Chad and his team did a great job. Neat operation turning concrete into what looks like a rock/stone edging colored to meet the customer's preference. Prevents weeds and grass from growing through unlike regular rocks.

It could have not gone better. The team showed up on time worked hard and got the job done on-time and on budget despite some other major construction projects going on in the neighborhood.

Chad and his team were awesome. They completed what was thought to be a long, difficult project in under a week. We had a multi-level retaining wall built and could not be more pleased! His team were not only friendly, but they were also knowledgeable in the product and the project. Very professional, and they left the job site as they found it. No debris, no dirt mounds, and a high-quality product. Thanks, Chad!!

A Better Edge did a superb job. Looks fantastic. Then I had Garage Force come in a cover my ramp and tiles with a polyurea and the cpmbination looks amazing. Everyone that has seen the patio like the results.

Chad and A Better Edge were amazing. The primary job was to replace a crumbling retaining wall comprised of stacked stone boulders. Other contractors wanted to bring in heavy machinery to remove the old rock and bring in a fresh load of stackable stones, this was expensive and would tear up the lawn. Chad said they could pump concrete via hose or wheel barrow down the hill, and use the existing rock as fill. He saved me a bunch of money, didn't damage the grass at all, and provided a much better finished product. With the savings on the wall we decided to add a back patio to the house and an additional round fire pit patio in the back yard. Every bit of work they did was top notch. Ernie's work on carving the faux-stones out of concrete on the wall was a work of art that greatly exceeded our expectations. Already recommended to co-workers who have hired Chad and also been very happy with the work performed.

This was an extremely large job but Chad and Ernie handled it like champs. They tore out the old tile, which created a massive amount of dust, which they minimized with plastic sheeting as best they could. They had to pour a base floor to make it level and then worked their magic in putting down the new floor. Initially Ernie showed us a sample that we liked, but their first try didn't look like what they had shown us, so we explained what we really wanted and they got on their hands and knees to wash the various colors into the floor. Their customer service was exceptional. They always arrived on time, we're professional and friendly throughout the entire project. Now two years later we are still so happy with our low maintenance beautiful floor and get many compliments on it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend A Better Edge to anyone looking to have a unique interior floor put in.

Absolutely first rate, quality work done on time and on budget. I used A BETTER EDGE for another project a few years ago after interviewing several contractors. Chad is very impressive and knows his craft. for my latest project, there was no question and I didn't even need to look for any other bids...I went straight to Chad at A BETTER EDGE!
Honesty and integrity are hallmarks of their work, not to mention the very fair pricing.
You will not be disappointed!!

We had A Better Edge install edging at our home about 8-10 years ago. In preparation for installing artificial grass we had Chad and his crews come back out to help design extending the existing edging out to the front sidewalk. We needed to break the existing edging to extend the new edge to create 2 new rock areas plus pour a new stamped concrete pathway and bench patio. In addition they cleaned our existing edging and stamped concrete patio by the front porch and resealed everything. Due to the weather our turf install took additional time but they had worked with Chad at A Better Edge before so they coordinated all their work together. Chad's crews adapted to the compressed schedule and got the job done. The results are outstanding. I have people stopping or walking by now asking who did the edging work. I am always proud to answer "A Better Edge"! They didn't let us down 8-10 years ago and they tied all the new work in with that for a spectacular result.

The entire project went exceptionally well. Everything was completed as planned -- on schedule, on-budget, and exactly what was discussed and planned for.
The crew was on-site for 3 full days of works. The crew was exceptionally professional, committed to a superior job, and maintained a very clean, safe, and organized job site. Execution of the work was clearly well planned and performed to a high standard and with great attention to detail.
The owner, Chad, was instrumental to the success of the project. His expert advice added depth to the overall solution without expanding the scope -- meaning, Chad's technical expertise and professionalism identified and eliminated several "short cuts" to ensure the structural integrity of the final solution without increasing cost. (exactly what you expect from a professional)
I would bring A Better Edge back to my next project without hesitation and with full confidence of a good deal with exceptional performance!

Concrete edging was poured in our front yard and back yard, approximately 225 linear feet. This is the second house we've had edging done by A Better Edge Landscaping & Lawn & Garden Edging. I would highly recommend edging by A Better Edge Landscaping & Lawn & Garden Edging.
The patio slab was subcontracted out and the results were good (not great) and we're happy with the results. The patio is stamped and stained, looks good.

Most recently we had them back to consult on revising our landscaping to accommodate artificial grass. Their ideas were great and matched our ideas and the quote was reasonable. Thus far we haven't had the work done because we're undecided on the artificial grass. Live in Briargate/Pine Creek area and need to be more comfortable that the artificial grass fits the area standards.

Chad, Ernie and crew were so professional and eager to please. I can't say enough about how nice a job they did on our driveway, front sidewalk, patio and side sidewalk. We had cracks, pock marks and other problems from 20 years of use and abuse. Our concrete now looks like it did when our house was new. I highly recommend "A Better Edge"!
