Promise Path Landscaping Inc

Angel and his team transformed our backyard from a dated, unusable space to a Mediterranean oasis. From the first day we met with Promised Path, we had the upmost confidence in their vision and delivery. The team arrived promptly on time every single day, were so gracious in helping clean up, water the trees and put away the tools before the weekend (esp helpful with young kids) and the final product exceeded our expectations. Both Angel and Sal were great at hearing our vision, finding a way to work it into budget and bring it to life. I'd absolutely refer them to anyone needing a reliable team with excellent communication, skill, and delivery.

I can’t say enough good things about Angel and Salvador. We started this project with a lot of anxiety due to some negative experiences I’ve had in the past, but they were incredibly reassuring and patient throughout the entire process. We did a complete redesign of both our front and backyard, and the results are truly amazing. They brought my vision to life and collaborated with me to create a landscape I’ve always wanted. Their crew is punctual, efficient, and consistently gets the job done right. At the end of each day, they leave the property clean and tidy, which makes living through outdoor construction much easier. What really sets them apart is their focus on one project at a time. They’re always present and available to address any issues or adjustments along the way. As long as you’re responsive in making decisions and answering their questions, the project moves smoothly without delays. In fact, our neighbor was so impressed with the work that they ended up hiring them for a complete redesign of their own front and backyard landscaping.

We waiting a long time to redo out backyard and spoke with quite a few different contractors, landscape architects and landscape designers. We ultimately chose to move forward with Promised Path because they repeatedly followed up and made sure we understood their bid, how it related to other projects and how they could implement our design. They did what they said they were going to do, deliver an outstanding product, in a timely manner, with great quality. Angel and the team we're communicative and we always felt like the team was looking out for our best interest. Our project manager, Salvador, was especially great to work with and added real value in his recommendations and attention to detail. I don't write reviews, but was thoroughly impressed by their commitment to the project, communication, and ease to work with. I would happily recommend them to any one.

After reaching out to several landscape architecture firms, I was venting to a friend about how hard it was to find a true one-stop shop. She had worked with Promise Path on her yard and recommended I give them a call—and I’m so glad I did. From the very beginning, Promise Path exceeded my expectations. Not only did they deliver exactly what I was looking for, but they also brought to life ideas I had only dreamed of—concepts that a prior company had dismissed as impossible (expanding on a sloped hill and adding a deck). Angel, Salvador, and the entire team were an absolute pleasure to work with. Angel started the process by sharing a detailed rendering of his vision and clearly outlining what to expect. Throughout the project, communication was outstanding. I was kept informed every step of the way—from selecting materials to finalizing patterns and layouts—and they were always receptive to my input, making thoughtful adjustments to reflect my preferences. One thing I especially appreciated was their flexibility. Midway through the project, I decided to add my front patio areas, which weren’t part of the original scope. They adapted to the request with ease. The crew was consistently punctual, professional, and respectful of my home. In the end, the original vision wasn’t just realized—it was elevated beyond what I imagined. I’ve already recommended Promise Path to two family members, and I wouldn’t hesitate to share Promise Path with others.

I decided on Promise Path after interviewing several landscape companies. Promise Path was the most reasonable related to cost and timeline. Also, Angel, the owner was open to my unusual design ideas and offered additional thoughts that were creative and practical. The contract that he presented was detailed and specified the order of the various steps in the process. Salvador, the project manager was on the scene pretty much everyday. He was so easy to work with because he is professional and open. He always informed me of potential problems and the time for completion of each phase. I enjoyed watching as the beauty of the project emerged. This was a pretty large and complicated project which involved tiles imported from Mexico and a custom built chimenea style fireplace. Promise Path clearly only hires people who have demonstrated a high level of expertise in various skills (tiling, concrete, plumbing, electrical, etc). The results speak for themselves and I couldn't be more satisfied. I should add that Salvador made sure that the property was cleaned up and that I was informed about all the small details. I recommend Promise Path without reservation.

Promised Path has done three major projects at two homes for us. we've been beyond totally satisfied with their work and the expertise they brought to our projects. our latest project was the biggest and again we couldn't be happier with the end result! They turned our average yard into a low maintenance beautiful yard. They added two parking pads, turf and palms in the front yard and concrete pad in the back large enough for pickleball and a three point basketball court. We chose to add the hoop and lines ourselves.

Promised Path Landscaping did a fabulous job with a full front and back yard remodel. Angel's crew and his site manager, Salvador, were punctual each day, got the job done on time, and made logical (and appreciated) recommendations. We are very happy with the outcome. I highly recommend them.

We are thrilled with the transformation of our back and front yard thanks to Promise Path Landscaping. Their design captured our vision and took care of every detail we wanted for our project. Angel, Salvador and their crew are very talented and professional. The communication was extraordinary throughout the project. Their guidance was key for us to make the right decisions. They went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect leaving our home look stunning! We would highly recommend Promise Path Landscaping for anyone seeking top-notch landscaping services in San Diego.

After fielding several quotes from other landscaping businesses, and being disappointed with the lack of professionalism or follow-through, finding out that some were unlicensed, cutting corners, or just shady, we felt we were going to be in good hands with Angel and his team. From the start, we were impressed by his years of expertise, professionalism, and attention to detail with our yard's design and all materials he planned on using for the project. With this being my husband and I's first time working with a landscaping team and with our specific vision in mind, we had a lot of questions and some modification requests, and appreciated Angel's patience in addressing them all, and his flexibility and pivoting in order to help us have the yard we envisioned. He was always just a phone call away. We also appreciate that he was over often to make sure everything was going smoothly and as planned. It's amazing to see the concept we had for our front and backyard come to life, and we're glad we made the right choice with Promise Path. The quality of their work is unmatched. Thanks so much Angel!

We recently worked with Angel and his team at Promised Path Landscaping on our backyard and we couldn’t be happier with the results! The project involved demo-ing our existing landscape and hardscape, installing pavers, building a retaining wall on a steep canyon and a sitting wall, adding grass, landscape lighting, irrigation, and drainage. The finished product is absolutely beautiful. The experience of working with them was fantastic. They finished several weeks ahead of schedule, and the hardworking team was always punctual, starting work promptly at 7am each day. Our project manager was communicative throughout, and the entire crew was friendly and polite. To top it all off, their pricing was very reasonable and we did not get hit with unexpected costs as the project progressed. We would gladly work with Promised Path Landscaping again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality landscaping and hardscaping work!

I cannot express enough how thrilled I am with the incredible transformation of my front and back yard, thanks to Promise Path Landscaping! From the very beginning, their attention to detail and craftsmanship stood out. They took our Yardzen design and brought our vision to life with precision and artistry that exceeded our expectations. We had a large project that required a complete demo and renovation of all our outdoor spaces. Promise Path Landscaping executed our vision with ease. It is clear that Angel's team is skilled and has the experience to execute your vision. What truly impressed me was their professionalism throughout the entire process. Angel's team was always punctual, polite and reliable, arriving on time each day and communicating every step of the way. This level of commitment made the renovation feel seamless and stress-free. Promise Path Landscaping masterfully combined a timeless, modern, and Mediterranean design aesthetic for us, creating a harmonious outdoor space that reflects both elegance and comfort. Their ability to blend these styles added a unique charm to our property that I absolutely adore. They took our designs and worked with us to make modifications. Angel is incredibly patient, and his team makes sure that you get exactly what you want, even if it means making adjustments or changes. Not only did they execute our concept beautifully, but they also did so without exceeding our budget. Their ability to deliver high-quality work while being mindful of costs is truly commendable. That was one of the key reasons we chose to work with Promise Path Landscaping! Angel thought outside the box and got creative so that we could get most of the features we really wanted in our yard without going over budget. If you’re looking for a landscaping team that combines skill, reliability, and an eye for detail, look no further than Promise Path Landscaping. They transformed our outdoor space into a stunning Mediterranean oasis, and I couldn’t be happier! Highly recommend!

Promised Path was absolutely terrific from energized start to polished finish. Angel Carrasco and his crew were so professional and personable, and completely dedicated to bringing to life the design for our once-desolate and beyond-ugly backyard. As the work progressed various challenges arose, from an excess of concrete having been poured in the 1970s to unexpectedly massive tree roots from our 70 foot tree. Design alterations were necessary and Angel and his crew went above and beyond with creativity and workmanship. The cedar walkway they created is so beautiful it should be featured in a magazine. At every step of the way our desires and concerns were respectfully acknowledged and acted upon. Installation of a fountain was the perfect final touch, along with lighting that we hadn’t thought was possible. The resulting project went beyond our dreams: a beautiful oasis of a backyard, a serene and beautiful retreat. We’ve had multiple follow-up visits to ensure the plantings are healthy and to replace the few that needed it, and a cheerful promise from Mr. Carrasco to call him if we need anything adjusted or enhanced. He has been better than his word. Angel Carrasco is the best contractor we have ever worked with and we would work with him again in a heartbeat.

