I finally contacted Joe with Radiant Landscape Lighting. He contacted me the same day and came over the same day to give me a reasonable quote. He was super honest and up front. I think integrity is important especially with a company I am working with. Joe was able to form and pour the concrete the same week. He stayed in contact with me and promptly answered my messages. Concrete turned out great! I will use Joe again for other projects and have already recommended him to several people.

I contacted Radiant Landscape via YELP and the owner, Joe Turner, responded almost immediately…read more After explaining my project needs Joe offered to come to my residence (on the same day) to get a visual of the layout in my backyard. For reference I wanted string lights installed and a new electrical outlet. Working with Joe and his staff has been an amazing experience. I'm extremely picky and I moreorless knew exactly what I wanted but Joe provided some excellent insight and truly helped my vision come to fruition. Additionally, after the project was completed he even came back to make some additional modifications for me. I highly recommend Radiant Landscape and will be utilizing their services for all future projects. Needless to say I am one happy customer. Thank you Joe!

Despite some unforeseen complications with the project, he stayed true to the original bid and did a fantastic job. His pricing was more than fair, and he proved to be highly reliable, which is more than I can say about the other people that gave us bids. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to any of my friends.

Concrete Concepts Designs finished a job today at my home in Rancho Mirage. The job was to repair…read moresome cracks in the coping around my pool and hot tub and to give them a new texture, tint, and seal. I am very happy with the results and with the way Jorge Hernandez and his team showed up. Jorge is very personable and easy to talk to. He developed a free estimate as advertised, and explained what was possible and what to expect. His crew showed up on time and did the work they said they would do. Jorge showed up at different times during the project to answer questions and to make certain his crew was on track. The work finished on time and the price was what we agreed--there were no hidden fees. I'm very happy with the final product.

We LOVE our patio! We highly recommend this company for any concrete work you may be considering…read more They are very competitive in price and do fine work. Small companies try harder. They were very patient with my changes and finished on time. Jorge was helpful in adjusting a door that needed shaved. Don't hesitate to remember this company for a bid, you won't be sorry!

A few months ago we contracted with Goodpaster Construction for some major remodeling of our home…read more Goodpaster Construction remodeled our family room, kitchen, and bathroom, and has painted several other rooms. We are very satisfied with the work. We think we would have paid a little less, had we gone with someone else, but we doubt the quality would have been as good. Joe Goodpaster, the owner, has worked in construction for over 50 years, and we got the impression that he's learned quite a bit over that time. But he was also very open to our suggestions regarding how we wanted the house remodeled. He tried his best to accommodate our every wish. We found him easy to work with. His crew always showed up on time. There were schedule changes on a few occasions, but Joe always called us ahead of time to advise us of the revised schedule. His workers, including Shannon, Justin, Larry, and Luis, were always very polite to us. They also seemed competent and professional at the work they performed. His crew cleaned up at the end of each workday, so no messes were left behind. And construction debris was promptly removed from the property, usually on the same day. A few small problems arose during this remodeling, but we think that's to be expected for such a major job. Every day, Joe would solicit us to talk about anything that left us dissatisfied. And we were always able to work things out and resolve the few issues that did arise. I highly recommend Goodpaster Construction to those who don't mind paying a little extra for the quality and care this contractor puts into a job.

I recently needed extensive repair work done to the kitchen in my condo because of water damage…read moresuffered from the adjacent neighbor's pipes backing up while he was away on vacation. Ah, the joys of shared walls! After getting everything dried out, we brought in Dan Grisa and his crew to do the repairs. The lower kitchen cabinets, oven area, and the walls behind all had to be replaced and/or repaired. Dan met with us and clearly communicated everything that needed to be done and gave us a timeline for how long the job would take. It was completed on schedule and he and his crew were as courteous and unobtrusive to our daily routine as possible while the work was being done. I would recommend them to anyone in a need of a contractor and will be using them again should the need arise.

