Very pleased with the work done in our backyard. Had a pool and outdoor kitchen installed and it looks amazing. All of the work was done in a timely manner and the quality is great. We couldn't have asked for anything better. We highly recommend using this company for any outdoor renovation. read more

My spouse and I used R&R Backyard Remodeling to do a complete yard renovation. While they didn't do the design itself (we used a different design team for this), they did a great job bringing the vision to life. Overall, we were quite satisfied with R&R's work. They finished in a reasonable amount of time and within budget. Ron and team were very pleasant to work with. They were responsive with communications. They answered our questions and addressed any issues promptly. If there were parts of our design that didn't work in reality, they were able to give reasonable alternate solutions. We're happy with how things turned out and would recommend them for landscape construction projects. read more

R&R has done outstanding work on our backyard remodeling project last year, it was a complete rebuild of our front and backyard, and adding an outdoor kitchen. Quality of work is outstanding and they pay attention to every detail. As with any project, not everything went smooth. Along the way our project manager Tamir did great communicating with us and adjusting the course as needed. I have delayed this review by a year to put a time test to their work. After a full year, our landscaping still looks brand new and only routine maintenance was needed. I highly recommend R&R to take care of your landscaping project no matter how complex it is. read more

Ron and team did a tremendous job remodeling our backyard space. The team worked with us to put together a very thoughtful design taking into account our goals, how the space could be best utilized as well as incorporating design elements from our indoor spaces to make a seamless transition. What stood out to me during the entire process was the responsiveness and communication. Even after the project was finished Ron had been extremely responsive, making it really feel like a long term partner as they stand behind their work read more

R&R built our deck with a pergola, and we couldn't be happier! We did our research and interviewed several companies before choosing R&R for the following reasons: 1) they offered a full solution (deck + pergola), 2) they handled the city permits which gave us peace of mind, and 3) they arranged tours of properties of their completed projects (with the owners' permission) so we could see materials and features and inspect the workmanship up close. Special shout-out to their project manager Tamir who is an excellent communicator and a pleasure to work with! The timeline ran longer than we expected, but, in fairness, some delays (like permitting) are outside anyone's control, so set your expectations accordingly. The design phase was smooth, the company provided clear renderings which we approved. Construction wasn't without a hiccup or two, but all issues were eventually resolved. The finished result is fantastic! (I hope the photos speak for themselves.) The deck feels like a natural extension of the house, same level as indoors and matching the flooring color, so the indoor-outdoor flow is seamless. Build quality feels rock solid. The pergola's motorized louvers are operated by a remote, and the pergola is effectively watertight when the louvers are closed. Our neighbors saw the deck, loved it, and signed up with R&R for their backyard project. I think that speaks volumes. We're very happy clients and we are planning to hire R&R again next season for a front-yard project. read more

After working on a design with a 3rd party, we reached out to several landscapers and R&R made a competitive offer. Our contacts were Tamir (design, sales) and JR (project management), who worked with Luis (build team). The project was primarily about hardscaping. Construction lasted longer than initially stated, in part due to material re-orders, and elevation making for challenging stairs / retaining wall work. But R&R was able to realize our vision and we were happy with the end result. They also handled warranty work promptly and professionally. read more

Timely response and good collaboration on a backyard hardscaping project we did with them. As with any construction project there were a few issues that came up but R&R provided satisfactory resolution. Very pleasant team. Would recommend. read more

R&R recently completed a project to replace our old concrete patio with pavers, replace a concrete side path with paver stepping stones, cover a retaining wall with stacked stone facing & cap, and add lighting. The work looks amazing and overall we are pleased with it, as well as the communication and responsiveness during the project. There were definitely some challenges during the project, some due to us changing our minds regarding paver type, and then a delay in sourcing samples, and some due to R&R. Our project manager, JR, was fantastic to work with and made sure up until the very end (and beyond!) that we were happy with the work and outcome. However when he got Covid the project veered off track. We felt the work suffered without the necessary oversight and some things had to be redone which they were but it wasn't ideal. The upfront design phase was very helpful for my husband who had a hard time visualizing the outcome and the designs were very useful to refer back to, as well as the detailed plan. Unfortunately our project didn't include plants and so we did those ourselves. In retrospect I wish I'd had R&R execute the whole vision of our project. read more

