I cannot sing the praises of Pete's Fence and Gate Company loudly enough! Pete and his team built a…read more(very) custom redwood sliding gate and fence for our home in Nevada City, which was operated by a Liftmaster solar operated motor. From start to finish, Pete and his phenomenal team delivered an experience that was nothing short of extraordinary. Their prompt, thorough, and incredibly helpful communication set the tone for a project that exceeded every expectation we had. Every question was answered with patience and expertise, making us feel valued and informed at every step. The work ethic of Pete's team is unparalleled.

Honesty and integrity through and through.

We have been using Ben's Zap Haul services since we moved to Nevada County about 5 years ago. The…read morefirst call for his service was to remove old building, fencing and construction supplies left behind by the previous owner. He responded quickly, did an excellent job and charged a very fair price. The next work Ben did for us was to refresh the driveway. I think that was 3-4 loads of gravel delivered and spread. Over the next couple years we hired Ben and his crew to support several "dirt work", rock and gravel projects. They built an RV parking area large enough for 2 RVs, a play/picnic area, and lastly an an outdoor social area. These three projects included on the order of 7-8 loads of base gravel, as well as 3 loads of larger rocks, placed to retain gravel and add structure. Over the years Ben, Marley and crew have done several smaller brush, limbing and tree work projects. The latest work was to clean up about 1 1/2 acres of our land, (fuels reduction) It's black Oak, Madrone, and the Manzanita that was 10' tall and literally so thick you couldn't even crawl through it. This work was performed on a fairly moderate slope. Ben brought his masticator, excavator and bucket loader, along with his crew. They worked a solid 8-9 hours. I wish I had before pictures, they left it looking "like a park" for sure. And once again, I had shopped around a bit, and Ben's rates were the best, as expected. I trust Ben, and highly recommend him for any services he offers. As the cooler/wetter weather returns, I'll have Ben and his crew back out for another rock/landscaping project, and another acre or so of brush/tree work. With a little over 5 acres, it's endless...

Tom was responsive in submitting a bid and showing up with his crew on time. I liked the fact Tom performed an initial walkthrough with me, listened to the requirements I had, and made a suggestions that I incorporated. Tom discussed the strategy for trimming the trees with his crew and during the work, his crew in turn also consulted with each other to ensure the best results were implemented. Tom's crew was efficient and friendly, cleaning up the walkways and street of all remaining debris. When the work was completed, the crew asked me to perform another walkthrough to confirm everything was completed. I have future work planned and have already asked Tom to review and submit a bid. The company certainly made an awesome first impression!

It wasn't a big job, it took about 10 minutes, but it was a big deal to me and really saved the day. Thanks Gabriel. God Bless. Sincerely, S.M.
