"<p>Great price, and professional work.  </p> <p>They ran into a few snags along the way but they worked very professionally with me to choose the best path/plan for dealing with them and offered me good choices and recommendations (I felt).  I also added scope along the way which Mitch worked with very well.  (as I know it disrupted their overall schedule and planning)  On top of having a good price, and doing good work, these guys were also the least destructive option as there was no way to get this work done without going over neighbor lawns.  They can do a lot of this heavy lifting by hand without large machinery (which is RARE).  The important thing is that I know it was still done correctly and Mitch took the time to walk me through the steps so I knew what was important and why.  (building my confidence in him and his team before they even put down the first retaining wall block.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>Very timely as promised and finished on time as well.  </p> <p>No question for me that I would recommend him and use him again.  My walls look and work fantastic.  My neighbors all wanted to know "where I had it done".  </p> <br />"

"Paul and his crew did an excellent job. They were very professional and took great care every step of the way. I was very pleased and would highly recommend them!"

"We thought we needed foundation work. They not only told us that was incorrect. They directed us to a structural engineer who would be able to help us. No charge. Most appreciated."

"It went horrible at first. The crews that worked on my siding and my concrete parking pad screwed things up so bad, the whole concrete pad (30'X33') had to be repoured, as well as the siding that was done. This job, which was told to me by their representative, should have taken 2-3 weeks. It has now gone over 3 months. But luckily, the estimator I was working with came through. He had new crews come out to fix the initial mistakes. Not in the most timely manner, but it still got done. All that being said, I could not recommend this company."

"Great! Jake and Jason were prompt and courteous and did a great job cleaning the fireplaces (one of which was horribly dirty). They put drop cloths down and wore little booties in the house, which we wouldn't expect but did appreciate since we have a big white rug near the fireplace. They were able to identify several issues that were happening and needed maintenance, including a completely broken masonry wall. We hired them on the spot to come back and do all yearly maintenance and fix all the necessarily repairs."

"Mr. Montgomery crawled through the crawl space, walk our house, He sent us our inspection report within 7 days. I would trust this Engineer he's knowledgeable, he's evaluated many structures and easy to get a long with."

"Wallace construction came to my door after seeing shingles missing on my roof. Unlike the fly by night contractors that typically do this approach, Denise was very friendly, had a logo shirt and truck and was very professional. They helped us with our insurance adjuster to pay for a good portion of the new roof when I didn't even realize it was a possibility. They offered great communication which to me is key. Everything was accomplished in a timely and professional manner. Our new roof looks great and definitely improved our curb appeal. Will use for future projects, and I even have a few in mind."

"Larry and his two associates arrived on time and Larry covered the entry from my garage to the basement to protect the entry floor.  Larry had a checklist he covered with me and the team immediately started the crawlspace work, bringing their materials and ladder to the basement.  The existing fiberglass insulation was removed from the crawlspace as well as other debri.  The insulation was placed in large bags before removing from the house.  Insulation was then added to rim joists and around the crawlspace walls.  At that point the gravel was smoothed on the crawlspace floor and the liner was rolled out.  The liner was sealed to the walls. This work took about six hours.  After the Basement Guys team had left I did notice that one area of the liner / crawlspace wall had not been sealed well.  We called the Basement Guys and they returned within a week to finish by sealing this area. <br />"

"There were positives and negatives in my experience with Slink's Masonry. <br /> Scheduling was a problem. When I first contacted Gary in May of last year, he was very up front that he was currently busy, but thought that he could look at the project in about six weeks or so. I was willing to wait, but after that, it was one slip after another, first just getting an estimate and then starting the work. The project was not underway until the beginning of October. The project was estimated at six weeks but ran closer to eight including some worked weekends, finishing up in late November on the cusp of bad weather. <br /> The other issue was project planning. Regardless of who's doing the work, I would simply not do another project like this without a more thorough project plan in the contract, including fairly detailed sketches with measurements. There was no contract beyond signing the estimate, which had a more general description of the work. This impacted most on the front steps, where both the riser height (8") and width (31") of the steps from the driveway to the landing don't match the riser heights (5 1/2") and widths (36") of the steps from the landing to the front porch. I don't know why the riser heights were done differently - they were all the same in the wood steps he was replacing, but after the molds were built (still prior to pouring the concrete), Gary gave me heavy resistance to changing it. The widths are off because he didn't take into account the depth of the stone veneer on the retaining walls to either side of the lower steps which extends into the step. Project planning was also an issue where the stone interfaced with other materials. The vinyl siding I had put in didn't terminate the way Gary wanted it - and while Gary will say the siding installer should have known better (quite possibly true), coordination would have been easier on my end if this was specifically spelled out in the contract. This was fixed by the siding installer at my expense. The Garage doors were replaced prior to Gary's work with new trim/weatherstripping installed, because he was going to stone up right up to the trim. When the wood beneath the trim had to be removed, the trim was destroyed and had to replaced, again at my expense. There was a tree blocking his access to the chimney which was taken down, which should also have been in the contract. He was unwilling to remove the stump. The height of the patio was higher than we discussed, so I had to have 10 cubic yards of dirt brought in to bring the level of the backyard up to meet it. Starting this Spring, the driveway (asphalt) has buckled all along the length of the retaining wall, because the driveway was hollowed out underneath when they dug the footer. I will have to have this tended to before this Winter. I think at least some of these issues/expenses could have been mitigated with better planning and a more detailed contract. <br /> Despite all of that, there were positives too. Gary is very meticulous and conscientious working with the stone itself. I'm very happy with the fit of the cultured stone install on the house and the flagstone on the back patio - it looks beautiful. I believe that what he has built is very solid construction that should hold up over the long haul. When he was building the retaining wall, the level was out on each block as he tapped it level. There's rebar in the concrete of both the back patio and front porch anchored into the house. He discovered into the project that there was not adequate support in the existing wood framed chimney to hold the weight of the stone, which I appreciate him bringing to my attention so it could be addressed. Gary will take input and is generally easy to work with, so long as you discuss things in advance before he's into the task. Just initiate communication early and often to make sure you're on the same page. <br />"
