McGee brothers rebuilt the brick wall at the end of our driveway that was leaning and about to fall over. They also fortified the bars and mortar on other parts of the wall where mortar had fallen out. They did a great job and were very professional and knowledgable. Price may be a little higher but quality is excellent and I would definitely use them again.

Very smooth. We haas a pool put in at the same time and the contractors all worked very well together. Very fast, professional and courteous. Couldn't have asked for a better experience!
Description of Work: Built a fireplace, outdoor kitchen and patio (20x22). They were able to find our discontinued brick so it looks like it has always been with the house. They did a remarkable job and accommodated all of our special requests.

Although I was not happy with the deck workmanship, I agreed to use Mike to do the columns after a replacement retaining wall was built (caused partially by the improper footings; 12 inches deep instead of down to native soil behind a wood wall. Mike agreed to do the columns at his cost due to the failure of the columns Mcgee had built. After Mcgee finished the deck job, Mike Prince would not return my e-mails or phone calls. I had to pay $1500 more than his estimate to get the job done. The original column work was done by Mcgee as a subcontractor for Fortis Homes, now K Hovnanian. I had documentation with Fortis about the footings. I contacted K Hovnanian to get a copy of the documentation with Mcgee, but they don't have any documentation from Fortis. My firm belief is that Mcgee intentionally installed improper footings to save money. I think it is doubtful Fortis would not have specified how the deep the footings should be when I specified to original soil. I don't think it takes an engineer to know you don't build heavy brick columns on fill dirt behind a 9 foot high wooden retaining wall on footings 12 inches deep. My wooden wall would have lasted another 10 years if not for the failure of the columns. I just spent over $37,000.00 on a new wall and columns due to either Mcgee's intentional deception or total incompetence in 1995. The official response through Mike Prince was to lie and commit to help me, and then leave me in the lurch. I guess making a profit matters more than integrity to Mr. Prince; and apparently to Mcgee as a company.
Description of Work: Project was to put a new roof on my deck. Mcgee was the masonry sub. Removed old brick columns, patched stone floor, replaced mortar joints. Work was slow and had to be redone a number of times due to mistakes and poor quality. Mcgee (Mike Prince 704-361-8718) committed to replace 3 brick columns Mcgee built in 1995. The columns failed due to improper footings Mcgee put in.

Larry McGee responded quickly and came out to give an estimate. He started the work within a couple of days and had to come on more than one occasion to complete the job. He did a good job, was thorough and had a great attitude.

Description of Work: Conclusion: Very positive experience. These guys are great at brick and stone work. Hire them. We hired McGee Bros for 2 jobs- one for the brick foundation on a new addition and then to build serveral patios and paths from slate. I would do it again in a second. We got multiple bids on 2 jobs and they were not the cheapest, but very close to the lowest and came highly recommended by a friend. Sure enough, they were as advertsied. Show up when they say, deliver what they promise, accurate estimates. They are big enough that they have all the right equipment and enough guys. When the crew showed up to do the work, they show up like the marines- first thing in the morning- bunch of guys- work all day, minimum breaks, work like crazy till the sun goes down. If they can get it done in 1 day, they will. You can tell they are not getting paid by the hour- family business. This was a stark contrast to many of the other contractors we hired who were a mix of slackers and misfits. If I ever need brick/ stone work again, I won't even bother with getting multiple bids, I'm just calling McGee Bros.

Three and one-half days later, no quote was provided by McGee Brothers. I should not have to follow-up with a contractor. If the contractor wants a chance at the job, it is their responsibility to follow through. If their lack of timeliness in providing a quote is any indication of their responsiveness on the job, I would not hire them. I have hired another contractor for the driveway job.

These guys were amazing. From the second I received the quote (professional and in electronic format), to the scheduling, to the follow up... it was a wonderful experience. I renovate homes and deal with a multitude of contractors. These guys are top notch in my opinion and, best of all, had the best price of any of the other companies I contacted. Their work was professional, timely, and they followed through with what they said they would do. After they finished the slab, they came back and graded out the excess material in the front and back of the garage. The material was too loose to drive on, so I contacted Ryan to ask if they would spread some additional base material to finish it off. Ryan priced it and completed in less than a week and just charged me for the load of material. It looks amazing. If you are getting a quote for concrete or masonry, definitely contact these guys and if they are even close to your lowest price, use them. You won't be sorry. Jeff Johnson NewPath Properties
Description of Work: McGee Brothers poured a 980 sf garage slab inside of a finished garage structure that had dirt floors. They graded the interior, poured the slab and finished it. They also spread a load of ABC base on the driveway to complete the job.

I asked McGee Brick to quote on repairing a leaking deck on a brick house. Alan McGee was extremely helpful and although their in house project manager didn't want to take on the liability of a repair job they searched all of their job sites for a couple of pallets of brick that was out of production. They found some and delivered it the next day. They even brought over other contractors to look at the job on my behalf. Alan was extremely helpful and I'll be calling McGee Brick for any future brick work.

The work was done very quickly which is remarkable because they moved all the material through a basement window that was only about 18" high and 24" wide. It was much like building a ship in a bottle only twice as difficult. They came in the early AM, cleared the old masonry, finished the footing by the next day, poured the concrete, built the 5' wall, cleaned up expertly. I think they may have left a few shards of old mortar around the basement window so the old building inspector part of me would have something to complain about.
Description of Work: The retaining wall in the basement of our 1935 bungalow fell over due to the drought according to the engineer who looked at the mess. It is a half basement with no exterior access. The old masonry needed to be removed and a new wall built to protect the footings of existing piers. Got several estimates but McGee was the not the lowest but had the most sensible solution. They removed the old masonry, set the loose dirt aside to back fill. They dug the footings and place the rebar. As a retired building inspector, I had to look at the footings before they poured the footings. It was text book perfect. They had not disturbed the soil bell under the existing piers. Even though it was only cinder block and mortar, I thought it was mighty pretty.

Contacted them after seeing their work on a neighbor's house down the street. Was very impressed with work. I contacted Garrett Jones and he was prompt in returning calls and showing up on time. He gave a detailed estimate and offered options on how to fix drainage problem, the basis of my initial call. Very reasonable pricing, cheaper and faster than what I could do as I have the skills to do the job, just not the time! Agreed to hire them and Garrett stated they could start three days later, weather permitting, and they showed up when they said they would. We were very impressed by the professionalism and courtesy they displayed the whole 10 hours they were here! ALL of the crew were dressed in uniforms and they never stopped being polite, even when the leaves were blowing onto the wet cement! What I thought was going to be a two day job, or more, was completed in one day, to our satisfaction. Garrett followed up the next day in person to ensure all was right and we were satisfied with the job (and drop off the bill!) and again displayed the utmost professionalism. He said to be sure to call if we need anything and I told him I would be sure to!
Description of Work: Removed existing concrete patio, brickwork and excess dirt in backyard. Replaced concrete patio with new, larger one and re-graded backyard to alleviate drainage problems. Once all concrete and grading work was done, company then seeded, fertilized and spread straw on new lawn.
