We just finished a major project with Capital Landscaping and I can't say enough good things about this crew. We needed a retaining wall around our corner lot property, new stone steps up to the front door, and a concrete patio—basically a complete overhaul of our outdoor space.From the very beginning, the entire team impressed us. Every single person who showed up to work brought the same level of professionalism and positive energy. These guys worked hard, showed up ready to go, and you could tell they take pride in what they do. Every day they took the time to get it done right.The attention to detail really set them apart. The retaining wall is perfectly level, the stone steps are gorgeous and fit the look of our house exactly, and the patio came together seamlessly with everything else. Nothing was rushed. They took their time to make sure every piece was placed correctly, even taking late changes (that’s on me!) in stride to make sure we were happy with the finished product.They were just genuinely nice people to have around. Great attitudes and real problem solvers.The finished product speaks for itself and our house has never looked better. I will definitely call again if we need any more work done in the future!
I highly recommend Capital Landscaping. We did a full yard project for a new build home... including multiple tiered retaining walls, a bocce ball court, 10+ new trees, prairie grass and low/no-mow grass, boulders and irrigation.We worked closely with Cody and he was so helpful and patient during the process. He was very knowledgeable and took plenty of time with us to educate us on what to expect for growth over a 3 year period as well as seasonal maintenance. He was very thoughtful in the process and helped create spaces we love. The crew was friendly and enjoyable to have around as well.Cody was thorough in overseeing the project and saw it through completion. We are so eager to see the growth over the next few years.
Capital Landscaping rebuilt a retaining wall in my back yard this spring. I was updated frequently by Harry Huang who did a great job letting me know what would be happening day to day. The Crew were professional and did a fantastic job building the wall and path. They left the site clean. This is the second time I've used Capital Landscaping for retaining wall construction. I have a few more landscaping projects and Capital Landscaping will get the job because I totally trust their work!
This company and its crew were excellent! I wish I could figure out how to post pictures for this. They were quick to get us a quote and reply to any questions throughout the job. Our old railroad tie retaining wall failed due to age and improper drainage. They installed a beautiful block wall with the proper drainage system. There was some rain during the job that caused a minor disruption due to some shifting ground, and it hardly delayed them. I can sleep comfortably now that I don't have to worry about my neighbor's driveway collapsing onto mine and knowing their craftsmanship will last for years. It's the company to use if you need any landscaping projects done. I will, without a doubt, use them for any future projects.
Recently I had Capital Landscaping replace a very large deteriorating cedar bed under my front window. with stone. Lalo and crew were fabulous to work with!! They were focused on getting the job done professionally and were good to continuously check to with me to ensure it was what I wanted. Rachel the project designer was excellent to keep me updated, letting me know when they'd arrive. She even coordinated a small side project with Rene which I'd been trying to resolve for a couple years!!Everything went as scheduled. Can't say enough positives about Capital.I'll definitely go back to them on any future projects.
