Steve T.

When my wife and I purchased our home in Folsom, one of our top priorities was the backyard. While the house was once a showcase yard, years of neglect and foreclosure had left it in a sad state. At almost a third acre, with varying terrain, and an existing pool, we had some challenges on our vision. Our vision was to have a yard that felt like a vacation, and priorities were drought-tolerance, low maintenance, and we wanted to do alot of the work ourselves. We hired a well-known local landscape design & construction company to complete the design, which we were very happy with. However, the "turn key" cost of the design was approximately $60,000. We knew we wanted to do a lot of the work ourselves, and "value engineered" the design to get the costs aligned with our budget. We took our drawings to several highly rated contractors for bids, and broke out the scopes of work such as concrete for separate bids. Ryan McConnell, owner of Turfman, came to my attention from a coworker who recently completed a project with him. Our original intent was to have him bid only the irrigation and sod, however when we met with Ryan he convinced us to let him bid the entire project. Ryan promptly provided an estimate, which was broken down thoroughly so we could decide what items to add or delete to meet our budget. Ryan bid the concrete portion of the project (approximately 1,200 sf of stamped colored concrete) which I honestly did not expect him to have competitive pricing. His quote from his subcontractor beat the other four estimates I had, and included alot of extras which others did not. In the end, I decided to have Turfman install all drainage, walls, concrete, sod, and irrigation per the drawings I had completed for nearly a third of the original budget. We held off on installing the planting (the least expensive part of the project actually) until next year due to budget concerns. Ryan has no problem breaking the project down to whatever size needed. Ryan is the owner of the company and very responsive, patient, creative, and reliable. He does what he says he is going to do, when he says he will do it. What impressed me most is his work ethic, and his employees. All his employees are people you feel comfortable with on your property, and are respectable and clean up after themselves. it's not uncommon to see Ryan himself on your project with a shovel and broom working alongside them. Ryan's company, Turfman, is not a huge company like many others in town, so you get the direct attention of the company owner. I highly recommend him, and will be working with him again in the future for additional landscape planting.

Very happy with the turf installed at my house. The job was on the upper slope of my backyard and irregular shape. The install was done in 3 days from start to finish. My parents liked the workmanship and decided to have them install turf at his house with a similar positive experience and outcome.

Stamped Concrete

Ryan, Jake and their crew are all amazing! My mom said best landscaping she has seen. My husband and I agree! They did most of our new neighborhood for a reason. Not only did they have fair pricing, their quality and speed was surprising. The concrete stamping is beautiful. And the drain system worked since there was not one small puddle, even after heavy rain. I highly recommend them. They also know how to work with HOAs.

The Turf Man, Ryan McConnel, remodeled our back yard almost 3 years ago. His foresight shows through in the way our yard has developed and matured over that time. The space has knit together. It is multi-layered in height and depth and as the select plants have grown there have been various spaces created to add our own little personalized details of seating areas and ornaments. The lighting system Ryan installed is dramatic and seemingly bullet proof. It is also very economical and easy to adjust. He also installed an irrigation system that was expandable. The watering system feeds all the plants that were installed at the remodel (about 32- we only lost 3) and we have continued what he set up for us, a second system to feed our raised beds vegetable garden in an area the Turf Man set aside specifically for that purpose. It was and has been a great experience.

My beautiful yard!

We just had our front yard completely redone by The Turf Man. I had contacted them over a year ago but dragged my feet on getting this done. Ryan understood my vision and had fantastic ideas. He and his crew were friendly, professional and did everything in a timely matter. The materials they use are top of the line and the concrete job was truly a work of art. But the magic is their turf work!! They answered my endless questions and left the jobsite always clean! My yard is perfect! A show stopper!

my backyard before The Turf Man came to help!

Ryan and his crew are amazing!!! they are extremely professional and obviously take pride in their work. A few months ago I decided I was going to do a Owner Managed pool build with the assistance of another local business. Basically the proposal was that this company would provide me with the pool design and required plans to get a permit thru the county, as well as bids from the subcontractors I would then need to work with along the way to complete my pool construction. Basically I would then act as the General contractor, organize scheduling, schedule required inspections etc. Some of the contractors I worked with were ok some were horrible but they all had one thing in common, they were there to do the least amount of work possible to get paid. They left my property looking a mess and several key issues with the build were not addressed by anyone since "it wasn't in their bid/scope of work". (drainage & irrigation... WHICH ARE PRETTY DANG IMPORTANT) I was beginning to feel overwhelmed like I had bitten off more than I could chew. Here I sat with a gigantic hole in my yard and no clear end in site. That's when The Turf Man stepped in... Ryan came over to my mess of a yard with a calm, positive attitude and an immediate plan to get my project finished. He provided a reasonable bid and stuck to it. He and his crew were on time, professional and more than willing to talk thru the project with me every step of the way. Now my family and I are happily enjoying our amazing yard. I HIGHLY RECOMEND YOU USE THEM FOR YOUR NEXT PROJECT.

