Richard Chilson Enterprises

Description of Work: He built a brick retaining wall next to our driveway. We liked the work so much and attention to detail that we used his services to build a backyard patio.

Description of Work: He built a beautiful porch on the front of our house and new walkway-- after helping us get approval from the city. It is constructed from a product called Unilock. All it needs now is sealing in the spring and the railings installed. He also ended up putting in new drain tile around my garage-- we had a terrible drainage problem in the back yard.

Description of Work: Rich upgraded our front porch and front steps, replaced our front sidewalk and created a small patio for a bench in our front yard. We have a ranch home built in the late 1950s It is a frame house with brick in the front. There is what I would refer to as a traditonal old style front porch of poured concrete with heavy duty rebar support. The front edge of the porch had chipped revealing some of the rebar. The steps were rather old fashioned but nice dark gray sandstone steps coming up through a notch cut in the front edge of the concrete porch floor and the sidewalk was a short, about 15 feet, curved concrete sidewalk leading to our concrete driveway. My wife and I had been trying to come up with something to improve the look of the front porch without turning it into a huge project. Rich was referred to us and installed a layer of brussel block inlaid in an appealing pattern on top of the porch concrete, replaced the front steps with wide sandstone steps which are a more sand color than the old steps, with matching risers, tore out the old sidewalk and replaced it with a very nice looking curved brussel block sidewalk inlaid in a nice pattern going out to our driveway. In addition, we had a nice lawn bench sitting out in the grass, but it had to be moved for mowing and more importantly, it could not be conveniently used when the grass was wet and it sat in a mushy area of the lawn. Rich installed a very nice looking semi-circular brussel block mini-patio for the bench and a side table so the bench now is more useful. Rich came up with the design for everything and it is a great improvement. It may sound like not a lot was done, but the improvement in appearance is pretty striking.

Description of Work: Had pavers installed on the back patio; the driveway; and the front patio. Using the existing sandstone created a corner garden with electrical outlets and a pond in the front patio. Landscaped the front patio, also. People in the know who have seen some of the paver cuts were very impressed.

Description of Work: Richard installed my patio for me . Complete job from start to finish. he left my yard looking a 1,000 times better than what it was . From the plants he installed to the lawn he installed everything looks beautiful . My driveway was always left clean at the end of each work day and that was very appreciated . I would highly recommend him to anyone.
