I had researched almost every available option for artificial turf and got four quotes. Then I found Bay Area Turf on Yelp. Matt was able to come out very quickly to look at our fairly small project. He gave us a quote that evening that was far less than any other company, and had an opening the next week instead of having to wait for two to three weeks.

He and his guys showed up right on time and finished the job in one day, versus 2 plus days quoted by the others. Matt was a real pleasure to work with! He was very professional and honest, I didn't feel like we were being "sold" on his proposal. There was no pressure to do the job, as there was with other companies. He and his guys worked diligently through the day and cleaned up the site when they were done. All the guys seemed like they actually enjoy what they do and worked very hard to do an excellent job.

I really appreciated the fact that the owner was on site working the job. I believe that working with this company gave us a far better result than we could have expected with the larger companies in the area. Their pride in their work was evident. All in all, a great experience that went much better than I had anticipated. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone I know looking for this type of product. We've transformed our back yard from a muddy mess created by our two Labradors and various raccoons and other wildlife to a beautiful green yard. My husband was amazed that when he left for work in the morning, the yard was a disaster and he came back to a clean and lovely place!

I would definitely give Matt a call because I believe that you'll be very impressed with his professionalism and commitment to a quality job.

I feel very fortunate to have run across Yelp reviews for Bay Area Turf. I have turf in my front yard, done by a large San Jose company, and was not happy with the quality of the turf, installation quality, or their price. This was done, several years ago, when there was little competition in the turf industry. This time, I did get two quotes for turf installation for my backyard.
I had about 780 square feet to cover. Matt, the owner of Bay Area Turf, gave me a price that was $1,400.00 less than company X. It was a no-brainer to do business with Matt, particularly after reading all of his excellent Yelp reviews, which he has earned. Matt came out; gave me a ballpark quote, and in less than an hour, emailed me an online contract, with that exact price; I signed, sent him my 10%, and in about 2 1/2 weeks time, came out with three coworkers, and had my backyard looking terrific in only eight hours. I had removed the necessary dirt; a big cost savings, thus the one day install.
If you want to do business with a young man, who has old fashioned values, yet uses technology to expedite the business end of the process; I highly recommend Matt and Bay Area Turf. I'm certain that you will be as pleased as I am.

Thank you Bay Area Turf team for our backyard makeover. The pavers and turf look amazing! You were so easy to work with and the job was completed sooner than expected. You guys rock!

We just had a terrific experience landscaping our SF backyard with Bay Area Turf.

Matt was great to work with from beginning to end. After some Q&A back and forth via email he gave us a very reasonable estimate before he even came out. Then when he came for the FREE consultation he was the only one of the guys we talked to who actually brought Samples of materials, and told us what was most popular and why. He was so pleasant to work with right from the start and always very professional.

I had several adjustments I wanted to make before the job started. No problem. Matt worked with me get it all figured out on what we were going to do.

The other 3 guys that came on the installation day were great as well. Everybody worked extremely well as a team and you could tell they had fun doing quality landscaping work.

When it was all done I remember my first thought was "an excellent plan - executed flawlessly".

The team got everything done in 1 day, all for one fee including all materials and labor. The final cost with all adjustments was very reasonable for the Bay Area (I did checking at other companies and with other neighbors and we got a Great deal for such quality work.)

Job well done Matt and team. I've already started the rounds of recommendations at our new community development. I'm hoping to see Matt and team become the defacto standard here at our nice brand new SF townhomes!

Do feel free to contact me if you would like any more feedback on Matt and the superb Bay Area Turf team.

I received a quick email response from Matt Watkins with an estimate for my backyard. I was very happy with the estimate so I made an appointment for Bay Area Turf to come out on 7/25/2013 at 1pm. They sent me 2 texts confirming my appointment and they never showed up or called.

I made a phone call at 1:30 and 5:30 to find out where they were and was told that she would get a hold of Matt Watkins and have him call me. I waited till 7pm and he never came by or called.
