Garden View Landscape and Pools - Monrovia, California

We had a great experience with Garden View! Mark did a great job getting us started with a concept, Justin created a beautiful design, Keely helped taylor it to our budget and Eddie was incredible managing our complete backyard pool and landscaping project. I loved that they handled all aspects of the project start to finish. All their guys were excellent at all the trades. The communication was very good throughout the duration and their attention to detail and holding our budget were really impressive. Garden View’s price was in line with other bids we got, but their control of the project kept them on schedule. They really know what they are doing and we couldn’t be more pleased!

INCREDIBLY good company

They put in my pool 10 years ago. It was a great experience but this year, the hot tub area developed a crack and needed a new top. It was complicated. The Pebbletec had cracked, the bond beam (?) had popped off and the whole thing had to be re-done.

On a whim, I called Garden View again. I figured 'maybe' they would help me out on the price?

They did the whole thing for free.

They said, frankly, a problem like this was not up to their standards and they would make it right.

The crew worked for 2 weeks. And the newer work, I have to say, is even better than the first time around. Their new stonemason is OUTSTANDING. He matched everything perfectly. He's brilliant.

5 stars.

They stand behind their work like almost no other companies do.

Garden View Landscape is a thoughtful, very easy to work with, and highly professional group that goes above and beyond. This contractor is an ethical oasis at a time when costs are skyrocketing. We can't say enough to praise Garden View landscape for the extraordinary job they did for us completely transforming our residential environment. We went through several contractors trying to find somebody to work with us, within our budget and timeline. Throughout the pandemic, we had struggled to find the resources to create a new campus for the clients we care for. We managed to obtain a turf replacement grant to partially fund the project, and we were scrambling to find a capable design and installation contractor. Garden View was amazing, not only was their design thoughtful and cost-effective but their construction crew and project execution was completed seamlessly. Ever struggle to get a hold of a contractor once you hire them? These guys respond in minutes every time we have a thought or concern. Even after the project is done. We now have an amazing, smartly designed with thrifty drip irrigation, campus for our grateful clients. The transformation is incredible and they did it all. From design, construction, installation and even plant care and placement. They have their own nursery! The choices were beautiful and the owner came out himself to help decide where and how to place the plants. This was a huge project with a tiny budget. In the end they landscaped more than an acre and the results are stunning, incredibly easy to care for and has made an incredible difference for our clients. Higher these guys!

We have a very steep hill as a backyard with plenty of plant eating wildlife. ALo a waterfall on that hill that needed a major rebuild as we wanted to stay with the natural look. This was not an ordinary job!
Garden View was excellent all the way from a "rocky" beginning to an wonderful finish. (literally tons of rocks were rearranged, imported and removed). The hill is stabilized, weeded, replanted and we could not be more impressed with the job that was done. From designer, to rock haulers every single person was truly helpful, careful ( dogs did not get out even once) thoughtful and knowledgeable. We were consulted and informed every step of the way. We recommend Garden View with no reservations. We just wish we had another job to do - it was so much fun.

I them to ask some questions. The representative's pushiness and lack of patience, prioritizing appointments over my concerns, were disappointing. This experience emphasizes the need for better customer service.

One of my experiences of Garden View was going to the Nursery off the 605 over 15 years ago. Seeing the pictures on the wall, I wanted to make a pool in my backyard. I saw a pool with a shape I liked online, and Mark and company took my idea and and incorporated others to turn my wall into a spilllway. We had discussed doing an infinity pool but decided it wasn't fitting. The creativity from the team has been amazing, and the construction team has been responsive, professional, detailed in their approach, and communicative. It's been a great experience. I've spent a lot of money but from my perspective I've gotten a lot of bang for my buck. Eddie, the project manager, has been able to answer all my questions and give me responses to safety issues and any other concerns. I'm very happy with the final outcome!

Garden View did an amazing job on our pool and landscaping project! We live in the Monrovia hills so this was a huge project and GV did an amazing job in completely transforming our yard to an absolute oasis! From the moment we met Mark, the owner, for our initial consultation, to meeting and working with Justin and the design team, to the financial team and making sure everything fit within our budget, we have had nothing short of excellent customer service. Eddie, our project manager, helped make sure everything ran smoothly on a daily basis and we essentially spoke or exchanged text messages every single day...he was even able to accommodate us in the evenings since my wife and I both work all day. We had very high hopes and big dreams of creating a large outdoor space for our 3 children and GV was able to take this vision and more than recreate this for us. We have nothing but amazing things to say about GV and everyone involved in our project and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to build their dream pool and backyard! Thank you Garden View for doing such an amazing job!!!

We bought an amazing home that did not have a defined area for our dog, and in fact had a very little yard at all because the house was perched on the edge with drop offs around 50% of this amazing view property.

The owner came out and explained the process. We met with Samantha and Eddie and reviewed several different options, clearly explained with drawings and renderings of how it would look and feel. They came up with solutions that we would never have thought of, which was using large boulders to create a natural-looking retaining wall and backfilling dirt. Voila! Instant yard space!

The best part of Garden View is their uncanny way to ask questions to "read" the client to understood our tastes for a natural setting.

I'll also say this: I've worked with design/build companies on home remodels and they can be grossly overpriced. Garden View was very fair and a year later we are ecstatic about our yard. I called Eddie with a question today and had to tell him how grateful we are to their entire team.
