Brandon is a great person to work with. He is very honest He is always available. He always answered my calls. He guaranteed his work. He did everything we asked of him. It was such a pleasure to work with a person of integrity! He did the work on the timetable he set at the outset. I cannot say enough good things about him and his crew! I will hire him again if I have the type of work he does. He prepared and planted sod in my backyard My backyard is now beautiful! Thank you Brandon and Encore Builders for a job well done!

I had just finished working with three different contractors on separate projects inside of our new home and wanted to renovate our backyard before hosting a baby shower at the end of the following month. That concentrated experience with different companies (some of which less ideal than others) left me a bit apprehensive but also helped set a standard when it came to finding the right company to revamp our backyard. Upon first meeting Oz and Brandon at our consultation, they far exceeded my expectations when it came to customer service. Sure, they took measurements of our yard and we discussed the scope of the project. However, they also took time to tell me about themselves and their work, and to get to know me and what my goals were for both the final backyard result and the process getting there. Time, affordability, quality, and professionalism were all important to me and I can honestly say that Encore Builders was able to meet all of my needs without drastically sacrificing one for another. As for their communication skills? Before, during, and after this whole experience: grade A. Before we officially decided to green-light Encore and their services, I was waiting on my other half to return home from working out of state so that he and I could discuss, in person. In the meantime, Brandon regularly followed-up via telephone calls - and never in a badgering or pushy manner. It was the perfect level of professionalism I would expect from a successful business. He genuinely wanted to make sure that we were comfortable with the information they provided and that we had a clear understanding of what our options were. For example, they initially recommended utilizing their designer to generate ideas for our backyard but the vision we had seemed relatively straightforward (I even provided rough measurements for it). We decided to forgo the designer and draw out a plan together because they were determined to help make our yard as close to our vision as possible without breaking the bank. After material costs were confirmed, Oz and Brandon would regularly text me with new ideas (minor, but money-saving tweaks) that would help us stay within budget. As far as when the project started, if Oz had not already physically stopped by to check in, he was calling me at the end of the each day to go over the happenings and discuss what I should expect the following day. He also made purchasing materials from suppliers a breeze by doing all of the legwork and acting as an intermediary for the payment process. Then there was the crew who truly cared about their quality of work. Yes, there were a few errors and minor overlooked details along the way - that is inevitable. But unlike the experience I had with previous contractors, the crew was receptive to my concerns, more than willing to correct the matter, and never once made me feel uncomfortable or bad for pointing it out in the first place. And these guys were really putting in the work. Due to an impending storm, we had (rotating) crew members here 7 days straight while our project was completed in 10 days (the bulk of which consisted of demoing, grading, resloping, and replacing 1400sf half grass/half concrete yard with brick/pavers and artificial turf). Of course, at the end of the day, Encore is running a business and making a living but they are incredibly easy to work with and are altruistic when it comes to giving their clients a beautiful yard. They even sent a team back to seal our pavers for us when we inquired about it (paver sealing is not an inherent service). We are over the moon with our results and despite my other half previously advocating for real grass, our artificial turf is so vibrant and convenient that he is eager to get some in our front yard, as well. To be clear, we absolutely plan on renovating our front yard in the near future and will ONLY be calling Encore. Thank you, you have all been phenomenal.

I hired Encore Builders for a backyard project. They were super responsive and did everything exactly in the time and on budget they provided. Super easy to work with, honest and reliable. I will definitely use them again for future house projects.

Brandon, Oz, Rudy and the whole team that we dealt down to the very last man was kind, professional and very hard working. They came in on time and with zero negative issues. Iâ ve been putting off the work for years and wish Iâ d have contacted them sooner. They were all very knowledgeable and gave great feedback and knew how to take our input and make it work. Canâ t recommend Encore enough - we have more work to do and theyâ ll be who we use when I can get the funds together.

Encore builders did a fantastic job transforming an ugly hillside into a terraced wonderland of gorgeous flowering plants. Brandon was so professional and knowledgeable and continually came by to monitor progress on this large project. He continually conferred with his fabulous crew who worked diligently and meticulously to make this now glorious hillside a master class in expert masonry and engineering. Bravo Encore Builders. A truly Five Star experience.
