"I contacted M&J Prime Builders on a Sunday morning via an urgent request on Angi (Angie's List) to repair a leak in our backyard irrigation system. Javier contacted us immediately and arrived at our home in Concord with his business partner, Marcos, within 90 minutes. They were very attentive, professional, and accommodating, especially for our unexpected Sunday morning emergency. They not only repaired the leak but also addressed another issue that had arisen with our shutoff valve. Their estimate was very reasonable and accurate, and their work is top-notch. Javier is both a licensed contractor and a civil engineer. As a result, they offer a wide range of home improvement projects.

"I had Majid replace my fence and build a pergola last year. Since then, some of the pressure treated wood 4x4s have begun to split and the concrete that was used to support the 4x4s was starting to crumble. He also had the fence built and attached to the building which is not supposed to happen! When I had the siding replaced and painted, we had to REBUILD the fence portions that were ATTACHED to the house/garage, which was a huge pain. Both of these issues indicated that the products he used and the techniques he used are not great quality. The contractor I hired to do the siding/painting expressed concern regarding the structural integrity of the pergola - NO bracing brackets had been installed, and at least one of the 8x8 redwood posts was installed already warped. When I reached out to Majid regarding my concerns, he agreed to come out and look. When he came, he started giving excuses as to why all these things were happening. Such as, I didn't give a design with the pergola so ho"

NatureWorks is a full-service landscape company with more than 30 years of experience.Our minimum job is $5,000.00 Types of work Paving all types, retaining walls, all types Outdoor living spaces including solid roof pavilions with BBQ islands, custom or pre-fab fireplaces, heaters, ceiling fans, big screen TV's,, Koi ponds. sod sprinklers and planting. We also offer full service designs with structural design in house.We work on projects of almost every size, type and budget, with a focus on residential work and customer service. We Have workers comp and Liability Insurance coverage

"I was overcharged ? the price was changed after the project was completed, and I received no help with designing the space. This was not made clear to me during the initial phases of the project. Other contractors typically include design guidance, but I was left to figure out plant selections and their placement myself, which was time-consuming and frustrating, especially as I?m not an expert in landscaping. Roy overpromised and underdelivered. The team that came to do the physical work, led by Hugo, was fine, but I expected a professional service that included both design and supervision ? not something I had to manage myself. I was also charged $185 for a tree rose without being told its price in advance, adding to my dissatisfaction. Overall, I had a very bad experience with Roy and Nick. They are dishonest, and you may end up with a much higher bill than initially quoted. I wish I had researched their reviews more carefully before hiring them, and I would not recommend them."

FAQs for landscape yard or garden installation projects in Castro Valley, CA

Well-maintained trees can add significant value to your property. Mature trees enhance curb appeal, provide shade, improve energy efficiency, and can increase property values by up to 10%. They also offer privacy, reduce noise pollution, and create a more inviting outdoor space, making your home more attractive to potential buyers.

The fastest-growing tree species include alder, rowan, silver birch, willow, cypress, and poplar. However, it’s best to consult with an arborist to choose trees that will thrive in your area, as they’re affected by climate. Otherwise, their growth may be stunted, and the trees may die. To reach their growth potential, trees need high-quality, nutrient-rich soil, ample space, and the right amount of water.

You should plant trees in the spring for the best chance at root development and recovery. Spring provides ample moisture and moderate temperatures, reducing the risk of transplant shock. While fall planting is possible, spring conditions are more likely to produce healthier trees, leading to thriving growth and a stronger root system.

Tree maturity significantly affects planting outcomes. Young trees take longer to mature but recover from transplanting with minimal root damage. Mature trees provide immediate benefits like shade, fruit, and improved curb appeal but may be more challenging to transplant. Consult a professional arborist to choose the right tree for your landscape goals.

A five-gallon tree is one grown in a five-gallon container, indicating a compact root ball and smaller size. These trees typically grow two to six feet tall, making them a manageable, cost-effective option. They also transplant easily and establish quickly with proper care, making them ideal for homeowners seeking immediate landscape improvement.

Tree costs vary significantly by species and size. Smaller, common species like a Colorado spruce may cost as little as $30, while ornamental and shade trees are often more expensive due to their size and planting complexity. The larger the tree, the higher your labor and transport fees will be, raising overall costs.
