    Alumawood Patio Cover

    We just recently renovated our backyard and hired Creative Patio Works to build our Patio Cover. Alex and team were great to work with. He runs a professional business from first meeting, contract proposal, permit procurement, invoicing, communicating each step of the way. In addition, the pricing was very reasonable. We are extremely happy with the results. It takes the backyard to the next level. Looking forward to enjoying the beauty and serenity of our new yard.

    It matches so well it Looks like it was constructed the same time as the house.

    Beautiful patio and competitive prices (not the cheapest, but definitely not the most expensive). The office staff and Alex were very responsive via phone and email. Scheduling everything was quick. The initial estimate was timely and once the material arrived the patio installation was scheduled and installed quickly. I did have to wait about 3 months for materials , but that has nothing to do with them. I had several outlets added and the price they charged was reasonable. Very happy with end product.

    Patio and slatted pergola
    Eric V.

    We've now had two construction projects done by them. We had one that involved two patios, a slatted pergola and electrical and the more recent one that involved drainage, irrigation, and lawn. We've had wonderful experiences with both projects. We've worked closely with Ismael on both. We've had a lot of work at our house done and I've worked with a lot of companies on various repairs. Ismael is truly one of the best from communication to knowledge to flexibility and the actual work. Both projects went very smoothly in a timely manner. The real differentiation was how willing Ismael was to answer my questions and work with us. As they were working on the back irrigation I noticed some issues with our front lawn irrigation. I had gotten a notice from the city that our water was continuously running. We had just installed a pool but I realized it was some leaking in our front irrigation. Without missing a beat Ismael took a half hour out of his day to check our front irrigation and help me figure out a few issues. I was obviously a bit stressed because we had just invested on an expensive in ground pool and was concerned the leaking stemmed from that. The fixes were simple; the electrical wasn't fully connected on the front sprinklers and one of the valves needed to be cleaned to stop the water from continuously running which was causing the leak. This had nothing to do with the backyard irrigation but he so generously offered a helping hand. They finished their project and a few days later I noticed a pool of water in a different space. I reached back out to him and he came out the next day to check it out and see if it was anything related to their project. It wasn't. The issue again had to do with the front yard irrigation system and this time the drip. He just went ahead and fixed it and showed me the problem no questions asked. Some contractors skimp and some do anything to squeeze as much money out of you and use as little time as possible. Ismael is committed to working with and providing a genuine service. I noticed this with his guys too. They were willing to help me troubleshoot my irrigation issues up front even though it was not connected to the current project. This is truly commendable and in my opinion shows a company committed to not only doing great work but creating a safe and enjoyable experience for the client. This is worth it to me even if they charge a bit more. The quality of the work but also the effort they put into the relationship is crucial. For that I highly recommend creative patio works. Ismael holds himself to a very high standard for the quality of his work and the relationships he builds with clients.

    I highly recommend Creative Patios for any of your backyard needs. Two years ago, they built us the most beautiful patio cover I could ever imagine. They listened to my ideas and my hopes and created exactly what I wanted. In addition to a beautiful patio cover, they constructed brick pillars to match the rest of my house and installed electricity for a fan and lights. My family and I feel like we got a whole new room in the backyard. And that's where we started spending most of our time. Then this year, we called them back to replace the patio flooring which consisted of, cracked tiles and concrete that was old and unappealing. They recommended stained and stamped concrete as a replacement and began work immediately. The work crews were hard-working and respectful and very professional. They worked every day, showing up as promised until the job was done. I have had other work done around my house by different companies and sometimes the crews showed up and sometimes they didn't. This was not the case with Creative Patio. Ismael was the head of our project, and I cannot say enough good things about him. Ismael consulted with me through every phase of the project and led his work crews with attention and focus. The results are incredible. I feel like we made an investment in the value of our home that goes above and beyond what we paid. More importantly, it is just beautiful and so inviting. Family and friends are drawn to the backyard instantly and I feel like we could live back there if we had to and be very happy. What am I saying? We do live back there now! Ismael's suggestions and ideas were just wonderful. He improved the draining system of the patio and his expertise in being able to predict the outcome of color combinations for the concrete stain right on! I have very high expectations and was especially anxious about getting the right colors. My hopes for a beautiful functional patio were all exceeded. Other family members have already contracted with Creative Patio for work in their own homes. I highly recommend Ismael and Creative Patio.

    We still need to install all of the grills and so forth but it looks amazing!

    The Creative Patio Works team was amazing from beginning to end. They are professional, communicative, accountable and so good at what they do. We are thrilled with our patio cover. It looks amazing and so high-end! Thanks to Alex and his team for a beautiful beginning to our outdoor kitchen! can't wait to finish it!! Big shout out to Dayan and Vanessa for always keeping me in the know!

    After.  Alex and his team did an amazing job on my patio cover! Definitely worth the money. Thank you Alex!

    First I want to thank the entire Creative Patio Works team...YOU ARE ALL AMAZING! Second, a special THANK YOU to Diane, Vanessa, Nick, Sammy and last but not least Alex! I feel like I have friends for life. You were great during the entire process and my patio cover is beautiful!!