I recently hired Ángel and his team for a complete landscaping project at my home, and I could not be more thrilled with the results. From start to finish, they displayed exceptional professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail. Of note, I was impressed with how hard his guys worked throughout the the six week project. When it came to execution, the crew was punctual, courteous, and incredibly skilled. Thanks to Ángel, my front is now a modern oasis, and the envy of the neighborhood. Already thinking about another project for my backyard! I highly recommend Ángel and his them to anyone looking for top-notch landscaping.

We worked with Angel and Promised Path on our backyard remodel inclusive of decking, walls, concrete, jacuzzi and countertops. Angel is a subject matter expert, organized, responsive and efficient. Not only did he build to plan but also made some design and lighting recommendations that really added to the look of the backyard. He was committed to delivering exactly what was designed and decided on. He was there every morning to be sure that the team for the day was clear on what was happening and we were all aligned and questions were answered. He and his team are a pleasure to work with and may be the most punctual people I have ever met:) The final product is fantastic and we love spending time in our new backyard! We would not only use Angel and Promised Path again in the future but would recommend them to anyone looking to build and/or landscape their backyard.

After many years of researching and talking to landscapers about our backyard project we were hooked after talking to Angel at Promised Path. Our project was big and very difficult, but Angel was completely confident that his crew could do the job, and they did. Our job involved demolition of all the concrete and hauling it all out by hand. It was a huge job, but his guys worked from the minute they arrived in the morning to the end of the day…always smiling and always so polite. Also included in the remodel was a new deck, new concrete, retaining wall, custom built BBQ, fire pit, new irrigation with drains, lighting, and planting. We love our new space, and we could not be happier to have worked with Angel, Salvador and their hardworking crew. We highly recommend Promised Path.

Angel, Sal, and the rest of the team did a wonderful job renovating our entire backyard while collaborating with our pool company and their subcontractors. Promised Path was very professional, kept us on budget, and executed flawlessly even when we made changes to our plan. Highly recommended. They were always on time and communication was good. Thank you!

Angel and his crew did an outstanding job, turning our backyard into a dream come true!!! They were honest and transparent about everything. They also had reasonable prices compared to the competition. Highly recommended!

They did a complete redo of our landscaping and we couldn't be happier. Super professional, on-time, on budget, and very responsive. They did everything - plants, lighting, hardscaping, irrigation. We love our 'new' house! Would definitely recommend.

We needed some major concrete work in our backyard. We were impressed with the quality of work and the professionalism of Angel and his crew. The job was completed on time as promised.

It was a pleasure to work with Angel and his team at Promised Path. We built our dream house, and Promised Path not only executed the plans in a timely high quality way, but they also added value with real time brainstorming and ideas to further enhance the project. His team fully executed: flat work, drainage, plantings, irrigation, and a fully functioning green roof. All look amazing. Thank you for making our dreams come true.

Promised Path just completed an outstanding backyard renovation for us. Angel, the owner of the company, is an outstanding communicator and an honest man. He had fantastic ideas and lots of patience. We would absolutely hire this company again. He works really hard for his clients and came in exactly on the budgeted amount. In addition, his company will be making frequent visits over the next few months to make sure everything is working as it should. Now THAT is fantastic customer service!

We had a great experience working with Promised Path. They paid attention to details, were honest, kept us informed through the process, flexible and open to changes, and best of all took great care of us.

Angel and Promised Path did an amazing job with our landscape project. Angel ensured that the quality and attention to detail was spot on. Angel didn't cut any corners and it was though this was his backyard they were working on. He listened to our feedback and executed on any changes we wanted without hesitation. His pricing was fair and we enjoyed the entire process. We would recommend Angel and Promised Path without hesitation. He was trustworthy, had excellent ideas and had vision on what would look the best.

We were looking for a sleek and contemporary look in landscaping our new home and Promised Path delivered! Angel, the owner, is great to work with. He has an excellent eye for design and detail, is very communicative, and knowledgeable. Salvador, the project manager, was equally amazing, easy to talk to, and extremely organized. The crew were very hardworking, respectful, and dedicated in making the project a reality. Of course any large scale projects has a few hiccups. They were responsive when the few minor ones did arise and followed through to its resolution each time. They collaborated well with us, as well as the other contractors including our pool builder. The end result is that we are very happy and love the beautiful outdoor spaces that they created for us. We truly appreciate all that Promised Path has done to make it happen!

Promised Path did a great job transforming our backyard from a patch of grass and cement into a beautiful space my family can use. We had a basic idea of what we wanted (fireplace, BBQ island etc), but Angel and his crew took it to the next level with a functional and beautiful living area. We couldn't be happier with our new backyard and love showing it off.

I 100% recommend this company, excellent work, and friendly staff. I had a nightmare with other contactors but he knew exactly what I needed.

I think everyone has heard of the nightmare contractor stories. However, we've been so fortunate to have Angel, Sal and the rest of the crew working on our remodel. During the pandemic, we built a pool, totally redid our hardscape in the front/back yard, built a BBQ island, and remodeled inside our home as well. From day one, Angel has been very communicative with not only us, but the other two contractors that we had working on our home. When problems arose, specifically, we had some discoloration with our retaining wall and the stucco didn't match the exterior of our home, he was quick to address the issue. In fact, he went as far to hire the same company who did our exterior home stucco to get the exact match at no cost to us. Also, when we had some issues come up with our HOA, he participated on our zoom meeting to help resolve any concerns our HOA might have had. Even though, we're not completely finished with our home, we've been so pleased with the overall aesthetic and craftsmanship of the work that he has completed thus far. Angel clearly stands by his work and takes pride in the business that he's created.

We recently complete a complete backyard remodel project with Promised Path and couldn't be happier with the result. From design, to demolition, to construction to completion, Promised Path handled it all and the results are getting jaw-dropping reactions from our friends and family. Our job involved new concrete, a deck with spa, a custom bbq island and fire pit, new irrigation/drains, landscaping and lighting. It was a pleasure working with Angel, his project manager Salvador and their hardworking and courteous crew. Highly recommend!

We hired angel from Promised Path Landscaping on June 29th 2021. We gave him a deposit of $1,000 to design our backyard. July came and we had not heard from him. We have not received any plans from him. We called and he did not respond, we texted he did not respond. September 19th we asked for $1,000 deposit to be returned he refused. Angel if you are reading this I would still like to have my thousand dollars back. Until then, I will continue to post on every site that you advertised on. Sincerely, Lisa from Escondido

Angel and his crew worked very hard to make our backyard a great retreat and entertaining place. The design, quality of workmanship, and value were fantastic.

Angel and his crew did another amazing job on our La Jolla home. The entire crew is professional, clean and most importantly PAYS ATTENTION TO DETAIL. I would not hire any other crew for my jobs!

We are so glad we hired a professional for our backyard renovation. As an interior designer, I had a very clear plan and vision for the space. I was very concerned I would not find someone that could work with my vision and execute it. Angel, listened to my design plan and followed it perfectly. His crew was always on time and Angel was always just a text away. Thanks Angel!

The team at Promised Path Landscape was fantastic, and we’d highly recommend them for any type of landscape and hardscape construction. We all know that living through construction is never “fun”, but Promised Path was great to work with, and most importantly they weren’t happy until we were. A+ in professionalism, communications and execution. We had a new home without ANY exterior work completed when we bought it. We needed everything - we had nothing but DIRT everywhere! They completely transformed our front, back and side yards. They did concrete work (traditional, Santa Barbara finish, smooth finish and board-form finish) custom tile work, retaining walls, drainage, exterior lighting and all-new landscaping and watering systems. They even built custom fences and fire-pit and put in a turf putting green and dog area!! Promised Path did all of this work on time, on budget, and the results are amazing. No surprises - no shocking last minute change-orders – and no push-back on thi

I hired Promised Path to do both hardscaping and landscaping at my house. The job included building a multi-tiered walkway from the sidewalk to the front door (including lights and pilasters), building a retaining wall in the backyard, and installing decorative travertine in certain areas of the walway. After the hardscape construction was complete, Promised Path planted a few dozen plants throughout the yard, installed a drip sprinkler system, and installed landscape lighting. I was extremely pleased with the work Promised Path did. Our yard came out even better than we had hoped. Promised Path had many suggestions, such as which style retaining wall would look good, which we really appreciate. The customer service from Angel and Salvador was superb. They were really helpful and flexible through the entire project, and were willing to do many little things to really make our house look great. Some of these things were in the original plan and some were not. I have worked with many contractors and would only recommend a few of them. Promised Path is definitely one of those companies.

Very pleased with the outcome of our pool concrete project. Easy to work with on time and thorough. I would hire again.

Angel and his crew were amazing! He developed an excellent hardscape and landscape plan for my new home that I was so happy with! The crews he had at my home showed up as expected, worked hard all day, were polite and always cleaned up after themselves. I would highly recommend Promised Path!

