We hired Griffin's to redo our backyard landscape and to refresh and add plants to desert landscape in the front. We added pavers, removed grass, added turf and new plants. His crew knew what they were doing and did a great job transforming our landscaping. Mike is easy to work with and honest.

Mike is a great choice for landscaping projects. He helped us make some great plant choices and guided us through all the other decisions with good advise. The work was competed very quickly once started and still looks great 6months later.

Any positive thing I could say about this company, I would. I just moved into a new construction home and have been scrambling to get everything together. I sent Mike a general idea of what we wanted with a price point, and he very quickly wrote back with a general outline and estimate. When the date came, the workers were efficient, detail oriented, and polite. My entire backyard (pavers and artificial turf) took about 3-4 days! Any bumps we hit along the way, Mike was quick to jump on to ensure the process continued smoothly. Would recommend anyone to reach out if they have any type of landscaping

Very happy with Mike's work. Completely redid front and backyard - included pavers, built in BBQ, stucco & pop-out work, water feature, artificial turf, landscape lighting, and trees/plants. He has a great crew that works hard and did not leave until the job was done. Started when he promised and finished when he said it would be done. Very professional - crew completely cleaned up everything. Good value and excellent work.

Mike and his crew did a great job with our backyard project. We bought a new build and had a blank canvas to work with. He was super knowledgeable and provided design suggestions that helped us to make informed decisions. We priced out multiple companies and found this to be one of the more competitive quotes without sacrificing any kind of quality. Would definitely recommend!

I am so in love with our new backyard! From start to finish, this has been one of the best companies I've worked with. Mike has great communication and installers were polite and respectful. If you are looking for someone to do your yard, honestly look no further :)

It is really great when you get to work with a company like Griffin's Desert Scapes. Mike is great to work with, and is extremely helpful to assist in creating a plan for a beautiful yard, or yards in my case. I hard a large tree that was interfering with the concrete patio area. Each one of the posts in my patio had to be replaced with concrete anchors. The job started on schedule and turned out really nicely. I had pavers, trees and plants installed. Three years later we were lucky enough to use Griffins Desert Scapes on my front yard and exterior entrance. We couldn't be happier. Do not hesitate

Seriously, look no further. After getting the run around from other companies a friend recommended Mike Griffin. Grateful forever for this referral. One, he came in the morning for an estimate, listened, took measurements, made suggestions. Two, we received the estimate two hours later, no kidding. Three, the estimate was the most reasonable and affordable of all the bids we had. Four, he communicated with us about start date, length and exactly what would take place. Five, his crew knows exactly what to do and they get after it. Six, the end product was - exactly - what we wanted. And there you

AFTER SPEAKING TO A FEW COMPANIES, I WAS IMPRESSED WITH MIKE'S PROFESSIONALISM AND HIRED HIS COMPANY TO REMOVE EXISTING BRICK PATIOS AND REPLACE THEM AND THE SURROUNDING POOL AREA WITH TRAVERTINE TILE AS WELL AS REPLACING A STAND ALONE GRILL IN THE OUTDOOR KITCHEN WITH A BUILT IN UNIT, ADDING 2 FT SLUMP BLOCK WALLS AND A FRENCH DRAIN. I WAS TOTALLY IMPRESSED WITH THE ARTISAN TALENT OF THE CREW AND THEIR TIMELINESS IN COMPLETING THE ENTIRE JOB.THIS LARGE TASK ONLY TOOK THEM 7.3 DAYS TO COMPLETE AND I PINCH MYSELF WHEN I LOOK OUT AT THIS GORGEOUS RESORT LOOKING BACKYARD. THEY WENT ABOVE MY EXPECTATIONS

This was an amazing experience from initial quote to job completion. The owner, Mike Griffin, is professional, courteous, thorough and extremely knowledgeable. His team worked 8 to 9 hours per day M to F for 2 weeks to complete our job (ahead of schedule) and we love our yard! Top notch matierials, beautiful workmanship, incredible ambiance with the subtle strategically placed lighting and the custom fireplace is a work of art! We can't wait for it to cool down so we can enjoy the new yard even more!

Mike came out and gave us an estimate on a property early in the morning, he was prompt, professional, and extremely knowledgeable! Had me a quote within a few hours! Being a real estate agent it is extremely difficult to find people who have all of these qualities and who actually get back to you. I would recommend Mike to anyone who is looking into getting a competitive, honest quote for their landscaping needs. We need more people like Mike in the industry! I can't wait to refer Griffin's Desert Scapes to all our clients!

Mike at azdesertscapes was awesome. During the quote he listen to my vision and made it come true 10 times over. I never imagined my back yard and front yard to look this awesome. I love the work and was surprised when I came home to a whole new house. I love the work they did and for how small of a yard I have, it made it look bigger by illusion.

Please hit up Mike at azdesertscapes.com. He will transform your yard to the paradise of your dreams. I am just raving about the job and cannot stop looking and enjoying my yard. I love it so much.

Thanks

This is the best landscape company I have ever worked with! They do what they say they're going do and the follow up has been extraordinary. Mike, the owner, initially came out to give me an estimate and spent over an hour with me, giving me so many different options (for materials, colors, designs, etc.) for how to install landscaping in my backyard (and we ended up having some money left over to do a little bit in the front as well :-).

They were a little more expensive than some of the other companies I got estimates from, but it was so worth it. They ended up starting ahead of schedule

We selected Griffins to resurface existing pool deck and patio with pavers. Additionally we upgraded a connecting walkway between the patio and pool so that everything matched. The work took alittle longer than expected due to a high number of cuts required by the curved pool deck. We feel that you get what you pay for so while we could have found less expensive options we doubt that the end result would come close to what Griffins produced. The crew was excellent and produced beatiful results. The design ideas that were offered by Mike Griffin were perfect. We recommend Griffins and would use

We have used Griffin's Desert Scapes for two fairly large projects in the past four years, and we are very pleased with the results. The first project was renovating our backyard-- taking previously unusable space (gravel and a hideous fountain) and turning it into a beautiful travertine deck with a fire pit. They also did some lighting which highlighted the deck, a pathway and our citrus trees, and this turned out phenomenal. We really enjoy our time out there now. Friends and family members have commented that our backyard looks like a resort.

A year or so later, we had Mike and his

We used Griffin's Desert Scapes for a paver project. The owner, Mike is related to the other landscaper, Unique Landscapes By Griffin, who only does the large landscaping jobs. If you request an estimate from Unique Landscapes and it doesn't exceed a certain dollar amount, they will refer you to Griffin's Desert Scapes. Our initial contact with the owner Mike was very positive. He responds quickly and has very competitive prices. He will also promise you the world when it comes time to responding to issues with the actual work. The reality is that once he has a deposit in hand, his
