The painting process went on as scheduled. Rick and his crew did a tremendous job painting the house. We've already received several compliments. We had one wall that had ivy all over it several years ago. We took off the ivy but the brown remnants remained stuck to the stucco. Rick and the crew powerwashed like crazy and then took scrub brushes to it. Then they painted three coats instead of just two. You can't tell that there was ever any ivy on that wall. We had a couple small touch ups that Rick promptly made another trip out to correct. He was very professional and courteous and even offered tips for a DIY project I was about to start. Overall, it was a great experience and I would recommend them. The only negative I had was the price. Out of five bids, they were the most expensive. But I guess like anything else, you get what you pay for. Unfortunately, since this was my first experience I have nothing else to compare it to. But I do know that I got a good quality job with CertaPro.

We had very high hopes when we first met the owners. Unfortunately, our experience in working with them was one of the most disappointing we've ever had. When we first met with Ponz R Us, they showed us a computer-designed plan for the pond that included a beautiful finish and landscaping. However, when we asked for a copy of the plan, we were given an excuse that "they had printing problems." I then asked if they could email us the design - that we would like to consider the plan and perhaps make some changes. Again, we were denied. And this is after we had given them a $600 deposit. We came to learn that the owner doesn't actually build ponds based on specific plans/blue prints. Rather, he claims that he is "an artist," and that he creates a custome design onsite. He said that he would work with us to make sure we got the pond we wanted, but that turned out not to be true. His actual time on-site was limited to no more than 2 hours on the first day and 10 minutes or less the next two days. This company tries to do everyting on the cheap. His hard-working crew were nice young men, but completely inexperienced. The most senior guy had 1 1/2 years of experience. The newest guy told me he had been "flipping burgers" until about 6 months earlier. We had communicated multiple times to the owner that we had a specific style and look that we wanted for our pond. We even showed him numerous photos of other ponds - attempting to communicate visually what we wanted. He gave us a lot of lip service that he could/would work with us, but then completely ignored our requests. For example, we wanted a more formal/finished look - with graceful flat stones surrounding the edge. Instead, he had the crew throw cheap gravel over the liner edge and claim it was complete. Within days of the construction being "complete" we discovered a leak in the pond. We were losing 3-4 inches of water a day. It took a week for the owner to even acknowledge that we had a leak - he tried to brush us off by saying the problem was caused by "the splash factor" from the waterfall. I called several other pond contractors to ask if this was possible. They all laughed and said "no way." Every company we talked to also told us about the poor reputation Ponz R Us has within the industry. Several people rolled their eyes and said that they frequently receive calls from unhappy Ponz R Us customers. Ponz R Us also failed to tell us that we needed to install a UV light filtration system to prevent algae. Our water started to turn green within days of the leak being fixed. We finally had to hire another pond company to install the UV light. Bottom line - don't hire this company!

The job entailed interior painting of our upstairs master bedroom and bath, second upstairs bath, hallway, and stairwell. We also had them touch up some poorly painted trim in the other upstairs bedrooms that we had painted ourselves. Also included was caulking work around our shower, bathtub, and three bathrooms sinks. They went above and beyond to touch up a downstairs wall and chipped corners that weren't even part of the estimate.

Everything took a lot longer than it should have taken. He used some unskilled workers and some fairly skilled. The work by the unskilled workers was poor. When they enclosed our closet they did not roof it right away. It was winter and it leaked and water was pouring into the closet which resulted in puddles on the floor. A part of the wall got warped because of the rain and they just put screws into it to flatten it out as opposed to replacing it.
We had them remove a sliding glass door to enclose it and make it into a window and at the same time replace the window next to it. That window is next to exterior steps and should have been safety glass so it wouldn't shatter. When we had some other work done, we paid them to replace the window with safety glass which cost us an additional amount of around $700, rather than deal with JLC again.
One of their workers went over the paint in our bedroom (they did one coat that didn't cover) and did little dabs of paint here and there to cover up missed spots. He accidentally used the wrong paint and they had to repaint the entire wall to cover up all the little spots. This same worker "painted" a combo stain/sealer on our office door. Instead of looking like the rest of our beautifully finished door, it is a different color, shows paint brush lines, and looks terrible. I still will be sanding and redoing the door when I have time.
We finally fired them and decided to finish work on our own with another contractor. We settled with them for $2000 less than the payment should have been to finish the exterior. That wound up costing us $4000 to finish.They were going to do the flooring and we wound up hiring a separate company to finish the flooring. They broke some tile on my tub in the bathroom one of the walls they worked on as part of the project. A year later my bathroom still has the broken tile. I finally told them I'd do something else in the bathroom becasuse they couldn't find replacement tile.
He gets busy with new jobs and doesn't show up for days and weeks at a time. Our job, overall, should have taken maybe two months at the outside. Because they found termites when replacing our sliding glass door, that part might have taken a little longer. However, our job took 18 months, primarily due to not having anyone working on it full time. Considering we are talking about the master bedroom and our primary sleeping quarters, this was unacceptable. The final space looks nice enough, but the quality of work definitely wasn't good.

FAQs for brush chipping projects in Fair Oaks, CA
Topsoil costs from $12 to $55 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. For example, screened black dirt will cost about $15 per cubic yard. Loam (soil composed of sand, silt, and clay) costs about $17 per cubic yard. Standard screened topsoil costs about $20 per cubic yard. The type of topsoil you need depends on your landscaping plans.
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.

Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose.

Cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch cost anywhere from $100 to $120 per cubic yard. A pro can help you determine the type of mulch most suitable for your landscaping needs.
