Get matched with top in Aurora, OR

"We recently expanded a deck, added a patio cover, and are putting a hot tub underneath this second floor deck. There was a concrete patio below the existing deck and we wanted to match that, w/ reinforcement for a hot tub. We got a couple bids for the job. Danny was the estimator that came out for Forest and he seemed knowledgeable and was punctual and professional. It was not the cheapest bid, but the company is much more well established than a couple others we consulted so I put more trust in their work. Rigo is the guy we needed to work with on scheduling etc. for concrete work. This was a little rocky at first, but that had a lot to do with us needing to postpone the start till our deck was done, but then also work around a vacation we'd be taking, and make sure the concrete had enough time to cure before our hot tub is dropped. Despite a slight language barrier, we worked it out and even managed to get it done ahead of when we originally scheduled it. Punctuality is impressive with these guys. For 3 days they were waiting outside our house to start at 7:30am precisely. They had to remove a portion of fence and work around some foliage for access. They ended up encountering an unexpected drainage tube of some kind while digging and made sure to create an access point for us if it's ever needed in the future. The concrete looks great and matches our old patio so well, it's hard to tell they weren't poured together. Danny and I (and later Rigo) discussed treating the old concrete to help the matching. At the end of the work they did a great job of cleaning up the area and returning everything to normal. Rigo also helped us by showing us how to remove the fence portion for when our hot tub is delivered and left the top cap off because he said we'd really struggle to get it off if they put it back. I'm happy with the work, communication, and cleanup and trust if there are any problems I will be able to get them resolved. If we have further landscape needs in the future I will def be calling Forest for a bid."

"Israel and his team were great to work with and I am really happy with both of the projects they competed for me. They replaced an old, failing retaining wall with a beautiful stone retaining wall with a French drain behind it. I showed Israel pictures of what I wanted it to look like and his team did an amazing job making my vision a reality. They were careful with my existing plants and landscaping and went above and beyond by moving and repotting a shrub that I was unable to move by myself before the work began. They also replaced parts of my backyard that had been removed by neighbors and built a beautiful new fence and gate out of cedar. They did an amazing job matching the style of the existing fence and my yard looks so much better now. I am so happy with everything and I would work with GI Landscaping again anytime!"

"Absolutely wonderful! Jerry and his crew were very professional, prompt, and completed our job quickly with results beyond our expectations. They left our yard clean when done, and were very friendly and accomodating while they worked. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a job that would last and be exactly what we needed. I honestly have never seen a deck built as solidly as this one. Jerry Losli has 21 years experience and it shows! Even the hardware used is absolutely top grade. That and the high quality lumber make this project absolutely beautiful!"

"First let me say I had a great experience with this company 5-6 years ago. They did a lot of work. The craftsmanship was excellent, workers skilled & easy to be around. The person/owner who designed & oversaw the project was Mitica - professional & good to work with. Because of the good experience with Creative D & F, I called to have them remove & replace the fence. Mitica told me his brother Constantin, handled the fence work. We discussed what I wanted & work began w/in a few weeks; this time was a completely difference experience. Not professional or particularly skilled & not easy to be around. A few months after the work was completed I noticed the wood portion of the fence was shoddy & very flimsy. Within 6 months one of the upright boards came loose & was hanging. They used 5/8" upright boards on a 6' fence, which now seems to be a cost cutting measure. Within 6 months one of the boards was hanging. What a huge disappointment. I have hired someone else to repair & stabilize the flimsy fence and build & install the rest of the fence."

"Deck had been installed too closely surrounding the swim spa and so removable side panels were too difficult to remove. Decking was removed and support structure trimmed back slightly, enabling access. Well done job."
