Rebecca M. says, "10/10! Cannot recommend enough. Alejandro was quick to respond to my inquiry and to schedule an estimate. He was punctual and forthcoming with options and pricing. He was attentive to my requests and was quick with reasonable alternatives when needed. Once work began I was impressed every step of the way. He delivered exactly what I wanted and well within my budget. I’ll be in the market for a patio extension and maybe some privacy trees soon. He’ll be my one and only call."See more

Dale B. says, "John is a personable and friendly contractor who clearly wants to do good work. He was easy to talk to and generally receptive to feedback throughout the project. Some delays were understandable due to periods of bad weather, which I appreciate are outside anyone's control. That said, the overall timeline stretched longer than expected. On several days when weather wasn't an issue, work didn't begin until mid-to late afternoon (around 2-3 pm), which contributed to the extended completion time. The final turnover of the project occurred at night, which made it difficult to properly evaluate the work together, as it was simply too dark to see all the details. There were also a few quality issues that needed follow-up. The patio installation ended up with a noticeable bow in the middle and was not fully level. Filling in the gaps completely in the pavers was completed by the owner. After the job completed, some mulch around the trees needed to be redistributed, and I also had to finish leveling dirt around a septic access port. While John was always courteous, he sometimes communicated in a way that felt like he was working through the order of operations out loud with the customer, rather then presenting a clear plan upfront. Overall, The job required more homeowner involvement and touch up work than I expected, but John's pleasant demeanor and willingness to engage are positives. With stronger planning, more consistent start times, clearer communication, and closer attention to finishing details, his work could be much improved. I included a picture of the bow in the patio and a before and after picture of the gaps in the pavers."See more

My true passion lies in trees, specifically the art of pruning fruit trees and orchards to maximize both beauty and harvest.
