"I had them out to complete a brick paver patio that another contractor started incorrectly. Communication was great. Price was good. Final product looked great."

"GREAT group of guys! Jorge went above and beyond. The patio is AWESOME!!!! I highly recommend reaching out to them for your projects."

"After a lot of research, pricing and checking references, we chose Mario and F&M Masonry to rebuild our front landing and steps. We could not be happier with the result. Mario is extremely professional and really knows his stuff. He made sure we understood there were several ways to handle our issues and was clear why he was recommending to do it his way. Our front steps were literally peeling away from our landing. Additionally, the pavers that had been inappropriately used as surface material by a previous owner were constantly coming loose. The old landing had also been built partially covering two outlets, making them inaccessible. The big unknown was whether it was just the steps that were a problem or the entire landing. The result was many bids coming in ridiculously high as contractors assumed they'd have to rebuild the entire landing in addition to the steps. Mario, however, took the time to remove enough old material to see that the problem was just the steps. In rebuilding the step, F&M took the corrects steps of anchoring their newly poured steps to the landing using rebar and other appropriate materials. He made sure to explain each step of the process. As he put it, "your steps will be here long after we are all gone!" Another example of the attention to detail was that Manny himself was on site almost the entire time, and, he personally designed the pattern of the bluestone ahead of time on paper, then again with the bluestone to get our approval before they were cemented into place. While F&M was neither the least expensive nor the most expensive option, I was most concerned about the job being done correctly. While certainly not a bargain, relative to other bids and given the high level of attention to doing the job correctly, I found the price to be "good". My only very minor complaint is that some of the mortar between the bluestone "spilled" onto the stone and looks a bit sloppy in places. There was also cement splatter on our front door (I've since repainted the door). I called and he is supposed to be sending someone out to try and clean up the mortar on the landing. It's minor but is the one negative to an otherwise perfect job. Overall, I would highly recommend Manny and F&M for your hardscape work. The end result is a gorgeous front landing and steps which we've been getting many compliments on. Our needing to repair our stairs was the result of a previous owner going for the cheapest option, but not the correct one, in building the steps. With F&M Masonry, your job will be done correctly and on time. We could really tell how much Manny cares about his work and you will appreciate having someone who gives such personal attention. It was a pleasure to work with Manny."

"Mike and his crew were absolutely professional in constructing our deck.. He took the design I had seen on a website that was a great fit for our space and adapted it perfectly!  We actually ended up with a larger (or so it seemed) deck than we were expecting.  The workmanship was top quality as evidenced by my extremely picky carpenter son who saw Mike's work and  had no negative comments at all.  The cedar is of top grade and all the surrounding landscape was left intact and clean when they finished.  We can highly recommend choosing Mike Rosian for your deck project. <br>"

"Great customer service from beginning to end. Scott went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. Installer and repair techs were punctual and helpful. We love the fireplace and would highly recommend them."

"We had a 750 sq foot elevated deck built by Joel and the building team led by Matt. Joel was fantastic to work with from his first visit, design proposal and quote. The building team led by Matt did extremely high quality work and were great to design with as the project progressed. They were very neat and hard working. We were delighted with the overall experience, result and value for money. We would definitely work with them again and highly recommend them."

"The entire process was conducted in a friendly and professional manner from our first visit with Sara at the design center through final inspection. The design center has plenty of life size material samples which gave us a real feel of what to expect. We liked the way we were asked about our expectations and to set a budget, as well as a wish list. They designed to the budget, which impressed us, along with a wish list. When we reviewed the plans with Sara, she nailed it, the plan was within budget and we were so impressed we decided to incorporate a few of the additional wish list details. The estimated start date was bested by a few weeks which was a welcomed surprise and the crew were prompt, friendly and professional in their approach. Archadeck provided daily e-mails with updates and we always felt as though we were being well taken care of. The quality of product and workmanship are impressive as we have had many compliments by anyone that has experienced it. The deck is elevated leading down to the patio, and I joke with people that if the house blew away the deck would still be standing. Solid build. The patio pavers have a tumbled look and make it appear as though it has been there for years, in a very comfortable and pleasing way. No surprises, quality product with prompt and professional workmanship made this project a pleasant experience. And one last thing, it was right on budget."

"I have the greatest regard for Sergio and the entire team at Pavestone! The result is fantastic - a beautiful, well proportioned and designed patio, with a high-quality installation accomplished on time and on budget. For projects like this, though, the result is first, but the experience is just as critical. Each step of the way, the Pavestone team provided value and assistance. The proposal and quote was complete and competitive. Sergio provided a great deal of information and explanation surrounding the cost and timeline. I would estimate that we talked (due to my questions and indecision) 10 times regarding stone selection. He met me to look at the stones, and then he dropped off stones I picked -or ones he thought I would like - so I could see them in my yard, close to my house, to make sure I was comfortable with the overall look and the fit with the house. I think he did this three different times as my thoughts changed as the project got closer. His team at the office provided drawings from every angle to show the patio before we started the work. I gave him measurements of patio furniture and where I want to place it, and he validated where it should go and confirmed that the shape of the patio would work with my plan to furnish the patio. He stayed in touch with me in the way that worked best - text, email and phone - for me. When installation began, I met the crew and the leader, Horatio, and they went to work. They worked hard, were respectful, answered any questions I had, were neat and orderly and provided realistic feedback about what would happen each day. It was clear to see their work ethic and craftsmanship as they worked. Sergio stayed in touch and came by, and let me know when inspection was going to happen and then coordinated the gas hook up for the grill with great follow up. When we finished, he came to assess each piece of the patio, and even worked with me on adjusting where I had furniture, as well as providing guidance on cleaning the stone. All in all, it was a really great experience and I ended up with what I wanted. I would actually say - I ended up with more than what I wanted because I wasn't sure. Deferring to the experts was the right call. It was a GREAT experience and I highly recommend Pavestone!"

"I would definitely recommend Strictly Stone I was happy with how our project turned out!! <br />"

"Stonewood Design Group did a fantastic job. I highly recommend their services. Rich Miyazaki is an extremely talented, creative and professional designer. His crew was punctual, professional, and did a great job of installing the plants and stone. My husband and I like Japanese-style gardens, and we wanted a design that incorporated some exotic specimens. Our yard looks fantastic--we are very pleased, and we have received many compliments from neighbors. We will definitely use Stonewood Design Group again and highly recommend their services."
