Fernando and his crew worked their wonders and transformed our backyard from a mud pit into a beautiful patio. Thought I would show a before and after. Love my backyard now!!!!

I love it! was looking to do the same exact thing.

What color is that? Is that ledgestone sahara chestnut? Would you mind sharing what color the cap is...on top of the veneer for the steps?

Thanks!

Thx! It's even prettier in person. The stone on the wall is cambridge veneer stone canyon ledge - color Santa Fe and the patio pavers are toffee onyx. The top is bluestone cast stone. Hope that helps. ??

How are his prices compared to other companies that sell and install?

I had two other companies come. Both were similar prices as Fernando but one was much smaller than Fernando's price, and the other told me there was no way we could have the stones and patterns we picked out for that price. They wanted to just give us plain wall and the pavers just typical brick size, so I believe Fernando came in much better for the quality of what I got and the size.

Looks great! Is that the same angle? Did you have a retaining wall already or did he add that? Just wondering..

Angle is a bit off. We had a horrible retaining wall that they removed and built a new one. Chat Icon

When we quoted other companies several years ago, he came in thousands less. And the stones we used were Nicolock I believe.

Could you tell me how long it took from the time you hired him until they had the time to complete?

We used them for our patio years ago, now we want them to do our front stoop but aren't ready yet.

Keep in mind, we hired Fernando back in 2007 but he came in $3 cheaper per yard than anyone else.
