"We hired Advanced to rip up our old driveway, and put in an expanded asphalt driveway. We also needed a new walkway as the old red bricks were uneven and posed a tripping hazard. James worked with me to ensure the shape of the expanded driveway was exactly what we wanted. The team worked very fast and James was on site throughout the project. Further working with us, they ensured the walkway end was flush with the driveway (avoiding another previous tripping hazard), and worked with me to lay pipe underneath the new walkway so I could extend our in-ground sprinklers and have the option to add electrical. The team put string through and planted flags in the ground marking the ends of the pipes. They even redid the pavers of our front stoop including cutting out and regrouting. Everything looked so great that we hired James 9 months later to come back and install two quarter-circle sitting walls at the ends of our driveway. They even relocated the plants for us. We're the new it house!"

"Excellent job , very good price I am very happy with my new driveway. Thank you"

"Steve Hernandez, the crew leader, showed us detailed photos of the problems with our heating system flue and chimney. The former was in such bad condition he rescheduled work so he could get the job down that day! A few days later he and his crew came back to remove the badly worn chimney bricks and concrete crown and completely rebuild them. He had ordered and installed that day a custom cap. The crew was efficient and polite both days. Steve really helped me understand our own particular heating system and what to do going forward to keep it safe and efficient. Truly, kudos to Steve."

"Short version: Though the guys were respectful and the fireplace was cleaned, there was lousy, mismatched communication on the company s end that was frustrating and left me feeling like this transaction had an element of bait and switch. Long version: Called and advised I wanted the fire place inspected, cleaned, and the damper looked at. The lady asked if it was wood burning, I said yes. I asked whether someone would be going on the roof to inspect the chimney and I was told yes. When the guys showed up, one of the reps started talking about cleaning my heating flue and needed to go to the basement. I told him I made an appt to have my fireplace inspected and cleaned. He repeated he was told he was there for the heating flue. I told him I didn t know what he was talking about and I called. The same lady said, oh, that s an option for an addtl fee. it s important to have that cleaned esp with oil heat. I told her I didn t have oil heat and asked her why the guys don t know about cleaning the fireplace and are focused on my heating flue vent. She just said you can just have your fireplace cleaned then. I consulted my brother to see if we should have the heating flue cleaned and he said for the price, why not. Next thing we re talking about $1300 liners, which they left an estimate for. I asked one of the reps if he was going on the roof as part of the inspection, and he said no, it looks good from here, you have caps on the chimney and the bricks look fine. I didn t want to argue about what the lady had told me. I went to pay and discovered they charged a fee for credit cards which the lady did not disclose. Though it wasn t a big fee, I could have gotten the cash. The experience just left a bad taste to what otherwise could have been a quick cleaning and better review."

"Torres Contracting did an outstanding job repairing my old front and side stoops that had significant water damage. On time and at an extremely fair price. His masons then built two matching brick/bull nose flower beds in front of house. Beautifully done and I received many compliments from the neighbors!"

"We called Dunrite initially for a cleaning (both oil and wood chimney), which was done very well; during the cleaning we were informed that the liner for the oil chimney needed to be replaced. Additionally, our outside bricks on the chimney were in need of TLC (repointing etc.) We got bids from Dunrite and 2 other vendors, and decided to go with Dunrite (one of the other bids was $1000 more!) It was also nice to be able to pay with a credit card. The guys worked hard and fast in blistering heat without complaining. The office people were terrific too. We were very happy with the work and the price."

"Great job! Very friendly and on time! I would use them again."