Angle and his landscape crew created exactly what was designed and with such professionalism on a difficult project in Del Mar. This was a layout with very specific details and an intricate build. As a designer, I am always searching for professional landscape companies to work with to install the vision I have laid out for the client. So far, I have only been impressed by a few out there and Promised Path is one of the good ones. The work was done very well and Angle was very easy to work with. I look forward to the next project that we can work together on.

Angel, the owner, and I had a very open conversation during our 1st meeting where I shared my design ideas and how we were going to use our backyard. While other landscaping companies would not even bother to quote or respond back, he came to our 2nd meeting with finished plans with complete details including additional design ideas, plant selection and suggestions on how to make my landscape design better along with a very attractive quote. The project started on time and finished 2 weeks earlier than planned. They never pulled the crew (great guys, very considerate, great workmanship, always on time) from my project. Did not come up with any hidden charges and were great to work with through out the entire time even including the slight revisions I made during the construction. Salvador, the project manager, was on-site almost every day but was in constant contact during the entire project regardless and always got back to me very quickly each time. I highly recommend them and now would not bother calling anyone else.

After multiple bids from other landscape companies, we ultimately decided to hire Promised Path for our complete front and backyard landscape renovation. After many conversations with Salvador and Angel, my husband and I felt confident that having Salvador as the Project Manager our project would be completed on time, within budget and up to our standards. Our experience with other landscape contractors at other homes has taught us that communication between both parties will ensure the project is done properly. And that is exactly what happened. Salvador was on-site almost daily and was in constant communication with us during the entire project. I would text/call him with questions, requesting changes, etc. and he was always on top of getting back to us. He really made our experience excellent. The crew at Promised Path arrived each day on time and worked hard. I was extremely impressed by the team’s dedication to our project. Our neighbors have hired contractors that take on too many concurrent projects and end up having a single worker barely making progress. We were thrilled to came home each day to see the enormous amount of work that had been completed. We are extremely happy with our new front and backyard! Highly recommend hiring Promised Path!

Great team and the absolute best in the San Diego / Chula Vista Area!!! I pursued many other landscaping companies, but only Promised Path gave me the trust, assurance and confidence that the job would be done right the first time and only time!!! Promised Path devotes the entire team to your landscaping project from beginning to end, so you end up with your final landscaping project relatively fast and very satisfying. Salvador (lead foreman) is very detail oriented and provides honest recommendations and advice for your front or backyard desires.

Promised Path Landscape did a fantastic job on my new patio. High quality pavers and turf. Creative design and expertise installation. Very thorough and communicative during entire process. I love my yard, they created more than I could have imagined. I'm looking forward to enjoying it for years to come

Angel and Salvador provided excellent service and followed through on the commitments of our contract. This is our third time choosing Promised Path as our landscape experts. We had previous projects that were executed by their team. This time we had a vision of upgrading our yard and we were impressed with Salvador’s feedback and suggestions. There are many reasons why Promised Path is a trusted landscaping company. Here are our reasons: 1) Experience and expertise are seen through the work of his team; 2) Angel and Salvador were great to work with. We had a few changes to our initial contract and without hesitation they listened and were very flexible with our ideas; and 3) they strive for excellence and it was seen even on the last day of work - all trash were picked up, yard was neat and tidy and a formal walk-through was conducted to meet our expectations. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Promised Path!

Angel and his crew brought our design to life in record time and it looks beautiful! We used another company for the design and had Angel bid on the design last minute - we wanted to get started right away. He was the lower and most honest bid so we went with him. His crew was great and did very quick work that turned out to also be very high quality. I debated on a 4 star review only for a moment because I do with that Angel had communicated more at each phase of the project because I felt like it was almost happening too fast and some of the details we lost control of. In hindsight I would have taken more initiative and been more of a watch dog. But regardless, the project turned out amazing and we are in love with our new backyard and I would refer anyone to him.

We hired Promised Path for a complete remodel of both our front and back yard including landscaping, concrete and decking. Angel immediately won us over with his responsiveness, creative design concept and enthusiasm for the job. He understood our vision and created a design that transformed our yard into a spectacular retreat. This was a large project that was well organized and completed within the projected timeframe. During the process, the Promised Path team was hard working, friendly and professional and left the job site clean every day. Angel’s attention to detail, flexibility and openness to changes as the project evolved made him a pleasure to work with. The final outcome exceeded our expectations and have been truly enjoying our yard for the past seven months! We highly recommend Angel and his team!

Working with Angel, Salvador and the entire Promised Path team was a great experience. We met with multiple landscaping companies and chose Promised Path for a full front and backyard project. From the start to the finish the team was friendly, professional, and hard working. The team delivered very high quality work and took pride in doing the job right. I really appreciated how responsive Angel and Salvador were throughout the process and that the project was delivered as envisioned and on schedule. I highly recommend Promised Path.

Angel and his crew are professional, timely, and the work is professionally done. We had a full back yard remodel completed and they stayed on top of the timeline that was outlined. The communication with the owner was good and most important, our space looks great! Being working professionals with little time to spend picking out aesthetics and plants, we trusted Angels choices for finishes, plants, colors, equipment and design changes and the results we are very happy with. I highly recommend!

Promised Path was fantastic. They came highly recommended and exceeded my expectations. Everyone that worked on our project was considerate, friendly, timely and always left the job site cleaned up. Our General Contractor commented several times at how quickly and what excellent quality was happening by the Promised Path team. I have never filled out a recommendation on line but Promised Path deserves this review. They even "fixed" some problems in the work product of other on site contractors. I am very pleased with their work and wish each member of Promised Path all the best.

Promised Path was recommended to us by Alison Wellington Toth, a landscape pool designer. We could not have made a better choice than Angel and his entire crew. We were in a new home, so we were starting with a blank slate. When we first met with Angel, we knew immediately, by his manner that he would be great. He listened to everything, made wonderful suggestions of his own and it was apparent that he was a true professional. We knew we could trust him implicitly. His communication from the beginning throughout the entire project was amazing, never lacking. He called with updates daily when we weren't around, always letting us know where he stood timewise. Even if they weren't working one day, he made sure we knew what was happening. He sent pictures as he went along, so that we could see the progress. Nothing was an issue, even with changes throughout the project. If he wasn't around, he made sure that Salvatore, was available. Between the two of them, there was always someone to take care of things. His entire crew was great, working harder than we could have imagined to make it perfect. It was obvious how it important it was to all of them that we were completely happy. Their patience was infinite! The quality of the work is first rate, from the stonework to the plants used. We could not have been more impressed! We would recommend Promised Path Landscaping, without any reservations, and know that it will be a great experience.

We hired Promised Path to update our backyard in Carlsbad, Ca. They did a wonderful job! Not only did Angel have great ideas, he was able to help refine some of our ideas to create the backyard we hoped for. The entire crew at this company was polite, professional and friendly. The work was done carefully and on time! The whole experience was a pleasure and I would hire him again for future projects. Thank you Promised Path!!

We began discussions with Promised Path in July of 2017 to do a complete backyard remodel. Our pool deck and surrounding area were in desperate need of an upgrade from the original 1976 build. Right from the start, we felt understood and comfortable with Sal. He was knowledgeable, listened to our ideas and offered some great ones of his own. We broke ground in September and by mid-November had a gorgeous backyard! The professionalism shown from the top down cannot be highlighted enough. We were kept informed every day and the worksite was tidied up daily. If you want a reliable, honest and talented company you have found it!

Very glad we hired Angel and his team at Promised Path! His modern/contemporary aesthetic and hard-working team made for a winning combo. Design was a breeze since he knew all the details we liked (sharing images on Houzz worked well too). Unlike other landscapers we had worked with, he was a wealth of knowledge with both hardscape and plants (lots of guys say they can do the job, but in the end they don't always use quality parts or know how to design well and make things flow). We are SO happy with our amazing backyard and new fire pit with bench, pergola, bocce ball court, succulents, king palms, sand box, and even a chalkboard for the kids. They did such a good job that we hired them a few months later to re-do our side yard. At some point we plan on hiring them to update our front yard! Thrilled to have found them. Thanks, Angel!

Angel and his team did a job well done. We told Angel what we wanted to do for our backyard and he nailed it. He did said that it would be completed in 4 weeks however it was completed sooner than we expected. Communication was great. He would tell us what they would be working on, what part of our backyard will be completed. He also checked up on our backyard once the project was completed. We highly recommend Promised Path Landscaping.

If you are looking for a first rate, top-notch landscape and concrete company, The Promised Path is the right one. Angel, Salvador and their employees did such a great job, especially since I feel that I am a very particular person that is attentive to details. They went above and beyond my expectations doing all the things that made my yard great instead of just good – extra drains, suggestions on steps, and trees. My front yard is next and instead of dreading going through the process of finding someone, I will put my trust in these guys and sit back and relax when it all comes together. If you want it done right, with honest people that communicate with you every step of the way, The Promised Path is the company for you.

