Featured Reviews for Pool Landscaping Companies in Richmond

Terralinda Design
Pool Landscaping Companies in Richmond
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 29, 2016
“I have the most beautiful front yard in the neighborhood. I absolutely love it. Linda did the design & supervised the work. She incorporated my beloved roses into the native environment seamlessly. She knew that I have an affinity for manzanita, so she strategically placed them throughout my yard. She let me go on a nursery field trip with her to pick out the plants that I liked. My yard grows more gorgeous by the day. I sit outside on my bench & soak up the beautiful scenery and tranquility. I recommend Linda with total confidence.”

Sarah Ray Landscape Design
Pool Landscaping Companies in Richmond
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 31, 2014
“Sarah Ray and her design build firm are nothing short of exceptional. Sarah and her crew restored our trust in the home service industry after experiencing a botched home interior addition & remodel seven years ago. Our experience with Sarah now sets the gold standard for any home service provider we hire in the future. We spent a month carefully interviewing 6 landscape designers, architects, and design-build firms. Sarah was always the front runner and knew the second we hired her that we initiated a great partnership and were embarking on an awesome ride! And it was, on every front. Sarah is not only a talented visionary, designer and expert in her field, but a great listener, collaborator and partner. We have a large flat backyard (about 5000 sq. ft.) that was overgrown and neglected. We had ideas of the style and design elements that we liked, but it was overwhelming to think of how to get there! Having Sarah shepherd us through the design to build process was a privilege and an experience I will always treasure. She is extremely approachable, upbeat, patient, and easy to work with. She was very open to listening to our ideas and iterating on design options together. We also hired Sarah to build/implement our master design plan. A full design-build firm appealed to us because of the seamless and efficient implementation of the design. Sarah is also very available throughout the build process and was onsite nearly every day, as was her foreman. Sarah also met us countless times at various suppliers so that we could carefully select our materials. Her build crew is talented and very hard working. They started at 7:30am and worked for 7-8 hours/day, sweltering hot conditions or not. We really appreciated the undivided attention and the integrity and all-around work ethic displayed by Sarah and her crew. You will also find Sarah to be very transparent. Her billing system is the most logical and straight forward approach I have experienced in the home service industry. The invoice is directly tied to our contracted line items whereby charges reflect only percentages completed on a weekly basis. All change orders were at my request, and were only represented in the invoice if we agreed to it prior. There were no hidden costs or surprises. So, aside from my change orders, the project cost aligned with the signed contracted budget. Sarah created a gorgeous garden space that is everything we ever dreamed of and much more. Our family is looking forward to enjoying this beautiful extension of our home, our new found sanctuary, for years to come. Sarah Ray Design comes highly recommended for any size project. Thanks a million, Sarah!”
Alderland - SF Bay Area Pool & Landscape Co.
Pool Landscaping Companies in Richmond
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 29, 2011
“I just completed a remodel of my pool and landscaping with the Alder Group, and simply stated I could not be happier. From the first meeting until the project was completed, Don always looked for ways to improve the project and at the same time ways to minimize the cost of the project. His keen eye for design saw needed simple improvements that were relatively inexpensive but had a massive effect on the overall beauty of the project. Perhaps most importantly when the manufacturer delivered the wrong custom coping, and I worried that we would not be able to meet the deadline of a large party that was planned for my backyard; Don found a way to resolve the issue and keep the job on schedule. Don is truly one of the good guys.”

