Rafael's Landscaping

We used Rafael’s Landscaping to redo our backyard in Alameda. They did everything from adding drainage, irrigation, leveling, stonework, laying sod, and planting. We had a design / vision and they executed it perfectly! We met with Gaby a few times before starting and she and the crew helped us every step of the way. They made sure we were happy with each stage before moving on and even helped us tweak design elements as we went. Gaby especially helped with plant selection at the end - what would do well where and what colors would look best with our house and fruit trees we wanted. The crew was always kind and did a great job cleaning up the space to making it look A+. The yard turned out beautifully and like a dream for our kids to grow up with - thanks to their expertise! Highly recommend Gaby, Rafael, and their team if you need good landscapers for regular work or for a bigger job.

Rafael, the crew and Gaby are professional, provide very fair pricing, listen to your needs and reliable. (Show up for appointments and with adequate staff) If they miss something, they correct the issue. They are work oriented and always polite and easy to work with.They helped with landscape design, clearing and replacing shrubs, sprinkler audits and repairs. We are very pleased with the improvement in the look of our yard. I strongly recommend this licensed, insured and professional landscape contractor, you won’t regret hiring them. (and good friendly people to work with) When they leave, they make sure your property is totally cleaned up.

I met Gaby a couple years ago at my BNI group and really liked what I heard about her family landscaping business(Rafael’s) and I am not a member anymore, but I remembered her and reached out to her a couple of months ago. She came to our home and looked at all of our plants and our irrigation and lighting, She did a thorough walk through the property and she looked at it as if it was her own yard. Gaby and the team enhanced our property with new lights new plants new ground cover just making everything look so wonderful. The time and care Gaby and the team took was amazing. Rafael the owner also came out as well to meet me and my husband and take a look at everything as well. He also came out a second time. They were always on time for matter fact they were early. They showed up as promised and everything was done as promised. They deserve way more than five stars, and we are going keep having them help us with all of our future landscaping needs. They treat you like family and show that they really care about the way your landscaping looks and how everything they do enhances your yard.

Raphael’s Landscaping is 10/10! My partner and I bought our first house last fall, and knew right away that we wanted to transform our backyard into something that reflected our love of the outdoors and a desire to grow some of our own produce. Raphael’s helped turn our ideas into a reality. Raphael has decades of experience and an eye for detail that constantly assured us we were in good hands. Gaby was warm, communicative, knowledgeable, and attentive to the budgetary confines we placed on the project. And their team could not have been more diligent and personable. We’d recommend Raphael’s to anyone, and work with them again in a heartbeat!

Rafael’s Landscaping was extremely professional. They worked closely with myself and my wife to develop a landscape plan and pick plants that worked well with the pallet of our house. We have received many unsolicited compliments from our neighbors. Rafael’s exceeded our expectations.
