Rooted Craftsmen

This company built a stone patio, and the work involved excavation to improve the grade. They did beautiful work, and working with them was a pleasure.

David is a dream contractor- communicative, on time, precise in his execution of the planned project and left the work site clean. He was early each day, offered improvements as we went along and provided expertise in his feedback. David managed all aspects of the project from overseeing the concrete pour, reconfiguring the sprinkler system to planting trees to clean lines of the new yard perimeter. Always polite and respectful, David completed the work on time and within budget.

The team that worked on the fireplace were great! Very respectful, as they cleaned up their work at the end of each day. My wife and I couldn’t have been happier.

David Garcia and his crew did an excellent job in restoring our pavered patio in back of our home, as well as a portion of the pavered walkway in front. They were innovative in using leftover pavers to further enhance the entrance to our home. Their workmanship was outstanding and was completed in a timely manner. Would recommend Rooted Craftsmen to anyone who appreciates quality workmanship. Don Wilson

The attention to detail is outstanding and really sets my yard apart from average landscapes in my neighborhood. I am excited to look at this work every single day and it compliments the house. Best investment on my property so far !

Excellent job! And they stayed with the job until it was completed. I highly recommend Rooted Craftsmen for your landscape project.

I had a relatively small project to create a pathway, remove weeds--lots of weeds, add mulch and stones, and a cement track for the drive and that was for a space of 15' x 60'. I went through 3 rounds of interviewing contractors, making proposals, and trying to deal lots of missed appointments and disappointing estimates, Rooted Craftsmen rose above 30 or so contractors. For one, David does business more like I am used to doing, personal and no corporate cookie-cutter approach. I was so impressed with the estimate and proposal that I added another 20' x 60' area. David listened to what I had in mind and worked with me to keep costs in check and offered ideas as we went along. Those ideas enhanced the project and made the difference from having just another landscape project into something worth talking about. Also, this crew lives up to their name, they are craftsmen. For example, the pathway was made of flagstone pavers. Most landscapers wanted to lay various pieces down and fill them with mulch or loose stones. This crew meticulously cut flagstone and fitted the pieces together; the finishing touch used polymeric sand to create a finished walkway. This isn't just some stones for us to step on, we have a crafted walkway and landing area for both sets of stairs. I gave five stars because the major issue with contractors and services is communication and overwriting a client's choices. David was in regular contact and kept me informed through the process; he consulted with me regarding options and what I was trying to achieve. The crew worked purposefully and with skill to create a wonderful space that I can use now and continue to add to in the next few years. Bonus points for complete clean-up. The biggest compliment I can give is that they care and they have skills, an unbeatable combination. I will be working with Rooted Craftspeople again.

David and crew did an exceptional job installing a french drain/dry creek bed and reinstalling a breeze pathway. Excellent communication, on-time, and on budget. No surprises! I will be using Rooted Craftsmen on additional projects. Highly recommend!

We recently moved to an updated home in an older neighborhood with a small, tired side-yard. We needed a transformation; what we got was a miracle. We consulted with a landscape architect who helped with the design. She recommended we hire Rooted Craftsmen, LLC to do the work, primarily because we needed an experienced stone mason who was capable of making the new construction match the unique finishes on the outside of the home. Rooted Craftsmen did everything: they completely removed all of the old landscaping, leveled the yard and rebuilt from the ground up, including sprinklers, lighting and electric distribution, gas lines, planting beds, sod, etc. The owner, David Garcia, isn’t just a contractor – he’s truly a craftsman. He planned carefully, had a great eye for detail, made many recommendations on how we could tweak the design and function of the yard and ultimately constructed the improvements with a degree of quality and care that made us feel like he was doing the kind of work he would do at his own home. The end result was a fabulous stone bench, fire pit and outdoor kitchen that is the envy of the neighborhood. Anyone can build, but what Rooted Craftsman delivered was functional, artistic and will probably last 100 years given the quality of the work. THANK YOU DAVID!
