to installation, seamless and excellent communication.

We found Rene through HOUZZ, and he provided landscaping design and installation services for our new home. Rene was professional, positive and energetic throughout the entire process. In the beginning he worked with us on plant selection, style and overall feel of our landscaping design. When it came time for installation he was at the project daily and his crew was professional and tidy. All the work was completed on time and the final product exceeded our expectation. Rene stopped by our home the week after completion to make sure the irrigation system was working properly and that the landscaping was taking. Rene has made our house feel like our home! **★★★★★ — cesarlarrea, June 2019** > Rene did an excellent work for us. He took the time to listen to what we wanted done and made sure we were happy with the results. Rene gave us daily updates and let us know if any issues came up and potential solutions.

Overall very happy with the results, I would highly recommend Rene and Sage Scapes & Design. > > Cesar **★★★★★ — erin\_mann\_johnson, May 2019** > This is the second project Sage Scapes and Design has completed for us and we are so happy with their work again. They put in a new stone path to match the one they put in a year ago. Finding the exact matching stone was not easy but they called all over Texas and were able to get the same stones. They always are willing to go above and beyond to finish the job the correct way. They also put in all new sod in the front yard, added a beautiful cedar boarder and Kiddie Cush around our children’s play space and re-mulched all the beds. Rene and his team are so easy to work with. They are knowledgeable, hard working, responsive and efficient. I am so glad we found such a great Landscape and Design company to work with and we will definitely be using them for our future projects! **★★★★★ — Ann Whitfield, May 2019** > I had this company install a stamped concrete patio for me.

I would definitely recommend Sage Scapes and Design. **★★★★★ — dgkblakes, March 2019** > Rene and his team did an amazing job on our back yard landscaping. He was very helpful in suggesting certain trees and shrubs that would fit our needs and do well in the Texas weather. Rene listened to our main concern of privacy and came up with a layout design that was just right for us and beautiful. We highly recommend using Sage Scapes! **★★★★★ — Mandy Miller, March 2019** > I really, really wanted a xeric design for my backyard. I had a hard time finding a landscaper who understood what I envisioned and was willing to do it. I spent a few minutes telling Rene what I was thinking and he was immediately on board. He came up with a beautiful design within my budget. Once they had the plants and rocks, the project was completed in one day. I was so pleased, I hired him for my regular landscaping. I can't wait to get started on the front yard! **★★★★★ — Veronika Demichelis, March 2019** > We have worked with Rene and his crew for over a year now on landscaping projects and lawn maintenance, and they recently redid our entire front yard, including new sod and a redesigned flower bed.

Rene and his crew put in 6 different zones of sprinklers, fixed our drainage issue by re-routing everything underground with french drains, extended our driveway, and redesigned our front bed by moving all of the existing plants to the backyard and planting all new, low maintenance plants for us in the front. He was professional, courteous, and worked within our budget and expectations.

Highly recommended. **★★★★★ — User, March 2018** > My family has been saving and mulling over doing something with our backyard for a couple years now, and we finally decided to get some quotes. Our backyard is a small space that needs room for both adults and children. Immediately, Rene had a vision for our backyard that sounded perfect. He extended our patio and improved it with a stamp. Additionally he put bull rock and small plants along the side of the house since the area always gets soggy and looked drab. Flower beds were also installed along the fence with some pretty roses and other green bushes to add some color and life. Rene included a little garden for my kids to do their own thing, and surrounded it with some pretty purple plants to always keep it looking nice. The detailed design and quote were given overnight with an outstanding timeline for completion. He made sure that everything was completed with the utmost attention to detail and schedule. All debris and mess was hauled away, and we now have our own little oasis to enjoy. The idea of what we wanted for our backyard has been exceeded. As a person, Rene is incredibly friendly, and as a designer, he has a great eye. I am recommending Sage Scapes & Design to anyone looking to improve, maintain, or upgrade their yard. Thank you! **★★★★★ — Tina Hughes, March 2018** > Sage Scapes did an excellent job on our yard. They took our overgrown, sadly neglected yard and made it beautiful. Rene and his team came in and salvaged the bushes they could by bringing them back to their original shape.

Since I don't know anything about trees and shrubs, I let him decide what to put in. It looks wonderful. Rene was a pleasure to work with. **★★★★★ — Jeffrey Albus, March 2018** > We are extremely pleased with the professionalism and courtesy shown by Sage Scapes & Design.

After posting my job, he was one of the first to respond with a text message to my phone. I called Rene and he gave me a fair price for the job and he told me when he could take care of it. I even called him the next day to see if he could move it up a day and he was able to do that. Very responsive. I can tell he takes great pride in doing the job right and on time. **★★★★★ — anthonyvasquez22\_av, Nov. 2017** > Rene with Sage Scapes is highly professional and will make your experience very pleasant.
