Best Driveway Design in Phoenix AZ

Amazing landscaping and masonry company!

Keystone has done a ton of work for us over the past year, and we've been thrilled with the results every time! The owners Daniel and Robert are so pleasant to work with--they're great listeners and they always ensure that things turn out the way we want them. They've given us advice about alternate materials or approaches that might work better than what we had planned, and any time we've gone with their recommendations, it has turned out great. They've helped us problem-solve several tricky aspects of our yard design. We've hired them for so many different things that I couldn't select all the categories. Here are some of the projects they've done for us:

- Masonry and block work, including retaining walls with stucco
- Beautiful stone veneer on our spa facing and travertine tile on the raised bond beam wall of our pool
- They did our pool coping in natural flagstone
- They helped us with some drainage problems where our yard was flooding anytime we had heavy rains
- A parking pad behind our RV gate with concrete pavers
- Custom gas fire pit with stone veneer facing and flagstone surface to match our pool
- CMU corner wall with the same stone materials in our outdoor kitchen area
- And they laid gorgeous silver travertine pavers, connecting our patios seamlessly to our pool decking, with an almost invisible channel drain between

We are about to begin some landscaping/irrigation with them, and then have them install artificial turf for us.

The crews show up when they say they will, and they work hard until the project is completed. And their pricing is competitive. We're so happy we found this company!-

We completely ripped out and remodeled our backyard this year and we hired Phil and Shearon Design Collective to help us design everything. Not only did he do a perfect 3D model of what we designed originally, but he also gave feedback and improved on our original design significantly, then redesigned the 3D model. We're so glad we hired him.

Some things that he helped us decide to change were:
- [ ] Overall layout of the pool
- [ ] Height and thickness of the wall
- [ ] Shape and radius of the rounded pillars
- [ ] Placement of the scuppers/water feature
- [ ] Layout of the pavers around the pool (he literally hand drew the pattern)
- [ ] Placement of our pool fence
- [ ] Placement of our cafe light polls and where the lights would fall
- [ ] Placement of the gas line for our removable fire table
- [ ] Layout of our front landscaping

Check out some of the screenshots of the 3D Model he created. If you're doing a backyard remodel, do yourself a favor and hire Phil and his team!

We purchased a Security Screen door from First Impression Ironworks on December 1, 2018.  After speaking with Design Sales Consultant Gary Stephenson at the showroom and in our home, the door was delivered and installed on December 8th.
Gary and Richard (the installer) were both amazing - very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.  Gary was very helpful and patient as we chose our design; Richard was also very helpful and professional.  The door is beautiful and was installed precisely.
The door greatly enhances the appearance of our front entrance.  We are completely satisfied with First Impression Ironworks and would recommend them to anyone looking for quality Customer Service and a quality Security Screen door!

This was our 2nd purchase from First Impressions, with a total now of 3 doors and one gate. The quality of these doors is amazing and the reason why we wanted to purchase another one. Although we had issues with our first order, we made sure that our previous installer, Jacob, was still with the company.  He was the one who saved the day and made sure all problems were addressed last time so we felt confident we would be well taken care of.  Our salesman was great, but basically all he had to do was measure since we knew exactly what we wanted.  The door arrived in perfect condition and even came with John Garrison, Director of Operations, who assisted Jacob with the installation.  What a wonderful man and great team they make !!! You can tell there is a lot of mutual respect between them and a great working relationship !!!
Everything was perfect and we are so happy with our new door. How nice it is to be able to open the door and enjoy the fresh air!!

Security Doors. Once again, I must give a shout out to another OUTSTANDING Arizona business.  We purchased a home in Prescott Valley earlier this year.  We have lived in the Valley of the Sun for 28 years.  During those years we've built several homes.  We've had security doors built for each of them.  So, when we purchased our home in PV, we knew we'd be having a Security Door installed.  The security doors on our first AZ home were built by another Phoenix based security door company.  Those doors were just 'OK'.  On our 2nd and 3rd valley homes we decided to go with First Impression Ironworks.  An amazing difference in quality.  Though at first they looked very similar in construction, there was a clear difference in the quality.  A few of the many feature of First Impression Security Doors are the 14-gauge AMERICAN MADE steel used, the top quality powder coating, the hidden vault pins (for added security), the double cylinder locks (for added security), optional Kwik Set or Schlage lock and many more options.  Each door is custom built right there in Gilbert , AZ by First Impression employees.  There is NO OUTSOURCING for any parts or components.  100% made in the USA!   We were thrilled to discover they have a sales representative in this area.  Aaron came to our home to discuss our ideas.  After submitting and getting our door approval through our HOA, we contracted to have our First Impressions, 'Elite Horizon' door built.  One of the many things we love about their doors is the ability to change out the screen to either another screen (multiple color options), or glass or a perforated steel screen (which we have in the valley).  For dog lovers, they can even build their steel doors with a built-in doggy door (we have 2 in the valley).  First Impression has ALWAYS been wonderful to work with.  TOP NOTCH customer service!  Our door was completed and installed in less than 3 weeks from contract signing AND BEST OF ALL, no special work had to be done to prep our door frame for their installation.  I encourage anyone thinking about having a security door, iron interior door, iron or wood gate, trellis, window guards, security screens or a host of other products built, consider visiting their website. Or, better yet, give them a call to discuss your needs.  I promise, you won't be disappointed.  Remember, they might be based in Gilbert, AZ (with multiple showrooms in the valley), but they also have an active business and large clientele in northern Arizona.  

Oh, for those who think I write reviews for businesses for pay, I don't!  I just believe businesses who offer superior products and services deserve to be recognized!

I purchased my home November 2021 and Sonoran newly remodeled/resurfaced the pool before I purchased it. Within a month of owning the home a pool leak was discovered coming from the pool light, and skimmer throat seal. I contacted Sonoran Water Custom Pools and Spa and was told because I am a new owner that the warranty is not transferrable. I thought to myself okay that's weird that they don't stand behind their service. So I went ahead and spent over $1000 to drain the pool and fix the leaks. Additionally it was recommended that I fix the foundation bellow my pool pump because the pump was placed over unstable ground.
Now 5 months later another water leak is discovered. This time the tile is found to be cracked leading to the pool steps. Why is the pool that is newly resurfaced already having cracks in the tile and pebble tec? Both my leak detection professional and pool maintenance person were surprised that this is happening so soon after the pool was resurfaced. The only logical answer as to why is that the pool company didn't fix all the problems under and around the pool before it was resurfaced.
I have reached out the Sonoran about these problems and haven't received a call back. If they are a reputable pool company they should care about the quality of their work and stand behind their services. I am afraid what other leaks and cracks this pool will have in the future because in less than 6 months I have had 3 sources of leaks. I do not recommend anyone uses this company until they start taking responsability for the services they provide.
