R&R recently completed a project to replace our old concrete patio with pavers, replace a concrete side path with paver stepping stones, cover a retaining wall with stacked stone facing & cap, and add lighting. The work looks amazing and overall we are pleased with it, as well as the communication and responsiveness during the project. There were definitely some challenges during the project, some due to us changing our minds regarding paver type, and then a delay in sourcing samples, and some due to R&R. Our project manager, JR, was fantastic to work with and made sure up until the very end (and beyond!) that we were happy with the work and outcome. However when he got Covid the project veered off track. We felt the work suffered without the necessary oversight and some things had to be redone which they were but it wasn't ideal. The upfront design phase was very helpful for my husband who had a hard time visualizing the outcome and the designs were very useful to refer back to, as well as the detailed plan. Unfortunately our project didn't include plants and so we did those ourselves. In retrospect I wish I'd had R&R execute the whole vision of our project.

I highly recommend R&R Backyard Remodeling for any landscaping project. Their communication, quality of work and attention to detail is unparalleled in the industry. R&R was able to build the backyard of our dreams, both on schedule and within our budget. After shopping around our landscape design to several highly rated landscaping companies on Yelp, R&R was the only company who took the time to meet with us in person. Ron and Tamir reviewed our initial design, surveyed the yard and provided us a competitive and detailed quote within a week. R&R completely owned the permitting process and worked with the city to submit and approve a building permit within 3 months. Once the project started, R&R had a team of highly skilled laborers, (led by Luis), working 6 days a week. Ron and Tamir frequently visited the job site and were able to accommodate several minor change orders as the project progressed. Once the hardscape was complete, Raul started the fabrication of an outdoor kitchen that included a TV wall, electric fireplace, sink, mini fridge and ice-maker. Raul worked tirelessly to manufacture and level a custom steel frame for the kitchen. And despite an aggressive deadline, R&R passed every inspection and was able to finish the project on time. R&R was a pleasure to work with and I would strongly recommend them for any outdoor project. Ron, Tamir and Ronelle were extremely responsive throughout the entire project. Luis, Raul and their laborers were experienced, hardworking, respectful and always on time. We truly could not be any happier with the result. R&R constructed a beautiful outdoor living space that our family will cherish forever.

After remodel. Grass replaced with dryscape and a few plants.

We worked with R&R Backyard Remodeling to convert our small backyard lawn into dryscape to require less water but still be a nice space for our two small dogs. They were transparent throughout the process, finished the job as specified, and cleaned up everything. I expect to work with them again on future projects.

Patio after a couple of months

R&R was super quick to respond and provide us with a quote for a new patio. We set the date and were told that the work would completed within a week. It took us many calls and constant following up to ensure they actually came every day to do the work. No proactive communication. Prices weren't competitive (the same quotes we got from other companies) but the company changed the contract from the quote for the same price (they omitted a few items). We got them to complete everything but it was a battle. The patio looked OUTSTANDING, absolutely beautiful. For about 2 months.... It now looks like it's 10-15 years old and I'm realizing I'll need to hire another company to redo Huge disappointment that costed thousands of dollars.

UPDATE 5/16: Shortly…read moreafter posting my review on 5/10 I received a text response from the company. In addition to explaining that it's busy season and that they are running behind on generating quotes, Eriberto included a promise to send the quote by EOD 5/12. If it's going to take some time to provide a quote, why not tell me up front or as soon as it becomes apparent that business tasks are getting backed up? I've updated the review score from 2 to 3 because I did receive a quote on 5/12. I'm unable to rate any higher based on the overall interaction, primarily that the responses from the company only came after I posted Yelp reviews. THIS IS MY REVIEW FROM 5/10: The company is non-responsive. I do not recommend requesting a bid from them for any landscape improvement projects. This was my experience: I left a voice message asking for callback on 4/23. No return call. I left a voice message asking for callback on 4/24. No return call. I tried calling 3 times on 4/29 and none of the calls went through. I posted a 3 star Yelp review at the end of the day on 4/29. Less than 1 hour later someone named Eddie called me, apologized, and asked if I would send him my project information via email so he could respond with a bid. Eddie texted me a couple hours later with the email address I should send to. He also asked me to remove my 3 star Yelp review. On 4/30 I emailed him my project scope of work (summary and details) as well as job site photos. I also obliged and removed my Yelp review. I felt they deserved another chance. Today is 5/10. Nobody ever got back to me. I am done with them. My review is now 2 stars.

