I am very pleased with the backyard landscape that Erik and his crew did at my home. He was available immediately after the project as well to help smooth out any last-minute issues that arose afterwards. Highly recommended!
I contacted Stepping Stone Landscape Design for two (2) reasons: a defective sprinkler control and a possible landscape remodel on a small (16x16) yard. Erik was very helpful with both. First, he offered to have his sprinkler person come out and take a look. Ultimately, he came out himself, determined the part, and replaced it only a few days after our first conversation. On the yard, Erik listened to my "vision" and provided some advice. One thing that I really appreciated about the interaction is that Erik asked what other priorities I had at home, other than the yard. That helped put things in perspective and helped me determine not to move forward, right now, with the yard remodel.
Stepping Stone Landscape Design is an EXCELLENT company! Erik delivered on everything he said he would. The design for my backyard is beautiful, his quote was competitive, and he was super responsive and patient while I asked a ton of questions. I would highly recommend Erik and his team for any landscape design needs!
Could not be happier with my experience working with Erik at Stepping Stone Landscape Design. Erik is a really nice and honest person. I liked how he never made the project or situation stressful and was always reachable and responsive. His bid was also competitive with other companies I received estimates from. He did everything he said he was going to do and the quality of work was excellent. I would definitely recommend Erik to any of my friends and I will certainly be contacting him again for any of my own future projects.
Stepping Stone landscape just renovated my front patio from ugly, broken slate over a cracked concrete slab to a new, beautiful Italian pavers. They did a wonderful job and did it in one week, great craftsmanship and very professional. I will contact them again on future projects! ;)
We built a small pond in our side yard about 15 years ago. We loved the look of it, but time takes its toll, and our pond filtration system proved frustrating. We talked with Erik about rebuilding the existing area and finding a filtration system that provided a comforting sound, easy maintenance, and was raccoon-proof. We felt comfortable with his professional, congenial, and focused manner. After agreeing to his proposal, which offered multiple solutions, he came out and renewed our beautiful pond. Remember the raccoons? Well they were busy the other night. At a spry 73, I didn’t feel like dealing with it. I hesitated about calling Erik, but did, and he graciously came out to reconnect the pump. Every interaction with Erik has been responsive, honest, and warm. I’ve done a lot of projects and have no hesitation to call Erik again when we want to bring new life to our home. Sincerely Doug and Melissa
Erik and team were awesome and a pleasure to work with from the very start. They were super professional and were always responsive and reliable (would come when they said they would). They helped us transform our backyard into exactly what we had envisioned and couldn't be happier with the result! We would definitely recommend their services if you're in need of landscape work on your home in the SD area!
We hired Erik to transform our unusable backyard space to something the whole family could enjoy. His designs were beautiful and helped narrow down our concept. Erik’s bid to do the work was reasonable and within budget with a fast start and end date. His team was polite, talented, cleaned up each day, finished on time, and Erik was there each day to answer any questions and fill us in on next steps. We would definitely work with Stepping Stone on future projects and recommend the company to friends.
Great company, very professional and very responsive. I have used Unique home builders for all my outdoor needs. Highly recommended Ben
Stepping Stone Landscape Design exceeded our expectations. They were a delight to work with and did a fabulous job from start to finish! We would highly recommend for your landscape needs!!
Can t say enough good things about Erik and the team. He was clear with his communication, timeline was on time, and the work turned out just as we had hoped. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to get some landscaping done.
We had a very small job and Erik treated me like it was important to him. Plus he has a great crew with Roberto and his son.
Always accommodating, listens and delivers.
I had Stepping Stone Landscape Design designed a portions of my front and back yards last year with low water usage plants. The designer was able to blend the new plants with the existing ones and the results shown this year was beautiful. Beside recommending a good selections of plants, they also assisted me with plant suppliers, installation tips and promptly response to my questions. I would recommend Stepping Stone Landscape Design to all anyone.
Excellent experience! Eric and his team were very responsive. He really took the time to listen to my ideas for the backyard. His computerized renderings of ideas for the yard really helped give detail to the overall plan.
Erik and Stepping Stone Landscape did a complete renovation of our exterior landscaping, driveway, patio and walkways. Erik listened to our ideas and created a design that captured everything we communicated and pulled it together so that it tied in perfectly with our freshly painted house. Roberto, the job foreman, was professional in every aspect of his work and always did his best to minimize the disruption such a project creates for the homeowners and the neighbors. His, and his team s, attention to detail was on display through every aspect of the project and Roberto often fixed things that I would have never noticed. Overall, the work they did to create our new outdoors far exceeded our high expectations, and they did it on schedule and on budget. Erik was also very easy to work with and he communicated with us continually and kept us updated as the job progressed. I recommend them without hesitation and, in fact, have already started to talk with Erik about another project.