We now have the yard of our dreams thanks to Promised Path! To say we are thrilled with the results would be an understatement, we are absolutely in love with it and are still in awe. We highly recommend Promised Path to our friends and family. They were very professional every step of the way and were great with communicating and keeping us involved in the project. We don't even want to leave the house because our backyard is now better than any hotel or restaurant we would want to go to! We just love it! The design, execution, and attention to detail were impeccable and we are so happy with our new front yard, backyard, fence, and driveway. We highly recommend them if you considering a front or backyard project! They were always on time, professional, respectful, and ready to get the job done. The whole team is amazing. A+++

Angel with Promised Path did a great job on our back yard remodel and we have recommended him to our friends and family. The work and materials were all top notch and our yard turned out exactly as we hoped including a back yard fireplace, waterfall & new pavers. This was only phase one of the project as we will be having him back to complete the front yard this coming Spring. More review to follow......

We recently installed a pool in our backyard and hired Promised Path to do all of the landscaping and concrete work around the pool. Angel and his team did a fantastic job and the backyard looks amazing. Angel was easy to work with and provided excellent suggestions on how to make the project look great. Throughout the process I really got the impression that they wanted to produce an amazing result, as opposed to just getting the job finished and moving on. We have had bad experiences in the past with landscapers who start the job, then disappear for weeks to work on other projects before returning. Promised Path had the resources to do the job, and once they started, they continued through completion. Overall an excellent experience and excellent results.

My husband and I are engineers, therefore quality and workmanship are important to us. We were pretty skeptical with most landscaping contractors with the deliver of their work. Finding a landscaping company that is trustworthy is not easy. We can’t be more happy with the results of Promised Path Landscaping’s work. We are lucky to have found Angel and Promised Path Landscaping. They deliver their services and quality to the mark. It is a well experienced landscaping company. They know what they are doing!!! At every phase of our project the Promised Path Landscaping team delivered great results. Our previous yard was mostly concrete patio. It was demolished quickly with no mess left behind. The team cleaned as they go! Our new patio was done within a week after start of project, and the wooden deck was done the following week. Promised Path Landscaping’s services are outstanding. We had some mis-communication with the plan as how we wanted the wooden deck to be. Angel was willing to rework it without making it a big deal. That alone is worth $1000s, because he made the process stress free and reworked it to perfection. Our new patio and deck turned out great. We look forward to coming home each day to enjoy our new living space. Promised Path Landscaping would be a company that we will definitely use again and recommend to our friends and family for their high quality, great service, and most importantly their trustworthiness.

We worked with Promised Path (Sal) to put in our backyard from plans developed by another landscape architect. We contacted numerous landscaping companies who either were too busy or just didn't call back after the estimate process which was very disappointing. I finally located PP from this website. Sal did the estimate and won the job. He was honest, competitive, and dependable and really the reason we selected PP. We particularly appreciated how PP made recommendations to improve on the original plan and to offer cost savings alternatives. This firm firm was honest and forthright throughout the process and we highly recommend them. The Bakers

Update: After posting this pleasant review on Promised Path Landscape, I am reluctant, but feel it is necessary to retract this review. Promised Path was engaged a second time to complete this project as part of a phased-approach. Angel, the owner, who worked with us on the first phase, came to quote the second phase and meet with us. After 3 months and several phone calls we never received a response. This was very disappointing and opened our eyes to someone who is completely non-responsive and unable to commit to completing a job that he agreed to finish. Homeowners who spend a significant amount of money with these contractors need rights. And need a place to speak the truth about contractor who over-promise and under-deliver. Did our first phase turn out great? Yes it did, however, their were some complications we had during the first phase that should've opened our eyes. Now we know that we had dealt with a contractor who wasn't really interested in our project, but was more than happy to cash our checks. ****************************************************************************************************************** After buying my house in July, I was excited by to move in, but overjoyed to fix my backyard. We were lucky to buy a house that had an extremely large backyard, however, we had no idea what we were going to do. We truly had a blank canvas. After having 3 contractors come by, all with average to poor ideas; we finally found Promised Path Landscape. Angel, Owner of Promised Path, was excited to see the yard and before we knew it, a design was presented. The one thing that stood out with Angel from day one, was that he was more than willing to accept our ideas and incorporate them into our design. That was important to me because often times I have an idea of what I want. Angel used our feedback and style preferences to design a beautiful concrete patio, pergola and built-in BBQ. But that wasn’t all. Angel also presented a cool idea for a raised deck lounge area at the back of the property with a beautiful concrete step walkway. With a design complete, we were excited to start! And not only were we excited to start, but we gave Angel a deadline that was tough to meet. After signing on the dotted line, we still had three weeks before shovels were in the ground. And then one day later, Angel called me and said “I want to start now if that is ok with you…” Yes! Angel and his crew are efficient and effective. They had demo done quickly and were simultaneously preparing the large patio for concrete. A sign of a well-organized team and company. Construction went great and as the El Nino approached the timeline became even more critical. Angel and his crew worked fast and even accepted one major change order that added to the scope. After 3-4 weeks of construction, Phase 1 of our project was done and we were happy. Even when minor issues arose with subcontractors, Angel and his main guy were there to assist and ensure the project was completed. We couldn’t be more happy! And we are excited to explore Phase 2 in 2016! Check out Angel and Promised Path Landscape for your San Diego landscaping design and construction needs.

Promised Path Landscaping was sensational. We first heard about them through a neighbor, so we went and saw their work and we were really impressed, we went ahead and contacted them and they came to give us a quote right away. The meeting was very pleasant, we hit it off right away and thought we could have great chemistry through the process. We gave them our deposit, and the rest is history. The CEO kept telling us "dont worry you will be really happy" and my goodness, we were astounded when we saw the finished work, our back yard looks like a magazine photo, simply sensational!! The quality was first class as well as the customer service. I strongly recommend them, anybody that comes to our house to visit they immediately comment on our backyard! Aside from the first class work they do, more than anything they were trustworthy which is something we were really looking for.

Promised Path was fantastic. We interviewed 5 landscape companies and got bids from all for basically the same work. We had a lot of existing hardscape and needed to take out some flower beds and grass to make room for a spa and fire ring. Promised paths bid was in the middle for price but off the charts for artistic ideas and input. Angel listened carefully to what we thought we wanted, assessed the existing layout and came up with some great recommendations to make things flow together. We would not be nearly as happy had we gone with what we originally came up with or gone with another landscaper who each bid what we asked for without any creative input. Promised path was on-time, on budget, professional, courteous and responsive. Thank you Promised Path, could not be happier.

Promised Path Landscaping is truly remarkable. Before contracting Promised Path Landscaping, we called many other companies that did not understand what we wanted or wanted to make changes to our design. Once we meet Angel Carrasco we were very impressed with his level of expertise, customer service, honesty, professionalism and the passion he has for his work. We explained to him that we wanted a modern backyard along with both sides of the house and he truly delivered beyond our expectations. His team was always on time, very respectful and delivered a high quality work in which we appreciate the attention to detail that was given to our project from our concrete design, in ground fire pit, detached pergola, turf, arrogation, accentuating lighting and great selection of drought tolerant plants. We now have a sophisticated modern outdoor space that we truly love and are thrilled about. We highly recommend Promised Path Landscaping to anyone who wants to enjoy their yard in a way that makes it special every time. Angel Thank you and your team for making our backyard such a wonderful retreat.

We needed a complete overhaul of our entire back and side yard, which is probably at LEAST double the size of most homes' yards, and easily the scariest yard they've ever seen. We knew it was going to be a lot of work, a lot of demo, and we were on a pretty tight budget. We hired Promised Path based on some coworkers' recommendations and we loved their designs. They worked with our budget, took our ideas, and pictures that we sent them of things we liked, and worked with us to put together a great design that took into account the functionality, use of space, and water-wise landscaping we had in mind. The end result was something that all of our friends and family say looks like is straight out of a home magazine. After the project was over, they were so busy, but they still tried to be available to help us troubleshoot the irrigation or provide advice on the plants to figure out what the best watering schedules were. Our decomposed granite pathways seemed to be still loose in certain areas, and they didn't hesitate to come back to fix it, and now it's great. Angel, Salvador, and the rest of the guys are professional, understanding, and great to work with. Communication was sometimes difficult because they have various jobs going on at once, so we make sure to follow up, and in the end, they always end up pulling through and delivering an amazing, functional, unique space that works for the type of home we have. We would definitely hire them again if we had to do it all over.

I got a small yard, about 24' by 32' in a twin home. I told Angel my vision and he came up with a design drawing. I called in a few times asking to modify the design and Angel was very patient and accommodating. Once a start date was set the guys showed up every day, worked hard, kept an organized work space and got it done on time and on budget. even after the job was done and paid for I asked for touchup and the guys showed up the same weekend to address it. great service and care. My backyard was a mess, nothing but dirt and rocks without any useable space. Now I have a beautiful outdoor living space.

