The work was scheduled quickly and questions answered promptly. On the day of the install, the crew worked very hard and efficiently to stay on schedule. Any complications or concerns were brought to my attention and I couldn't be happier on how everything came out. Beautiful new walkway. Professional work and results. Would highly recommend Arias Concrete.

The price was within the range of other quotes as we always get 3 for any work we have done. Alvaro and his crew showed up on time and completed the job as agreed. They did an excellent job on our concrete with base rock, rebar & 4in thick concrete. He came back a few days later to remove the form boards and before he left, he was in the street sweeping up the concrete dust. Now that's service! From start to finish, he kept us informed via texts. He is bonded and insured and is very articulate (unlike others we interviewed). You get what you pay for. We will use Arias Concrete for all future jobs. We would rate him 10 stars if we could.

I can't share enough positive things about Steve and the crew at Avon…read more Our home is relatively old for the area and has a specific look and feel. After seeing some stone work at a friends in Lamorinda we were referred to Steve and Avon and the work didn't disappoint. They were 100% on target with the style, their bid (when was the last time you didn't have to do a change order?!) and their layout and leveling recommendations. Also, and very importantly, the crew was always on time, patient with parking challenges, gracious and open to engage. The lead onsite took detailed notes, and the team was methodical and diligent. We have them coming back for two more projects and would refer them first for stone and masonry work. Project: front retaining wall customer cut around coast live oak roots. Back path with steps and landing in pavers, pergola patio leveled and filled with cross hatch brick, back patio in pavers with customer cut edging for grass, brick retaining wall and leveling for new sod, hothbub pad and walls customer cut to fit tub, planter box in pavers. They nailed the whole thing. So good.

We chose Avon Construction to replace our failing retaining walls. Steve came out to the house and…read morethoroughly explained how his crew would securely replace the walls. Throughout the job, Steve and his crew were friendly, very knowledgeable, hard-working, efficient. They kept us informed of each step and what to expect. They were very dependable: consistently on time, there when they said they would be there and completed the work in the time frame they estimated with excellent results. The walls looked great and there were no unexpected delays and they kept it all within budget. We highly recommend Avon Construction. Working with the entire company was a joy. From the office staff to the owner Steve to Oso and the other workers, they clearly know what they are doing and have a desire to do it right. Fantastic experience!

I hired Michael and his team for a large hardscape project. To his credit, he has at times gone…read moreabove and beyond -- for example, hauling away construction debris that wasn't his to keep the site clean. But in general, he has not been able to provide a crew that delivers work matching the quality you'd expect for the price. His crew frequently doesn't show up, and he often doesn't know where they are. When they are on site, they drink alcohol and smoke heavily. One day they appeared to have thrown a party, leaving food and beer bottles scattered across my yard for me to clean up. They've also taken items from the job site belonging to the homeowners and never replaced them. They've made decisions that put people's safety at risk, with no urgency to fix them. The main steps to my yard had to be redone because they were all different sizes and sloping down. Instead of making a plan to ensure a rapid repair, they tore up the stains and left the site a hazard. He then asked for payment for materials and tools to redo his mistakes. Michael doesn't seem to have real control over his crew and only shows up when an issue is escalated or when he needs payment. As homeowners, we shouldn't have to micromanage a contractor this closely just to know what his own crew is doing or when to expect them. On multiple occasions, his crew told him they were on site when they clearly were not. We have cameras. He also asked me to cover the cost of tools he should already have as a professional in this trade -- for instance, a wet stone-cutting tool to control concrete dust and protect his workers from inhaling it. Despite asking multiple times, his crew seemed resentful when I requested wet cuts, even for their safety. At this point, having already been paid roughly 90% of the total cost, it seems he doesn't have the funds left to finish the job and is now stuck. Like other reviewers here, I've been more than patient -- but this project is months overdue and still incomplete.

I'd like to share my great experience using Den Defenders, as I recently had a security door…read moreinstalled by them in November of 2024. When I began my search for a security door install company, it was quite difficult, because I live in Vallejo, and I didn't see many reputable options. I eventually stumbled upon Den Defenders during my search, and after doing some research on them, and seeing lots of positive reviews, I decided to call, and schedule an appointment with them. For my initial consultation appointment, I was set up with their awesome employee Mike Carson. Mike was the best to work with, as he was a very professional individual, who seemed quite knowledgeable about the products, and services that Den Defenders offered. Mike helped me find the perfect solution for my home, and family's needs, as we needed a door that would allow more airflow into Our home for the hot summers, while keeping out insects, and also being very secure, so that we can sleep without worry of any intruders entering our home. Mike recommended the Viewguard security door, as it appeared to meet all of my family's needs. After Mike educated us on the door, its quality, and its features, We were sold, so we ordered one, and set up an appointment for the install date. When it was install day, My family was very excited, because when we first seen the door, it looked like a very high-quality, and sturdy unit. The install took about a few hours, as my home needed some stucco modification for the door to fit, but the Den Defenders crew had all of the tools/ equipment to get the job done, and they even kept the area clean as they worked, which was a huge relief, and very professional on their part. I'd like to point out that I couldn't be more happier, and satisfied with my purchase, and I would highly recommend this company to anyone in the market for a high-quality security door installation. Before ending my review, I'd like to personally say a big thank you to Mike Carson for setting everything up, and ensuring a very satisfactory experience for me, and my family. I'd also like to thank the rest of the Den Defenders team for doing an exceptional job (I've included a picture in my review of the two crew members who did my install, and they were awesome, and very professional as well!). If I had to sum up my experience in a single phrase to promote the use of this company, I'd say that "The Den Defenders team delivers a quality product, and top-notch customer service." Thank you Den Defenders, on a job well done!

Due to the difficulty and risk involved for excavation, it was hard to find a contractor to take on the job but from my initial consult with Victor, him and his team noted their experience with these scenarios and he was confident they can do it in less than a day. On excavation day they brought the necessary equipment and tools and were very cautious about the gas pipe. They ended up finishing the job in less than a half day! To follow up, we realized we needed more excavation at the apron of the driveway and Victor again came to the rescue and excavated that for us a week later. I sincerely appreciate the time efficiency and skill that Victor and his team have in getting our excavation needs completed. I highly recommend Victor and his team and will always reach out to him first when we need more excavation for future projects. Thanks Victor!
