Absolutely awful. He never showed up for the first appointment he scheduled with me. I waited over an hour and a half. No call, no nothing. So that night I called and spoke to who I guess is his receptionist? She apologized and explained that he was just sooooo busy that day. I told her my time is valuable and I can't be waiting around for someone. She offered to reschedule for the next day. I told her I'd reschedule but I better not get stood up again. I made sure she had my phone number, again explained that I don't have time to sit around, and said I expected a call if he was running behind, etc. Guess what? The next day was the same thing. Again, he never showed up and I never even got a call. I was so p***** I left a message on his voicemail saying I'd like to talk to him about how he runs his business. Guess what? I never got a call on that either. Is this the type of person you want working on your home? I know what my answer is.

This contractor did a great job with the work they provided. The patio was built quickly, at a reasonable price, and it turned out more beautiful than I expected it would. I'd recommend them to anyone, and use them again the next time I need something built. The only problem I had with the service they provided was that they only gave us one day's advance notice to tell us he was ready to begin work, which meant we needed to scramble to clear the area so that the workers could do their job.
Description of Work: We hired Michael A. for a new concrete patio. This job required digging and excavation of the building area, and then the building of the patio, which was finished with a layer of attractive stonework.
