Third Heaven Review…read more This review is long overdue - Third Heaven began two of our projects during COVID-19. Both our projects were completed by July 2023. In March of 2022, our first project with Third Heaven was to lay a concrete pad for an Endless Pool, install the stone skirting and pavers around the pool, along with other details. It was a huge job in which Juan Carlos Marquez and his team had to work with the pool installer/contractor (separate from Third Heaven) who was NOT as dependable and easy to work with as Third Heaven and Juan Carlos. Nevertheless, Juan Carlos was patient and diplomatic as well as efficient and flexible as he met every challenge the job presented. The results were fantastic! In February of 2023, our second project was the landscaping of the rest of our yard. I had a design in mind to which Juan Carlos was very attentive and kindly made suggestions that helped significantly. He was very forthcoming with prices and affordability as well as keeping us informed of material delays. He was also very patient with me as I asked questions and presented ideas about details I hadn't thought about during the planning process. Here are the highlights that would be very important to me if I needed to find a landscaper (which I don't - I'm hooked on Third Heaven Landscaping :)) Dependable and Honest - Juan Carlos, Third Heaven's owner is true to his word. To me this is invaluable when dealing with any professional. I knew what to expect and when to expect it. He is friendly, amicable, diplomatic, considerate, and very dependable. When there were delays, he let me know as soon as he knew. We never heard excuses or felt deceived. The team he had working on our property was also very dependable and professional. Listens - Juan Carlos listened to my plan and offered helpful suggestions. I was never put off if I wanted to do things my way, nor did I feel he resented me "sticking to my guns". He enabled me to appreciate him making points if he thought one of my ideas might not work. However, he was interested in making sure I was happy with the outcome; of which I undeniably delighted!! Good Ideas - Juan Carlos made suggestions that were helpful. For example, I went with a composite bark for ground cover after he brought me some bark samples. The composite really DID look natural and was considerably less expensive. Also, I had some stepping- stones from my yard that I wanted to use in my rose garden - but couldn't figure out the layout. One of the Third Heaven team members laid them out perfectly. Putting lights in our patio and pool steps was also a brilliant suggestion. I am especially grateful when I have to go out and check on things after dark - much safer than a flashlight and so much prettier! There were a lot of little details which the Third Heaven team and Juan Carlos enhanced the aesthetics of my garden. Accommodates Schedules - Juan Carlos worked with and around COVID-19 and contractor issues, our work schedules, personal events, and travel schedules. He did all that he could to make sure that we were comfortable with what was on the schedule. Follows Up - In all things, Juan Carlos followed up on all arrangements and contract obligations. We appreciate that he did many check-ins to make sure we were happy with the finished project. In closing, we HIGHLY recommend Third Heaven Landscaping and are very happy with their expertise, dependability and being as kind and accommodating to us during our landscaping projects. We truly feel that Juan Carlos Marquez and Third Heaven Landscaping went above and beyond our expectations.

Frances and her crew were always punctual, responsible, skillful, considerate and professional. They were able to accomplish all we asked for. Black Diamond, with Frances as the designer and project manager, was definitely the right choice.

I came across this company through yelp. I live in hollister and was is desperate need of turf installation since we'd gone an entire year with dirt after my dogs killed the sod we had installed in 2018. We were very skeptical with Artificial turf installation because of the dog urine scent that is noticeable in the summer days. We are have 2 dogs that usually hang in the backyard. I spoke to Eric and he was wonderful in explaining the turf installation process and basically said that as long as we clean the turf routinely the smell should subside. We've had the turf for almost a year and i've cleaned the turf twice. I use white vinegar and water And within a few minutes the smell goes away. Installation process was amazing. Hands down the fastest crew i've seen work. They arrived at roughly 9am and were done by 1pm. My husband also requested a channel drain to help drain excess water in the winter months and for anytime we clean the concrete. The crew wasn't familiar with the channel installation but did their best. We ended up with the deep olive turf and longer grass for easy dog poop mess pick ups. Thank you for giving my backyard some life.
