John was awesome in helping me understand everything that would be involved and came in at the most reasonable price of the other estimates I got. I changed things up a few times and he was patient with accommodating the changes. Ruiz's team showed up on time as promised and worked hard to knock out our project on the timeline we were given. John kept me up to date along the way in person and via text if I wasn't around. In the grand scheme of things, John and his team did really nice work! I will call Ruiz805builders for any upcoming project I have and highly recommend them to anyone asking.

Pacific Outdoor completely redid our backyard, front yard landscaping, put pavers on the driveway,…read morebuilt us a pool, and we couldn't be happier!! They transformed the outside of our home, and it now looks and feels like a magazine spread! Just today, I received compliments from two separate strangers on the front yard. We constantly get compliments on the appearance of our home. Samantha was the landscape architect who created the design, and it was amazing to see her lay out the vision. She saved us space in ways I definitely couldn't have conceived of on my own. She said the remodel would be like doubling our living space, and she was right! Scott oversaw the construction from start to finish. He was very attentive and obviously cared about and was fully invested in the success of the project. He had an expertise with plants and gave great guidance to give me the colors I wanted in plants that would work for our space and the SoCal heat. I am constantly smiling at the plants Scott suggested. They are thriving, and I wouldn't change a thing. The crew was respectful, clean and did a beautiful job. It was a long project, but Pacific Outdoor kept their initial timeline. Our main reason for going with Pacific Outdoor was that they were a one-stop shop. They could do everything. They truly delivered, and it is better than we ever imagined! It was so easy to look at their choices and select what we wanted. They had a wide variety of design choices. We replaced most of the grass in the back with their pavers and used the same pavers for our driveway. They look fantastic. We have a neighbor that had Pacific Outdoor build them a firepit that they love. We received great guidance and attention from the full team all along the way. They didn't quit until the project was finished to our satisfaction. As I float in our beautiful pool and eat tangerines off of my new tree, I feel like a queen and couldn't be happier after choosing Pacific Outdoor! Our family highly recommends them!

These guys did a wonderful job on both my driveway and a patio in my backyard after I decided to…read morefill in my pool. (They had also done an excellent job on the pool deck five years earlier, before I knew I was going to fill in the pool.) I have been very pleased with the results, which have really elevated my enjoyment of my home's outdoor areas. I would also caution anyone considering going with System Pavers to steer clear of those crooks. I wasted thousands of dollars having them do a terrible job on my pool deck, and had to have Pacific rip out their work and fix it. It was an expensive mistake that I hope to save others from repeating. If I had gone with Pacific in the first place, I would have saved lots of money and hassle. Some pictures of the driveway, patio, and now-defunct pool deck are included here.

I contacted Foundation Solutions about two sinking ADA ramp retaining walls. Ryan from Foundation…read moreSolutions met us on-site and developed a plan to secure the retaining walls so we could repour the ADA ramps. Ryan, the office staff, and the field crew were all a pleasure to work with. Their communication was excellent, and they adjusted their schedule as needed due to weather delays. They kept me informed throughout the process and helped develop solutions when unexpected conditions arose. Foundation Solutions is a great company, and I highly recommend them.

Received a letter about earthquake insurance and retrofitting recently, so I decided to find a…read morefoundation and retrofit expert to evaluate our split-level home built in the 1960s. I had noticed some settling happening in one corner of the house near the windows and was concerned that there might be an issue. I also wanted to know if there was anything we could do to strengthen the home in case of earthquake. I sent a message to them on Yelp and received contact back within a day. It was easy to schedule an appointment on the phone. Ryan showed up to do a free evaluation. He took a look at everything in the house, the garage, side yard, and crawlspace. He even let my 7 year old son assist him with some of the process while taking measurements. He explained the settling that we had in the house and had a few recommendations that he said were of no real urgent concern. He told me what to look out for in the future as signs that we might need to take remediation steps. Overall, he came across as extremely honest, detail-oriented, earnest guy. One detail to share that I think illustrates something about Ryan. For context, we are a no shoes in the house family. Over the last 5 years, we've had a decent number of contractors come do work in the house. The no-shoes thing is always something I end up either discussing or (more often than not) temporarily ignoring when people come into the house to work. In this case, Ryan had already noticed the row of shoes by the door and my unshod feet and removed his shoes without a word about it before entering our house. I'm pretty sure that's the first time that's ever happened. That attentiveness alone already put him in the 5 star category!

They were going to start work at 6:30am ..... one guy showed up at 7:00am (not bad) the second guy showed up at 7:45am then had to go home to get all his tools (he forgot them) not a big deal except the owner had ordered a concrete truck for 10:00am and they still had 4 hours of prep work forms etc. When the concrete truck showed up the owner showed up and nothing was ready. The owner was visibly pissed off and tried to backfill one of the holes then proceed to tell me it's my fault they have a truck waiting on them because the holes have dirt in them, so the owner just poured the concrete then jumped in his truck and took off leaving the two guys to try to install the 12 posts at the locations per the drawings... what a joke! It turned out terrible! The last few posts had to be pounded in with a sledge hammer (the more time it took the concrete was setting up) total disaster they acted like it was their first day doing concrete.

We changed our minds many times during the design process but Micah never got frustrated with us. When his crew came to pour the patio they were punctual, hardworking, and friendly. The two things we appreciated most were Micah's ability to stick to the agreed upon timeline and the quality of the work provided. The patio came out beautifully and they did an exceptional job on the intricate brick inlay.

When asking for them to do their part to control dust (the law) in true toddler temper tantrum style they waited for me to stand near to begin to do donuts in personal vehicles to cause more dust. I was forced to file complaints with the city again. The dust and encroachment continued. Finally, today I came to make this review to let others know this company is also just as dishonest as they are lazy. In an attempt to control dust on my property, I sprayed my hose up in the air. Darin and his crew then called the police and filed a FALSE report saying I was throwing objects and water bottles at them. I fear we will be forced to settle this in court.
