There are 3 questions you must ask and answer with YES when working with a contractor. 1. Will the job be completed on time? 2. Will the job be completed properly and according to your satisfaction? 3. Will the job be completed within the agreed upon price? I can wholeheartedly say that Roy Targia and his team understands this! While my job was not big, it was very important to me. I've always wanted a nice stone patio and firepit in my backyard. When I began my search for contractors, I came across Roy's web site. I contacted Roy via email and I heard back within a couple of hours. The next day, Roy was at my house walking through my vision with me. I had also contacted 2 other companies who took at least 3-4 days just to respond to my initial email. To make matters worse, these companies told me it would take 1-2 weeks before they could even come to my home to give me a quote!!! So I had a comparison, I gave these companies my specifications so that I could receive an email quote. One quote was higher and one quote was about the same as Roy. By this point, Roy and I had already been sending text messages back and forth, continuing to discuss my project. The choice was clear to me and I notified Roy that I wanted to proceed. I was a little bummed because I know that Roy is very busy. He had informed me that he may not be able to get to my project until late June because of his busy schedule. While I had hoped he could get it done sooner, I knew I wanted to work with someone who was honest, straight forward and communicative. I was willing to wait. Roy contacted me on June 8 and told me, if I was available, he could get my project done the following Monday!!! I was ecstatic. I thought I was going to have to wait until July to enjoy my new firepit, only to find out I would have it done in early June! When I have a vision of how something should be, I am one of those people who will not be happy until that vision is met or exceeded. I had not planned for my project to be scheduled so quickly and figured I had more time to decide on things like stone color and whether or not I wanted a border on my patio. Roy informed me that I should take a drive out to Fairfield, NJ to see the outdoor showroom, Structural Stone. When I got there, my vision changed. I started seeing examples of things I loved and I quickly texted all sorts of pics to Roy. I decided I wanted a charcoal border for my pavers patio and a blue stone sil for my firepit. These items would give my patio a more polished look. In many past experiences, throwing any kind of a curve ball at a contractor at the last minute would surely result in frustration and disaster. That's not the case with Roy. He wanted me to be happy and he agreed the choices I was making would result in a better finished product. What I was asking for was going to potentially delay my project another 1-2 weeks according to the people at the showroom. Roy was not about to let that happen. He used his relationships with the people at the showroom and made sure my materials would be ready within 2 days. The following Monday, Roy and his team showed up at my house just as he said they would. They got the job done in 1 day, which was quicker than they had initially anticipated. A huge part of this was due to Roy's foreman Joe. He was an absolute professional; polite, friendly, communicative and helpful. By Monday night, my family and I were sitting around our new firepit talking, laughing and making new memories. I cannot recommend Roy, Joe and the rest of their team enough. I think what made my experience working with Roy the most positive was his exceptional level or personal communication. Success on any project relies on excellent communication and Roy understands that. My only issue with Roy is that he cannot be my contractor for every home improvement project I have. read more

Roy and his crew, led by Joe did a retaining wall replacement job for me. During the estimate Roy explained what the project needed to do the job correctly. We were replacing old railroad ties with new stone wall. It was a low but long wall that would need heavy equipment and an experienced crew. I bid the job out to three contractors and came away feeling confident that Roy Targia Masonry had the experience, the equipment and the crew to do the job. His wasn't the lowest price but he was very competitive and I trusted his 20 years of experience. Joe lead the crew and they worked all day, everyday until the job was done the right way. They had no issue with communicating and answering my questions and many have been working with Roy for many years. Dumpsters,backhoes, stone delivery all ran like clockwork keeping the project moving. I'm very a satisfied customer and would highly recommend Roy Targia Masonry. read more

We contacted Roy for the first time on May 7th and he was at our house to provide an estimate on May 9th. He was very punctual and informative when we discussed options. Once we decided on a material, Roy described how to go about viewing and ordering paver stones. We had a date in mind in which we wanted the job completed, and Roy got us on the schedule immediately. The communication throughout the process was exceptional. We were always informed of what the next step would be. Roy's crew was meticulous in completing the coping and surrounding patio. They even worked until dusk on a Friday night in order to get the pavers laid. The end result is wonderful, and we couldn't be happier. Before speaking with Roy, we had met, and received quotes from at least three other masons/landscapers. Roy's pricing was very fair compared to the others. Choosing Roy for the job was an easy decision. read more

My home project is beautiful thanks to Roy and his crew who did an A+ job on everything down to all the smallest details and they we on time everyday and did an outstanding job. Roy is honest, will work with you, and never beat you with any job. My wife was thrilled with the walkways, planters, driveway, patio, and all the stonework. I would never hire anyone but Roy to do my landscape construction work and I can go on vacation and leave Roy in charge next time because he was at my house 2 weeks and all I had to do was supply drinks for the crew. GREAT JOB AGAIN ROY!!!! read more

I can't speak highly enough of the job and the experience. The workmanship of the retaining wall was exceptional - beautiful beyond even what I expected. The team was great while on site - I actually had another mason stop by for something else and tell me what a great job they were doing putting plastic down, keeping thing tidy, etc. when it was time to go they went above and beyond clearing unwanted foliage and taking away some extra stone. Fantastic experience. read more
