"Make sure you ask questions. After getting a clear understandable explanation of why and what they were doing, I felt I was getting my money's worth. They were a bit pricey. Workers were prompt, courteous and were careful of our property."

"I heard about Prestige Landscaping through peers, so I decided to check them out. Although I was able to complete my project without any of their physical labor, I did call them and ask multiple questions and they did not hesitate to help. I would definitely recommend their services to whoever is looking for dedicated/high quality work!"

"Over the years, Josh has done multiple sodding projects for me and my wife. Because he has always done an exceptional job at sodding, we decided to give him a go at installing a retaining wall to create a raised garden. Again, they did a fantastic job at that project and we asked Josh to remove and replace a broken slab at the rear of our house. Tyler, an exceptional foreman, along with James and Austin, two incredibly talented and conscientious men, removed the old slab, cleaned and prepped the area and installed a new slab (including rebar - a forgotten and important piece of any concrete work, especially in an area such as Iowa,) as well as a stone border of a backyard garden, all virtually within 2 days. When they left, they had groomed the entire area, seeded the exposed areas, assisted my wife with adding and leveling dirt, removed all their trash-and mine as well. Great job, and thank you, Austin, James, Tyler and Josh."

"I called the company in August, left a message, and recieved no reply. I Called again in October and they came out the next day.
The main problem was that they overestimated the area of my roof. I have a 28 square roof (2800 square-feet). They said i have a 35 and one-third square roof.  Companies charge between $200 and $300 per square, so this is a large difference.
I went with Affordable Pro Roofing which used 31 squares (28 squares + 10% waste) at a cost of $6000, which was $2000 less than EJs estimate.

Masonry questions, answered by experts

In Allison, repairing masonry—such as tuckpointing or sealing minor cracks—is usually more cost-effective for small issues. However, if you notice extensive damage from freeze-thaw cycles or shifting soils, replacement may be necessary for long-term stability. Consult with a local masonry specialist to assess the extent of the damage and discuss whether repair or replacement will provide the most reliable results for your home.

Helpful?

Allison homeowners can choose eco-friendly masonry options like reclaimed bricks from local demolition projects or regionally sourced limestone. Consider permeable pavers for driveways and patios to help with stormwater management. Insulated concrete forms and advanced masonry insulation systems can improve energy efficiency. Ask local contractors about sourcing sustainable materials and incorporating energy-saving techniques into your project for a greener home.

Helpful?

In Allison, you’ll find general masonry contractors who manage brick, stone, and block projects, as well as specialists in bricklaying, stone veneer installation, and concrete block construction. Chimney and fireplace experts handle repairs and rebuilds, while hardscape contractors focus on patios, retaining walls, and walkways. For best results, ask contractors about their experience with local soil and weather conditions before hiring.

Helpful?

In Allison, homeowners often overlook the importance of using the right mortar mix for local freeze-thaw cycles and fail to ensure proper drainage around masonry structures. Starting projects during cold weather without adequate protection or not digging foundations below the frost line can cause long-term issues. Always verify contractor credentials and confirm that all necessary permits are secured before work begins.

Helpful?

For masonry work in Allison, monitor weather closely, as wind and cold can affect safety and material performance. Use wind-rated scaffolding, wear protective gear like dust masks and safety glasses, and practice safe lifting. Before digging, always confirm the location of underground utilities. Be mindful of the area’s clay soil and follow all local building safety requirements to prevent accidents and ensure a successful project.
