Andrew's crew did a pretty decent job with my concrete work. I spent approximately $15k on the…read morejob. His workers are very hard working and dependable. They always showed up on time everyday and sometimes earlier than expected to do the work. I was really happy with their work ethic. I was going to give a 4-5 star review. However, my interactions with Andrew was not the greatest. He started off very responsive when providing me a quote for the job but the communication started to dwindle once he knew the job had started and his bid was accepted. He never once visited the job to verify and conduct quality control. Good thing he had dependable workers who took ownership of the job. Fast forward to when the job completed and a full payment has been made by me, I requested for a receipt and he's been unresponsive. He responded at first telling me he would send over a receipt but never followed through with his promise. Eventually, he completely started to ignore my calls and texts. It's a simple receipt request for my own records but I received zero reply. I'm glad things worked out so far with my concrete work but it's really concerning that there's been a lack of communication from the owner of the company. Not sure how much accountability anyone has when they collect someone's money and completely ghost them. If I could have gone with another company I would have just for someone who can provide better service all the way through the entire process.

Andrew and the Apex Design Concrete crew are awesome. I highly recommend them for any concrete…read morerelated project you may have in mind. I hired Apex to help me redo and repave my front driveway. After meeting with over a dozen contractors and driveway/pavement professionals, I ultimately chose Andrew due to his communication skills, fair pricing, and flexibility. Andrew and his crew finished the job in a mere 4 days, and the concrete turned out fantastic! Throughout the entire process, I greatly appreciated how easy it was to communicate my questions directly with Andrew via text and phone. Additionally, the guys were incredibly accommodating towards my specific circumstances -- I had construction working around them on the inside of the home and the Apex crew were tidy, professional, and considerate of those other workers.

I would like to recommend Ivan's Masonry for your outdoor improvement projects if you are looking…read morefor outstanding craftsmanship and value for your money. We hired Ivan's Masonry for two jobs: driveway renovation and a new stairway with walkway. From onset it was a long journey for us figuring out what material we will be comfortable with. Ivan patiently consulted us on every available material: concrete, stamping, coloring, and many styles from different providers of concrete pavers. None really resonated with our vision. After a month of research we ended up selecting clay pavers for their traditional look and lasting quality. The problem was that no contractor in our area would even consider working with clay pavers. Initially Ivan also refused but with some prodding he actually agreed to install clay pavers and did an amazing job. The team would start consistently punctually at 7 am and worked full days. Ivan, the owner, would work on the job 100%, including operating the equipment and setting the pavers. The site was kept reasonably clean and the process was well organized. We love the results. Our house became the model for the street as a first house with pavers. Many people complimented on the improvements and expressed the desire to contract with Ivan's Masonry. We are wising Ivan to prosper in his business, and for you guys - wishing you to choose your masonry contractor wisely. Go Ivan's Masonry!

We ABSOLUTELY LOVE our raised patio that Monroe Masonry built for us!!! It turned out so well and…read moreworking with Eddie and his team was such a positive experience that even though it was almost a year ago they did the work, I just had to share. We got other bids on the project but none compared to the honest, straightforward communication we got with Eddie. We benefitted from his years of experience but also from his long-held contacts in the field. During the building process things came up like needing the footings for the posts of a pergola another contractor was going to build for us on top of the patio but he was out of the country at the time. Not a problem. Eddie had worked with him on previous projects and was able to get the footings and install them for us. Then we needed to make decisions regarding any electrical we wanted on and around the patio which needed to be encased in tubing with all the other underlayment and Eddie's electrician buddy came right away to help us so that our project didn't get delayed. We didn't work with an architect on this project. It was just me laying down a garden hose to visualize what a patio would look like and going over it with my husband. Getting the elevations right was tricky since we didn't want a railing to obstruct our view of the garden. Eddie was so helpful with this but he also has the smartest right-hand-man, I think his name is Manuel, who saved the day for me. I wanted to extend the patio out a certain way and in telling him what I envisioned he improved the design on the spot! He eliminated one of the steps transforming the design making it more seamless and elegant. A small thing and yet it was huge in the scope of things. Don't hesitate to have Monroe Masonry do your job. Your only problem might be that he'll be too booked with work when you call.

