They kept things clean and respectful--no smoking, swearing, or dogs running off-leash--just a hardworking, friendly team. Paul helped us choose the best fencing options for our needs and budget, kept us updated throughout the process, and made sure we were 100% happy before asking for payment. The final price matched the estimate exactly, and they even went the extra mile by using fill from the fence posts to patch some holes on our property. Our fence and gates turned out even better than we expected, and we couldn't be more pleased!

Gave Ray from RNB a call to come by to check it out and get an estimate to cleaning up those nasty roots and make an evenly slope with gravel. He came in no time and gave me a good estimate for the front yard and also a drainage problem in the driveway area. Scheduled, there was good communication through out the process. He was easy to talk to, they do solid efficient work. Two days later it was all done and very satisfied with the end result. Will be recommending for sure.

Outstanding Landscaping & Hardscape Work -- RNB Land Services (Hilo / Big Island)…read more Ray (the owner) and his crew at RNB Land Services have been absolutely incredible to work with. If you're looking for a reliable, professional landscaper in Hilo or on the Big Island, we highly recommend Ray. They completed three major phases of landscaping and hardscape work at our home in Pepeekeo, and the transformation has been amazing. Phase 1: Ray redesigned our front entrance and pool area with beautiful lava rock pavers, lava stone landscape edging, and lava rock gravel fill. He also selected outstanding tropical plants and vibrant ti leaves that made the whole space feel like a resort. Phase 2: They landscaped our driveway and gated entrance, adding great plantings, tall areca palms for privacy, and lining the driveway with elegant foxtail palms. The curb appeal is truly next level. Phase 3: Ray and his team planted over 75 areca palms along the edge of our property to create a lush privacy hedge, and it turned out even better than we hoped. Ray and his team were always professional, polite, and dependable, and they took great care to keep the work areas clean and tidy every day. Ray also gave us excellent advice on the best practices for both planting and hardscape, and he went out of his way to source the best-quality plants at the best prices. His quotes were accurate, fair, and very reasonable -- no surprises. If you need landscaping, hardscape, or property maintenance in the Hilo area, Ray and RNB Land Services are the real deal. We would hire them again in a heartbeat. Aloha, Greg and Nicki Darrow Pepeekeo, HI

They came immediately and realized that both the pump and the backup pump had failed due to a rope degrading and getting caught in the pump motor. When they built the house, they didn't install grinder pumps. The most heavy duty grinder pumps are Liberty Pumps. I was going to have them sent in by FedEx overnight, but Sewer Solutions had them brand new from another job that were provided to them for a large commercial job that really needed even bigger grinder pumps. They sold me two, 1-hp Liberty Grinder Pumps at their cost plus shipping. Instead of waiting even 2 days to bring them in by FedEx (these are about 40 lbs each), they brought them over the next day with a standby electrician to wire everything to code. If I could give these guys 10 stars, I would. Fast, honest, hard-working and fair. THE BEST EXPERIENCE I'VE EVER HAD WITH A REPAIR OF THIS MAGNITUDE -- HANDS DOWN!

Follow-up work (faucet replacement and shutoff valve replacements) had to wait for a building-wide water shutoff. When I learned on Jan 23 that a shutoff had been scheduled for Jan 31 (a limited, 3-hour window that happens maybe a few times a year), I contacted Drain Man immediately--speaking with the office manager and following up the same day by both text and email with full details. (These communications had concluded by 1:15 p.m.) By 11:30 a.m. Monday morning I hadn't heard back. When I called again, (the call rolled over from the office directly to the plumber, who said he was on his back underneath someone's sink), I was told nothing was scheduled and was asked for the work details again, despite having already provided them. When I expressed concern about the multiple provisions of the details--given the tight timing--the conversation was ended abruptly by the plumber ("I'm busy"). This experience suggested organizational and communication issues. That impression was reinforced by the fact that my landlord had also been waiting on an electronic invoice from the December visit and still hadn't received it by Jan. 12. Bottom line: if you're judging purely on workmanship, I have no complaints. But if timely communication, clear scheduling, and not having to repeat yourself matter to you, this may not be the right fit.

That's like me sending a bulldozer to repair your house. Very unprofessional and said it would be another few weeks when he got back from vacation to repair this. I said I was pissed off and this was bullshit and then he tells My Husband that since I'm cursing that he would have to charge for the repairs instead of doing them for free as he stated from the beginning. It doesn't matter the charge to me. it matters that the job is done and done, right. Not sending a carpenter who has no clue what he's doing to a plumbers repair. And I as I told him he can shove it up his ass before I hung up on the fool. There's plenty better and more professional services out there than half ass plumbers that send carpenters to do their job just because they're going on vacation very unprofessional.
