If you are acting as your own general contractor, you cannot do better for yourself than hiring…read moreLovaz Excavating for your project and having Leo Lopez provide you his expertise. This was my first time doing a project of this size for myself. I wanted a 30'x50' metal RV garage built on a concrete slab with an 80' asphalt driveway on my 5 acre property. I contracted for surveying, engineering, geotechnical support, and worked with the county for all permitting. After selecting my metal building contractor, I called Leo's company for an estimate after seeing the many positive reviews he had on Google and Yelp. In the excavating, concrete, and asphalt areas, I had a difficult time finding single contractors that did all three areas. Besides Leo's estimate, I was able to obtain one other. Other contractors would say they worked in all three areas but upon visiting my site, they would say they just did one area but had contacts that could provide estimates in the other areas. Leo's site visit and subsequent interactions put me completely at ease. He had done his homework, deep diving the plans I had sent him. His estimate was in the ballpark of the other and he provided pictures of his other jobs that proved that he had more than enough expertise to complete my project. Over the course of my project, I came to rely upon Leo to help me overcome obstacle after obstacle due to my inexperience working across the trades and with the county. In one example, we had a conference call to talk to the engineer to determine how best to build up the ground to make it level for the slab with a mostly level driveway that would drain properly, and T'd from the original driveway. In another example, I did not find the building permit on the county's electronic system until after the concrete slab had been poured. The first geotechnical report had made "suggestions" that the county made "mandatory" in the building permit, one of which was having a geotechnical expert write an assessment after the forms were constructed and before concrete was poured. I was able to have the geotechnical engineer visit the site and inspect after the fact. Leo made himself available to answer questions and he had pictures of the rebar and forms. A positive report was developed that satisfied the county. Leo told me that he likes jobs that are my size and up to 12 homes at a time so he can be responsive to his commitments. For me, he was on site when he said he would be. The size of his crew was always right for the job at hand and no one was ever not fully engaged. If you have a major self-funded project and are looking for someone you can trust on your team, look no farther than Leo Lopez and Lovaz Excavating LLC.

We had an excellent experience with Lifetime Chimney. We…read morehave a chimney that we never use that needed to have a cap put on. Another company said they would only rebuild the entire fireplace and chimney. We never intend to use the fireplace and just needed to protect it from weather and creatures getting in. (We couldn't afford a complete rebuild in any case.) Lifetime Chimney saved us! They completed some repairing so they could install a cover/ cap, and they pressure washed the chimney. Miguel did an excellent job and was very kind. When I first called in, I spoke with Brian who was incredibly helpful! I was worried when I called in, but Brian explained what they needed to do. He patiently gave me clear information. The chimney looks great and it makes the house look great. We're relieved to have it protected now. I would hire this company again!

We had one done at our other house that cost over $500 a few years ago. Lifetime Chimney is my personal go-to from now on and the place I recommend!

Fortunately, we met Ivan at Chable's Concrete who was an absolute delight to work with. He showed up on time for our appointment, offered us several great solutions for our challenging backyard (which is narrow, and slightly sloped), and promptly sent an estimate. He understood our plan that seemed puzzling to other companies. When we made changes, it was no problem. Ivan came by the next day to measure, finalize the design, and answer any other questions we had. He scheduled our installation the following week. Day one of our project, Ivan and Rodger excavated, leveled the site, and laid the forms. Day two, he poured cement and created a beautiful custom patio design. Ivan and Jenni were so communicative and personable. They made this project effortless. Their pricing was fair and reasonable. And what we agreed to is what we paid. We are asking them back for future projects. It is so refreshing to find genuinely friendly, ethical, drama-free companies who do beautiful, precise work and respect their customers' time. Ivan is a creative problem-solver. Do not hesitate to give him a call.

We first got in contact with Vai and then met with his brother Ofa at our house to show the area and talk about how it could be done. Ofa had some great ideas and while discussing it also brought up replacing our rotting wood/dirt stairs. After thinking about it we went for it and he and his crew knocked it out in a week and were able to finish with exposed aggregate that matched the existing deck area and walkways. It turned out amazing, we are very happy with it and the entire crew was easy to work with. They were able to quickly address any changes or problems as they came up.

Naturally, I was filled with worry over all the things that could go wrong. I was determined to watch them carefully and make sure that they were not going to damage anything, like my floors, my patio, my skylights, etc. In a very short time I could tell that they were absolutely meticulous, not dropping the bricks but carrying them from the roof to the bin. Inside the house, they were just as careful, protecting the floors, etc. When they were done, they carefully cleaned everything. Then I decided they were the ones I wanted to rip out all the old cupboards and shelves from the garage. They fitted that small job in immediately and did just as good of a job. Then I learned that they do small construction jobs and I hired them to install a vinyl pre-fab garden shed. They showed up with all the materials and put down sand, gravel and a paver pad, leveled it, and put up the shed in a day. I have hired dozens on workers and construction crews over the years and when I find a good one, I like to let people know.
