    Retaining wall and concrete
    Kacey T.

    Great experience overall ! Nick was quick with the estimate and once approved, everything was put into action . He re-did my whole front and back yard and we absolutely love it . Would highly recommend !

    a gravel path leading to a house

    Goldstar Landscaping did a fantastic job in re-sodding and laying pavers at our house. They were timely, professional, affordable and friendly. I highly recommend their work.

    The tile has come up and now we need to have the porch redone.

    Do not use. They did our tile work. 3 years later I have to have it redone because of this. Repeated attempts to contact them 2ago went unanswered.

    Nick and Dan and their team... if i had more than two thumbs, i'd raise them all. I loved working with them and trusting them with making my, what used to be a forest, home is now a play area and staycation home for my family. With my lack of experience in design and know how, I entrusted him to do it for me and he made a miracle happen. His brother, Dan, is an electrical whiz and helped my husband and I put up our ready made pergola which looks amazing. He hooked up all the wires so nice and neat and made what was thought to not work, WORK! I cannot thank them enough for a superb job on my yard. I will use them again for my next future project and I have no hesitation to endorse them to fellow colleagues and friends to do their yard. I don't have my plants yet, but definitely will call on Nick and Dan. Great guys really!!! Thank you for everything.

    After Gold Star.

    Nick and the Gold Star crew did an outstanding job on transforming our front and backyards into gorgeous spaces (Danville) that made us smile. Nick is easy to work with and takes the time to answer any questions regarding your project. If you call him him he answers or promptly returns your call. It took me 3 months to find someone who I felt was trustworthy and more importantly a solid person. Nick and the crew (Dan, Dong, and Van) are members of the family.

    Front yard

    Nick and his crew are the best. I can't say enough good things about them. Nick is extremely easy to work with and he is very flexible. He gives you sound advice about your landscaping ideas and is very responsive. So far he has completed our back and front yard landscaping projects. I will be using Nick and his team for all future landscaping projects. My family and I are extremely happy with what he has done for us.

    Artificial turf with stamped concrete. Cones are covering pergola brackets.

    Gold Star Landscaping produces very nice and high value landscaping projects. Nick and his team's cement work is second to none. Nick built our backyard in mid 2015 in which he laid concrete, built a retaining wall, installed artificial turf, installed irrigation, and planted shrubs and trees. As of February 2018, his work is holding up very well. We constantly receive comments on the quality and look of our backyard. People are amazed that the hardscape is formed with stamped concrete. Aside from Nick's work product, he is good guy. He always has a smile and is in good spirits. He also has helped with me various muscle-based tasks, such as helping me unload and move enormous pottery and a pergola kit. More recently, he assisted with upgrading the irrigation and planting additional plants in our front yard. Nick and his crew continue to do nice work in our community of homes.

For the past two years I was watering my lawn all the time, sometimes twice a day during Summer and whenever we vacationed or left home for a week I was always worried about the lawn dying and all the effort it would take to regrow. It started to become a chore rather than something enjoyable. We finally decided to get a Sprinkler System installed and so glad we found Jon. Communication was great right away with super fast replies on Yelp and I believe Jon even came the next day for an estimate. He finished the sprinkler system in less than a week which is what he quoted with excellent attention to detail and a very honest price. The complexity was we were doing concrete work at the time so there were two contractors at our house at the same time. He set me up with a 3 zone system, the front area is exposed to a lot of sun and I always struggled with keeping things growing there. The cool thing is the Rachio system he installed automatically chooses ideal times to water based on daily weather reports. You can see the "after" pictures which show my lawn is still nice and green despite the heat and now I get to water for pleasure instead of doing it as a task! I enjoyed bantering with Jon as well, he is a very knowledgeable guy and also very easygoing and chill to talk to.

    I don't want to leave negative reviews because I understand everyone is working hard to make a…read moreliving, but this was the first time I had to stop a contractor after 1.5 days because I was stressed and concerned about the way the work was progressing. I wanted my backyard demoed to install draining and concrete to make it low maintenance and fix draining issues during heavy rains. I felt the materials purchased didn't look right and were also different from what other contractor bids mentioned the material they would use. I even consulted AI and other forums online to make sure my intuition wasn't off. Either way, I don't think these materials purchased were the issue because if I am working with a good contractor, they would be able to either adjust to my request in a respectful manner or explain their approach rather than gaslighting me. First, Tran purchased triple wall HDPE pipes for a very long run for the draining (20+ feet). I assumed we'd be using PVC pipes and that was also the recommendation from most as PVC is more durable and less prone to bellying during the installation process. If issues arise, it's also a better material to snake through rather than triple wall HDPE as it is smoother and more durable. When I asked if the triple wall HDPE pipe could be returned and to use PCV instead, Tran responded as if I were crazy and mentioned the PVC pipe is not for outdoor use. I was taken aback and wasn't sure how to respond to this, I've only seen copper or plastic piping used for my indoor plumbing and there was PVC piping used outside we can see right in front of us as we were talking. Second, it's best not to use 90 degree elbow for my situation, and it's better to use 45 degree elbow to avoid clogging. If you've gone through elementary school, then clearly you can tell the elbow purchased is 90 degrees. I asked Tran if he could use 45, and he responded "These are all 45, you can take this to home depot and check." The elbow clearly looked 90 degrees, so I had to go out to home depot myself, take a picture of the clear difference between the 90 degree elbow he had purchased vs the obvious 45 degree elbow at the store, then he responded, "Ok, let me get the new elbow." This is the second instance of gaslighting that made me feel confused and concerned to trust this contractor to continue work. Third, because the draining was going to be installed underneath concrete, this means it will be challenging to unclog or check for issues if something went wrong in the future. I asked about this and wanted to communicate my desire to install some sort of drain cleanout, but I was cut off and Tran simply stated "I've done this so many times" and never answered my question properly. I felt taken advantage of and disrespected with the gaslighting while working with this contractor. I am spending a lot of money and this is a huge job that needs to be done correctly, as trying to fix plumbing underneath concrete isn't the same as fixing plumbing underneath an indoor sink. The fact that an elbow could not even be purchased properly was the last straw and I did not feel comfortable moving forward. I give 2 stars for showing up each day and working hard to demo the backyard as there was a lot of weeded grass and plants that needed to be removed.