With plans for a complete re-do in our very large back and side yards - including a patio structure, pool, and all new drought tolerant landscaping - we met with many landscapers before deciding to work with Angel. It was a great decision. Angel has a passion for what he does. He's enthusiastic and creative yet thoughtful about the look AND the functionality of the space being created. From design to implementation Angel provided guidance and recommendations while always remaining open and flexible to our ideas and requests - including changes from what was originally planned (scope of the job and/or design) or revisions to work that was done. With materials, he brought samples that we could choose from or brought us directly to the places where we could see and choose the materials ourselves. His work crew is made up of a team of men who show up on time, work incredibly hard and are kind and respectful - something we see as a reflection of Angel. We like that his team stands by their work, continuing to come by over the next 3 months to ensure that everything continues to work properly and look good. We couldn't be happier with the finished result, just stunning!

We used Promised Path to do a turf removal project in our front yard and backyard. They did a great job and finished on schedule and on budget. Angel was on time and his crew was professional. We added several new things to the scope of work after we started the project and they accommodated our changes seamlessly. I would use them again.

We have had a lot of work done over the years inside and outside our house. Angel's firm was the most efficient ever! He overhauled our landscaping in 2 weeks. He and his crew showed up everyday, were pleasant and kept us informed of progress. I highly recommend them.

My husband and I just completed a front and back yard remodel in Del Mar Heights with Promised Path. We initially found them on yelp because of the great reviews. When we looked more closely at their portfolio, both here and on houzz, we liked their aesthetic, so we decided to give them a try. Overall, we had a great experience. During the design phase, Angel was very receptive to our ideas and spent as much time as we needed getting things right (we had a very specific concept in mind but really needed his help to realize it). During the implementation phase, his crew was very professional and always showed up on time. They completed the project on time and without any issues. Lastly of course, the result is beautiful and we couldn't be happier. We now have a beautiful wood fence, new concrete walkway, drought tolerant landscaping throughout, vegetable beds, and still a nice patch of grass in the back for our kids to play in. Everything is inline with the contemporary look that we were going for. I also really appreciate the fact that they stick around and check in over the next 3 months to make sure things are getting established.

Angel's vision was genius. We have a tiny backyard and he made every square inch beautiful. We got many quotes from different contractors, and he was the best value by far. His crew was very professional and they finished our job ahead of schedule. I recommended Angel to a friend (who also used Angel) and many other friends plan on using him in the future, after seeing our beautiful little backyard sanctuary. Trust me, San Diego, this is your guy!

Angel was great to work with to realize our vision for our smaller yard space. He had great recommendations for both the seating area and the plant selection, and I'm glad he pushed those recommendations - those areas turned out great. Angel and his team worked to get the job done in much less time than I would have imagined. The only thing we weren't as satisfied with was the turf portion of the project - it looked much different than the product we had picked out from the sample. Regardless, we are happy overall with the project, and have already recommended Angel to a handful of our neighbors.

I've worked with Angel for over 15 years and find him to be an excellent and highly professional landscape contractor. I highly recommend him for your landscape projects!

I had recently had my backyard done by an unlicensed contractor and they did a horrible job by doing a sloppy work with the stamped concrete, did not finish the fire pit, the synthetic grass was not put in, and the planters were left with dirt and holes. I was looking around for a new landscaper when I came across Promised Path Landscaping. I had called and spoke to Angel, a licensed contractor, who I had explained our situation to. I scheduled an appointment and he came the next day. During the appointment, Angel explained in detail what needed to be done and how he could fix our backyard to make it how I originally wanted it. After giving us a quote, which was surprisingly not much more than the unlicensed contractor’s price, I scheduled a date for him to start. The next week came and the process began which only took a week to finish. My backyard looked exactly like how I wanted it done. All planters had palm trees and filled in with small plants and mulch which is being watered by a drip system he installed. The fire pit was completely finished. He added the fire ring and was able to fill the pit with lava rocks. The synthetic grass was installed and looks outstanding giving our backyard some color. And to top it off, he also sealed our concrete and the stones around the fire pit so it would not discolor over time. I could have not been happier with the work done by Promised Path Landscaping. It is definitely worth paying a little extra for a professional like Angel. I would absolutely recommend his work to anyone who is looking for a licensed, honest, and experienced landscaper for a reasonable price.

Angel and his crew took our mud pit and turned it into a relaxing oasis in 2 weeks. The team was very professional from start to finish. The guys were done on schedule and stuck to the budget we agreed upon. We couldn't be happier with how it turned out. They put in lighting, concrete, landscaping, a containment wall, and a small water feature- they can do it all.

Its taken me about a year to write this review and it comes with some hesitation but with lots of thought. Its was my first time dealing with a home project of this size and I learned a lot. The crew Angel has working for him were all very polite. I was comfortable around them however, there were details that could have been handled differently. Angel can be a bit pushy but workable, trustworthy, but forgetful. Cost of the project $15K. Items; cement patio the length of the house approx. 50'l. X12w to 15w in front of patio door, a raised cement patio approx. 12x18, 12" high with water feature and two seating benches on either side, a fire-pit within a cement border and sod with chicken wire beneath for gophers, stepping cement squares with stone on the south and north side of the grass area, no other landscaping done. Project timeline: October - December 2013. Will include pictures later. 1. Start of the project. I had things around my yard that were given to me; chimes, little figurines, and clay pots. During project preparation these items were moved to one corner of the yard and piled/stacked on top of each other and items were broken. 2. Angel worked through the project pretty quickly, it was a bit concerning. So I asked if perhaps he misunderstood my timeline. Come to find out he miss understood and thought I needed project done a month earlier. 3. Work crew showed up on time and worked consistent hours. I have several dogs, so I would inspect the area before allowing my dogs in the yard. Sadly, I would find nails, screws, wires, besides light trash and water bottles. 4. In our discussions, we discussed a wood inlaid patio, ipe wood he said. As the project proceeded it turns out he didn't use the wood because of the cost. I was disappointed, $15K is no chump change. 5. The yard was completed and my initial reaction was very pleased, since my yard was all dirt previously. I've had a year to settle and think about this. During the project. Angel kept making a point of pointing out that he was giving me a great deal, $15K! Here's my experience: 1: I had to request a timer be placed for my sprinkler system, he placed a battery operated timer, not the electric one I had expected (ooops discussed not on the contract), 2: the water feature kept clogging up. The feature guy replaced it with an I water feature and have not had a problem since. 3: Could not find the main for the backyard. After much hesitation called Angel who sent a worker out. Turns out the casing for the main was never installed, it was corrected. 4: large moisture stain on cement in only one corner of cement slab (see pictures) still waiting to hear back. This stain has been there six months after slab was laid. A 3, 6 month follow up would have been nice to see how things settled and check on sprinklers. The gentleman that built the pump came and placed an electric one within the pool of the feature, have had no problems since. The fire-pit was completed in middle November, it was used in late December at an event I hosted. The fire-pit cracked in 6 different places due to the heat of the fire. I spoke with Angel and he claimed its natural. I will add that there is no fire-lining within the fire-pit and the fire-pit wall is 51/2" wide. The patio laid the length of the house has several cracks on it as well within the first 6th months. Again, I was told cement cannot be guaranteed, but he sent someone to do stress cuts. The cement finishers did a very nice job finishing and making the cuts on the cement, looks beautiful except for the cracks and the large moisture stain. Am I disappointed, of course I am. I used a non licensed contractor in my last project to do a large project yard in my previous home; Several cement areas, sitting wall, two large patios longer and wider than this one, and front patio with slate, cement walkway around the house and steps with lights to a pool and jacuzzi and walk area, and widened driveway. In 6 years I lived in that home, not one crack on the cement. I would have liked to have seen Angel more on the project particularly at the end of the day. If I had to do it again, I would have a clear view of what I wanted and obtain everything in writing. My recommendation; include details of expectation in contract, not just in the initial discussion verbally, make sure you speak up if something is being overlooked or forgotten. Don't assume anything! I expected better customer care, still hopeful he will address the ugly water stain.

