We had a leak in our cellar underneath the porch, at first we were going to redo the porch stones but once those were removed we noticed some very large cracks in the concrete so we ended up removing the original concrete and redid the stone on the steps as well. Very glad we chose this option as it turned out the concrete had no rebar in it to support that huge slab of cement! So glad it got redone the proper way so that we don't have to worry about it falling on anyone's head 5 to 10 years from now. The father-son team of Zachos Construction are highly skilled, honest, and very hardworking. They produced a quote very quickly, arrived early each day, expeditiously and carefully removed the old stones and concrete (which they pointed out were done completely wrong), and replaced it all with new (and much higher quality) materials. Now our front porch feels solid as a rock and is gently sloping so any water wicks away from the house immediately. We've already received numerous compliments from neighbours! One neighbour happens to be a retired stonemason who really appreciated the quality workmanship he saw. We just had a few rainfalls and storms and the cellar is now free of leaks! We are very happy with the work that has been done, and hope we can get this team back to install a matching driveway :)
