Post-repair
Amber H.

We needed a driveway repair to remove tripping hazards for our home owners insurance. Many companies tried to sell us a whole new driveway - Ricardo was the only one who came out, looked at the situation, and came up with an affordable solution. We are so happy with how the repair turned out!

My wife found this company on Yelp and they were a great find. Ricardo was very helpful when we were trying to figure out the size we wanted. They were respectful of our property and personal space. I would recommend this company to anyone who is looking for masonry work. The quality of their work is excellent and they guarantee it.

I did a lot of research on concrete work before I chose S.O.S. From start to finish the communication with Ricardo was amazing, he kept me in the loop the whole time. They had the best price and offered a one year warranty. Some places I called didn't offer that. That just shows that they stand behind their work. Project was done fast and beautiful. I contacted them on Wednesday, he came out the next day for an in person consultation. By Friday they already got started. They take great pride in their work. If you're looking for work done. Give them a call or text. Very impressed with this company and I highly recommend.

Concrete stuck to the fiberglass pool.

Unfortunately I cannot and would not recommend this company. Aside from bailing out in the middle of the job, the work done pouring of a concrete patio around pool is one of the worst jobs I've seen. My home has 50 year old concrete that still looks better than this month old job. Immediately it was discolored and I was told why does it matter I'm going to walk on it and use it anyway. Such a poor response. In addition, they left chunks of concrete on the patio and when they cleaned that up I now have divots. And drip marks all over the turn down wall. And when I reached out about needing them to fix some of these issues I was met with silence I guess because the backed out of the rest of the job. They felt they had no need to respond. Use them if you don't care about quality, finish, service or aesthetics. Otherwise go somewhere else.

Ricardo and his team at SOS knocked our patio project out of the park. Ricardo came over and did an in-person consultation on what we were looking for, and brought his vision to fruition. He and his team worked long days, and constantly gave updates, and finished a concrete slab addition and patio cover in less than a week. He also had the best pricing of any company I could find. I will be working with Ricardo again on any other projects I can think of!

Ricardo and his crew at SOS Masonry did a fantastic job on my patio. Ricardo was very responsive and professional, cost competitive, and best of all he takes tremendous pride in his work. You can also tell that his crew is loyal, taken care of, and passionate about their craft. SOS also did the work within the time frame and budget promised. I would highly recommend this company for their masonry. They are skilled not only in pouring the concrete slab but also laying pavers and cutting stone in a rather intricate design (see

Before work was done - an example of the types of cracks that they filled.
Emily S.

I'm really pleased with the masonry work that SOS did on my house. I needed someone to repair a multitude of minor holes and cracks in the stonework on the outside of the front of my house and install weep holes. I got 2 bids for this job and SOS had the best bid and seemed the most reliable. They got the job done quickly and neatly, and cleaned up after themselves. Thank you for a job well done, my house looks great!

The mortar on my yard wall fell off after a heavy rainfall. I was afraid that prolonged exposure would compromise the house foundation. I contacted SOS, and Ricardo gave a reasonable estimate for parging, and promised that he could be out there the next day, before noon time. He came out and completed the parging work on time, as promised.

Outdoor kitchen

Sometimes contractors don't always do what they were paid to do. That is why we partner with amazing teams like S.OS. Masonry and Landscaping to help deliver results like this. Thankful to the team for jumping in to help rescue this outdoor kitchen project for a customer.

notice how warped this retaining wall he built was. when asked to put additional reinenforcement joints, he said no &walked off the project.
Sophia O.

This is based upon our experience with an uncompleted project. Ricardo was hired to help with xeriscaping my backyard October 2017. I gave him the layout with measurements and he provided a quote. He worked 5 days the first week and came back the week before Thanksgiving to complete out the rest. After a week, I noticed that the lines of the metal stakes where the retaining walls were going in were off centered and leaned to the right. I measured this and it was off of the house by 4 feet. I requested Ricardo to address and fix this issue, however, he was not happy and kept on moving forward. After the 3rd week, I requested a civil engineer (with 30 years experience) to come out to inspect the metal walls and he explained to me that none of the measurements were done correctly by Ricardo as well as the reinforcements were not up to code (all the dirt within was pushing against the metal walls and bulging out). I have requested Ricardo provide the invoices for all the materials that he has purchased for us and we haven't received any to this date. I am not one to post a bad review, especially for a small business, but I have to be honest with my experience and it was not a good one. I was willing to work with Ricardo to have him fix the metal edging and retaining wall, but he walked. He promised to come back and fix my front yard that was damaged from the tractor, but never did. Ricardo lacks the knowledge and experience for bigger projects. I highly advise against him. Anyone interested, please contact me and I will share pictures of his work. All the metal walls were not measured per the plans we gave him. Instead of a 20'x15' mulch bed, he gave us a 16'x16'. Where a 30 long 2 ft steel wall was supposed to be, he only put a 26' long wall. EVERY single side was not straight. https://statoilsrm-my.sharepoint.com/personal/soou_statoil_com/_layouts/15/guestaccess.aspx?folderid=1fc4bc9b3432e415d9629c91a07e2d185&authkey=AY4I5LpRWWfC96auNUa1OhQ&expiration=2018-03-11T17%3A52%3A49.000Z&e=375f022472a2471e86cc9f8fa5b9ea23

