During the estimate, we were advised the work would not be a problem but it ultimately proved to be an issue for Richard. They were quick & efficient at busting up old blacktop to construct new patio. However, he decided to have concrete delivered on one of the hottest days of the summer which caused the concrete to set too quickly. We're left with a bigger mess than what we started with. Not only is our new patio a complete waste, but we've had to pressure wash our house to try and remove the concrete that was slopped all over the siding (some of which was just replaced). Richard's team left our backyard in shambles...covered in tools, garbage, and two large piles of wasted concrete that rendered my driveway useless for over a month. We were told he would stop by to at least clean up his mess, but he only stopped by to pick up his tools. My husband/cousin had to bust up the concrete piles with sledgehammers. Richard was apologetic at first and seemed eager to make it right. However, two months later and he's made no attempt to correct his poor work. We have to get someone else to come in and bust up his bad pour and start from scratch. Lots of energy, time, and money wasted. We do not recommend at all.

It was lacking in quality. They were very responsive, the work was done quickly but the quality was very low but it turned out okay.

Response from Richard Freeman
Me and my team were happy to help save this poorly maintained porch. First by replacing the old limestone sills with a painter brick that we were told to match the pre-existing brick on the porch. Normally we would have ordered newly pre-fabricated limestone to replace the old weathered ones. So due to financial hardship of the customer, We agreed to lay roll lock brick instead. I ended up purchasing enough brick twice to attempt a happy outcome with this customer. It was never mentioned to my employees or myself that the quality of our work was even the slightest bit sub-par in the customers point of view. The job was finished in a timely manner and the work was performed just the same as any mason with 25 years + experience would have performed it.

Richard was on time with the start and completion date as reviewed in my contract with no complications. I was very satisfied and would hire him again, with recommendation to anyone looking for a professional company at a fair cost for services performed.