    Love love love!!! In love with our new patio cover. Alex and his crew did an amazing job, they really went above and beyond! The only down part was waiting for the manufacturer due to COVID. But thankfully, Alex was able to schedule the work right away. Can't wait for our patio furniture to arrive! Highly recommend!

    We Love our Patio Cover! Great Product, Excellent Installers, Fast Installation and we couldn't be more Pleased! The City Inspector liked the Product and the Installers so much he recommended them to his Friend in Sacramento, and she ordered one as well as a Co-worker of mine! Thank you Creative Patios!!

    Alex and his team did an excellent job. We are very happy with our new patio cover. Everything went very smoothly. Office staff was very helpful and always ready to answer any questions in timely manner.

    once rain, water came in

    Others were dealing patio cover with Alex. My case is sunroom. I am a very disappointed customer. On the first day of rain to my sunroom, it leaks. Two doors have small gap, all insects came in ....Alex is pushing the responsibility away. I was wondering how many of you are having the same leaking problem from his work? He is pushing responsibility away and with a lot of excuses. My sunroom is 2 yrs now, I spent almost 20K for this poor 15X15 sunroom which 10 years of warranty. I am NOT his competitor. I am his real customer! =--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Alex and his team did an awesome job with the project. He not only installed a freestanding patio cover but also was able to provide landscaping to our new build. He provided us a quote within a few days after seeing our property. Alex made sure we understood our countless options for patio covers. We were able to color match our house. He provided great service throughout the process. There were some delays, however it was due to materials being available. My wife and I are very happy with the craftsmanship of the patio cover.

    We have been looking for a contractor for awhile..... We live an hour from sacramento, so it was pretty difficult for other contractors to accomodate us. We got 3 different estimates and Creative patio beat every competitor we've came across. BEST Pricing, BEST quality & of course BEST customer service! Alex knew exactly what we wanted with the exception of making small changes due to the convience of our patio size. We had a 15x21 patio put in with ceiling fan and 4 LED halo ligt mounted with Dimmer, height of patio was about 11 feet high (i was skeptical about it being so high, but due to the placement of our windows it worked out perfectly). Everything was well planned out: payment arrangements, permit, installation date & inspection. Our patio came out better than expected!! Alex and his crew takes alot of pride in their work, We can tell :) Overall, We are highly satisfied with their work & cannot wait until summer comes along to enjoy the long nights of bbq & enjoying the view from our patio. Thank you soo much Creative Patios, It was a pleasure working with you. We will definetly recommend you to family & Friends!

    This company built me a beautiful motorized patio cover in 2011. Why I'm giving them 5 stars now is for their customer service. They have honored their warranty on a motor issue almost 10 years later. This company has been easy to work with and is very responsive. I highly recommend Creative Patio Works!

    Axent Shutters Blinds & Shades - NEW SHOWROOM BEING CONSTRUCTED

    Axent Shutters Blinds & Shades

    (135 reviews)

    I had shutters installed by Axent Shutters Blinds & Shades back in June and wanted to live with…read morethem for a bit before writing a review -- and now a few months later I can confidently say it was such a great decision. Chris Louie, the owner, was incredibly friendly and responsive right from the start. After I submitted a quote request online, he contacted me almost immediately and came out with a huge variety of samples. Seeing the different shutter styles, sizes, and widths in person was so helpful because what I *thought* I wanted actually changed once he walked me through the options. He really took his time explaining everything, which made the process much less overwhelming. I also appreciated that he gave me a few days to think it over instead of pushing for a quick decision. After comparing everything, I decided to go with Axent -- and I'm so glad I did. The pricing was fair, communication was excellent, and the delivery and installation went smoothly. The install team was fantastic. They worked efficiently, cleaned everything up, and even vacuumed before leaving -- it honestly looked like they had never even been there. Helpful tip: if you're unsure about shutter sizes or styles, ask Chris to walk you through the differences in person with the samples. It makes choosing so much easier. Final verdict: absolutely worth it.

    Made in the Shade NorCal - Plantation Shutters in Dining Room alcove. Blinds can be opened top or bottom or both. Really beautiful.

    We love our new shutters from Made in the Shade…read more We desperately needed new blinds for the kitchen and family room. We received three reasonable bids, but Made in the Shade was our best option after a small negotiation. Chelsea did a fabulous job explaining what was available to us. She listened, had a great sense of humor, and allowed us to ask questions and explore different design options. We even met Brando, the owner, who came out to discuss our order briefly. Then Josh came out to install our 5 new shutters. He was fast, very polite, and did a wonderful job. There are many options for new shutters, and perhaps, once they are installed, who you purchased them from will not ever be noticed. But we all know the problems that can occur with delays, poor installation, and sloppy workmanship. Made in the Shade was incredible, a joy to work with, and very high quality. The shutters arrived two weeks earlier than promised, so if there was one downside, it was that I had to hurry and paint the kitchen--not much of a downside. We highly recommend Made in the Shade.

If you come across Chelsea working with any curtain or window treatment company in the area, be extremely cautious. This experience has been a nightmare and I wouldn't want anyone else to go through the same thing!
