I was pleased with the level of communication, punctuality, and level of detail that Sonny put into developing an estimate for our driveway install. I believe that the end result would have been a low maintenance driveway. However, the cost was outside of our budget and we have decided to go another direction.
Description of Work: Sonny came out and did a thorough job developing an estimate for our driveway project.

He was there when he said he would be and was very professional. I would highly recommend his services if you're in the need for some land movement in the future.

Sonny first arrived in January 2012, to begin the excavation of the addition. He was always pleasant, explained steps when I had questions, and my first indication of his extra care on the job was when the contractor told me my lilac bushes had to go, and I objected. Sonny gently scooped them up and laid them aside until they could be replanted. When he worked on the other side of the house, he also gently dug up my peony bushes and moved them for me. I was also putting in a small deck next to my garage, and the man who was trying to dig the footings was having difficulty, given our hard red clay. Sonny came in and, using one of his pieces of equipment, quickly dug the footings. Sonny and his son Paul are both professionals who are polite, kind, and highly skilled. I can highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Sonny Cox and his son Paul excavated the foundation for our addition to our house, excavated our driveway, and saved our shrubs and flowers by digging them out with great care, laying them aside where they would not be injured by the sun or by equipment, and then replanted everything for me. They also located drainage pipes, removed a very large, heavy, old septic tank, and prepared the driveway for the concrete contractors who will come in and pour the concrete over Sonny and Paul's work. Watching them both use their heavy equipment on my small lot was amazing, like watching a skilled surgeon.

The work was very well performed and even though the weather provided a few curve balls we were very happy with the progress made and the quality of work. During the quoting progress they spent a lot of time was spent making sure we had a common understanding of the end result required (they even came out on a Saturday afternnon). Even though we made a number of changes to our original thinking we never felt like this caused any problems and were very comfortable being able to conduct an ongoing dialogue with someone very willing to accomodate our needs and to offer up useful ideas and suggestions. It was a real pleasure to do business with them and we will recommend them at every opportunity
Description of Work: Provided extensive earthwork to reshape hillside to accomodate a 30x40 garage on the property

They showed up. I had 3 or 4 others that said they were coming to do the job and they never showed up. This one showed up and did the job. I would use them again.
