The first project was a new fence and motorized gate about 5 years ago (it looks just as amazing now as it did the day they completed it)- from start to finish, the TH team was very knowledeable, gave us many options, were always prompt in both showing up when they said they would, and returning inquiries and other phone calls. Their workspace was always clean and thoughtful for our pets and family to traverse to and from the house while they worked on the project. And most importantly, the finished gate and fences were clean, high quality and polished... and better than we imagined! Our second project we just finished this past month was our deck (and roofing as our garage sits underneath our deck). They replaced our leaky wooden deck with new beams, proofing/coating, tiles this time (the whole nine) and it is perfect- complete with polished iron, a side gate to match our existing gates/aesthetic and touch ups where needed. Tal was very transpararent from the beginning and made us aware of the pros and cons for every material and promptly finished the whole project within two weeks. He went above and beyond-communicated every step of the way. We trust them with any home project and would hire him and his team again in a heartbeat.

The project was completed quickly and at the quoted price. Although this was not the lowest quote we received, Dmitrii's honesty during the consultation phase helped earn our trust. (He accurately flagged that one idea we had in mind for our project--adding stucco over existing cinderblocks--should first be evaluated by a masonry expert. He was right: we consulted a masonry expert who confirmed that the stucco would not have lasted long on that surface, and it would've been a waste of money. Other fence companies were willing to do the stucco work and didn't alert us to the need for a masonry expert.) We will be coming back to HandyMaestro for our future fence projects.

If you are browsing Yelp right now to look for a landscaper, you can stop your search since Flores Artscape is incredible. I was looking to redo my backyard since it was a little outdated and my old deck was starting to fall apart. Not only did Flores call me back right away, but they also quickly scheduled a consultation appointment and did a thorough walkthrough to show me their recommendations and ideas. I went with everything they suggested and I couldn't be happier. The finished product (new pavers, turf, plants, lighting, etc.) looks amazing. It feels like I have a high-end yard that matches my recently remodeled house. And the best part: their pricing is very competitive! I didn't pay an exorbitant amount and still feel like my new backyard looks expensive. Flores finished the job in only a couple weeks and the work team was at my house every day. I am so, so happy with the results and can't wait until they can come back and redo my front yard next. Hire this company immediately if you're looking for a landscape job. You will be very pleased.

I reached out to Flores Artscape on yelp and received a call back almost immediately and was able to schedule an estimate/consultation for the next day. Jason swung by at the agreed upon time (he even texted me his ETA) and as we walked through the job site, he listened to me describe my vision and immediately understood the look I was going for. He offered suggestions without being pushy and helped me visualize the potential of my project. Jason provided his estimate the following day as promised. He was proactive in looking for ways we could descope my project to fit within my budget. He made himself available to discuss modifications over the phone, and responded to my texts and emails promptly. I ultimately went an different direction with my hardscaping, but would consider Flores Artscape for any future full-service landscaping company in a heartbeat. I highly recommend them!

They were very personable. They first asked what was going on with the gate on the phone and then sent someone out the very next day to come take a look at it in person. They did a thorough inspection and figured out that our gate needed a new chain, wheels and maintenance. Which I'm not surprised about because we haven't replaced those items in years. They scheduled us in and fixed everything in a efficient and timely manner. So glad my gate is fixed and Alex assured me if I had any questions to just call and that they also provide a lwarranty for the parts that were replaced. So glad I came across Pristine Garage and Gate. This is a trustworthy business and I look forward to using them if I ever have any other issues with my gate or garage.

I hired ForgeWays Inc to design and install a custom steel gate and railing system for my home in Porter Ranch. From the first consultation, Frank and his team were professional, responsive, and easy to work with. They listened to what I wanted, offered helpful design suggestions, chose durable materials with a finish that matched my space, and kept me updated throughout the process. The quality of the finished product is outstanding--solid craftsmanship, clean welds, and a beautiful finish that really elevates the look of my property. You can tell they take pride in their work. I've already had neighbors ask who did the install! For the level of service and attention to detail, the value was excellent. I've recommended them to friends and neighbors, and I'll definitely be using them again for future projects. If you're in the Porter Ranch or greater Los Angeles area and need custom wrought iron or steel fabrication, ForgeWays is the team to call. Thanks again, Frank! read more

It took me years to find someone who could imagine the kind of railing design I needed for my 1926 uneven unique wall.

From the…read morefirst on-site consultation they impressed us with thoughtful design suggestions--matching the gentle curve of the street, integrating warm hardwood caps, and spacing the balusters so the planting beds still breathe. Their craftsmanship is flawless: every weld is clean, the powder-coat is even, and the wood inlays sit perfectly flush with the metal frame. Sam's father personally checked each panel for plumb and level, and the team worked long days to finish ahead of schedule without cutting corners. They left the site spotless, even hauling away the old fencing and sweeping the driveway. Beyond the technical excellence, communication was a breeze. Sam texted progress photos, confirmed small details (hinge style, post-top finials) before committing, and honored the original quote to the penny. If you want ironwork that's equal parts art and engineering--delivered by people who treat your project like their own home--hire Exotic Iron Works. The results are stunning, and the experience is just as impressive.

About a week later they returned for a test fit, and everything lined up perfectly. The following week they brought it back powder coated, and I couldn't have been happier. The workmanship was outstanding--beautiful finish, clean welds, and it looked like it had always belonged there. Just as important, Kevin and Hamlet are genuinely nice people.
