Travis came out to look at the property and followed up quickly with a fair quote. We went with him based on price, his approach and his team's ability to address both landscaping and concrete needs. The grew did a great job and it was FAST! I left for work before they started, and when I came home they were cleaning up. They also took care of all the permits/inspections, without any burden to us at all. Overall, we are very pleased and would definitely recommend their services to others.
Description of Work: We had our existing landscaping ripped out (including lots of old river rock), as well as replaced and extended our concrete steps and walkway.

The project took 4 full days with a crew of 5 to 6 workers. After each day the surrounding area was swept clean of dirt. The retaining walls ran along a street. Several trucks and a bobcat were used. The workers were very professional. Travis Gay, the owner, was very helpful in explaining what the project would involve. The final result is very impressive. I would highly recommend this company to the members.
Description of Work: Two retaining walls were replaced. The railroad ties had rotted and were replaced with treated timbers. The excavation involved moving large amounts of soil, rocks and plants. Black dirt was brought in to restore the flower beds. A third tier had soil, rocks and plants removed. Black dirt replaced the old dirt. Cost included disposal of old retaining walls. Area was around 508 sq. feet.

The transformation of my driveway and sidewalks went great. Travis and his crew are very knowledgeable and hardworking. My gravel driveway tended to drain into the garage. They graded and sloped it perfectly so the water now runs into the yard without having to put in a grate. Everyone arrived on time, were very detail oriented and professional. I am very impressed with how smoothly everything went. My neighbors are impressed as well. If I need more concrete work done, I know who I'll be calling and recommending.

The job went very well and the new wall looks wonderful. I wanted him to match the other wall that we had done several years earlier and he did. They finished the job while I was out of town; when I got back, you could not tell that they had been working, the cleanup was spotless. This was a rather steep wall and I wanted an irregular design. Travis did it just as I asked. During the construction, Travis would ask me about design issues to get my approval before going forward. He also had some of his own suggestions that were very helpful. I enjoyed working with Travis, he is areally nice person, but also very professional. I plan on using him again to finish the front yard.

Travis was came out and provided a competitive estimate in the May and was clear about communicating that it would be two months before he would be able to complete the job. He contacted me a couple of days before the job was to begin, and the patio was completed in two days. Final patio looks greats!

I purchased on July 12th. About a week later Travis came out and measured everything up and explained that he was booked out until sometime in September. Job was completed on September10th. Since this was my first purchase on Angie's list I guess I was a little took back that I was charged the $1499 right away and had to wait 2 months for the job to be completed. Other than the short notice the day of ( 1 hour), Travis and his crew were exceptional. The quality of work completed was second to none. They showed up on time and got right to it, making quick work of the removal and prep process also taking time to explain what they saw when the asphalt was removed. The completed apron looks amazing.

Talk about above and beyond! Travis Gay and his team couldn't have knocked this ball any further out of the park. The estimate was very competitive with the other 3 companies I contacted and had give me quotes. He was on time, polite, and expert when he came to look at the work. He answered my questions without making me feel like an idiot for asking them, and freely contributed information that I should have asked about and didn't know to ask. When I told him I had scheduling needs - guests coming in from out of town - he accommodated my issues without a blink. When the time came for them to start work Travis called a few days before to make sure everything was on track. He came by IN PERSON to make sure everything was ready the day before. The day the work was scheduled to start the entire team was there 10 minutes early - they didn't arrive at the start time, they were WORKING at the start time. I was in and out during the 3 days the project took; I never saw anyone standing around with their hands in their pockets - they were there to get a job done and they did it. I offered them ice water or iced tea on a few occasions; they had their supplies handled. I offered them the use of my restroom during the time I was at home; they refused and went to the gas station down the street - they didn't want to muck up my floors. My new retaining wall looks GORGEOUS. It's exactly as I wanted it to be, and exactly as Travis said it would be. My quote included "no restoration" which means I would be responsible for putting moved earth back, but I didn't - Travis and team did it for me, even though it wasn't on the quote. He also made an extra trip to bring in some gravel for a trench that was left behind when I told him that my agreement to have my driveway redone fell through. But here is the kicker: Because the guys worked so hard, so fast, and so diligently I pulled out $50 bills to give them as a bonus thank-you. Travis REFUSED it - when I tried to insist, he said I should give it to his men. He said he didn't work that way, and that he's doing fine off of the quoted price. Have you ever had a contractor refuse a bonus? Trinity Landscaping was on time, on budget, on point, and went far further than I could have anticipated. You better believe I'll be calling him for ANY concrete or landscaping work I need in the future!