I would highly recommend R&R for any outdoor remodeling project. We had a fairly large space in our backyard after having our pool removed. We decided to go all out and hire a design company. We used the final design to get bids on our projects from various companies. Ron from R&R stood out as very professional, knowledgeable and was not pushy. He gave me a sense of confidence from the beginning and so we decided to work with them. Comparing my project with those in the neighborhood and friends from the bay area, our project is considered a fairly large project. The project included LOTS of pavers, tiles and concrete pouring, high end kitchen and shed, lights and landscaping. In the end, the final results that R&R created was spectacular and looks like the original design we had envisioned. One thing that stood out was that they always try their best to make me happy. There were many incidents and challenges that were out of R&R's control and they just rolled with the challenges and just got things done. As an example, halfway through the project, I suddenly decided to get city permits for everything (gas, electrical, and drainage) which required quite a bit of rework and slowed down the momentum of the project. Ron never complained about it and just worked with me on this new direction I decided to take. Another HUGE plus for me was that they used a group in WhatsApp for project management. I'm pretty detail oriented so I had many questions and requests throughout the life of the project. With the WhatsApp group, I had access to the team all the time. It would have been such a challenge if I had to use text messages or email to convey all of my requests. We are so glad that we ended up working with R&R. read more

R&R redid our cedar deck that had gotten damaged by a fast-growing tree because it was not built properly by the original contractors. R&R were one of very few companies we reached out to who had the expertise to properly layout the new deck, and took the time to accommodate our wish to reuse as much of our existing cedar as possible. Ours was a relatively small job -- just reframing, sanding, and staining a deck, plus adjusting a misaligned fence, but R&R nevertheless treated us like an important client. Unlikely most contractors who require chasing by phone and text, R&R is very organized and uses a WhatsApp group that you can message any time. Our project manager JR was thoughtful and kind, and the lead framer Luis was very skillful. Ron came by for the initial quote, as well as few other times to make sure any concerns I had were addressed. R&R's team is very responsive and even offered suggestions for our deck to look even better. For example, we had a problem with one of our fences that I didn't think could be fixed but JR and Luis chatted, and came up with a solution which I'm very happy about! The R&R team really do want to make sure you are satisfied with everything, even if it means that they have to come back to perfect something. In our case, it was some sanding/staining and even though it extended the time on the project, I appreciated that they were honest and hardworking on making this a successful project! We will recommend R&R to all our friends with backyard improvement needs! read more

I highly recommend R&R Backyard Remodeling for any landscaping project. Their communication, quality of work and attention to detail is unparalleled in the industry. R&R was able to build the backyard of our dreams, both on schedule and within our budget. After shopping around our landscape design to several highly rated landscaping companies on Yelp, R&R was the only company who took the time to meet with us in person. Ron and Tamir reviewed our initial design, surveyed the yard and provided us a competitive and detailed quote within a week. R&R completely owned the permitting process and worked with the city to submit and approve a building permit within 3 months. Once the project started, R&R had a team of highly skilled laborers, (led by Luis), working 6 days a week. Ron and Tamir frequently visited the job site and were able to accommodate several minor change orders as the project progressed. Once the hardscape was complete, Raul started the fabrication of an outdoor kitchen that included a TV wall, electric fireplace, sink, mini fridge and ice-maker. Raul worked tirelessly to manufacture and level a custom steel frame for the kitchen. And despite an aggressive deadline, R&R passed every inspection and was able to finish the project on time. R&R was a pleasure to work with and I would strongly recommend them for any outdoor project. Ron, Tamir and Ronelle were extremely responsive throughout the entire project. Luis, Raul and their laborers were experienced, hardworking, respectful and always on time. We truly could not be any happier with the result. R&R constructed a beautiful outdoor living space that our family will cherish forever. read more

