This company is wonderful!! They did exactly what we asked for, and they were prompt! We had already regrettably gone with a different company for much of the work, but our yard was a massive mess of weeds. Tony was awesome to work with! I got a really good vibe from him the first time we met, so I didn't even bother checking with other companies. He is very direct and clear, and his pricing is fair! He made our yard look very clean and nice. His crew worked tirelessly to get the job done fast. What we asked for was fairly modest, but we are very happy with the clean results. We recently got a pet pig, we have a large area for him to root now where there are no weeds. We also no longer have to worry about foxtails hurting our dogs. Thank you, Tony and crew! We will definitely be calling him again for the next phase of our yard. read more

A few months ago I contacted Straight Edge Engineering about replacing worn and cracked concrete patio and walkway with pavers. Tony responded quickly, came out for a site inspection and was very responsive to concerns about utilizing the old concrete and adapting to an older house that is no longer level. Pavers went over the septic tank and marking the location of the lids was creatively addressed. I was so impressed by the speed of the two workers, their thoroughness and attention to detail! The job was completed in a fraction of the time I expected and quality of the work without fault. Tony was actively involved and listened and responded carefully to any of my questions. Yes, the project was a big investment but it couldn't have been done more professionally. My home is now 1000% more beautiful. 6 stars. read more

Tony and his crew were great! They removed old turf, graded and installed a putting green for us. We were happy with his work that we also had his team build us a small raised deck and installed a gate for the backyard. We also had him grade out little front area and put down gopher wire and decomposed granite. We will have his team out in the next few months to replace our cracked cement driveway and parts of our backyard with pavers. read more

Tony and his crew did three projects on my property and each one was perfect. They were challenged by oak trees, a neighbor's fence, and tons of marble slabs. The result is a gorgeous garden patio and walkway, side yard path , and driveway. Thank you Hector, Nestor, and Alexander for your artistry, creative problem solving. I recommend them highly read more

I'm so pleased with our new driveway! Tony and his crew did a wonderful job. I really appreciated Tony's expertise and attention to detail when we were dealing with the City of Carmel and the permit required for replacing driveways. The City is very particular in what they will allow and the permit process is tricky. Tony took the lead in meeting their requirements so all I had to do was pick out the color of pavers! I would definitely recommend Straight Edge Engr Company to anyone with hardscape needs. read more

Tony and his team did a fantastic job with our backyard. Very professional, paid a lot of attention to detail, very willing to make changes mid way through the project. Our project turned out great and was finished in a short time considering we had a lot of rainy days in between. Thank you Tony, will definately give you a call for our next project! read more

We bought this house that had a small patio area with pavers, and river rocks pretty much the rest of the way around. While the river rocks were low maintenance and nice to look at, it just wasn't practical - the puppy would chew on them and the humans would trip and stumble walking on them. We found Straight Edge here on Yelp, and Tony came out to take some measurements and emailed us a quote a couple days later. Tony was great and really listened to what we wanted, and was flexible when we wanted to add on another service at the last minute. The price was reasonable and his team worked quickly and efficiently to give our backyard a quality makeover. We originally wanted just concrete all the way around the yard, but Tony explained concrete would eventually crack, so pavers it is then! I wish I had taken more Before photos, but even then, I don't think photos would portray how different and how much more room there is now. We highly recommend Straight Edge. Thank you for all your hard work! read more

Where do I even begin?? I started my inquiry last year and wasn't ready to begin. Fast forward to now, I was ready and Tony and his team delivered 1000 times over. Tony is so easy to work with but what stands out to me most is his authenticity and love for what he does. He was so patient with all of my questions and believe me, I had a lot. Even for a smaller project like mine, he approached it as if it were a larger project. He offered suggestions which was super helpful since I wasn't exactly sure how I wanted everything to be. His two man crew works harder than probably 5 people combined. I honestly couldn't believe how hard and fast they work. Their attention to detail is beyond perfection. I wanted a zero maintenance backyard with a putting green and it is so perfect. Thank you Tony and thank you to your amazing team!! I will be referring you to everyone. read more

