EXCELLENT Based on 108 reviews Andre Marianiello2024-11-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My wife and I wanted to install an automatic cover for our pool, but our existing brick pavers were unsuitable to support the cover. We got quotes for a new pool deck from 3 companies and went with Alvarez because of their good quote and excellent reviews. Chris was our main point of contact for this project, and he did a great job accommodating our our needs throughout the project. Unfortunately, when my wife and I opened the pool for the season we found that one portion of the pool wall had buckled into the pool, causing a bulge. Worried that this would lead to the wall collapsing if not addressed, we shopped around for someone in our area who would do pool repairs, but we could only find companies who would build us a new pool for much more than we wanted to pay for this project. We called Chris to tell him the bad news, but he told us that he could fix it for us. He found a pool expert from hours away to come down and fix the pool wall, rip out the old coping, replace the liner, and replace the pool fittings. The excellent Alvarez crew made in-pool steps for us, installed new coping on top of new concrete that can support the automatic cover, rebuilt our paver step, and installed our ladder and pool railing anchors into new concrete. Now my wife and I have a brand new pool deck to go with our brand new (looking) pool. Chris even gave us a 10 year warranty on the work, so we are hopeful it will be a long time before we need any of it redone. If it wasn't for him and his team my wife and I would have had to fill our pool in, but now we get to have people over to swim! Thanks Alvarez! Ashley August2024-11-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chris has been so easy to work with. We started out wanting a deck with a patio off of it and he convinced us that a full patio is the way to go. He designed everything for us and was there from start to finish. He is very attentive to us and the project. He always checked in to make sure everything was going well. His pricing was very reasonable. We are so happy with the final project and would definitely recommend him to others. Dennis Badham2024-09-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing job, Amazing crew! Can’t say enough about the finish product and entire team. They did all the things you expect when you hire a company, but it’s the little things and attention to detail that put this company over the top. Meg Parker2024-06-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When we decided to rip off our deck and put in a patio at our beach house, we got a few estimates but Chris and his team were by far the most professional and responsive. Even through a few hiccups, they were super accommodating and followed through with what we envisioned. Chris went above and beyond to give us a finished product that we love and hope to spend many years enjoying! michael aguggia2024-06-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hired Chris and his team for our back yard patio. Great experience from start to finish. Professional and responsive. Chris helped us pick the right design for us with resources, books, and a digital design tool so we could visualize the project. He was always available to answer any questions before and during the project. The foreman Heriberto was very helpful and worked with us throughout the project to make sure it turned out exactly how we wanted it. Him and his team were great to work with. Highly recommend.

I had been thinking for some time about replacing my deck with a patio. While driving by my new neighbors one day, I saw them having one installed, and was so impressed by the looks of it, I stopped and asked who was doing the work. My neighbor told me Federico Alvarez, and they were the first company I called and ultimately decided to go with, and I couldn’t be happier. Chris and the team made the whole process very easy for me, The work was done very professionally, super quick, and looks great. I highly recommend them. Gigi Velazquez2024-05-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I initially planned to install a concrete patio in our backyard. However, after speaking with Chris, he changed our minds! Not only did he thoroughly explain the benefits of choosing a paver patio, but his rendered patio design completely sold us! We are thrilled that we went this route. But that's not even the best part. When it came time for the hardscaping, Chris and his team worked efficiently and completed the project in a timely manner. The craftsmanship was exceptional from start to finish. Chris and his team were wonderful to work with, and they had no issues accommodating some last minute changes we requested. Overall, it was a fantastic experience working with them. Jason Holland2024-05-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. One of the best services I have ever had. Very professional, great work. It's not just impressive its unbelievably gorgeous. So many people from my development came and requested patios after the seen it. The Forman was on time and very personable. You will love this team and it's work 100 stars. Robert Hansley2024-05-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chris and his team went above and beyond for my patio project. All I had was a tight completion window and a vision and he moved mountains to get my project done and brought my vision to life. His pricing was competitive and he refused to sacrifice on quality. Not only Chris, but his Forman Eddie was available when you call and gave their best recommendations to ensure I was happy. He stands by their work and gives an extensive warranty on workmanship. If you had second thoughts about who to choose for your next outdoor project Federico Landscaping is top notch.
