Patio and stairs

The crew at GO are very talented. They were able to make all of our "it would be nice to have" requests come true. Plus they had a lot of insights into features that made a real difference in our patio area. For example, the stair and sitting wall lights were a nice touch, that they suggested. I really can't say enough nice things about the team.

Showing the attention to detail (e.g., re-bar was put on footers; cinder block on interior.)

Experienced, reliable, hard-working, fast - and good pricing. Highly recommend, for the following reasons: GO Masonry just completed the following projects for us: (1) re-do of two walkways; (2) complete re-set of patio stonework; (3) new drainage project involving building a brick-encased flowerbed; and (4) power-washing the patio's glass overhang. What we liked: 1. Price. GO Masonry was actually the lowest bidder (we interviewed about four local companies) for this work. 2. Reliability & Speed. GO Masonry completed all the work within two weeks. The team usually arrived by 8 a.m. each day and worked until 5 p.m. They also worked on two successive Saturdays. 3. Experience. GO Masonry stands for "Gerber Ortiz Masonry." This is a family business. Gerber, his dad, grandfather, and other extended family do the work. The expertise shows: they completed the drainage project quickly and even better than we expected because this wasn't their first rodeo. They organized everything (covered the lawn; preserved the plants on the side of the house; ran two French drains; the works). 4. Family. Because GO Masonry employs family, the working vibe is happy, committed, and very friendly. We got to know Gerber and his dad...and his grandfather (who looks like a much younger man) helped out because he likes to keep busy!! We found Gerber to be highly responsive, easy to work with, and absolutely committed to customer satisfaction. We highly recommend GO Masonry based on our experience.

For many years I have thought about redoing our walkway at the front of the house which the original builder had provided in 2002. It had the plain 24x24 large stepping stones and weed was growing in between. It was no longer leveled. It was dirty and narrow for anyone visiting to walk on from the driveway to the front door. The front stoop was also breaking apart. After evaluating few options, I had a meeting with Gerber who owns GO MASONRY. I shared with him my vison and goal for the driveway. Gerber was professional and very creative. He worked with Katherine to present me with an elegant design incorporating my needs and recommending other features that would simply beautify my front entrance. Gerber presented me with beautiful design redoing our entire walkway with the Nicolock Blue Ridge paver in Chesapeake Blend color (https://nicolock.com/products/blue-ridge/) with integrated paver Fusion lighting throughout that just dazzles at night. In addition, Gerber and Katherine incorporated two retaining walls on the sides of our front landing. Each retaining wall had a column with a color-matching cap. Once walkway was completed, my family and I were blown away at the craftsmanship, quality and look. Every time any of my neighbors walks by, they stop to gaze at it and admire its beauty. It came out better that we could have imagined. Since Gerber, Katherine and the rest of the GO MASONRY team did an excellent job with our walkway, we decided to hire them to build a retaining wall around our pool patio with integrating columns and lighting throughout. That came out flawlessly. The team also sealed our entire pool patio and today, it looks amazing after withstanding the harsh winter. I am very happy that I decided to trust GO MASONARY with my home projects. They helped me realize a vision beyond my dreams while charging a fair price and being honest every step of the way. I highly recommend GO MASONRY with any of your home projects. You will not be disappointed. See attached real photos for yourselves.

sinking pavers had nothing to do with power washing.

Gerber please don't be dishonest to your future customers the damage of the sinking pavers were done within a year at the your company putting the pavers down and it had nothing to do with me getting my pavers power washed because the power wash came after they came out and fix the sink in pavers. As far as you not feeling comfortable with coming to Maryland from Virginia because of gas fuels you should have stated that when you and I was speaking and you told me that you would be out the following week to give me a quote and have the work done in the mid-May. An excuse is only good for the person that needs it and right now you need an excuse about why you did not honor your word. You felt comfortable enough to come out to Maryland from Virginia and get the $20,000 that I paid you to put down these pavers. Please don't lie whatever you do don't lie you should have communicated that to me when we talked and reinterlocking the pavers. If the cost of fuel is how you do business then maybe you shouldn't be in business. Again buyers beware of this company do not do business. unless you want excuses and messed-up pavers. Stephanie

Hours after the potting soil was washed away.

What was supposed to be a 2-4 day job turned into me having a hole in my backyard for close to a month after GO tore up my existing concrete patio but had not yet procured the pavers for the new one. There are legitimate supply shortages, and I did tell them to go ahead with the demo after being told the pavers would be available within a few days so I can't hold totally against them, however I do feel I was mislead. The real reason for the bad review, and the reason why I will not be using GO Masonry to redo my driveway and front walk this Fall is because there were multiple times through the process where emails, calls and texts would go unanswered for days at a time. Also once the patio was laid it took days to get a response from GO about when they would come lay dirt around the edges to complete the project. After days of not responding to calls or moving the completion date back multiple times they finally showed up and just threw down 3 bags of potting soil around the edges of the patio, all of which was washed away by rain a few hours after they left. After I complained GO did say they would come back to fix this, however at this point I was sick of them not responding to my calls or not showing up when they said they would. My five year old child badly cut his foot on the patio edging so I just hired another company to finish the job, which they did the next morning in under 2 hours.

Reached out for an estimate several times, no response. A bit frustrating. Maybe they are too busy, maybe they are out of business?

It's more than a year later and I am seeing the response. He definitely NEVER reached out to me personally as he stated he was going to.

Given our contractor's schedule, I had a very narrow pocket of time to have the flooring installed while everything - and everyone - was out. Enter Mod Garage. From my initial outreach, Greg was at my place well inside of 24 hours taking measurements. I had an estimate in my inbox before end of day, and we agreed to proceed straight away. Within 72 hours from initial outreach, I had an incredible new floor installed and drying - ready for the contractor to pick up his work a day or two later. Greg was polite, patient, and professional and his team left a clean job site despite incredible efficiency in getting their work done. Greg uses top notch product that you can just tell will last the test of time, and I'm looking forward to years of enjoyment with this upgrade we made to our home. Bottom line, if you're considering epoxy or similar finishes and you're in the DMV, give Greg a call.

Later that day, an advertisement for Lifetime Green Coatings was hanging on my front door knob. (I found out later one of the guys who works for the company was driving by and saw my predicament--very smart move.) Communication was friendly, easy, and straightforward. Got an estimate real quick and they were able to do the job in less than a week. The weather prevented them from finishing when they wanted, but so what? I'd rather have something done well than have it done quickly. Highly recommend!

He took over an hour to measure everything and sent me the lumber quote he received so that I was fully informed, then we talked labor. He would point out problematic areas (like rotting framing) and would ask me if I wanted to have it replaced rather than just covering it up with the new surface. He did an amazing job that had my mom's tenants and the neighbors complementing the work and I felt the price was very reasonable. Based on that job, I brought him out to take a look at my townhouse to possibly replace the siding and he suggested sanding, priming and painting instead due to the price of replacement. They sanded almost every square inch of it, primed it (in some areas twice) with a peeling paint primer that is like glue to fill in gaps and keep the rest of the old paint from peeling, and then put a double coat over everything. When they finished, I was surprised to find that they had power washed our patio, porch, and front half-height fence and even painted the fence though we never talked about doing any of that work. I felt compelled to pay him extra. Deck Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wELQYf0YGKY
