    Joel and his crew did an amazing job at a very reasonable price to remove my Monterey Cypress. I hated to see the tree go but it was dying a slow death. Clean and efficient. The yard looked like they were never there. They worked around and protected my hot tub. Carefully went through the house to the front to grind and remove every branch. Job was done earlier this year and I failed to post it with photos. Joel can use me anytime as a reference. I highly recommend.

    There are so many licence contractors out there, but not many are honest, humble, and professional like Joel.

He took the time to explain that the stone is naturally layered and that some surface flaking over time is normal. After showing me the underlying layer, it was clear the stone itself was solid and that no repair was actually needed. I really appreciated David's honesty and integrity -- it would have been easy to recommend unnecessary work, but instead he explained what was happening and reassured me that the patio is in good shape. I'll absolutely keep their contact information for future projects and would not hesitate to recommend them.

Him and his team were very easy to work with and everyone was very professional from start to finish. They were all very knowledgeable and gave their expert opinion on what design and layout would work the best. Everyone on David's team was also very responsive and patient as well. They finished the entire job in just two days which was amazing. They took one day to level and clear the area and another day to add in all of the pavers. Even though the project was probably more on the smaller end, the level of attention and detail David and his team provided was top notch. I would definitely reach out to David again for any future landscaping projects!

    Kim and David are a great team!…read more Very easy to work with, honest and reliable people. Their crew was great as well. They were all polite and considerate of us and our neighbors. Hard workers, they got the job done in four days. I have used other paver companies in the past so I knew what I was looking for. Their pricing was very straightforward, with no surprises and extremely reasonable. Kim and David have great ideas and know what they're doing. We had quite a few areas of yard that were overgrown with weeds - they needed to be cleaned up and replaced with weed barrier and mulch. Then we had a large area in the backyard that needed pavers where we will be installing a cedar shed. You can see from the Before and After pictures what a transformation it has been! Highly recommend Modern Paving with Kim and David. Did I mention that they got the job done in four days? My friends and family were all amazed at how quickly the transformation occurred and how nice it looks now!

    Two years ago, we began work on a retaining wall with another contractor, only to discover later…read morethat it had not been built correctly. The structure was poorly executed, and we were left with a frustrating and costly problem. That's when we reached out to Modern Paving. From the very beginning, David, the manager, stood out for his professionalism and deep expertise. He took the time to thoroughly assess the situation, explain the issues in plain terms, and lay out a clear plan to fix the defective construction. What impressed me most was his integrity--he didn't try to cut corners or offer a quick cosmetic fix. Instead, he focused on doing the job right, ensuring the wall would be structurally sound and built to last. The workmanship from David and his team was meticulous. Every detail was addressed, from the foundation work to the finishing touches, and their precision was evident in every step. They approached the project like true craftsmen, combining technical know-how with pride in their work. Modern Paving is not the cheapest option, and frankly, that's a good thing. You are paying for subject matter experts who value quality over speed, and honesty over empty promises. In an industry where it can be hard to find contractors you can fully trust, David and his crew stand out as the gold standard. Their professionalism, skill, and commitment to doing the right thing make them, without question, the best in the area. I would recommend Modern Paving without hesitation to anyone who wants their project done right the first time--or in our case, done right the second time.

    We recently completed a large-scale backyard renovation with Stones Landscaping, and are quite…read morepleased with the results. This involved pouring over 1,500 sq. ft. of concrete, a large retaining wall, a patio deck, a new lawn, and a playground area. Here were some of the highlights of my experience: - Design Guidance: I relied heavily on Baltazar's experience and keen sense of design. His elegant hardscaping solution for the pool transition zones exceeded my expectations and tied the yard together perfectly. - The grading and drainage were very well done. Despite heavy rains, there was zero pooling; the rain gutters were routed directly into pipes beneath the concrete for a clean, streamlined look. - Smart Home Integration: All landscape lighting and irrigation were hooked up to smart-home enabled controllers for total automation and convenience. - The office staff was very responsive, addressing any concerns or follow-up questions usually within a single business day. Props to Gladys and Dahlia! Highly recommended!

    In our home improvement projects, landscaping our front yard was one of the nine projects we…read moreundertook. Throughout these projects, we sought God's wisdom, guidance, and most importantly, provision. We received three bids for each project, contacting them via phone. Most of them were easy to work with and accommodating, but one company stood out. I contacted this company, just like I did with the others, explaining that we needed to finish our front yard because my husband couldn't do it now due to health reasons. Before they even arrived, they demanded measurements and photos of our front yard. I'm not the best at measuring, but I did my best, considering I'm a full-time caregiver. I explained my situation to them, but they were very business-minded and lacked empathy. I complied with their requests and was surprised when Miguel, the owner, made an appointment to come out to our property. I already knew they wouldn't be a company we'd be interested in hiring, but in life, we need to be fair. Manuel arrived and was courteous. I asked him how he could bid on a job before he could actually access it and see what was required. He replied that he'd been doing this for a long time. Upon his departure, I noticed him measuring our property. I couldn't help but wonder why he needed to measure when he had already given us the price for the job. All the contractors bid on both the front and back yards. However, when we decided to postpone the backyard project and focus solely on the front yard, I contacted Stone Landscaping. The lady informed me that this change would increase the front yard price by 10% since the backyard was no longer included in the original quote. I was genuinely surprised and disappointed, as I sensed that this company lacked integrity and professionalism. Determined to find a dependable and honest landscaping company, I reached out to D&I Landscaping. I explained our decision to focus on the front yard and inquired about the cost. To my delight, they simply adjusted the price by removing the backyard, without any extra charges for the revision. This was a refreshing change, as D&I Landscaping demonstrated transparency and honesty. Life teaches us valuable lessons. While I don't intend to criticize others, I felt compelled to share my honest review of D&I Landscaping. If you're looking for a trustworthy and reliable landscaping company that offers high-quality work and uses quality materials, look no further than Irwin at D&I Landscaping. His company is dedicated to providing excellent service, listening to your needs, and showing genuine care and compassion.

They were quick to respond, and communication throughout the project was excellent. Their bid was competitive, and they offered the most aggressive timeline--which they delivered on.

They were extremely knowledgeable about city permits and inspections, requiring minimal involvement from us. We would use them again for any future projects and highly recommend their services.
