"Our experience working with Dean Hawthorne of Hawthorne Masonry was 100% positive! He was totally reliable and knowledgable. He had great design suggestions. Everything went as planned...he was a pleasure to work with. He truly cares about making you happy with his work. We would be happy to work with him again, & we would recommend him to anyone!"

"I hired Gregory to build a new decking. He did a great job. He is honest and very hardworking. His craftsmanship is high quality. And his prices are very fair and reasonable."

"Taking on a backyard renovation can be overwhelming. I contacted a few companies before I spoke with Steve from Coastal Pavers. We scheduled a time to meet and he was very professional, punctual and even sent over a rendering of the layout. The price was fair and his crew and project manager Fernando finished ahead of schedule. There were a few adjustments I was able to make a long the way and luckily it did not effect the completion date. The pavers and turf look beautiful and I have peace of mind knowing the quality and craftsman will last for decades. I highly recommend Coastal Pavers and will be using them again."

"Evan (Halls Concrete) is punctual, affable, detail-oriented, efficient, and as a Subject Matter Expert; Evan has extremely talented skills. Evan gave me a very reasonable job bid, to lay my gravel driveway, and pour my 25 foot long x 15 foot wide x 4 inches thick storage shed concrete foundation. Evan explained every phase, and detail, of the projects' time-lines. I asked many questions. Evan answered my questions completely, which assured me my gravel driveway, and concrete foundation pour projects were being trusted to the right contractor. Evan emphasized that "No job is too small". He treated my backyard projects with professional passion, ingenuity, precision, and skill. A great looking gravel driveway, and concrete foundation, are the result produced by Halls Concrete."

"The landscape designer provided creative and practical ideas for our outdoor space. We are thrilled with the end result!"

"I wanted decorative rocks to cover bare dirt in my backyard. The job was done quickly, at a fair price, and to my satisfaction. I have asked Juan to come back to do landscape maintenance on the property on a regular basis."

"TLDR: Kent is a talented artist who has mastered i. the fine line in landscaping between aesthetics and practical use and ii. the rare and valuable business skill of being customer-centric. We had a big job with his team and we were so happy with the end result and the relationship we built along the way that I promised Kent a review that came from the heart - it's a bit long but here it goes. My first impression of Kent was of an artist and a very-talented one at that - bringing vision and experience to the table. My family had just bought a new house in the perfect canyon lot we always wanted, but the house needed some TLC. We wanted to transform our front and backyard into something that corresponded to our dream backyard for the next 10-20 years for our kids to grow up and enjoy in. Although we had some idea of what we wanted, we were certainly not landscaping experts and several of our ideas were quite rough around the edges. We needed someone who was flexible to our vision but could help us connect the dots on how to get there taking into account practical application and aesthetics. Kent did just that. His first time over he spent time aligning with us on our vision and he professionally called out some of the flaws in our thinking. We recognized a lot of what he said made sense and started to mold our vision around some of those insights. To solidify the idea, he brought out his sketch book and literally drew his vision for our backyard in two sketches (sounds corny, but frankly - it showed his artistry excellence and care for the customer). Once that was done and we aligned on the game plan - Kent and his team started immediately within the next 2-3 days. It was quite a thing to watch his team of 10-20 employees at any given day tear ad rebuild my backyard within 2-3 weeks. At a high-level, Kent's scope of work was as follows: - demo'd old concrete/pavers and re-poured new colored concrete - demo'd old patio cover and installed a giant alumawood patio cover - moved a ton of dirt around with an excavator to re-level the area behind our backyard - re-did drainage to stop water from pooling/staining concrete (as it was before) - removed several trees and ground the stumps (some over 70 ft tall!) - installed new queen and multi-trunked king palms - installed planters with low-maintenance plants (succulents, ice plants, etc) and new stations for the automated drip system - Built our barrel sauna for us and ran new 220V electrical line - installed a section of artificial sod that looked gorgeous As you can imagine from the size of the project, there were some snags that happened along the way: an accidental broken window, a structural issue with the patio cover, concrete discoloration due to the wildly rainy season we had in March-April, among some other minor items. However, what impressed me the most is how if you give Kent and team the chance to fix it, they WILL fix it. Although discussions on such snags and remedying it are never usually straight-forward, in the end what really mattered to me is that Kent showed the ownership to set us - as his customers up for success - owned up to those snags being his responsibility and remedied it with professionalism and always remaining customer-centric. I appreciate Kent and his son - Kacen - very much and very much plan to work with them on future projects in the near future."

"David installed a 25' block and stucco wall to replace our tract home fencing. This included a walled cutout in our slope to hide our trash carts. Top-notch craftsmanship. David provided several suggestions during planning than made for a high-quality finished job. Because we widened the gate by about a foot, we needed to modify the used brick walkway. David came up with a way to widen the walkway using existing brick. Project was completed on the target end date, despite a couple of delays. David was very helpful coordinating with our neighbor so our new wall aligned with their new fence. Highly recommend!"

"Emily and her crew did such an amazing job on our front yard! They installed pavers, lighting and new landscaping. We would HIGHLY recommend her! Emily was a pleasure to work with. She’s highly professional and talented. Thank you again for making our front yard look amazing!!"

"Noe came to our house the day I initiated my search. He completed the job in fewer days than projected! He removed old concrete, installed pavers and cleaned up afterwards - it looks great, plus his bid was lower than others’."
