I cannot sing the praises of Pete's Fence and Gate Company loudly enough! Pete and his team built a…read more(very) custom redwood sliding gate and fence for our home in Nevada City, which was operated by a Liftmaster solar operated motor. From start to finish, Pete and his phenomenal team delivered an experience that was nothing short of extraordinary. Their prompt, thorough, and incredibly helpful communication set the tone for a project that exceeded every expectation we had. Every question was answered with patience and expertise, making us feel valued and informed at every step. The work ethic of Pete's team is unparalleled. They showed up right on time, every time, and tackled the project with relentless dedication. Even when the weather turned foul, they powered through with unwavering commitment, often staying late to ensure every detail was perfect. Their grit and determination were truly inspiring, transforming our vision into reality with sheer hard work. What sets Pete's team apart is their meticulous attention to detail. They went above and beyond, custom-designing several elements to accommodate unforeseen challenges, including navigating quirky electronic components with finesse. The result? A gate that blends so seamlessly with our existing fences, it's as if it was always meant to be there. The craftsmanship is nothing short of breathtaking--Pete personally milled the wood in his shop, ensuring every piece was flawless, and collaborated with a local ironworker to create a custom frame that's both sturdy and stunning. The gate operates with flawless precision, a testament to their skill and care. Beyond their technical brilliance, Pete and his team are genuinely wonderful people. As a local business, they bring a warmth and authenticity that shines through in everything they do. Their passion for their craft and their customers is evident in every conversation, every custom touch, and every perfectly placed detail. They're not just building fences--they're building trust, community, and lasting beauty. Pete's cost was in line with what I expect of a team that does high quality, local work. Most importantly, when it came time to settle up, even though he ran into several challenges that forced his team to work extra hours, he didn't hit me with change orders. Honesty and integrity through and through. If you're looking for a team that combines masterful craftsmanship, tireless dedication, and heartfelt care, look no further than Pete's Fence and Gate Company. They've earned our highest recommendation and our deepest gratitude for a job spectacularly done!

Not only did they fix the system, they made excellent suggestions for improvement, in particular, minimizing water use, and making the system more resistant to damage. Daniel, the owner, is very knowledgeable and easy to work with; doing a couple of upgrades at no additional charge to us. It was a big job...all materials of the highest quality, along with the addition of 20 yards of mulch...completed quickly, at a fair price. We now have a much more efficient irrigation system thanks to this business. Superb in every detail. Cannot recommend highly enough.

We hired Pacific Land Design to install a paver patio, water feature, outdoor shower and plants…read more  The job required grading for drainage and correct elevation for the patio.   Elyse created a nice design and it seems like they have some good knowledge on native plants.   Eventually, we had to fire them when it became apparent that their work would damage the structural integrity of our home, create a drainage nightmare, and that the finished product was not going to look professional at all.  Through this experience we realized that they are also not licensed or insured.  Prior to starting the job we discussed with them that there would need to be significant grading done to the yard in order to have the patio slope away from the house which is a basic standard and to have the subsequent level of the yard drain properly.  We also removed siding and showed them where the foundation met the rim joist of our home and discussed how that patio needed to be below this level.  When it became apparent that Daniel wasn't meeting these discussed parameters, we got our laser level out and discussed with him again the way it needed to be graded and that more grading needed to take place, thinking he understood, we went on vacation.  We came back from our trip and realized that the grading was still completely inadequate.  Everything including the patio was sloped into the house.  Despite our previous discussions, Daniel piled the road base for the patio up onto our homes rim joist (not pressure treated wood) without any bituthene or flashing.  He also used non-pressure treated boards to hold in the back side of fill in other areas.  Had we not caught this, the boards and our rim joist would have rotted out in a few years compromising the structural integrity of our house and leaving the landings on our paver patio hollow and unsupported.  Also, we would have had terrible drainage issues because the entire yard was sloping into the house.  Unbeknownst to us Daniel cut and capped a line in our well house without knowing what it was and opened a valve that was taped shut and said "keep closed".   After paying a well contractor $400 to diagnose our complete loss of water to the house and fix the problem, we were told that Daniel had cut and capped the line from our well to our holding tank and then opened the line directly from the well to the house which isn't pressure regulated and could have burst our plumbing.  There were numerous other issues: steps and landings laid poorly and all at random heights, Daniel ruining several of our porcelain pavers ($80 a piece) with an angle grinder instead of using the manufacturer stated wet diamond blade ect.  Since firing PLD I have spoken to two other members of our community that had serious drainage and other structural/safety issues with their work.  I wasn't going to leave a review because Elyse seemed genuinely regretful and like she took these concerns seriously. She said they were only going to do simple planting jobs etc. however, I just learned that despite the feedback from us and 2 other clients on their negligent work they are doing another big job with a friend of ours and there have been significant issues including with the drainage.  Because of this I feel it would be irresponsible not to warn others. Elyse was apologetic about our concerns and she refunded us for the labor on the parts of the job that they had not completed.  We had already paid well over the 50% deposit because they said the materials were a lot more than they expected.  I'm thankful they refunded us what we asked for.  I don't know if this is willful negligence or a complete lack of construction knowledge and common sense, either way it's unacceptable.  Pacific Land Design may do an adequate job with small planting jobs but I would not have them do anything that requires craftsmanship, construction knowledge, touches your home or could involve drainage etc.

Initially, I was skeptical about working with Eddie because he mentioned that if I wanted the…read morediscounted price, I would need to pay in cash. I didn't have an issue with paying in cash, but given the substantial amount involved, I wanted clear confirmation and documentation of the arrangement. Before the project began, I emphasized that I wanted a very low-maintenance landscape because I don't have time for regular watering or upkeep. I originally requested a sprinkler system, but Eddie strongly advised that it wasn't necessary for my project, so I relied on his recommendation of a drip system. Additionally, even after I confirmed which plants I desired, he either quoted an excessive amount or planted items I informed him that I was not pleasing to my eye. One thing I did appreciate was that, as others have mentioned, he regularly provided video updates throughout the project. That level of communication was helpful. At the same time, I was also having a pool built, and whenever damage occurred, Eddie tended to blame the other. Fortunately, the pool company covered the repairs regardless of who was actually responsible. However, one fence board remained broken even after the pool contractor had completed their work and left the project. The project also experienced several delays. Some were understandable due to weather or because work from other contractors had to be completed first. However, there were also times when my project was postponed so his crew could work on other jobs first, which became frustrating. There were also interactions that I felt were unprofessional. I was asked personal questions about what I do for work and how I could afford my home and car, along with comments implying that my job alone wouldn't support that lifestyle. Those conversations were inappropriate and unrelated to the project. I understand that I can be detail-oriented, and I know that may have been frustrating at times. However, after investing well over $100k into renovating my backyard, I don't think it's unreasonable to expect careful attention to detail and quality workmanship. My biggest disappointment came after the project was completed. When I reached out about issues that needed to be addressed, I was often told that they weren't his crew's responsibility or that I simply needed to hire a gardener because my plants were dying. That response was especially frustrating because I had been very clear from the beginning that I wanted a low-maintenance yard and specifically did not want to hire a gardener immediately after the project. I relied on his expertise and recommendations, so I expected the landscaping to be installed in a way that aligned with those goals. Overall, while Eddie may be a good fit for smaller, less complex projects, my experience with a large-scale project left me disappointed. Between the delays, communication issues, unprofessional comments, and lack of accountability after completion, I cannot recommend him for major landscaping projects. I would also like to note I followed up with Eddie on several occasions and stated "he is overwhelmed with my project and done all the work as required."