My husband and I are very meticulous in everything we do, especially when it comes to home improvement projects. We needed a good landscape company to remodel our backyard and add curb appeal to our front yard. Being the second owner, we wanted to add our personal touch to the entire house, including the yard. There were already existing structures in the yard that we wanted to keep to avoid incurring more expenses: built in BBQ with a huge granite tile countertop, grass area, small concrete patio. We wanted to make it more modern and inviting. Needless to say, we had a budget to adhere to and a long wish list to satisfy. We interviewed a few companies. Even before we met with Angel (the owner of the company), I already liked his designs/projects showcased on Yelp. We met and immediately liked his PR, personality, and ideas. Among the 3 companies, we chose him despite the fact that he will be more expensive. He quickly gained our trust and we were confident that he would perform and deliver. We exchanged ideas several times. He listened to my ideas, since he knew that I like designing living spaces and he saw how my home was designed interiorly, I guess that made him trust me more, too. My husband and I are perfectionists, so we want everything done correctly and to our standards. I think Angel got that right away after a few phone calls and texts from us (almost daily), asking about the details and progress of the project. I think there could have been room for improvement in communication as far as what exactly was going to be done for that specific day. There was a rough timeline on the contract, but sometimes it was not quite the same as what was being done at the moment. It was important to me because payments were due each time there was something done. Picking out plants could have been improved too. Our initial agreement was Angel or his staff was going to take me to the nursery to pick out the plants/trees I like. I wasn’t sure if it was due to time constriction or schedule conflicts that I asked and waited a few times for the nursery trip schedule, but it never happened. Instead, he just emailed us pictures of plants to look at, and he later stopped by to describe these plants in person while we look at the pictures. Again, being meticulous and perfectionists, we were a little skeptical about that approach, but Angel told us once again to trust him on this, and we did. I have mixed feelings about the plants. Most of them were the ones I like, but some were not to my liking. When it came time to laying out the mulch in the front yard, we did not like the ones he chose. It looked very messy and not minimalist/modern at all. We asked him to replace it with brown wood chips instead. They moved the mulch to the backyard slope area instead. That extra work could have been prevented if he showed me a sample of that mulch and get approval prior to laying them out. The fact though, that he was willing to work with us to meet our standards was a good thing. He was also specific about the additional costs each time things got changed or added. There were no surprises about the costs/fees. Even on the contract everything was detailed, so you know how much certain things/tasks cost. About his crew: They were always on time. They actually started early, before 8:00 am and finished before 4:00 pm. They were very hard working and polite people. They have good work etiquette and professionalism. It seemed like they take pride in their work/craftsmanship - especially the person who did the wood for the deck, fence, and accent wall. We like the quality of their work. They always cleaned up after working daily. Angel or his lead crew would stop by almost daily to ensure things were progressing smoothly. The entire project finished in about 3 weeks, a little earlier than the expected date, which was a plus. Overall, we were satisfied with the end result. Despite some glitches here and there, we were happy that we now have a modern backyard with a nice seating area around a fire pit. The front yard came out beautifully. It surely added curb appeal to our home. Our neighbors have been complimenting it. Several people even stopped by to ask about the Landscape Company. We can even see cars passing by slowly to admire the front yard. AFTER: I purposely waited several weeks before writing a review to see how everything will stand over time. After 2 months, some of the plants died. I wasn’t sure if it was due to the hot weather or the yard soil wasn’t suitable for the plant choices. The good thing was: Angel would send his staff from time to time to check on things and once they found out about the dying plants, Angel took the initiative to replace some of them with no extra charge. We also found out later on that the faucet in the existing BBQ area was no longer working after they finished the project. My husband’s suspicion was they forgot to reconnect the piping for that faucet. We raised our concern to Angel. He sent his staff a few times to check on it and find out the cause. They couldn’t find it at first. Several days passed and more texts/phone calls were made to get it fixed. His staff wasn’t sure how the “irrigation crew” did it. I suppose there were different crews for different tasks. They have decided that the only way to find out is to dig the already finished yard. So they dug and found out that the water pipe for the BBQ faucet was not reconnected, hence no water supply. They fixed it and cleaned up after. The faucet was working again, but we were left with an area of ruined sod - they said they will replace, they haven’t done so yet. Two days after they fixed the faucet, we had a flood in the backyard when the water sprinklers went off in the morning. Apparently, one of the pipes bursted and left a geyser in our yard. I immediately called Angel and told him about the emergency. He instructed us on how to shut off the main water valve and sent his staff a few hours later. Our suspicion was it had something to do with them previously digging and fixing the water pipe for the faucet in the BBQ area. They said it was one of the “old pipes” and not the one they installed. Regardless of who was to blame, they fixed it. After a huge water bill due to the geyser, so far, everything seems fine. My husband and I really like Angel. We believe he is a good man who truly keeps his words. He wants his clients to be satisfied. That’s why he still checks on us periodically to ensure that things are going smoothly. Yes, mistakes were made, but he did what was necessary to fix the problem(s). I just hope that nothing else breaks down. We love our yard. Our family and friends like it a lot too. We’ve already had a few outdoor parties and we are very proud to showcase it to everyone. If you are considering hiring him, he can truly perform and give you a beautiful yard. My only suggestion is to be as specific as possible and be on top of everything to avoid any miscommunication or misassumption.

I hired Angel to remodel my backyard based on his excellent online reviews. As I could not visualize the potential of my small backyard, I needed someone who had the vision to maximize the space. Angel did just that – my backyard now truly looks bigger and more inviting. His crew were very competent, hard-working , respectful and tidy. As far as improvements in the overall process, I think the communication could have been much better and I feel someone should have been taking notes about what we discussed. I had to re-iterate a few times things I wanted done (items were forgotten over the weeks) –but everything did eventually get done. Also, appointments and days the crew showed up constantly changed at the last minute from what I was initially told so I didn’t feel like I always knew what was going on. The project also took longer than what I was told but I was not in a hurry, so this was not an issue. Lastly, it would have been nice to have been presented more alternatives – especially any options to save money from my initial budget. Angel did show me pictures of the fountain and raised patio but it would have been nice to see various items in person before they were purchased—as well as the plant materials. Overall, however, I am pleased with the outcome and Angel is very accessible by phone and email to answer any questions I may have.

Promised Path came highly recommended to us by some friends that just got their front and back yard done by them. Not only was their pricing competitive, but they provided value-added services that none of the other contractors offered. They assisted with full design and provided great ideas to include into our yard. They are a full-service contractor that does very clean work that's on time and on budget. We are very happy with the services that Promised Path has provided us and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality landscape contractor.

We had a great experience with Promised Path Landscaping Inc. Angel was very professional, communicative and responsive. His crew produced noticeable progress on site every single day. We were always able to get a hold of Angel in a timely manner and he was constantly in communications with us about all aspects of our project. Angel schedules his crew to work on one project at a time, so there was never an issue with no one showing up or delays of the project. They showed up and focused on our backyard; completing the project in about four weeks. We own a new construction house having no yard landscaping / hard-scpaping at all. Angel met with us to survey the back yard and gather information on what we wanted. We asked for a waterfall, a fire-pit, planting areas, grass and concrete walkways. He created two different designs that we chose from. We are so very happy with the end result; I think we have the best backyard in our neighborhood. We love it, it's an amazing entertaining space. The waterfall is so beautiful and adds such great ambiance to the back yard, the sound is so relaxing and is mesmerizing to watch. We've enjoyed hanging out by the fire-pit at night with friends, such a great addition to our backyard! Don't waste your time with other contractors that promise you the sun and moon to get the job and then leave you high and dry once they have your money, call Promised Path Landscaping first and save yourself a lot of money and stress.

We recently contracted with Promised Path to transform our mostly grass front and back yards into xeriscape landscaping and the yard looks fantastic! Angel's crew is not only polite and courteous but also incredibly hard working. They arrive on time, ready to work and they represent the company well. Our project manager encouraged us to go "rock shopping" with him so we would get exactly what we were looking for. They did a great job of following our landscape architects drawings and every time I walk out my front door it puts a smile on my face. In reading other reviews of Promised Path I saw that they received either 1 or 5 stars out of 5. They get a 4 from us. As mentioned above, we are VERY happy with the final appearance of the project. Where they could use some improvement is on communication. When soliciting bids for the project Angel told us that would receive an update of the project every day they were on the job. Our project manager did not do that so we had a couple days of scratching our heads trying to figure out what was going on. I didn't feel daily updates were necessary so it's really not that big a deal but being late for appointments or failing to call when an appointment couldn't be met are bigger issues. Follow-up during our "30 day plant guarantee" was less than ideal but with a little push things were taken care of. The minor hiccups along the way give Promised Path a 4 star rating from us. Our yard looks great and I will, and already have recommend them to friends considering making changes to their landscaping.

We came across Promised Path online and were immediately impressed by the modern designs used in their projects. The craftsmanship and style really stood out from the rest of the contractors we had researched. After the initial visit, Angel was able to come up with a nice, clean design which fit our budget, and incorporated both our ideas and his own. Angel was quick to respond to any questions we had and was very knowledgeable about everything including the concrete, woodwork, water feature, turf and plants. From the start of the project through completion, Angel and his crew were a pleasure to work with. I would definitely recommend Promised Path.

We interviewed several landscaping companies before choosing Promised Path Landscaping (PPL). We were not looking for the cheapest company, but one that could show us that they do quality work at a reasonable price. Angel was nice enough to show us some of the projects that he had done in our neighborhood and we were really impressed! PPL was very professional throughout the whole landscaping process and very attentive to little details ... we are very happy with the work they did for us!

