Castaneda Grading & Excavating

Humberto is a very creative problem solver! Personable and definitely interested in customer satisfaction, so spends time understanding the full scope of the problem. The problem was the subterranean north wall of the sanctuary of First Presbyterian Church in Vallejo that was far from being waterproof, especially with the rains last winter. Castaneda dug out the soil next to the wall, pressure washed it and applied two coats of DryLok and then a layer of Henryâ s waterproofing. Then Humberto installed a French drain and then a big pipe to route the water off of five downspouts. To get the correct drainage slope, more excavating needed to be done than anticipated. Removed five landscaped trees and lots of concrete that was in the way of the drains which were to be routed under city sidewalks.

Humberto and his crews always showed up early and ready to work. Wonderful to work with. He is an honest person who is passionate about his job and wanted to make sure we are happy. Highly recommended. Really hard to find someone like him these days. Definitely will refer more people to him.

Did a great job!

Humberto, the owner of the company called back right away. I had an odd job that needed a lot of brainstorming, and he came out to the property and spent 2hours brainstorming with me. I knew he would be dedicated to the job, and I was right. He and Gabriel worked together in cold 40 degree weather to finish the job on time. I would definitely hire him again and would recommend to anyone!

Humberto was easy to work with and showed up on time. They created a large swale to prevent rain water/ mud from flowing into our pool. Work was completed in two days in over 100 degree heat!

Very good contractor. Showed up on time very perfection all highly recommend him

Humberto is a good guy to work with, would DEFINITELY call him again to do lLandscape work.

Very quick response, we needed the work done quickly and they made time to make the job happen. I had a cheaper quote but happy that they were available on the time frame needed. REALLY easy to do business with.

Humberto was very responsive, scheduling the work around our schedule and between his other jobs. He did the work himself. I could not recommend more highly.

Humberto is a great partner in working on a project. He is responsive, ensures common understanding of the work to be done, and communicates throughout the job to discuss tweaks due to findings the enviably happen.
