Shafiaq Khouli and his SK Concrete team built on our back yard a 14' x 14' SPA niche including a…read more12' x 12' x 5" reinforced concrete pad, foundation, drainage, three sides surrounding half high retaining walls and embedded SPA electrical wiring conduit. They also installed footing drain (French drain) on the back retaining wall, backfilled with the usual gravel, crushed stone and covered the outside of the walls with installed paneled stone veneer. They also did the initial former structure demolition, debris hauling and the requested earth moving and other necessary small retaining walls reassembly. It sounds like an easy simple job but, believe me, it got complicated quite soon. Along the construction way, I was able to interact with the crew and bounce ideas and corrections which were followed to my customer satisfaction, resulting in more than a very acceptable final product. When the inevitable, beyond his control, the one odd crew helper misbehavior occurred on the job, this contractor immediately corrected it, got on top of the problem and smoothly and quickly we had no more of an issue here. He also facilitated for me the customer to bring my own tile / stone wall-caps products and installer guys, which ended doing a beautiful job we're very proud of. Pricing fair, not inexpensive. Job done acceptable, with your own (the customer) continuous supervision and being able to stop working crew's irreparable mistakes before they happened, however, the final product came out well built and functional as we imagined and expected, we are grateful for that. Thanks again to Shafiaq and SK Concrete for accepting working on our small home project and for including us in their busy commercial and industrial schedule.

Some clarifications:…read more -Equipment was stored on my property last job. Paying 2 man hours of labor for daily pick up of equipment that is already on project site makes no sense to me. -My agreed upon labor rates never included travel time. -SK concrete wanted to do second project without a written contract initially. When pressed by me to have a written contract, he initiated a different one than I had agreed upon. It is for these reasons I write this yelp review. I had hoped I had found a consistent, reliable concrete contractor who practices his or her trade using written agreed upon contracts in a timely manner for my present and future projects. Sadly, my opinion is that I haven't with SK Concrete.

A&F Concrete did an excellent job installing a 20' sidewalk and a very nice 5x5 foot masonry wall…read more As instructed, San Diego Buff concrete was used for the sidewalk. I was given an excellent variety of bricks/blocks to choose for the wall, and the one I chose was competently installed. I was pleased to note the block I chose would be sourced from RCP in Chula Vista, where I have been a regular customer. The two workers agreed to relocate the existing pavers for my reuse as part of the original job. I really appreciated that. Although I was in no hurry, the job was completed quite expeditiously with the exception of the iron gate, the installation of which was subcontracted (and reviewed separately). The final results please me immensely. A&F solved a major problem, and I recommend the company to all.

We found and hired Minez Concrete for a retaining wall project, and I can honestly say this has…read morebeen the best experience we've ever 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 large drainage 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 every step of the way. He took the time to explain the entire 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. Since writing my original review, we have now completed a second and third retaining wall project with Minez Concrete, including permits, county inspections, engineering plans, and a much more complicated shared easement situation -- and our opinion of Oswaldo and his crew is even higher now. This second project involved a failing retaining wall, drainage issues, county permit requirements, neighbor access coordination, and difficult easement issues that became very complicated throughout the process. Oswaldo was extremely knowledgeable about the permit pulling process from start to finish and handled everything for us. He coordinated directly with the county, helped navigate the easement issues, and made sure every step was completed correctly. Our project also required engineered plans, and Oswaldo was able to connect us with an engineer quickly and help coordinate that process as well, which made an extremely stressful situation much easier for us. Throughout the entire project, Oswaldo stayed calm, professional, honest, and solution-oriented. He consistently communicated with us and helped navigate issues that went far beyond what most contractors would normally deal with. The finished wall came out beautiful, straight, and incredibly solid. We passed final inspection, and the workmanship truly speaks for itself. What impressed us most was that even during difficult situations, Oswaldo still took extra care to preserve surrounding structures and keep everything as functional and clean as possible throughout construction. Finding a contractor you can genuinely trust is rare, and we feel incredibly lucky we found Minez Concrete. We would hire them again without hesitation and highly recommend them to anyone needing retaining wall, concrete, masonry, drainage, or permit-related work. Truly an outstanding company and crew. 100 stars!!!!

It's rare to find a company that delivers both great customer service and top-quality work, but Greenturf Pro nailed it. If you're considering turf installation, don't hesitate to go with Green Turf Pro. Worth every penny!

Unfortunately, that company refused to redo the job, and the legal process is still ongoing. After all of that, I found Green Turf Pro and hired them to completely redo the job, and I am very glad I did. One of the biggest things that stood out to me was that they do not outsource the work to random subcontractors. They use their own employees, and it shows in the quality, professionalism, and attention to detail. They did everything the way it should have been done from the beginning, and I have had no issues. We can finally enjoy our backyard the way we wanted to and actually use it for volleyball, badminton, and just having a great time outside. Thank you so much, Green Turf Pro, for making it happen

The space required some creativity to figure out the best way to make it work and Art did a great job explaining his ideas to us and how much everything would cost. He did such a good job that we asked if he could quote on doing another section of our yard before he finished the driveway. We were able to do both areas for less that what either of the other landscaping/masonry companies quoted us for just the driveway. Art also did a good job managing our expectations on timing and continued to answer questions after the job was done. I would definitely recommend Tarantino Masonry to any homeowner in the San Diego area.
