G&M Landscape & Construction

G&M did a wonderful total makeover of our front yard and we love the results. Taurino and his crew were super professional and easy to work with every step of the way- from the quote process to the final beautiful results. We didn't want to use a landscape architect and instead drew out a rough sketch of what we wanted and they were able to bring it to life. The project entailed removing overgrown bushes and weeds, an old decorative fence, and a weed-choked decomposed granite walkway. In addition they added: a French drain, small retaining wall border, a paver walkway and short dividing fence on our property line, plus they did irrigation repair and finished with a xeriscape type replant with drought resistant plants and pebble covering. It was a big job on a small yard. From the initial call clear through the quote process, G&M were the easiest to work with. Their quote was the clearest and most detailed. It incorporated all of the aspects of what we discussed when Taurino came out to see our place and the different parts of the job were listed separately which made it easier to evaluate the cost. Also specifically listing details and materials communicated the quality of work they would be doing. Taurino and his crew were really great to work with once the job started. Taurino was onsite with his guys most of the time and everything went well overall- there were no surprises or upcharges to job. We were very impressed with how quickly and smooth the job went and how professional everyone was. We provided the plants and the G&M crew did the planting per our design requests. Our property looks so much better and we have gotten so many compliments on the makeover. We are so glad we chose G&M.

We had a fantastic experience with Taurino and the G&M team. We completely overhauled our San Francisco backyard to be much more functional and kid friendly. The team removed an old firepit, old pavers, deck, dying bamboo and a sorry looking patch of grass. They elevated the yard and installed a beautiful new stone patio, a big new area of turf for the kids to run around, beautiful stair lights, cafe lights and uplighting, river rock and new plants. They also installed a new sprinkler system. The space is modern, functional and exactly what we envisioned. The team is very communicative and completed the work quickly but with a lot of care and precision. We would highly recommend G&M!

I had a small project that was beautifully completed as estimated. They came on time, were meticulous in replacing a portion of fence and retaining wall, taking care not to damage plants and cleaned up afterward. I highly recommend them for large and small jobs and will hire them again.
