“[Our Yards] turned out beautifully and the supervisor and crews were a delight to work with.”

Desert Foothills Landscape has been wonderful to work with. We hired them to work on our front and back yards to redesign and add color and also to do weekly maintenance. It turned out beautifully and the supervisor and crews were a delight to work with and continue to be so. We are thrilled to have found them and recommend them highly. Our next-door neighbors use them also and feel the same.

“I wanted their special WOW Factor to transform the entrance to my driveway.”

Two years ago, I submitted a Google review for the exceptional work the team at Desert Foothills Landscape completed, transforming my ho-hum backyard into my own private desert sanctuary. This year, I contacted them again because I wanted their special WOW Factor to transform the entrance to my driveway. Once again, their design team and professional workforce exceeded my expectations. Designer Marc Vargas made every step of the process seamless and stress-free. If you want the best in service, design, implementation, and satisfaction, don’t hesitate to contact Marc and his team. WOW!

“Jake and his team knocked it out of the park.”

Wow! Jake and his team knocked it out of the park. The minute I met Jake and he started describing his vision for my property, I knew this was the guy! The transformation around the pool was amazing. The attention to detail was great, all the guys were professional, the office staff was responsive, and it was all done on time and on budget. I’m definitely using Desert Foothills for phases 2 and 3.

I used this company due to their online reputation for assistance with landscaping our backyard. They installed a brand-new drip irrigation unit and removed water-guzzling sprinklers. At completion of the work, they spent some time with me, moving the things around to make me 100 percent satisfied.
