We feel like we're on vacation every day spending time in our backyard! Tristan designed and oversaw our project and he was a pleasure to work with and did a fantastic job. His design was way better than what we'd been thinking, it looks so good. He was always easy to get ahold of, was really patient with the various changes we kept making, and made sure that every detail was taken care of so that we were totally happy with the end result. I also really appreciated how he always suggested cost effective options to help us stick to our budget. And to top it all off, at the end they realized we'd overpaid by $1000 and sent us a check we hadn't even asked for or realized we were due! We highly recommend Modern Yardz; I don't write a lot of reviews but Tristan and his team did such a great job that they deserved a glowing review.

He's very transparent and honest all around, and gave us a few good options to get started. In our experience, he was very open to feedback, and had quick turnaround times between revisions, offering several revisions from the get go and delivering on time.

He's very polite and a true gentleman!

After I contacted the owner and spoke with Sharon, they took full responsibility and redid the entire fence from the ground up. The new build is exactly what we were hoping for: high-quality materials, solid craftsmanship, and a beautiful finished product that really elevates our property. Custom work doesn't always go perfectly the first time, but what matters is how a company responds--and they absolutely stood behind their work and made it right. That level of integrity and follow-through is hard to find. I would confidently recommend them based on the final result and their commitment to customer satisfaction.

We had the pleasure to work with Beyond Remodeling and their fantastic project managers, Ariel and Omri to create our beautiful backyard! From the consult to the final walk through, their work and communication were consistent and incredible. They listened to what we wanted and also gave us advice on what would look good. We got excellent value for what we paid for. We requested the river rocks in our walkway, the 3-hole putting green, new pavers for entertainment, and a pergola for shade. They did an amazing job and I definitely recommend them to anyone looking to remodel or renovate their backyard or front yard!

I recently hired Steve to build a custom fence and do some basic landscaping for me at my…read moreClairemont home. From the first meeting, I could tell Steve was an unconventional kind of contractor and was willing to work WITH me to get the exact results I wanted. We spend at least an hour in person reviewing the project, then several rounds of phone call/emails back and forth to hammer out the details and price. Compared to my other bids for the exact same work, Steve's bid was exceptionally detailed (I kid you not, down to the nuts and bolts required) and was SUBSTANTIALLY cheaper--so much so that I hired him on the spot when I got his final reworked bid. I am a pretty particular person (some might say a micro-manager), and I had a very specific vision for how I wanted the fence to be built and look. Steve (and his employees Chris & Patrick) were completely receptive to my input and turned the whole project into a collaborative effort in figuring out how to solve some of the more unique issues that arose during the construction. For me and my personality, that worked out perfectly. I am sure other contractors would have totally blown their lid dealing with me onsite everyday asking questions and talking, but Steve's guys took it in stride and the added collaboration really worked out for the benefit of the final result. The final fence built is so amazing people literally stop as they drive by and shout to ask who did the fence for me. I have even had SEVERAL people knock on my front door and ask for the contractor who built the fence. Part of that is down to my killer modern fence design (Steve know's I am right on that!), but most of it falls down to Steve's excellent execution of my vision. Due to the complexity of the project, Steve estimated 3-4 weeks, and they landed a little early at 3 weeks despite a few mix-ups and change orders. As the project was wrapping up, I was really looking forward to hiring Steve to do more work on other landscaping projects, but sadly, Steve told me he was moving home to be closer to family and this was his last project! I would without a doubt hire Steve and his team again for my future landscaping needs if he ever returns to San Diego.

Even before construction began, their back office called just to welcome us to the family and ensure we had everything we needed. What really made the experience for us was how the project managers Adaya and Roni were both incredibly warm, personable, and genuinely great people to work with. When Adaya (who sold us the job) had to go out of town, the transition to Roni was completely seamless while Adaya still stayed in the loop remotely. It proved how stellar the whole team really is. The crew finished the work in just a few quick days and was so helpful. They were also deeply respectful regarding noise and clean-up, which we really appreciated with a newborn at home. We'll absolutely use them again!

I was forced to personally source and order core components like our medicine cabinet and faucet because the company failed to track or order them. More concerning are the regulatory issues. The project failed its first city inspection due to a mechanical code violation (venting exhaust straight into the attic). Furthermore, the contractor under-reported our $24,331 contract to the City of Imperial Beach on the permit valuation as only $3,786.75 (an 84% discrepancy). We have fulfilled 100% of our financial obligations to close out the contract, but an active investigation has been requested with the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB Complaint #S F 2025016199) regarding their permit reporting and management practices.

John guided us through a clear three-phase process: 1. First, he did a thorough site assessment and gathered our input. 2. Then he presented three design options and iterated based on our feedback and budget constraints. 3. Finally, he delivered a detailed digital plan that included a full plant list and phased implementation. John was straightforward and professional throughout, open to multiple rounds of feedback, and helped us choose plants suited for our area. He also connected us with reliable contractors and even showed up on-site to ensure the work matched his design. In short, he delivered exactly what was promised: a cohesive backyard design with a professional approach.

From the first message, John was easy to work with and extremely responsive, and the whole experience felt collaborative. What stood out most was how well he listened. John took the time to understand our vision and made sure our ideas were incorporated into the design. His three‑step process was a game changer--it clearly set expectations for each meeting and kept everything efficient and stress‑free. The final design? We absolutely love it! It reflects our style and feels unique to our space. We can't wait to make it a reality and create our dream backyard. If you want a designer who values your input and delivers something truly special, John and Infinite Sky Landscape Design are the way to go.
