"Hunter, the owner, was an exceptional professional and was extremely focused on customer satisfaction. Before we signed a contract he told me he will work as hard as it takes to get a good review. That’s somebody that cares about his customers. His work was impeccable, was priced very competitively (I had 3 offers) and completed on time. This was not a small job. It involved grading & curbing a 350 ft driveway and included a 30 feet apron with nice pavers. He oversaw it all and was checking in multiple times a day to ensure everything met (and exceeded) expectations. He also added palm trees and professional lighting. Our driveway looks stunning. Thanks Hunter. I will recommend you to friends and family. Lode "

"Very quick to respond to the request for an estimate. Very informative with the process and the price was reasonable they offered to send certificates of insurance. There was no pushy sales for unwanted work but they did point out other areas where work is needed for the future for us to keep an eye on. Working with a local company made it very personable. The crew did a great job with making contact with me before, during and after the job was complete . The clean up was great and the yard, roof and other areas looked better than before they arrived. ( hardly a wood chip was left)"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, many providers offer design consultations to create unique structures. Confirm with your contractor.

For optimal sun exposure, strategically place your trellises along the northern boundary of your garden bed or adjacent to a fence or wall. Conversely, consider situating the trellises on the southern side in sun-drenched locales to create soothing shade for heat-sensitive plants, effectively screening and sheltering them from the scorching summer sun.

Wood, vinyl, and metal are common materials. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and maintenance needs.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

A pergola needs to be anchored, and typically, concrete is the best anchor option. Pergolas should be anchored to a concrete slab or concrete footings, and this is commonly required by municipal building codes. When applying for a permit to install a pergola, be sure to check the anchoring requirements as well.