See all

Was able to get my gutters tied to the drain and connected all flowed out to the front. Also was able to get my driveway extended.

What went well?????!! EVERYTHING!!…read more I had been wanting to transform an area of my front yard by my front porch for over 20 years that was next to my long sidewalk. the area was filled with dirt, huge hedges, and a short row of smaller hedges and a few otter plants. As I got older, they were a PITA to maintain and THE WEEDS!!! They were a nightmare! So, I saw ads about this company and decided to get an estimate to turn this ugly, weed garden into my dream courtyard (hopefully). They made me a quick appointment that fit my schedule and sent out the coolest, most professional and accommodating, friendly guy, Jim. Jim spent time with us, showing us the product they use and beautiful catalogs on both the paver choices and the sitting wall styles. He listened to my idea of how I wanted the project to look and gave me the perfect courtyard plan that he knew would make me happy. I had already purchased a big arbor I wanted integrated into my courtyard's opening, and he assured me it would be accommodated. He was the best salesman I've ever had come to the house and he gave me a really great quote as well in the cost! The crew who came out met with me on the first day of the project (along with the Project Manager. Mr. Gomez (who is simply amazing!). And they went over what they were going to be doing that day and how long they predicted the project would take to complete. Well, they worked on our project for three days and worked very hard and did everything exactly the way I wanted it and actually installed the arbor to perfection!!! They cleaned up exceptionally well and were so amazing to work with, and I owe it all to them to make my dream come true!! I highly , highly recommend this stellar company to make YOUR yard aspirations and dreams come true!!! I can't say enough great things about these people and the work they do!!! Thank you!! I'm over the moon!

Called the office and Adam came out a couple of days later to inspect our lawn and give us a quote. After talking to a few other local vendors, we decided to go with FENIX and we are really pleased we did. Adam, Kimberley and Erica communicated really well and answered any question we had about the entire process. They provided us with a few turf samples as well as an extensive list of referral addresses we could use to inspect their craftsmanship and the quality of the installed turf product. When the day to start the project arrived, Dylan and the large crew arrived right on time as arranged and immediately got to work. They were very professional and skilled. They were able to complete the entire project in one day and cleaned up the "worksite" nicely. We are extremely happy with the entire process from start to finish and would use them again if needed and would highly recommend them if you were considering installing artificial turf for your landscaping project. Not only was the craftsmanship top notch, the value was exceptional as FENIX provided us with the lowest price of all the quotes we received.

We started with what was to be a straight forward driveway replacement. Old cracked/cast in place cement being replaced with pavers. Travis recommended lights and we agreed that was worthwhile based on the scope of what was being done, and this being something we will look at every day, multiple times per day. The pavers were also going to be extended to the front door replacing an additional old sidewalk. We didn't want the least expensive contractor. We wanted someone that was reasonably priced, who would stand behind their work. Bella Rosa is that company. The project turned out better than expected. The lights are icing on the cake. The pavers look phenomenal. All that said, there were a few hiccups along the way. Miscommunications on Bella Rosa's side related to what was discussed initially, and when the crew came out for installation. However, Travis always quick to reply, prompt to meet to work through the details and we were very satisfied. As the front was nearing completion we were so confident in Travis's team, Freddy was the foreman on our project, we added on additional things to the original scope. Including, redoing a flagstone walkway, cleaning out a side yard area, removing a layer of soil, adding stabilized decomposed granite, putting in lights along a back fence line. We can't recommend Bella Rosa highly enough. Travis and his team do very good work. And, when things come up, which is normal in construction, they will stand by their work and resolve any unexpected things. These are projects we could've DIY'd, but the result would not have looked as good, and would've required many months to complete.

I was very pleased with their work. Ryan was very patient with me throughout the process. I highly…read morerecommend this company.
