    Driveway just seal coated
    Pam K.

    This is my second time using them to sealcoat my driveway and my parent's driveway . They are dependable. They come out when they say they're going to be. Definitely worth it. Driveway looks great. Worth the money.

    Fantastic work! Excellent workmanship. Great pricing. Thorough and on time. Poured concrete stairs and sealed the parking lot they installed previously. Highly recommend.

    My driveway was in need of some TLC after years of brutal IL summers and winters. What's more, the curb going up the driveway has always been brutal. If you weren't awake to start the day via coffee, hitting your head against the top of the car when driving over the curb would definitely do the trick. I reached out to Guardian to ask about getting rid of the curb and options for the driveway itself. They responded right away and provided two estimates: one for just a seal coat, and one to tear up the old driveway, clip the curb going up the driveway, and pour fresh asphalt for the driveway. The prices for both options were reasonable and on par with competitors. After reading so many other positive reviews on Yelp about Guardian, I decided to go with them. I opted to make the larger investment of clipping the curb and replacing the driveway. The whole thing was said and done in 3 days and I couldn't be more delighted by the results. The driveway is gorgeous and smooth. And now entering and exiting the driveway is seamless! I've posted a few after photos for reference. I'll absolutely be a repeat customer to help maintain this investment. The quality of work, professionalism of the team, and integrity of the company is clear.

    Excellent quality. Very efficient. Very clean. I heartily recommend this company. Thanks, Carl Metoyer

    Excellent service from start to finish. Our driveway needed a complete repair - it's been in pretty bad condition since before we moved into our house 7 years ago, and these guys got it done. They demoed the old asphalt, brought in new stone base, and paved with new asphalt the following morning. The workers were super respectful of our and our neighbors' property and worked very quickly. We would definitely hire Guardian again.

    While not the very cheapest quote we got, Guardian was still competitive in pricing. We worked with Rafael, who pursued getting the bond and permit necessary to get the job started. So nice not to have to do that stuff ourselves! Rafael was friendly, professional, and cared about the job. The Guardian team showed up on time, finished quickly, were respectful of our property, and did a great job.

    They did a fantastic job on a very neglected driveway! Looks like new again. They where accommodating with my request to get it done right away & times that worked for us with juggling other home improvements going on. Will be using them on other properties as well.

Overall its surface was badly pockmarked, and had sunk several inches lower than the garage slab. Before contacting any contractors, I looked at the options for a replacement driveway: basic concrete, stamped concrete, pavers, or concrete with a paver border. Ultimately I decided on basic concrete, for cost and ease of maintenance reasons. I got quotes from about a half dozen contractors before deciding to go with Sennstrom. While his proposal was not the lowest, I felt that the product they were providing (e.g. 5-inch thick, reinforced, 4000 psi concrete on compacted gravel base) along with their positive customer reviews, justified the cost. Once I accepted their proposal, the actual work started about 6 weeks later. From start to finish, it went like this: - Monday: start demolition of old driveway and front walk - Tuesday: finish demolition, install wooden formwork, install gravel base - Wednesday: inspection by city engineer - Thursday: no work, rained out - Friday: pour and finish concrete - Monday: apply polymer coating to existing front stoop, remove formwork The crew size varied from 1 to 5 depending on the task that day. The day the concrete was poured involved 4 workers and Tom (the owner). I liked that Tom was very much hands-on. (You can see this in my pics). The crew worked with a quiet efficiency where everyone knew exactly what to do without the need for direction. On Friday, they poured and finished the driveway and walkway (2 truckloads of cement) in 3 hours. Watching them finish the concrete was like watching artists at work. I had a chat with Tom while he was prepping the stoop for painting. I asked him if it was hard to find good workers. He said that he preferred to hire workers with either farm experience (who have a capacity for hard work and don't mind doing it) or a military background (who are trained to take orders without complaint). A good strategy. His crew foreman, Dennis, has been with him for 35 years. The finished driveway and walk look great, the crew's workmanship and attention to detail were outstanding, and the owner is someone who truly does right by his customers. Can't get better than this.

Another company came out, drilled down the uneven concrete and coated the cracks with matching concrete for $100. Is this a lifetime fix? No, cracks do re-open but even brand new concrete can crack over time. Then Glen said to repair walkway was $2500 (completely take up and replace so it sits at higher angle to front patio so the step up to the front concrete porch is not so high up. Another company put in a form and built me a concrete step that makes it possible to not replace the walkway, and then they filled in concrete imperfections and cracks in the sidewalk and left me extra concrete color, if it re-opens. My garage needed a new step (replace old wood one with concrete) and he quoted me $225.00 which is reasonable, and my side step had sunk and he quoted me $525 to replace it. The other company simply added a step to the side concrete, anchored the new form to the house, recoated original step and charged me $200. Their cost on the garage step was similar but they made it extra wide, so we can fully step out on it. I guess what I'm saying is there is more than one way to fix concrete, and Glen only does it the expensive way. If you have a large budget (I would have had to allot $8000.00), then yes, go for it. I also had concerns that all the drilling of the front patio would affect cracks in basement wall on that side and re-open them and queried Glen re that in the email (no response). Glen does not respond well (if at all) to emails, so remember to call. I think that he does great work, but remember it's only replacement work. He's not going to offer you any kind of "fixing" it work. I've learned through watching the other mason work, that concrete is fixable, also, by a home owner. It's fascinating watching him mix colours to match whatever imperfection needs patching. I now have fixed some low places and cracks in my garage floor myself!!

He said they'd take care of the lawn that afternoon and provide a quote on weeding/trimming. I received the quote for additional projects same day as well. Julio's not only came out for quote within 45 mins but also completed the mowing and entire weeding/trimming (very large lawn with lots of areas requiring attention) that afternoon. The quality of work is outstanding. The pricing is reasonable for the scope of work completed. I can't recommend this company highly enough. Extremely fast communication and in our case rapid same day completion of a nearly 4 hour project with multiple people working. Julio's is an outstanding small business and so happy to have found them. Have Julio's coming back today to apply pre-emergent and mulch project. Great people, great work and excellent communication, the yard has never looked better! Thanks Julio & team!
