Description of Work: Nicolas' Hardscapes and Drainage LLC installed a paver patio at the back of my townhome. Mr. Nicolas was a pleasure to work with and responded promptly to all my questions prior to the job. Visiting his showroom in Apex was well worth the trip and the time involved. This man knows what he is doing and obviously takes pride in his work. | |On the day of the job, Nicolas and his crew arrived at about 7:00 AM. The men worked very hard and completed the job by early afternoon as Nicolas had indicated in advance. The patio looks beautiful and has dramatically improved my backyard. | |Based on my experience, I would use Nicolas' Hardscape again and have recommended Nicolas to my friends and colleagues.

It was nice speaking with you over the phone. We always do our best to meet with potential clients as soon as possible. We do, however, schedule estimates in the order we receive the requests. Friday was an option on our calendar, however due to the MLK holiday weekend you were going out of town. We discussed over the phone that next week would be a possibility and we would play it by ear. We noticed you gave us a B and since we strive for excellence we would like the opportunity to meet with you to show you why we are a top rated company and winners of multiple Super Service Awards. Please call us once you return from vacation because we welcome the opportunity to bid on your project. Thank you.

Description of Work: They did a small patio that was designed for helping with a drainage problem. We now have a dry patio area. After finishing we were asked if we wanted the patio sealed for additional price. we wished it was discussed before the paving. We are happy with their work.

There was miscommunication about meeting. Before driving to give an estimate I call to verify the homeowner is there. I called twice and there was no answer, therefore no estimate was given. We take our work very seriously and professionalism is a priority. Our customers' expectations are always exceeded. Should you still be in need of our services please contact us to set up a meeting.

Description of Work: I can not express in words how WONDERFUL my experience was with Nicolas and his crew! He is by far the best contractor I have ever worked with. Nicolas and crew put in a retaining wall, applied top soil, planted plants and then covered with mulch. They totally transformed my yard! Thank you!

Thank you for the opportunity to bid on your project. Yes, unfortunately the city charges for dumping. Whenever possible we try to find other areas around the property to spread the dirt, however, we are not always able to do that due to drainage concerns.

Description of Work: Installed 2' paver border to existing driveway. Removed old concrete sidewalk and installed pavers. Nicolas is very professional and great communicator. He and his crew install pavers the correct way with proper depth and compacting of base materials. They use the best materials and are very experienced with not only paver installation but surveying the job for proper drainage. Would definitely use again for next landscaping project.

Description of Work: Installed larger more effective drains for three of the roof drains. One large need was to redirect the drainage further from the house. | |The plan was reviewed with me and discussed prior to any work. |The company and workers are very professional and responsible. The work was performed as scheduled and they cleaned up the site when finished. | |I was contacted following the work for an assessment following a heavy rain. | |Very impressed with Nicolas and his staff.
