Terrible on all fronts. Simple front yard renovation. Sidewalk was to be removed and concrete poured, lawn to be removed and re-sodded. Just a few of the issues are listed below. 1) sidewalk not cribbed properly three times, the last straw was when they cribbed it 14" out of skew. I had a surveyor confirm this (again at my expense) 2) They tried to pour concrete on dirt (instead of agreed compacted gravel) also tried to pour concrete on loose sand, rebar not installed properly and not tied into house foundation 3) I left the work site for 45 minutes and they dug 12" deeper than agreed so they wanted another 2k to do this... no discussion. I had to pay for a load of gravel delivered and I had to build the area up myself in 1" lifts with a compactor to fix it (after they were fired) 4) Most other home owners would have just let them pull the wool over their eyes. Even the subcontractors thought the entire situation was a joke 5) They left a giant root ball on my lawn I had to use a bob cat to remove at my expense (after 5 requests for them to come get it) I have tried to come to a financial agreement as they took my 5,000$ deposit and essentially cost me more money than they accomplished. I am now to the point of starting small claims against them as they don't return my emails and it should not be allowed that this happens to me and others as well. Here are just a few photos of the project before they were fired. The front view shows a white line where the sidewalk should have been placed. The wood cribbing is where they endlessly tried to convince me was correct. The aerial shot shows it's obviously wrong. Other photos show rebar sticking out of the cribbing, not tied properly to the house and the dirt/sand they wanted to pour concrete on. Not to mention wrongly cribbed dimensions, cribbing not lining up with gate etc etc. Again I tried multiple times to resolve this without posting a review like this and going through the court system.