Kristen Rudger Landscape Design
Pool Landscaping Companies in Richmond
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 12, 2013
“Kristen designed a beautiful makeover for our yard - front, back and sides. She asked lots of questions before designing anything - what we wanted (pavers, pretty flowers), what we didn't want (water feature, yellow flowers) and in general, how we wanted to use our yard. She came up with lovely, detailed plans for a traditional looking garden (with our traditional looking house) - that were revised slightly with discussion, then found a couple of contractors to bid on the work. She supervised the work of the one we chose, making sure they followed the plans. She recommended a new gardner - good choice. About a year later she replaced the few plants that hadn't made it (for no charge), and now almost two years later the place is absolutely beautiful! I can't tell you how many complements we have received ever since the job was originally completed - and they continue to this day!”
SW Design
Pool Landscaping Companies in Richmond
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 10, 2014
“Following the recommendation of a friend, I hired Stephanie Wondolleck and her design firm, SW Design, for a much-needed and long-delayed landscaping project for the front of our home in Marin County, California. Stephanie was very good at figuring out what we would like (given our tastes and cost constraints), even though we were not very sure what we wanted. She did everything she said she would do, including using only deer-resistant plants and bringing the project in on budget and on-time. Meeting the deadlines required careful coordination of various contractors, at which she was very adept. Stephanie is professional, creative, thoughtful--and a pleasure to work with. We would (will) happily and confidently hire her and SW Design again.”
Past the Gate

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 10, 2013
“Past the Gate did a beautiful job with a new patio I purchased as a gift for my daughter at her home. Greg and his staff were friendly and very professional and I would use them again in an instant (in fact, I have now used them two years in a row for improvements to my daughter's property in Berkeley!)”

“As an architect, I have worked firsthand with Pete Pedersen on numerous projects and have always found him to be a consummate professional. He listens to the client and then creates beautiful landscape solutions that are not only award winning quality, but also are responsive to budget constraints. He is both creative and practical. We always seek to work with Pete every chance we get.”
Habitat & Devries Landscape Design / Construction
Pool Landscaping Companies in Richmond
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 31, 2015
“The owner of this firm, Omar Khorsheed, carried out a very extensive and difficult landscaping job for our home about 10 years ago. This involved all aspects of design and construction - and subsequent maintenance. It is something of an understatement to say that we were and have remained delighted with the result. An essential part of that abiding delight derives from Omar's remarkable, and to us surprising and unexpected, artistic vision about the job,. The result owes relatively little to our input, and what we have, what we enjoy, we overwhelming owe to his very creative artistic understanding and sensibility. Importantly, however, when we did disagree with him he discussed the issues with us in a good-spirited and respectful manner and, when we resolved on a clear decision, acceded to that in good will. Highest marks and much gratitude to Habitat and DeVries.”

Landscape Architect or Designer FAQs
The duration of a pool landscaping project varies based on the scope of work, size of the area, complexity of the design, and materials used. Simple designs might take a few weeks, while more complex projects with custom features could take several months from design to completion. Initial consultations, design revisions, permitting, and weather conditions can also influence the timeline. A reputable company will provide a realistic project timeline based on a detailed assessment of your specific needs and desires.
Pool landscaping companies stay abreast of the latest materials and design trends through continuous education, industry publications, and participation in professional organizations. They work closely with suppliers to understand the benefits and limitations of new materials. During the design phase, they consider factors such as climate, maintenance, sustainability, and the architectural style of your home to select materials that are both stylish and suitable for your unique project. Engaging a company with a strong portfolio and awareness of current trends can ensure a modern, durable outdoor space.
Before engaging a pool landscaping company, homeowners should define their goals, budget, and desired timeline for the project. Collecting inspirational images or creating a wish list of features can help communicate your vision. Assess your property to understand any potential challenges or restrictions, such as slopes, soil types, or local regulations. Preparing this information beforehand can facilitate a more productive initial consultation and help the company propose a design that aligns with your expectations and constraints.
Experienced pool landscaping companies are skilled at addressing common challenges such as drainage issues, soil problems, limited space, or compliance with local codes and regulations. They employ a variety of strategies, such as grading the land for proper drainage, selecting plants that thrive in your soil type, or designing custom solutions to maximize small spaces. Throughout the project, they maintain open communication, provide alternatives or adjustments as needed, and adhere to industry best practices to overcome any obstacle efficiently and effectively.
Recent trends in pool landscaping include the integration of natural elements for a more organic feel, sustainable landscaping practices, the use of smart technology for maintenance and lighting, and the creation of multi-functional spaces that extend the living area outdoors.
