We contacted Paul Taufalele at Zion's Concrete when our first contractor was unable to complete the…read morerather complex job of lifting our 20' X 45' historic commercial storefront, removing the crumbling foundation and pouring a new foundation to straighten and preserve the building another 100 years. Few contractors are willing to take on an unfinished job someone else has botched, but Paul was "excited by the challenge". We hired him on the spot. The next day, his crew cleared all dirt and debris from the neighbor's yard that contractor #1 left for 6 months while blaming another company. We were so glad to have Paul and his energetic and happy crew go to work! He fully excavated after building a safety wall and mono-poured the entire foundation in one day! Our friends came to admire his work and tell us how good it was. (our friends used to work for the city planning department, so they know what they're talking about!). Come see Aurora Design upstairs after October 7th, 2024.

We went with Picture Perfect Landscaping because they appeared to be a nice family run operation…read more It was a disaster. They sent unskilled labor to our house who began tearing up our yard in a rather random manner. One of their labourers insisted on parking his dilapidated truck in our driveway that was leaking oil everywhere. I confronted him and he apologized, but parked in the exact same spot the next day and leaked more oil. He was too lazy to walk up the driveway. They run an amateur operation. Ariel runs the construction operation and Laura translates as he speaks little to no English making communication difficult. He rarely visited the site as they (admittedly) are overbooked and can't handle the work that they have taken on. The final straw was when I came home to a guy digging a crooked trench through our existing landscaping where we wanted a retaining wall (it wasn't even straight, he was killing plants we wanted to keep, and it was in a random location). There were no measurements, plumb lines, or any delineation markers. The guy was just swinging a pick axe. I called a planning meeting and Laura came over with a drawing she had oddly plastized with no dimensions on it that looked like a child drew it. Yes, it was in crayon! We asked for a refund and they refused. Our yard is destroyed and for that we had the privilege of being taken for our $9200.00 deposit. BEWARE!

We really appreciate working with Ariel and Laura. The whole process has been smooth and we are…read moremore than satisfied. Before the job We asked a few landscapers before. Some even directly turned us down. Ariel and Laura produced a promising plan and a quote which we were happy with. We transformed a steep barren slope into flowerbeds with smart irrigation. They brought a brochure and samples so that we can select the materials that we like. During the job The crew came on time everyday. They carried their own mobile toilet so that they didn't need to borrow ours. Laura was very responsive on phone and text. They come regularly every a few days, but consulted us when there were decisions to make. We asked for additional paving during the job. They managed to incorporate that in the schedule. I could not communicate with the workers directly due to language. I didn't find that a problem. They leveled everything, which my previous landscaper never did! After the job They power washed everything and laid grass and seeds for the turf impacted by the job. Their job comes with a 10-year warranty. Laura said the warranty came with the materials and they find no reason not to pass to the customers. I really appreciate that but I haven't used it yet. We decide to work with them again for another project once I have the money.

Michael (sales rep) was very helpful in walking me through the process and working within my budget. The job took no more than 2 days to complete, the team was very respectful and worked quickly. The end product was awesome (i'll attach pictures). But where they won me over was their quick resolve. I have a watering system, which one of the pipes under turf area, broke during the job. I found this out after the job was complete when trying it, which was over the weekend. Welp after letting Michael know, first thing Monday they dispatched someone to the house, who dug up the turf, found the broken pipe, fixed it, and re-laid the turf. I'm very happy with the work they've done and the business they run. Thank you!

From the initial meeting with Wesley, owner of Aguiar Pavers, he demonstrated a clear vision and…read morethorough knowledge of how to meet the many challenges of replacing my old 75' retaining wall using the highest standards in the industry to see this project through. The proposal was emailed promptly by Maria, the business manager, who excelled in communication with all parties throughout the project. Having several trustworthy proposals on my desk and all within a similar price range there was one clear winner...Aguiar Pavers. All the important components were there including high quality materials. This company had my confidence and my business. The crew of 7, led by foreman Anderson, did outstanding work. As foreman, Anderson made onsite decisions that were brilliant and showed respect for my neighbors and my property. He worked right alongside the crew. The work progressed very quickly from demolition, and tree removal, to materials delivery, through excavation for the footings, quality drainage, wall building with backfill. They even moved my 6'x8' shed out of the way to build and then restored it to its original place! The crew clearly had a lot of respect for Anderson. They showed up early morning, worked a long day sometimes in the cold rain of December and never slowed their steady pace down. They tidied up the site at the close of each day and mitigated damage to existing pathways by putting plywood down to protect from heavy wheelbarrow loads. With the large crew my project was complete in 4 days! Nothing short of miraculous! I am very grateful for the work Aguiar Pavers did and highly recommend this company! 1st class, honest, knowledgeable!

