I needed a new lawn and got my standard five bids for the job. Michael stood out for all of his…read moreinitial input on the options and then for the details of his bid. He was the only one who detailed every item involved in the bid, including update of irrigation. I've had issues in the past with bids for other projects that I assumed included the little details but didn't and then I had to pay extra. Michael's bid included every detail in writing that you would assume would be a part of a new lawn job and it was very reasonable. He also showed up on time for the initial appointment! His crew was great! Their work was very detailed and clean. The job was done within three days and all of the work area, including the driveway, was cleaned up. They even noted my falling-apart fence gate so Michael gave me a very reasonable quote and they did a great job fixing it for me. There were a lot of details for after-care and I've texted Michael multiple times to confirm. He texts back quickly and I never get the impression he's annoyed (I've sent a lot of texts!). I almost wish I had more yard renovations so that I could hire him again! I did discuss a whole-yard mulch job and will absolutely hire Michael when I'm ready for that. No more getting multiple bids for future yard renovations. I'll just call Michael.

Michael and his team at Pacific Landscaping and Maintenance did an outstanding job transforming our…read moreproperty. Our extensive project included driveway removal and replacement, patio reconstruction, construction of steps down to our pool, comprehensive planting with irrigation and lighting, and installation of multiple fences/gates. We took our time evaluating contractors and obtaining multiple bids before selecting Michael. He offered the best combination of price and expertise by a significant margin. During our initial consultation, Michael provided excellent cost-saving suggestions that we ultimately implemented, helping us stay within budget without sacrificing quality. Throughout the project, Michael was exceptionally easy to work with. He was highly responsive and accommodated mid-project design changes without hesitation. His installation team exceeded our expectations--they were professional, friendly, and hardworking. They maintained a clean worksite at the end of each day and were consistently respectful of our property and our need to access it during construction. If you're planning a landscaping project, I highly recommend Pacific Landscaping and Maintenance. We couldn't be more pleased with the quality of their work and the professionalism they demonstrated from start to finish.

I am so thankful for the entire team: Ryan, Anthony, Luis, Steve, Obemar, and Santiago--they were all amazing! Ryan had great ideas and worked with me to bring our vision to life while staying closer to our budget. He was always quick to respond and supported me even when I needed to make changes along the way. Anthony was always available to answer my questions and great at troubleshooting in a timely manner--even coming by after the project was completed to help with an issue in our patio caused by a different company. He also returned again to help adjust the irrigation schedule, which I truly appreciated! Luis is the kind of person you want on your project every day--kind (the nicest person), hardworking, and incredibly detail-oriented. Thanks to him, my fence turned out beautifully. I'm also grateful for Steve, who helped me visualize everything on paper so I could feel at ease before we started. His plant choices and placement were spot-on, and I really appreciated the extra effort he put in! Obemar and Santiago worked tirelessly under the hot sun, and thanks to their dedication, the project was completed on time. They were so kind as well--we even received a bag full of lemons one day! This review is a little long, but they all deserve a shoutout. I honestly feel like I got more than I was expecting, and I couldn't be happier with the results.

Ryan, the owner, was great from start to finish, Anthony did a fantastic job as our project manager, and the foreman and crew were hardworking and detail-oriented. They went above and beyond the original scope, helping problem‑solve both the irrigation system so it could reach an extra flower bed and improving the drainage to make sure everything would work properly. The project was finished on time and within budget, and we're very happy with the results. We would definitely recommend Green Dreams!

After I contacted the owner and spoke with Sharon, they took full responsibility and redid the entire fence from the ground up. The new build is exactly what we were hoping for: high-quality materials, solid craftsmanship, and a beautiful finished product that really elevates our property. Custom work doesn't always go perfectly the first time, but what matters is how a company responds--and they absolutely stood behind their work and made it right. That level of integrity and follow-through is hard to find. I would confidently recommend them based on the final result and their commitment to customer satisfaction.

