My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Featured Reviews for Drought Tolerant Landscaping Companies in San Luis Obispo

Ecotones Landscapes, Inc.
Drought Tolerant Landscaping Companies in San Luis Obispo
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 17, 2022
“We have been a customer of Ecotones for 3.5 years and have been exceptionally happy with this company, the staff, the range of comprehensive services, high quality landscaping and design and outstanding customer service. Before we even moved into our modest sized house, we worked with this company to begin yard care and repair and have since expanded into larger, sustainable, full landscape design projects. In my opinion, every project has been handled and carried out with expertise, precision and thoughtfulness and with an eye toward our budgetary considerations. The owner, Greg, is very hands on with consultation and design; his staff are knowledgeable, readily available to us and easily accessible via email/text. Felicia and David have provided 1:1 highly tailored personal guidance regarding plant compatibility, irrigation and design ideas. Our landscape has been transformed into a tiny showcase of beautiful coastal plants and walkways complete with wrap around stone steps and more is yet to come. We highly recommend Ecotones to homeowners looking for landscaping support for both big and little projects.”
CP Landscapes
Drought Tolerant Landscaping Companies in San Luis Obispo
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 8, 2019
“As an out of town landlord, with property in Morro Bay, Cory Paul was recommended by my management firm, Beachfront Rentals. Could not have found a better, reliable service. He handled landscaping on my rental property for two years..... working with the tenants. When I decided to sell the property, Cory provided valuable recommendations on the property cleanup and appearance and improving its curb side appeal thus sale value.”
Botanica Nova
Drought Tolerant Landscaping Companies in San Luis Obispo
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 27, 2018
“Working with Nick Wilkinson, Brandon Nelson and their Botanica Nova crew was awesome! I first met with Nick and we discussed my vision for my backyard. He offered great artistic ideas and suggestions. We discussed how this all could be done, staying within my budget, and we came up with a plan. Brandon and the crew put it all physically in place. Because Nick and Brandon are very knowledgeable regarding the microclimate and water restrictions we have here on the Central Coast of California, my yard is filled with beautiful, native, drought tolerant plants. I can't say enough about this company. They are fantastic workers, friendly, courteous and conscientious. I have and will continue recommending them to my friends.”
