This is a GREAT contractor. I don't think I can say enough good things. Gary is up-front, and personable. He clearly knows what he is talking about and told us some things about our project that other contractors hadn't mentioned. He is very thorough, and his crews are detail-oriented and friendly. They cleaned up each day. As with any construction project, there were minor things that came up here and there, but all were handled professionally and competently and they accommodated our requests. Honestly, this is one of the top 3 contractors we have ever worked with and I would recommend to anyone without hesitation. I wasn't sure what to rate for pricing - because my rating of less than Excellent implies somehow something bad, but I don't feel that way at all. His pricing is not cheap, but he is thorough enough to include things that make the job better - he included a number of things that other contractors hadn't mentioned - I'm not sure if they would have tried to add them part-way through the job, or if we would have just had to deal with problems later on. With Gary, he thinks of everything so is able to include all the costs up-front so you know what your project will cost. If you want a cheap job, go somewhere else but remember that you get what you pay for. If you want a job done right, hire Gary and his crew.
Description of Work: We had stone veneer applied to the front of our home. To do this, they sandblasted the stucco layers because there were too many to assure a good adhesion of the stone. They removed plants next to the house, dug a trench and built a small concrete "foundation" for the stone to rest on due to its weight. They then installed the stone veneer and trim pieces, including around corners and small edges around the garage door. After they did the initial work, we had them come back to install a screed on two sides of the house that didn't have it, which required removing existing stucco, installing new paper, then restucco. This second project was a pain as the fact there was no screed (old home) meant the existing paper was like parchment.

They are coming back out to do some additional waterproofing. Overall, it was an excellent experience. Due to my association rules, they could not bring large trucks back and carried everything in wheelbarrows. When they left, everything was impeccable. I had two massive tree pots which they moved and did not break them, which is a miracle. They were completely indepent and did not have to use my bathroom. They were totally professional. For the job they had to do and sheer size, it was very reasonably priced.
Description of Work: They had to take up concrete that had been poorly designed and installed incorrectly. They brought everything up to code on the outside of the home. They sloped the landscape and tied the gutters into a large drain underneath the concrete. Wasserman engineered everything so it went to one drain. They gave me more room so I could plant. They also waterproofed the stem wall.
