Mesa yards

Mesa has some of the oldest yards in the East Valley.

Large parts of Mesa were built long before the newer suburbs around it. Those lots tend to be wider, with mature shade trees, bermed grass and irrigation that has been patched many times over the years.

Mesa also keeps growing east, where newer communities like Eastmark have yards built to current HOA standards. Our landscaping services in Mesa, AZ cover both, and the work looks very different depending on which end of town you are in.

Ready when you areReady to update your Mesa yard? CGL Landscaping provides landscaping services in Mesa, AZ from Dobson Ranch to east Mesa, with the same Chandler crew and a firm written quote. Book a free on-site estimate or call (480) 219-0038.

What older Mesa lots often need
Services in Mesa

Everything a Mesa yard needs, from one crew.

These six service groups cover nearly every Mesa job we see. Each one links to a page with the details.

On older Mesa properties we usually start with trees and water, since those decide what else can grow. On newer lots in east Mesa, design and hardscape tend to come first.

01

Trimming, raising and removing the big mesquites and shade trees that older Mesa lots are known for.

02

Sod, overseeding and edging for Mesa lawns worth keeping.

03

Leaks traced, zones rebuilt and drip added where grass comes out.

04

New concrete, pavers and walls to replace worn surfaces.

05

A plan for turning a dated Mesa yard into one that fits how you live now.

06

Regular visits to keep a large lot under control.

Is your Mesa yard overdue for an update?

We will walk it with you, point out what is worth keeping and quote the rest for free.

Keep what works

On older Mesa lots, we check what is worth saving.

A mature tree can take decades to grow and minutes to lose. Before we suggest tearing anything out of a Mesa yard, we look at the trees, the soil and the existing water lines to see what can stay.

Some yards in older neighborhoods still flood irrigate, with berms holding water on the lawn. We find out how your lot is watered first, because it changes where grass, rock and new plants make sense.

How it works in Mesa

How we take a Mesa yard from dated to done.

Redoing an established yard means working around what is already there. We plan the order of work so the trees and lines you keep come through without damage.

New build lots in east Mesa follow a simpler path, but the first steps are the same. We start with a walk and a written quote for every Mesa property, old or new.

01

Site look

Trees, soil, lines and grades checked on site.

02

Keep or replace

We agree on what stays and what goes.

03

Written price

Scope and cost down on paper.

04

Clear and prep

Old grass, concrete or roots taken out.

05

Install

New surfaces, plants and water lines put in.

Near Mesa

Cities that border Mesa.

Mesa is a big city, and it touches a lot of our service area. Gilbert and Tempe sit on its south and west sides, and Apache Junction is just past its east edge.

If you live near one of those lines, we can help either way. Each nearby city has its own page with the work we see most there.

Pricing

How a Mesa landscaping quote comes together.

We price every Mesa job after seeing it. On older properties, what is already in the ground matters as much as what goes in.

Removing a stump, a cracked slab or a buried sprinkler line takes time before new work can start. These four factors explain most of the difference between two Mesa quotes.

Lot size

Wider Mesa lots mean more ground to grade, plant and water.

Removal work

Old concrete, grass, stumps or roots that have to come out first.

Tree size

Big canopies take more time and equipment to trim safely.

Water setup

Repairing old lines costs less than replacing a whole system.

The full scope and price are written out before we start.

Slick landscaping did a great job transforming our yard. Zach was professional and kept us updated throughout the process. Pricing was very reasonable for the quality of work. They completed everything quickly and efficiently. The final result looked clean and well done. Communication was excellent the whole time. I would definitely use them again.

Best landscapers I’ve ever had! I live in an HOA with very strict rules and they did an absolutely fabulous job. So thankful to have found them. Each of their employees are extremely hard working and even go above and beyond wiping off patio furniture and making every part of the front/backyard presentable. Can’t wait to see them again!

We’ve been working with CGL for nearly a year now, and they’ve been incredible. They helped us get our irrigation system back on track after our previous landscaper severely dropped the ball. Additionally, anytime we had an emergency leak, they were on-site within a few hours at most. Their responsiveness, professionalism, and quality of work have been outstanding. It's also nice to work with someone like Jose and can answer all of your questions and explain everything in such detail to ensure you understand the issue(s) at hand. Highly recommend!

I recently hired CGL Landscaping for sod installation at my home in Phoenix, and they did a fantastic job. From the initial consultation to the final touches, their professionalism and expertise were evident. They prepared the soil and installed high-quality, lush sod that transformed my yard. CGL Landscaping's attention to detail and customer service set them apart. They ensured proper irrigation, provided aftercare instructions, and even followed up to check on the sod's progress. The project was completed on time and within the estimated timeframes Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with CGL Landscaping. Their commitment to quality and outstanding customer service have earned my trust and future business. I highly recommend them for any landscaping needs in the Phoenix area.

