    Jose has been one of the best contractors I've dealt with during our renovation . He was friendly, responsive and professional. He was one of the few who actually came out and gave me an estimate and discussed different ideas vs others who asked me to measure and send them dimensions via email. His bid was also the most reasonable and it included the entire porch which looks AMAZING. I would definitely recommend Jose and his guys again and will be using him when we are ready to replace our back.

    New turf and pavers

    Jose & his team completely transformed our backyard with a full renovation. It was a 5 week job and Jose was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the project. In fact, I can't even imagine another contractor even coming close to his quality of work and attention to detail. We brought Jose plans from a landscape architect and he made some on-site recommendations to improve them, and he kept us informed during the entire time. Each day he would send a text update with what work was accomplished and what was scheduled for the next day. His team cleaned up each day and they clearly enjoy working with one another, and for Jose. His attention to detail and pride in his work is what sets Jose and Diamond Pavers apart from other contractors. He didn't rest until the job was done till not only our satisfaction, but his own very high standard. We had Jose install about 500 sq ft of pavers, artificial turf, build two redwood planter boxes, trellises, install drainage and irrigation, and install a full bluetooth-controlled lighting package. He excavated down about 10" and brought in the correct base layers. He thought of small details we (nor the plans) could foresee and asked for our input throughout. We made several changes along the way and Jose was easily accommodating of them. When we had small minor issues come up after the project was complete (such as irrigation drips, lighting adjustments, etc.) Jose was promptly here with a smile on his face. Our family cannot speak more highly of Jose and he is my first recommendation when friends and family ask. We get so many compliments on our new yard and it has been transformed into a space my family uses everyday. We would absolutely without hesitation work with him for future landscaping projects. I interviewed four paver contractors and am very attentive to detail myself. I'm am so glad I hired Jose! (before and after photos included for reference)

    I'm not the person who usually write the review or using Yelp, but I truly satisfied my driveway pavement project that Jose & his crew amazingly done. I got more than 5 estimates and research reviews this time cuz I got scammed last time by unlicensed contractor. Then I found the Diamond Paver from BBB.org. 13yrs of business, good reviews, certified license and no complaints on BBB. Also, Jose offered me affordable price and good quality of paver. (It was almost 10K less than the other very famous & huge company that every project manager were different) He planed & advised the big picture than just his job(like planning associated issues - fixed the downspout & sprinkler) and what I need to plan for the street concrete project from city. Jose was the one who told me every steps what they're doing and asked what I want. He always told me what was the best option for cost effective & fulfillment of aesthetic desire. Especially, I had a giant tree on the side of the driveway, so when they removed the ugly cracked concrete, there were lots of roots all over the ground. They removed all the roots and made the base step by step as they stick to the basics. All crew was very professional and responsible. Their works were always neat and awesome. Jose looks like a good owner also who take care of his team and he usually stayed the site to take care of the rest the stuff. They finally finished the job and all my family (and my neighbor:) are so happy to enjoy the nice paver everyday we step. He gave me the 10yrs of warranty also and I believe he'll come and take care of it if there is an any issue. Thank you Jose & teams!

    This was our second project with Diamond Pavers -- Jose and his crew knocked it out of the park with this transformation. We wanted to be able to spend more time in our backyard; we had was peaceful, but not very inviting space -- lots of flower garden area, lots of dirt, and a huge amount of decaying woodchips and leaves. I proposed a simple plan -- half pavers and half turf with a sitting wall, using a herringbone pattern. Jose made recommendations on materials and overall design to make the space more appealing -- like curving the paver/turf border. The project spanned 7 days (estimated as 8). The crew of 4 showed up promptly at 7:30 every morning until 3pm -- Jose (the owner/lead) was here most of the time to make sure work was being done right and went above and beyond to help fix and reroute some irrigation. They cleaned up the site before leaving, and the neighbors commented on how respectful they were with not making too much noise or making a mess. 2 of the 3 guys on his crew had worked on my previous project seven years ago, which speaks volumes to how Jose is running a good operation and treats his team well. I highly recommend Diamond Pavers for your paving and ancillary needs (turf, retaining walls, platform decks).

