    I cannot say how much we love our re landscaped backyard done by Vince's! The workmen do an amazing job! Steve knows which plants to order to make things look good! They made sure the sprinklers covered everything! They are a busy company so you may have to wait but it will be worth it!

    I can't even begin to tell you how much of a pleasure it was working with Vince's Landscaping. I first had the privilege of speaking with Steve's wife (it was a short call and I wish I remembered her name). She was so sweet and listened to all of my concerns about our backyard and irrigation system. After speaking with her, she sent Steve out a few days later to evaluate our space. Our backyard needed leveling, brick, tree, root, and rock removal. We were also looking to install grass. Steve is a no BS kind of guy. He will be upfront with you and tell you what will work in your space and what will not. He's very thorough and wants you to have a functional and manageable yard. He will not waste your time. I appreciate how upfront he is. Then his team came out and did an incredible job. Our yard is absolutely beautiful. I feel like someone placed our house on a golf course. It was exactly what we needed and wanted for our family. Honestly, I can't even say enough about the guys doing all that hard labor. They were so considerate and nice. They always made sure to say hello every morning, they arrived at the house early and ready to slay the day (even in 100 degree weather). They were always smiling and genuinely seemed to enjoy what they were creating. They needed to use our crawl space and made sure to remove their shoes before coming inside the house (which I always appreciate). They even took in our trash bins which was a really sweet gesture. They want to take care of your home like it's their home. Also they have a lot of fun together and I love that. Anyway, our yard is spectacular and when we are ready to make over our front yard they will be the people we will call! I highly recommend this company. Thank you, thank you!

    Although there was some wait time to get our project started because of how busy this company is, it was well worth the wait! Once they started the demolition of our old retaining wall/porch/stairway, the rest of the project moved along faster than I expected. We are so happy with the final design and quality of the work! These guys know what they're doing!

    We hired Vince's Landscape to do our front yard in 2022. We were so impressed with Steven Martino and his crew that we hired them again to do the backyard last summer. Steven is a great communicator, knows his plants, has great ideas and his crew is very professional. Thank you Steven and team!

    Vince's Landscaping is the best! We initially used Yardzen to come up with the landscaping designs and then hired Steve to implement the plans. Throughout the whole process, Steve was engaged, knowledgeable, and responsive. He showed us some of the flaws of the preliminary designs and gave us better ideas for what was realistic to implement considering our budget, terrain, and timeframe. Steve and his crew were amazing to work with - they showed up early, were detail-oriented, worked tirelessly in the hot sun, and were respectful and communicative every step of the way. Our backyard was transformed from an eyesore to an oasis that our whole family loves! Steve was so wonderful that we used his services again for our front yard renovation and it came out beautifully. I highly recommend Vince's for all your landscaping projects!

    I am very happy. Quality work. Quality workers. Quality management. Great communication. After several other companies failed to follow through after a visit to my home to view my project... Vince and his team were on top of it and presented ideas and a quote within one week. They understood my vision. They offered me options that fit my budget. They met challenges head on... with good communication and good options. I'm thrilled with my backyard and with Vince's Landscaping.

    It has been 2.5 years since the work was completed and the pavers installed continue to sink and move. Not enough compaction of the soil was done prior to laying the bricks. Also, the pavers as a whole have never been flat. I did not notice this until I saw another house with the same pavers. Mine look sloppy, uneven and rough with little dips in the corners or edges or the whole paver, all over the place. The pavers sank some over the French drain in some areas too. I wish had hired a paver specialist for my pavers, given that there were over 2,200 sf of pavers installed (about half the job was for the pavers). I think Vince's would have done better with a smaller amount of pavers. Vince's Landscaping did well on everything except the pavers. I like their watering controller too, which they installed. I attached a few photos as examples. There are hundreds of these throughout the layout.

    Steve and Vince's Landscaping gave us our dream backyard! I couldn't be more impressed by how reliable, conscientious and timely Steve and his crew were. We took out an old wood deck and did grading in order to make the backyard all one level; a combination of pavers and grass with a gorgeous wood pergola with a sun shade and patio lights. He also planted citrus trees and various other plants that make the backyard pop! In a time when contractors are anything but reliable and who promise the world but then don't deliver it was so very refreshing to work with Steve at Vince's because I always knew I could get in touch with him about the project and I trusted that if something was going to cost more than what we agreed on there would be a discussion first. It was so easy working with Steve on the and I could not be happier with the results. We are so excited to have friends over to enjoy the gorgeous much more usable space! I only wish they did kitchens! :)

    Vince's landscaping made our daunting project a breeze and we are absolutely thrilled with the results! They graded nearly a half acre, put in 2 retaining walls, irrigation, electrical, an entire deck, lawn, pavers, and a pergola in less than 4 months. Steve and his crew listened to what we wanted, made adjustments when I changed my mind, and communicated well and efficiently. They made some great suggestions too for making the yard useful and aesthetically pleasing. Their experience took the stress out of the equation and really made our yard transformation a fun and exciting experience. Best of all, they stuck to the budget. We paid not a cent over their quoted price. We've already recommended Vince's to others that have happily hired them too.

