I hired Skywood Landscaping to complete a major renovation of my house's backyard primarily because…read moreof their stellar reputation and expertise with design and installation of paved patios. Ken Truong (owner of Skywood) and his crew were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Ken carefully listened to my objectives during an initial site visit. I didn't have a particular design in mind, but within about 10 days Ken was able to prepare a written proposal that included 2D and 3D photos of what the finished landscape renovation might look like. This was really helpful because only few iterations of discussion and revisions were needed to complete the final proposal. Demolition of the existing backyard included removal of trees, artificial turf, patio blocks, and a considerable amount of soil. This phase was completed relatively quickly and without any problems due to Skywood's obvious experience. The next phases included installation of drainage pipes and conduits for lighting and irrigation and then covering with rock base and pavers. Skywood's efforts during these phases included an uncommonly high level of attention to detail to ensure that rainwater would flow away from the house and into the storm drains. The final phases included installation of a redwood fence, installation of rock veneer and capstone to cover a retaining wall, and installation of lights, plants and irrigation to produce a really beautiful garden. Despite several hot summer days, Ken and his crew always had a friendly, positive attitude and left the worksite clean each day. I give Skywood Landscaping my highest recommendation, and I would surely hire them in the future.

What a wonderful experience replacing my small backyard lawn. For years, this area was difficult to…read moremaintain. It was a curved area and hard to irrigate as well. Ken suggested I look at their newer samples of artificial turf. There has been some progress in materials which are durable and cooler than the older materials from years past. I love my new lawn! I can walk on it in the sun with bare feet, and no more wasted water. His crew were very experienced and able to complete my new landscaping project in just one day. Their crew even straightened out some crooked paving stones I had been meaning to fix. So kind of them. While working around my existing landscaping they protected everything. No damage anywhere. And the cleanup was perfect. Real top notch pros! Even the quote was incredibly affordable. I could not recommend anyone as high as Skywood.

Atlas installed pavers to fill in the area in our backyard where a deck used to be. At first we…read morewanted to try to match the pavers that were already back there but they suggested to do something very different to make it look almost like an outdoor rug. That was back in 2019 and it still looks amazing! Almost no weeds grow through the cracks, unlike the existing pavers in our backyard. I love the way they installed the new pavers at an angle and added a border.

In addition, they created a two path walkway and small patio in our backyard using pavers left over from a side patio project years ago. They also replaced our very repaired city sidewalk with a new one (which we paid for since the city would not) Owner Junior was immediately responsive from the very beginning to any questions/concerns or to any changes needed; the same was true for Gabriel, the project manager. Since I was overseeing everything due to my husband's declining health, I really appreciated that they treated me as a woman as an equal.

He cleared out our hillside which is on a steep slope and had left-over wood from 4-5 tall trees cut down over the last 30 years plus brush that had grown wild. After the first day of clearing out, it was clear that the job was much bigger and taking longer than Jose expected. But to Jose's credit he did not walk away from the job. He came back and finished the job and he did it in a thorough and complete manner. I kept expecting him to take short cuts and rush through it, but he never did. At the end, he told me that he had lost quite a bit of money on the job, but he had given me a price and he would honor it. Given the excellent work and the fact that he honored his commitment to finish the job, I paid him extra even though he never pushed me or insisted on it. With respect to the 1 star review by Ira D below, I can see how Ira might be unhappy. Given the excellent work Jose does at such a fair price, he is very busy. It did sometimes take several days to get a response form Jose or I had to send a follow up message. You can look up J&J Landscape on other sites and see his reviews. On the one I checked (ends in "tack"), he had 22 reviews and a rating of 5 stars.
