WOW - that's what I have to say after the wonderful job Gaston and his crews accomplished in my front yard. The only regret I have is I can only give him 5 stars - what he accomplished is worth at least 10 to 15 stars. When we started, Gaston and myself stood on the side walk facing the house. I told him - "When you are finished - I want the WOW look". I want to look at the finished work and go WOW - well, now I go WOW WOW WOW.
He and his crew put in a small 50' retainer wall and about 1250 square feet of pavers with bull nose caps and steps. The job they did was amazing. But before I go any further, let me say I am a retired engineer, IT consultant and Global Project Manager (where everything has to be perfect) or my clients will not be happy. I am a perfectionist and very anal about my property. I have worked with a lot of contractors in the past and Gaston was the best one I have ever met and work with. He follows through on everything he says he will do.
Gaston and his crews exceeded my expectations. But most of all Gaston went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. He was great to work with and was on the job always managing the crews. He communicated to the crews how I wanted the final look to be.
I interviewed at least 6 other contractors. Their prices were between Beverly Hills and the high-end properties of Orange County. After System Pavers (one of the bidders) came in and I gave them my designs, walked them through the property, explained what I wanted and how I wanted it, (which had about 85% of the final demolition completed), the really arrogant sales rep told me he did not want the job, got in his car and drove away. He did not want to work with me because I knew what I wanted. He understood he could not rip me off.
Gaston on the other hand worked with me, gave me a fair bid (not the lowest), but I knew from talking to him, he would be the one I wanted to work with on this project.
Gaston can use this job as a reference if he likes - just ask him for my address. You can see the fantastic work from the front of the house.
THANK YOU, Gaston read more
