Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value
I could not be happier with the result from Craig and his team. They gave great advice, were on time, precise with their work and even when I had some changes during the process they didn't blink and took care of them with amazing customer service. I couldn't recommend them more and would hire them again in a heartbeat.

This company was great to work with. From the initial contact with Craig ( came out and discussed what we wanted and provided an initial quote that was competitive and very close to final price).
Crew arrived on time and worked diligently. We were removing a lot of landscape around original patio and extending the original patio by replacing with pavers. The crew dug up and disposed of old plants/bushes. BR researched the type of paver that was used on original portion of patio (we were 2nd owner and didn't have records) and the new stones matched really well. They Had to work around

We had several projects that needed to be completed around our home including a patio and walkway, as well as tree planting.
I must say from the very start Craig, was a pleasure to work with, from our first meeting all the way through the process. He walked our property with me as I explained to him what it was we were looking for and gave insights and suggestions that were within my budget. Most contractors that came out gave inflated estimates and were trying to price with "add ons" that were not needed.
Once we chose BR, Craig was top notch all the way. He was communicative, open

My experience with Craig and his crew was exceptional. The job was fairly small. He extended a flower bed, tilled in a large amount of rich soil and helped me pick out shrubs and a tree. They planted and mulched. He also installed a brick walkway between my neighbors' driveway and mine. His crew was very professional and punctual. Craig did a larger job for my neighbor and we have both had compliments on jobs well done. I wouldn't hesitate to use this company again and highly recommend them.

What an amazing experience. From start to finish, Craig has been responsive. It poured down raining and when I tell you my yard is so dry, I am so impressed with his work to waterproof my yard. We are now hoping to use him to section off our yard and design us a new backyard. You won’t be disappointed. Very up front, honest and reasonable!!! A++++
