"A.P. put in a new, large concrete patio, sidewalk, under ground plumbing and a number of other things of us at our home and two of our rental properties. As a family- owned & operated business, A.P. is one of the hardest working and most dependable contractors we have worked with during our various construction odysseys. They are all about collaborative planning, great service, efficiency, speed, quality, and client satisfaction. They have all the right equipment, new and well maintained.

This is a great team. They deliver what they promise, price their work fairly, and made certain that they understood what we were trying to accomplish up-front and throughout the project. And that the job was 100% finished, to our satisfaction, before they moved on. Bravo A.P. -well done! We unconditionally recommend this team to anyone who needs a crew they can count on. Hoping that we get an opportunity to work together sometime in the future."

"The job: replace 60 year old barbed wire fence with 4x4 mesh wire fence to keep dogs contained. The good: Alex paid attention to what I wanted, communicated well, completed the work quickly, and the crew did a good job. The bad: His estimate of work and cost was way off, ended up spending double what he estimated. "

"Do not hire! I was excited because he had great reviews. I provided photos of what I was looking for in a banister. I?ll admit, one photo was a bit different from the others, but he did not try to clear any questions. He did not provide plans for the project or confirm anything before starting the job. His time management was poor and it took him a lot longer than was told. He did not communicate about additional costs on things, and then blames for losing money because he had to buy extra things. Communication goes a long way. After the job was complete, I told him if he can fix it, I would like him to. But if he can?t, that if we can agree to a partial refund. I had already lost confidence in this job. His time management was poor once more and I told him I?d like a refund instead so that I can find someone who can fix it. I?ve received many quotes from other professionals and they all say it?s not salvageable and it?s not up to code. I?m Now having to hire an inspector to verify."

"I contacted Francisco and he was able to do a service call early the next morning. He was a great communicator. He texted me when he was on the way. He was very professional. He diagnosed the problem with our sprinkler system and did the necessary repair. I highly recommend him. Thank you for a job well done, Susie"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A concrete base—or concrete footings, more specifically—is necessary for a freestanding pergola build. A pergola is top-heavy and can’t stand on its own, so it will always need some type of base or support. If you’re attaching a pergola to a deck, the deck’s supportive joists will act as the support, so there will be no concrete base or footings necessary.

Your fence post holes should be about three times as wide as the post. So if your post is 4-by-4 inches, you should make your hole at least 12 inches wide. The depth of the hole depends on the height of your post, but it should be as deep as one-third of the post height.

Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand. 

Yes, you can build a pergola yourself or with a helper after you obtain any necessary building permits. A pergola can be as simple or complex as you like. Building a pergola is an excellent way to showcase your DIY skills and learn new ones along the way.

Pressure-treated wood is a classic and budget-friendly choice for building a pergola. If you’re going for a more natural look, opt for hardwoods such as redwood and cedar. These naturally resist insects and rot, plus they have stunning color and texture on their own, so you’ll be able to skip stains and paints.
