Our Logo
- The STONES : Our Logo displays the old craft of Stone Masonry, which is the prominent skill developed by Miguel (retired) as a young man. That skill kicked off the company. The stacked stones reminded him of his long-cherished craft, which is currently a skill in decline.
- The COLORS: We started in California- The colors display the colors of the California Flag (minus the brown bear). The stones are over a grass patch, where the California bear would be.
- The NAME: That is a Family name, our family name - Yet it is a big part of California (Just Google: Point Reyes National Seashore, California). Too much History to list here.
Did you know that Latin America has more stacked stone (Masonry) than any other culture in the world... And that there are more Pyramids south of the US boarder then in Africa... And that "according to the Guinness Book of Records", the Great Pyramid of Cholula "is in fact the largest pyramid ever constructed anywhere in the world, with a total volume estimated at over 4.45 million m³."
Family Owned and Operated:
- We have spent our entire life here, in California. We are California natives. We know the west coast, our large state, and specifically Northern California. We have planted, cared for, built, and worked in all of the Micro Climates in California. We have a working knowledge of the winds, rain patterns, sun and temperature, coastal and inland fog, and the natural earth movements. We have aided in the repairs, both environmental and structural. We have seen snow in the nearby mountains and have felt the power of our plants and Planet (The 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake occurred in Northern California on October 17 at 5:04 p.m. local time). We know the history and can shape the future. This is California and we Love it!

At an early age, he stuck to his father’s side and learned the meaning of hard work. While other teenage students enjoyed the weekends and vacations, Felipe's winter, spring, summer breaks were dedicated to learning and working. Felipe fell in love with Architecture from an early age and began studying Architecture in Middle School through Electives, then all through High School and in to Collage and Postgraduate and Certificates. He picked up on the business, craft and trade just as well, physically building and constructing and still now… to this day, you will find him out in the field with the crews, teaching and demonstrating the best techniques and lates methods. Before the age of 19, Felipe reached the Journeyman and Forman levels. At that point Felipe was off, and preparing for his Contractors State Licensing Exams, while attending University.
In the past Felipe has worked as an outstanding Project Manager for a company that constantly ranks among the top (3) in the world.

(RETIRED)
-Miguel started working the land over 50 years ago. Mainly as a Stone and Brick Mason. Reyes Landscape Construction (RLC), started as a side job to fill in the wage gap created by Miguel's full-time job in the 1970's and 80's. Although he had developed his masonry skills in his early teenager years and honed them throughout his 20's, his job during the 80's did not employ his craft. Needless to say, he was not fulfilled as a ranch hand, but approached his job with gratitude, waking early and leaving late.
Miguel is now retired but still active throughout Sonoma and will remain in California for the for seeable future. This is his community.
