RECOMMENDATIONS: 1) Landscaping sketches should accurately reflect the size of the plants/trees…read morethat will be planted, 2) If there are issues with the work after completion and the payment has already been made, Mr. Daniele should address the issues in a timely fashion, not three seasons later, 3) Making the customer happy should always be a priority. I did my research on about three to four different landscape designers and while Mr. Daniele was one of the more expensive ones, I decided to go with him because his reviews were good and he provided a sketch of the end product and we were very pleased with the plan. The beginning of the process was smooth. Mr. Daniele was responsive and seemed knowledgeable and experienced with landscaping. The concerns started to come about the day he arrived with the plants. Some of the plants were not in the best condition, but he assured us they would bloom again before the end of the season, in which they did. But, also it was evident he was attempting to make the most profit by purchasing smaller plants (or much younger) than what was shown in the sketch. After completing his work, I noticed one of the trees was not planted straight, another tree planted is not the one that was listed in the contract, and 10 of the plants are either dying or dead. The job cost $3,400 so I expected to be completely satisfied. I reached out to Mr. Daniel and he mentioned the plants were dying due to lack of water. This is false as one of the dying plants is a few inches away from a sprinkler and all sprinkler heads were adjusted to provide adequate water for the plants. He then said he would replace the plants, but I would have to wait until spring of 2020 (as per a policy that was not noted in the contract). I do not believe it is fair to pay a few thousands of dollars for a landscaping project and have to wait almost a year for it to be properly completed. Also, Mr. Daniele would not mention anything about the slanted tree or the tree that was quoted in the contract but not delivered. I am guessing we would have to wait until the spring for those as well. Overall, I am dissatisfied with the outcome of the project and regret not going with another company.

Very positive experience with Gold Coast Pavers and Chris Stasi…read more We worked with Gold Coast Pavers, owned by Chris Stasi, on a project that included replacing our front porch, steps, landing, side steps, and two driveways. Overall, the experience was very positive and the finished work met our expectations. Chris was easy to work with and consistently receptive to our input. We had a number of specific requests, and he was willing to accommodate them, even when changes were requested after work had already been completed. As an example, after seeing the new steps, we decided we preferred a different configuration and asked to replace five steps with four taller steps. Chris agreed to redo the work so that the result matched what we wanted. Pricing was fair and clearly explained. Each part of the project was priced separately, which made the process transparent and straightforward. We always understood what was included and how costs were structured. The quality of the workmanship, Chris's flexibility, and the clear pricing made this a smooth project overall. We would recommend Gold Coast Pavers to anyone looking for a reliable and professional paver contractor.

Absolutely Exceptional - A Dream Backyard Come True…read more We worked with Adam, the owner of Topaz Design, to completely transform our backyard -- what started as plain grass and bushes is now a stunning hardscape and in-ground pool that genuinely feels like our own private oasis. The difference is unbelievable. From the initial imaging and design concepts to the very last finishing touches, the work was nothing short of spectacular. We had some design challenges due to water-level constraints in Long Beach, and Adam handled everything with total professionalism. He came up with a revised plan that not only solved the issue but actually made the design even better than our original vision. His eye for design is incredible. The crews were meticulous, talented, and consistent. They showed up every day, worked cleanly, and took pride in every detail. They consistently checked in with us about placements, cuts, and finishes to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. The craftsmanship is flawless -- our stone wall, hardscape lines, and pool area are perfect. Topaz coordinated beautifully with the pool company as well; the entire process felt seamless and thoughtfully managed. The end result is breathtaking. We still walk outside and can't believe this is our yard. Thank you, Adam, and thank you, Topaz Design. Our home is more beautiful because of your work. I would recommend Topaz without hesitation to anyone looking for high-quality design and build work, and we'll absolutely be using them again for future projects.
