Not once, not twice, but 3 times committed to coming out to give me an estimate and just plain didn't show up AND I had to call them to tell them. No follow up at all. Not sure why I was dumb enough to try 3x, but don't make the same mistake I made. They did work on a former house of mine and did a good enough job...but I think they are just too busy to care about customer service for a home owner and are more focused on big jobs.

It will come back an bite them when El Nino isn't making business quite so good for them and they figure out that us small home owners have left them for more customer service focused providerrs.

Excellent landscaping project performed by Bay Area Drainage. They removed front lawn and ivy areas, replacing with drought resistant plants and drip system. Paul Perillo headed the project and was very easy to work with. He took into consideration that we wanted an English garden look, and chose plants that worked well to create this vision. We are very pleased with the end results and we would definitely recommend Bay Area Drainage.

Bay Area Drainage just did a job for me at a rental house I have in Walnut Creek. They did a great job again, took longer than planned (When Wayne met with me for the bid he told me he was incredibly busy and that it would take longer than normal, so I was warned).

I had 2 concerns, the new renters and the neighbors. The crew communicated with both parties, the job was kept incredibly clean and everyone was happy, even though there was more work than planned

Would recommend to anyone, not the cheapest outfit, but I feel you get what you pay for. I'd rather pay once to have it done right than fight it again down the line and my house in Lafayette has been perfect for going on 2 years now.

We have worked with Bay Area Drainage for multiple projects at our home in Lafayette over several years and each experience has been exceptional. Everyone I have dealt with at this company has been professional and respectful. Our first project was a french drain system around the perimeter of the home. This was an easy process and the results have been great. When it came time to renovate our backyard, they installed retaining walls with drainage systems, concrete pavers and artificial turf. All of the materials utilized are top of the line, and they provide workmanship to match. In our area, proper drainage is critical, and I especially appreciate the drainage expertise this company brings to every project.

We hired BAD to do our front yard from start to finish. They installed French drains, graded our yard and installed our sprinkler system and sod. Their work is meticulous and the employees are fantastic. Would recommend them in a heartbeat.

We live in Lafayette and our property has a slight incline to it. As if clay soil wasn't bad enough, we had very poor drainage around our house - so much so that we had water pooling under our home.

After a quick response from Bay Area Drainage, our drainage problem has been solved. They showed up when they said they would and completed the job in a timely manner. They were very professional, did quality work and we most definitely will recommend them to our friends and family. It's rained twice now and the system works beautifully!

Bay area drainage did french drains and pavers at our house a few months ago. The work was done right and we have been dry ever since. Thanks Wayne and Javier!!

Bay Area Drainage redid our entire front yard along with laying pavers in the driveway. They showed up every day on time and cleaned up each evening. Everyone we dealt with was polite and professional. Our project was finished ahead of time. Any follow up that was needed was promptly taken care of. I would highly recommend Bay Area Drainage

I had Bay Area Drainage (Wayne) out maybe a year or more ago. For whatever reason, he completely ignored my request for services. He did not explain, nor did he even bother to call me back after the multiple times I asked him to.

In middle of July this year, BAD was one of the three contractors I reached out for a resolution to the drainage problem at one of my rental properties. They checked the property and sent me a proposal via email. Based on their proposal and the good reviews here on Yelp, I was ready to hire them then. However, I just had one question/concern I needed an answer before I accept/sign their proposal. First, I responded to their email with my question. I waited a few days, no response. So I called their office number, but got the recorder instead. I left a detailed message on my question/concern. I waited a few days. No response just the same. So I moved on. I should have paid more attention to the bad reviews than the good ones.
