They are reasonably priced and do quality work. I highly recommend them for landscaping, irrigation and pavers.

No matter the size and scope of your project, I would recommend Sergio and his team in a heartbeat.

Reached out on Yelp for a quote for a 10'x12' pad for a shed. Daniel responded and came over for a…read morequote very quickly and gave us a really solid price via a written estimate. Was able to schedule the work for a week later. He and the other two showed up on time, asked lots of questions to ensure my preferences were respected, and did a great job putting the pad together, even digging through a lot of roots. The pad looks great and is exactly what we wanted. The guys were respectful and efficient. Will likely be using them again for future masonry work on our front steps. Thanks!

Let's start with quality: Eugene's team came in and honestly assessed the problem with our steps…read more-- the internal cinder bricks supporting them had dissolved from water damage. Then they came in, destroyed the whole old steps in one day, and build a whole new frame for them out of concrete (not sand), cinderblock, and cinder bricks. Then we can go to Value: The estimate for the work was incredibly reasonable for 5 days worth of work for 3 people. So much precision in the joints, in the alignment of the blue stone, and in the stairs. Our back steps get A LOT of use, and there is a water\ice leak over them that causes a lot of trouble. The new steps were re-designed to shed water so that this problem is rare. I am so happy with them!

From the start, they were super easy to talk to--no pressure, just good, honest advice. I had a rough idea of what I wanted, and they helped me figure out the rest with some great suggestions. They clearly know their stuff, and it shows in the work. They handled everything--cleanup, planting, edging, some light stonework--and they did it all with care and attention to detail. You can tell they actually take pride in their work. The crew was friendly, respectful of the space, and left everything neat and tidy when they were done. Now the yard looks 100x better. It's clean, well-shaped, and just feels more put together. Even my neighbors have complimented it, which never happens. If you're looking for someone reliable, down-to-earth, and really good at what they do, I'd definitely recommend giving Christian a call. I'll be reaching out again when I'm ready for the next phase.

I would absolutely recommend Steve and Stella Roofing Services. I have to say after the job they…read moredid today, I am not surprised seeing so many 5 star reviews about his work ethic and most importantly, his communication. When I decided it was time to replace my 40+ year-old roof after consulting with Steve, he told me truthfully that he would do everything he can as a local owner and a friendly neighbor (literally one street over) to help me in any way he could to take care of my need for a new roof under my financial limits. He made sure to address any potential issues, he assessed the inside attic space and made sure he didn't see any serious concerns before making any knee jerk assumptions like some do from a visual standpoint. Whether it be from the delivery of the shingles (which he communicated with me immediately to take care of a shipment error on the warehouse side before the job started) so that the job didn't start with the wrong shingle we selected !! His price was fair compared to a couple other companies who he competes against, because he truly wanted the business so he can continue to grow to compete against the other big name companies that upsell from a commissions perspective. Everything happened as he had scheduled. His team arrived in the early morning and finished in 7 hours. Shane assisted with taking care of boarding up the existing Gable vents and cleaning up everything inside the house as well as assisting the rest of the team so that there was no trail of a mess left behind. In echoing another reviewer, after the job finished, "his entire team cleaned up so you wouldn't even know they were there." I am thankful I went with Steve and Stella Roofing Services, and will consider for any future home improvement projects.

I honestly don't understand how anyone could give more than one star, I would have given zero if…read morethat were an option. I've completed previously several projects on my property with half a dozen different contractors, and I've never had an experience as poor as the one I had with Stella. 1. Subcontracted Work: Stella subcontracted 100% of the work to third-party contractors except for trash removal, which I'll address later. They likely hired cheap subcontractors and added a 20-30% markup for their own profit. 2. Lack of Communication: Communication was minimal. I was rarely informed about the next steps or timelines. Initially, I thought this was just one person's oversight, but after interacting with other employees, I realized it's systemic. The company seems to operate with a policy of minimal customer engagement unless absolutely necessary. 3. Unannounced Workers: Subcontractors (painters, electricians, carpenters, etc.) frequently showed up without notice and began working without even a greeting. On multiple occasions, I nearly called the police, thinking someone was trespassing. Most didn't wear uniforms, spoke little or no English, and simply said "talk to boss," making it impossible to understand what they were doing. Stella never communicated these details, and one of their employees even scolded me for asking the workers what they were doing. Ironically, Stella charged a "management fee" despite me having to coordinate with the subcontractors myself. These workers came sporadically one or two days at a time, then disappeared for weeks. This dragged the project out for several months. 4. No Shoe Covers: None of the subcontractors wore shoe covers, so I had to clean up after them daily. 5. Billing Issues: Stella issued invoices for partially completed work and expected immediate payment. If not paid right away, they charged interest even though the work wasn't finished. 6. Trash Removal: The only physical work done by a Stella employee was trash removal. My property was surrounded by piles of debris for months. They sent one person every 2-3 weeks, only when the trash had accumulated substantially. I had to constantly watch for loose nails and other hazards. 7. Final Advice: Save yourself 20-30% of the cost and a lot of headaches, hire a reliable local contractor instead.
