Bon Terra completed our backyard project a few weeks ago, and we couldn't be happier. From start…read moreto finish we were impressed with the communication, collaboration, and hard work from Johnny's design, to Isaac and his construction crew. We started the backyard journey by getting 15 bids from landscape construction companies. We had done plenty of home remodels and rebuilds, but never embarked on a backyard landscape project. Bon Terra impressed us immediately, as they were the only company that was up front with design ideas, costs, and time. Johnny was able to design a backyard that fit our aesthetic, and came up with many ideas we never thought of. He was able to make changes as needed, and was always open to work with our own ideas. We found Isaac and his construction crew to be personable, hard working, and punctual. They work four days per week, Tuesday through Friday, which worked great for us. We were appreciative that Isaac was able to roll with the punches when we had some unplanned issues pop up. We could get stressed out or impatient about the "snafus," but Isaac never did. Thank you! The pricing was fair for the quality of work by Bon Terra. I wish they took credit cards, but completely understand why they wouldn't! I have already recommended Bon Terra Landscapes to friends, and anyone asking for a referral.

Two years ago, they completed our upstairs master bedroom addition and remodel, including a beautiful new master bathroom. They also remodeled our entryway and front porch, giving our home fantastic curb appeal and making a great first impression. We are still absolutely loving the results today. The addition exceeded our expectations and has truly transformed both the look and functionality of our home. From start to finish, the team was professional, attentive, and delivered outstanding craftsmanship. The quality of their work has stood the test of time, and we continue to enjoy the improvements every day. What has impressed us even more is the continued support after the project was completed. Recently, we experienced an issue with a tub leak and reached out to John. He responded promptly, sent his plumber to assess the problem, and discovered that the tub fixture was still under warranty. A brand-new replacement fixture was ordered and installed, resolving the issue quickly and professionally. John is excellent with communication, follow-up, and follow-through. He truly stands behind his work and takes care of his customers long after the project is complete. We also have to give a special shout-out to Ladybug, John's friendly dog, who always brought a smile during the project! We highly recommend John G. and G Family Company to anyone looking for a contractor who delivers exceptional craftsmanship, professionalism, reliability, and outstanding customer service.

We hired G Family Construction to execute our Yardzen-designed backyard, and the experience was…read moreexcellent from start to finish. After interviewing multiple contractors, G Family stood out immediately as the only team that came on site, dug into the details, and worked to understand our intent--not just replicate the designs. Their honest, up-front pricing was a major differentiator. We received a clear, comprehensive estimate with everything included, while other bids had many "TBD" items that weren't part of the real number. When I factored in those gaps, G Family was very competitive. They were also incredibly collaborative in helping dial in the details: when certain elements exceeded our budget, they provided practical alternatives and helped create a phased plan so we could add features later. Execution matched the planning. Communication was clear, updates were frequent, and when inevitable snags arose, they took the time to explain options and trade-offs. They even diplomatically guided me away from a bad design choice using their experience--absolutely the right call in hindsight. They also handled HOA-required changes without billing extra or anything like that. G Family isn't the cheapest, but the value is worth it. They were accountable, invested, and genuinely treated the project like it was their own backyard. Beyond the craftsmanship, they're just great, down-to-earth people to work with. Our once-underutilized yard is now a beautiful outdoor living space we use every day. I highly recommend G Family Construction!

What impressed us about Greenport from the very first conversation was their professionalism and attention to detail. Once we started working with them we became more convinced that we'd made the right choice. The best aspect of working the them was their full transparency, starting from the initial contract through the project completion, which helped us stay within our budget. The communication was excellent in all stages of the project. Of course, there were hiccups and misunderstandings but they all were resolved promptly and to our full satisfaction. We've always felt heard and in the center of their attention even though they had several other projects going on at the same time. The crew was very professional and efficient. All the work was completed according to the schedule and in a few cases slightly ahead of it. The quality was was excellent across the board, including the rough work, finish and the custom-built vanity. Overall we got exactly what we wanted without any headaches and at a pretty good value. We will definitely consider working with Greenport again when the need arises.

I was truly impressed with Greenport's team. They went above and beyond in planning, budgeting, quality, and communication. I cannot recommend them highly enough. They had a uniquely detailed project tracking method that I'm only used to seeing in T&M billing. They produced daily logs I could access from anywhere an while I appreciated the detail, it became a lot to track, so they switched to a weekly report that included accomplishments and upcoming tasks. They also provided a project schedule before starting, which was incredibly helpful. They were flexible about product choices and design. Most importantly, their craftsmanship was top-notch. In my experience, some people lose momentum toward the end of a project, but they stayed committed and finished strong. They created their own punch list that covered everything in mine and then some and walked me through each room to ensure everything met my approval. I did have one issue with a drawer a few weeks after they were gone but they came back and fixed it the next day, which is unusually fast after a contractor has gotten their final check. I have to say, regarding pricing, they aren't cheap. They were the second-highest of the initial estimates I received. They provided the estimate for free but they charged to give me a "fixed-price quote", which was well detailed and clear. I don't know if they do this for every project, but they gave me an agreement for a pre-construction planning budget. I was a little bit nervous about paying for a lot of planning and it did extend the timeline for our intended start date by a couple of weeks but they got through it relatively quickly all things considered. It was eye-opening as to why i've seen other GC's charge so much in change orders. Missing details in the plans can be very expensive, and they might try to find some "change order" to recoup costs. But that extra time the guys at Greenport spent helped to get everything done right the first time, on schedule, and on budget, which is a rare thing in construction.

It was a little challenging at first to get hold of them but we finally did and hired them to replace our deck. They did such a phenomenal job and they were so amazing and professional that we kept them around for an extra couple of weeks doing extra projects around the house on our fencing. Their pricing is fair and competitive and outlined up front. We were more than happy and would hire them again for projects in the future. If you have anything you're getting bids for - definitely give them a shot. And take the extra time to reach them. I suggest texting Gary directly and then emailing the office.

This company is slick, with a great showroom, and all the bells and whistles. But, from subcontractors that didn't show up, to materials not ordered on a timely basis, to in-fighting among their staff, this very expensive $80K bathroom remodel circled the drain when it went a month beyond their timeline! We even had to bring to their attention that they had hooked up the two toilets to the HOT WATER LINE. To add insult to injury, due to their accounting error, we ended up paying in full before the project was even near completion. After reading these other reviews, I have to wonder just who completed these other projects??? If we could, we'd love to post the pictures we have of the water from the remodel upstairs flooding our home office below... ooops, they forgot to make sure the waterline had been turned off. Do your homework, and in this economy, get several bids!
