We have had an excellent experience working with this company. This is the third landscaping…read morecompany we have worked with over our 4 years living here in San Mateo and we could not be happier. There are 3 big projects for which we contracted with Zarco Landscaping, because they continually performed above and beyond on the work. The first project was for a room that would flood when it rains. The team at Zarco quickly diagnosed the problem as poor gutter placement and cracks in concrete on the floor above, and they worked rapidly to connect a new sewer system and rebuild our concrete walkway. There has been no more flooding. The second project was to improve the terrain and usability of our backyard, which is on a hill that was very difficult to navigate. The Zarco team completely transformed the area, building stone steps and leveling the land with premium soil, mulch, and stone. Please see the attached photos (we wish we had before pictures, but it was all dirt and invasive plants before on a steep incline)! Lastly, our third project had to be done rapidly after the recent storms in the bay area. We needed three very large and dead trees removed that were at risk of falling on our house or the street. The Zarco team came the next day to remove all of the trees. Overall, the Zarco team has always delivered amazing service and treated us with respect. The prices are also very reasonable and competitive with quotes we received from other businesses. If you live in San Mateo or the Bay Area, we strongly recommend calling Zarco Landscaping for all of your outdoor needs!

He had a vision for grass, mulch, a pebble walkway to our office shed, and some plants around the perimeter. Exactly what we wanted for our budget and needs. He delivered professional results while staying within our budget--truly budget-friendly without cutting corners. Reliable, detail-oriented, and a pleasure to work with. There were a couple of miscommunications along the way, and we were impressed with how quickly and professionally he responded and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. He even spotted some work done by other contractors that needed repairing and did the work. We plan to use Zarco Gardens for our future front yard project. Highly recommend!

David at Ideal Engineering built the surround and installed the capstones for our koi pond, and the…read moreresult is beautiful! I wanted to build a pond that wouldn't break the bank. Initial quotes ranged from $40,000-$50,000 to over $100,000 for a very high-end design and system, and pond builders were booked out until spring 2027. I decided to combine DIY work with professional help: I installed the equipment, all sourced from Play It Koi, hired out the excavation, and used ChatGPT to help develop a design around our available space. David's reasonable pricing helped bring it all together. This was a highly custom project with no set playbook. The design evolved along the way, and David and his team were patient and flexible as we worked through adjustments. Through his contact at Brickyard, we ordered Belgard Belair Wall 2.0 in Victorian. I loved the product but wasn't sure how it would look with our existing pavers--which David also installed 13 years ago. They turned out to be a perfect match! The project required an unusual schedule: after building the surround, the team paused for a few weeks while we installed the pond liner and equipment, then returned to install the capstones. This wasn't the most streamlined process for them, but they were accommodating throughout. David is that rare contractor who truly cares about making sure his clients are happy with the finished result. I'm so happy with how our koi pond turned out and highly recommend David and his team!

A couple of years down the line, we officially signed the contract for a massive remodel with Ideal Landscape and Concrete, and we could not be happier with our decision! From start to finish, David and his entire crew were professional, courteous, and remarkably transparent about project timelines. The quality of materials and the level of craftsmanship were top-tier across the board. What really set this experience apart was David himself. He takes genuine pride in delivering exceptional work--he visited the property regularly to oversee the progress firsthand, and conducted a meticulous walkthrough at the end to make sure everything exceeded our expectations. Our new yard looks incredible. If you're thinking through a landscape remodel involving pavers, turf, or custom concrete work, we cannot recommend David and his team highly enough

The quality of their work and attention to detail was clear each day, from arriving on time to their professionalism, and how fast they were able to do so much I was honestly impressed. I also appreciated how they diligently cleaned up the area every day, no dirt on my neighbor's sidewalk or driveway from my project. RB not only came in overall under budget from 4 bids I received, but also did the work twice as fast as the "big" competitor as well, in total taking 5 days to complete. My neighbors keep giving me compliments as I pass them on the street now, saying how great our yard looks. Will have zero hesitation to engage RB for my future projects.

Over the course of a 1.5 week project, I would hear the crew chatting with each other and it seemed like they enjoy working together too. I reached out to about 10 contractors for quotes and Juan's bid was in the mid-range. From the first walk-through, he was knowledgable and asked questions to help me understand what my options are. Unlike some others, he was never pushy and that made me feel more comfortable about working together going forward. He estimated that the entire project (leveling the backyard, building a short wall, French drain, and adding gravel) would take 2 weeks and they finished ahead of schedule. I am so happy to finally have a usable, outdoor space! If I ever want to do more with the hill, I will use KB Landscape for sure.

He'll make sure to ask questions and clarify things if he's unsure, and he'll look out for things that you won't have thought of, or suggest improvements. All of this was also done at a very fair price, and it was clear the team were doing things properly from getting a level foundation, laying down base rock, and cutting and laying pavers. I would absolutely work with Paverscaping again.
