Congratulations, no question this was money well spent, it looks simply amazing!  No doubt you will be enjoying your yard for years to come!  :D

Little details, so nicely thought out ahead of time.

The pavers look amazing, I'd be a happy camper too.  I will take a picture of the landscaping from the current place we are renting when I get a chance to show you what a crappy one looks like lol.

They also charge more during the summer vs. the winter, naturally.

This porch is gorgeous!  Great work!

Looking really good so far, keep the pictures coming!  Sounds like I got a bit of saving to do for our future landscaping... I think I have a copy of that By Hand software, but mine doesn't work really well.  :-\

Sure did!  We are happy with our purchase, and the fact that we get a yard, and so far it has passed the smell test.  :P

Hi, Does anyone have recommendations for flooring contractors in the Chino/Inland Empire area?  We just bought a home and are looking to install tile in the kitchen and engineered wood for the rest of the first floor after close of escrow in Sept.

Better to live rich and die poor, than to live poor and die rich. In other words, treat yourself don't cheat yourself.  To a point of course.

Well, I tried to get everyone back on topic but it didn't work, so might as well add fuel to the flames. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuI2uag0lsI&feature=c4-overview&playnext=1&list=TLvbNImgTzrQA Weeeeeeeeee... the people!

I had a friend who last week didn't realize he had a slow leak from his refrigerator until another friend who was over realized water was seeping out of a nearby wood piece.  At that point you can only hope no long term damage will result.  :(

I had this horrible experience at Colibri when visiting Portola Springs in search of a new house.  Did you know they kill dogs inhumanely and eat them in these parts, and toss the carcasses in the nearby landfill? Oh wait, that's not what this thread was about?  My bad.

They are, but the wood has more give that's for sure.  You can simulate these things by throwing a toy (let's choose Buzz Lightyear) on the tile vs wood.  Buzz can defeat the wood (ding it a bit), but most likely not the tile.

Wouldn't you be scared of your kids doing a face plant onto tile as opposed to wood?  We do not have kids yet, but this is our worry.  So the compromise is to get tile in the wet area (kitchen), and engineered wood for the living room and hallway.  We know we want light colors, just not sure if...