We worked with R&R Backyard Remodeling to convert our small backyard lawn into dryscape to require less water but still be a nice space for our two small dogs. They were transparent throughout the process, finished the job as specified, and cleaned up everything. I expect to work with them again on future projects. read more

R&R was super quick to respond and provide us with a quote for a new patio. We set the date and were told that the work would completed within a week. It took us many calls and constant following up to ensure they actually came every day to do the work. No proactive communication. Prices weren't competitive (the same quotes we got from other companies) but the company changed the contract from the quote for the same price (they omitted a few items). We got them to complete everything but it was a battle. The patio looked OUTSTANDING, absolutely beautiful. For about 2 months.... It now looks like it's 10-15 years old and I'm realizing I'll need to hire another company to redo Huge disappointment that costed thousands of dollars. read more

When we needed our deck to be redone as the previous one had dry rotted, we went looking to see who would be a good candidate to do the work. We got a few estimates, and while R&R was not the cheapest, they were the most professional and worked with us to get a design we were happy with. It started with Tamir coming over to look at the site in order to provide an initial estimate. After receiving the estimate, we had some questions which were promptly answered, allowing us to quickly get the process started. After deciding to go ahead, Tamir came back a few days later with tile samples as well as available grout colors for us to look over and decide as to the type of tile and pattern we wanted. After making a decision, Tamir took care of having the materials ordered, and once they came in, work was scheduled to begin. Demolition and construction went by quickly, and in no time was the new deck ready. The quality of the work was excellent, especially the tile work. It looked so nice that we decided to redo a step that led to the door of a bedroom so that it would match the new deck instead of the old. During all this, Tamir made sure we were happy with the work being done, and he wasn't satisfied until the work both met his expectations as well as our expectations. read more

What an amazing experience with R&R Backyard Remodeling! I would highly recommend Ron and his team to anyone looking to bring their vision to reality. In our case we had a vision for how we wanted our pergola to be built but all we had was a picture to go on. Ron was very patient and took his time understanding our requirements while also thoughtfully bringing his expertise and insight. The end result is a high quality finished project that is now the centerpiece of our backyard for us to gather with friends and family. Thank you Ron, Sonia, Ronelle, Mike and everyone that helped bring it to life!!! read more

Ron, Maryna, JR, Luis and the entire team at R&R did an amazing job designing and building our dream backyard! Our 14K sq ft lot had been an untamed jungle for years, even more so after we completed a project to expand the house. From the beginning, they listened carefully to what was important to us and created a unique, modern design that matched our lifestyle. They were up front with expected costs, which helped us budget and prioritize different features. As the project unfolded, we had frequent touch points so that we were up to date on how things were progressing. They were also responsive when we had new ideas mid stream, offering suggestions and guidance as we collaboratively fine tuned the final touches. The yard turned out better than we could have imagined, and everyone from the kids, dog, friends and our extended family love dining, lounging and playing in the yard. Thank you R&R - we would recommend them to anyone looking to transform their yard into a California paradise! read more

I highly recommend R&R to you and give them a call! I'm so lucky I came across them while searching for my yard project. I trusted them with my front and backyard and am very happy with the outcome. Everyone is professional and their skills level is top notch. They were quick, clean, efficient, and Ron was always there to oversee and communicate effectively with the process. My experience throughout the process was positive. I was struggling to figure out my vision with the yard because I had specific components I wanted for functionality. R&R understood and was able to complete my vision. Ronelle was the first person I spoke with and I'm so glad we were able to set up a consultation appointment. After that, Ron, Mayrna, Luis, and their ENTIRE team created a beauiful space. I cannot thank them enough. read more

Some rude guy came over to give us the estimate. Was angry that he could not find our house. Without going into any details just blurred out a random price for front yard pavers. Would not recommend them for any work read more

