"Chris communicated well, started the project on time. He was patient, attentive to details. Listened to all requests and explained what can and can't be done and provided the optimum solution. He handles the excavator very well which allowed the job to be completed efficiently with high precision. If you need the job to be done properly and quickly he and his team can deliver."

"C3 was not the lowest cost, but they were the best. Josh and his team were punctual, worked all day, needed no supervision and did high-quality work. Josh provided some options for a better appearance and was fair in extra costs coming from excavating the slope. We are very happy with the wall and steps and even yard for summer entertaining. I recommend C3 and Josh for any hardscaping work."

"Ray and his crew installed a new gas steam boiler and water heater. The work is fast,clean and professionally done. They came back a few days after to re-check that everything was working properly. The price was reasonable compared to other higher priced bids.Overall I would recommend the Red Van company for future projects."
