We had an great experience with Woodlands Escapes! From start to finish, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do.
They completely transformed our front yard. Everything from the new plant selection to the clean bed lines and stone work looks fantastic. The layout feels thoughtfully designed, and you can tell they paid attention to every detail, especially around the foundation and drainage improvements. The mix of plants, fresh mulch, and rock accents really elevated the overall look of our home. We can’t wait to see the plants bloom and fill everything in over time!
When the owner, Leo came out to review the work, he was very chill and easy to talk to. You can tell he genuinely cares about his craft. He didn’t try to oversell us on anything and instead listened to us and helped recommend plants that would be low maintenance and practical for us to take care of, which we really appreciated.
The crew worked efficiently, kept everything clean, and communicated clearly throughout the project. Pricing was fair and transparent, and the final result exceeded our expectations.
If you’re looking for a landscaping company that delivers high quality work and great customer service, I highly recommend Woodlands Escapes and Zero Waste Houston. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out!

If I could give zero stars for this business I would, the owner Leo has serious anger issues and insults his customers. DO NOT give these people your business

We hired Woodlands Escapes to redo our front yard flower beds. Leo was wonderful to work with. It took a bit of time between the quote and the work beginning (he’s a busy guy plus it’s been rainy this summer) but once he was able to schedule his crew, the yard came together in three days. He planted native plants that will come back year after year. I can’t wait to see what it looks like as the plants mature and begin to fill in. Leo was here every day that work was being done and I appreciated his hands on approach.

We had a wonderful and highly educational experience with Leo. He was on site every step of the way, provided us with detailed plans, loads of native plant knowlege, and he even came back to check on how well the plants were holding up.

I hired Leo and his team for a complete makeover of our tired-looking front yard. He came up with a very thoughtful design utilizing native plants and large stones which completely transformed the place! I highly recommend Leo and his company.

After installing a pool we had Woodland Escapes coordinate the repairs to the sprinkler system and redo our landscaping. They did exactly what they said they would do in an extremely timely manner and provided great communication throughout. I would highly recommend Woodland Escapes for your landscaping needs.

When my normal lawn service fell through for the final time after eviscerating my lawn and breaking my sprinkler system, I turned to woodlands escapes and they got my yard inspection ready in a short turn around for my wife and my gender reveal.Services: Lawn mowing & maintenance

Leo and his team recently completed a complete yard design makeover in March of 2022. Leo is incredibly knowledgeable and gave me a thorough analysis of my yards current condition and what improvements could be made to enhance the look and health of the yard. It took him about a week to get a quote and team lined up. This was a sizeable job and the team assigned reflected this. A swarm of workers showed up on a Friday and completed the entire job in less than a day. I was amazed. We had a light freeze right after the job was completed but the plants Leo used were all hardy varieties purposely used due for their ability to survive the wild fluctuations in Texas weather. Now that things have settled in for a month or so, the yard is flourishing and looks great. I would highly recommend Woodlands Escapes for your small or large landscaping needs.Services: Pool landscaping

I cannot say enough good things about this company. We purchased a new home with a bland backyard consisting of just two trees. Leo turned it into a sanctuary for us to sit, relax and enjoy. I asked him to install trees, vines, shrubs and flowers that were native and hardy and I wouldn't have to do a lot of maintenance. He not only did this but planned to have seasonal colors (and scents) emerge throughout the year, provided privacy from the house being built next door, installed drainage so that my yard would not flood, and added some ambiance by adding a beautiful walkway throughout the yard. He looked at every detail considering things I had not thought of such as how to create a path so that I could take off the spa cover without stepping on plants and mow the yard in a continuous path, again without disturbing the plants. The original builder had, as is typical, put shrubs in the front that look good for the first year but are quickly overgrown or inappropriate for a front yard. Leo removed these but rather than getting rid of them, he put them in various locations in the back or side yard to save money and not waste the plants. Even after Leo received his final payment, he returned to the house to make sure the sprinkler system was watering appropriately and all of the plants were taking hold. I plan to use Leo to maintain my yard going forward and highly recommend his business without reservation. A gem.
