Being an older La Jolla home that has been through several updates of different styles over the years, there were multiple mini projects to accomplish. The work they did included extensive vine and root removal, brick work, extending a retaining wall, building a fence, rock-scaping, sod laying, irrigation work, and planting a variety of plants including privacy bushes, small plants, succulents, and a fruit tree. The Bilt by Cam crew did such a nice job and finished quickly.

Steve is an absolute artist with color, texture, form, and overall design. He has an exceptional eye for combining different succulents in a way that feels balanced, unique, and more like living art. Steve's relationships with boutique private growers allows him to source unusual, high-quality specimen plants and varieties. If you are looking for a succulent or drought-tolerant landscape, I HIGHLY recommend Garden Rhythms. Steve's artistic vision, plant knowledge, rare sourcing connections, and attention to detail made all the difference. FIVE stars without hesitation!!

Steve and his crew are very professional and his enthusiasm for the project showed through. I cannot recommend Steve enough.

The whole team even took an old playhouse and redesigned it safely for our kids on the hill. Matt's design, attention to detail, and the time he took with our project was above and beyond. He answered every call and text quickly. I couldn't have asked for more. I've already recommended SD3D to all of my neighbors, and recommend them for small or large projects.

Small yard? No worries, Brookside has your back!…read more If you buy new construction these days you can pretty much kiss that yard space goodbye. Finding ourselves in this situation, we needed a team that could transform our "cozy" yard into a comfortable yet elevated outdoor living space. Enter Brookside. You know that feeling when you hire someone to do a big home project and hope that everything goes well, but you kind of hold your breath in the event that something goes awry? That won't happen with Brookside. From our initial call to the thanks-for-everything completion hand shake, they didn't skip a beat. Everything went SO smooth and communication was on point the entire time. Brookside is a well oiled machine. The conversations between us, Brooks and Jenny, and the crew were fluid the entire time and no one was ever in the dark about the plan. On top of that, everyone was so personable and professional. These guys are hard workers and leave your space clean and organized at the end of every day. We were so happy with how our space turned out. Brookside took our basic ideas for hardscape and softscape to the next level and created a beautiful designer yard. We would hire Brookside again in a heartbeat- and you should too!

The finished product is genuinely a 10/10, the design, layout, attention to detail, and overall quality of the work exceeded our expectations. What impressed us just as much as the final result was the entire experience getting there. Ronnie met with me numerous times to walk through details, answer questions, make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it, and accommodate plenty of little changes along the way without ever making it feel like a burden. His communication and flexibility were incredible. His crew was equally impressive, professional, respectful, hardworking, and clearly takes a ton of pride in what they do. They were even able to start earlier than originally planned and finished ahead of schedule, which was a huge help for us during an already hectic home build. Ronnie also went above and beyond in ways he absolutely did not have to, including a very thoughtful gift for my wife and me at the end of the project. That kind of personal touch says a lot about the way he runs his business and treats his customers. We've worked with a lot of different contractors throughout our build, and Ronnie and his team truly stand out. The craftsmanship is outstanding, the service was exceptional, and the entire process could not have gone better. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone considering pavers or a driveway project. Thank you Ronnie and the entire crew, you guys absolutely crushed it!

If you are thinking about hiring Lorenzo and his team, don't hesitate Just hire them!…read more We recently had them complete a major project involving drainage installation and replacing an entire gravel side driveway with clean, paved concrete. To say the work was outstanding would be an understatement. Lorenzo is the ultimate professional. Right from the start, everything was put into a clear contract--in writing--with fair progress payments as the project advanced. There was zero BS, and absolute transparency throughout the entire process. Everything with Lorenzo is 100% aboveboard. On top of that, his crew's work ethic is unreal. They showed up on time every day in the middle of August, grinding it out in 90+ degree heat to get the job done. The attention to detail and overall quality of the final result blew us away.

The fire pit installed by this company exploded into my girlfriend's face. We had an independent professional company come out to inspect the unit and the gas line. Their findings were shocking: the gas connection was completely loose. This negligence allowed gas to build up inside the fire pit structure, which caused it to explode upon ignition. Because of the physical injuries sustained and the absolute gross negligence regarding a gas installation, we are now taking this company to litigation. If you value the safety of your home and your family, stay far away from this business. A "loose connection" on a gas line is not just a mistake--it is a deadly hazard. We are currently in the process of legal action to hold them accountable for the damage and trauma they have caused. Zero stars. Avoid at all costs.
