"I generally don't take time to write reviews like this unless I am really impressed with the company and the quality of their work. Premium Drainage and Erosion Solutions definitely impressed me - they are probably the best contractor I have worked with. The owner, Adrian, is extremely professional and goes above and beyond to ensure that his customer is happy with the work. I don't think I have one single complaint with the work they did, which consisted of three projects: 1. Removal of a concrete patio and installation of a large Techo Bloc paver patio 2. A custom built pergola with privacy wall, hand railings, and gate 3. French drain that ran through the back of the yard that was connected to the downspouts from the house which ran under the patio I received a few quotes for this project. The owner, Adrian, impressed me from day one - the quote was competitive, but what really set it apart from the other companies was the level of detail provided for the project. The quote included a detailed explanation of what would be done and with what materials - the other companies provided much more vague descriptions. Adrian took the time to walk through the property to explain the work that would be performed. When I had follow-up questions, he made another in-person visit to walk through things again. Responses to email communications were very prompt. When Adrian is busy onsite or meeting other clients, Marissa consistency monitored emails and made sure Adrian got back to me to address any questions I had. Before the work started, Adrian made another visit to confirm the details of the project before commencing work. Once the work started, the crew was very careful not to damage the lawn with - as much as you could be with all of the work being performed and the heavy equipment required. Jose, the crew chief, and his team were very careful with removal of the concrete patio and did a lot of prep work and going over the ground multiple times with a soil compactor to ensure it was level and firm prior to installation of the pavers. The drains for the downspouts were also run underneath the ground and connected to our french drain (something the company that built our concrete patio did not do). The Techo Bloc pavers are a bit more expensive, but they look amazing and are definitely worth the price. The area we live in is pretty windy, so we needed a pergola that was well anchored. The pergola was custom built 13 x 15 and almost 10 feet tall, with posts anchored 2 feet into the ground with concrete. A few smaller posts were also added for the privacy wall, hand railing, and gate. The ground in our backyard slopes a bit, so they needed to make sure everything was designed so that is was completely level. During the project, we decided to make a couple of changes to what we wanted - Jose and his team were able to adjust on the fly with no issues. When digging the drain, the crew was very careful not to damage the lawn - many areas that were dug up would be replaced with the sod. When the drain was completed, it's almost impossible to tell that the yard was dug up at all. In areas where the lawn was too damaged to recover, it was replaced with new sod as part of the project. The same was done around the patio as there was no way the lawn would recover in those areas due to the extent of the work being performed. Throughout the project, Adrian would consistently stop by the check and progress and see if I had any questions or concerns. At the end of the project, he did a couple of walkthroughs to confirm the quality of the work and that there were no issues that needed to be addressed. Adrian identified a few very minor issues that I didn't even notice and sent his crew out again to fix them. This really demonstrated to me that customer satisfaction was more important to him that his bottom line. If I have any additional projects in the future that they specialize in, Premium Drainage and Erosion Solutions will definitely be my first choice."

"Two very pleasant gentlemen came and cleared a yard full of weeds. They also gave some advice to prevent further weed problems. I'll definitely hire Envirogrow again for gardening."

"I just had ET General Contractor Inc. install a new patio at my home. Julio is extremely knowledgeable and kind. He and his crew worked hard, completed the project within our timeframe and was affordable. My project was extensive but Julio and his team made it look like a breeze. If you are looking for any kind of home improvement and/or landscaping, I highly encourage you to call Julio."

"Mr. Scott and his crew did great work. He refinished our deck and power washed and painted the trimming on our house. He was on time and helpful every step of the way. He also does home improvements and we will be calling him again"

"The work Superior Landscaping performed was flawless. The patio looks amazing, the retaining walls with custom lighting are beautiful and everything Troy recommended for the job was spot on. The communication before and during the job was very clear and the project was started on time and finished on time, if not ahead of schedule. This is the second time we have hired Superior Landscaping. Both were largish projects and both came out perfect. I would not hesitate to recommend and will use Superior again in the future. They go above and beyond what is required!"

"C & C Grading has 20+ years of excavating experience. Chris really takes pride in his work, and it shows. I interviewed half dozen excavators for my job. Without a doubt, I would use C & C again."

"Excellent. We have been customers for more than 10 years and I have no hesitation in recommending The Pond Doctor. Mark and his team really care about their work and customer satisfaction. Mark is very responsive - he answers queries within hours, and brings a calm demeanor to every discussion about the pond, the aquatic plants or the fish. He explores potential root causes of an issue, presents solution options with cost implications and offers a reasoned recommendation. He never goes to the most expensive solution first, but he does give an honest, professional opinion of what he thinks will work best. He also checks back to see how things worked out. I have never been disappointed. His team is knowledgeable, always willing to educate about pond and fish care. We have been very pleased with this service!"

"I contacted Backyard Ponds on a Tuesday using the website and called on Wednesday. On Friday, they called to say that they had a crew working in the area that had available time if I would like them to clean the ponds. We discussed price-costs are determined by the number of hours the crew is on-site. Rates are $260 for first hour and $160 for each additional hour. As the ponds had not been cleaned since I purchased the home five years ago and they were dirty even then, I decided to agree to the cleaning.
Crew arrived on time and worked industriously. They pumped water out of the ponds, preserved the fish and frogs in a large bucket, clean the sides and bottoms, restored water from using tab water with an additive that reduced the effect of chemicals in the water, and return the fish to the cleaned ponds. I asked the crew to eliminate about one third of the naturalized lilies in one pond.  The other pond had large stones on the bottom that held lots of dirt.  The crew did a good job of getting the dirt out, leaving the stones looking clean and the water clear.
While the costs were a little high, the crew keep accurate account of the work time, even being conservative on their estimate. I though I would pay for three hours, but was charged for two and three fourths.
The ponds are beautiful and I feel the money well spent.

"Billy Willard promptly responded to my questions about removing an underground heating oil fuel tank from our yard. All permits and inspections were handled by his company. The actual project involved using hand digging and heavy equipment to excavate down to the tank; pumping out the oil that was in the tank; lifting and moving the tank from the yard through a just-big-enough opening in the fence; taking soil samples for state environmental protection agency assessment; inspection of the excavated tank and the hole by a Fairfax County fire warden; filling in the hole with clean dirt, tamping down the new dirt, seeding the disrupted area; and removing the tank from our property with minimum disruption to the landscaping along the way. All in all, a lot bigger job than I had envisioned, but the Willard sons and the other crew made it all go smoothly due to their competence and professionalism.P.S.: The grass even sprouted in one week!"
