Got a patio put in and couldn't be happier. Robert did a great job and all his guys were professional and hard workers. Everything was done fast and extremely well. He also put in two gas lines for a fire pit and BBQ island. When I'm ready to do the rest of my yard I will definitely be calling them back. read more

Warning! We signed up with Patron in March and were told 3 months or less to do our pool. Started off no communication and plans were drawn backwards. There wasn't anyone on site to guide the random workers that would show up every other week to work so we had to print and laminate a picture of what we discussed with the salesman Kevin initially in order to have the pool come out correctly. They only called for 1 inspection in which they failed. Things started to drag out for months because we would only get a crew of 3 guys to show up for a day every week and a half. We finally started calling the office and got a hold of Robert the owner. He came out and told us he was going to take over and get the pool going for us. When he came out he asked for a check for the remainder of our pavers and retaining walls that were about 90% complete and I gave it too him. The crew showed up 1 more day and that was it. He texted me last week and said he is going through rough times and is filing bankruptcy. He told us to have one of his other pool contractors which originally he had hired just to dig the pool for him to give us a price to finish out the pool and surrounding hardscape. I got the prices back from him and another pool company and they were both higher than the balance of the money we have left just to get the pool part complete. We are now stuck 4 months later spending more money to hire another pool contractor to finish the pool and are stuck with having to pay to get our pavers, retaining walls, stacked stone complete in which I paid them to do already. If anyone wants to get a hold of me including his workers I can forward the texts between Robert and myself. This is a 100% true nightmare that we and I'm sure a couple of others are going through right now. I wouldn't trust these guys as far as I can throw our half done pool, Gary San Marcos More to add. We just received a lien notice from material supply company. read more

Over the years we have hired several contractors to accomplish various work on our home. Recently, we found Patron Construction and asked for a quote to remove the old cracked concrete slab from our patio and replace it with a new, colored one. Robert came and measured the job, asked questions to make certain he understood exactly what we wanted done. He then sent a very fair estimate and we made a date to do the job. His crew, Juan, Brandon and Henry showed up on time and began the work of removing the old concrete. They found that it was a much harder job than planned because the original concrete had been poured in differing thicknesses. Nonetheless, they worked for two days breaking it up, removing it and hauling it away. We were amazed at how hard this crew worked, how courteous and pleasant they were and also how well they worked together. They never stopped except for a very brief lunch break and were right back at it. The chunks were extremely heavy but they lifted them into a wheel barrow and hauled them out to the trailer without one hesitation. We were amazed at how hard this crew worked and made certain that the job was done correctly. They ran into some problems with the patio posts that had sunk a bit over the years so they fixed this problem. They made certain that we were apprised of the progress and inquired if there was anything we needed done differently. The next day, they added Chris and poured the new tinted concrete in very hot weather...never stopping to break and making certain that every moment of attending to the wet concrete was done properly. They stamped a beautiful pattern into portions of it and brushed several other parts. All in all, we were amazed at Robert's crew and the magnificent job they did for us. Also, Robert was reachable at all times during the job and checked in to make certain all was going as we wanted. Thanks very much to Robert and Patron Construction. We will never hesitate to recommend you and your crew. read more

Well, I have a lot of thinks to say about this company, I'll make it short: 1. They don't have good communication with their workers, and all between them, they don't return calls. 2. You have to be calling them to ask what's the next step because they don't tell you anything. 3. They failed most of the inspections and that made the construction process even slower. 4. They don't put restrooms for their workers even though their contract states they would. 5. They tried to change the estimate they gave us at the beginning because they underestimated it. 6. They didn't reconnect our irrigation system when they finished, they said they would and never came back. 7. They didn't replace the mulch in the area used during construction, again this is all in their contract. 8. My husband had to finish portion of the project himself to finish on time and had to take days off from work. 9. Their start-up guy did not train us on the pool maintenance like he said he would and we didn't get the maintenance kit like we were supposed to per contract. Don't use them unless you want to go through this hell with them, I wouldn't recommend spending your money nor your time, plenty of other contractors out there. read more

