From start to finish, Miguel was incredibly communicative and easy to reach, which was so refreshing. Their estimate was detailed, the crew was as tidy as you can possibly be on a job like this, and they finished right on schedule. I was also struck by what a great team Miguel has. The guys genuinely seemed to enjoy working together, and Miguel himself was on site frequently throughout the project. Everyone was professional, pleasant, and clearly took pride in their work. We're extremely pleased with the finished product and would absolutely hire Miguel and Sunshine Brickpointing again for any future masonry work.

I reached out to Blue Collar Scholars because a patio and a sitting area I had installed 22 months…read moreago and both started to fail badly! 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!!
