Get matched with top masons in Alhambra, CA

"About a year ago we had our frame braced and bolted to the foundation (seismic retrofit) . The Foundation Works did a top notch job with a professional crew at every step. Their price was similar to other bids and they worked with us through the Earthquake Brace and Bolt program. They also stuck to their time lines. We were very happy with them, but here's the cherry on top. We had copper pipes installed recently. When the county inspector was out to inspect that job, he looked at the work under the house. He asked us who did our brace and bolt job. We told him and asked why. He said he could see that they did a really great job."

"I hired Alpha Structural to earthquake brace and bolt my 1924 bungalow. The project took two days. The team was fantastic, starting with Project Mgr, Aldo. All the guys respected my property and left so clean you can't they were here. I highly recommend Alpha Structural for any foundation work you may need"

"Couldn't be happier with the project from start to finish. Same day quote, with work following quickly after that. Tile installer was outstanding."

"Conrad and his team at Del Mar Landscaping are great. His guys are very respectful and do excellent work at a fair price. They made sure they finished the job during a very uncertain time (Coronavirus pandemic), which is much appreciated and also made sure they cleaned up everything when they were done. Second time I've used them. Highly recommended."

"The landscape designer provided creative and practical ideas for our outdoor space. We are thrilled with the end result!"

"Robert and his crew did a great job installing new 1400 sq feet of concrete for my backyard in Rowland Heights. The job was done timely, the price was agreed upon, and that what was paid. Very polite and courteous. Very happy customer!"

"David came to my house exactly on time. He brought with him 2 of his workers for the inspection as well. I expected that, no matter what, they'd find something wrong that needed costly fixing. But they were super honest and, after taking a look, told me that I only needed very minimal work and that overall my foundation was fine. Thank you David for your honesty!!"

"We called Green Republic Landscapes and our first contact person Glenda, was both professional and friendly. Motti, the owner came to meet with us and think through the design of the area. He agreed that his workers will be able to remove the day lily, roses, dead sections of the bamboo and all the palm, as well as non-bamboo vegetation among the bamboo from the roots so they would not grow back. We agreed on a redwood wall with a mid section (about 2 feet) of plywood that will be painted black matte to double as a chalk board for our 6-year old; using all redwood would have been more expensive. The gravel will be covered with Angelus pavers with a small pipe underneath to drain any rain water that collects in the patio. We also decided to use the same pavers to cover a 2 feet wide dirt area that ran along the wood wall to make it a seating area. The total cost was $1750 for the vegetation removal, $4500 for the wall and $7500 for the pavers. We were introduced to Melissa, our project manager and Ivan the lead crew member. Everyone was polite and professional. Ivan, however didn't say much and was chronically late so if you work with this team please keep that in mind and refer all issues to Melissa and Motti. The work was completed as agreed and the patio looks really nice. We received our $500 Angie's List discount. However, be aware that you have to inspect the work regularly and hold the work crew accountable. Ivan reported to Melissa that he had completed the job but when we inspected the area the 1) redwood was not treated (he told her he had applied one coat - it was not true); the strip of sand at the edges of the pavers was not sealed either and a simple spray of water scattered the sand edging; and we found palm growing back from stubs he didn't remove (from the root). Melissa had Ivan and his crew come back to remove the redwood, treat it and replace all the planks. He sealed the sand with a glue like substance. He brought a drill to remove the hearts of the palm to "kill" them. The job was corrected quickly but I wish it had been done properly the first time. We are enjoying the area as an additional living space so I'm glad the job is done. However, I just found multiple strands of ivy growing back between the live bamboo and more palm fronds showing where they were supposedly removed so it is frustrating, and the bamboo was so unevenly cut that I've tripped several times walking through the area trying to trim the palm. I'm not sure if I should call Melissa again as we've signed the exit contract. I'd recommend them for their ability to work on both landscape and hardscape and for the responsiveness of the management but know that you'll need to keep an eye on the work crew especially if you are working with Ivan. And don't feel bad to speak up. For the total price, the work was mostly (90%) completed after corrections were requested. I really wanted to like this company as I have several friends who are also looking for team to help with landscaping and paving work. I might refer them with the caveats above. I would hire them again depending on the project."

"They were hired to inspect and fix the foundation in my older home."

"I am very pleased with the work done by Hic builders. Our initial contact was Josef. He came out and gave us a fair price to replace a wood fence, patio cover, and deck. Materials were sourced and brought in without delay despite supply shortages. My dad is a civil engineer and he noted the wood to be of good quality. He and his workers showed up daily, on-time until the project was completed. Every day the work area was left tidy and cleaned up. We live in a townhome. The only access to the backyard is through the front door and living area. His team covered our furniture and flooring. We will definitely call on Hic Builders in the future and recommend others to do the same."
