If you're looking for someone who truly understands wood, Jose from Deck Preservation is the person…read moreto call. I would not trust anyone else with projects like this. Jose brings an incredible amount of expertise, hard work, and enthusiasm to every job. He is very communicative throughout the process and works efficiently while still maintaining a very high standard. It is clear he cares deeply about doing the job right. I hired him for two projects to restore wood that had been badly maintained over the years. From the start, he was upfront about realistic expectations and worked closely with me so the final result would be both beautiful and aligned with my personal taste, even with the challenges from past wear and damage. His process is meticulous. He carefully preps, conditions, and treats the wood so the finish looks great and will last. One of the projects he worked on was restoring our outdoor patio seating, which had been heavily worn down by the elements. It had become rough, uncomfortable to sit on, and even left little splinters. Jose transformed it completely. The wood is now smooth, almost velvet to the touch, and looks beautiful again. He also took the time to tighten loose planks so everything feels solid and well cared for. If you need help restoring decks, outdoor wood furniture, benches, railings, or other exterior wood, Jose is exceptional. I am thrilled with the results and will absolutely work with him again.

He explained every step of the process, used high-quality products, and completed the work right on schedule.

If you're looking for someone who knows exactly what they're doing and delivers outstanding results, I highly recommend Jose for any deck preservation needs. Thank you, Jose!

Gerald, the estimator, was knowledgeable and he recommended replacing the fence with quality posts that had a warranty from rotting in 20 years, wider boards, and a protective stain to ensure the fence would last a long time. This was important to me because it makes it worth the investment to have good quality and have it done right the first time. Not just offering a quick short term repair while trying to reuse the old fence. The crew that came to install the fence did a great job, check out the photo. I would highly recommend them to my neighbors, friends and family for their fence projects in the future.

The finished result looks clean, modern, and is a major upgrade from what was there before. Jose was patient and responsive during the bidding process, so I could refine the scope and materials without pressure. Pricing was competitive, communication was clear, and scheduling was flexible. The work ultimately took longer than initially estimated, but the extra time showed in the thoroughness of the installation and the way unexpected problem areas were handled. Jose stayed communicative and solution-oriented throughout the process. Overall, solid workmanship and a team I would work with again. I'm already considering Complete Siding Solutions for future projects on this older bungalow.

Then one day we noticed a Complete Siding Solutions sign in our neighborhood and heard great feedback from the homeowners. Encouraged by their experience, we emailed Jose to come by, inspect our siding, and give us a quote. From the very first interaction, Jose stood out. He was friendly, courteous, and incredibly professional. His quote was right in line with what we expected, fair and transparent without any of the inflated numbers we had seen elsewhere. The entire process with Jose and his team was flawless. Communication was clear and timely, the work started and finished exactly as promised, and the quality of craftsmanship was outstanding. We chose Hardie Plank siding and couldn't be happier with the result it has completely transformed the look of our home. What impressed us most was Jose's honesty and integrity, which are rare qualities in this industry. After years of frustrating contractor experiences, working with Jose and Complete Siding Solutions was a breath of fresh air. If you are considering new siding, I cannot recommend Jose highly enough honest, friendly, reasonably priced, and delivering top-notch work. You will not be disappointed!

This is an update review now that we have used Octavio and Pacific Premier Landscaping once again…read moreto complete our homes landscaping all around! Octavio and Pacific Premiere Landscaping is STILL incredible! Extremely professional, responsive and just an all around really nice guy! We had a very large project that included our Front, Side, and sloping back yard. My wife and I, like a lot of couples I'm certain, have design paralysis with that "I don't know, what do you want?" going back and forth with each other endlessly. Octavio has a great eye, and countless times he broke our deadlock saying, "How about this? I think this would look really nice" and when we followed his suggestions we ended up being incredibly happy with the result! That's a huge benefit that you can't put value on, because it keeps a project moving forward with minimal stress. Whenever we had questions, he always replied to our texts instantly, and one of the things I really appreciated about his company is that we never had to line up any of our own specialty contractors (electrical, plumbing etc) to do work. He has every discipline covered and coordinates the scheduling of all of that. I've worked with contractors before where they would inform you they didn't do a type of work and we would have to contract that effort separately. Octavio is not like that and he'll coordinate it all according to how you'd like it to look, or be done. Big thumbs up on that! Payment schedules are very clearly explained and documented. Our project included payments in "phases of work" down payment, forms completed, rebar completed, Completed concrete, electrical and irrigation/plants completed, final approval completed etc. and there was flexibility in the schedule if we wished, which made it much easier at one point while we were travelling. He's very open to discussing whatever makes things go smoothly. We loved how he gave us a lot of help particularly with trees/plants (types, locations) Octavio is very knowledgeable in that area and we were very pleased when he met us at the nursery multiple times to show and help us select plants and trees. His work crews were always very friendly, hard working and meticulous, and he checked in on them constantly to make sure everything was going according to plan. It's very obvious that he wants to make sure there are no surprises, and that work is progressing according to schedule and plans. It was a great pleasure having Octavio and Pacific Premiere Landscaping transform our home! We would use him again without question and in fact have several other projects in the immediate future that we're in the process of discussing. A lot of people will search hard for the lowest price (I would estimate that Octavio's prices are not the "cheapest", but they are much more than fair, and I would argue that there is a HUGE difference between "lowest price" and "value"; that being the quality and experience of the work done for the money spent, and with that in mind, Pacific Premiere is a tremendous value! You get a ton for your Money!

Roman was amazing…read more Our house came with a deck that was in complete disrepair. Rotting wood, chipped and fading paint, outdated aesthetics. We really wanted a new deck and at a reasonable cost. We reached out to a few contractors via Yelp. One of them kinda gave us the runaround and wanted us to do some legwork for him, another quoted us an obscene amount for labor alone (he didn't even include materials), and then there was Roman. He came by, gave the deck a once over, inspected the existing joists and foundation, and made a recommendation to keep those in place as they were actually still solid. We decided to hire him based on his honesty, his prior work and reviews as seen on Yelp, and his estimate (which came in at about half of what the other guy had given us). When it came time to discuss materials, Roman suggested using real wood, either redwood or ipe. We asked about using Trex and he told us he believed we'd be better off with real wood. We liked Trex because of its low maintenance and durability. We talked about it more and, even though it wasn't what Roman suggested, decided to go with Trex. He was totally fine with that and we moved forward. Roman came nearly every weekday during the project unless it was raining or he had a family obligation. He demoed our old deck and built the new one. Every day he'd stay until later in the day when it started to get dark. He even stayed after dark a couple of times, working by flashlight. He also cleared the workspace of any sawdust or other debris. He worked hard and kept up a standard of tidiness throughout. In the end we wound up with a beautiful deck that we could not be happier about. Roman did an amazing job. He demoed and hauled away our old, dilapidated deck and replaced it with a beautiful new Trex deck that should last for decades. He did a fantastic job and we are thrilled we decided to go with him. Roman is from Russia, and Russian is his native language. He's very modest about his English (he thinks it isn't very good), but we rarely had any issues communicating with him. When we did, they were easily solved with Google translate. You won't regret hiring Roman. We definitely don't.
