Testimonials
We had a wonderful experience with Johan and team! We needed help landscaping and adding irrigation to a section of our yard near our pool. Johan had really useful advice to help us make decisions that would be good for us in the long run. He has a wealth of knowledge of plants, our particular climate in the Lamorinda area, and all of the tactical and technical things around homeownership (he’s a contractor). We ended up having a plumbing issue that we needed to address to enable our irrigation and Johan had team members that fixed it that day. Very happy with the results and we look forward to working with him on future projects!
Response from the owner:Julie, Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure working with you on your landscaping and irrigation project. We're so glad to hear that Johan’s experience and advice were helpful in creating a solution that will serve you well for years to come. Our team takes pride in offering both thoughtful guidance and reliable technical support, so it’s great to know you felt taken care of every step of the way. We appreciate your trust and look forward to collaborating with you again on future projects!

I highly recommend Cali Scaping for all of your landscaping, hardscaping, and home renovation needs. Johan’s team transformed our landscaping, painted our house, and renovated a bathroom. We know we can count on Cali Scaping for our maintenance needs and more.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation Jessica! We're thrilled to hear that you’re happy with the landscaping, painting, and bathroom renovation work.

After an extensive search process for our major landscaping project, we found Johan at CaliScaping. We could not have been more pleased! He is knowledgeable, personable, and highly creative, immediately picking up on the "tone" of our project. He took our ideas and built upon them in ways we had not considered. For example, he turned a straightforward wood retaining wall into a beautifully curved wall made from river stones. His entire crew is professional and expert, and his office staff is very responsive. I recommend CaliScaping for projects large and small.
Response from the owner:Michael, thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! We're thrilled to hear that your experience with our CaliScaping team exceeded expectations. It was a true pleasure to bring your vision to life and add creative touches—like the river stone retaining wall—that enhanced your original ideas. We take great pride in both our craftsmanship and communication, so it's wonderful to know our crew and office staff made a strong impression as well. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’re grateful you entrusted us with such an important project. We hope you enjoy your new landscape for years to come!
Warm regards,

Fixed my burst irrigation pipes, adjusted my heads, and corrected my controller wiring within only a couple of hours. Super reasonable cost, really nice crew. Johan is great. Absolutely would recommend
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the kind words, Scott! We're thrilled to hear that you were happy with the repair of your irrigation system. We really appreciate the recommendation and are always here if you need anything in the future!
Their team did an excellent job! There was a planned aspect of the job that would have cost extra, but they learned they did not have to do it, so they removed it from the invoice and informed me of the situation. They also planted a bunch of plants and properly identified which plants went on which line. Very happy with their service, and the owner, Johan, was very respectful and knowledgeable!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience Erik! We're thrilled to hear that you were happy with our service and that everything went smoothly. Transparency and honesty are very important to us, Johan and the team will be especially pleased to know their work and attention to detail with the planting made a positive impression. We truly value your support and look forward to working with you again in the future!
After interviewing several companies and contractors to redo our kid-friendly backyard, we decided to go with Cali Scaping — and we’re so glad we did! We met with Johan and trusted that he could bring my vision to life (I’m an architect and created the landscape design myself), all within our budget. And his team delivered!
Johan has a strong eye for detail, is very knowledgeable about plants, and his pricing is fair. We really appreciate the hard work and dedication that he and his team put into our yard. I highly recommend Cali Scaping for your next project!

Johan has completed a very challenging terracing project for our backyard. Johan is very talented and creative. We loved his design and the quality of the work. But most of all, Johan was most professional and owned up to his responsibilities when difficulties arose, like all projects do. We are very pleased.
Response from the owner:Paul, thank you so much for your thoughtful and generous review. It was a pleasure working on your terracing project, and I’m truly glad to hear that you’re pleased with the design and final outcome. I appreciate the opportunity, and your kind words mean a lot—thank you again for your trust and support!
Johan and his crew are the best! And we have tried others...We have them do a spring clean up on our property. It's a lot of work with all sorts of grasses and native shrubs and plants. They know what they are doing, are very careful, doing everything by hand not just whacking away and clean up thoroughly. The property looks fantastic, ready for the spring flowers and growth. We will use them to do some refresh planting in the fall. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Helen, Thank you so much for your kind words and continued trust—it truly means a lot to us! We take great pride in treating each property with care and attention to detail, especially when it comes to working with native plants and natural landscapes. I'm so glad to hear you're happy with the spring cleanup and how everything is looking heading into the season. We’re already looking forward to helping with the fall planting!
Johan was a pleasure to work with. He is very responsive and his crew was always here when he said they would be. They built several rock walls, new steps up my hill and new irrigation. Everything was done very professionally. I’m looking forward to seeing the results when the plants are in bloom this spring!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind review and choosing Cali Scaping! We are thrilled to hear how happy you are with the results and hope you enjoy your new outdoor living space for many years. It was a pleasure to work with you Mary, and we value your thoughtful feedback.