    My front patio

    In 2014 I met Mr. Jose Argueta and he did a nice front step entry, front patio and driveway in pavers. I was really impressed with his men who are very skilled in what they do. They don't rush, they take time to do it right. It was towards Thanksgiving day but they faithfully came during the time of holidays. I love the lights at my front steps and patio. The design is very artistic. They use quality materials. Until now four years passed, my driveway and patio still standing strong, still firm and stronger than cement. I am so happy I decided on permeable pavers than cemented driveway. It was worth spending for it. I won't do it any other way. When I decided to do turf, I thought about Mr. Argueta and closed another deal with him. Mr Argueta is very punctual on his appointments. He tells you exactly how it is done and takes pictures during the process and sends them to you while his men are working. He comes everyday to supervise the work. He is also very nice to his workers. His workers went out of their way to move the soil in preparation of the turf to my backyard just because I asked them. They did not mind doing extra work. I like my turf. It puts a smile on my face when I arrive home. My younger son said "Mommy, it looks like a golf course". I don't need to water grass anymore, saves me time and water. All I need to do is sweep with a broom. It is always green. Lol. When I am ready to do my backyard, I will for sure hire Mr. Argueta. His company always impresses me. Thank you Mr. Argueta!

    Jose and his team did a great job and even built a new door as part of the project. Multi-talented. The work was done well and timely. Diamond Pavers also had a very competitive bid. Would recommend!

    Christopher R.

    We contacted Diamond Pavers a couple weeks ago, with a smallish driveway/path project, and their bid was in line with what we expected. A few other companies refused it because it was too small. They were able to start work surprisingly fast; others gave us dates as far out as November. José and his 2 workers did an amazing job.It was obvious that all 3 had a really good working relationship, and communicated well. They had a large bin for the earth removal delivered to our house, as well as a porta-potty, which really impressed me with their professionalism. Our yard has a grade to it, and they managed to get that pad set perfectly. They put so much work into the curves we had in the design, I even saw them remove pieces and do them again. This was no rush job, and these guys really, really worked. We let them store their equipment in the yard, and they kept it all neat and tidy every day before they left. I have had some awful experiences having people come do work for us in the past. This was the total opposite of that. They took pride in their work and did a beautiful job for us. Thanks José. You guys are the best.

    Jose and crew are nothing short of amazing. I had a 1,000sq ft driveway project in Oakland, and I'm so happy Jose was available to do the job. From the start, he was very professional and easy to reach. He came over and discussed design options and was transparent about pricing and quality of pavers. He set a date to get started and his crew worked efficiently and meticulously. Day 1, they had my ugly old cracked cement driveway demolished, and ready for paver prep. I was happy to see that go! The whole project was completed much faster than I could have expected. Jose found a way to make the driveway custom to my needs, without an increase in cost. The guys showed up on time, and Jose was in and out throughout the day to check on the project. He sent me text message updates if I wasn't home, or walked me through the site if I was home, and kept me informed every step of the way. I've recommended him to a few friends and I will continue to do so. A few months later, and it still looks fantastic. I know it will be beautiful and functional for years to come.

    Narrow driveway, finished.

    Superior workmanship, customer support and follow up. From start to finish Jose Argueta was A+ in responsiveness and ease to deal with. His crew was skilled, efficient. My driveway is very narrow in an older section of Oakland and I wanted to be sure the pipes and gas lines very close to the driveway would be undisturbed. Jose and crew were great in dealing with those and other details. I had 3 bids and this one was the middle though one was much less--this one seemed reasonable for the amount of work and detail. We were delayed by coronavirus lockdown but Jose continued to be in touch as we rescheduled. Work completed in the estimated time. Highest recommendation.

    We called Jose to give us a quote for our backyard. He was very quick to respond, and with a competitive price we went with Diamond Pavers. The job was completed quickly and looks absolutely amazing. Jose and his crew are very friendly and took great care of our property not only during but after the project was completed. We opted to use pavers for our patio and planter box. Then we decided on a synthetic grass for the rest of the yard for our son. We are so happy with the finished product. I would highly recommend Jose.

    BIG thank you to Jose and his crew. They did an excellent job on our driveway and built us 2 new planters. They were always on time, friendly and very professional. We highly recommend them.

    Meg G.