Robert and Patron Construction gave us a backyard makeover and we couldn't be more happier. Robert the owner was very easy to work with and knowledgeable when it came to brainstorming ideas and he was great in letting us know what would work good in our backyard without compromising the wants and needs that were on our wishlist. They were always on time and delivered whenever they said they would. The guys were friendly, professional, and hard workers. Robert's attention to detail from landscaping, hardscaping, and all the other elements that went into our backyard gave us everything that we could of ever wanted. Let's just say we can't wait to get started on our next project with Robert and team. read more

These guys are Thieves and LIARS. We started our pool build with them in January 2017, the project was off to a really good start and then started to dwindle at the end. Project was never completed, they just stop showing up. No accountability was taken. We have had to pay thousands to get the project finished on our own. Now we have 2 mechanics liens against our home because Patron construction and Robert & Dave Kingston stole over $15,000 from us. They never paid the cement companies the money we had given them. And now after fighting, we are going to have to just pay it again. Unfortunately that is not the end. Now our pool is leaking from the raised edge, less then 6 months in. And our backyard never finished final inspection because of all the mistakes/shortcuts that have been done along the way. The inspector said what dirtbags these guys were. What an absolute nightmare this has been. I can't believe these guys are just walking around town when they put so many people in such a bad financial place. These are the worst type of contractors!!! Never hire Patron construction for anything... but I'm sure they'll be operating under another name soon if not already. read more

Patron Construction is extremely professional and they employ only the most skilled workers. Rob is exceptionally gifted with abilities to design and create backyard experiences that have both function and beauty. All the elements of pool, patio, fire-pit, and landscaping, seamlessly flow together. Rob's meticulous attention to detail separates him from all other contractors. You get MORE than you pay for with Patron Construction. I only wish I knew about him sooner. read more

I have to give Robert and his crew at Patron Construction 5 stars for the amazing job they did in my back yard. I'm in the process of putting in a patio. Robert and Patron Construction came recommended. I decided to give them a call but not before doing my homework and checking them out on Yelp. I saw nothing but good reviews about Robert and his crew. I called Robert to set up an appointment for a quote. I'm an old school type person, so your word, your integrity and honesty mean a lot. Robert gave me a day and time to meet and when that day came he was there and on time. Robert walked me through the process, explained to me in detail what needed to be done in order to accomplish what I wanted. He was very patient and answered all my questions. He was very respectful and professional. He quoted me a price that I felt was reasonable for the amount of work that needed to be done but I still wanted to see some of his work besides what I had seen on their website. He gave me a location where they had done some work on some model homes. I was impressed to say the least. I called Robert and asked him when he could start. He said he would send his crew that Monday at 6:30 am. That Monday Chris and the rest of the crew were at my door 6:30 am to remove the grass and some existing concrete also to set the forms. To watch these guys in action, you can tell they knew what they were doing. They too were respectful and professional and had no problem answering any question I had. Robert told me to be ready that Wednesday, he was going to send a crew to poor the concrete 6:30 am. This time I was up waiting on them. Chris and the rest of the guys showed up right on time and immediately started working. When the job was complete, it was exactly what I had expected. They had done a beautiful job. Everything just fell into place. Thank you Robert and crew. Patron Construction will be the company we use from now on. We look forward to be working with you soon when we do our sitting wall along with the fire pits. Thanks again Robert. read more

