They took their time and did an incredibly thorough and excellent job. We are really happy with the result and felt that it was a high priority to deliver a high quality product.

Capitol Hill Masonry redid the exterior wall, made sure the brick and mortar were in good shape, and did an excellent job painting and cleaning up the job site.

A couple of days later Ryan sent me a plan that included specifications, estimated number of days for completion and pricing. I was so impressed with the attention to detail that I signed almost immediately. While waiting for the materials (e.g., cement) to be delivered Blue Collar was in constant communication with me. Once work began the emails, texts, etc. continued providing updates from the Project Managers, Daniel and Ron. Although Daniel was out of town, Ron was on-site every day making sure the project was proceeding to my satisfaction. I want to point out that the two-man crew was fantastic - they took great care in completing each phase of the construction. In fact I considered them "artistes'". Note to Blue Collar - please add their names to this review. All in all Blue Collar Scholars did an excellent job. The attention to detail, communication AND Trust were essential in providing the best experience possible. As others on this site have said - 5 stars is not enough! I highly recommend Blue collar Scholars for your next project.

The pavers were collapsing and the whole patio and the sitting area was sliding away from the house and into my fence due to being installed poorly by someone who didn't know what they were doing and didn't want to fix it. Christian came out, gave me an estimate that day and we approved it that day. Within a couple weeks I was contacted by, Andrea introducing me to the crew that would be doing the work and shortly after the work started. During the process of the demo we realized just how poorly everything had been done previously. It was gonna be a little more work than expected. That didn't phase the crew one bit! These guys are machines!!! I could watch the whole process on my cameras from work and the guys just never stopped working but to maybe take a 30 minute lunch or to get a cold drink in them, they were amazing and I cannot praise them enough!! The project was estimated to take 5 days and even with the newly added work to fix everything they were done in 4 days!!! started on Tuesday, August 25 (which happened to be my birthday) and were done on Friday the 28th! The entire staff of BCS that I dealt with were outstanding and my wife and I couldn't be happier with our new Patio version 2. If you need work done, reach out to these folks...you won't be disappointed!!! Thank you to everyone at BCS!!