CGL Landscaping has been great to work with. We reached out to Jose to get an estimate for a one time clean up and monthly service. Jose and Alan showed up the next day to provide an estimate for both services. We elected to move forward with CGL and the clean up crew was out the following day to complete services. Two weeks later, the monthly maintenance crew showed up to complete our first monthly service. Invoicing and payment is easy through an online portal. Jose and Alan were both responsive throughout the process and were accessible via text, email or phone call. So far we are very pleased with our services through CGL and would recommend them to anyone looking for landscaping services.

CGL landscaping made the process super easy from start to finish. Jose came out quickly to give me a proposal and I got it the same day. Scheduling was also very easy, and my project was done on time. Would recommend CGL to anyone if you’re looking for great work and great customer service.

I used to use another landscaping company and they never did the job right, along with that the communication was not there, never got returned calls and it was impossible to reach someone. Then I found CGL Landscaping. They were quick to come out for a free estimate and communication was always and still there. One of the office workers, Alan, is always there to answer and if he doesn't, he is quick to respond. Thank you CGL for 3 great years and many more to come!

SUPER TOP NOTCH COMPANY Best experience, Jose was kind and understanding of my situation. I had LNR landscaping put in synthetic turf in my front yard, did a horrible job. After months of trying to get them to come back, after they’ve been paid in full to fix it. They stopped returning phone calls , never kept set appointments to come and fix it. I called Jose and they blew me away, they came right away, crew was all friendly and got the job done quickly. They went above and beyond I was just thinking they to fix what was there but the job was so bad they removed it all and replaced the whole area. Definitely will recommend to everyone I know. Thanks Jose and team that came today you made my nightmare a beauty that I can now enjoy when I walk out my door.

I worked with Jose and his team and found them to be professional, courteous and trustworthy. My yard looks amazing. Jose was patient with me as I made a few changes from my original design. The trees they planted are looking healthy as well as the flower bed, Jose offered to provided care to my front yard and it turned out awesome. He also offered to made a nice area for my dog it turned out great. My plan is to continue with CGL Landscaping for maintenance. Thank you Jose for a job well done. Linda Coolidge, AZ

I rarely, if ever, write reviews let alone give someone a 5-star rating unless they REALLY deserve it. We interviewed 4 landscaping companies before we selected Creative Green Landscaping. We chose them because they were very knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable from our very first meeting. Jose (the owner) made it clear that our satisfaction was their number one goal. He definitely followed through and they did a beautiful job. They started the work immediately and throughout the project they showed up early and stayed late. They worked hard and provided quality work. When we decided last minute to make changes, they were flexible and helpful. We have had our fair share of negative contractor experiences, so we appreciate good and honest firms like Creative Green Landscaping. We highly recommend them for your project.
Questions

Mesa landscaping questions.

Mesa homeowners ask a lot about older yards, big trees and irrigation. These answers cover the questions we get most.

Every Mesa property is a little different, so a walk of the yard gives the most accurate answer. The estimate costs you nothing.

Yes. We plan around the flood schedule and the berms, or talk through changing parts of the yard to sprinklers or drip if that suits you better.

Often. We trim and thin mature trees, and we work around their roots when we put in new hardscape or lines.

Yes. We work in newer east Mesa communities as well as the older neighborhoods closer to downtown.

Our shop is in Chandler, and we cover Mesa from there. Call to confirm scheduling if your address is on the far east side near Usery Mountain.

Yes. We remove the grass, change the watering to drip and put in rock and desert plants that handle the heat.

Yes. We offer maintenance visits on a schedule that fits the size of the lot, from weekly to seasonal.

Where we work

Landscaping across Mesa, from Dobson Ranch to Eastmark.

We work all over Mesa, from Dobson Ranch in the west to Las Sendas near Red Mountain and the newer homes in Eastmark. Every job is served from our Chandler shop.

Mesa lies in Maricopa County, with the Salt River to its north and the Usery Mountains on its northeast edge. Soil ranges from sandy to hard caliche, and we test how it drains before planting.

Mesa projects

Four jobs that come up on Mesa properties.

These four services cover a large share of the Mesa work we do. Each links to a page with more detail.

They also tend to go together. A tree gets thinned, the lawn gets resodded and the old patio gets replaced, all on one Mesa lot.

/01

Mature shade trees thinned, raised and cleaned up.

/02

Water sent straight to plants when a lawn is replaced.

/03

New grass for Mesa yards where the lawn is staying.

/04

Old cracked slabs broken out and poured fresh.
