"I?m sad to write this review as Hero started off as a wonderful landscape partner to us with excellent communication and integrity. Unfortunately this past year we paid for a season pass of bi-weekly lawn mowing services plus an additional spring clean up service. We tried to work things out with Hero but ultimately we received fewer than half the lawn visits, no spring clean up and the visits we received were sporatic and not on the promised timeline. Hero agreed to come by with the refund for part of the services he did not provide but has since ghosted us despite consistent attempts to reach out by phone, text, Zelle and in-person. We lost $480 in services."

"Pavestone Rockwall pecan bricks were purchased by our contractor. Home Depot loaded the pallet on his truck and he brought it to our yard. While unloading we noticed a third of the pallet was pecan. The rest appeared as cinderblock. When returned to Home Depot they were very cooperative in refunding. Home Depot told us this is a common problem with this product from Pavestone. When Pavestone is contacted the say they will correct the problem, but nothing is ever done. My contractor has contracted Pavestone here in Denver and was told a representative would come to check out our issue. Never seen anyone from Pavestone. They are totally unresponsive to paying customers requests. Arrogant and rude to disregard customers. Find other product if you can! We now have a partially built retaining wall and my contractor is searching Denver to find a pallet tgat even has a few pecan colored bricks! Pathetic customer service"

Your one stop shop for all your fireplace needs: Gas Logs (contemporary and traditional), Glass Doors, Inserts, and Mantels. One of Arlington Heights’ oldest Family owned & operated businesses began selling patio furniture 70 years ago. Northwest Metalcraft has remained a leading retailer of wrought iron, teak, wicker & envirowood patio furniture; BBQ (Weber, Solaire, Broilmaster & More); fireplace equipment, Fire Pits and mailboxes (address plaques) and more. Additional DBA - Northwest Metalcraft Inc. Additional contact names - Daniel Mayer & Dawn Selleck.

"I bought a new patio table from NW Metalcrafters to replace an older one that was no longer usable. The salesperson Brian was very helpful with the sale, letting me take home color samples to match the new table's finish with my old chairs that I had planned to keep. Several days after the table was delivered, I noticed that one of the legs was bent at a welding joint. I sent photos to NW Metalcrafters and they agreed right away to get a new table from the manufacturer as part of the warranty. Andrew was helpful in arranging and scheduling pickup of the old table and the delivery of the new table."

"$27,000 of damage done by 3D Paving! 3D installed a paver patio with stairs at our house 11 years ago. They failed to use a waterproof membrane in between the paver stairs and the side of our house. Moisture has seeped in as a result causing our brick wall to crumble. We had 2 brick repair companies and a waterproofing company come out to diagnose the problem and they said it was because the company who installed the stairs didn't put in the membrane. The stairs and bricks need to be replaced and the membrane that was supposed to be used needs to be installed. 3D does not take responsibility for this. The patio is also coming up at the edges in some parts and sinking in other parts. I caution you to not use 3D. The work will look good for a few years but not in the long run and they will cause huge problems to your house because they don't install properly. They will not take responsibility for their mistakes and poor workmanship. "

S&K Plumbing Company was founded in 1994 by owner Jeff Killian. Starting off, Jeff was the only employee. Although the company has grown some, it is still a family owned and operated company that has been able to keep it's personal-attention roots. Originally only focusing on service work and minor sewer repairs, S&K Pluming now specializes in all applications of underground sewer and water installation, repair and replacement. This expansion has not changed their tradition in plumbing service and repair at all. From minor household plumbing repairs to major remodeling and new addition construction, S&K Plumbing has the ability and skills to do any work and solve any problem. Since the start, a focus on professional, high-quality work, with an emphasis on customer service and reliability, has helped S&K become a well known and reputable plumbing company in the Chicago suburbs. Having done work in all the surrounding villages and townships, the licensed plumbers of S&K Plumbing know state and local codes and requirements. When something breaks, we know how to fix it properly, even if it happens at 2AM. Our 24-hour answering service puts you one phone call away from a licensed plumber on call. When you call our number, you will talk to a person, not an answering machine or paging system. Only a licensed plumber takes the call for emergencies, so when disaster strikes, the person on the other end of the line will know what to do and be ready to help. ***If you have an urgent need addressed, please CALL our main number and speak with someone in our office to make sure we can address your urgent need immediately. Messages sent through email and the Angie's List message system may take a few hours to be returned.***

"Overall, I was not pleased with the work being done. My install did not go well at all. I went from failed pump with no flooding to new pump and flooding. S&K had to come back out and proceeded to cause a overspill 2x more times before correcting the issue. They also left me with the mess to clean up. This was sewage water by the way. They also did not reseal the pit cover. I had a another plumbing company come out and double check the work and seal the pit cover. I would not use them again."

FAQs for outdoor kitchen building service projects in Skokie, IL

Building your own pizza oven can be a cost-effective option if you already possess the necessary firebricks or materials and have the skills to complete the project. When you have the required supplies on hand, you save on material costs and labor fees. However, if you need to source every component, a pre-made kit may not deliver the same savings.

Fire bricks are engineered to withstand the high temperatures generated inside a pizza oven, protecting the structure from cracking or spalling. Standard bricks can fail under intense heat, potentially damaging the oven and creating safety risks. By using true fire-rated bricks, homeowners maintain consistent cooking temperatures, preserve the oven’s structural integrity, and reduce the likelihood of costly repairs. The modest increase in material cost is offset by longer service life and safer operation.

An optimal pizza oven installation positions the opening exactly between 36 and 48 inches above the ground to guarantee clear visibility and safe, comfortable access. This height optimizes heat distribution and ergonomic use. In addition, dome height can vary: shorter domes produce the signature soft, charred crust of Neapolitan pies, whereas taller domes are ideal for generating the robust baking environment required for New York–style pizzas.
