We had an excellent experience with John & his team during our backyard remodel and pool fill-in project. He provided a detailed estimate, thoughtful design layout, clear budget from the start, and his attention to detail throughout the process was outstanding. He visited the job site daily, kept us informed with regular video updates, and maintained top-notch communication every step of the way. Our new outdoor living space, fireplace, and bocce ball court turned out beautifully, and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!

Complete satisfaction. Professionalism? Top notch. Everything is communicated upfront and throughout the process as soon as changes happen. No fuss, no stress, and just be available to talk. John and his crew took care of everything. I'm typically very hands-on but I was very hands-off with this process because I had no doubt John could deliver on our agreed plan. When the outcome turned out to be better than your vision, you know you chose the right people to work for the job. This is a complete backyard and pool build for us. So if you're new to construction or you simply have fear around this type of project, save yourself the stress and hassle and go with John. You won't regret it. His high rating is yelp is not manufactured. If there's another star I will gladly give him that star. You'll get your money worth. He'll deliver and hopefully he can deliver over expectations like he did for us. Excellent company and excellent people to work with.

We hired Sunset Designers and Builders Inc to construct our pool and hardscape, and it was an absolute pleasure working with John and his team. During our initial meeting, John thoroughly explained his services and the equipment and materials he uses, and provided us with a detailed folder for our review, which was very informative and reassuring.Throughout the project, John sent daily video updates, including any changes to the project worksheet, which kept us in the loop every step of the way. John and his team were responsive, professional, detail-oriented, and always available to address any questions. They completed the pool and hardscape earlier than estimated timeline, something that is rare and greatly appreciated. From start to finish, they gave us complete confidence that the job would be done right.We LOVE our new backyard and can't wait to enjoy it!

I'm writing this review for those of you looking to update your pool. We had a pool installed about 20 years ago. What started out as just a replacement of an expansion joint, then became a little bit bigger of a project. We realized we should replace the cultured stone that had been eaten away by the saltwater pool. We also wanted to save our pebble tech since it was in good shape. We received two quotes both didn't feel they could save the pebble tech or wanted to maybe be a little more aggressive and try to get us to replace our pebble tech as well. Our third quote came from John at Sunset Builders and Design. John has been in the area for many years and a few of my close friends have used them in the past. I talked to my friends for the recommendation and John came out to look at the pool. He was the only one that felt he could save the pebble tech. His quote came in very fair and reasonable. We were able to save the pebble tech and John made a few other suggestions that really made the end result come together perfectly. One of the best things of working with John is his daily follow up. Not only does John come by daily, usually first thing in the morning, but he wraps up his day by creating a video of what took place that day and what is expected for the next. Something I'm not used to seeing with contractors today, but that kind of follow up is un-paralleled in his industry. I would highly recommend John and his company if you have any thoughts of wanting to update your pool.

We are having the best summer of our lives thanks to Sunset Designers & Builders! If you're looking for a pool and backyard contractor who truly delivers on every promise, I can't recommend them highly enough.John Zahn (JZ), the owner, and his trusted second-in-command, Nate, along with their outstanding crew, transformed our backyard into something we had been dreaming about for decades. The finished result is absolutely stunning! It is a perfect combination of beauty and functionality. From the very beginning, communication was exceptional. John has over 45 years of experience, and it shows in every aspect of the project. We received daily video updates so we always knew exactly what had been accomplished and what was coming next. The project was completed within the timeframe we requested, which coordinated with the rest of our home remodel project.One of the things we appreciated most was John's design instinct. He has an incredible eye for creating a cohesive, beautiful outdoor space, while also listening carefully to our ideas and incorporating our personal preferences. The result feels uniquely ours, only better than we ever imagined. Our project included remodeling our existing pool, adding a spa , new decking, landscaping, outdoor lighting, integrated speakers, and an incredible BBQ island. They even redesigned our patio cover so it blended seamlessly with the new backyard. Every detail was thoughtfully planned.The automation is another feature we love. The pool, lighting, and sprinklers are all controlled automatically with timers, making everything easy to enjoy without constant maintenance. One design feature we especially appreciate is the raised pool walls. Besides looking elegant, they provide an added measure of safety because it's much harder for young children or older adults to accidentally fall into the pool.The entire crew was loyal, friendly, respectful, and incredibly hardworking. It was obvious they take pride in their craftsmanship and genuinely care about doing the job right. Sunset Designers & Builders handled every facet of our backyard remodel, making what could have been a stressful experience remarkably smooth.If you want a contractor who combines decades of experience, outstanding communication, exceptional craftsmanship, and true artistic vision, Sunset Designers & Builders should be your first call. They didn't just remodel our backyard; they created an outdoor living space we'll enjoy for years to come. We couldn't be happier, and we give them our highest recommendation.
