Get matched with top interlocking pavers for driveways & floors installers in Nerstrand, MN

"Chris came out initially to take a look at the back yard and to discuss the project. I had asked him to put together a design based on some initial ideas and requirements of our own. He was very friendly and knowledgeable about installing patios. We discussed some issues with needing to improve water run off from the back of the house. We were in contact numerous times before start day to refine the design and choose pavers and lighting. Chris was always very responsive to my emails and calls and always pleasant to talk with. On start day, he showed up with his crew and a slew of machinery to excavate and prepare the base for the patio. He worked with me to mark off the perimeter and shape of the patio. When the size of the patio ended up bigger than what I had initially sent as measurements (my error), he didn’t complain- he just said he would order the additional pavers and we’d adjust the final invoice. I had asked him to try and not rip up the surrounding lawn too much and so they laid plywood and made sure that the skidsteers and other trucks stayed on that one small area. This was a real sign of their professionalism to me. I was amazed how the patio took shape in just 1 week. The crew worked through blistering heat and never complained. At the end of week 1, the patio was installed minus the final 4 cap lights since we had to wait for the lights to arrive. I make a partial payment to Chris for the work completed and then 1 week later, he came out and finished the lighting and worked through the electrical hook-ups to the house with our electrician on that day. We used pavers from a vendor who Chris uses and I was pleased with the look of what we chose. The pavers were installed well and Chris used polymeric sand to hold them in place. The job site was cleaned up every night and they moved excavated soil and aggregate base and we never had a “mess” at the house. Part of the project involved them ripping out a concrete landing outside of our adjacent garage access door and I never saw the broken concrete because they just hauled it away. Overall the patio looks incredible and I wouldn’t have asked for a better experience with an installer than what we got with Chris and his crew. I felt that the pricing of the project was very fair and that Chris and his guys were dedicated to finishing the patio as quickly as possible."

"This is our second year. We have had different lawn services, our neighbor recommended them. Each treatment is $71 and I think there is a total of 5 treatments."

"They did an excellent job and had a great crew that preformed the work, we did have to wait about a month longer than we had thought but it was well worth it."

"I bid approximately 10 different people across three categories: landscapers, contractors and masons. The landscapers were stumped given it was structural and it was graduated (grew from small to tall). The contractors were very matter of fact as were most of the masons; demo it and build it with this one brick style that they were accustomed to using. Scott came out and was very self-assured as to how he was going to tackle the project and he explained how he was going to do it and why. Prior to this however, on the phone, he sent us to his website to check out all the retaining walls he had previously done, both structural and more for esthetic purposes (my words) I will say. After he explained his approach, he then got out his brick catalog and gave us a couple of options then he would recommend. Then, he saw that we had a large tree nearby and recommended that perhaps we might want to go with a smooth vs. textured stone so that all the sap and other tree droppings wouldn't cling to the brick. This is the type of attention to detail that Scott brings to the project. He was right on budget, his team was very pleasant and very nice, and they were very clean when they were done. I would use them again in a minute. I am not sure that there isn't anything with stone that Scott hasn't done. <br />"

"The end result was very satisfying. The process was good, their people courteous, the clean up good. Now the skiploader distroyed the lawn they traversed and cut some cable TV cable lines. This was partly due to a storm that mucked everything up. They fixed it to everyone's satisfaction. They knew this would happen so they charged me about $400 upfront for the sod repair - which did nothing to improve the patio. The overall length was about 1 week to completion. Some of the requests I had in the specification had everyone else baffled on how to do it. For instance the raised planters at various contractors were built of brick at a considerable cost and lost patio space. The 4x4s they installed were a stroke of genius and were designed so concrete forms would not distroy the pavers over time. I am building the rest from the previous pan and decking. Now all of the pavers are visible including the "soldier course". The same applies to a small "retaining wall" - just 4 layers of stone 8x10 or thereabouts created a nice sitting place to boot. Other quotes seemed excessive in footprint requirements (and cost.) The "bumper guards" were a nice touch also The only questionable part was the "class 5" usage (I picked up a lot of jargon during this.) It went way over the 1 foot from the edge of the patio. I was watching them most of the time and noted to them that the cut off corner needed no preparation (class 5 and sand.) It was not all removed. By the way the requirement for 1 foot of prepared base from the edge of the patio was not noted to me before the construction. This might have changed the design."

"They knew what they were doing and are very knowledgeable. They knew the type of sand I needed and I had no problems. They delivered right on the spot and did not make a mess. They called ahead to make sure we would be here. Everything was good and we have used them several times."

"Was very pleased with the overall result of New Again. I submitted dimensions and pictures over the website and received a very competitive quote. After stripping the deck there were a few more boards where some rotting was identified and Barak and his team replaced them promptly. Stain looks great and made an immediate difference. I had been contemplating if my 20 year old deck was too far gone and needed replacing... but after seeing what Barak could do with stripping the old paint off, replacing some bad boards, and staining... I'm very glad I chose to do this rather than replacement."

"We have 2 egress windows.  The second was only slightly affected and so was less urgent.  Drew came out within about a week and looked at both windows.  He gave us a range of options in price as well as in the magnitude and aesthetics of the work to be done.  He was very open about the effectiveness of the options.  Based on his recommendations we chose a lower cost option to reinforce the worst egress window well with carbon fiber and leave the second egress window alone for now.  the work was done promptly (within 10 days of the agreement) and with good quality.  We felt we had all the facts to make a good decision and are happy with the results. <br />"

"Everything went very well.  I had spent all summer trying to contact landscapers and waiting for replies that never came and finally, and fortunately, found Mickman Brothers.  I dealt with Paul, who kept me updated on everything, even if he was going to be a few minutes late for an appointment.  Our initial consultation was low key and he understood exactly what I was looking for and, importantly, what I was not looking for on this project at this time.  I made one tree-choice change.  The work was done, with just a 2-day delay, in a half day.  The crew was very hard-working and courteous, and they did a great job cleaning up. <br /> I have already told Paul I'll be contacting him in the spring of 2015 for Phase 2 of our project. <br />"

"My next door neighbors hired Dakota Unlimited to replace their chain link fence (including along the property line between our properties). This was something that had been on my own todo list for a couple of years now so I took the prompt and contacted Dakota Unlimted to expand the project to include the parts go the fence they were going to originally leave and the fence along the other side of my property (along an alley). They immediately got someone out to me to give a quote and not only did they go great work, but slotted me into the same spot as my neighbors so all the work was done at once. They definitely cost a bit more than I was originally planning, but you can tell where the additional money went when you look at the fence quality."
