Bert did an amazing job earlier this year sealing all the cracks in our 50+ year old brick front…read moreporch. Before we worked with Bert, this was a huge issue every time it rained, as water would sleep through the cracks into the crawlspace below. Other contractors wanted us to redo the entire porch, but Bert suggested a more conservative option of redoing only the really bad areas and touching up the rest. He and his crew were super careful to make sure dust didn't get into the house, covering all the windows and porch with plastic before they got to work. Bert also fixed another part of our brick pathway that was sunk lower than the ground level and made it look good as new. During the last few rains, we haven't seen any water seeping below and the porch looks much better aesthetically as well. Bert was great to work with, highly recommend him and his company!!

Absolutely 5 stars!…read more Bert helped us with a huge brick wall in our 1928 home. He was patient, helpful, and responsive even before starting the job. He's just an all around nice guy and easy to work with. He gave great advice as well about what to do. He showed up each day on time - early, actually - and did a fantastic job, too. The work itself was done to a high standard and you can tell he is a true craftsman. Highly recommend!

D Garcia Landscaping completed a large fence project for us and we are extremely happy with the…read moreresults! This was a technically challenging project involving a steep hill and very mature redwood roots. Standout qualities of this company are: 1. Ease of quoting process Before coming out in person, they were able to give us a ballpark price based on dimensions, fence type, and site images. This allowed me to decide whether to move forward and I thought this was really respectful of my time. Then, Dago, the owner, came for the site visit and to discuss details. 2. No bait and switch In ironing out the details, there was some miscommunication about whether staining was included. Dago was able to meet us halfway with the price increase. This honest business style continued throughout the project and no change orders or unexpected price increases happened. 3. Detail oriented Throughout the project, we discussed details such as fence posts placement relative to tree roots, post height, etc. Dago was both available in person and by email via his assistant Maria. It was also nice to have responses confirmed in writing so that things were clear and there would be no bait and switch. 4. Personality Dago is a really nice person and I enjoy speaking with his about his geriatric dogs, etc. This also helped me not feel anxious about the project, because I felt that I could trust him. For this fence, we received multiple quotes. Two companies were in the $9-10K range, another was around $12K, and an outlier was above $20K. Dago's price was the lowest quote (with minute differences in material) and we are very glad we went with him!

Dago and his team are amazing! They have been maintaining our yards in El Sobrante for a few years…read moreand always to a wonderful job. They are friendly, and always go above and beyond. Recently, we had them to a full conversion/remodel of our backyard from awful weeds to nice natural grass, with an irrigation system, mulch, and tasteful plants. I was amazed with both how well it came out, and how affordable the project was! I would HIGHLY recommend using Dago Garcia's team for either regular yard maintenance, or any yard project you have in mind. Dago has decades of experience and knows exactly what he is doing- he is super friendly and helped us with great ideas. Give Dago a call!

I had a super great experience with Sio and his team to repave a part of my driveway that has…read moresunken and to make the edge of the driveway look nice and neat. Sio was responsive and flexible from the get go. Price was very competitive and one of the lowest I can find. He had great/quick communication which for jobs like these is like 25% of the battle. There is nothing worse than dealing with contractors that randomly ghosts you! You won't have to worry about that with Sio and his team. They were early every day of the job, and they were patient and always explained things to me thoroughly. I was really happy with the job and my neighbors all had good things to say about their work! I would call them up again if I ever need help again!

Despite us living in the south bay the workers were here every morning, worked a full day and communicated what would be happening the next day.

He's extremely easy to work with--open to ideas, collaborative, and focused on making sure everything is done right. He proactively troubleshot a few minor issues I hadn't anticipated during the paver installation and absolutely nailed the final outcome. The pavers were installed properly with correct base and layering for a drive-rated surface. He also completely re-landscaped our front yard, added rock where needed, and built a retaining wall--all executed with care and precision. On top of the quality of work, his pricing was very fair and transparent for the craftsmanship and effort involved. Erik is licensed, dependable, and clearly takes pride in doing landscape work the right way. He genuinely made our house look new again. We plan to use him for our yearly cleanups as well. Such a pleasure to work with--I highly recommend Erik and his team.

