I had a great experience with this company and very happy with the work they did on our front yard…read more I originally thought we only had it in our budget to update our walkway and front steps. JC went above and beyond and we were able to redo our entire driveway with pavers, removed our old tree and grass and replaced it with turf and also planted a new tree as well as installed a new irrigation system. He also added some design elements that I didn't even think of and everything turned out great and within our budget. He had great communication throughout the process and his team was able to completed the work within 1 week!

This company is very fast and JC always maintained strong communication. There were some minor…read moredisappointments, but overall we were happy with the work that was done. My wife and I have a new-build that required additional landscaping of our backyard. We eventually decided to go with California Outdoor Living after reading all their positive reviews on yelp. In addition their quote was very competitive if not the best when looking at other contractors. We already had a design in mind for JC which made the process very quick. Although there was some misunderstanding with the design and drains throughout the process, JC was always responsive with his texts and quick to make adjustments. The moment we got our design approved by our HOA, the construction happened VERY FAST. We emailed California Outdoor living on a Wednesday evening of our approval. The very next day (Thursday), JC arrived to go over the outline. I do appreciate how fast things were done, but it was almost to a fault at times. They were ready to go by the next day but my wife and I didn't feel like we had discussed the plan and execution thoroughly enough. On Friday the construction workers were already digging out our backyard. They spoke only Spanish so communication was very difficult to ensure if our plan was executed appropriately. By Saturday all of the pavers were laid out. Construction was incredibly fast but because of that some details were lost in translation. We discussed with JC that we wanted an 11x14 ft paver island. However the final dimensions was 12.5 x 12.5 feet. We also wanted all the walls of our backyard to be lined with turf. However the paver border ran too close to one of the walls, that putting turf did not make sense. They only left 1 inch between the wall and the paver (see attached image). We appreciate how fast the work was done. The overall work was great BUT not exactly what we wanted. We felt rushed with the whole construction process. However everything was done in less than a week which was incredible! In addition, once the turf was laid out JC noted that window reflections from both our neighbors and our own windows would cause damage to the turf. He informed us this can happen sometimes. Going back to rushing things and not being thorough, we wished JC took the time to look at our backyard and factor in this possibility. If we had known the reflections could damage this area we would have changed our turf design. At the end of the day they are just executing our design, but it's these minor things that left us feeling like our backyard could have been better. However we are still very thrilled with the overall speed and communication done throughout the process! Would still recommend this company. But these small critiques are definitely something to keep in mind for future clients.

We hired SOS Fencing to replace our side yard fence and build a new garden wall along the side of…read moreour property. The project included a custom steel-framed redwood fence with a matching gate, and the finished result looks great and feels extremely solid. From the estimate through installation, communication was clear and the team was easy to work with. The crew showed up on time, worked efficiently, and kept the job site clean throughout the project. The steel-framed construction makes the fence very sturdy and the redwood panels give it a clean, modern look. The gate was carefully installed and operates smoothly, and the garden wall also turned out great and really improved the overall appearance of the space. We're very happy with the quality of the work and would recommend SOS Fencing to anyone looking for a high quality fence installation or masonry work.