    We had Jose fix our driveway that had existing pavers. There were several places where the driveway sank and the pavers lifted out of place due to shoddy work by the first guy. His crew did a beautiful job repaving it. Then we had Jose come back and work on the backyard. He put in a retaining wall and built 2 planter boxes. Again, beautiful work. We also had some unfinished work that a previous contractor abandoned (artificial lawn). Jose came through for us again. He came on Wednesday to give us a quote. 3 days later the lawn was finished. Just in time for summer. We are so happy. We highly, highly recommend Jose and his company.

    Semi-circle steps at front entrance

    So I had Jose first help me pave the patio in my backyard and around my house just to test out to see how it will look back in 2010. I figured if it didn't come out the way I pictured it, it would stay hidden in the back of the house behind the fence. It ended up turning out really nice with the synthetic turf I later added in my backyard, so I went back and had him do my front entrance and driveway as well. I told Jose to please help me do the front and driveway in the shortest amount of time possible, since I park all my vehicles inside my garage. He worked through the weekend and helped me finish everything within 5 days! Pavers came out really nice. I'm a happy camper. :)

From the very first meeting, Sam was incredibly personable and easygoing, I felt comfortable with him instantly. He was also refreshingly honest about what was feasible for our space and took the time to explain the best way to do the work so it would be done right and remain strong long-term. Communication throughout the entire process was excellent. Sam kept us informed every step of the way, answered all our questions, and made sure we felt confident in the plan. The skill and craftsmanship of the work from him and his team is truly impressive, and we are beyond happy with how our backyard turned out, it completely exceeded our expectations. What really set Sam apart was how well taken care of we felt. He is incredibly trustworthy and honest, and he genuinely cared about the outcome as much as we did. He even offered to come back at a later time to help us move our very heavy Big Green Egg grill back onto the concrete once everything is ready, this is above and beyond! Now that the concrete is finished, we're so excited to make many family memories in our backyard and we have Sam to thank for that. We would without a doubt hire Sam and his team again for any future projects and will absolutely be referring him to friends and family. If you're looking for high quality work and someone you can truly trust, Sam is your guy!

The walls are absolutely stunning--we get comments about how nice they are all the time. Steve is a really nice guy--he is genuine, knowledgeable, honest, and he had an understanding that the work he is doing is a significant financial investment for us and so concerns are handled compassionately, with utmost patience. Steve's crew is full of respectful, considerate individuals who leave the worksite in excellent condition each time (and I have high standards!). Kristin's prompt communication was excellent (as was Steve's) and we were very pleased that with each project, the quote was accurate. When there was dump fees (I think for soil--but not sure--they had to hire trucks), we were informed well ahead of time and told why, and even then, we prepared for the fees, and they came in under budget. We cannot recommend Avon more highly--budget willing, we would use them again and again!

When I began my search for a security door install company, it was quite difficult, because I live in Vallejo, and I didn't see many reputable options. I eventually stumbled upon Den Defenders during my search, and after doing some research on them, and seeing lots of positive reviews, I decided to call, and schedule an appointment with them. For my initial consultation appointment, I was set up with their awesome employee Mike Carson. Mike was the best to work with, as he was a very professional individual, who seemed quite knowledgeable about the products, and services that Den Defenders offered. Mike helped me find the perfect solution for my home, and family's needs, as we needed a door that would allow more airflow into Our home for the hot summers, while keeping out insects, and also being very secure, so that we can sleep without worry of any intruders entering our home. Mike recommended the Viewguard security door, as it appeared to meet all of my family's needs. After Mike educated us on the door, its quality, and its features, We were sold, so we ordered one, and set up an appointment for the install date. When it was install day, My family was very excited, because when we first seen the door, it looked like a very high-quality, and sturdy unit. The install took about a few hours, as my home needed some stucco modification for the door to fit, but the Den Defenders crew had all of the tools/ equipment to get the job done, and they even kept the area clean as they worked, which was a huge relief, and very professional on their part. I'd like to point out that I couldn't be more happier, and satisfied with my purchase, and I would highly recommend this company to anyone in the market for a high-quality security door installation. Before ending my review, I'd like to personally say a big thank you to Mike Carson for setting everything up, and ensuring a very satisfactory experience for me, and my family. I'd also like to thank the rest of the Den Defenders team for doing an exceptional job (I've included a picture in my review of the two crew members who did my install, and they were awesome, and very professional as well!). If I had to sum up my experience in a single phrase to promote the use of this company, I'd say that "The Den Defenders team delivers a quality product, and top-notch customer service." Thank you Den Defenders, on a job well done!
