GreenOuse Landscape & Design

Our backyard was being redesigned completely, and we needed landscape construction for the plants, deck (with hot tub built into it) and a meandering walkway to be constructed with our giant pavers to be broken up into pieces. We had a landscape plan drawn up by someone already. We are overjoyed with the results, and here’s a few details:
–Michelle came out to bid the job and while her quote was more than the other quote, her questions and level of detail she delved into assured me she actually understood the job so I wouldn’t be hit with unexpected costs down the road. The bid was very thoroughly itemized as well.
–her deck subcontractor was amazing.
–we had an issue with a drip, and Rob came out and worked on it until it was fixed.
–the walkway looks so awesome. They had to break up giant pavers into roughly similar size pieces and then rough the edges so there weren’t any straight edges. We are really impressed at how it turned out.
–Michelle and Rob worked with my landscape designer really well, and I am grateful for the collaboration. In fact, my designer was also impressed by Michelle and didn’t have to project manage it at all, like she often has to do.
So thanks you guys, I think we’ll bbq tonight in our shiny new backyard.

We’ve used greenouse for a few years now and they absolutely transformed our yard from a mess of weeds, poison oak and iceplant to a beautiful yard that we now enjoy and constantly receive compliments on. Michele was great in coming out and helping to design the whole scheme and bring our thoughts to reality. And Rob and his crew just tore through it in no time and his work is precise and and always respectful. He even fixed our given up for dead irrigation system. When we went looking for a landscaper my wife wanted someone who treated our yard like it was their own. That’s what you get with Greenouse!

We had Michelle design our backyard which for 17 years was a weed patch. She spend lots of time with us and came up with a beautiful plan that was more than we had expected. We selected the low maintenance plants she suggested which required minimal watering and she provided us a very detailed bid for the work. The estimate was very fair and we were able to make minimal changes as the project moved along. Rob and his crew worked very hard and followed Michelle’s design to a T… and we ended up with a beautiful backyard which we now enjoy every day. Thank you Michelle and Rob for your commitment to excellence!

I don’t know if I have the words to describe how I felt when I saw the front of the house redone or not… it looks absolutely spectacular! How Michelle took a few of our ideas and likes — some fantastic recommendations from her and Rob and his crew turned half dead Bermuda grass, dated ivy and junipers and some half dead plum trees into a yard that should definitely be in Sunset. Oh did I mention all is drought tolerant, a water feature with no actual water and a pathway that ties it all together meandering through it all. Michelle and Rob make a great team, they are down to earth, professional and very knowledgable. Btw — the price for this — very reasonable! Worth every penny! Thank you Michelle and Rob — You two are the best!

The most friendly, professional, efficient landscaping design company in all of Santa Cruz County, not to mention the nicest people you’ve ever worked with! The owner, Rob Ouse, works diligently and even after he completes the job he returns to the property, to ensure that everything is just right. Michelle, his wife, is the one who surveys your property to determine the price. She is very fair and extremely kind and helpful. She and Rob know so much about the plants that grow naturally in California. They saved us money in water costs and made our home beautiful! If you are looking for a reliable landscape company in the Santa Cruz area, give GreenOuse a try for sure!

GreenOuse has been doing our yard maintenance for some time, it is great coming home to a fresh yard two times a month on a regular basis… I say that because our last maintenance crew seemed to come whenever they felt like it. Due to their awesome work and wanting to spruce up the yard a bit we asked for an estimate to upgrade our landscape. They came to our house and gave us a quote in a timely manner, after deciding we wanted the work done and returning a signed estimate, they were at our house within days and had the work done faster then that. Awesome work with a great eye for landscape design. I highly recommend GreenOuse Landscape & Design.

Honest, Family run, people who create amazing landscapes, Michelle and her team always blow me away with what they create from design to install– you want these guys WAAYY more than some big company. 5+ Stars.

These guys do an absolutely fantastic job. I would highly recommend them to anyone. If there were more stars, I would add them.