We used Grisa Enterprises (Dan Grisa) to remodel a house in Palm Springs. It was a very large job…read moreand Dan told us he had the experience and the ability to get it done. We had nothing but headaches and delays throughout the process. Grisa made numerous changes to the initial estimates, many times without consulting us. One of the most significant problems involved upgrading the electrical system in the house. We had been quoted a complete rewire and new panel and did not find out until it was too late that he did not complete the work. We had to call him back numerous times to correct deficiencies in the work. He was not reliable. We were left with a very sour experience and would not recommend him or use him on another project in the future.

He returned my call the same day and was able to come take care of a couple projects the very next day. In a world of flaky contractors, his great communication skills and follow-through really stand out and set him apart. He took care of a couple minor things in a reasonable amount of time and for a reasonable price. He's now our first call for any other home improvement projects that drop up. My husband and I are so pleased we found him!

I hired Jon to do some finishing touches ( paint and new toilet) on my staged home in prep for…read moresale. I did not live on the premises when I hired him but trusted him with my key. He is a nice guy and during one of our chats told me he and his gf lived in a trailer behind Home Depot and heating bills were high. His gf did not work. I felt bad and told him that if I was satisfied with his work, I would let him replace my patio. Up to that point the paint job he did was fine. Covid hit and future work had to be temporarily halted. I asked him several times to return my key but he never did. I found out why. He and his gf and pets were squatting and partying in my home. The white berber carpet was now dark gray with cigarette ashes and pet stains. The bed was unmade and the new bedspread and sheets stained with bodily fluids. The new carpet in the bathrooms had apparently been saturated with water and there was mold. The toilets were not only stained but one upstairs toilet that Jon had gone with me to pick out and make sure I got the right one leaked all over the floor and stained the ceiling beneath. I suppose living in a beautiful townhome with central air and heat sure beats a trailer. Glassware and items used to stage the home were also missing. Other then myself, the only other person with a key was Jon. I immediately called the police and made a police report. They told me I could press charges but since for all intents and purposes Jon was indigent, the only thing that would happen is a bit of jail time. I would never recover for the damage he had done. It was the LAPD that suggested I write a review. BTW, Jon also mentioned that on another occasion he was accused of entering a home he was working on w/o permission and actually causing more damage then he had been hired to fix. This couple threatened to sue Jon and refused to pay him. When Jon told me this story, I believed he had been wronged but now not only do I wish the couple had left a review, I wish I had seen the red flag. As the police suggested, I posted a review last year which Jon responded to via a private message ( which I kept) laden with expletives and wishes that I die. He also managed to get my honest review removed. I have learned a very valuable lesson. From now on I will only use professional people or people recommended by someone I personally know. In my effort to save a few dollars, I ended up spending a whole lot more to replace carpeting, toilets, towels, bedspread, sheets and pillows and repair the mold and ceiling stains. It's too easy to get a group of friends to write stellar reviews and Yelp does not vet its businesses. All I can say is caveat emptor. Do your due diligence and by all means if you insist on hiring Jon, do not entrust him with your key, and make sure someone is on the premises when he is there.

We cut it close in June asking for an epoxy floor coating for our newly built home in Palm Desert…read more Thinking we would have to wait until cooler fall weather, Mike said that he would watch the weather forecast for an opportunity for two consecutive days under 105F. Sure enough we lucked out with a cooler-than-normal June and he was able to do the job done while we were traveling abroad. We returned home to a beautiful new epoxy-coated garage floor at a far more reasonable interned-special price (of $1599 plus $100 distance fee) than the $2350 quoted by a highly-rated local guy. Mike was always on top of our job and his professionalism is evident in how accommodating and customer-centric he is. His website features a trove of helpful information that should answer any questions you might have. I highly recommend the Epoxy Garage Guy.

This was the only company that I contacted that included a vapor barrier sealer given the age of my house, and the price was the most competitive even including this sealer. I scheduled for a week out. The team that worked on the project, Bobby, Andrew and Alex, were proactive in their communication, telling me each day when they would be arriving. The work was done efficiently and to a high standard, and everyone I dealt with was friendly and very pleasant to interact with. I highly recommend this company.
