Very poor quality of work. Cut corners and use low-quality products in order to cut his cost, having to micromanage his crews. All my countertops now cracked. He orders and installs the wrong concrete color, now I am stuck with the color I don't like. Rufino installs a cheap black host with the cheap $ 3 pop up disposable sprinkler heads that constantly leaking where I specify a regular pop up sprinkler head with typical PVC piping and typically found in a normal landscape water sprinkler system. He hired an unlicensed electrician, now my light does not work in my backyard, spent about $ 100,000 very disappointed and wanted to warn you about Rufino Aguluz. After over 20 requests to make the repair without results, he now disappears. We have paid in full. Stay away and save yourself the headaches.

Rufino is professional, efficient and trustworthy. He did an amazing job with our yard and we couldn't be more pleased. I would also mention that his crew is also very professional, polite and work so hard.

Owner
Don’t trust this man. He walked off the job because of a dispute with the company he was subcontracted with. He ended up putting a lien on our property after we paid him in full. He did this through no fault of ours. Thankfully the company that he subcontracted with is handling this. He overcharged for work that was not up to even minimal standards. I also read an article that he and his wife were indicted for workers comp fraud. Need I say more about this man’s character.