Fantastic experience working with Stepping Stone to completely transform our house from the existing turf into the desert landscape we had always wanted. Right off the bat they worked with us to understand exactly what we had in mind, and gave us great insight into what options made sense for our house. Throughout the project every step was communicated clearly, and any questions or concerns were answered immediately. We absolutely love the new view from our kitchen!
I took a landscape class several months ago in April. As a result of the excellent class, I asked for a referral to help with my landscape project. I was provided with the name of Erik von Koehe, owner of Stepping Stone Landscape Design. Erik just finished our project yesterday, and I cant say enough good things about him. We worked together from the design drawings through the entire project. I believe it looks great. He was so considerate to make sure everything was just as I requested it to be done, including type of plants, color of rocks, placement of paver stones, etc. Erik was also very pleasant, knowledgeable, and helpful. He was prompt in response to my emails and text messages. Furthermore, Erik provided invaluable assistance in dealing with various neighbor and tenant issues. I just wanted to note my appreciation. I would highly recommend him for anyone considering landscape design and yard improvements!
We recently hired Erik at Stepping Stone Landscape Design to redo our backyard. We couldn t be more pleased. We gave Erik an idea of what we wanted and trusted him to choose the plants appropriate for a drought-tolerant landscape. When he presented the plan, I suggested a few different plants. He had no problem incorporating my few suggestions and even went to great lengths to locate a hard-to-find specific tree I hoped to have in my backyard. Erik is professional and never misses an appointment. When he says he will be there at 8:00 am, he will be there. As important, the follow-up on the project is greatly appreciated. His crew was respectful of our property and completed the project in a timely manner. It looks great and we are so pleased with the results. I will definitely recommend him to anyone seeking landscape design and installation services in the San Diego area.
I ve done Work for Eric as a sub contractor and I m personally impressed how he is very selective on who he chooses for his Clients home. Doesn t cut corners and Makes sure they Will deliver High Value instead of Hiring the cheapest company. I would choose Eric to work on my Home. Ps very Friendly and Up front man.
It was pure joy working with this crew! They were pleasant and professional and addressed all of our questions with the utmost respect and care. Erik goes the distance to get to know his clients and did a phenomenal job identifying our style. The Stepping Stone crew completely transformed our yard and installed a quality irrigation system with diligence and precision. We are extremely satisfied and would HIGHLY recommend Erik and his crew.
Stepping Stone Landscaping was so great to work with on the installation of a landscape renovation. Erik and his crew were professional and offered constructive solutions for design and building a large water feature, a new fire bowl, renovating and expanding an old landscape lighting system, and installing trees and mulch ground over. I highly recommend them!
I called several landscape companies that either didnt get back to me or never followed up with a quote. After reading a few reviews I decided to call Stepping Stone Landscape. Erik called me the same day and we met a day or two later. Erik made everything so easy and really knew what we wanted. His crew was fantastic !! Several times a week Erik would text pictures and videos of progress - he was always happy to answer questions as well. We will be going with Erik and his crew for our front yard as well. Thank you Erik, Roberto & Diego !!
Part of getting a job done is how well the parties communicate/get-along. Erik quickly grasp my plans, but more importantly, the vision, so we were on track throughout. All were focused on my project. The experience and creativity of Eriks crew was obvious when an obstacle was encountered. Solution were implemented without delay. The crew was conscientious, not a shirker in the lot. I chose to do part of the work myself, and extra hands were available when I needed them. Eric made sure they had all the material when needed so there was no idle time. Small (and large :o ) details were quickly corrected. My past experience with contractors had left me wary about my tools. With Stepping Stone, this experience was exceptional, particularly in the respect that was given to the tools that were mine. While clean up was great, separating into landfill, recycle and yard waste did not really happen. (I had to put in a wart so the reader can know that I was truly a client.) If I have another project, Ill be back
Finding a good contractor to work with can be a challenging experience, but not with Stepping Stone Landscape. Working with Erik and his team was a pleasure. They understood my concerns, listened to my recommendations and took them into account when developing the plan for my backyard. I had to make certain that the plants were dog-friendly and that was not an issue for Erik s team. The team was courteous and cleaned-up every evening before they left. They finished within the time frame detailed in the contract and everything in my backyard was put back in place before they left. I would highly recommend Stepping Stone Landscape. They do outstanding work.
Eric from Stepping Stone brings forth great ideas, is responsive, courteous and an all around wonderful contractor to work with. I recommend him if youre looking for a partner in creating a fabulous space.