BIG shout out to Sunny Builders Group!!!They are amaaaazing!!!…read more We had 40+ overgrown "hedges" that became more like small trees over the years and were intertwined with old metal fencing. I've wanted to get a new fence for so long, but I was afraid it would be too expensive since the hedges would have to be removed first. I spent 2 weeks getting quotes from various types of businesses that could get the job done... and then I found Sunny Builders Group! With many areas of expertise, they proved to be a one-stop-shop that did all the things I had received individual quotes for: Remove the hedges, grind the stumps, demo the old fence, haul it all away, install a new vinyl fence, DG pathway... and to my surprise, they could even replace my broken granite countertop ! They took care of all the behind the scenes planning and coordination, and we stayed under budget! What a blessing! My experience with them has been fantastic, starting with my very first call to Rachel, she's so helpful and put my mind at ease! The crew was on time, ahead of schedule, and worked together like a well-oiled machine, so quick and efficient! Sunny is an absolute delight to work with! Throughout the whole process, I always felt like he's had my best interest in mind and wasn't just out to make a buck. He's a fair and honest man, and is very generous in sharing discounts and money-saving tips. Even with so much to juggle, he handled it all with such grace and professionalism, and was excellent at communicating every step of the way! Sunny Builders Group exceeded my expectations...and then some!!! I'll be a customer for life and look forward to working with them again on future projects. Thank you Sunny Builders Group, I am forever grateful!!!

I hired John Kensla from Infinity Sky Landscaping to overhaul my backyard, which was a disjointed…read moremix of artificial turf patches, random grass areas, and a retaining wall with no coherent theme. John guided us through a clear three-phase process: 1. First, he did a thorough site assessment and gathered our input. 2. Then he presented three design options and iterated based on our feedback and budget constraints. 3. Finally, he delivered a detailed digital plan that included a full plant list and phased implementation. John was straightforward and professional throughout, open to multiple rounds of feedback, and helped us choose plants suited for our area. He also connected us with reliable contractors and even showed up on-site to ensure the work matched his design. In short, he delivered exactly what was promised: a cohesive backyard design with a professional approach.

Dream‑backyard design with a pro who truly listens…read more After a disappointing "free consult" elsewhere (they didn't listen and handed us a generic, cookie‑cutter layout), we reached out to John at Infinite Sky Landscape Design--and the difference was night and day. From the first message, John was easy to work with and extremely responsive, and the whole experience felt collaborative. What stood out most was how well he listened. John took the time to understand our vision and made sure our ideas were incorporated into the design. His three‑step process was a game changer--it clearly set expectations for each meeting and kept everything efficient and stress‑free. The final design? We absolutely love it! It reflects our style and feels unique to our space. We can't wait to make it a reality and create our dream backyard. If you want a designer who values your input and delivers something truly special, John and Infinite Sky Landscape Design are the way to go.

As issues came up (permit delays, grumpy neighbor, too tall chair ordered on my part), they helped us navigate it all and offered support even when they didn't need to The subcontractors they used to dig, build a large retaining wall, install turf, build the patio, install the pergola, and lay lots and lots of rocks were wonderful--nice, patient, and hard-working. The whole team even took an old playhouse and redesigned it safely for our kids on the hill. Matt's design, attention to detail, and the time he took with our project was above and beyond. He answered every call and text quickly. I couldn't have asked for more. I've already recommended SD3D to all of my neighbors, and recommend them for small or large projects.

Our recent bathroom remodel was completed with an impressive level of craftsmanship,…read moreprofessionalism, and care. From the very first day of demolition to the final finishing touches, the construction crew demonstrated exceptional skill and dedication. They are clearly hard workers who take pride in what they do, and it shows in every detail of the finished space. One of the standout qualities of the team was their respect for the surrounding areas of the home. They protected floors, walls, and adjacent rooms diligently, ensuring that dust, debris, and potential damage were kept to an absolute minimum. Their attention to cleanliness and protection made the entire process far more comfortable and stress‑free.The crew members who handled the demolition, construction, and finishing deserve special recognition. Their teamwork, craftsmanship, and positive attitude made the project not only successful but enjoyable. It's rare to see a group that works this hard while still clearly enjoying the work itself. There was one minor design detail that was overlooked early in the planning phase and only became apparent once assembly was underway. Fortunately, it did not significantly affect the final result. One of the crew members quickly suggested a simple hardware addition that resolved the issue cleanly and effectively. This kind of practical, on‑the‑spot problem‑solving is exactly why the project remained on track and the final outcome looks as good as it does. For future projects, incorporating periodic design reviews during construction could help catch small details like this even earlier. It's a simple step that could make an already excellent process even smoother. Would we use this contractor again? Absolutely. The quality of the work, the professionalism of the crew, and the overall experience make them an easy choice for any future remodel.