Ron worked with us at every stage of our (quite large) landscaping project, with beautiful results that surpassed our expectations. Both Ron and his partner Tamir spent much time out of the office to meet us at home and at various vendors to select materials that appealed to us, while providing expert advice all the way, and working through various options to meet our budget. Apart from the great back and forth of exchanging ideas for the plans and selecting materials, the supervision and execution of the landscaping was (thankfully) completely hands-off for us. The work crew were skilled experts with the right tools for the job (including multiple construction vehicles) They worked hard, efficiently, and completed the project in the scheduled time, with complete clean up at the end. Everyone who has seen our landscaping is amazed at the professional look and feel of our new outdoor living area. What is amazing is the attention to detail in design and actual construction, for example, the different feel in the various areas of "outside rooms", the geometric precision and levelness of the extensive patio area, and how flat they managed to build the retaining wall of boulders behind our outdoor fireplace. In summary, I would strongly recommend R&R Backyard Remodeling for your landscaping project, keeping in mind that (as always) you get what you pay for. If you want to realize your dreams on a project, while being secure to know that the results will look completely professional, choosing R&R Backyard Remodeling is the way to go. I would highly recommend read more

I'm absolutely delighted to share my appreciation for r&r backyard remodeling. Let me tell you, my experience was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very start, our project manager Tamir made sure every step was a collaborative journey. Communication was great, the team of laborers were clean, quick and respectful and the job turn around was about 1-2 weeks give or take. They installed 320 sq ft of Belgard Catalina stone pavers with a charming red brick border (It's like they knew my aesthetic dreams) A custom outdoor kitchen with fiberglass cabinets, grill, sink, mini fridge, and drawers -- it's become the heart of my gatherings. Approx 20 low voltage lights (Pure magic in the evenings) Lastly, a 165 sq ft freestanding pergola with a lattice roof. It's my personal oasis. r&r, and Tamir at the helm, turned my ideas into a reality beyond my imagination. My backyard is now my forever happy place. read more

Their timely response was refreshing as I had contacted several backyard remodeling businesses with delayed or no response. Tamir, the project manager, came to my house the next business day and spent over an hour inspecting/ measuring my large back yard making informed suggestions. From their portfolio (on an iPad) I could see an assortment of landscaping/pool/ lighting. I was definitely excited to get my project started! Unfortunately, I had to postpone my project for personal reasons. No fault of theirs. They were very gracious and I look forward to working with R&R in the future. read more

We just recently completed a large project with the team at r&r led by Ron. We are beyond satisfied and happy with our experience. From day one, the communication was quick, clear, and professional. Everything was delivered as promised. While the initial bid was more than others, you really get what you pay for, and it was worth it in every way. The on-site team showed up everyday, at the same time- which is huge in the service industry. We will continue to work with r&r for any future landscape needs. Thanks team! read more

I highly recommend R&R. I reached out to them for a full backyard renovation. They were incredibly professional every step of the way. They knew the answer to each question, very responsive, detailed and organized. read more

We are so happy with the quality project had done by R&R. Ron & Tamir really respected our wants and were patient as we took our time finalizing our plan. They offered great suggestions and ultimately it all resulted in a beautiful yard! We had our entire backyard re-done. They took out cement and leveled our slanted yard. Installed irrigation and lighting. Built a beautiful retaining wall. Installed turf and pavers for the patio area. The entire team did such an amazing job! Very profressional. The crew did thorough job cleaning up after their work every day. Communication was great. We highly recommend this team! read more

We had a great experience working with R&R backyard remodeling. We had a project that need to get done quickly when selling a property. This project was a bit complicated and Tamir and his team helped find good solutions that looked great and were cost effective. R&R built a very nice fence and reworked an old brick path to meet a property line and added nice plants, irrigation and bark to make the space look amazing! Thank you Team R&R. read more