    This is an update review now that we have used Octavio and Pacific Premier Landscaping once again…read moreto complete our homes landscaping all around! Octavio and Pacific Premiere Landscaping is STILL incredible! Extremely professional, responsive and just an all around really nice guy! We had a very large project that included our Front, Side, and sloping back yard. My wife and I, like a lot of couples I'm certain, have design paralysis with that "I don't know, what do you want?" going back and forth with each other endlessly. Octavio has a great eye, and countless times he broke our deadlock saying, "How about this? I think this would look really nice" and when we followed his suggestions we ended up being incredibly happy with the result! That's a huge benefit that you can't put value on, because it keeps a project moving forward with minimal stress. Whenever we had questions, he always replied to our texts instantly, and one of the things I really appreciated about his company is that we never had to line up any of our own specialty contractors (electrical, plumbing etc) to do work. He has every discipline covered and coordinates the scheduling of all of that. I've worked with contractors before where they would inform you they didn't do a type of work and we would have to contract that effort separately. Octavio is not like that and he'll coordinate it all according to how you'd like it to look, or be done. Big thumbs up on that! Payment schedules are very clearly explained and documented. Our project included payments in "phases of work" down payment, forms completed, rebar completed, Completed concrete, electrical and irrigation/plants completed, final approval completed etc. and there was flexibility in the schedule if we wished, which made it much easier at one point while we were travelling. He's very open to discussing whatever makes things go smoothly. We loved how he gave us a lot of help particularly with trees/plants (types, locations) Octavio is very knowledgeable in that area and we were very pleased when he met us at the nursery multiple times to show and help us select plants and trees. His work crews were always very friendly, hard working and meticulous, and he checked in on them constantly to make sure everything was going according to plan. It's very obvious that he wants to make sure there are no surprises, and that work is progressing according to schedule and plans. It was a great pleasure having Octavio and Pacific Premiere Landscaping transform our home! We would use him again without question and in fact have several other projects in the immediate future that we're in the process of discussing. A lot of people will search hard for the lowest price (I would estimate that Octavio's prices are not the "cheapest", but they are much more than fair, and I would argue that there is a HUGE difference between "lowest price" and "value"; that being the quality and experience of the work done for the money spent, and with that in mind, Pacific Premiere is a tremendous value! You get a ton for your Money!

I was confused because it's preexisting and I don't want to change it. He then told me that this was required by the city and I would need a permit! I was astounded because that's a lie! It's not my first deck project so I knew repairs and maintenance do not require a permit. I also received several other quotes from licensed and bonded contractors and no one thought I needed a permit.

Daniel grew up in the bay and worked with his dad in landscaping since he was young. We admire his passion and his dream to open up his own landscape company to continue that legacy and dismantle the bad rep that contractors/landscapers have. Trust me, we've been burned by previous contractors who left the job unfinished with poor craftmanship. We expressed our concerns to Daniel and he assured us that his team of 4 will be with us from beginning to end. Also, Daniel ensured that we can reach out to him anytime and he'll get back to us. He kept his promise and delivered on that! He responds to all our texts and his crew showed up to our home early EVERYDAY for a week. Our backyard project took no more than 7 days to complete - just as promised! During the design phase, Daniel and his designer Carlos would meet with us in the evenings to go over our design requirements and wants. Along the way Daniel gave ideas/recommendations, which worked out for us. Daniel even went with us to the nursery to pick out the plants. Dream Reality pricing is well aligned with what other vendors were charging, but I think their pricing is more reasonable. Daniel even offered to install lights and other stuff for us free of charge. I saw his ambition to grow his business and build good rapport with his clients. That means a lot to us! Overall our pavers, retaining wall, lawn, rocks, and more turned out amazing. We were able to achieve a modern yet simple backyard - it looked pretty close to the inspo pics I sent to them! I highly recommend Dream Reality Landscape for all your landscaping needs!
