My wife and I have been wanting to make out back yard nicer for a couple months and we recently had…read morethe opportunity to utilize this company. They had done our friend's back yard and I was really impressed by the quality of the work. They were super responsive in coming out to our house to measure the area, show us the paver options and schedule us. They were able to knock out in a day a patio that was 12x20 and it looks excellent. The price was fair/reasonable and there was a clear understanding of the prep work going into the site. Can't go wrong with these people!

Maicon of Solo Pavers was very responsive. He came out to our house, measured, talked to us about…read moreoptions, and gave us a very competitive estimate a day or two after our meeting. We would have gone with Solo Pavers but, unfortunately, we had conflicting schedules. But we give Solo Pavers an A+ on the front end, helping us decide what we wanted/needed for replacing our driveway.

Sio was responsive and flexible from the get go. Price was very competitive and one of the lowest I can find. He had great/quick communication which for jobs like these is like 25% of the battle. There is nothing worse than dealing with contractors that randomly ghosts you! You won't have to worry about that with Sio and his team. They were early every day of the job, and they were patient and always explained things to me thoroughly. I was really happy with the job and my neighbors all had good things to say about their work! I would call them up again if I ever need help again!

D Garcia Landscaping completed a large fence project for us and we are extremely happy with the…read moreresults! This was a technically challenging project involving a steep hill and very mature redwood roots. Standout qualities of this company are: 1. Ease of quoting process Before coming out in person, they were able to give us a ballpark price based on dimensions, fence type, and site images. This allowed me to decide whether to move forward and I thought this was really respectful of my time. Then, Dago, the owner, came for the site visit and to discuss details. 2. No bait and switch In ironing out the details, there was some miscommunication about whether staining was included. Dago was able to meet us halfway with the price increase. This honest business style continued throughout the project and no change orders or unexpected price increases happened. 3. Detail oriented Throughout the project, we discussed details such as fence posts placement relative to tree roots, post height, etc. Dago was both available in person and by email via his assistant Maria. It was also nice to have responses confirmed in writing so that things were clear and there would be no bait and switch. 4. Personality Dago is a really nice person and I enjoy speaking with his about his geriatric dogs, etc. This also helped me not feel anxious about the project, because I felt that I could trust him. For this fence, we received multiple quotes. Two companies were in the $9-10K range, another was around $12K, and an outlier was above $20K. Dago's price was the lowest quote (with minute differences in material) and we are very glad we went with him!

Work needed: - major clean-up of our front and back yards - fencing between multiple neighbors - adding grass and new sprinklers to the front yard - adding turf to the rear yard - about 30+ plants to multiple areas + mulch Dago's team was very efficient in their work and always kept us updated on progress. It was amazing to watch the work get done and see the transformation over just under 2 weeks of work. I'm very impressed and recommend them to anyone looking for this type of work. I would absolutely use them again in the future. Thanks so much!

It ended up being a decent size job, with a fair amount of digging for the drains and demo of the old stairs, took a couple weeks to complete the job. Nate was a pleasure to work with, responsive, had great ideas about how to tackle the job, and his pricing was totally fair. Most importantly, as you can see from the pictures, they did excellent work. Finally, they stood behind their work, a few cracks showed up maybe 6 months after the job (100% not their fault, we deal with a driveway that shifts a ton from the weight of a steep slope we are on) and they repaired the cracks no questions asked and free of charge. I know he does jobs much larger than this but he never made our job feel insignificant or unimportant, and followed through like a true pro. I'd use him or recommend him again, no question.

The finished backyard looks excellent and the quality of the construction appears high. Vanessa specifically provided excellent, white-glove service throughout the entirety of the project and was super responsive to all of our communication. We did have a number of issues arise with the crew (mainly excessive dust seeping into our house and trash being left behind on the neighbor's property line), as well as the accounting department (an accidental attempt at overcharging us), but Vanessa always did an excellent job of troubleshooting these issues and helping to guide everybody towards a resolution. She also worked diligently on our backyard design and expertly guided us through several iterations and unexpected construction issues. I highly recommend working with Vanessa and Black Diamond Pavers.

We are very happy with All Seasons Construction. They dug and built-out French drains with…read moreperforated pipe, drain gravel (lots and lots of drain gravel!), fabric and impermeable barriers on the foundation side. They also tied in our downspouts to separate solid PVC pipes. Finally, they installed surface drains and poured new patio cement. For the cement, they offered a wide variety of colors. During the bidding / quote process, Jeremy was courteous and took the time to clearly explain different options. He responded promptly to follow-up questions. The on-site crew was great with Miguel and Lazaro leading the team. This was a difficult project requiring a lot of manual work as a hillside made it impossible to bring down heavy machinery for digging the trenches or hauling out the old asphalt and concrete. Nevertheless, they completed the project in two weeks including working a Saturday. In addition, we had them pour a concrete slab in a basement crawl space. We only asked for a basic slab. They went above and beyond by building out a small retaining wall at its back and tied it into the foundation with rebar.