* HIGHLY RECOMMENDED * if you want to save time and money! :)…read more I sent out a service request with a few pictures for bids on leaf raking (front yard, back yard, side walk, driveway) around my mom's house. A&M was one of the first who responded and with a very competitive quote. There are providers who would only do in-person quotes which would waste a lot of my time if I were to have to drive there just for a bid. Some quotes are straight-up dishonest and overpriced. Compared to these, A&M stands out as the best option, and I've have no regrets hiring them! His crew came out and did a fantastic job without supervision! To summarize, A&M were able to deliver service that I'd consider efficient without wasting time going back-and-forth. - quote accurately and competitively based on pictures and details - quick and easy scheduling - effective messaging and communication - getting the job done - legit invoicing (through Intuit) I am definitely bookmarking A&M Landscape for my future needs.

So strange... got a bid to lay some mulch in our yard and approved the work the day I received it…read more Got a response the same day to let me know they'll check their schedule and let me know when they'll arrive. Nothing for a week so I reached out and said they'll schedule the following week and they'll get back to me with a firm date. The week they were supposed to arrive, got nothing so I reached back out. Got another response saying she would get back to me first thing the following morning to confirm the date. Crickets... Wasted over 2 weeks waiting but, in the end, I guess they didn't want the work. I gave up and moved onto a more competent and professional company to do the work. Very frustrating.

After removing the concrete, replacing the rotted wood, he built us a small deck area which gives us larger lateral space as a door step compared to the small concrete step. A marked improvement over just the moisture fix and rot repair. This was a pretty significant job and our home is very unique in structure which created many challenges. As a homeowner invested in a major renovation project, I had some pedantic requirements and Jorge was empathetic to all of them. The work was permitted and passed inspection with king county.

We hired A-1 Stone to remove the concrete driveway and retaining wall, and then to rebuild the driveway with pavers and the retaining wall with concrete blocks. Additionally, proper drainage was installed behind the retaining wall. The work was performed by the company's owner, Paul Singh, along with two of his employees. Remarkably, A-1 Stone completed all the work in just three days, and the results are excellent. Everything looks great, and Paul and his team were a pleasure to work with. I would definitely consider contracting them again. I do have two (minor) recommendations for A-1 Stone to improve: Website Improvement: The company's website is somewhat lacking. It's difficult to see examples of their work or to assess their experience with specific types of projects. A portfolio showcasing past work would be very beneficial. Product Variety: The selection of colors and products they offered was rather limited. Other companies provided brochures featuring a range of stone colors and types, while A-1 Stone only offered a single option for our retaining wall: grey concrete blocks. Overall, it was a relief to work with A-1 Stone. They completed the job efficiently with great results, and there were no hassles or problems. Furthermore, both Paul and his employees spoke English, which made communication much easier, especially since many contractors employ workers who only speak Spanish or Portuguese.

Throughout the process he and his crew were very professional and respectful. We felt like they treated our project as if it was for their own property. One of our gates had to be removed for access and they were able to rebuild it as good as new. Some of the yard was a bit torn up as a result of the machinery but Paul offered to add top soil and even spread the grass seed and peat moss I had on hand! We had neighbors walk by and compliment on how great it looked while they were still completing it. I would absolutely recommend Paul and wouldn't hesitate to use him again for future projects.

Everything after that was a giant disappointment however. We have spent 100's of thousands of dollars and a year later we have problems that are still unresolved. Months go by with no word from them. They have made commitments and then don't follow through. There are piles of debris, boxes and scrap material that have been left next to our front walk for months. They left a large area of exposed Tyvec unfinished for so long we got a complaint letter from our HOA. We deeply regret selecting this firm for our project.

Seventeen years later, it still looks just as beautiful, which says a lot about the quality of their design and craftsmanship. Around 2014, we brought them back for a front yard project that included a gorgeous stone wall, garden beds, and irrigation. Once again, the result was stunning. Now, in 2025, we've added even more outdoor lighting--tree uplights and additional pathway lights--and Malone's delivered the same outstanding service as always. For our latest ptojucr, Vincent's initial visit to the careful installation and fine-tuning, everything was handled with professionalism, attention to detail, and grace. Malone hires only the best in the profession. I couldn't be happier with how it all turned out. If you're considering any outdoor work--landscaping, hardscapes, lighting, or irrigation--I highly recommend Malone's Landscaping. They are true professionals who take pride in every project.