    We had a great experience NAB Construction! Our pickleball court had broken concrete on one end,…read moreand was too short on the other. NAB removed all the bad concrete and replaced it with pavers, and on the other side of the court, they added 5 feet of concrete where we had lawn, as well as adding to our existing retaining wall. After the pavers were installed, I noticed something not to my preference with the paver layout. I contacted Nick, our site manager from NAB, and he was very responsive, and arranged for Nate (the company president) to come out right away and discuss the matter, which was resolved that same day to my complete satisfaction. Nick also was happy to arrange for a few other small tasks related to bricks and concrete on our property to be taken care of, and they were - at no added cost. NAB construction was not the lowest bid we got for this work, but I have learned the hard way that going with the lowest price is not always a great idea, and I am glad I went with NAB for this project. I'm very satisfied with the results of this project, and would not hesitate to recommend NAB construction to others.

We wanted a walkway installed so we went back but this time we dealt with someone by the name of Nick Vard. He was very unprofessional and used the terms "outside the scope of work" and asked us to make a "commitment" several times. I went to Brickyard on a Saturday at 8AM per the direction of Nick but when I called him about our selection he never called me back. He blamed us and said they lost money on the job because it took longer than expected. He tried to convince me to use a brick I did not like. And the biggest disappointment was the drainage that they left unfinished. We spent almost $10k but we feel like the job is incomplete. Wish we could recommend them but if they continue working with Nick Vard you should stay away.

From the moment I reached out to Pat, we connected right away. He is incredibly knowledgeable about landscape design, layout, and all things plants. He really helped us see what was possible. Pat then introduced us to Ricardo, who is the expert in hardscape, mechanical work, and overall execution. Ricardo and his team worked tirelessly to demo our backyard. Once it was cleared, we finally saw how much usable space we truly had -- and we even uncovered a view! We were so pleased with the entire process -- from design to execution -- and absolutely love the end result. Working with Pat and Ricardo was seamless, professional, and collaborative. We're already looking forward to having them transform our front yard next. We highly recommend Universal Pavers for anyone looking to reimagine their outdoor space!

Pat came over and reviewed our design plans, listened…read moreto our concerns, shared many great suggestions, and then gave us a reasonable quote for our backyard project. His knowledge of plants is extensive, and he also helped us with many practical design elements. Ricardo and his crew worked very hard in transforming our yard. They put in a drainage and irrigation system, a PVC deck with lighting, paver patios, artificial grass, and a variety of plants. His attention to detail and getting things right even when it added to his labor and material costs was appreciated. The quote was more reasonable than 2 other quotes and there were no "surprise and add-on costs." We are very happy with the high quality of the work, the affordable cost, and the beautiful result of the project and highly recommend Pat & Ricardo with Universal.

    We had a great experience with Linda, owner at Sunrise Garden Design. She patiently listened to our…read moredreams and desires, and helped us land on a backyard design that was practical and beautiful. She clearly communicated her expertise and when our questions drifted to the actual execution of the work, she would always say "that is for the contractor to decide". While some may think this response abrupt or uncaring, Linda is clear in what she does (design) and does not do (installation). We did end up tweaking some design elements to lower installation cost but overall followed her plan. Even when we asked for different plants after her main design was completed, she helped us out at no additional cost. It was a good learning experience for us and we are happy with the final result.

Linda's design process from beginning to end is extremely effective! It involved friendly communication and relationship-building to ensure we provided her with our plant interests and overall desired garden outcome that helped her with designing our front yard. Linda's expertise in plant knowledge and garden design resulted in a drafted plan that was very detailed and informative. In addition, Linda's contractor referrals helped to seamlessly complete the project process. About six years ago, we had our front yard transitioned from lawn to drought-tolerant plants, but it hadn't been thriving. With Linda's help, we were able to keep the healthier plants and incorporate their place in the yard into Linda's plan. We appreciated that as well as her suggestion to transplant many of the existing plants that didn't really fit the front yard's plan to the backyard area where they can still be enjoyed. Linda's gardening love and enthusiasm is infectious! With our newly completed front yard and improved backyard, I'm looking forward to increasing my own gardening skills and enjoying the therapeutic benefits it can provide.

    We had QGL re-do our front yard. Everything was updated: old concrete driveway and abrasive patio…read morepavers were torn out and replace with new pavers (driveway and patio). The lawn, decorative plants, sprinklers, and drainage were all replaced. We are extremely happy with the outcome. The staff QGL sent was professional and communicative. Chris was our project manager and on site we mostly worked with Paco and a small crew of 2-3 people depending on the day. The project took about 7 weeks. We got 5 bids and Chris' team came in mid-range. At the time of collecting bids, it seemed a fair price for the work. Now that the project is done I'd say it was an excellent value and the best price for the quality of work we got. We especially appreciated Chris' input on the design and plant selection. We had a design from a landscaper, but made a few changes to the shape of the driveway, a small rock wall, and adding a tree. All of Chris' suggestions were fantastic- expanding the driveway line, using Napa basalt, and adding a Crepe Myrtle. Like any project there were a few hiccups,(change to paver pattern near edge, electrical line accidentally cut when tearing up old driveway) but everything was fixed quickly and professionally. The team also phased how the pavers were laid so that we always had a clear and paved walkway to either our door or garage. Tools were put away at the end of the workday and areas swept- this was especially helpful given that we have two young children. We've had at least 5 sets of neighbors tell us how great the front yard looks now. We've done a lot of major upgrades to our house in the 6 years we've lived here (new roof, exterior paint, pool resurfacing, solar install, interior flooring & paint), but this has definitely been the best overall experience and outcome. When we update our backyard, we will definitely call QGL!
