"The contractors were courteous and thorough. They purchased the materials and repaired the concrete and the wooden garage door frame. They also repaired my garage door which was not in our agreement. I would like to pay them for repairing it. I would recommend this company and would like to hire them in the future. Thank you for the recommendation."

"If you need junk removal, these are the guys. We just finished unloading 95% junk from a hoarder house and can't say enough good things about the quality and professionalism of Pablo, team leader. Solid guy and hardest working. Ask for Pablo. Or Michael, who was always fun and so upbeat- non stop hauler. The billing and scheduling was easy too. Top notch company. Totally worth it. You get to order only what you need done. They do everything. It was a MAJOR job that took six full days."

"We had a blockage in our main sewer pipe under the basement floor. It turns out we had an old flood control gate that had collapsed. It was about 80% closed, so water was not able to get out of the house appropriately. I called several companies and not only was Robert's price reasonable, he was the most knowledgable and willing to talk through the issue and the solution. Robert, Phillip, and his crew were able to break up the concrete floor and replace the pipe despite the fact that it was encased in several feet of concrete and was located right near our fireplace. It was a bigger job than we anticipated due to the original pipe being encased in much more concrete than is typically used, but they were able to take care of everything without destroying the walls or fireplace. The new pipe was put in, and the hole was patched with cement. I can't say enough good things about the planning and work that Robert and his crew did. They were skilled and professional and a pleasure to do business with. Despite the large hole in the floor, the clean up was impressive. Half way through the process when we saw just how big and difficult the job was, I felt confident that we chose the right company. This problem could have been a lot worse, and I am glad we trusted Lincoln Sewer and Drainage to take care of it. They also noticed that our catch basin needed minor cement repair, and took care of that while they were here. I highly recommend Lincoln Sewer and Drainage, and I won't hesitate to use them again in the future."

"This is a very nice, honest businessman. I called for a quote which was promptly responded to. George carefully looked everything over and advised me though he would love the business he really didn't think a recapping of our concrete steps was necessary and it wouldn't really last all that long. He said the pits and abrasions on the landing could be repaired but they would'nt look much better, they weren't bad so he recommended that I leave well enough alone. He clearly knows his craft and wasn't out to make a quick buck. Good man who I will call if necessary in the future!"

"We removed the wood paneling in the basement shortly after moving in.  That's when we noticed 13 cracks in the foundation.  None of them structural issues.  They came in and repaired all of them in one day.  A couple of them were difficult to get to due to stairs and piping, but they did a great job on all of them.

"Pryor Construction was previously owned by a neighbor of ours, and following a competitive bidding process in 2006, we contracted with them for nearly $300,000 of work on a major kitchen and bath renovation for the back portion of our 100 year old home. In general, their work was excellent, and together with the oversight of our architect, the addition integrated nicely with the original century old woodwork. Although like any major project there were points of disagreement as to the results of his work, we were ultimately able to reach reasonable accommodations for remediations. That is until a few years ago when we noticed cracks in the bottom concrete step off of our back porch, which they constructed. While this is the newest concrete installation it was unlike anything we experienced with any of the other concrete installed at this house which we have owned for over twenty-five years. We patched it and hoped that would be the end of it. One year later the crack extended across the entire step, both horizontally and vertically. Upon further inspection we realized that the poured concrete step contained clay bricks evidently as a filler, and it is said that their inclusion resulted in the premature failure. We notified Pryor Construction of apparent substandard construction practice, but never heard back from them. Two years later, and the deterioration of the step continued such that we had to undertake a more comprehensive remediation. In the course of demolishing the existing concrete work, we came to realize that the steps did not contain a random brick or two, but clay bricks were an integral part of the concrete work. Full sized bricks were present throughout the concrete, not broken up to even imitate an aggregate, but complete bricks were used in lieu of concrete, which I believe is more expensive than brick. When we presented Pryor Construction with an invoice for the cost of the remediation efforts including over 1,500 pounds of concrete, and related costs of labor and materials for demolition and reconstruction, the prior owner Pete Pryor,denied that his work was substandard and refused to pay our costs. Note that no bricks were part of this extensive renovation, so they had to have been brought in specifically as a filler for the concrete step. It seems that Pete Pryor sold the business several years ago, and is evidently no longer affiliated with the company. The current management of Pryor Construction simply refused to respond to my communications. It may be practical and financially advantageous to obfuscate responsibility for such items as a: an unevenly laid plank floor; or a prematurely rotting section of a porch, in order to negotiate a cost of full remediation. The hiding/substituting of brick for concrete, is simply a fact that is irrefutable. Based upon the opinion of disinterested experts, this is a substandard construction practice, which led to the the premature failure of the concrete step. The fact that Pryor Construction then failed to immediately take responsibility for at best an obvious breakdown in their internal quality control procedures, while continuing to hold himself out as the “ Renovator of choice” who “PROVIDE QUALITY WORKMANSHIP”, is really alarming and and in my opinion is a false claim. Although our architect provided construction management oversight, even the best can miss things in areas where construction practices are presumed to be standard and straightforward. Given the length of time since the work was done and for the deterioration of the steps to become noticeable, I doubt if it is covered by any form warranty, so I can not pursue any additional steps for compensation. My suggestion is that existing and potential clients of Pryor Construction question current management as to what might have happened in this case, so they are well informed of the risks they are undertaking, and the level of oversight which may be required."
