Prior to my 2022 retirement as a local landscape architect for over 25 years in the Boulder area, I had the privilege of working with Gilbert, Jaime and Victor Rodriguez in their capacity as business owners and installers of over 20 complex residential and commercial landscape projects. Their exceptional work ethic and broad talents in full-service landscape construction including excavation, grading, concrete work, custom steel fabrication, irrigation, masonry, planting, landscape maintenance and snow removal made them my top choice for installing the projects I designed for several years.

Over the years we have worked together, they showed exceptional skills in reading and following CAD drawings. Their ability to translate complex grading documents into real world applications is rare in my experience. They have excellent communication skills both in person and electronically. They arrive on job sites ready to work with the tools, crews and documents needed to do their best work. They demonstrate the ability to procure all the necessary hardscape, landscape and planting materials and demonstrate mastery in using a wide variety of equipment. They maintain well organized, safe and clean job sites.

Their ability to solve problems in real time, communicate with me and other subcontractors, and collaborate with all members of the team to provide the highest level of workmanship in an efficient and timely manner make them a great company to work with. They were my personal choice for five projects at my own residence in Boulder and I frequently recommend them to my design clients for full-service installation of design documents that I created due to their ability to be "one-stop" providers of all the aspects of complex multi-month hardscape and landscape projects.

I would highly recommend them for inclusion on any team needing the broad range of talents that they bring to the table.
