"Drive way was compacted and over grown with grass, weeds, and allowing water into the garage. Had a hill on one side of the house lower against the foundation, getting water in basement. Needed a patio to replace the rotted deck and allow my dog run. Did a great job, hired to rejuvenate and gravel driveway which looks awesome, remove hill along side of house place dirt against house and leave a swell between property to not cause an issue for my neighbor, much dryer in the basement, removed what was left of my rotted deck to put in a patio sloped away from the house. Was too hot for me but they showed up and got everything done quicker than I thought it would be. Very happy I was able to hire them"

"Original project was estimated with removing existing fence posts (18 total), leveling to proper fence height, pouring cement to set repositioned post, and replacing broken gate hinges. Estimate provided by Eli. When A&E arrived and started removing first couple of posts, Eli?s father, most experienced member of crew, noticed the existing post cement had not heaved. So he felt removing existing posts was not necessary. Instead he recommended pounding the posts back down into existing concrete until level and drilling holes in posts to allow new concrete to create more of an anchor to keep them from sliding out of concrete base. This eliminated a lot of manual work and lessened damage to yard. I thought this was a good idea and thought the cost of the job would reflect a lesser amount since this cut the total job time more than half. Instead they did not adjust the bill accordingly. I would expect a company to treat their customers fairly and not overcharge when the planned work changes without the customer complaining or requesting such. Instead I ended paying the original estimate ($1,400), which equates to approx. $150 / hour (crew of 3), plus materials. Total job completed in 2.5 - 3 hours, which was great. I think this was extremely high for 1 highly skill worker and 2 apprentices. I gave A&E 4 stars because they did do a good job. Fence looks great. I just feel like it should have been a little less $ for the amount of work they ended up having to do. I did examine the original estimate and it only stated leveling the fence, no specifics on how this was to be done. But verbally it was understood they would have to dig out new fence posts, re-level and re-cement. Lessons learned on my part?get a detailed contract and if the actual work deviates, then adjust final bill."

"Great tree removal team.These guys were fantastic and super efficient. They came out to our house to look at a large tree we wanted to cut down. They were informative about the process and time. The next day they came on time and cut our tree. The whole process was smooth and I would definitely hire them again."

"In both spoken and written communication, this company was extremely professional. In the end they were a few thousand dollars higher in their estimate than the company I went with. If not for that I would have gone with EJS and I wouldn't hesitate to mention them to friends and family. I wanted to give them a good review here simply due to the level of courtesy, promptness, and professionalism they displayed.

"They stopped by and offered their snow-removal service, and I’m so glad I said yes. They did an excellent job clearing every bit of snow and even took the extra step to salt my sidewalk. Their prices are truly affordable, and the men were incredibly friendly and professional. I highly recommend them if you want fast, thorough, and dependable service!"

Snow Removal questions, answered by experts

A common mistake is you can let snow melt naturally in a window well. However, snow buildup in the well can damage your window frames and walls. The melting snow also poses risks of water damage as it may leak through into the basement. It’s important to shovel snow out of your window wells before too much snow is piled in there.

It is not advisable to use salt on your roof to prevent or remove ice dams. It’s not only mostly ineffective but can also cause serious damage to your roof itself. Salt can rust metal, damage masonry, pit shingles, and cause runoff that’s damaging to plants and animals. 

Before firing up your snowblower, ensure that essential switches are in the correct starting position. Take a moment to double-check the throttle, fuel shut-off, and choke, ensuring they're firmly set to the "on" position. Precision in verifying each switch's alignment is crucial, so don't rush through this critical step.

Heavy amounts of snow could be a problem. In many climates, lots of snow on your rooftop can lead to freeze-thaw cycle that create ice dams, which can damage rooftops. But if you’re using shingle clips, this snow poses an additional problem: As it melts and freezes, it can easily dislodge clips you’ve placed on your roof.

You can clean snow off your roof after a fresh snowfall while it’s still lightweight, but brushing off snow can also dislodge your clips. If you get a lot of snow, then roof clips become less viable.

In most cases, it’s worth it to pay for professional snow removal. You can shovel the snow yourself, but it’s very labor-intensive and puts you at risk of injury or illness by performing exhausting manual labor in slippery conditions. Paying a professional removes that risk and saves you time and energy. Depending on your agreement, you could wake up to a cleared driveway and a car that’s ready to drive rather than have to get up early to do the work yourself.
