Conscious Environments Inc.

I am writing this review to share our positive experience with Conscious Environments, a company that designed and remodeled our entire home landscaping. We hired them (December 2021) after browsing Houzz.com, we were not disappointed. The entire team from Conscious Environments was professional, courteous, and attentive to our needs and preferences. They listened to our ideas (anchored around a Struxture patio cover with Phantom shades to control the elements) and incorporated them into a stunning design that matched our vision. They also suggested some creative and practical solutions that enhanced the functionality and aesthetics of our outdoor space. They completed the project on time and on budget Summer 2022. We are very happy with the results. Our home landscaping has been transformed into a beautiful and inviting oasis that we enjoy every day. We have received many compliments from our neighbors and friends, and we recommend Conscious Environments to anyone who asks. They are truly experts in their field, and we are grateful for their excellent work. They remain responsive to the occasional warranty item, which we find extremely valuable! If you are looking for a reliable and talented company to design and remodel your home landscaping, look no further than Conscious Environments.

The Conscious Environments team did a fantastic job on the front and back yard of our new home in Great Park, Irvine. They took their time to understand our tastes and goals for the yards, prepared detailed plans and reviewed them with us, made changes after reviewing the plans, then prepared an estimate, and then did the construction. Overall we are very happy with the process and especially the result. We highly recommend them as a landscaping design and build firm. Bill Grunau

We are extremely happy working with the Conscious Environment team. Matt, Dan and the entire crew were professional and focused on every detail of our hillside project. We look forward to starting phase 2.

We absolutely love our patio renovation that Josh, Matt, and their stellar team created. Throughout the process they were respectful of our budget and concerns and they guided us in selecting designs and materials that worked for our small space. Their crew was extremely courteous, professional, and tidy. Their attention to detail was impeccable resulting in gorgeous tile work in our outdoor kitchen, a beautifully tiled patio floor, a new stucco wall that the neighbors envy, and a hardwood partition that really pops in our space and gives us the privacy we were aiming for. Even since the project was completed, Matt has always been quick to respond to questions. We would absolutely work with Conscious Environments again!

Conscious Environments did a fantastic job helping us to remodel our home. It was a big project and we are so happy with the end result. Their work was excellent and we cannot say enough good things about them. We would highly recommend hiring them. Josh and Ryan were wonderful to work with. Debby and Barry R.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Conscious Environments to transform our backyard into an oasis of relaxation and entertainment. From the initial consultation on design (we used them for design and construction) to the final touches, the team at Conscious Environments exhibited unparalleled professionalism and attention to detail. Josh's commitment to customer satisfaction was evident throughout the entire process. He was communicative, transparent and ensured that our vision was not only met, but exceeded. Matt's design expertise truly set our project apart. He took the time to understand our preferences and tastes and deal with the HOA in our community. He suggested how we could stay without our budget, which was truly helpful. The result? Our backyard (which we refer to as our "retreat" now) is the envy of the neighborhood and our friends and family, and we're spending more time outdoors than ever before. Who doesn't like sitting by a warm firepit and night with a drink in hand and great conversation? Or taking a dip in the spa after a long day of work? We certainly do now! From the large spa with the waterfall and fire bowls to the pergola with BBQ island to the firepit and amazing grass inlaid concrete, this is a visually stunning outdoor space that perfectly utilizes what a smaller backyard is capable of. Even almost a year after our project's completion, they helped us with a few minor issues we needed to resolve. Talk about customer service! If you are looking into a remodel of your backyard, big or small, do yourself a favor and call the team at Conscious Environments. You'll be glad you did.

Competent honest technical professionals. There’s a reason that CE has so many five star reviews; their work is excellent and the price is fair. My particular project included remodeling every square inch of my lot including a new pool, patio, bathroom, hardscape, landscape, driveway, sound system, generator with transfer switch, lighting etc. I’ll bottom line it for you, hire them. If I had to do this project all over again, I would.

The Conscious team did an incredible reinvention of our entire landscape at our primary residence in 2015 and have always been available for ongoing maintenance since that time. Then earlier this year we had a major pool deck drainage issue at one of our secondary homes and reached out to Conscious to see if they could help. This was a very unsexy job, so I would have fully understood if they passed on this request, but instead, they gave us their undivided attention, designed an efficient cost-effective solution, and executed it in a timely manner. The result looks great and so far the new drainage system is capturing the rainwater perfectly. Josh, Matt, Dan and team are amazing and I definitely recommend them for anyone who wants beautiful work that is done right!

Conscious Environments made our small yard seem like paradise. We had tiles, a hot tub, artificial turf, and plants/planters installed with irrigation and it went smoother than we expected for a construction project. Their workers kept our yard clean even while they worked and everyone was very professional and friendly. Everything was straight forward and explained to us - excellent communication.

Conscious Environments has been a pleasure to work with. They have supported several very complicated projects for us over the last 3 years. Their service is complete from design through execution, landscape, pool, mechanical, lighted rail systems, an outdoor bar, etc. They have vision and bring an aesthetic quality few can deliver. Thank you Josh and your team for all the support on these important projects!

We found CE after a long search for almost two years. We completed our interior remodel with another company a few years back and the terrible experience left us traumatized. We were hesitant to make our next big decision. We initially met with Josh and found him to be easy to communicate with and he seems like a nice, honest guy. After meeting Matt, we decided to give the project to CE. We never regretted our decision. We had a complete outdoor remodel plus overhaul of the lap pool. It was a huge project. Matt was very responsive and answer our questions and concerns in a timely manner. He dealt with our HOA beautifully. Obviously, a project of this magnitude has unexpected issues, but Matt and Dan worked diligently and took care of them. CE did an excellent job of creating the landscape with our request in mind. We appreciate their professional work ethic and their quality workmanship. Our project was completed more than a year ago. They still respond to my calls and come out to help us to trouble shoot a few problems. I know Ryan left the company, but I want to mention that he is a wonderful person and a joy to work with. I rarely do reviews, but CE earned this 5-star rating. Hire them!

We worked with Conscious Environments for a lakefront pool and deck project at our motel in Tahoe. Josh was the lead designer and assisted from the early stage on conceptual drawings as well as technical, code-specific planning. Their team was a pleasure to work with - they were timely, efficient, thorough, and creative throughout the entire process. The pool and deck are now complete and everything came out great! We couldn't have pulled this off as smoothly without Conscious Environments and highly recommend them.
