We had Barba Landscaping out over the summer to help us get control of our front yard and back terraced beds. Our big concerns were sustainability, maintenance, and earth retention and they absolutely knocked it out of the park. Ricky had just finished his certifications in California Natives and put a plan together for us that was drought tolerant and beautiful. He took the random things we threw out—California natives, edible garden, landscaping that compliments our house—and planted a beautiful yard for us in the front, while adding additional plants and working with the existing landscaping in the back. He shared so much information with us about caring for our new plants, weeding and maintaining our beds—even followed up a few weeks later to make sure things had settled well. We communicated that we wanted a yard we could maintain ourselves and at no point was there a push for something that would require regular landscaping visits from Barba. We loved our experience working with Ricky and his team and will absolutely be using them for future projects as we transform our yard. Could not recommend more for their levels of professionalism, follow-up, and passion for plants.
Karen Klein
Ricky and his crew at Barba Landscape and Design were professional, prompt and exceeded my expectations. They created exactly what I had imagined. I highly recommend this trustworthy family business. You’ll be in great competent hands.
Timothy Lewitzke
Ricky and his crew were professional, prompt, efficient and detailed.
