BrianMichelleJoy Storm

We hired Golden Roots Landscape & Design for artificial turf and paving, and they did an excellent job. They truly listened to what we wanted and worked with us to create a feasible solution that fit our family’s needs. The turf looks natural, the paving is clean and precise, and they completed everything in just one week. Their team was friendly, reliable, and easy to communicate with throughout the project. We’re very happy with the results and highly recommend Golden Roots Landscape & Design.

Super happy with how our project turned out! The retaining wall looks great and the low-voltage lighting adds such a nice touch at night. Russel was very knowledgeable about paver products and plant knowledge.—they were easy to work with, showed up when they said they would, and did really solid work.

We’re so happy with our new yard! Russel did a great job project managing with us. We had turf, DG, and lighting — it looks great day and night. They were professional, easy to work with, and the whole project came out better than we imagined.

We used Golden Roots Landscaping for our backyard in Carlsbad. We enjoyed working directly with their team to update our poor overgrown and out dated backyard. Everything was done on time and we are so pleased with all of tbeir suggestions and creativity. I would definitely work with Golden Roots again and will.

Jarrett Decker

We couldn’t be happier with our new turf installation! From start to finish, Russel was professional, detail-oriented, and easy to work with. The turf looks absolutely beautiful lush, clean, and perfect for our kids to play on. They transformed our outdoor space into a safe, low-maintenance, and fun area for the whole family. Highly recommend to anyone looking to upgrade their yard with quality work and great service!
