They navigated the rainy weather and worked in the blazing heat to build the garden of my dreams. They protected my property as they worked. They were honest and openly communicated on their progress and were very polite and friendly to work with. I would highly recommend them.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Cacilhas contracting to do a Aurmor stone garden bed at the front of the house, we are beyond happy with it! All the neighbours were happy too, they left a gift card for a car wash for an inconvenience and dust. Great group of guys, very professional and respectful. Would recommend Time and Time Again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cacilhas Contracting did a complete landscaping job with drainage, a stone patio, retaining walls, walkways and a new staircase in our backyard after a construction project was completed. Shawn worked closely with us to design the landscaping and was always ready with ideas and advice. He was friendly yet professional, very easy to contact and an excellent communicator. His crew were likewise friendly and professional and worked efficiently and effectively. We’re extremely happy with the final look of the yard and would recommend them highly to you.

I could never have imagined the gorgeous pond that him and his guys made for me. I cannot recommend them enough. They were on time, on budget, and did a terrific job.
