We first opened our doors in 1989 with a few employees. We are a general contractor in South Central Alaska, Alaska's Asphalt Paving Specialist. We offer Residental and commerical services. GMG General, Inc. is licensed, Bonded, and insured.

"GMG appeared to do a great job asphalting the driveway. Four years later contacted them regarding an issued. They do not have a length of warranty time on their proposal. The office gals informed me it's one year. It is not on their contract. What is on the contract basically says they are not responsible for any problems. My situation is the asphalt didn't hardened underneath the top surface. While putting down edging between the grass and the asphalt, four years later, the underneath asphalt started coming out like lava. It was a day that was sunny and warm. Contacted GMG to informed them. General Manager Keven Rogers came over to look at the problem. He took measurements of the driveway and stated he would send over a proposal. After the second call he then sent over a blank proposal. Guess he was telling me It's Not GMG's Problem. This is a situation where it was not visual. How do you know what is happening underneath?"

At Makari Construction we believe that producing quality work, with financial transparency is the key to a successful contracting company. Unlike many contracting companies, bids and invoices are itemized with labor hours and material receipts so the customer can see where their money was contributed to the completion of a project. And if there is an opportunity to save finances on a budget, those savings are directly reflected on the customers invoice, rather than the contractor keeping that extra profit. We can perform any function from a simple honey-do list, to full remodels and additions. By building our foundation on honesty and transparency, we build stronger relationships with our customers.

Flawless Construction is a well respected Alaska general contractor who prides itself on providing excellent services to our valued customers at an affordable price. We strive for your business and our customers are very important to us. Let Flawless Construction help you on your next project. During the improvement process it is important to be organize and timely. The details in pre-planning your project are essential to the outcome. At Flawless Construction our team is dedicated and focused on performing your improvements to achieve a stress free project for you, our valued customer. Some remodeling companies describe design/build remodeling as simply the ability to produce the drawings for your project and then construct begin the build process. At Flawless Construction we believe that design/build should be much more than that. Each project is designed for the individual customer and satisfaction with the completed project is our primary goal. Working together with you during the design/build process is one of the best ways to assure your satisfaction. We work with you until we have what you want. A major benefit of our design/build techniques is that it makes the design phase much more efficient by bringing the budget into the picture from day one. Together, we will develop a design that works with your ideas, lifestyle and goals. Using an experienced contractor helps bring extensive knowledge of the materials and construction techniques to the design/build process. This adds value to the project by helping you select the right materials and construction methods. This helps to avoid the unnecessary expense of labor and material cost. Our service starts with your very first phone call to our company. During our business hours of Monday through Friday 8-am to 5pm you will be able to speak directly with someone in our office. We will briefly discuss the project, get some basic information and set up an appointment to look at your home. At our first meeting we will discuss your basic project, ideas and budget. We will show before and after pictures of past projects and discuss basic costs and fees for design work, building permits and so on. We will take some basic measurements and a few digital pictures of the project location. The first meeting usually takes about 1 hour. With this information we can prepare a preliminary estimate. If the project is simple, we may be able to give you an estimate on the spot. Once the preliminary estimate is done we will set up a second appointment either over the phone or in person. At the second appointment we will review the preliminary estimate and discuss the project in more depth. Most people are able to decide at this point, with the information provided, if they are ready to proceed on with their improvements.

"I have a drainage issue on my property and I enlisted Green Acres to solve the problem. They elected to connect all of my downspouts to underground piping and route it away and down slope of my house. For the area of the yard that was being saturated from neighboring, up-slope properties, they merely elected to regrade. Due to the amount of moisture involved, I was skeptical that regrading alone would be enough, but I decided to defer to their professional opinion. When everything was completed last fall, they hydro-seeded the graded area. I was suspicious that again, due to the large amount of moisture involved, all of the hydro-seeded areas would be washed out by spring before it could sprout, leaving me with uncovered soil. That is exactly what happened. I called multiple times last spring that their fall hydro-seeding failed and that they needed to come out and do it again (a whopping 15 minutes out of their day) but they never returned my calls. Ultimately, I went to Lowe's and bought a few large bags of soil and a couple large bags of grass seed and took care of the issue myself - and better than they would have done. If not for the hydro-seed problem, I would have given them four stars as they accomplished everything that they said they would - even though it turned out they needed to do something more than regrading to deal with the massive amount of water inundating my property. However, totally blowing off and ignoring a customer's legitimate complaint due to your company's failure is inexcusable. Therefore, they earn a well-deserved one-star review. If you plan on utilizing these people, have a lawyer on retainer ready to go after them. Otherwise, it may cost you more than a few bags of dirt and grass seed."

Patios questions, answered by experts

Scorpions have difficulty climbing smooth, non-porous surfaces like clean glass or polished metal because their pincers and feet cannot grip the surface effectively. While they are excellent climbers on rough or textured materials such as wood, stucco, or brick, slick surfaces prevent them from gaining traction or anchoring themselves. If you're trying to scorpion-proof parts of your home, using smooth materials for barriers or containers can be an effective deterrent strategy.

When hiring a concrete contractor, you should seek someone with proven experience, proper licensing, and insurance. You should also check reviews online, talk to references, and view past project photos. Remember that reliable contractors communicate openly and have an expert understanding of local building codes. You’ll also want to ensure that the contractor specializes in the specific type of concrete work you want, whether a driveway or tinted concrete flooring.

Cobblestone is just one of many driveway materials. Other, more economical, albeit less elaborate options include concrete, asphalt, and gravel. 

If you want a material that most closely resembles cobblestone, your best option is bricks or pavers. Both cost anywhere from $10 to $50 per square foot and can be laid in all kinds of patterns. Depending on the type of paver you choose, you can also get a good bang for your buck by investing in durable natural stone.

While it may be less expensive initially to lay concrete vs. pavers, the long-term expenses that come with repairing concrete may prove to be less cost-friendly than simply replacing a few damaged pavers. On top of that, stamped concrete may only last for 25 years compared to pavers, which can last over 50 years.

You should put gravel that is 3/4 to 1 inch under a concrete slab. However, depending on the project, local building codes may dictate the proper gravel size and shape. Some concrete slabs that do not hold significant weight may have a subbase of sand. Also, keep in mind that the subbase you choose will affect the cost of your concrete patio, walkway, or driveway.