We literally had about a dozen contractors come over to our residence for quotes... It got to the point where I was getting exhausted, forgetting who was coming over, almost double booking appointments, and just losing interest. After narrowing down the contractors to 2-3 I was in the process of going with someone else other than Straight Edge, but something about that contractor didn't sit well with me. It was the lack of communication. Even though their price was less the lack of communication was a definite red flag. In my opinion sometimes going the cheaper route is not always the best route to take. So I canceled and went with my gut, and I am so glad I did. Tony with Straight Edge was outstanding! He responded promptly to our questions, gave us detailed description of costs, provided an exact start and finish date (finished sooner than expected), gave us a cash discount, and overall was just a joy to do business with. We had to remove a good amount of pea gravel from our side walkway from the previous homeowners which started to become an issue as our little one (2 yr. old) had started to put the gravel pieces in his mouth and laugh about it. Smh... So the gravel had to go!! One side we had half pavers and half pea gravel and on the other side weeds for days. The thing about weeds is that if not maintained on a monthly, to bi- monthly, to bi-annual basis can get out of control pretty fast and that's no fun at all. So the weeds had to go!! Fast forward to the start date. Tony's guys were right on time and went to work. These guys got down. They didn't ask for anything. No bathroom breaks (although I let them know it was okay if they needed to). It was pretty hot so I sporadically went out there and gave them some water/gatorades each day. Roughly 3 days later the job was done and the results were outstanding. In addition to adding pavers that matched the existing pavers, we had them add polymeric sand to the entire property in other areas where we had pavers to just make the area look clean and polished. Lastly, we had Tony extend our concrete out where our front patio is and bring up the drain. Everything went smooth and we could not be happier with the results. We see why their called Straight Edge because the cuts on the pavers were precise and tight. Excellent job to Tony and his crew. Highly recommend! read more

I had a very positive experience with Tony and his crew. They were professional, on time, hardworking, and had attention to detail. We had the majority of our backyard hardscape redone with concrete. Tony's crew removed trees, removed old pavers, old concrete, and redesigned the backyard. From my very rough drawing Tony made it come to life! Great guy and great company! read more

Tony and his crew removed our old, cracked concrete driveway, hauled away the mess and replaced it with an attractive cobblestone drive, installing a drainage system at the same time.

Quick response addressing described job specifically. Found lower cost option for this very small job but will check back with them on my next project. read more

Really fantastic work. Tony, the owner, was involved closely in every facet of the design, material procurement and work scheduling for the project. This project involved demolition of concrete, moving and compacting soil for drainage, 300 square feet of pavers, CURVED walk and CURVED step, and even a CUSTOM REDWOOD FENCE! The price was very nice and every part of the job was done to perfection. It looks AMAZING! We went from having the crappiest front yard on our street to curbside appeal to be envied. Tony's guys were very professional and worked quickly but with a skill and precision that was impressive to behold. I can't recommend Straight Edge Engineering enough. read more

I'm very satisfied working with Straight Edge Engineering. He always listened to what I wanted in my project and helped making it happened. He communicated well throughout the project. He would do what he said. He built a retaining wall, concrete pad and red wood deck with reasonable price. I love sitting on my deck everyday. I look forward to working with him again in the future. Thank you Tony! :) read more

We had a paver and property divider wall projects that needed be completed. We called a number of vendors. Tony of Straight Edge Engineering was one of those vendors. We looked at his Yelp reviews, which was positive. His quote was reasonable. We decided to use Tony's company. Work was started, which required removing a few inches of dirt, and old irrigation/drain piping, and the old fence. They reset the pipes for irrigation and drainage. Placement was important, for the new fence line that was to be installed. Tony and his crew worked with us to make sure that the project was as we had envisioned. This project also included a couple of difficulties, which Tony and Hector were able to resolve, at a reasonable price. He was very easy to work with. We also had a 20 foot Roman Stone wall done in a couple levels, that will hold a PVC fence line. It came out just beautiful. Despite the weather delays, they were able to complete the work in 4 days. Tony was in constant contact with us throughout this project. We were very pleased. Thank you Tony, Hector & Javier for your excellent work. We'll definitely use Tony for any other projects in the future. read more

Tony did a big project on our backyard. His guys worked super fast and he did an amazing job. Thank you Tony!