Showed up early. Very friendly, considerate and skilled in what they did. Already recommended to others. Did a full 4" of apron where many places only did 3' for the same amount. Great communication. They're working a good 4 weeks out and weather can easily throw it off.

From my initial meeting to today's instillation,I could not have asked for better. The estimate was very reasonable but Travis Gay even took the time to give me some pointers on now to prevent further damage to garage apron until I could get the work done and that was without knowing if I was going to hire his company to do this project. My asphalt driveway was sinking next to the garage concrete floor, my side walk had settled and cracked. The sidewalk needed to be replace and there was a lot of hosta plants, river rock and a wagon wheel to contend with during the excavating and instillation.The asphalt next to the garage was sunken and there was a hole exposed under the garage door concrete opening, 6 feet of asphalt needed to be removed and a 6 foot concrete apron installed. Travis and his crew arrived early today to do this job, the sidewalk was removed by using a jackhammer, the rock, plants and wagon wheel remained intact, and my yard was spared any damage using this removal method. The new sidewalk looks wonderful, the crew was so very careful with everything they did and they did a total cleanup after the work was completed. Travis and his crew answered all my questions, they where very professional and pleasant to work with. My neighbor was so impressed that she asked for an estimate for work she needs done--so will be seeing Travis and his crew again in our neighborhood in August. Ok I am pretty picky and have high expectation about the work I want done, these guys exceeded my expectations in every area. I could not be happier!!!!!! Thank you guys for a job well done.

Travis and his crew did an amazing job. Travis called the week before and set up the install. He called the morning of to inform us he would be on time. He and his crew came in, cut the damaged asphalt out and removed it. The cement work was done very well. He sloped it away from the garage to allow water to drain away. They cleaned up after themselves and were very professional. We will be using them again.

Trinity arrived on time and informed me of the process and asked if I had any questions. A crew of 3 started immediately and removed the old apron. They laid gravel down and added rebar, including drilling into existing structures to connect rebar to the new concrete. A 4th crew member came when the concrete was poured and they all worked extremely hard distributing and finishing the concrete. They all took extreme care to finish the concrete on all surfaces and edges. I was impressed with the care they took to make it just right. They then sealed the concrete and removed the forms. They took care to clean up the entire area. Everyone on the crew was obviously experienced and professional. They were friendly and informative. I feel like I really got my money's worth.

While initially it took some time to get an estimate, Travis did come through with a great price and in the end great work. He and his team (Frank, Shad and Jake) set and communicated their daily goals and met them. They didn't need to be told what was wanted more than once as they made sure they understood what it was the first time and they remembered. They are a hard working team and my neighbors commented on how nice they were. If I have another job I won't hesitate to hire them again. I would also highly recommend them.

Trinity was one of the only excavators that was willing to take my project, so they get high marks right off the bat for working on a smaller job. The pricing was very reasonable for what amounted to nearly a full day's work. They did a great job of removing everything, filling with dirt, and smoothing it all out. Travis and Frank are really nice guys and took all the appropriate care with regards to protecting property from damage and ensuring that the neighbors were impacted as little as possible. An absolute pleasure!

Honestly, he was a little rough around the edges-he was polite but used a swear word when he was talking to me. I don't think he was the person I wanted to do business with. I hired someone that was more expensive to do the work. He was quick and efficient but was upset about something that day- he was frustrated about something. I was just concerned that I might not get the quality that I needed and I was uncertain about something else which I don't remember. So, I went with someone else that was reputable and though I spent a lot more on it, they did a good job.
