What our customers say
5 stars for quite an endless list of areas. Initial booking of consultation was seamless, professional, and informative. Design process was fun and effortless. Invoicing and payment was smooth, and pricing competitive with like quality designers. Installation crew were near perfect, and were the hardest working people I've ever met; they know what they're doing and it shows. And of course, for the end result. The owner, Todd is easy to work with and responsive to inquiries and update requests. Lucio was an excellent team leader and the work he oversaw was impeccable. There were a few bumps along the road as there are bound to be on large projects, but ultimately they were handled well. I would recommend this team, and have, to anyone. Quality. Efficiency. Dreamy. We have our retreat ♡
We hired Dream retreats to completely remodel our backyard. I had a vision, and I a budget.. and after getting 5 quotes, they were THE ONLY company that listened and stayed within my budget and made my yard vision a reality. Everyone else wanted to sell me the “wow factor” that I didn’t want and definitely couldn’t afford. I worked with Sonny on architect. He was kind, not pushy and listened to what I wanted. He drafted a beautiful backyard. Alex, our foreman, along with his VERY HARD WORKING team made it come to life. Very professional. These guys had A LOT of demolition to do, they worked hard everyday, morning to evening. We looked forward to coming home from work everyday to see the progress. It was like Christmas everyday!! Alex was responsive to all my texts and questions. We even had an issue with a tile piece after they had completed their work and they came out and replaced it. This company is top notch. They are thorough, hard working and listen to their customers. Very professional and I am happy with our end result. Our yard is beautiful!! We love it!! Thank you!