Angel and his whole Promised Path team were exceptional, from the early design phase all the way up until the last touches were completed, they delivered nothing but top notch work. Our family had recently purchased a brand new home with a decent sized backyard and we knew that we wanted to maximize the usage of our yard so that the entire family could enjoy it. Having bought brand new, we knew that we had a blank canvas in which to create our dream backyard. Now the tough part came, which was, how are we going to do it and who will do it for us within our modest budget? After browsing through several beautiful yards on the app Houzz we definitely wanted to mimic some of the modern styles that were displayed on there. We interviewed several contractors but Angel and Promised Path surely stood out. Angel did a great job of talking us through the entire process and we loved his enthusiasm for working and creating a modern designed yard. We wanted everything to be modern with clean straight lines and Angel provided some insight and recommended things that brought our modern dream yard into reality. Working with Angel has been a wonderful experience and the Reyes family highly recommends them for all of your landscaping needs. For anyone reading this looking for a contractor that they can trust and rely on, then look no further cause Angel and his team are your guys! I'm still waiting for some furniture to come in but as soon as they do I'll be sure to update this post with some pictures of our awesome yard!

We couldn't be happier with our new yard. We chose to use Promised Path because of the owner, Angel. He designed a fabulous yard for us and worked within our budget. We had to wait for the actual work to be done because Angel likes to be able to give each job the attention it deserves. Our front and back yards were finished in just under two weeks and the transformation was amazing. Angel stopped by every morning to let us know what the plans were and to answer any questions we had. We didn't have many ideas of what we wanted and Angel's design was perfect. It was a really great experience and while I know our yard will last forever, we look forward to working with Promised Path in the future.

What an experience! I hired Promised Path Landscaping to concrete my side yard just they did at a neighbors house. The communication with Angel was pretty easy and he made the entire process stress free! The project turned about even better than I expected and we are so excited about how it looks. I got a few quotes from other companies and although his quote was the highest I can honestly say it was beyond worth the investment. Angel answered all my questions and explained exactly what was going to happen and when and then actually kept to the schedule and finished on budget. I highly recommend Promised Path Landscaping and will use them in the future

Angel and his team at Promised Path are outstanding! Professional, responsive, timely, and knowledgeable! Angel listened to our desires for a re-landscaped front yard and made our vision a reality! He also fixed a large problem area in our backyard (removing multiple large trees with invasive root structures and grounding out stumps, helping select new privacy trees and installing with proper root containment, resodding and installing accent lighting in back and front. His crew was great - polite, professional, and neat. Angel was extremely honest and demonstrates integrity in all his actions. He took lots of time with us to ensure all our questions were answered and welcomed my involvement in the selection of plant materials and pavers. Completely happy with the services and continuing the relationship with a yard maintenance contract. Also appreciate that Angel is a responsible, above-board employer and does the right thing by his crew with workers' comp, insurance, etc. - he provides a competitive product and we feel good about doing business with him!

Angel is professional, friendly, knowledgeable and honest. Angel and his team demolished our front and back yards and completely relandscaped everything. Working with a plan from another landscape designer, Angel made some suggestions that were cost effective and aesthetically beautiful. His workers were experts in their area, polite, on time and hard workers. From the minute the project started, Angel and his crew were working every day. Angel checked in with us, responded to my emails and calls and made adjustments when necessary. He was on time and on budget. One of the great things about Angel is his ability to work with people, to involve you in the process and to listen to your concerns. He wants his customers to be happy. Even though our project is done, I know I can call Angel if anything comes up and he will come over and take care of it. He knows what he's doing, he's proud of his work and he should be. Great results.

Where do I start? Angel and his team were nothing shy of amazing. I rarely ever take the time to write a review on a business or restaurant, but if it is worth it, I will take the time out of my day to give my two cents. Angel was recommended to me from my uncle who had a friend that used Angel and his team and assured me that his work is awesome and best of all, affordable. We recently bought a home in Eastlake Chula Vista and had a clean slate of a yard that needed to be done. I had met quite a few contractors that just didn't seem to fit the type of people I was willing to work with. When initially meeting Angel, I already received that vibe that I didn't receive from the other contractors that approached me. He listened to my proposal of my yard and even answered any questions that I had. His in depth knowledge of the material and everything that he would be using reassured me that this was the right guy to go with. I really appreciated the honesty when helping us find a way to make it better than the idea I had already had and gave out some awesome ideas that I ended up going with in the end. His company was well organized, contracts were understandable, and his workers were professional. Every time I had a question or concern I would receive a response in a timely manner. Although, the best part was, I rarely had to contact him, because he maintained great communication throughout the entire process. It was very reassuring that I was filled in throughout the process and was informed of every step that was going to happen before they actually did it. When the concrete was laid out, he made sure I was satisfied with the borders before actually laying out the cement. Being a part of the process really made me feel comfortable that the job was being done properly. I have heard from other neighbors that whomever they used didn't involve them as much and just completed the job. The other great part was that no payment was made until that specific job was completed and I was fully satisfied. I mean, who wants to prepay for work before it is done? Definitely another plus in my book. His team was very friendly as well and worked very diligently to accomplish the job ahead of the 3 week deadline. I'll also have to give a shout out to Salvador, who was very engaged in our process. He even went with us to the nursery and Home Depot to pick out the plants and flowers that we wanted in our yard and was very knowledgeable as well. My family and I could not be more satisfied with our yard. It is that extra added effort that Promised Path Landscaping puts in that makes a big difference when it comes to customer service. I would highly recommend them to anyone and already have to many of my neighbors and friends.

I would give Promised Path 4.5 out of 5 stars if this rating were able to rank by half stars. We worked with Angel who was great at taking our ideas and filling in the technical and professional aspects needed. He has great vision and was able to help us see what our piece of dirt could potentially look like. He guided us on a few color and design decisions and was usually right on. He and his team were extremely fast. We had a fairly large piece of land and he was able to get the work done faster than he quoted. The half star off would be due to a few instances when he didn't make agreed upon times, but usually is prompt and good about communicating with you. Our yard is now beautiful and my family really enjoys spending time there thanks to Angel and his team.

Our landscape project ideas had been created prior to hiring a company for installation. We used reviews from houzz to get 3 landscape contractors to look at our plan, provide feedback, and to give us a written estimate. Promised Path Landscape Inc., owned by Angel Carrasco, was awarded the contract based on several factors. First, Angel was able to meet with us within a couple days of the call, was prompt, and authentic. He had several alternative ideas which we were willing to consider. Second, Angel’s enthusiasm is infectious making Rhonda and my selection much easier, not to mention the reviews and project photos on the noted web sites. Third, Angel’s preliminary bid was in the competitive range with other contractors, and was the most realistic for us. A change in Angel’s schedule afforded us a quick start to the project, which was delightful; we had been in the planning mode for months. The hardscape plan included an architectural featured wall, a walkway at the street winding to the front door connecting to the driveway and new patio. Angel’s choice of material/style was a perfect option for a maintenance free, visually pleasing addition. Preventative action was taken by replacing an existing leaning cinder block wall between properties. The method used to create both walls ensured a secure solid structure. The integrity of the hardscape, in our opinion, was of the upmost importance to the quality of the overall project. Angel provided us color options for the featured wall, and when it was painted the color we selected – OMG! Of course, we told Angel it needed to be changed and he was graciously accommodating; the outcome was unbelievably beautiful. The project was taking on a new life. Angel’s crew was hard working, reliable, professional, and efficient. When Rhonda and I had questions or concerns, which there were plenty because we are very involved clients, Angel did his best to explain. Communication with his crew was challenging due to the language differences (our Spanish is very poor), but Angel was always available by phone when not on site. The job site in general was kept tidy. When we wanted a change, repositioning of rocks, lights, or plants, it wasn’t a problem. The men were pleasant, polite, and had a great attitude. The work continued with minimal delay, starting during the holidays. Angel continued to monitor the progress of each phase of installation i.e. hardscape, plant selection and placement, boulder placement, and fountain input along with his co-hart “Susan”. Susan suggested that we have the garage door painted a different color to blend with the house. This really enhanced the visual appreciation of the lighted wall as well as the landscape. The fountain is another dynamic feature providing us (and the neighbors) a peaceful ambiance. Don’t be surprised, while looking in a popular magazine, if you see “Promised Path” Angel Carrasco in print, specifically this project. We knew from the beginning that Angel was committed to creating, with us, an amazing palate of pleasure. He definitely met our expectations!

Promised Path is a exceptional Landscape Design company. Angel renovated my yard and produced quality results during the holidays. His crew worked diligently and created a backyard that is phenomenal ! The best part is he modified his schedule from another project and took on my project and completed it on time as promised. I highly recommend Promised Path it is apparent to me no job is too small or two big for his crew! They arrive on time and ensure the job is on schedule from start to finish! My family is very happy and we are thankful we hired Promised Path !