We started with a backyard that was essentially unusable--mostly dirt and dead grass--and ended up…read morewith a space we actually want to spend time in. They handled the full transformation: Texas native plants, fresh sod, irrigation, lighting, a new patio with poured concrete pavers, a pergola, and decking built around our above-ground pool. The result feels intentional, cohesive, and well suited to both the climate and how we use the space. We worked with their designers to develop the plan, and that process was smooth and collaborative. They listened, had good instincts, and were happy to iterate with us until the design felt right. From first contact to breaking ground took about three months, which felt reasonable given the scope. Once construction started, everything moved fast--the entire project was completed around two to three weeks. Most importantly, we're extremely happy with the outcome. The yard is beautiful and dramatically more usable than before. Jason and Nikk were a pleasure to work with throughout: friendly, proactive, communicative, with good taste and a strong sense for design. I'd happily recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade their outdoor space.

My husband James and I reached out to four different landscaping companies for a bid on a project…read moreto add gravel, place some rock along one side of our driveway, and fill a large bald spot on our lawn. While all the companies, including Southern Landscaping and Design, were nice and responsive, I feel the need to share our experience regarding their pricing. The quotes we received from the first three companies ranged between $9,000 and $11,000, which seemed reasonable for the scope of work. However, Southern Landscaping and Design came back with a quote of just over $28,000--nearly three times the amount of the other bids. I'm sure they do great work, but this level of pricing feels excessive and difficult to justify. I wanted to share this as a heads-up for anyone considering them. It's always worth getting multiple quotes to ensure you're paying a fair price.

KG Lawn Care - Turf, mulch, shrubs!

After installing our pool in 2023, I've had constant issues with dead spots in my back yard,…read morecausing me to explore the idea of installing artificial turf. I did a lot of research on artificial turf companies servicing the Brushy Creek area and after some shopping around, came across Umesh and KG Lawn Care. After receiving some ridiculous quotes from some of the "bigger" artificial turf companies, offering a lower grade of turf for a substantially higher price, I went forward with the project with Umesh and KG Lawn Care. Umesh took on my project of installing approximately 1000 sqft of artificial turf, metal edging, and black star gravel around some cypress trees. Roughly a month before starting, I expressed to Umesh my desire to have the project completed in time for our family's annual crawfish boil, which he assured me he would fulfill. I can't say enough positive things about Umesh, Lucas, and their crew. As we neared the date of my family's party, Umesh assured me that he would push to make the deadline, even with unpredictable central Texas weather. Umesh not only kept to his promise in finishing the project in time for our party, but also knocked it out of the park! The artificial turf looks incredible and instantly became my daughter's favorite place to play. Umesh and his crew put a level of detail into the project in ensuring every aspect was perfect for my family. As pleased as I am with the project itself, the most noteworthy aspect I want to highlight in this review is how Umesh does business. In a world where so many are looking to cut corners, charge more, and provide less, I found that Umesh is a man of immense integrity who keeps to his word. Umesh delivered on his promise to ensure my yard was immaculate for my family's party, but most notably, his promise on pricing. A day before our turf was set to be installed, Umesh was notified by the turf company that the turf we picked out was no longer available (with zero warning). Umesh was forced to upgrade the turf at a difference of nearly $800. I offered to split the difference with Umesh but was told: "Nah man, it's all good. I like to keep my word and pricing. It's not your fault." This really struck me that Umesh was willing to eat $800 in order to keep his word with me on pricing. KG Lawn Care exceeded my expectations and truly helped me complete my dream back yard - The quality of work and character of Umesh will have me recommending him and his company to all my family and friends!