Well the wall we had told Edwin do. Well we wanted larger rebar and more then required by code…read more The wall to be concrete filled. All went to plan. Except for the LIEN we got from the concrete pump company he used. This was after the fact of paying Edwin. It was unnecessary stress on my elderly family members. I had to get mad at Edwin for not paying his subcontractor which then affect us and our property. I would suggest to make sure he has current insurances and that all his sub contractors are paid before your final payment to him. So maybe get their phone numbers to verify first? What a terrible experience. The work was decent and is a 5 star. But the business ethic of getting his people paid and affect people's title of their property. Not ok! Zero stars for that. I don't want to hurt his business by giving just one star so I will give 3 of 5. UPDATED. REVIEW. Maybe I should lower the stars though because Edwin is saying he doesn't know anything about this which is now a bold face total lie and I'm gonna post photos of our text messages of him saying he's gonna clear it all up. Edwin, you should've just said yes you screwed up instead of trying to cover up your light now you should get less stars. Reply No, the text chain you are in that. Don't try to deny it because I can prove it if I open it up it will show your name Edwin. You'd be better off saying yeah you screwed up you're a human you're not perfect and just admit to it but now the people will see you're not honest and if you get the photo taken down since it's a real photo and a real text chain, I'm sure I can get it back up You are the contractor who holds the license who signed the project contract, who agreed to make sure everything runs smoothly and you're the one who carries supposedly Insurance for that You should actually be sued for the situation because you cause two elderly people major stress and compromise their title to the property. Shame on you.

They later helped to clear out all our weeds, planted new succulents, bushes, plants, and added a fruit tree--which leveled up our yard. They also fixed some issues with our irrigation system, which was a huge plus. You can really tell Ramuldo and Eric care about what they do. They were super knowledgeable about plants, trees, and even local wildlife, which made the whole process feel really thoughtful and not just like a quick job. It did take a few visits to get everything done, but honestly, the end result was worth it. I'd trust them again for future landscaping projects

He took the time to carefully measure everything, explain the work clearly, and helped our community make the right long-term decisions instead of just the cheapest fix. The quality of the concrete work turned out great, and what impressed us the most was the follow-up service after completion. When we had some concerns about curing color variation, Joe personally came back with his team to inspect and take care of everything right away. That level of responsibility and professionalism is rare nowadays. Very fair pricing, great communication, and a team that truly stands behind their work.

We originally had Crown Pavers do a lot of work for us 10 years ago. They did an OK job although…read morethere were a couple of basic mistakes (fire pit not centered, walkway lines not lining up) but not horrible. The problems started soon after when some touch up work needed to be done from damage caused by another contractor. We never expected them to fix it for free as the other contractor was going to pay for it. Still, Manny went in a tirade with my wife seriously disrespecting her and giving her grief. They did ultimately come out to make the repairs at no charge. Fast forward to now. We had some lights that burnt out needing to be replaced, we wanted the pavers power washed and resealed, and there were a handful of pavers that needed to be reattached... nothing major. My wife wanted to give Manny another chance as they did the original work. She called him and told him what needed to be done. He said text the address and he will let her know when he can come by to look at it. She did and we never heard back. She contacted him again a few days later and asked what happened, got excuses. A day and time were set. The day comes, and I have taken off work. He texts her in the morning saying he's stuck on a job far away and can't make it. The day is rescheduled. The next scheduled day comes, I take off work again, the time comes and goes and no Manny. After waiting 2 hours, my wife texted him. He read the message a few minutes later and never answered back. That was days ago, and we have still never heard back from him. Keep in mind, this is how he is treating an existing customer who has previously paid him 10's of thousands of dollars. You be the judge. I am giving the original work 3.5 and everything since 0, so I am being generous with the 2 rating. To Manny's response... I have the off centered fire place and lines not lining up on the walkway... not my imagination. We also still have your insulting messages from 10 years ago. Finally, you have time to read and give a long response to this review from Mexico, but you don't have time for a quick phone call or text saying an emergency came up and you can't make it. I don't think so. You keep saying "we", but this has all been you personally. Not an employee, not Crown Pavers... you. As for problems during the job 10 years ago, also not true. The problems only started when we called you about the repairs which again the contractor was going to pay for.