Asked for a bid and put flexible time frame for the project to start.... Got a message back less then ten minutes later that the time frame will not work and they could not provide service.... But the time frame said flexible? Guess they don't want any business. read more

I can't express how happy I am with my new walkway. It looks amazing. Tony and his team were able to start the project right away and finished the job in less than 3 days. I just can't believe how much better my yard looks. I will be hiring them again when it comes time to redo my patio. read more

Two thumbs up for Tony and his crew. I had recently completed some work on a paver project at my house and had enough left over to expand my driveway but my contractor was off to his next job. Tony was working in my neighborhood, and doing some beautiful work so I asked him to bid on my very small job. His bid seemed reasonable so, as promised, two days later his friendly and professional crew did the work, quickly and cleanly. read more

Called Tony after seeing his Yelp reviews. Tony came out and gave me a very fair bid for some concrete work and running some electrical conduit. The project was delayed due to rain but Tony kept in constant contact. Tony completed the job on time and his crew did a great job. I had one minor issue that I brought to his attention and he fixed it immediately. Tony is ethical, reasonable, and does great work. Nice to find a local contractor who cares about his work product. I will most definitely use him again!! Thanks Tony for the great job you guys did. read more

Tony the owner is probably the most honest contractor I've ever met. He helped me from designing and choosing of the pavers and made my budget worked for my backyard project. He gave me a lot of great ideas and even took me the pavers place in Gilroy and showed me different options on how my pavers would match my retaining wall. I wanted to run my own water, gas and electric piping and he helped me dug the trench. I was also a little picky and added a few things in the middle of the process but he was very patient with me and accommodated with all the add-ons. I can't say enough about his customer service. His crew were always on time and finished the project as promised. He was recommended by a couple of my neighbors and I would highly recommend him to anyone that's looking for any backyard projects or upgrades. Thanks again Tony and I will definitely call you again for any projects in the future. read more

I would highly recommend Tony and his team. They did a wonderful job at my newly constructed home in Gilroy. I had roughly 1800 sq feet of pavers installed from the front of my house to the back and side yards. I had many questions along the way and a few adds and changes throughout my project. Tony was more than reasonable with the cost and was very responsive to all my needs. I have recommended him to my next door neighbor as well. They have also completed at least 3 or 4 other projects in my neighborhood that came out great. Thanks for all the effort and hard work you guys put into my home. read more

We highly recommend Tony and his team for your project. They completed the project for us - beautiful detail work, very reasonable cost, good experience working with them, responsive and professional. They installed over 1,000 sq ft stone pavers, build our outdoor kitchen island that included the kitchen sink/plumbing, power burner, stainless steel cabinet doors, cut remnant granites to put together the beautiful island counter tops, extended and replaced side window with a patio fiberglass door, yard water irrigation, and installed a side gate. It was a big job, and thank you for the good experience without any issue encountered in the project, and our full satisfaction and appreciation for the well done job!

Tony and his team put in a new 1,000 sq ft paver patio in our backyard in Morgan Hill. Tony worked with my wife and I to come up with a design and very quickly his guys were onsite and starting to demo the area to prepare for the new retaining wall, stairs, patio and seating area. We made some changes along the way and Tony worked with us to update his quote and adjust the plans. Tony is very nice and easy to work with. He met us at the rockery to select stones and helped to order everything so all we had to do was give the rockery our payment info. I have already recommended Tony and Straight Edge Engineering to some of my co-workers that are interested in updating their landscaping. We would definitely work with him again on any future patio or walkway updates we do to our home. read more
