glass block
+ -1 moreCommunication was great; Jeff was very responsive, professional, and courteous. Came out for an estimate when he said he would. The price was right in line with another company's estimate. The work was started and completed as scheduled. Very good work, did a good job of cleanup afterwards. I would use Crawford again, highly recommended.

pavers, gravel
+ -1 moreJeff and Jesus are both punctual and professional and I liked them immediately. The job went well. Within several months, however, the concrete started to crumble in several areas, rather significantly. It also has many pock marks all over the surface. Concerned that it will get worse, I called Jesus and also Jeff. Jesus promised to come out on 2 occasions but never showed up. I've also called Jeff, since he was the general contractor, but was only able to leave a message. They clearly plan to do nothing. I'm considering legal action.
Description of Work: Jeff Hultberg subcontracted a concrete job to J. Herrera Landscaping. I had my 4 parking spaces resurfaced.

glass block, replacement windows

Description of Work: I used the glass block and windows service of Crawford Material Company. They removed old glass block panel and put in new sixteen new glass block windows in the second floor bathroom.

replacement windows
+ -1 moreThey were very professional, the job was installed in the time frame they suggested, and they cleaned up after the job. I am totally satisfied, they did a fine job. They gave me advantageous pricing to do additional windows, but after some thought I declined, but will absolutely use them again when I am ready to do the other windows.
Description of Work: Consulted with me and installed a glass-block window.

+ -1 moreHe was phenomenal. His guys are very polite and efficient. The window has been put to the test by the rainy weather and storms and has with held. I have used him in the past to put in another glass block window that worked out very well also. I had people that wouldn't do the job but he did and it worked out good.

glass block
+ -1 moreHe came to give an estimate and specified which kind of stone he thought would be best. He submitted his estimate by phone and by e-mail. He also suggested (cheaper) alternatives but I went with his initial suggestion. He had the bricks delivered a few days later and installed them himself later that day. He was prompt and polite and did excellent work. There were perhaps four days between my acceptance of his proposal and the completion of the job.
Description of Work: Jeff removed an old wooden barrier between the side walk and the yard and replaced it with stones.

pavers, gravel
+ -1 moreThey were to the point and their quotes were competitive. I did not go through with the project; it was too late in the year. I will probably be contacting them again in the spring. They were prompt and accurate on price. They offered advice on materials that I would need for the job. They quoted me favorable prices. I would tell people to check them out. They are worth talking to. I got the impression that they will be a good outfit to deal with.
Description of Work: I contacted Crawford Material Company for quote on materials only. It was for prush stone and sand for a walk way that I was going to build.

hardscaping
+ -1 moreWe'd gotten several bids for concrete and pavers the year before from other Angie's list contractors which we thought high. Crawford's bid came in at a price we could afford and the quality of the work was exceptional. Communication and service were excellent. We love our path! We recommend them without reservation!
Description of Work: Crawford removed our backyard concrete path along our fence and installed a beautiful winding paver path through our garden. They filled in the new bed where the original path had been.

glass block
+ -1 moreSpoke with estimator to request quote. He stopped by in few days when we were out and gave us a quote on the phone based on inspection of the window from the outside; we didn't have to be at home waiting for him. We agreed to the job, so he ordered the pre-fab glass block panel. In about a week, his 2-man crew installed the new block window in about 1 hr. They did beautiful job with the masonry work, very precise and clean. The only complaint was that the crew arrived almost 2.5 hr. late, but didn't call ahead.

They even moved the grill & table back onto the patio. Jeff also returned while the work was in progress to check on it and make suggestions. We are very happy with the results.

glass block, hardscaping, pavers, gravel
+ 1 moreRegarding the windows: they showed up when they said they would, took out the old windows (one to be saved and one to be trashed) and did great work in a very short time. Great experience overall! Only complaint (small one) is that one of the guys stomped down a plant he thought was a weed on the side of the house when he was setting up his ladders. Didn't need to be stomped out and it wasn't a weed (though it did look like one in a way). So maybe make clear to them what's important in the area they'll be working in.
Description of Work: I've used these guys for tons of sand, pea gravel and rock, and will continue to do so as the need comes up. They can't be beat in terms of price, and everyone is willing to work with you if you need something a bit out of the ordinary. Jeff is a great guy to work with. I also had them install two glass block windows for bathrooms in our building. I thought I did a pretty good job installing three other windows until I saw the end result of these guys. Their work is impeccable and they pay attention to the details that add to the aesthetics.
