Of the three companies presenting estimates, Mountainscape happened to be the lowest. Highly recommend.

To that point my last job came in $500 lower as "it didn't take as long as I thought it would." Just to be clear a contractor came in under budget *mind blown!* In the end a small operation with good people who do good quality work without cutting corners. I am a fan.

After checking a few other companies I felt good about going with Rainbow. The price was very competitive and I only found good things about the company. I sent Jim a message to confirm a date. Jim showed up on the day we agreed with his crew, They were well prepared and although he found a couple of surprises his took them in stride. I watched him and his crew work and I could tell that he was very skilled in what he does. He took great pains to grade the driveway to ensure correct drainage. He spent hours compacting to avoid soft spots in the driveway years from now. When the job was complete his edges were clean and straight and surface was smooth with no ridges. His crew was respectful of my property and Jim listened to my concerns and exceeded my expectations. I do not hesitate to recommend Rainbow Paving.

Eco Paving did good work on my patio and the installation crew was professional, courteous, and…read morehardworking. My issue was not with the workers -- it was with the pricing structure and sales process. My patio was only 263 sq. ft., but I was told they have a 300 sq. ft. minimum charge. I was also presented with three grades of rubber surfacing ranging from approximately $10 to $18 per sq. ft. On top of that, I was charged $600 for "prep work," which the written quote described as including pressure washing, weed removal, grinding, crack sealing, edging, weed treatment, and general cleaning. In reality, the prep work consisted of less than 30 minutes of light pressure washing. No grinding, weed removal, crack sealing, edging, or other significant prep was required or performed. When I raised concerns with management, instead of simply acknowledging that the minimum charge may not have made sense for a small patio like mine, I received a lengthy explanation about employee wages, Vancouver operating costs, truck expenses, and equipment costs. I was even asked how I thought they should change their business model, which I found inappropriate. To their credit, management did eventually reduce the bill by $200 after discussion. However, I still believe the pricing and minimum charges should have been explained far more clearly upfront, particularly for smaller jobs where the actual prep work may be minimal. Bottom line: the finished product looks good, but I strongly recommend that customers ask detailed questions about minimum charges, prep fees, and exactly what work will actually be performed before signing anything. There are other companies out there, so get multiple quotes and compare carefully.

I just have Eco Paving paved the driveway and side paths, back yard areas for two of my properties…read morerecently. I have mix feeling about this company. One of the sale representative over measured the areas and it was remeasured upon my request, it turns out about it was about 10% more than the actual area. However, the installation staff and the office staff were great and courteous. The rubber paving is the perfect solution for both of my properties for covering all the old, cracked concrete and different materials used over the years. I was considering different options such as concrete resurfacing, low profile decking and asphalt, and finally decided to try the rubber paving as it is most economical and best looking in my opinion. It gives the surface a soft look and also soft to walk on. The only issue is that the cost of repair is extremely expensive. What happen was my gardener chipped off some area on top of the stairs by pushing the lawnmower through. The damage areas were a size of a quarter, only a few on the stairs, Eco Paving charged me $550 + tax for the repair that took less then 30 minutes by one staff. It is most 10% of the total cost for the project. I found it quite unacceptable. Talked to the staff in the office but in no avail. The expensive repair cost is my only concerned. Otherwise, it would have been a 5 stars review.
