"There was a bit of delay in getting the job scheduled and started, but once that was set the job went smooth and the end result looked great."

"Went well, was very pleased with work, he developed an illness while working (sinus infection or bronchitis something of that sort) plus his help quit arriving, so it was just him, he pushed through and completed the project, my only complaint would be he did get in a bit of a rush and a few things were missed that I corrected after he was done but again he was ill, his help quit showing and it was HOT!!! He framed an 8 feet deep 44 feet wide and 64 feet long wrap around porch in a week! Fred was a great guy and would hire again"

"They trimmed bushes, trimmed trees, raked up pine needles, mowed, edged and cleaned up everything just as we asked. It is a very large lot and we couldn't be happier with the end result, it looks great. The price was very reasonable, they are hard workers and we are very pleased with their service. We will use them again."

"Homeadvisor's options did not allow a box for both sidewalks, driveway and long retaining wall. But he did all! Dan deserves a review which reflects his superb work on my home at 6201 So Gove St, Tacoma (the driveway and sidewalks are viewable, but the retaining wall is being covered by bricks slowly! Over 12 contractors called & actually only had bids by 2 on the complicated work (having to estimate dirt volume to move, cement needed, & various changes in the walls & angles to conform with the project. Almost all contractors who were provided the complicated plans did NOT want to in fact try & follow them & make a bid as it was not a simple  wall job, etc.. & thus never bid! Dan patiently spent over an hour review and discuss those plans, take them home , & then make a calculated bid! Dan's estimate was reasonable & he advised what he would require different in the base of the wall so that it did not collapse; I appreciated this advice as even though costing more, a collapsed wall is not something desired & his suggestions were appropriate and accepted and welcomed! I did not know Dan before and will not ever need cement work probably ever again but to help another homeowner feel comfortable in selecting a great cement firm is why I want to post this. There are never enough great professionals at any job and those who are the œcream of the crop deserve to be mentioned as such! The job: Driveway, sidewalks, driveway 34 ft wide top end drain, approximately 150 feet of various height retaining wall 4 ft or less . The wall has various angles to include small planter garden at entry, etc. Moving dirt and removing as necessary which I had a hard time finding a contractor who would also agree to remove dirt (they just wanted to move some small grading which my project required much more). Professionalism: Dan always listenedto the ideas of the project, & gave great suggestions on changes to assure the concrete wall would not fail. Twice I called the cement plant & the lady working there both times when I mentioned who our contractor was volunteered how nice & polite a person Dan was..to hear that (twice even) was very comforting too. Timeliness: Dan was always on site as promised & let me know ahead of time if they had to have a day off to complete another job which I always appreciated; Dan let me know ahead of time sometimes another project had to be worked on and thus I knew that. However, he was on my site 98% of the time. Other professional™s acknowledgement of quality cement work. 2 different brick contractors both notice how superb a job Dan did. They notice how straight the wall was not only vertically but also horizontally which is crucial when placing a brick wall right next to it! To hear other professionals state such really felt great as even though I thought it looked wonderful, these other professionals knew when jobs were done poorly or not up to par and thus was nice to hear their compliments on thi™s cement w"

"It went well. A sprinkler was accidentally broken, but of course they fixed it at no charge."

"As long as Nathan (the owner) was there, things went pretty well.  When he was gone his workers tended to try and take a lot of shortcuts in hopes they wouldn't be noticed.  Just a matter of pointing out the shortcuts to Nathan and having his crew do it right.  Somewhat typical I'd say of most hired hands in this sort of business.
They removed the decades-old azaleas and monkey grass and replanted various new shrubs.  In a perfect world the landscape designer would engineer a drawing and go from there.  I didn't see the need for that so we just sketched some stuff out and went for it.  In the end, I think we got just as good a product by winging it and letting Nathan make some on-the-fly decisions than we would have if we'd spend the money on some fancy drawings that probably would have gotten changed during the installation anyway.  Nathan's group brought in some hardscape which I think they did a really nice job installing and blending in.  As will all landscaping it is sort of designed to be sparse since it is supposed to grow together over the years.  So it looks a little thin now, but it'll be just fine in a few years.
This is purely my opinion, but I think they may have mixed in a little too much fertilizer/manure when they reworked the soil.  A lot of the plants exhibited some burning rather quickly which makes me think they got some root burn. They all are coming out of it, but there was definitely a pull-back on 90% of the landscaping within the first couple of weeks.  But that appears to have halted and I'm seeing some new growth appear from the soil upwards.  I would say it is more than just transplant shock.
Nathan cut me a deal since I waited until the end of summer when his business drops off rather than trying to get something done in the spring when he is swamped.  Landscaping is just expensive no matter what.  I'd use Bluum/Nathan again if I had the need to.  On the communications side, I'd say he communicates better than most contractors which is something I always appreciate.

"Went great. they were done in about 3 or 4 days. They cleaned up everything and built the wall right. The stacked stone the re-attached to the wall looked a lot better than the original wall. It's been almost 2 years now and we have been through a couple of very heavy and prolonged rain events and the wall is still good. I decided to do this review because I was on this website and looking to have them do another job for me."
