Get matched with top brick, stone or block wall installers in Mount-victoria, MD

"While the work went well initially, the end of the job (when foreman was not present) did not go well and wall had to be fixed twice - because the first repair was sloppy and created additional damage. Work was completed a little over 3 years ago and wall is again cracking. If using this provider I recommend the homeowner be present for duration of job to ensure proper attention to detail and understand if there is an problem your correspondence may not promptly be addressed."

"Horizon was hired to repoint my stone front patio and retaining wall. They were prompt and professional and did a fantastic job. William showed up every morning at 7:30 AM and worked until 6:00 PM every night. They also provided the best price of my three estimates. Very happy with Lazaro (owner) and Horizon. Will definitely us them again."

"It went okay, their prices were high. He just pretty much just did measurements and did the estimate, he didn't offer any suggestions or alternative method or anything. He gave me a quote that day, like when he was here."

"This company did an excellent job of removing the old stone brick wall in our family room and installing a beautiful veneer stone on the first job and on the second job we hired 7th State for the remodeling my dining room. They were efficient, fast, and professional. They are pricey, but you get what you pay for and the customer service is impeccable!!! Eddie Cox has been our rep for all our projects and now we are working on our third project with him and 7th State. Awesome Company!!!"

"Fernando evaluated a stone facade on my Colonial Beach, VA townhouse that had come loose due to poor builder construction. He matched the stone perfectly and repaired the original work to like new condition. He was responsive, timely, cost-competitive, and most importantly did grade A work. Would definitely hire for any future projects!"

"Install team was great. Started early each day and cleaned up prior to leaving each day."

"John handled our aluminum fence install without delay. He walked the line with us first, made sure the layout matched what we wanted, and started right away. The panels went in clean, no gaps or uneven spots. He stayed on task and worked through until it was done. No talking in circles, no delays. The fence looks tight and secure. Glad we picked this crew."

"VRN Masonry did a wonderful job. They were very responsive to our preferences on stones for the steps. Very timely, professional and a fair price."

In the fall of 2014 we set out to hire a general contractor to perform a complete gut and remodel of our cooperative apartment kitchen.  The space was original to this 1966 structure and was in dire need of some TLC.  We had been planning for well over a year before we even started looking for a contractor, so we had a very good idea on the design and didn't need any help in that arena.

We opted to go with Green Studio Builders (GSB) for a couple of reasons.  The first is that we saw their work first hand in another apartment within our building and we were very impressed with the craftsmanship especially considering the complexities of that project.  Our project was similarly complex and it was reassuring to know that they had experience to tackle more than the run of the mill project. It's also nice to work with a contractor that already knows the building, the management staff, the rules and regulations, etc. The second reason was the result of our interaction with the owner of the company during his onsite visit to our apartment during the assessment phase.  One could describe Chris as passionate.  During the walkthrough he was a terrific listener and clearly was able to grasp the intensity of the project.

The project consisted of gutting a 20' x 12' kitchen right down to the studs and concrete sub floor, removing walls between the kitchen and living room, walls between the kitchen and dining room as well as a wall between the living room and dining room.  We were going for an open concept and amidst that there was re-routing of trunk phone lines for apartments above and below us as well as a thermostat relocation.

Work began in February and completed 4 months later in June.  We were assigned an operations manager and supervisor to the project.  Between them they were to coordinate all of the onsite activities.   Despite the assigned leadership, I assure you that I was keeping a strict eye on the project at all times.  We were not about to part with this kind of money with no personal oversite regardless of GSB?s reputation.  While the project was a huge success, I assure you that there were several conversations throughout the project to have minor elements corrected or to re-educate the crew members on the expectations of the project elements.  This type of open communication was vital and GSB?s entire crew was excellent at following through on my every concern without ever making us feel like we were overbearing.

The demolition was completed in two phases; the first was an early prep to remove the old cabinetry and appliances to prepare the space for the asbestos abatement company (with whom we were expected to contract independently with).  Once the asbestos abatement was complete, GSB returned immediately to resume with phase two of the demolition where they removed the walls.  During this process our apartment was thoroughly draped to try and contain the dust and protection was laid on our hard wood floors to protect them from damage.  The debris was removed from the apartment in a timely manner.  With demolition complete, the new walls were framed and GSB coordinated for the electrical and plumbing sub-contractors to complete the necessary work.  The walls were then drywalled, mudded, sanded and primed.  GSB then installed the floor tile absolutely perfectly.  They followed through on my pattern flawlessly and the installer took great care to insure a proper installation.  We opted for long and narrow tiles and if the thinset underneath is not perfect it can cause future cracking , the installer took his time to ensure our complete satisfaction.  GSB did a great job of coordinating the timeliness of the subcontractor for cabinet delivery and installation.

One of our longest delays followed cabinet installation.  We opted to go through GSB and their subcontractor for countertop installation and had already selected out stone, but there were several breakdowns in communication which resulted in a couple week delay.  While this was a sore subject for a few days, I assure you that GSB took complete ownership of the issue and made the situation right in a way that was agreeable to both us and them.  We never expected the project to be easy, but when snags do occur you need an organization that will own up to their promises and GSB did exactly that.

Backsplash tile installation followed the countertop install.  Good news is that GSB sent the same crew back and like the floor work, the tile was installed exactly to specifications.  Once this was complete, GSB coordinated the final electrical and plumbing work as well as painting.  The operations manager came onsite for a physical assessment and the creation of a punch list of final to do?s and those tasks were completed expeditiously.

We have enjoyed out new kitchen now for just shy of two months and every day we are appreciative of the fine work that was done to bring us to this point.  We recommend GSB and their crew.

"East Coast Landscape Design did an amazing job when part of my retaining wall fell after a storm! They came right out to assess the damage and they were able to have their crew out there the following week. The communication with the company was exceptional too and the wall looks beautiful and it is safe!"
