Terrible finished product, at twice the bidded price…read more Upon calling Joe for a bid, he requested the address so he could come out and look at the site before bidding it. (The work site was accessible from the alley so we we didn't need to be home for him to review it). A week later, I texted and asked if he'd been by, and if he had any questions. He sent a bid, which was lower than others and we booked him for the work. On the day of, Joe announced that he was charging us twice as much because he didn't know there was any demo/paver removal involved- which he would know if he'd looked at the site before bidding the project. We were frustrated but agreed because the timing was critical for the next phase of our project. The bid was for 8" deep, with rebar. I came out when he was 1/3 of the way into the pour to discover Joe was pouring 2"-6" deep, with no rebar. When I questioned him, he flatly lied and said it was 8" depth until I offered to get a measuring tape, at which point he admitted it wasn't. He then tried to pour using our uneven pavers as the form. When confronted he noted he'd use an even edge- we afterward discovered he used lumber from our property for framing the pour. There are so many more issues, I wont outline them all. The end result cost twice as much as originally bid, and may need to be jackhammered out so that it can be poured correctly.

The old driveway was removed on Friday. On Monday the forms and rebar was installed. Then the cement truck arrived and the concrete was spread evenly 6 inches deep. The surface was smoothed out evenly. Then, Coca-Cola was sprayed over the surface which prevented the top layer of cement to harden. Later in the day, Joe returned and washed the top layer of concrete away exposing the aggregate. The finished product looked exactly as Joe said it would.

Thanks!! My old house needed a special touch on the demolition at the roof line and I couldn't be more pleased. Yes, a higher bid than another, but this is a great positive example of "you get what you pay for!" Excellent, professional work, completed on time. Duck left no trace.

They tore out…read moreand replaced our cracked patio and driveway, and tore off the front steps and replaced them what can only be described as a beautiful ramp. They decided the ramp would look better widened a bit as it approaches the door with a slightly elevated side on the curved part to lessen the slope, and it is better than we thought of. They even carried the pattern of the ramp out into the driveway which is hard to describe but made the front of the house look like a coherent and attractive whole. The pattern of the back patio was changed by them into one with smaller sections and somehow the patio looks quite a bit bigger and better. At the end we could have chosen exposed aggregate or a smooth surface for the driveway and ramp and they advised exposed aggregate even though it adds three steps to the process that take quite a while and there was no increase in price. The exposed aggregate gives better traction for an accessibility ramp which they wanted to provide. I only wish there were more contractors like Royal Kingdom Masonry. I am lucky enough to have a father-in-law who spent his working life doing this sort of thing and I quietly asked for advice at every step. All the suggestions they made were correct and designed to improve the strength and durability of the final job. They did a thorough cleanup, fixed tricky sprinkler heads they needed to move, and left our house looking twenty years younger. They also gave us a really good price which is important. They are also really nice people to have around your house. I wouldn't think of using another firm.

Living in a 30-year-old home for the past two decades we've had several phases of upgrades, but one…read morething has always been absent from a 10x10 slab on our back porch: a hot tub. So, this summer, we decided to move forward with the plan to be "soakin' for the holidays" three months away. The only thing standing in the way of that dream: the slab and its neighbor had sunk a few extra degrees, roughly three inches, at the far edge. We were going to need to shore up and permanently stabilize this slab if our hopes of the (3-ton when filled) tub were going to materialize. I made a quick call to Terra Firma and they had an estimator out within a few days. The pricing was reasonable and had the standard 50% up front 50% when complete-type contract. Casey arrived spot-on at 8:00am yesterday morning and began doing his magic (the process involves boring 1/2" holes through the slab, then using high pressure and heat to inject a molten expanding foam under the slab.) The foam is rated to support about 5 tons (10,000 pounds) per pound of foam material, and....100 pounds later that whole slab is back to following the prescribed slope perfectly, raising almost three inches on the sunken side. He did a great job and was a great rep for the company, explaining what little was left to explain. He kept me up on the status of the (4-hour) job as he went along--because our slabs had previously cracked, he had to gently lift it up in small sections so as to not have the sections separate further. Perfect job. 24 hours later and the patched holes have dried to almost-invisible (see photos). Unless you know what you're looking for, you can't even really see that repairs were made. Now I just need to fill in the pre-existing cracks with concrete patching caulk and we're ready to schedule the hot tub delivery! Yippee! Thanks Terra Firma!