We hired R&R for a backyard job that involves installing paver, sod, irrigation system, later also added electrical system. It was very pleasant working with Ron and the crew from R&R. I would recommend any friend to choose R&R for couple reasons: Pricing is very reasonable: we had quoted 4-5 contractor for the job and R&R was not the cheapest but demonstrated the highest professionalism. And after the job is finished, i would say they are the best value you get for the price! Ron is a very good PM. Communicate with him is easy and straightforward. He is knowledgeable about the technical detail and can layout the pros and cons clearly for us to make an educated decision but won't strong sell you for either option. More importantly, he will go above and beyond to help optimize the work for us. For example, we saw that there are some sod left after the job and didn't want to waste it so we ask him to help lay it on another small area. We didn't know the work involve and thought it would be a simple job. Ron told us that it takes time and labor to prep the dirt and ground but still go ahead and did it anyway without extra charge. He always have customer in mind and would go the extra mile if necessary. The crew is also very professional. They always come early around 8 or before and work sometimes until 7pm. but they are also very considerate and always ask if it's okay to work later because some neighbor might prefer quiet evenings. They are meticulous at doing their work and lay the paver to make sure they are aligned. We are really happy with the backyard transformation and I would recommend all my friend to work with Ron and R&R. read more

Ron and his team did an excellent job for our full backyard remodeling. During the project planning, Ron helped me with some budget saving and went over every single detail of the cost. He came onsite a few times every day and treated every detail with care during the 5.5 week of the project. The project I had is a big one, including fully removal and rebuilding of old deck (a lot of backyard company doesn't do deck), paver and retaining wall, adding light and dripping system. All of the job was accomplished in high quality, and when I proposed something new, they tried their best to make the change accordingly to my need. The team is professional, exactly knowing what they were doing, and more important, they definitely care about the quality and about want I asked. It is a busy season for backyard jobs, and a few of the other companies I quoted just disappeared after onsite visit, they don't care I guess. I am very happy that I chose Ron and his team. read more

Just completed a complete re-landscape of my front and back yards. After getting 6 quotes, I awarded the contract to R & R Backyard Remodeling. Once the project started they were here every day and finished the complete project in less than two weeks. Tamir and Ron were great. They communicated well and checked for any concerns I might have had. They worked with me and were onsite everyday to ensure everything was going according to plan. As the project proceeded, as in any project, there were some minor issues which came up. Both Tamir and Ron would give me options and we would discuss options and allowed me to make the final decision. Having spent the last 7 years completely remodeling the house, R & R were the best contractors I have worked with. By the end of the project, I felt as though I had some new friends. read more

We consulted with Tamir about our backyard renovation project and is super satisfied with his service.

Working with Tamir from R&R Backyard Remodeling was an absolutely good choice. Tamir is a highly professional project manager.

Additionally, he is very prompt in responding to our emails and phone calls. I really appreciate all his effort! read more

I used R&R Backyard Remodeling for a big front and back yard renovation this year, and quite simply they far exceeded my expectations! More importantly, in a market that is unfortunately littered with unscrupulous actors and incompetence, Ron and his team showed the highest level of INTEGRITY, HONESTY, PROFESSIONALISM, and EXPERTISE throughout the entire experience. From the design phase that blew us away, to his team of laborers who started up at 8:00 am and then worked 12 hours a day in the hot CA sun, to the constant follow up on product deliveries, we were in sync and in the loop at all times. Of course as I'm sure most complex construction projects go some issues came up during install, and Ron rolled with the punches and came up with solutions that kept the project on time and on budget. I literally could not recommend Ron and his team more, and I would give ten stars out of five if I could! Thank you!!! read more

Ron and team did an amazing job of transforming a design and vision into reality. They were on time and delivered everything as promised.

I was very fortunate to find R&R to remodel my backyard. Initially, I was a bit concerned with the size of the project, and not having a clear idea of what we wanted. I spoke to several people prior to finding R&R. However, once I met Ron and began telling him what we were considering, within a particular budget, I could immediately sense that Ron had a good idea of what he would do, this was very comforting, as he started making suggestions, it was quickly apparent that Ron has extensive experience, is extremely knowledgeable, detailed oriented and simply the best person I personally have ever worked with on any project. Ron and the team are fantastic. I would consider R&R for all backyard remodeling projects, they're simply the best! read more

