They showed up with their asphalt machine inoperable and then had to shift the install to premixed asphalt that hasn't held up well over the past three years. They then tried to upsell us on a promotional crack fix and seal which we committed to but they said would not be honored if the appointment had to be rescheduled due to weather, equipment breakdowns, supplier issues, etc. As a customer, we asked that they would honor a deal for matters outside of the customers' control but then they reneged. We found them to be a low quality company with poor sales and customer service.

Gerber responded very quickly, was prompt in coming out and telling me what he thought I should do. While he was there, I asked if they did stonework on walkways and patios as that was also part of what I needed. The work they did on the house and the walks was excellent. The team was great to work around, completed everything beyond expectations. Would recommend!

They delivered excellent craftsmanship and top notch design experience at a fair price. I initially hired Gerber to tune-up all my existing pavers, add a new paver driveway, and add some new path lighting. Adding the new driveway was somewhat of a challenge as the adjacent paver sidewalks were initially constructed over 10 years ago. So, Gerber was able to find a great match to my existing pavers and masterfully piece the new driveway together in such a fashion where old and new appear seamless. Amazing!!! During the process, we learned that his team also offered landscaping. So as the hardscaping and lighting was coming to an end, his team met with us for a design consultation. Both Kathy and Katherine brought some great experience/knowledge to assess our current situation and offered wonderful ideas to the overall design. We loved what we heard and proceeded with the landscaping work immediately. In the end, we could not be happier! And we look forward to using Gerber and his team should we have any additional hardscaping, landscaping, or lighting needs in the future.

We had our front walkway, stoop, threshold, and back patio completely redone in just three days…read more We love the end results! Jeremiah (the contractor) and his crew did an amazing job. I appreciated their attention to detail and their craftsmanship. Also, Jeremiah patiently answered all my questions throughout the entire process -- from the free estimate at our house through the completion of both projects. He also made several excellent recommendations regarding color, stain, layout, design and so forth. The new concrete walkway and stoop/threshold (with matching pavers) took years off the appearance of our house, which was built in 1969. The back patio also looks fantastic! They removed the original 4 concrete slabs, as well as some pavers that we had installed ourselves as a temporary fix several years ago. All of that was replaced by stamped concrete that was antiqued and sealed. One of our friends commented that the patio now resembles a European old world square. In addition, the project significantly increased the usable outdoor living space. We have received numerous compliments on both masonry projects from friends and neighbors. I would give Jeremiah and his crew 5 stars for the finished projects. I highly recommend their work! In fact, I would have given a 5 star review OVERALL but there were a couple issues that precluded me from doing so. First, I was told that the work at our house would begin between 8:00 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. but no one showed up until approximately 3:30 p.m. [They had been at another site working on a concrete project that had been delayed due to rain earlier that week]. I understand scheduling conflicts can happen, especially with businesses that are at the mercy of Mother Nature. However, I would have appreciated a simple phone call to keep me in the loop. Throughout the morning and early afternoon I left voice messages with the contractor and Masonry Specialist, LLC. I sent a couple emails to the company. I even posted a message on Masonry Specialist's Facebook page. It was only through Facebook that I received a response. The second -- and main reason -- I gave 4 stars instead of 5 has to do with the way the final payment process was handled. Our two projects combined were not inexpensive. Therefore, I wanted to take advantage of my credit card companies' rewards programs. I emailed Masonry Specialist and asked if I could put half the project cost on one card (to get air miles) and half on another card (to get points). Brandy at Masonry Specialist responded via email, "We can certainly accept credit cards, however, they charge us a 3.5% fee -- with two transactions, they would charge us 2x -- we prefer cash or check due to this." I suggested a compromise. I said I could send a check that day for half the payment and then immediately call her with a credit card number to pay the remaining amount. Brandy responded that she would be happy to accommodate. HOWEVER, she would pass on the 3.5% credit card fee to me. What?!? Since I wasn't thrilled with the idea of having to pay more than we both had originally agreed to, I wrote a personal check for the entire amount and mailed it to the company. Masonry projects can be costly. I doubt that all families have large sums of cash at their disposal. I would hope that Masonry Specialist, LLC would reconsider its policy of charging customers a fee for the convenience of using credit cards. That would be a 5-star idea.

It was a massive undertaking and I'm glad that I got a quote from Virginia Drainage and Erosion. I would definitely recommend them to at least come and give you a quote. The pricing is reasonable for my project.
