"Outstanding. Great attention to detail and eye for beautiful layout of rocks. Very professional and customer service focused. Ike and his men were great."
"I recently hired Just Stamping Concrete for a landscaping project, and I must say that I was blown away by their work. Their team is highly skilled and knowledgeable, and they truly transformed my outdoor space into a beautiful oasis."
"Andy was recommended by my former general contractor after a redwood tree damaged my old driveway. Of all the bids I received, I chose Andy for his fair pricing and thorough explanations about handling roots, permits, and timelines. He was responsive, professional, and treated the job like it was his own home.
I hired him again for a concrete slab at my new house, and once again, he exceeded expectations—fixing pavers, adjusting the slope, and even resolving a subfloor issue before pouring. Andy is honest, detail-oriented, and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend!"
"Robert and his team were professional and meticulous while working on our driveway project. They finished the work in a timely manner and now after almost 1 year I'm still as pleased with the result. They were efficient and did very little disruption to surrounding area, I would definitely recommend Top Grade Paving to my friends.”"
"Very professional project proposal, design and references. Excellent value from a contractor that's well established in the local community. Project was completed and met all project milestones. On-site crew was very responsive to design changes, and applied best practices to improve on the prior concrete surface layout and design. I'm confident the resulting concrete driveway and walkways will serve us well for many years."
"Scott McIntyre did an excellent job landscaping our backyard. After an original hiccup about following up on irrigation service (slow response), Scott really stepped up to the plate and helped me in resolving all our irrigation issues."
"Brian was great. Very responsive, polite, and professional and knowledgeable. I ended up going with a family friend otherwise I would have hired him. Very fair price!!"

You can use a pressure washer to clean a whole host of surfaces. The exterior siding of your house is one of the most popular spots, as well as your driveway, garage floor, patio or deck, and even your outdoor furniture. Just be mindful about the amount of pressure you apply to different materials—concrete can handle a lot more than wood, for example.
Deciding whether to buy or rent a pressure washer depends on your budget and how often you plan to use it.
Renting: The daily rental cost typically ranges from $40 to $175. Renting can be more cost-effective for a one-time project.
Buying: The purchase price for a pressure washer can range from $100 to over $1,000. More specifically, electric models generally cost between $100 and $400, while gas models run from $300 to $600.
If you anticipate using a pressure washer multiple times a year, buying one is often a better long-term investment. When purchasing, remember that a higher-quality machine will likely deliver better and more reliable results.
When hiring a professional to pressure wash your home, it's crucial to choose a company that is bonded, licensed, and insured. This protects you from liability if any accidents or property damage occur during the service; otherwise, the cost could fall on you. Before making a decision, vet at least three different contractors. Conduct thorough research by reading customer reviews, looking at examples of their previous work, and verifying the company's license. Before signing a contract, ensure you receive a written estimate that details all project costs. It's also wise to ask potential contractors a series of questions to gauge their professionalism and experience, such as:
How many years of experience do you have?
What are your credentials?
What cleaning methods do you use?
Do you have a workmanship warranty and insurance?
What is your availability?
What is your policy if you damage my property?
How long will the job take to complete?
How much do you charge?
What is your cancellation policy?
Do you offer a customer satisfaction guarantee or any additional services?
Experts typically recommend pressure washing your driveway at least once per year to keep it looking great while preventing stains, cracks, and unwanted vegetation. However, if your driveway gets a lot of use, you might want to pressure wash it more often to keep it looking like new.