I reached out to R&R regarding my complete back yard renovation project. Ronelle answered my call and was very kind when scheduling our appointment. I met Ron and Tamir and shared my thoughts and desires with them- they were able to come up with a plan that provided everything I ever wanted in my back yard in a way so much better than what my wife and I had in mind. Besides their outstanding creativity, they were very thorough when they explained the entire process to me. 4 weeks later we started the remodel. The crew was very punctual with their arrival every morning and they worked diligently to get the work done as quickly as they could while providing incredible professionalism and quality. I super happy about my choice to work with R&R and I won't hesitate to hire them for any other project I need down the road. read more

Thanks to R&R Backyard Remodeling, I live in my own resort. Seriously. I know it may sound like I'm exaggerating, but the backyard which Ron at R&R built for me is better than any 5-star resort I have vacationed at. The design is unique, modern, sleek and if given the choice to be anywhere else, I choose my new backyard every time. Aside from being beautiful and relaxing, the new backyard brings my family together. It has become a place of conversation. The kids aren't glued to Fortnite upstairs anymore, but instead sit in the new pergola by the fire pit and talk. When my family got to Hawaii this summer for vacation, I heard the kids grumbling a little bit that they would have rather stayed at our home. The only bad thing about it is that whenever anyone visits our house for the first time and sees the new backyard, they fall in love and never want to leave. Ron was easy to work with, and they translated my incoherent rambling about what I would like to see in my new backyard into a work of art. *Once we have the professional photos that Ron's photographer took, we will update the review with it* thank you Ron & the whole team at R&R. read more

We had the best experience with R&R Backyard Remodeling. My husband and I have been involved with several construction projects before and always hate the contractors by the time the project is done. But r&r was different right from the start all the way to the end of the project. They were professional, excellent communicators and never pressured us to "upgrade" anything we didn't want too. I think that was the best part, that Ron really helped us tailor our needs and was always honest with his opinion. Along with Ron, all his guys were also fantastic and very timely and efficient with their work. The project started and ended on time and exactly on budget! Ron is an excellent designer and he was the only one who (out several contractors we interviewed) truly listened and got our vision. There was sales pitch, just delivering exactly what the customer wants! High Recommend them and we are planning on using them again for our front yard! You won't go wrong with r&r backyard remodeling! Thank you! read more

R&R re-did our backyard patio. Relatively small job at 200 sq ft. They estimated 2 wks. It took 2 wks. Work started promptly after contract signed. Workers were excellent...craftsmen rather than laborers...and R&R supervisors were frequently on sight. Workmanship was superb. Patio with pavers had started buckling. Base dug up, raised and refurbished. Leaky watering system was repaired. New paving tiles with sealed grouting was installed. Neighbor saw the work and will copy it with them. Very highly recommended. Zero complaints, which is unusual. After job cleanup left all in excellent appearance. read more

We chose Ron and his team at R&R Backyard Remodeling to renovate our neglected backyard space into something completely amazing as well as give our front yard and driveway some curb appeal. Ron and his team were able to take our ideas for what we wanted out of our backyard space and turn them into a reality. They accounted for the concerns we had about drainage issues with our driveway and all the little details for how we would be using the backyard space while working with our budget. His team was very professional arriving on the time they specified everyday and at the end of the day they made sure that their things were put away. Ron also showed up everyday to review what was done the day before and to answer any questions we had and was able to accommodate slight changes to our original ideas as they came up. They showed that they cared about their work and it definitely showed in the final result. We could not thank Ron and his team more and now we have a space that we can use and enjoy. read more

Ron and his crew did a great job on my extended driveway and new fence with a gate. They matched the existing fence perfectly! The driveway looks great too! The price was fair and they finished up the job without any delays. They cleaned up after themselves, which is nice. They took care into doing a good job. I highly recommend them for any backyard project, even a small one like mine. Overall, the whole experience was very pleasant. R&R Backyard Remodeling have very good business standards, which is so important. So refreshing to see a business that operates with complete honesty as well do a outstanding job! I'm a very happy customer! read more
