We reached out to his office, and communication was prompt, professional, and easy throughout the entire process. To our surprise and appreciation, he personally came out with his team to take a look and addressed every concern right away. They fixed everything quickly and efficiently, and made sure everything was working and looking great again. It's rare these days to find a company that stands behind their work years later, but Swanson Landscaping truly does. Their commitment to customer service and quality really shows. We're so grateful they made everything right, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, honest landscaping services in Livermore!

The team was always on time, clearly communicated updates to us, and kept the area clean and tidy.

The end product is just what we wanted. The communication and quality is what stood out to us most when working with Sal. We had a lot questions throughout and asked to make changes along the way, they accommodated every request with no problems. Their pricing was also competitive with market rates and Sal was able to work with us on our budget. We still have more to go with adding plants in the spring. We'll be continuing to work with him and his team on the plants since we had such a good experience. We have recommended Sal and Vineyard Landscaping to friends and family.

We love it! Rebate approved. Happy customer.

I reached out to Charles as we were in the middle of a whole home renovation on our home that was…read morebuilt in '84 and came with 3 gas-log fireplaces. With several of the walls opened up and the previous fireplace inserts and exhaust tubing exposed, I felt it was a good time to have the fireplaces and chimney exteriors inspected and deep cleaned. Charles was timely, pricing felt reasonable for the work performed, and he provided quite a bit of educational feedback on fireplaces and fire safety, including some feedback for our GC on proper configurations for the fireplace hearth and framework. Two of our 3 fireplaces were very heavily used by the previous owner and per Charles' feedback, a couple decades overdue for cleaning. While it is hard to tell at face value what was actually cleaned, Charles provides a thorough report for each fireplace and inspection pictures that showed some before & after examples. All of the chimney's are clean now and safe to use. Thanks again, Charles.

Better to be safe, we decided to have a local certified fire technician (Charlie Dunn & Sons) inspect it. Turns out that one of the "fly by night" chimney sweep guys reinstalled the deflector incorrectly! Others that read this, I beg you not to resort to these "fly by night" people that come in with low quotes, and then tell you more work is needed once they get there. Charlie, I want to thank you for your thorough inspection and educating me on the finer uses of our LOPI. I feel much safer with a "local" and trusted certified fireplace inspector that is also ethical!

I recently hired FG Pavers for a major project involving a complete storm drainage system, a new…read moreretaining wall, and paver installation. Overall, I am very satisfied with the transformation of my outdoor space. From the start, Hugo was fantastic. He helped me navigate the design phase, offering creative solutions and solid ideas that I hadn't even considered. During construction, Nick was incredibly accommodating. Even though it was clear he had a very busy schedule, he made a point to visit the site daily and was always available to answer my calls, which I really appreciated. The crew themselves were hard workers and clearly skilled in their trade. That said, with a project of this scale, I found that being a highly involved homeowner was necessary. There were a couple of instances where I had to step in to point out issues that might have otherwise gone unnoticed. To their credit, FG Pavers corrected these items immediately once they were raised. I'd recommend them for their craftsmanship and their willingness to make things right.

Project: Installing Porcelain/Saltillo-style matte patio with inlays and a paver walkway…read moreSummary: I'd hire FG Pavers and Turf again at the drop of a hat, no questions asked. Bid/Quote: They came, inspected the project site and gave a complete quote including the construction detail. Tiles in an outdoor patio is uncommon, so we had a lot of questions from the grading to rebar to water proofing to sealent to grout. FG answered all the questions and accommodated our requests to align with the tile vendor recommendations. Price competitiveness: We spoke with 4 paver companies. 1 didn't want to do Porcelain tiles+ Paver, 1 didn't meet our budget, job was too small for one. Project Management: regular site visits by the site lead. Eduardo is a gem. They helped us pick the right material, picked up the tiles, did the dry layout and kept us updated on the schedule Work site: Saul and his team were punctual, spotless at the end of workday and walked through every step of the process. They made sure we reviewed the progress and that we approved the changes. We had a couple of last minute changes. Eduardo/Saul accommodated that. Saul is awesome to work with Quality of work: Wife can't stop beaming. I am going to be cashing that check for a while

We've been through the whole process of getting quotes and browsing through Yelp for contractors and I can definitely say that the next time we have a landscaping project come up, we're going straight to Jeff. We received 5 estimates for our backyard - from companies large and small - and Jeff was the only one who actually listened to what we wanted and then gave thoughtful suggestions based on his expertise and actually had a vision for the space. Nearly every other company asked what we wanted but never asked any follow up questions or showed any interest in providing an expert opinion. That would be fine if I was a landscape architect and a botanist but... I'm not!! Jeff is extremely valuable not only for the high quality work that he and his team does, but for the knowledge and expertise that he brings to the table, and the fact that he actually CARES. Early on in the estimate process I mentioned to Jeff that we recently had a baby and that part of my motivation for updating our backyard was to make the space more functional as a fun play space for our son as he grows up. Jeff constantly tweaked the design and approach to accommodate this ultimate goal for the space. He purposefully laid out the plants and trees so that our son could run through the landscape once it grows in (which is tricky because the hillside is steep), he brought in extra boulders to give him something to climb up on and jump off of, and consciously steered us away from any poisonous or dangerous plants. Now, with the design that Jeff laid out, we are so so excited to see our son enjoy the backyard for years to come!! I should also mention that I have strong opinions when it comes to the design and layout of our home which made Jeff's approach even more impressive. Jeff seamlessly blended his professional opinion with my particular ideas and desires which made for a really enjoyable and collaborative experience; and ultimately a final product that we are VERY happy with! I don't usually write Yelp reviews (ever really) but our experience with Jeff was so positive that I felt compelled to write one here. That should say it all!

Josue and his team provided a very thoughtful plan with every detail in the contract, and swiftly finished the whole project in less than 2 weeks. The whole job includes quite some digging to implement 2 underground water pipe systems that navigate all the way to 30ft away from the house, plus additional gutter downspout installation. Besides, Josue assured 100% customer satisfaction: he is super active during the whole process, almost visiting the site himself everyday, and answered every single of my question( I asked a lot of questions based on my research and he was so patient to take care of them). Moreover, I insisted the plan to be changed in the middle of the work because I discovered other potential concerns with this old house, but Josue did not hesitate to change the plan per my ask and even voluntarily lowered the agreed price due to less work performed in the new plan. I would definitely work with he and his team again!
