Since I bought my house I've wanted to do something about my backyard. There was a concrete pad…read morebehind my house but it was very unlevel, the concrete was busted up and the drainage situation was bad. I'd heard several good things about Custom Stoneworks and Design from my neighbors so I got in touch with Tony, the company's owner, and he came over to my place to come up with a plan and work up a cost estimate. After seeing my situation and discussing what I was looking for Tony got back to me fairly quickly with a price for the job. The cost was reasonable, but construction work had to wait a few weeks because he had a backlog of projects. Once the job was done I was extremely happy with the results. My backyard looks great and as far as I can tell no corners were cut and there was no sloppy work. There were a few minor unexpected issues with a drainage pipe but those were easily dealt with. The work did take longer than originally estimated (what was supposed to be a one day job turned into 2 & 1/2) but all I had to do was unlock my back gate before I left for work in the morning so the delay didn't really impact me. Another thing I was happy about was that Tony seemed to be familiar with the challenges of working on small city rowhouses. There's no convenient place to park a truck near my house and the only access to my backyard is through a narrow walkway. None of those were a problem although I'm sure it made life harder for the guys doing the work.

Robbie and his father went out of their way to make sure I got a brand new better floor and took care of it. They stopped selling the product that I initially bought because of my situation. They are a stand-up family owned and operated business that really went out of their way to help me in my situation. They didn't have to, but they did. They stand by their products and go out of their way to help. I highly recommend RPS Carpet and Flooring to everyone and anyone who needs to replace or newly install flooring. They have a huge selection and like I said, are men of their word. I couldn't be happier with the new product that was just installed in place of the first one I chose. Leah A.

I can attest and verify that Maryland Glass Block is out of business and court records show that a…read moreprincipal of this business is scamming potential customers out of their money.

BEWARE!!!

On September 22 2025, my mother and I had these guys do 7 windows for us and its been a nightmare…read moretrying to get them to straighten it out. 5 out of 7 windows are installed misaligned, meaning they literally are not centered in any shape, form or fashion to the foundation wall. This is both visible from outside and especially inside. You can clearly/easily see how one side of each window will be all the way in and one side will be all the way out. 3 windows have damage to the vent screens with 1 of those vent screens actually having a tear in the screen where the corner of a another glass block window actually scratched the vent glass itself. How do I know this? I watched them unload all 7 windows out of the back of a Buick towncar where they couldn't even be bothered to put something in-between each window to help avoid accidental transportation damage. Also one window has chipped glass on the exterior of the window. 6 out of 7 windows have visible product barcodes that you can see in every angle that you look at the windows which is ludicrous that they thought that was acceptable to the customer. Their installers installed damaged windows that they had to have seen/known at the time and just didn't care. Their installers also left me a slop mess under the 1 bathroom wall window with mortar all over the place. My mother and I have called, emailed and I have went to their place of business which was unbelievably closed around noon on a Friday. The owner stated in a email on October 19th that they would make it right which still hasn't happened as of November 2 2025. We would have never used this company had we would have known that we were going to have damaged windows, crooked installations and a plethora of lovely barcodes to look at forever. To add insult to injury it sucks being told your right that they need to make it right and nothing ever happening as a result of it. I have tried to avoid filing a mhic claim but I have to at this stage as they are avoiding both my mother and I at all costs. I would like to make a point in stating that I have not called repeatedly every day all day, I have given a bare minimum of 4 to 5 days at a time to get a response and that just hasn't happened. We want them to either remanufactor every window or refund us as we didn't pay 2802.00 for this kind of sloppy work. I hope this helps someone else as what they did to us is unacceptable and they are doing nothing about it besides dragging it out further with no resolution. When you see this Mr. Scott Fava, I've been incredibly patient, please call one of us and either cut a check and refund us or remanufactor these windows and make it right. Update 11/10/25, we dug into Mr. Fava hard and found he lost his MHIC license in Februrary 2025, he has a 213,000 dollar IRS judgement against him, he has new and prior claims against him and it would seem he hasn't paid any of his debts in a long time. Do Not Under Any Circumstances give this jackass any of your money, time or consideration for his work as he isn't licensed and is literally out here robbing peter to pay paul as we are fairly certain he did this shit to us just as a quick money grab to pay down his judgements against him. Absolutely ridiculous, we did a pretty good overall look at Maryland Glass Block before we did business with them and wish we would have looked into Mr. Fava personally a lot harder. He robbed us of over 2800 with his silicone constructed, misaligned and barcode laden windows all while promising us he would make it right. His failure to make it right for us is going to result in another lawsuit as he committed a fraudulent act against us personally by operationing under the guise of being a legitimate business when he was no longer licensed. I will update this as the matter proceeds. We have already started the process.

My Mom got her kitchen floor replaced and it looks like a new kitchen. We went into the store and…read moreChris was very helpful and to the point and showed us the tiles & left us to pick one we liked. He was professional and a pleasure to work with. We were given a price and the contract was signed that same day! The agent came the next week to measure her floor for the exact measurements and once Chris had the info he called back & the price did change by about $1k but still an excellent price! She put a deposit down when we first went there then paid the rest of invoice when they scheduled the installation. We don't know time frames for ordering products but it took over a month before she got another call to schedule the install. The installers came yesterday & were very professional & did a good job. They even matched up the molding coming into the kitchen & around cabinets and walls and it was perfect. It did take all day but overall great work and again the floor looks amazing.

I want to give no star rather negative points to the owner of the blue star at 5200 Glenn Arm…read more He is arrogant, rude, and a liar. I order the materials for flooring through him. After installing my floor, when I went to return leftover material he misbehave with me and refused to take the materials back and talked to me rudely and arrogantly.

I would suggest anyone before dealing with the owner of the blue star make sure to take everything in writing, because he manipulates the whole situation. As he made sure he will take back whatever would be the leftover but he totally changed his behavior when I went to return the leftover materials,as the leftover materials were closed boxes not the open ones. no recommendation, be careful
