"Although it was a little tough to connect in the beginning (due to summer rush and holiday weekend), once Maria and I connected, things went very smoothly.
She came to my house, measured and provided a quote in a very timely manner.  
I had to go through my HOA, and she was quite helpful. Providing the drawings and contacting J.U.L.I.E. as required by the HOA (and even coming out a second time to get additional details requested by the HOA).
We had set a tentative installation date (pending HOA approval) and were lucky that the HOA approval was received in the nick of time and the weather held out.
The crew showed up on time and worked tirelessly all day to complete the job. When they ran out of bricks, they went back out to buy more.  Maria  was there the entire time overseeing the work.  At one point we had an issue with the level of the patio where the base of the steps and the side of the house were out of sync (huge downward slope).  She noted the issue and provided a sound recommendation which I approved. At the end of the day, they cleaned up the entire area.  They had carefully removed sod, mulch and some of my plants to install the brick patio and when they were done installing, they replaced the sod, mulch and even replanted my flowers.  Impressive!!  Everything washed up (even the handprints on the staircase) and clean.  They were also very careful with the surrounding area.  I live in a townhouse and they used wheel barrels to bring in all the materials.  They were careful not to destroy any of the common area.  This is a huge plus and greatly appreciated.  
Overall, it was a very positive experience and I highly recommend LDP.  I love my new patio - even though it is small, it adds a whole new room for me outdoors.  Wish I could add pictures, it turned out great!!"

"These guys are amazing!! Don't even bother with other companies. Complete professionalism and knowledgeable. The closest I got to having my outdoor living area was going to my mom and dads. My parents were right, Pete and his care did a great job. Not only did they build on outside kitchen they built a fire pit area separate from the kitchen area. I kind of look forward to those winter nights now. Thank you and your guys Pete. I love it"

"After taking over 5 feet of water in an out building Todd came and gave us a solution to the water problem after many companies said there was no solution without pumping. He and his team of workers have done an amazing job. They trenched our entire property from 2 feet to over 8 feet deep. Very professional and hard working guys. The crews were very respectful of our yard when working with their equipment and always cleaned up the drive of dirt or rocks. Todd came often to check in on his crews and the overall project. He answered cell phone calls promptly and replied to emails in a timely manner along with sending the estimates and quotes for our jobs. After trenching the yard, they came back and did rock landscaping around our house. They did a great job of laying fabric around my plants and flowers and were so careful when dumping the river rocks. We will have them back when we have more landscaping projects in the future. Todd's should patent his saying "we dont have problems, we have solutions". We would recommend him and his company for any job."

• After we purchased our home in late 2012, we contacted three landscape contractors to discuss ideas for improving the landscaping.  Since we hadn't dealt with any landscape firms previously, we selected three firms from Angie's List and requested a proposal for landscaping improvements.  This included work in the backyard (remove deck, install brick paver patio, install lighting and landscaping, including all new sod), the side of the house (creation of a vegetable garden) yard and the front of the house (remove existing grass/install new sod).  Of the three firms we met with, Rafael from the Diaz Group was the most professional in our interactions.   We discussed how we planned to use the yard and offered ideas that we wanted incorporated in the design/installation.  Rafael offered ideas and recommendations regarding building a patio area using brick pavers while maintaining sufficient grass and plantings in the backyard to maintain an appropriate mix of green space in the yard. Rafael provided his proposal within the timeline he described. The proposal was very detailed and provided specific data points-ranging from the type of dirt that would be provided to specifics on the sod that was being installed.

We began work in late October of 2012-that consisted of removing an existing deck, removing the existing grass and existing landscaping.  Since we were installing a new brick paver patio, we had to obtain permits from our city.  Despite numerous challenges with the bureaucracy of city government that was extremely difficult to deal with, Rafael and his team modified the work plan to ensure the city would provide a final sign-off on the work performed. This included obtaining a civil engineer to review the proposed work plan and then inspecting the outcome to ensure it had been completed.  This is an unexpected cost which neither we or Rafael could anticipate.  We worked out a fair and equitable method of absorbing the additional cost.  The Diaz Group consistently made themselves available for inspections and were extremely responsive to my inquiries as well as inquiries from the city.  Final signoff for all work was finally received in the spring of 2013 so we were recently able to complete the project.
The end product is simply outstanding.  Rafael designed plantings in the backyard to provide visual focal points and chose perennial plants that complimented each other to provide interesting colors throughout the year.  His recommendations on using lighting have proved to be excellent-each day at dusk, the lighting activates and provides a different perspective on the landscaping. 
Since having quality grass is important to me, I've been extremely happy with the quality of the sod, including the dirt used.  Every piece of sod took and is now thriving.  The Diaz Group team has been extremely responsive to requests including making his team available to prepare an area for our vegetable garden so we could plant our vegetables and enjoy them later this year.
We are extremely happy with the quality of work and the professionalism shown by Rafael and the entire Diaz Group.  We enthusiastically recommend that you consider the Diaz Group when considering landscaping design needs.  We are really glad that we were able to find the Diaz Group via Angie's List-this is a shining example of why Angie's List works.
