We highly recommend Montano's Landscaping. We did a complete backyard redo incorporating both hardscape and landscape updates. Carlos and his team were amazing from the start. Their pricing was reasonable. They were very collaborative during the design process. They started on time, worked incredibly hard, finished on time and on budget. They even completely mulched our front yard which was not part of the scope. The end result, their craftsmanship, is the real reason for this review. Our backyard has been completely redesigned and their work is top notch.

We are so pleased that we chose to work with Carlos and Montano's Landscaping! Our project was relatively small, but Carlos was responsive and made us a priority from the start. He communicated very well, from the initial appointment to provide the quote through to the end of the process. He provided thoughtful suggestions and was simultaneously receptive to what our needs and requests were. We are thrilled with how our new decorative retaining wall looks and what it brings to the front of our house. His crew was respectful of our property and left it cleaner than when they arrived. Anytime we

Montano's Landscaping transformed our retaining wall from the 20th to the 21st century, resulting in a clean and newer look to our house overall. Landscaping companies have different designs, but Carlos's vision was clean and complemented the house's design and improved function, exactly how we wanted. Carlos explained the design intent clearly, and most importantly for me, answered all my questions at our original meeting and by follow-up emails. His father, Juan, managed the work, which included multiple reviews of the progress daily to make sure we were on the same page, as he told me. I am

Carlos and his crew designed and built us an absolutely gorgeous stonework patio and integrated low voltage lighting system. His design was beautiful and we had him build it exactly as designed, including color choices. The crew worked straight through to completion, demolishing and removing a large 17 year old deck and underlying old concrete patio through the finishing touches on integrated plantings and lawn restoration. They are not cheap, but you get what you at for. Our neighbors now tell us we have a million dollar backyard. Couldnt be happier and we are now in the early phase

Montanos Landscaping had recently completed installing a new patio at a good friends house when they referred us to Carlos for an opinion on replacing our patio. Our friends were very happy with the work Montanos had done and even more so personally with Carlos. We initially contacted Montanos and another firm to provide a quote and initial design. There was no comparing the results. Carlos initial design blew away the competition. Other than some general guidelines on size and cost, our only criteria had been that we didnt want to look out after the work was completed and

After 10 years of living in our house and doing update after update, we finally decided it was time to invest in our landscaping. Montano's was recommended to us and we could not have had a better experience. They were incredibly professional, thorough, and responsive. We are an active family without a lot of time to spend caring for landscaping, and so I requested nice, but easy maintenance flowers and greenery and they delivered. They created a gorgeous flow to our front yard, and explained their reasoning for what they chose to do, and made it work within the budgetary restrictions we gave them
