Back To Eden Landscapes

Pete was a dream to work with. He listened to my vision and made it come to life. He has a talent with design and plants. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my new drought resistant yard! I would and will recommend this top notch company to everyone I know. If you are ready to do something spectacular with your yard defiantly call Back To Eden.

Pete contacted me to set up an estimate from an online referral through HomeAdvisor. He was on time to measure and discuss with me the design for our new home backyard landscaping install that Friday and advised he would have a quote to me by the following Wednesday. It is now Saturday, no quote and my attempts to contact him to inquire on the status of my estimate (text and phone) have both remained unanswered.
Can’t comment on the quality of his work as we did not use his services, but I can say that he has not delivered the quote he promised in a timely manner and his lack of communication is very unprofessional. We will not be utilizing his services.

We got lots of landscape and concrete work done by Pete, for both front and back yard. I loved everything about it… he had great ideas for our property, his timing was great, payments were perfectly timed, and his employees were very respectful of our property.
Everything is beautiful, sustained perfectly, and would highly recommend over and over again. Pete left me with some cards, and already handed out quite a few with recommendations based on our home…
Cant wait to start phase 2 with him in a year or so…
*only thing is when a sprinkler breaks or isn’t working right, it takes a while to get out here to fix, so we have to turn off system for a few days.

Hired Pete to do my backyard. My first email was responded to very quickly. Upon talking to Pete we set up an appointment to meet and have him look at my yard. The start was delayed by the recent rain we had but first opportunity Pete got to work and completed the project very quickly. I love the finished product and have already had compliments on the work thanks Pete.

Awesome service. Awesome job. Completed super fast.
I contacted Pete and wanted to get a sprinkler system and sod done in my backyard. I also wanted to do the wood chips on the side and front. Pete came out to give me an estimate and was very professional. He asked a lot of questions and we came up with a nice design for my backyard. The next day I got an estimate. It was a very good price compared to the two other bids I received. Plus Pete said he could get the job started the next day. I was getting my house on the market on Friday so I thought it was really good news. Pete started and finished over about 3 days. The guys that worked with him were also very professional. Update: 2 months later: Called Pete to get landscape done on my dad’s backyard as well. Came out for a bid but never received a response.

Pete with Back to Eden landscaping did a good job with my backyard. He installed sod, top soil, border rocks, an automatic sprinkler system, a drain line, a patio, and a patio cover. It wasn’t cheap, but then again you get what you pay for with his company and he gave estimates for everything. It has been several months since the job, and everything is fine. Healthy grass, sprinklers that work correctly, etc.

One of the worst businesses I’ve ever worked with. I was looking for a contractor to do a 255 sq. ft. putting green project. I called this contractor on a Wednesday to come out and give me an estimate on a Saturday. He told me he would come out around 8 or 9 am, but would call Friday to confirm a time. I never heard from him. I called him twice Saturday morning trying to figure out where he was and got his voicemail. He finally called me back at 10:15 and told me he was leaving a job 20 minutes away and would come over pretty soon. I told him that I had another contractor coming over at 11:00, so we would have to push it back. He replied (this is verbatim), «I can’t worry about that. I’ve got other things to do today.» I was so dumbfounded that someone would say this to a potential customer that I really didn’t say much back. I said OK, and hung up, with the intent of letting this guy come over, give us an estimate, and quickly dismissing him. Once he showed up, it got even worse.
He showed up with NO turf samples. Seriously, you’re going to try to sell me turf without samples? On the bright side, he did make a quick unsolicited apology about being abrupt on the phone (I could care less, the damage had been done). He also thanked me for my military service (he noticed I was wearing a shirt I got in Iraq). He took some measurements, and declined to give me an estimate on the spot. He said he would take them home, plug them into the computer and send me an email with the estimate on Monday. It is now Tuesday night and I’ve yet to hear anything back.
I signed a contract for $ 2070 with another company today. I suppose Back to Eden must be rolling in so much dough that my $ 2k job isn’t enough for them to roll out of bed in the morning. Methinks not.
UPDATE:
The original home consultation that I referenced above occurred on Feb 25^th. He told me he would email me an estimate the following Monday (Feb 27^th). Today is March 12^th and I just received an email estimate from him. It came in 63% more expensive than the company I ended up going with. Worst of all, he flat out jacked up the square footage (like I wasn’t going to catch it). He quoted me for 314 sq ft. Even after we vastly expanded on my original plan, the company I ended up going with only calculated the job at 250 sq ft. The square footage we had marked off the day «Back to Eden» was out here was closer to 180 – 200 sq feet. Unless he planned on throwing turf on top of my patio and/​or BBQ, there is NO way any plan involved 314 sq. ft. So now, he is not only non-​punctual and rude, but he is also dishonest/​incompetent. STAY AWAY!!!
