From the very first visit, Edgar was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He took the time to answer our questions, offer suggestions, and explain our options. What I really appreciated was that he didn't just give us an estimate and disappear. Throughout the project, I saw him stop by multiple times to check on the progress, talk with his crew, and make sure everything was being done properly. The entire team was friendly, respectful, hardworking, and professional. I'll admit, when I saw sections of our beautiful St. Augustine grass being lifted and all the dirt from the digging, I got a little nervous. It was obvious that a lot of work was going into the project. But when they finished, I was honestly shocked. The grass looked amazing, the yard looked beautiful, and it was as if nothing had ever been disturbed . They even cleaned and washed down the surrounding concrete, leaving everything looking neat and spotless. You would never know how much work had gone into the installation. The new sprinkler system is working perfectly, and it's clear that Edgar and his team take pride in their work. If you're looking for reliable, professional irrigation or landscaping services in the Pasadena/Altadena area, I highly recommend Edgar and his team. We are extremely grateful for their hard work and couldn't be happier with the results.

We hired them for a full backyard Reno with full wall of ficus trees, full DG backyard with gravel edges, and a wood fence. Everything was going smoothly with scheduling and communication. When the actual work got started, I noticed the DG was not high-quality. It contained a lot of large rocks. Also, they were not digging out enough dirt before laying the DG. I had to bring that up to the foreman and they did dig up some more dirt before laying the DG. When the work was done, a foreman did a quick walk-through with me and I thought everything looked good. We were told not to walk on the wet DG for a day or two. So two days later when I did a better inspection, I started to notice a lot of shotty work. Specifically with the bender board dividing the gravel and I noticed that they used really small nails for the wooden fence. They did come back a month later to fix the DG because there were areas that were "bouncy", as if not enough DG was laid down. They had to dig up big rocks that were preventing the DG from compacting and they laid more DG on some areas. They also tried to fix some bender board problems, but they did a really horrible job. Three months later, some wood planks on our wood fence start curving and popping up. I called the company because our DG and our fence are under a year warranty. Jake asked me to email him with photos and he said he would call back to schedule a day for repair. Since then I have not heard back from them; they have completely ghosted me. I waited a month then I started calling and no one will pick up the phone. I've left messages and I sent text messages to project manager, Amanda, who was great at communication at first, but now has completely ghosted me as well. Meanwhile, we're still paying monthly for this backyard that is falling apart way too quickly. I'm going to just hire someone to fix the fence before it damages further. I would not recommend them again. Completely overpriced for what you get.

We discussed what we wanted and he also gave us some helpful opinions on what would look good on our property. We also discussed an appropriate budget for the work that we wanted - straight to the point, very professional, no beating around the bush! Later on, Bryce sent us a detailed quote of the artificial grass that we wanted to put in and the drought tolerant plants that we wanted in the backyard and frontyard. Once we agreed on the scope of work, we signed the contract and scheduled with Bryce when they would start the work. On the first day of work, they sent like 6-8 guys to demo the backyard! They were very punctual and worked really hard! By day 3, they were about 90% done with our project! Throughout the entire process, Bryce did an excellent job with keeping us informed of the progress via text. He was very responsive and answered any questions that we had in a timely fashion. He was also super knowledgeable about plants! At the end of the project, we did a final walkthrough of the frontyard and backyard, and the artificial grass, drought tolerant plants, and pea gravel looked perfect! We also had some drip irrigation installed that worked perfectly! All in all, working with Bryce and his team was a 10/10 experience, would hire them again for any future landscaping projects!

He offered suggestions without being pushy and helped me visualize the potential of my project. Jason provided his estimate the following day as promised. He was proactive in looking for ways we could descope my project to fit within my budget. He made himself available to discuss modifications over the phone, and responded to my texts and emails promptly.

The finished project is beautiful, and our project lead, Gasim G., was responsible, accountable, and fully committed to every promise he made. Although Black Diamond's bid was the highest of the four onsite estimates we received, we chose them because they provided the most detailed proposal, a firm written commitment, and a strong, verifiable reputation. Looking back, we are thrilled with that decision. One thing I learned during this project is that proper ground preparation accounts for at least 80% of the work and complexity required to build a durable paver driveway that can support vehicle traffic. Even the highest-quality pavers cannot compensate for a poorly prepared foundation. Black Diamond removed our cracked concrete driveway and excavated a significant amount of soil. To our surprise, we discovered that the previous concrete contractor had cut corners and skipped proper ground preparation entirely. Black Diamond installed a thick base of gravel and sand, then carefully compacted and leveled the area before laying the pavers. Once the foundation was properly built, the paver installation itself was relatively straightforward. As with any construction project, unexpected challenges arose along the way. Gasim kept us informed with daily updates and managed the project as if it were his own home. He paid close attention to underground gas lines during excavation, designed a solution to route water from our downspouts through an underground drain pipe before installation, and carefully addressed tree roots, the side-gate transition, and connections to our existing landscaping. The crew even removed random buried metal debris they uncovered during excavation. These issues could have caused significant problems down the road if they had not been handled properly. We also struggled to choose the right hardscape ground cover to transition between our existing Italian cypress trees and the new pavers. Gasim went above and beyond by visiting several rockery suppliers and bringing back five different material samples for us to compare. The final result looks fantastic and ties everything together beautifully. The entire process--from contract signing to payment scheduling--was streamlined through an easy-to-use online system. Black Diamond was professional, organized, transparent, and committed to delivering exactly what they promised. We highly recommend Gasim and Black Diamond to anyone considering a paver, driveway, or landscaping project.

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!
