Called Sunset Construction, Greg answered the phone and he was pretty pleasant, at first. I needed a quote for a block wall fence. As he asked about the footage, I clarified with my husband whom was sitting next to me what the exact numbers were. I gave him the footage and then he asked other specific questions ( split face or smooth) told him split face. Then I tried explaining to him the look I wanted and what the neighbors wanted because we will share the wall. Granted, I'm not familiar with all the block wall terms so he said, "why isn't your husband talking to me? Women shouldn't be calling for these types of things." Ladies, if you want to start a project in your home and your husband isn't the one calling, don't even bother with this man. Very belittling.

I had a very large backyard living area drawn up professionally and when it came time to call over who I felt were qualified contractors that specialized in big backyard living spaces I was striking out. I had several outdoor contractors come. Some priced it so high I'd swear they were just trying to get rid of me. Others wouldn't even bother getting back with a quote. Others lead me on to believe they were going to do it just to back out last minute. Much of my time was wasted. I understand to an extent because what I wanted wasn't going to be easy. It was going to take a lot of work and dedication to get it done properly, which is not the usual small job and move onto the next situation. I contacted Greg with Sunset Construction and encouraged him he could do the job and have my full cooperation to work with him if issues with my plan arise. Greg didn't try taking advantage of me. Affordable backyard construction was something I thought would be impossible but he quoted me better than fair. Greg was in the back yard nearly every day he sent workers. He literally wasted no time and was blunt with his communications and actions, while still being a total friend. He also put up with my last minute changes. It was about 4-5 days of cement work alone. The outdoor cement stairs turned out beautiful. 5-6 days of masonry work for the seat walls / planter boxes and amazing outdoor bbq kitchen or outdoor bbq island (whatever they are called). The pergolas and patio cover turned out great. Really the pictures speak for themselves. Just look at my backyard. Greg is the first contractor I've ever hired that I didn't need to watch to make sure things were getting done properly. He turned my vision into a reality. It was a blessing to have found him.

I recently received a quote from Greg at Sunset for a decent sized (2,300 sqft) concrete project. After reviewing the estimate I asked him how much it would cost to add in some expansion joints. He then questioned me on why I think I need expansion joints. I responded nicely told him why I felt like it was important. Granted I am a Civil Engineer, so I know a little bit about concrete. This was then his response:"Thank you for your Google information. I am well aware of what expansion joints are for and know that they are totally unnecessary in our California climate. You should research what part of the country your information is coming from to know that you don't need them.Secondly, we are not pouring concrete during the heat of summer unless you're procrastinating your project until then. This is an excellent time to pour concrete and give it plenty of time to cure."Everyone should be aware of this customer service. In addition to this lovely email exchange he felt the need to smoke a cigarette while he was at my house discussing and measuring for the estimate.

Happy happy happy!!! That's all I can say! Completely recommend!!! From the first time we called Greg, he lightened up our day just by answering, for one. Second, he thanked us for calling him. Third, it made us so happy to hear him say he would come out the very next day to take a look at the project site and take measurements. He did his thing and was detailed on measurements, we spoke for a bit and he did his calculations. We couldn't wait to get started with him right away, we didn't even let him walk off to think about making a decision or have to even talk about it. My husband and I both knew we wanted him, so before he walked away I stopped him and asked when can we start. I was amazed at how he explained all details. He started one week later and We got our patio and sides of our house all finished in just two days. I am extremely ecstatic at how this whole process went from start to finish. His workers did an excellent job, Greg monitored pretty much the whole time and I really do appreciate it. We are absolutely thrilled to have met Greg and got the chance to work with him. The project took only two days, in my book, that is lightning speed. Just how I like it. I like things to go smooth and quick. And if you're looking for that, as well as as a professional job, Greg and his business, Sunset Construction, is the way to go! Thank you so much Greg we hope to do business with you again! We are happy, happy customers

Greg from Sunset Construction is the best. Him and his team poured all our concrete (patio, walkway around the house, extended driveway, and porch stairs), along with a patio cover including a skylight, two fans and lights, as well as a gas fireplace. They were always professional and communicated the process from start to finish. Whenever I had questions Greg responded right away. When the city came to inspect the job for the permit they loved the work and want to use Sunset Construction for themselves. It is great quality work that will last the life of my home and provides me a place to entertain, relax and best part its low maintenance. If I had anymore projects I would definitely give them my business again and will be recommending them to anyone looking for this type of work.

This was my conversation over the phone:Greg: Hello this is GregMe: Hey Greg my name is TrentGreg: And?Me: Just calling because I'm doing some work on my cabin and I was hoping you could help answer a couple questions for me.Greg: Where are you located?Me: OakhurstGreg: Can't help you *hangs up*Does is take that much effort to be a decent human?*Update to your reply*I absolutely called to get your professional advice. The area I am doing is less than 100 sqf, I would imagine that's too small of a job for a company like yours anyway. I am new to the trades and thought it would be a good idea to call someone with experience and see if they can answer a couple questions I had. If you're too busy to answer any questions, you could tell me , "Hey I am busy right now helping a customer but I'll give you a call later". Instead you literally just hung up the phone after saying you can't help me. I'm glad I didn't stop there after you hung up on me, a mason by the name of Paul Schickel took 5 minutes out of his day to answer a few questions I had and gave me some awesome advice. Really grateful for guys like that who are willing to share their knowledge to those who are new to the trades.I understand having a long day and working your ass off, I work my ass off too man. I have read your reviews and that's exactly why you were the first person I reached out to. Also the reason why I was thrown off by you just hanging up on me.

I found Greg to be rude and condescending. I was having a conversation with him over text about an island/grill I want to build on my home. Everything was fine until I asked a question about his drawing. I initially told him I wanted an L-shaped island but he insisted it couldn't be done. His reasoning was that the grill would not fit. If he really thought it couldn't be done, that's fine. But I was confused with his drawing because it shows an L-shaped design (see picture). I'm still not really sure what he meant by the grill wouldn't fit. If the design in his drawing was not big enough, he never suggested going bigger. When I asked if we could go with the design on his drawing (which is in an L shape), apparently that really bothered him for some reason. I attached a picture of his response. To be honest, his response really threw me off. I was being nothing but polite and respectful. Keep in mind that all of this conversation happened between Greg and I. My husband wasn't involved so I was confused by his request to speak with him instead. And his comment about my husband "putting me through this" was ridiculous and funny at the same time.

Sunset Construction told me that they don't install patio cover purchased elsewhere. So I asked for an estimate for them and their products, here's the answer I received "I already told you I'm not interested in this job. Why would I want to give you an estimate?"Thank you for not earning these thousands!

I did not have any work completed with Sunset Construction but did request a quote. Received a response right away and some great feedback on a ongoing project left incomplete by a previous contractor. Hopefully once I get my situation resolved, I can follow up with Sunset.
