LARRY SMITH CONSTRUCTION COMPANY

unknown

Excellent experience from start to finish. I had the work done in two phases based on the weather/level of importance. Bid was promptly submitted and competitively priced. Larry's work is exceptional - he is a skilled craftsman. A large portion of the work had to be performed in adjoining lots, and Larry was very respectful of my neighbors property in terms of access and clean-up. I am extremely pleased with the quality of his work. If I could give double A's, I would.

They did an excellent job. The work they did was very good. They followed up. I was very pleased with them. Actually I ended up using them again a second time for some more work. They returned calls. They were very good to work with. With regard to price, they were definitely not the cheapest and not the highest. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

We called several contractors for pricing. All of them seemed very busy and quotes were not turned around quickly from any of them. But Larry's quote was tied with another contractor as the cheapest and he responded first. Phone calls were always promptly returned and they showed up for work when they said they would and did exactly what they said they would do. The finished product looks great. They took the effort to match the existing brick perfectly and the brick enclosure looks new again. They provided proof of insurance and filled out IRS form W-9 without us having to ask for them. They acted very professional throughout the repair process. It was a pleasure to do business with them. I would recommend them for all of your masonry work.

They were excellent. They were fine and their estimate was reasonable. The quote was for $2150.00. They were very professional. They emailed us right back the next morning with the quote. They really were a little bit lower than the other company but that was before the other company gave us a discount. They have been doing this for 35 years. It took them a little longer to mail out the estimate, but they were working.

Part of the retaining wall in my backyard separating my house from my neighbors had fall down and the entire area was covered in grape vines. A driveway retaining wall in the front yard was also leaning heavily into the driveway, making me worried that it would eventually collapse on a car. I got a few quotes for the work - Larry was by far the cheapest. One other company quoted me three times as much for the back wall alone. For $2,500, Larry cleared out all the overgrown vines on my back wall (must have been half a days work alone), rebuilt the part of the stone wall that had collapsed and resealed the wall with mortar. He also completely tore out a driveway retaining wall and rebuilt it with concrete blocks and irrigation holes for the adjoining yard that had been pushing the wall into the driveway. Larry was very responsive to my inquiries and did great work for a great price. He works by himself so it maybe took a little longer (about 2 weeks) but I was in no hurry and it was great to cut out the middle man and work directly with the contractor. I was very satisfied and even had neighbors stop by to ask for his number because they liked the new wall. Highly recommended!

Very well. He works with his wife, who manages the contracts, etc., and is very on top of it all.

Larry came in as the lowest bidder for the rebuilding of the wall at $1150, and then offered to excavate out the additional rubble for $350. The wall took about 4 days to complete, and the rubble took all day with a front-end loader and about 2 overflowing loads of junk. He and his wife did a great job. The first wall-building was great - he made it out very punctually. The rubble removal took about a month longer than they thought to get out to work on it, however. Once they were here, they did great work.

It was beautifully done. I think he is wonderful. He was very professional. He did it the way a masonry professional should do it. He also went around and tuck pointed my house which is all brick. It told him to look around and see what it needed. He did the whole house, which is a big house, for $500. I will use him in the future. In fact, I have called him and asked him some questions which he will check out for me.

This is the second driveway wall Larry has built/rebuilt and I cannot say enough about his craftsmanship. He does beautiful masonry work. Our original 80+ year old stone wall was starting to lean because of age and lack of drainage. He tore it down and rebuilt it with proper drainage. He also inspected our entire home which is a brick/limestone construction and tuckpointed everything that needed it. I would highly recommend this individual to anyone who is looking for high quality, reasonably priced masonry work. He owns his company and does his own work.
