Wow, Tim/Ramon completed a backyard Island for us, installing a BBQ and Side Burner. Came out…read moreAmazing, very beefy looking and a great compliment to our backyard. We had a few changes in the overall design process, but the final was with just enough size to have great spacing since it's a really small backyard here by the coast in Carmel Valley. Appliances worked very nicely, both the BBQ and Side Burner and did not get damaged on installation. In addition, they capped off a stone wall with some caps, then applied stucco integrating the look together. The pictures don't show how happy we really are. During a project like this, Tim and Ramon, conduct themselves in a professional manner. Very meticulous work, no crazy damages, etc, etc. Would give them an excellent in overall conduct. Just have to finish by getting the flooring painted, then the backyard transformation will be complete.

We found and recently hired Minez Concrete for a retaining wall project, and I can honestly say…read morethis has been the best experience we've had with a contractor. This is the first time we've worked with someone who showed up on time every single day -- no excuses, no delays -- just consistent, reliable work. Oswaldo and his crew were extremely professional and clearly focused on doing the job efficiently and correctly the first time. Our situation was not simple. We had a retaining wall failure and, during excavation, discovered a pipe that we weren't even sure who it belonged to. Oswaldo went above and beyond by helping us navigate communication with the county and making sure we understood what was going on. He took the time to explain every step of the process clearly, which gave us a lot of confidence. We received six different quotes, but ultimately chose Minez Concrete because we felt the most comfortable with Oswaldo -- and that absolutely proved to be the right decision. He even came out on a Sunday to provide the estimate and was right on time, which says a lot about his professionalism. We are already planning to hire him again for a second retaining wall project that requires permits, and he has already started helping us through that process. I'll update this review once everything is fully complete, but so far, if you need a concrete contractor, Oswaldo and his team are outstanding. Highly recommend. 100 stars!!!!!

He provided options, a reasonable quote and a start date. He was puntual, professional and had a positive attitude.

Do not use this contractor. SkyWest Concrete owned by Johny A. tried to extort more money out of…read morethe project by refusing to return and complete the contracted tasks. The tasks were in a written contract signed by himself as the contractor, and myself as the homeowner for a lump sum. At this point, he tried to claim that I had changed the scope of work after we agreed to a set price, yet emails and preliminary contract documents confirmed that the scope of work never changed. He next tried to claim that because he signed my contract, I was tricking him to do more than he bargained for. He refused to return unless he was paid more money. This was unacceptable and his abandonment cost me an additional $500 more to have another contractor complete the unfinished tasks and fix poor workmanship. Specifically, when Johny was questioned about the lack of finish detail, he made an excuse and claimed a finished edge was not possible because of the type of block that was used. I don't know, did he just not care, or did he really believe what he told me? The work was not to trade standards and looked terrible. In addition, when questioned during the pour about the work not meeting county code, his defense was that he was building to "my requirements" and not to any county code. Then tried to claim that he was building to residential standards, and I was asking for commercial standards. The county standards I questioned were for residential construction. Ironically, the contract indicated that he would build to meet all applicable codes. His proposal also stated that he would comply with all federal, state and local laws and regulations, yet his excuse somehow became twisted was that it was my fault that he was not building to county requirements and I should have told him otherwise. Always an excuse that it was not his fault. There were several other project mistakes such as not ordering enough concrete, or improper rebar placement, bad elevations, but they can be overlooked. The most glaring problem was that he refused to provide a lien release for the work done and paid for. He also refused in advance to get lien releases from all the suppliers. As a work around, I offered to pay the suppliers directly, and did exactly that. I never got a lien release from him though. After he gave me the ultimatum to pay him more or he would not return, he he also stopped communication via email and ignored my further requests that he provide to me a lien release. Just before he stopped communicating, he claimed that I didn't know what I was talking about since I was not a contractor. Surprise Johny- I am a licensed California contractor and do know what I am talking about. Johny will try to get you to give him a down payment greater than 10% or $1000 maximum allowed by law. His reason: all his contractor friends do it. What about knowing the contracting laws? He is a licensed contractor after all. He will prey on the ignorance of the homeowner. The contract that he presents is severely deficient and does not meet CSLB minimum requirements and contains ridiculous provisions such as paying 60% interest. Sure, Johny came out and worked hard, but when things didn't go his way (as in getting more money), he tried to blame me. This job was not done by a professional. He was not fantastic, did not do a great job, and experience was far from amazing.

(+1 point) -Finished on time as promised and as expected. (+1 point) Final Round: The closeout I gotta say that after working with Alfonso @ Green Paradise for two of my major projects, I cannot work with anybody else. His professionalism, design skills and communications are impeccable. He truly keeps his word to his customers and bends over backwards to make sure you're happy with the work. Alfonso is a man that cares about his reputation and craftsmanship. In fact, he won me over so much, Green Parasdise now does my monthly landscape maintenance too! By the way, his assistant Adrian gots some mad skills too! I can't thank Alfonso enough for his help and service turning my house into an awesome home!

There was a lot of weeds and overgrown trees, which we wanted to replace with concrete. I had various jobs for him over a two week period. Manuel was great from start to finish. He came quickly for our first estimate for landscaping, and the value was great. His pricing was fair. Him and his crew worked quickly to get the landscaping work done in our backyard - clearing weeds, removing a large guava tree and smaller fruit tree, trimming trees, and cutting ice plants. I was so happy with their work I asked if they could clean our palm trees. The price again was great and they did it in a few hours. After that, I worked with him to get concrete laid in our backyard. The price for concrete was very reasonable. Him and his crew worked efficiently but with quality to get the concrete in our backyard. The whole concrete process took 3 days and I couldn't be happier with the final product. I also had some side projects they completed during their time here - removing a metal shed and replacing a patio cover. Manuel was always great communicating with me and his work was excellent.
