Services
Pool Design
We create custom pool designs tailored to desert climates using advanced 3D modeling technology. Our process includes site analysis, material selection, and integration with surrounding landscapes. Clients receive detailed digital renderings before construction begins, ensuring alignment with their vision for outdoor living spaces.
Landscape Design
Our landscape design service combines aesthetic appeal with desert sustainability. Using computer-aided design tools, we develop layouts featuring native plants, hardscapes, and water-efficient irrigation systems. Projects include residential yards, commercial properties, and large-scale developments across the Phoenix metropolitan area.
Water Features
We install custom water features including fountains, waterfalls, and pondless systems. These elements enhance outdoor environments while complementing existing pool and landscape designs. Our team ensures proper integration with drainage systems and surrounding hardscapes for long-term functionality.
Ramadas
Our ramada construction creates shaded outdoor living areas suited to Arizona's climate. These structures incorporate durable materials like concrete, wood, and metal to withstand desert conditions. We customize designs to include lighting, ceiling fans, and integration with other outdoor features.
Turf Installation
We install low-maintenance artificial turf solutions for residential and commercial properties. This service includes site preparation, base installation, and synthetic grass placement that mimics natural lawns. Our products require no irrigation while maintaining aesthetic appeal in desert environments.

We absolutely love the way our pool/backyard turned out!! We worked with Raheem and he was great. Poco Verde was our recommended pool co. From our home builder DR Horton. I would highly recommend this company who is looking for great work/quality and a very reasonable price.

We moved here from the Midwest so we did not know a lot about the landscaping companies down here. After doing some searching, getting quotes and talking with staff, we chose Poco Verde Pools and Landscapes. The staff was professional and, even with recent supply slumps, completed the projects to our satisfaction. We had Poco Verde do our landscaping and pool and we LOVE it! They did an outstanding job and we would use them again!

I will give this business another opportunity, based off the possibility that a missed email occurred and revise or amend my review based on this new dealing. I've changed one star to 3 pending results. Met with Gary, and was initially impressed. Raheem submitted a design, I sent back a slight change adding artificial turf. Then silence. No response to email, or phone messages. I have a new build Fulton Home and they were the preferred Landscaper. What a total disappointment. No one in Fulton Homes Estrella Commons is using them. That should've been my sign to avoid.

Working with Poco verde was anything but professional. It is just a bunch of lies. They said that they take two weeks to start the project from the moment we pay half down.

You have to measure constantly what you are paying for because they will do whatever the work feels like that day. Correspondence is anything but professional. I have found that if I call 3 or 4 people and leave voicemails asking for
