Manuel came by to give me a quote on refacing my fireplace. He arrived on time, and was able to…read moreexpertly evaluate the situation and explain exactly what he would do to not only build me a new facade, but also protect the integrity of the fireplace. He was honest and thorough, and made a point to show me how I could save on materials, and how he could work with some things I already had on hand. He gave me an incredibly fair proposal with an expedited timeline. Due to some construction issues, I am currently unable to move forward with the project, but he was gracious and kind despite the circumstances. I will absolutely be reaching out to him in the future to get some work done. Thanks Manuel!

After everything we've been through with our previous contractor, working with this hardscape…read morecompany has been an absolute breath of fresh air. From day one, they have made us feel heard, supported, and genuinely cared for. Their communication is second to none--they respond almost immediately, set up a family group chat to keep everyone informed, and are always available to answer questions. The renderings Gabriel creates are absolutely stunning, incredibly lifelike, and they offer unlimited revisions until everything is exactly right. The quality of their planning and attention to detail is exceptional. Tony immediately scheduled a meeting with the city inspector to build a relationship and ensure every aspect of the project is done correctly and up to code from the very beginning, which gave us tremendous confidence. The job site has been immaculate, the professionalism has been outstanding, and it's obvious this family-owned business truly takes pride in their work and their clients. We are still early in the project, but based on our experience so far, they have exceeded every expectation. A true 10 out of 10 experience, and we would highly recommend them. I will post an update with pictures soon

Rivers Landscape is the best landscape and general contractor I have encountered in over 40 years…read more I interviewed 8 contractors and chose Rivers to do a major project at my home. Thank you to Cesar, Gus, Tony, Carlos, Gabriel, and all of the highly skilled workers who made my dream patio come true. One year ago, a terrible storm destroyed my pergola, kitchen counter, and Grill appliances. The Rivers team exceeded all of my expectations and created a masterpiece. They took care of the concept, all design details, the permit process, the coordination of suppliers and equipment, new utilities, and the installation. The work included installing a 30' X 30' Pergola, upgrading the outdoor wall lighting, creating a rose garden, new sod on the lawn, restoring the irrigation system, restoring the landscape lighting, and of course creating a new chef's kitchen. Their design recommendations were always on target and their estimated 6-week schedule from demolition to final clean up was accurate to the day. Everything they did was professional and high quality. We will enjoy our patio and kitchen for years to come and we highly endorse and recommend Rivers Landscape and Construction for any General Contracting. Juan R.

I called Install It Direct to inquire about turf maintenance. I spoke with Jonathan, the…read moreOperations Manager. He explained to me that they only provide this service to clients that they have provided turf for. He then went on to refer me to two landscape companies near my home where we could purchase the infill and the broom to do the maintenance ourselves. He willingly spent about ten minutes helping me, and was so friendly and nice. When we are ready to have more landscape work done, I will definitely be calling Install It Direct.

I am posting this update as a severe safety warning to anyone considering Installing Direct. Since…read moremy initial review, a catastrophic and life-threatening incident has occurred. 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.

His foreman, Pompeyo is excellent at making sure all work is done according to plan. He not only supervises but works right along with his crew. The other five - Marcel, Roki, Niemo, Jose, and Daniel all do excellent work with whatever the day involves: demo, drains, electrical lines in place, grading, paver bed, and then the beautiful pavers. Their supplies are all A+; I like how Ronnie makes suggestions along the way such as brass drains covers. That really made the pavers pop! This is the first time we have ever used pavers. I'm so glad we chose North County Pavers, referred to us by a friend in Carmel Valley. Thanks to all for an awesome job.

First time we used Yelp for a project. It was convenient that there were numerous messages that…read morewere sent out to various tree specialists. Noe Pablo was the most thorough in messaging through the Yelp app, so my husband and I chose him. I had 2 medium-sized fruit trees I needed to transfer from my parent's home in Southeast San Diego to mine in North County. I took pictures and he gave us a very reasonable price. We also decided to also add another service to take out our palm tree. There were a couple of mishaps such as: The day he was scheduled to take out the palm tree, he was a no-show and my husband had to call him an hour after he was supposed to arrive. Then, the day after that incident, was the fruit tree transfer. He and his team forgot to bring their dolly. Thank goodness my Dad had one so they borrowed it, but now we have the burden in taking it back. Despite these mishaps, Noe was very knowledgeable and professional in his mannerisms. The day of the fruit tree transfer, he and his team arrived in a timely manner, was efficient and did a great job overall. We were very pleased and will definitely use him again if we have another project.

Paublo and his team did a great job. We look forward to having them back to plant sone fruit trees.read more

Vindel's Construction did an absolutely amazing job at our home in Scripps Ranch. They demolished…read moreour old concrete and pavers and installed new pavers that turned out beautifully. Berlin's communication was always on point, and he and his team took the time to deliver truly exceptional work at a great price. The attention to detail was impressive, especially when it came to drainage. They went the extra mile by adding two additional drains, including one that I can tie into in the future if needed. They weren't just focused on finishing the job--they thought ahead and really set us up for success long-term. You'll get a great sense of who Berlin is from the moment you meet him. He is clearly an honest, hardworking man and a true gentleman. That character shows in the way he communicates, runs his business, and stands behind his work. I'll be needing more paver and concrete work soon in Valley Center, and I look forward to hiring Berlin and his team again. Berlin is an absolute professional who doesn't miss a step. I highly recommend Vindel's Construction!
