I read the other two reviews and a lot must have changed with this company since they were written…read more Our tenants had cement delivered to our rental property in Escondido in early November, unfortunately the driver hit and took down a 25 ft palm tree which caused damage to the tenants work trailer. We have been speaking with Brian since November who assured us we would be taken care of. My husband had given him the quotes we had from a previous tree incident that occurred in 2020 with a different company. We agreed to the amount from those estimates to be used to expedite the process in getting reimbursed in order to repair the damage made. After 6 weeks of hearing it is being processed we are now being told he is not authorized to make that decision and we are back to square one with the settlement. At todays prices the cost has gone up substantially so we were being kind in going with the old prices. The company is self insured so we are hoping that the owner of this company, Jack Brouwer who apparently is the person to make the final decision (not Brian as we were told) does the right thing for us in settling this matter quickly as we have already waited 6 weeks. I will update this review as settlement is reached.

He also does not charge you until he has completed the job (which is great). He did such Beautiful work and we are now super happy. I understand other peoples frustrations on their reviews from their experience, however, we may not know what is actually going on, on his end. I promise you won't be disappointed if you give him a chance. P.S. I did talk to Oscar about the rude hang ups and what not and he said that at the time he had someone working for him that would take the calls and make appointments, he has since let that person go.

The morning of the start of the project, Alex came to go over the project with my husband to make sure they were both understanding of the work that was to be done. My husband was concerned about a drain pipe next to where the cement would be poured, and was worried about it being damaged during the dirt removal. After the dirt was removed, Alex ran water down the drain to show us that the pipe was undamaged. He listened to my husband and made sure to pour the cement a couple inches from the drain pipe, so there was no chance of any damage. Alex was also very flexible with scheduling. He was able to reschedule the cement pour day on short notice, so that my husband would be home on that day. Alex and his crew arrived on time, which I appreciate. I've had a lot of work done in the past, and it always upsets me when contractors are late. At the end of each workday, the crew cleaned meticulously to ensure the work area was clear of dirt and debris. Alex and his crew were always respectful of our property. The price was very reasonable, and I had received more than 8 bids. Alex is honest, a good communicator, and his crew are hardworking and punctual. I'd highly recommend giving Alex a call.
