Great service for a great price. Really profesional and helpful. I really recommend PURUS POOL SERVICE.
"Not much to say, everything was just perfect for me. Since they appeared to the end of project guys were organized and they knew what to do. Owner of business - Wojtek is really good with communication and ready to help and advise everything you need about your project."
"Noe showed up immediately, no questions asked and did service at reasonable price, cleaned gutters, and the downspouts completely at a time in which we had overflowing gutters and water in the basement. He was communicative, clean, and I look forward to long relationship with him and his company."
"My first experience with Pavercare told me that we would be life long customers! We have a 1,200 square foot patio of concreate with brick insets. Prior contractors we had used didn't do any better than we had on our own using bleach and our powerwasher. The gentleman that arrived, Gaspar, was punctual, kind, and professional. Not only did he perform the service but also pulled out weeds along our patio that I hadn't had a chance to get to. Our patio never looked better... he literally made the concrete and brick look new! Not only did he do the cleaning, but also set our patio back up (we had moved our grill, table, chairs out of his way)! Talk about service above and beyond! The final touch was that he closed our gate to our backyard when he left... might not seem like much, but you'd be surprised how many contractors just leave and don't bother to close a gate...
The price was literally half of what we had been charged by other so-called concrete professionals. I will definitely use Pavercare again and again!
"In 2017, when I was looking to purchase a house in the Rockford area that was needing a full siding install I contacted GF Company in Belvidere. IL, who I found on Angie’s list and at that time GF Co had great reviews. Strangely enough these great reviews are no longer to be found on Angie’s List. It should also be noted there is a GF Siding in Cherry Valley. IL, this is Not the company that I did business with. Ariel Zmijewski (the owner) got me a quote quickly and I decided to purchase the house. A few months later in July 2017, I contacted Ariel again to discuss the finer points of the quote, the price was revised slightly and the Ariel mentioned that once a deposit was paid work could start 6-8 weeks later, but said the install would be finished before the cold weather arrived. I started creating a color layout and Ariel provided some feedback on what would work and not work. To this point I was very happy with progress. In September 2017 I paid a deposit of over $8k (about 44% of final price) and awaited updates for a start date. Nothing happened. In early March 2018 I contacted GF Co by phone stating that I had been very patient and they had had $8k as a deposit for the last 6 months and I had nothing to show for it. After a couple more calls and emails Ariel showed up with his foreman Mark and they said that work would start in the middle of the following week. Much to my surprise the work started on time. Over the course of the next 4 weeks Mark and his crew worked hard, only missing a few days due to bad weather, I even agreed to having some extra work done by the team, some wooden entrance steps that needed replacing for an additional $2.5k. By early May 2018 the job was finished the house looked great and I was very happy with the work and appearance and was getting compliments from neighbors too. The balance of owed of over $10k was paid with 48 hours of the work being finished. Again I was happy with work done, until… A few months after the install a TV cable box started having troubles. Cut a long story short the wall socket died because cable was suddenly defective, also the crew had moved the exterior cable input box and this didn’t help the issue. Comcast fixed it, but I now have an exterior cable showing and they had to drill through the siding. Then around Halloween 2018, less than six months after having the install completed, I noticed that a piece of siding (6ft approx.) had become detached underneath a window, trying to pop it back into place did not resolve the issue. After checking all the other exterior windows I noticed 1 other window was about to do the same thing. I called the GF Company main number and left a message with the receptionist for Ariel to contact me. No response. I called again a couple of times and left more messages still no response. In March 2019 siding problem under windows still Not fixed, I called GF Company again, no answer, and no voice mail. I called a couple more times on different days still no answer or voice mail. I then sent an email to the company and to my surprise I received a response from Ariel stating this was the first that he had heard of it. About a week later (3/26/19) he showed up at my house to view the problem. Ariel stated that he would get someone over to fix the problem, but would not give me a date or time. On 4/2/19 I emailed Ariel again asking for confirmation of a repair date ? Nothing but crickets… On 4/30/19, I sent another email to Ariel requesting that the repairs be completed before the end of May 2019, again no response. Quote / contract says: Customers will receive a Lifetime Warranty on Material and Workmanship Reported GF Company to Illinois BBB on 6/5/19."
"I called to set up an appointment for someone to come out and give me a quote for siding and roofing for the garage, and siding for the home. Anna answered and took all my info. She had no idea where I was located, or any of the other suburbs I mentioned that where around. In a day and age where you can do a Goggle search for anything, I was surprised she was so baffled on where I lived. She was not sure if they serviced my area or not, and said she will need to talk to Mr. Hansen and that she will call me back. I expected a call the same day. Nope. She called the next day saying she wanted to set up the appointment for Mr. Hansen to come out. She never acknowledge if they will serviced my area or not. The date she wanted to set up I was not available. Due to how far I work, I couldn't do afternoon appointments either. I told her I would be available next Wednesday morning. She set up appointment from 10am-11am for that Wednesday. Then she commented on how far the drive would be. It worried me when Anna mentioned that it was long drive. I felt like I was inconveniencing them because I lived farther away. This is where I started getting bad vibes. Anna then processed to tell me since it was all exterior work, if Mr. Hansen could come when I was not there and take pictures and talk over the phone about project. I told I was flexible and if they wanted to do that it was fine. She then told me that she will call back and let me know if Mr. Hansen was going to do that or come to the appointment. Needless to say, I never got a phone call back. Wednesday comes by and Anna calls me and leaves a message that Mr. Hansen can't make it out due to a roof emergency. I had feeling they wouldn't come since I never got a phone call confirming the appointment. Regardless if it was true or not, I can't say, it just seems that they really don't do too much work out of the city, which is fine and understandable, but be upfront and tell me, "We don't service your area." Please call me back when you say you will. That's all I ask. I am in the service business too, so I tend to be more forgiving than most customer but I am tired of companies not communicating properly. They don't deserve an F, but for me it is straight C's. Fair. Most people are not looking for Fair service... I can't comment on their workmanship. I never made it that far."
"Decided not to do the pressure washing but the company was great- timely and courteous. Assessed our needs and advised another method to be used that would be more efficient."
"I had Roof-to-Deck Restorations clean and stain my wooden deck this spring. I have used them previously and have always been happy with the results. The work is excellent and they have never left a mess. They are very easy to work with as all I have to do is clear the deck of all furniture and send them a check. They do all the rest and I dont have to be home when the work is done. They performed the service in two sessions. One to clean the deck and one to stain it. They have to schedule around weather so the two sessions were about two weeks apart. When they were done they left a bottle of extra stain to remedy tough spots but I have never needed to use it. Overall they perform a good service for reasonable cost. I will use them again. "
DIY is possible, but professional services ensure even removal, safety compliance, and proper cleanup.
The disadvantages of sandblasting are noise, mess, and risk. Sandblasters are louder than chainsaws and spread debris on the ground and through the air. Let your neighbors know that you're sandblasting so they can prepare. Sandblasting can damage your property if not done properly, so thoroughly vet any pros you talk to before hiring.
Sandblasting refers to the process of cleaning a surface using compressed air and aggregate. Soda blasting is the gentlest type of this method, but it differs from sandblasting that uses mineral or other aggregate, since sodium bicarbonate breaks apart more easily than other forms of blast media and, therefore, cannot be reused.
Costs depend on surface material, labor, debris disposal, and the type of blasting media used.
You can concrete can be done when it’s wet or dry. However, it’s safer when wet, as harmful dust and chemicals are present. Sanding it when dry is faster, but you’ll agitate more dust and chemicals, meaning you’ll need to be more careful.
