"I cannot express enough how happy I am with my retaining wall project! From the moment I put in my information requesting professionals to install a retaining wall, I was amazed at the prompt response of Pg Landscaping 360 LLC and with the follow through. Mr. Garcia called within a few minutes of my posting, and came out to my property within a few hours to assess the project and give me a bid. He then had a written estimate emailed to me the same day! We started the project the very next week, and everything was completely organized with loads of blocks, dirt, gravel, and equipment. Each day, all materials needed were there timely, so the project went very smoothly. Mr. Garcia and his team of workers were polite, efficient, and the hardest workers I've ever seen! They worked extremely hard and fast, despite some bad weather. I highly recommend Pg Landscaping and wouldn't hesitate to hire them again for any upcoming projects!"

"Jerrod the owner of Archstone was emphatic to point out that he is one of the best if not the best and a very conscientious and honest man. He said the mortar on exterior house wall is very hard and can't be ground out. Per his expert advise the best things is pressure wash and scrape out loose and damaged mortar and use sponging technique to fill in cavities with type S mortar. I understood and agreed asking for care with pressure washer. Quote was $2922 before tax. He said the wall wouldn't look much better than it does now but he would get all the places having egregious deterioration and then seal. Two days work. Moving forward his team (him and a 18 year old nephew) came and went in less than 4 hours. Sealant remained to be done and I could see that cost was itemized at $400. I personally could do it in 1/2 hour so I asked him to scratch it from the price. He was very amenable to that. The issue arose when I was sealing I found and sent him photos of spots with severe erosion that were missed and should take about 1 hour to fix. Some on wall, one in bottom corner of house, one big seam in windowsill. I sent email and photos asking for him to return. He didn't reply. 1 week later I reached him by phone and he said he didn't get the email/or hadn't read it yet but he wasn't going to come back for 'pinholes' which I could do myself. First of all I could do everything myself but that's time that I paid him for. He is too busy to come. Photos are from the south wall as discussed."

"It went very well. Technician listened on what is my concern and address them."

"The process went well and the results were exactly how we expected them to be. The construction only took about a week and the price that Alex suggested was reasonable and affordable. Alex's crew was very polite and did a fantastic job. Overall amazing results, we are very happy with our new patio."

"Woody's excavating is a great outfit and we have recommended them to a number of friends. We have hired them numerous times over the past three years, at every phase of building our home. Randy and Darryl did an excellent job every time: clearing the land, digging for the foundation and septic, trenching for water, power, and drainage lines, and putting the finishing touches on the drive way. Randy is easy to work with. He is honest and has earned our trust. He always works to do the right thing. The results are always excellent, exceeding our expectations. Finally, we have always been appreciative of his focus on safety."

"Cost of Kim’s services for planting a ~1500 sq ft hillside: 20-25k Cost of construction: 40k For professionals who are providing a long-term service, any negative reviews are red flags because it indicates that they were not professional in resolving issues privately with their client. In our case, Kim was defensive, made many costly mistakes, and then billed us for the hours spent discussing and resolving them. She charges principal level rates for inexperienced site research and permit assistance and cannot take ownership of her mistakes with professionalism and grace. She also makes it difficult to detect her mistakes because her contract insists that her office is the only one allowed to submit for permits. I heard from a few people in the design and construction business that they preferred other LA firms over Kim’s. This should have been a red flag from the start but I ignored the suggestion and hired her due to her 5 star ratings. Here's our experience: 1. She makes costly mistakes and does not take ownership for them. She unnecessarily delayed our permit process about 10 months when it could have been done in 2 months—she forced us to go through a lengthy design and permitting process because she was convinced that our hillside was a Steep Slope even though our Survey didn't indicate the presence of one. Luckily, a city reviewer emailed all of us asking why Kim drew a Steep Slope on her plans which was not in the Survey she submitted. It took a couple emails and a call from me to convince her that our slope was not steep. She billed for these discussions, the revisions, and resubmitting permit revisions. She had a hard time taking ownership for this mistake, and instead blamed the surveyor for not labeling the Steep Slope. The surveyor is not responsible for labeling it if it doesn’t exist, Kim. The overall financial damage of her mistake was over $15k, among the unnecessary hours billed by Kim, the unnecessary permit fees, and an unnecessary Geotech report we had to get as a result of this process. 2. She mistook a shrub for a protected tree and drew it in the wrong location on our Planting Plan. When I texted her, she told me she was billing me for discussing this mistake and that she would charge me for revising the Planting Plan around the correct location of the shrub. What’s to keep her from taking advantage of me and making intentional mistakes just so she can charge me more? 3. She didn’t deliver what she promised on our proposal and pushed back on our vision because she was afraid the city wouldn’t allow it. She billed us hours for inaccurate site research, mislabeled our setbacks, and didn't design short retaining walls which the city would have allowed. 4. She also seems desperate and pushy when it comes to money. One time, she spent an hour texting me to call my bank to see if they could speed up a payment hold of 3-5 days. That hour would have been better spent on proofreading her plans."