Terrible contractor to work with, a two star review is far too generous of us, there are plenty of pool and landscape contractors out there, don't use these guys unless you want to go through very frustrating and stressful months of your life. I'll give them the benefit of doubt and say that they may have been a good company to work with in the past but they are not any more, my overall opinion is that they have taken on too much work and lack the right amount of people to manage it properly, they take jobs that for starters are probably not priced properly and should not be the paying customers problem. They fail miserably at communicating with the paying customer, I had to be constantly calling them to ask about a plan, blueprint, details, or any kind of information to try and clarify what is it that they were going to do exactly, and then of course after clarifying via email, text or phone calls I would often see them do something else, if I had not been all over them they would of built the job differently as they felt it best suited them. The sales manager Kevin is either completely unqualified to be in the business or does not care, he is not the owner and the owner only cares about getting paid. They schedule the work poorly, they fail simple inspections which delay the work, they leave a mess around the site and workers are forced to urinate on your backyard because they have no porta-toilet. I had to take work away from their contract to be able to finish the job on time and within my budget, to which of course they threw a big fit about because I think they expect you to just keep writing checks. The pool had water for nearly 30 days and we had no working spa, it took them forever to clean up their debris/trash, they didn't replace the entrance area mulch, to date they have never reconnected my irrigation system and they didn't supply the pool maintenance kit that per contract I was supposed to get. Any communication I have with them now is through their pool start-up guy, they screwed themselves out of building two more pools on my block. The pool quality appears to be good; it's only been a couple of months so we'll see but just terrible to work with, as a contractor myself the hardest thing to deal with is a losing money job, so you finish them as quick and as best as you can and make up for it on the next one, don't piss off your customers because it's them you depend on. read more

I was referred to patron construction by another contractor. On September 8th Anthony came to my one for an estimate. I was impressed by his ideas. I told him there was an urgency for the work to be done in time for my daughters birthday in mid October. I waited the 4 days fur the estimate and nothing. A week after that I called and was told I would everyone the estimate in a few minutes. I was told this 3 times the same day and never hit the estimate. 2 days later I called the office and left a message. I was called hours later by Anthony who apologized and he promised me he would give me the estimate that night. Nothing...I texted him that night and have heard nothing. Not a good way to do business. This was going to be around $25,000 job. It will be someone else's gain. Except now I don't think I can find someone that can do the job in time for my babies 1st birthday. Now I'm telling the other contractor how bad his recommendation was. read more

Robert was referred to me by another contractor and I was glad I used Patron Construction. Robert provided some extra ideas that made made our project (pool and patio) come out great and still remained close to our budget. He and his crew take a lot of pride in their workmanship. I have received many compliments from friends who have seen the completed project. I would not hesitate to use Robert and Patron Construction on another project. Thanks for a great job! read more

I retired in 2014 and moved back to SoCal from Seattle to build my retirement home to include a major backyard construction project. I was surprised when several pool/spa construction companies wouldn't return my calls. So I asked my home builder to recommend a local, reputable builder. Patron Construction was highly recommended and they didn't disappoint. David from Patron actually answered the phone when I called and we scheduled a conference for the following day. David and Robert are the major players with Patron where David is, among other things, a certified spa "guru." David and I spent a couple hours together where I told him that I was interested in a major pool/spa/patio/BBQ project along with stamped concrete decking, sidewalk to front area and driveway widening. Without going into a detailed description of all the projects, I'll summarize by saying that all projects were done quite professionally and in a timely manor. David designed and built me a raised spa, spilling into the pool, for the ages. He "pebble-teched" all spa and pool interior surfaces while installing top of the line Pentair equipment. It's actually quite extraordinary that a project of this scale was finished inside of 4 months! My dream was to host a 4th of July pool party, a long stretch on a good day, and I wound-up filling the pool on July 3rd! I called Patron for some minor tweaking issues when they first finished and David promptly answered my phone call and addressed my concerns THAT SAME DAY! To summarize, Patron showed up! And I couldn't be more pleased. Professionalism, timeliness and top of the line pool, spa and aluminum patio construction & equipment paved the way for an incredible transformation! On a scale from 1 to 10, I give 'em a 15! If you'd ever like to see file picture of my project, I'm sure Robert and David would be proud to share mine with you. They were posted on social media in the fall of 2014. I wholeheartedly recommend Patron Construction for any and all of your building needs. They built me another Graceland! I don't even leave the house anymore unless I need groceries...Patron Rocks! read more
