What Our Clients Say

  • I hired Jeff to design and construct a large backyard stone patio, and I couldn't be happier with the results. He helped me select the stone and offered excellent advice about the various options. He hand cut and fitted each piece and included a unique design element that adds to the beauty. Several people who saw the finished product called it a work of art. I also appreciated the solid foundation and craftsmanship that will minimize maintenance and ensure longevity. Jeff is reliable, trustworthy, and personable, and I recommend him most highly.

    Nancy J.

  • Jeff did an excellent job tuck pointing about 300 square feet of brick supporting and surrounding the front porch of my craftsman bungalow, restoring it to its original 1911 condition. In addition he replaced two broken down concrete rail caps on the porch pony walls, forming and pouring the new rail caps in place. Unlike the old caps, the new ones have interior rebar and will easily last another 100 years. He did the work in a timely manner, at a reasonable price, and he was a pleasure to work with.

  • "I've done three projects with these folks and every thing went just as planned. Great work and great communication, equally great contractor."
