They installed beautiful artificial grass, a decomposed granite (DG) pathway, a full drip irrigation system, turf and recommended and installed a great selection of plants that really elevated the overall design. Michael also contributed some fantastic creative ideas that helped bring the whole vision together. Throughout the process, Michael was extremely responsive and attentive to our needs, especially given the tight deadline. Not only did they meet it--they finished with time to spare. His crew was a pleasure to work with: friendly, respectful, and always professional. We couldn't be happier with the final results. Dreamwork delivered above and beyond, and we highly recommend them for any landscaping project!

With a lot of contractors, there would be a light of hands on management in the day to day but with MG Contruction, they ran the whole operations seaminglessly while keeping me up to date on the progress. Having been busy at work, they save me a lot of my time and hassle from having to spend too much time reviewing this project. They are well organized and Michael definitely has been doing this for a long time. The pricing for his company is more than fair for the high quality of work. Both James and Max were great when I reached out with questions, they were very responsive. A big thank you to his awesome team who helped build the deck and showed up everyday with a smile. One of the reason why I went with MG Construction was because Michael's eagle eye was able to notice certain detail of the job that that the other contractors who provided bids overlooked. I rarely provide reviews for company but MG Construction certainly deserves this one. I will definitely use this company for my future landscape projects.

They transformed the entire space with a beautiful large deck, modern patio cover, outdoor kitchen, and pool remodel. The crew showed up consistently, worked fast, and kept the project moving smoothly from start to finish. Communication was great, the craftsmanship was top quality, and the attention to detail really showed in the final result. If you're looking for a contractor for a backyard remodel with high-end design and quality work, I highly recommend Michael and his team.

My 92 year old mom was out of town and we had been wanting to replace her walkway that had been there since the house was built in the 40's. I spoke to Amado about replacing her walkway and could it be done in 2 days so it would be a surprise for when she got back. Amado assured me he could start on it that day and it would be completed before she arrived home. True to his word the work was completed when she got home. Her comment upon arriving home, "it looks beautiful!!" Thanks Amado for helping us keep our mom safe by fixing her walkway!

We had a sprinkler bust next to our house and we called around to a few businesses and Jonakee was…read moreone of the only responsive ones and quick to come out. They quoted us $450 for the repair, which entailed cutting off our sprinkler where it was rusted galvanized steel and replacing it with PVC pipe. This in turn ended up re routing our system, rending a large chunk of our sprinkler system useless, due to the steel not being able to be connected to the original system unless we wanted to pay for more repairs. We were quoted around the same (around $500) to connect our sprinkler system again so it would work, on top of the original repair, in which we did not move forward. At first, I was fine with a quote of $450 assuming it was going to be a complicated repair with fancy parts but when I saw the work that was done, it changed my mind. Total labor time was maybe 30 minutes and it was simply digging up where the sprinkler was broken and rerouting the pipe with about $15 worth of PVC and that was it. The gentlemen who came out were kind and helpful so I don't like to leave bad reviews however I feel like we were totally ripped off and charged way more than appropriate to the point where I feel extremely silly I didn't call around to other places and feel like we got played. And now we have a system that does not work. I would highly suggest you call around before going with these guys.

The project started with a blank slate on a fixer property, and I worked with Gary and Kayla on 3 design concept rounds. They were very accommodating to my schedule during site visits and came prepared. Once scope was locked, I worked with Zach and the amazing crew during the build phase that took about a month. The crew worked extremely hard and quickly, and always cleaned up after each day. Zach came on site frequently to supervise the progress. Things that stood out was that I felt like a part of their family. When a pergola got delivered and I needed help unloading, Zach had the crew over to help. When I needed help picking the right pergola dimensions, Zach came over to help provide guidance. Our yard is a moderate size, but every inch is now maximized and easy to maintain now. We sat outside for the first time, and just again impressed with the quality of work and how much this improves the usage and flow of our house. Thank you Living Green Design team!

Steve (South Bay Lights) was the only one who responded that was able to help me. He helped us choose a design for our project and worked with the concrete contractor to get conduit installed prior to the concrete pour. By informing my wife and I about product choices we didn't know existed, we were able to make our vision a reality. With prompt and reliable communication from Steve, we were able to get an estimate and start the lighting after the concrete workers had already started. Steve exceeded my expectations by being flexible with the schedule of the other trades working the project and making time for our job on very short notice. The products installed look and work great. The installation work is impeccable and the support and follow up after the work was completed has been tremendous. Our project was small, but I can tell that a larger job would be no problem. I would use South Bay Lights again and would recommend without hesitation.