I got Promised Path Landscaping contact information from a friend of mine who used them for a small project. I was doing a much bigger project - we needed drainage to be put in since our house was on a very steep hill and had absoluately no drainage, the retaining wall at the bottom of the hill was falling over due to rain over the years, and our backyard was essentially a mess of tree roots and dirt that was unusable. We got a couple of estimates and met with Angel from Promised Path. Right away we were able to tell that Angel was not just a salesman/contractor - he really knew his stuff, listened to our ideas/needs, and worked with us to put together a proposal that represented our needs and offered suggestions that we would have have thought of. We appreciated that he took as much time as we needed to explain how things would be done, the pros and cons of certain things (pavers vs concrete, etc etc). He also wrote up a comprehensive contract, and we went back and forth until we were both satisfied with the contract. They started on time, finished early, and stayed within budget. There were a couple of surprises along the way, but more due to us changing our minds regarding a couple of things but Angel worked with us on any changes that we wanted. He made some great recommendations along the way that made the end project much better. We had retaining walls added, rebuilt part of an existing one, cleared the entire yard, put in paver stones, put in a gas firepit and a bench, reinforced the beams on the existing deck and the concrete blocks, put in drainage behind the retaining walls, all around the house, installed drip systems, put in a new underground drainage out to the main road to replace the existing/nonworking one, and replaced some fencing. They did a great job, the back yard looks fantastic now, seems much bigger, and water is no longer a problem. Not only that, when we found out the existing drain out to the road would not work, they very carefully drilled out to the street and after patching up the small band that they had to dig up, you can barely tell that there is new vs old concrete on the driveway. Overall we had a very good experience with Promised Path and would recommend them to friends, and would use them again for other landscaping projects. Angel was really a great partner with us on the project, and I felt that he really cared about the project and the outcome!

We wanted a low maintenance front, side, and backyard with hardscapes, water features, built in BBQ Island, fire pit, pergolas, waterfall, and pond. We contacted four licensed Landscape contractors to get the best possible price and quality. The first contractor gave us a decent price but after looking at some of his projects around the neighborhood, we were not too impressed with the quality of work and his design ideas. The second contractor did not give us any price but left us with the impression that our budget will fall too short for the project we are envisioning. Contractor #3 was willing to work with our budget but we will only get the hardscape, plants, pergolas, and a fire pit (without the water features and BBQ). We decided to settle and agreed with the project but later on backed out after he started raising the price too much for small items that we wanted changed. He also gave us the impression that he will be making the decisions because he knows best and we have no choice but to like it. Angel Carrasco, the owner of Promised Path gave us the feeling of somebody we could trust from the first time we met him. He took our ideas and added some of his own and put it in a design which we could visualize. He worked with our budget by breaking the price down to each individual project so we can choose to add or remove and know how much and where our money will be spent on. The great thing about it is that instead of settling to remove some of the features that we would like, we ended up getting everything we wanted plus more with less money than the other three contractors. As far as his workers, they are a bunch of well mannered, clean as they go, prompt, and hard working professionals who start and end their days with prayers. (My wife watched them daily since she is at home most of the day). Angel is always at the site making sure everything goes right and constantly in communication with us. A day will not pass without him telling us his progress and asking if we have any questions or input. Also, during the process, we made additions and changes as we thought of new ideas and Angel was always willing to work with us. He is also a man of his word. So many times I asked him to do something extra or change something, and if he says he will do it then rest assured it will get done. What impressed me the most is the attention to detail and the care they put in the project in areas that no one can see once the project is done. An example is how they dug almost three feet for the foundation of the fire pit and the surrounding seating area so it is done right and avoid settling. Also, the time they spent on the BBQ Island leveling each block was a sign of true professionals. Speaking of BBQ Island, I originally wanted to just build around my old movable island to save money but he insisted that it will not look good so he built me one that surpassed my expectations. There was also a time when he laid the mulch and the next day told us that it does not look too good and decided to remove it on his dime and gave us a refund for the mulch. Needless to say, the project went without a hitch and was completed ahead of schedule. We are extremely happy with the results and without a doubt would recommend Promised Path to anyone needing a landscape contractor! See Lim Residence in Houzz for pictures

We had Promised Path totally renovate our yard. We could not be happier with the quality and professional workmanship that the Angel and his crew provided. The transformation was speculator! I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for on time and on budget work with no hassles. Outstanding job and looking forward to enjoying our yard for years to come!

We've spent a lifetime in our home visually designing our front yard. The visual has changed over the years, but we've always kept a visual of what our curb appeal should look like. Promised Path transformed our visual to our front yard. Angel is an honest professional and when he begins the job, you know he is working to deliver a quality product. He estimated the job at four weeks and delivered at three weeks. He had full crews on the job site daily, hustling all day long. His crews were respectful and polite. Angel listened and heard our suggestions during the project. When a material flaw was discovered after the completion of the project, he had it fully remedied within 48 hours. We've had so many compliments on our project, both coming from neighbors and folks driving through the neighborhood. Many have stopped to take photos! We highly recommend Angel and his crew at Promised Path and are pleased to o be counted in his references.

We were very happy with Promised Path Landscaping! Angel and his team provided us with a great backyard, within our budget. Angel was more than willing to stop by and meet us during our available hours, they finished their work quicker than anticipated, and stood by their work. He provided some excellent suggestions of choice materials, and we were impressed with how communicative he was. After dealing with several other companies for months just to get a quote, Angel was incredibly responsive and swift. He is a polite professional, and we'd recommend his work to anyone.

We've had okay experiences with other contractors and no one by far exceeded our expectations like Angel from Promised Path landscaping. We requested for him to look and see how he can fix our sprinkler system from a previous contractor. Angel noted all the mistakes and issues with his knowledge and expertise. He was honest with the necessary work needed to do the job done right. He brought in a reliable and respectable team to do the job. And most of all, promised to compete the work in a timely manner. He is a man of his words and stands for exceptional work. Sure you can hire any contractor or landscaper out there but if you want expertise, experience, knowledge, and accountability Promised Path comes with high regards and recommendations.

I interviewed 4 landscape companies to transform a backyard in a foreclosed property I had moved into the year before that had become knee high weeds, chipped concrete and dirt. Angel from Promised Path stood out from the very beginning. He arrived on time and was one of the few companies that took my ideas with a few of his own and put them into a design on paper that I could actually visualize within the budget I provided. Angel was even agreeable to a few of the changes I requested as the project progressed. From a new seat wall with lights to a small corner sandbox for my son. The result is a beautiful new yard that our family will enjoy for many years. The only thing I would have done differently would have been to have spent more time choosing the plants and flowers for the yard but this can all be changed as the seasons change and this would not stop me from doing the same backyard layout all over again. I live in an HOA complex and Angel worked within the necessary policies and guidelines as well. Several neighbors have been by and said how beautiful the new yard is and how they may be using Promised Path in the future for their own yard renovations.

Angel and Promised Path did a great job with our landscaping and hardscaping of both our front and back yards. Angel has great ideas and his crew work very quick. I'd hire them again.

We hired Promised Path for a back yard makeover which included installing a new spa, building a custom fire pit, replacing and expanding the patio, and fresh landscaping. We were impressed with the work shown on their website http://www.promisedpath.com and liked the concept and price that Angel worked out with us. The process started with getting a plan for our Home Owners Association. We needed the plans very quickly in order to avoid a month delay as our HOA only meets monthly. Angel really came through for us, getting us professional plans within a couple of days. When the plans were approved, we decided to start the work the very next day. The Promised Path crew was there promptly that first day and every day thereafter. The crew was very respectful of our property and privacy, and worked very well together. Angel kept us informed of the crew's schedule and the project milestones. In our case, virtually every milestone was completed ahead of schedule and we ended up finishing two weeks early. It was amazing to come home from work each day and see how much progress had been made! We are extremely happy with our new back yard. The finished product not only meets the plans developed at the start, but also meets our vision of comfort and convenience. Angel was great to work with during the whole process. He patiently answered our seemingly endless questions, worked with us when we thought we needed to change something, and helped us see the pros and the cons of making those changes. He met us at the nursery to pick out our new plants and was very knowledgeable about all the plants, whether they would thrive in our location, how much maintenance they would need, how fast they would grow, etc. Angel has some solid craftsmen working for him. We had a good deal of cement and masonry work, and are thrilled with the results. We highly recommend Promised Path!

We needed a landscape to make a three generation family happy: a play area, an adult retreat, a gardening area, and night time gathering place. Promised Path completed more than 1200 man hours of landscaping in five and a half weeks installing drainage, a three foot high retaining wall more than 75 feet long, a water and fire feature, front and rear landscaping and lighting, sidewalks and patios made with concrete and pavers, veggie boxes, and sprinkler system. Our landscaping has been described by friends as park-like, peaceful, useful, and tasteful. The landscaping project was carried out in a seamless and timely manner due to awesome professional leadership and planning. The landscape plan was enhanced by an in house horticultural professional who helped us select appropriate plants to get our desired effect. During the project we were continually tweeking the plan with the contractor to render the best outcome. Angel Carrasco, the contractor, is a man of his word who will be a partner in making you a landscape you can be proud of and use day and night.
