R & M Coastal Contracting

We had Scott and team in to tackle a pretty major project in our backyard. The yard slopes pretty steeply away from our house and backs onto a forest, so access was tricky. We needed to remove the existing timber retaining walls that were failing, as well as the remains of a reasonably large cedar that we had had taken down, and various bushes and undergrowth.After that they built 4 tiered Allan block walls (approximately 5' high each) that span the width of our yard, as well as all of the accompanying drainage and stairs to allow us to get all the way to the bottom of our property.When you start a project like this, you go into it with a vision as to what you think the finished project might look like, and the team at R&M exceeded our expectations in every respect. Their work is beautiful and functional.They were extremely professional, organized and supportive throughout the process. They kept us informed with any issues and were very conscious of our budget and our family's needs.Can't recommend the team at R&M Coastal Contracting enough!

Great job from Colton and Drew removing our concrete slab. They were punctual, coming when they said they would and did a very professional job with a great clean up. I would use them again and recommend them to my friends. Many thanks Colton and team at R and M. Janice May, Parksville.

We’ve had Colton and Scott onto our property on Gabriola for 3 separate jobs. Each time they’ve been prompt, professional, and hard working. Prices are fair and the job gets done properly. They’ve been great to work with and we look forward to their continued help as we develop our land.

I highly recommend R&M Coastal Contractors for your excavation work.Colton, Scott and the crew were tasked with preparing our driveway for new asphalt, replacing the water supply pipe and adding 100 feet of drainage to our yard. They needed to tear out the old driveway, dig trenches, and attach existing house drainage.The team certainly accomplished this project in an exceptional manner as they are all conscientious workers and there were no unnecessary work stoppages. All issues were dealt with professionally and promptly.The guys communicated often to both my wife and I in a respectful, straightforward manner. We were always aware how the project was progressing.The price was fair and we had no surprises. R&M would be our choice for future excavation projects.

R and M did my Allan block wall and I couldn’t be happier. They are extremely hard workers and did a very nice job on my wall. I would highly recommend these guys.

The team at R and M did a fantastic job on our drainage. We have an old house and were concerned about the drain tile. They took the time to explain everything that they were doing. They even went so far to help us move some trees so they were not damaged during the excavation. They kept the site clean and safe during the project. They finished on time and on budget. We have recommended R and M on many occasions and will continue to do so.

R & M Coastal helped us with some drainage work at our home recently, and I can highly recommend Scott, Colton and the rest of the team! Their estimate was competitive, they arrived on time, where a pleasure to work with and did exactly what they promised - on time and on budget. Impressive company!

These guys did an amazing job on a retaining wall for my property in Nanaimo. Excellent price, and unmatched service. I absolutely recommend this business.

Colton and his team turned up on time on one of the hottest days of the year and removed all the bamboo and roots as promised. They worked hard and diligently non stop until it was done. I would definitely have him back should another job arise and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them as a pro team that get the job done and at a very fair price.

R and M recently replaced our perimeter drains in order to solve a basement water problem. Their team was efficient, professional and thorough. They completed the job much faster than expected and well within budget. I would recommend this crew to anyone who has a drainage issue. We were very impressed with their work.
