The project initially looked good but proved to be otherwise. The new concrete driveway contains "water ponds" when it rains and ice rinks when they freeze in winter. The driveway surface after one year had pits, spalding, and divites throughout. As a part of the project, three sets of stairs were installed. The stone treads continuously "roll" and break loose when stepped on. I've had to grind off the old glue and re-glue nearly every stone on every set of steps at least once, if not twice. The main stairs from the driveway to the sidewalk leading to the front entry have now settled and are separating. In turn, the cheek walls of the stairs are now sagging and listing to the side to the point that and stone treads are loose and cause a trip / fall hazard. Poor craftsmanship and substandard quality. Worst of all, my wife told me not to hire this company, and I did not listen wanted to hire a local contractor for the $40,000 project. Lesson learned. "You don't always get what you pay for".
Description of Work: Hardscape retaining walls, steps, sidewalk, and cast-in-place concrete driveway.

Response from Blake Landscaping
First off the project cost was $10,000.00, $8,000.00 at one place and $2,000.00 at the other. Why would I come back and fix a front lawn that I had already put in when the homeowner did nothing in the way of watering the lawn, without water nothing grows. We did 3 walls and a sidewalk at the $8,000.00 job, and 1 wall at the $2,000.00 job. I told the homeowner we needed more 2B to backfill the walls and what the additional cost would be, the homeowner said can't you just use the dirt that you dug. That is when I said that over time the walls may push, but the homeowner still wanted to use the dirt. And how are you going to post a complaint 7 years later, I have not received a phone call from the homeowner in over 6 years.
