Get matched with top brick and stone flatwork repair pros in Pacific Grove, CA

"In addition to laying out stone work for our front and back yards, Jed and his crew also did a lot of landscaping--removing lots of shrubs and other existing plants and putting in all new plants and trees. We had him rework stone work in the front yard and put in a stone patio and walk ways as well as a drip irrigation system in the back yard. It all came out so beautifully. We provided the overall design, Jed make several very good suggestions that we incorporated. We did most of the plant selection and he worked on getting the best prices for the majority of the plants. His crew were all very hard working, polite, professional, neat and respectful of our property. They worked fast and efficiently with a high level of quality to their work. The end result is FANTASTIC. We love how the yards look now and once all the plants are fully grown, it's going to be really lush--with a good number of the plants being drought resistant. I will say that Jed/Eco Concepts is in high demand. He was able to work our relatively small project in between much larger projects, which was fine by us as we really wanted him to do the job based on the reviews we read of his work. We were willing to wait til he had an opening and it was well worth the wait. Jed is a really nice guy, very easy to work with, has good contacts and resources for materials. I highly recommend Eco Concepts for landscaping and stone work."

"It went well. They consulted me to assure I was happy with the trimming. The clean-up was acceptable. The city of San Jose picks up all the green waste, but is a little fussy about the debris piles. I had to restack some of the piles to meet waste company's requirements."

"Final Touch Masonry did an excellent job on our brick and stone flatwork repair. Their attention to detail and craftsmanship really stood out. The team was professional, on time, and made sure everything matched perfectly with the existing work. I highly recommend them to anyone needing quality masonry work/repairs. "

"I had an outdoor kitchen project that left incomplete by the last contractor. Maplewood Landscaping came in, fixed the pavers with the right slope, resealed everything, and really turned the whole project around. It finally looks and works the way it was supposed to. I am genuinely thankful for the work they did."

"Sidex Siding and Decking did an incredible job on my deck! The quality of their work is evident in every detail, and the materials they used are built to last. The team was professional, efficient, and easy to work with. They delivered exactly what I wanted, and the final result looks amazing. All my family and friends absolutely love the new 25x30ft deck! Highly recommend them for anyone needing a well-crafted deck!"

"Armando of Arsa was one of the original builders on our Mediterranean/Spanish Revival custom house in Pebble Beach back in 2004. He led a team of skilled craftsmen who essentially built and installed everything after the frame of the house was up. He did an outstanding job in the tilework, brickwork, stonework, installation of marble flooring and stone inlay, along with the stucco finish of the exterior and interior walls. Since 2004, I have called on his expertise to help with anything and everything - small repairs such as rebuilding a fence after a storm to larger repairs like roof leaks. I have worked with a number of contractors and handymen over the years in the Monterey/Pebble Beach area as well as the San Francisco Bay Area, and as many may know, it's challenging to find a quality and trustworthy contractor (or handymen who pride themselves on meticulous, quality, long-lasting craftsmanship). Armando prides himself in doing good work and for a licensed contractor, you won't find better than his rates. He is hardworking, meticulous, responsive, responsible. He is up for any job, from the most simple to the most intricate using high end building materials. Apart from new construction, he is a sharp and thoughtful problem solver for home repairs, remodeling and renovations. Example of his work, ethics, and problem solving abilities:For the past 2 years, we have had a roof leak in the living room with water stains finding their way down interior walls. After consulting 4 roofers (one was the original roofer of our house and couldn't figure out the problem, another said he would help but then was never heard from again despite multiple phone calls, and yet another who tried to diagnose the issue could not ever find the actual root of the problem), I finally asked for Armando's help. I was initially skeptical he would be able to come up with a solution after the 4 previous roofers failed to do so. It took him less than hour to think through the issue and we decided to test his solution on small part of the roof (as a cost-saving measure so as not to do repair on the entire roof perimeter in case it was not the solution). The repair was painstaking - little by little hand chiseling out the stucco at the second story wall right above the roof flashing of the first story, waterproof it and then re-stuccoing the perimeter wall. More evidence of the integrity he holds for his work is matching the exact color and texture of the stucco - only one place in the region made it and he gladly drove over an hr there to get the RIGHT materials (initially I said it didn't matter and did not have to be an exact match, but because it gets strong sun during the day, even the most minute of color differences would have been visible - Armando had the foresight to advise against a mismatch). Even if the previous contractors/roofers were able to diagnosed the problem, I doubt they would have had the patience or the skills to take on this painstaking process. Because some of Armando's specialties are in hardscaping and masonry, he was a perfect fit for this work. When no further leaks were detected after a light rain, he completed the rest of the roof repair. After the stormy rains once in 2021 and again at the beginning of 2022, we have been floored and amazed that there have not been any.further.leaks!!! I have no doubt that Armando cannot handle any job and I strongly recommend him for your next project (if he cannot handle it, he will be upfront with you). Give him the chance and you will be amazed at the outcome. If you would like to see more evidence of his work, please feel free to contact me through Armando."