It took about 3 days total for the demo work. They put in pavers, planted pet friendly bushes and laid down artificial grass. They replaced the mulch with rocks. Erick and his crew were very respectful, detailed and worked hard. Erick communicated each day making sure I was happy or if I had any concerns or questions. He listened and came up with suggestions to address my concerns. The company takes pride in their work. I highly recommend this company to do maintenance OR do a yard re-do. You won't be disappointed!!

I needed additional concrete parking at my house. Nick and his company, Dimension came through…read morewith fantastic work. The job was pretty straightforward but the land did have a slight slope to it. Dimension gave me great recommendations from their experience on number of piles, retaining wall, parking curbs, and even incorporated a pipe running under the concrete for future electrical system and irrigation that I requested. I would hire them again for any concrete work or anything else that they are willing to do. Their communication through the whole process was excellent, which is something that I value very highly.

Dimension built the large retaining walls (main wall: 11 to 12 feet tall x 120 feet wide; planter…read morewall: 4 feet tall x 100 feet wide) and drainage systems as part of our landscape project on a steep slope. Before getting introduced to Dimension, I reached out to some other concrete contractors in the Bay Area; many of them didn't even respond perhaps because of the complexity in the job while others responded with quotes that were not backed up by enough details. Dimension's quote came in with a good level of detail with very reasonable price; in addition, it had all the paper work required by the city, from workers' compensation to liability insurance. When the actual work got started, we were really pleased to see good signs of a great construction company. The crews knew how to read plans, were highly skilled and they were really hardworking (to the point that we were worried they didn't take enough breaks!). Since there was quite a bit of demolition, the crew cleaned up our driveway every day before they left. Nick, the owner, was very organized, along with great support from the office manager Daniela. Nick checked in and communicated with us on a daily basis, and was very patience in listening and responding to our questions. He got all the equipment and materials in order and he was very experienced in dealing with field engineers and city inspectors. As with any large projects, we also had "surprises" that were not covered by the plans and had to make changes accordingly. Each time when a surprise popped up, Nick put our project's interest first and tried to make flexible accommodations, even though it meant he would make a bit less money out of such changes. His homeowner-first approach was in stark contrast with dishonest contractors who low-balled their quotes just to get into projects and then take advantage of the change orders to make money. Many thanks to Dimension, we couldn't be happier with the new walls and drainage systems. In so many ways, we were lucky to get to know Dimension through their excellence. And when neighbors asked for referrals, we had no hesitation in recommending Dimension.

Delmar and his team did an excellent job and gave our front yard and back yard a complete makeover…read more It had taken me a long while to find a contractor who understood my vision for the remodel. From the initial consultation to recommendations on improving aesthetics and water drainage it was immediately obvious that Delmar and his team knew what they were doing and earned my trust right away. Their pricing is transparent, and as the project was underway, I made some changes - Delmar accommodated them graciously and worked with me on the pricing - very transparent and reasonable. Our project included pavers, seating wall, retaining wall, steps (front door, and on retaining wall) - all with LED lights, new deck with Transcend Lineage, putting green, artificial turf and walkways. And the best part was Delmar used ChatGPT to generate new ideas for the landscape! Delmar and his team are very passionate about their work and it shows in the discipline and efficiency with which they executed the project. Never once did I worry about the quality of the materials used or how the work was being done - it was a completely hassle-free experience. I highly recommend Delmar and his crew for any landscape projects.

The water bills and the expansive soils were making it hard to sustain. So Delmar and his crew ripped everything out, put in a completely new drainage system, and topped it off with pavers over the entire yard. We had him put in a different style of border that looks fabulous. He had an electrician, a fence guy and an HVAC guy who took care of all the little details that needed to be done for a complete backyard redo. We added a seat wall for which he referred us to a travertine warehouse, he came with us to select the stones and built a fantastic seat wall. He added LED lights below the seats and below the steps leading to our front door, both of which look gorgeous at night. After he saw the beauty of the existing trees, he decided to put up-lights which just changed the way the trees look at night. He and his workers are so hard working, dedicated, respectful and pay attention to the smallest detail. Change orders were only for extra work initiated by us and their prices were fair - no surprises. Several neighbors have come by to visit and see the yard and there will likely be some who are going to fix their yards too. All in all a fantastic experience working with Delmar, Moa, Benny and their crew.
