Our commitment to customer satisfaction in every step of each individual project, from beginning to end, puts us above the rest.
"Brian came over after we had talked with several contractors about a concrete porch underside (in basement room) and one of those contractors made us think the concrete was in such a bad state of "imminent failure" that it needs a full replacement.So, while we continued to get quotes for a full replacement, we also asked a retired architect friend to give his opinion. He did not think concrete was so bad and he was glad we were having a structural engineer (Brian) coming over a few days later. Brian explained why he did not think the concrete was in need of full replacement (very expensive!) and also the damage was not a foundation/structure integrity issue (not "imminent failure"). We had spoken to several contractors and the cost to fully replace is upwards of 15-20 thousand dollars. From the state of the concrete, Brian did not believe the "symptoms" warranted a full replacement and that the more likely issue was simply that we never "sealed" the concrete with epoxy (and only painted the concrete porch). Given the sky-rocketing costs to do any home repairs, it seems more reasonable for us to do first level repair (not replace) that Brian suggests. Brian's honest and informative consultation (for free!!!) is piece of mind and a HUGE savings. We greatly appreciate Brian coming over to educate us - on his own dime. We will definitely ask Brian to come over again if/when we think we need an honest assessment of our home foundation needs."

"We hired them to do a demolition project for us in spring 2021. They bid a fair price and finished the demolition quickly. TJ and his crew all seemed quite nice and friendly. The problem is they never finished cleaning up all the stuff that they said they’d take away. It’s been two years and I’ve been reminding him periodically, but I think it’s been long enough. If you use them just make sure you don’t make the last payment before the work is completely finished."

"we had multiple issues with the garage build we had done. 1. demo day they left behind 2 huge pieces of concrete pad then wanted us to split the cost because they went over on weight on the dumpster. 2. when they poured the concrete the next day a big piece of the corner broke off. 3. framing day they missed close to 60 misssed nails in the 2x4 to osb sheeting. and didn't nail 3 studs completely. 4. there was exposed man door and garage door framing exposing the wood to the elements, when asked why it was not sided or covered with flashing we was told it was "industry standard "to leave the wood exposed to the elements. 5. the garage door leaks and he refuses to look at it and states it's not under warranty. it took us close to 4 weeks to get them to come back and fix all their mistakes, all except the garage door because i did not see that until 2 months later, and he is refusing to contact he to take care of the situation. yet warranty is a year on the garage. overall i would not recommend this company to friends and family due to poor communication , inadequate site supervision of subcontractors, his subcontractors were vert sloppy and lacked attention to detail."

To calculate your paver needs:
Determine how many pavers cover a square foot.
Determine how many square feet you need.
Add an additional 10% to 20% for breakage and waste.
Consider your pavers’ sizes.
Or, you can hire a local pro who you know will get the right measurements the first time. This way, you get your weekend back instead of spending it measuring square footage.
A pallet of pavers costs $300 to $700 on average, and each pallet covers 56 square feet. The exact price depends on the type, size, and quantity of pavers you choose. Buying in bulk can sometimes offer additional savings, especially for larger projects. Ask your pro how you can save on material costs.
To get the best prices on pavers:
Hire a professional landscaper: Pros often receive discounts on materials, which can make hiring them more cost-effective overall.
Shop at local building supply stores: Check for overstock or bulk purchase deals. Bulk purchasing can be more costly up front but save you money in the long run.
Buy directly from manufacturers: Purchasing from a local brickyard or paver factory can offer competitive prices, especially for large quantities.
The main difference between driveway pavers and patio pavers is their load-bearing capacity. Driveway pavers are designed to withstand the weight of vehicles, whereas patio pavers aren’t suitable for such heavy loads. You can use driveway pavers for a patio, but using patio pavers for a driveway could lead to damage. Always check the weight limits of pavers and consult with a professional installer to choose the right type for your project.
Paver patios cost more than concrete patios because the materials and installation methods require advanced techniques and skilled labor. They deliver enhanced aesthetic appeal and allow for easier small‑scale repairs without affecting property taxes. The higher expense arises from premium paver materials and intricate installation processes that deliver long‑lasting durability and design flexibility. This robust solution provides notable benefits over concrete alternatives, making it a valuable investment for homeowners.