I got a couple of quotes through Yelp, but ultimately decided to go with Kay Green -- and I'm so glad I did. It took Young and his crew about a day and a half to complete the project. I live in a townhouse community, and they were very respectful of the shared space. They did an excellent job cleaning up the carport area they used for their equipment and materials. We ran into a few unexpected issues during the project, but Young was always upfront about what was happening and communicated his solutions clearly. His recommendations were thoughtful and turned out great. I would definitely use Kay Green again for any future landscaping projects and will happily recommend them to family and friends!

They ruined and broke numerous branches while admitting that these plants are very delicate. They rushed the job that should have been at least two hours and finished in one hour. I should have stopped them after the owner told me to go inside and they will let me know when they were done. You never tell someone that's paying you $500 dollars to take your time and do a professional job to go inside. I should have told him to get the F off of my property and hired someone else. I would have been better off hiring men from Home Depot. Totally unprofessional, rushed the job, ruined a couple of plants and didn't give a shit how it looked, even after I showed the owner the damaged plants and all the broken branches only to find more as the branches dried out in the weeks to come. He tells me the plants are delicate, but yet they didn't treat them that way. I will never hire this unprofessional company again and recommend that you don't hire them either. They have plenty of help to do a good job, but refuse to do so. This was a total rip off job to the tune of $500. I'm so sorry I hired this clown to do this job, every time I look at what they did it makes me sick and pissed that I didn't throw them off my property and paid them nothing. I've waited weeks to write this review, in hopes that the job would look better, but it doesn't. Thanks a lot, KAY GREEN LANDSCAPING FOR DOING A SHITTY JOB AND TELLING ME TO GO INSIDE. I should have kicked your ass to the curb and told you to take a hike.

After looking around online, we found 101 Landscape and reached out. Alex got back to us quickly and came by to check out the space and talk through what we had in mind. We ended up doing a full refresh across the driveway, front, side, and backyard. In the front, we replaced the concrete driveway with pavers, added a grass lawn, and included a decorative planting area. Along the side and in the backyard, we replaced all the concrete with pavers, added more grass, and created another mulched planting area for low-maintenance landscaping. Since it was such a big project, we spent a lot of time in the design phase to make sure we'd be happy with the long-term results. Alex was very patient and flexible with us throughout the process. Once we gave the green light, the crew started pretty quickly and finished in about 3 weeks, which was impressive given all the demolition, hardscaping, and softscaping involved. The quality of the work really shows (see photos) and they even pressure washed the front and back upon completion. Cost-wise, it was definitely an investment, but we feel like we got great value for the quality and scope of the work. We're really happy with how everything turned out and can't wait to enjoy our new outdoor spaces. Would definitely recommend 101 Landscape to anyone looking for a full outdoor upgrade!

All prior interior work in our house had been done by handyman. I really appreciated the communication from our project manager Marc. He created a WhatsApp chat with me and the incredible designer Jocelyn. They were both consistently responsive to any of my questions or concerns -- and opened my mind to design options. Jocelyn spent time in our home, drafted plans, took me shopping, and sourced all the fixtures. From her spreadsheet I was able to find less expensive options for some items. I appreciated the input and control I had on these expenses. Since we needed to move out, I had a tight timeline for the project -- mid October until Thanksgiving. Marc and the team did their best despite City of San Jose delays with inspections. We were able to move back in before the final inspection. Every member of the team was kind and courteous. Marc also did a great job working with the window vendor that specializes in older homes. I'm rating the experience a 4.5 out of 5 for two reasons. I was disappointed that the medicine cabinet, switch plates, and hooks were initially installed unevenly (it was corrected). I expected more attention to detail. And I was disappointed in the wear & tear that happened on my wood floors as well as the overall dust in my dining room. I was warned that things would get dusty -- but didn't understand the extent and would have packed away more things. WISE offers lots of support with design -- they could also offer as part of their package a full cleaning! I offer this feedback to help others calibrate their expectations. Overall it was a positive experience. I waited several months to post this review until I returned from travel and could see how things were settling after regular use. I'm loving the new bathroom and recommend WISE.
