"M&J Prime Builders were wonderful to work with. Very hard working and did a great job. They can do most things and have great trades people. We had a big project - retaining walls, drainage, leveling, pavers, landscaping, lighting etc. I am very happy with how everything turned out. I would definitely recommend them for any big or small project!"

"He was quick, communicative, and partnered with me to achieve a vision I was figuring out to redo some really old boxwoods. Gave a clear quote and expectations and gave recommendations through the process which I greatly appreciated. I really enjoyed working with him!"

"Mr. Wu was very efficient and responsive. With this company did our front landscape job very quickly and recommended other contractors that they work with for our other jobs. Green craft is very reliable which is where any contractor."

"We recently hired Geico Builders for a full home remodel, and the entire experience was fantastic. Their team worked quickly without cutting corners, and everyone who came into our home was friendly and respectful. They kept us updated throughout the project and made sure we felt comfortable with every step. What impressed me most was how clean they left the house each day no mess, no clutter. The final result turned out even better than we imagined. Truly a professional crew."

"These guys were awesome from start to finish. Super hard workers they really took their time to make sure everything came out perfect. What I appreciated most was how easy they were to talk to. They kept me in the loop the whole way and made sure I was happy with every step before moving forward. The yard looks amazing now, and you can tell they take pride in what they do. Definitely recommend Artificial Grass Pros if you want a clean job done right by a team that actually cares."

"Easily my best experience with construction projects! I have an old house that has some suboptimal drainage system: some gutter downspouts directly pour onto the ground next to the foundation walls, and some downspouts are connected with an underground pipe system that does not drain very well. Josue and his team provided a very thoughtful plan with every detail in the contract, and swiftly finished the whole project in less than 2 weeks. The whole job includes quite some digging to implement 2 underground water pipe systems that navigate all the way to 30ft away from the house, plus additional gutter downspout installation. Besides, Josue assured 100% customer satisfaction: he is super active during the whole process, almost visiting the site himself everyday, and answered every single of my questions"

"We couldn?t be happier with our landscaping! The before and after speaks for itself. We went from an overgrown, dated yard to a beautiful, clean space our family can actually enjoy. Danny was the last company we got an estimate from, and we?re so glad we waited. He was transparent with his pricing, came in lower than our other estimates, and really listened to what we wanted while bringing great ideas of his own. The entire job was completed in just 6 working days. We?ve already received so many compliments from our neighbors. Highly recommend Danny and his team, we?d absolutely use them again!"

"Ken was very professional. He determined the project requirements, provided an estimated time to complete the project and provided a cost estimate. He met the requirements and did an outstanding job. Ken's customer service skills were outstanding, including the fact that he listened."
