"Luigi was a pleasure. His prices were not the highest, not the lowest, but when I met him for an estimate, he struck me as the most dependable, reasonable contractor to hire. That impression turned out to be true. In negotiating the price during the estimate, he kept a big picture point of view and didn't nickle and dime the smaller components of the job. For example, after agreeing on a price, as we walked to my porch to sign the contract, he noticed the bricks on my front steps could use some pointing and said he'd take of that at no additional charge. When the city decided to chop up the sidewalk to replace a gas line the day after we signed our contract, Luigi was very accommodating and split the job into thirds (something in my experience contractors don't like to do) to work around them. Luigi was on site during each day of work supervising his crew of two to three guys. He repaired and extended an existing retaining wall and coated the cement work with stucco to match the original wall. He replaced the front section of my driveway, and when the city ended up replacing the driveway apron which they demolished during the gas line replacement, but, which was also part of my contract with Luigi, Luigi actually refunded me a portion of the agreed-upon price. Luigi is honest, professional, and seems to me to know his trade. I'm very happy with his work and would highly recommend him."

"I hired this company to repoint the stone on the front of my home. The guys were professional, and customer service was excellent. No mess was left behind. I would definitely hire again."

"Prior to these guys saving our property, we foolishly hired an under-qualified contractor to install a large patio and retaining wall system. It turned out to be a never ending nightmare from the start that left us with pooling water everywhere, mud leaking thru walls and stairs that were falling apart. We hired Classical Pavers to hopefully resolve all our issues, and boy did they deliver. These guys are true landscape engineers! They uprooted the previously installed pavers, flawlessly re-pitched and graded the base, planned for all the possible drainige issues that might come up, and completely cleaned the pavers and property of any remnants of their work. I could not be happier with the professionalism of every level of their services. I would absolutely recommend them, and only use them for any and all future projects."

"Competitive quote, prompt and excellent repair on front stoop. Highly recommend for brick, paver repair or installation."

"I was looking for a contractor to lay a masonry backsplash in my kitchen. Smart General Contracting came up locally. After contacting them and telling them the measurements and the designs I wanted they told me how long it was going to take for them to make them. When they arrived with the stones they looked gorgeous and the stonework was well done! And they fit perfectly, everything went so smoothly."

"We hired JB to put in a short driveway and repair some broken concrete in front of our garage. It was a joint project with the next door neighbors, who also needed their bluestone sidewalk replaced with concrete in order to make a workable driveway. I asked if I could have the salvaged bluestone. JB took care of the city permits, and the workers were there at 8 AM, prying up bluestone and piling it neatly in my back yard. The driveway looks great."

"Professional assessment on needs to repair a badly damaged sea wall. Work was done in a very timely manner, high quality and efficiently. It was a pleasure working with them. We were kept fully aware of what was being done and when. A pleasure to work with a company that you trust."

"They were on time, which is so appreciated, they removed the bricks from the sink hole and showed me why the area sunk from the original construction years ago. Rerouted what needed to be rerouted, reset all the pavers properly, and cleaned up the entire area as if nothing was touched. I would not hesitate to use them again for any paving needs. They came every day and did the work quickly in blistering heat and humidity. I am very happy with the results."

"Straight forward guy, detailed brick work. Crew is friendly. Would hire again."
