"Very well. Due to weather conditions, there were a few setbacks, but the final project - I am more than pleased. It is so much nicer than I had pictured. They really know what they are doing, and Mitch is on the site every day to supervise to make sure it is getting done correctly. I could not be happier with Mitch Cousino's - I will use them again and recommend them to friends and family."

"Jim is the designer who walked the property, made recommendations and provided the estimates. We asked for the work to be quoted as two estimates. We had to do the back yard re-grading and seeding, but theoretically could have cleaned up the landscaping ourselves. In the end we hired them for both projects because the estimates were so reasonable. Jim was punctual, professional, very knowledgeable. His quote on the re-grading/seeding was similar in price but very different in amount of fill dirt that had been quoted by Scot's last Fall. I called him about it and his explanation made a lot of sense: he thought we could use a lot of the existing soil and softly slope the lawn away from the house. The yahoo we hired last year had butchered it so badly, and had created a hard edge. <br />It took longer to actually get on their calendar than we had hoped, but we foolishly tried to wait to get quotes from other landscapers. We were burned so badly last summer that we were trying to be overly cautious. <br />When we did not get call backs from 3 other companies (even Scot's who had originally provided an estimate last Fall) we booked the work with Thomson's. Believe it or not, Scot's failed to respond to three separate calls AND a visit to their store by my husband. <br />The projects were completed over two days and Jim was here at the beginning of each day to make sure the crew knew what was to be done. We had 4 different crew members <br />There were a few things about completed work I was not quite comfortable with. Jim returned my call promptly and came out to do a walk through with me two days later. It was nothing major, but he agreed and said he would put in a work order for a return visit with no additional charge to us. <br />We highly recommend Thomson's and will use them again. <br /> <br /> <br />"

"I first met the Jeff Ours, owner of JLS Contracting in the summer of 2014. He and his crew installed a new metal roof on my house and garage that year. Which I am still very happy with. He and his crew were always on time, worked diligently from the time they got here to the time they left for the day, took a minimal amount of time for their lunch, always policed up the area at the end of each day, were always professional, polite, and considerate. As a matter of fact, I was so impressed with them and the quality of their workmanship, that I invited them back again this year for a series of projects. Again, Jeff and his crew proved to be one of the best in the business, and all of the above still held true. Jeff is a very professional, down to earth person. He listens attentively to my concerns and future project goals, tactfully provides his professional opinion and offered some great advice and suggestions. Any questions I had about anything before, during or even after the project was complete, he has always been very prompt to address them. His rates are competitive, reasonable and the high quality of workmanship is unsurpassed. This latest project included installation of new siding for my house and garage, installation of 11 new vinyl replacement windows, replacement of 3 storm doors, one entry door, demo of one concrete porch and one wood deck and stairs, creation of new front porch, porch roof, and railings, installation of new garage overhead and single-entry doors; house gutter redirects and some replacements. removal and replacement of badly deteriorating sidewalks and steps. The cost of this series of projects was worth every penny. The outside of my house has been truly transformed. If you want true quality work done by people you can trust, these are the people to contract with."

"The company did an outstanding job. The crew of three arrived promptly as promised and got to work immediately. I was impressed that all three crew members (including the owner) worked nonstop during the day. Work was performed exactly as I was described and my property was left looking amazing. Further, the cleanup done after work was performed was top-notch, especially given the amount of work that was done. I was very, very pleased with the work that was done and would definitely use this company again. <br />"

"Randy Weldishofer is fantastic to work with!  The marble pavers that he uses are a wonderful product.  The pavers are an actual stone of travertine or marble instead of a concrete product. Randy is very punctual, very nice, and very skilled.  I am very happy with the look and durability of the pavers and I really appreciate  the effort that Randy put into my job.  These pavers make the look of my house much better than any of my neighbors! <br />"

FAQs for brick and stone patios, walks, and steps installation projects in Athens, OH

When cleaning your flagstone patio, begin by gently hosing off loose dirt and debris. Use a mild solution of white vinegar and water or diluted dish soap to scrub the surface with a soft-bristled brush. Avoid using abrasive tools, such as wire brushes, as they can damage the stone’s seal and finish. This careful approach effectively removes mold and grime while preserving the natural beauty of your patio.

Flagstone naturally offers a neutral palette that includes shades of grey, black, red, yellow, brown, and tan, and its inherent color cannot be altered. Choosing varieties like bluestone provides a subtle bluish tint that complements many exterior designs. These natural hues enhance curb appeal and create a refined, timeless look in your outdoor space, ensuring a sophisticated finish with minimal upkeep.

Flagstone for a patio must have a minimum thickness of 1.5 inches to reliably support furniture and foot traffic. Using stone that is two to three inches thick is recommended to ensure lasting durability. The increased thickness prevents cracking under load and enhances long-term performance. Investing in thicker flagstone provides superior stability and resistance to weather conditions, ensuring your outdoor space remains both safe and attractive.

You can paint a flagstone patio by using a high-quality, outdoor elastomeric latex paint designed for heavy foot traffic. Painting not only refreshes the patio’s appearance but also creates a waterproof barrier that protects the stone from damage. Regular reapplication every one to two years maintains its durability and visual appeal, ensuring your patio remains both stylish and well-protected.
