Someone from Little Dickens came out to my home so that they could give a quote on pouring a driveway. I had a single-car driveway that I was wanting to add a parking pad to-- essentially making it a double-wide driveway. A week or so goes by, and we never receive our quote. My fiancé called them three or four times and left messages, but we never heard anything back. Unfortunately I can't recommend this company due to their lack of professionalism and response.

Came and measured, said how they would do it and was going to call later that day with a bid. Been 2 weeks. I called both the company phone and cell phone, leat messages and still no call or any type of response. Had my hopes up 😐contractors are just plain tough to get.

Description of Work: I contacted Little Dickens in April about sidewalk replacement. The proposed price was just a little high of his competitors but he proposed a series of high-quality touches (rebar throughout, fiber mesh in the concrete, relandscaping with good quality topsoil and so on). We signed an agreement. Work was to begin around May 11, but didn't. I called. Work was rescheduled to begin around May 18, but didn't. I called and got voicemail, waited a week and called again, and again after a week, then again after two additional weeks. No response of any variety. I'm pretty ticked off. I suppose my next step will need to be a registered letter canceling the agreement.

I would never recommend this provider.
Description of Work: He came and looked at the job and said an estimate would be sent the following day. None was ever sent and no phone call to indicate why. We called him again and no reply. Very unprofessional.

All I can say about Little Dickens is "WOW!" I called him on Monday to ask if he could give me an estimate for part of our driveway to be replaced. He came that day giving a very reasonable estimate and came the next day at 10:00 AM to start the work. They finished the job in five hours leaving a beautiful, smooth, perfect cement slab. They were also very friendly and the owner even helped us shovel some lava rock and took it away for us. Above anything I expected. Imagine calling someone and getting a pretty big job done in less than 24 hours! Unreal!
Description of Work: Partial removal and laying new concrete for our driveway.

Mr. Dickens and his assistant arrived on time. He set up his work area. He began removing the grass and soil from the area around the existing walkway. We requested that the walkway be expanded to three feet wide. The assistant began breaking up the concrete and digging deeper to go from three to five inches deep. The ground was leveled with an incline added to allow for proper runoff. The forms for the new walkway were put in place. Metal rods were inserted for extra support. The concrete truck came and poured the cement. The assistant continued to level and even out the mixture to form a great walkway. Everything was set up for the overnight settling. The job began on Thursday and everything was complete by by Friday. All the neighbors have admired our new walkway. Our new walkway is beautiful. Mr. Dickens and his assistant did everything that was promised. The removed all debris and trash. They left the area in great shape.
Description of Work: Replaced the walkway in front of our house. The original walkway had began to crumble and was uneven. Which could easily cause an accident. It was also only two feet wide. Mr. Dickens came to the house to review the problem area. He took detail measurement of the walkway. He accessed the area between the front porch and driveway. Once his assessment was complete he provided his recommendation.
