"Roger and his crew at Brick Creations & Landscaping are fantastic! I’ve used them now for 2 of my homes, a retaining wall, paver driveway & miscellaneous landscaping, and highly recommend. I had multiple quotes for both jobs and felt more confident with this company vs the big ones. They ensure they’re using the right material and explain the process and their recommendations. I am a tough customer to please and they’ve gone above and beyond my expectations each time. I trust they will do a great job and will always come back to them in the future. The crew works incredibly hard and will ensure you’re happy with the results."

"Although it was a little tough to connect in the beginning (due to summer rush and holiday weekend), once Maria and I connected, things went very smoothly.
She came to my house, measured and provided a quote in a very timely manner.  
I had to go through my HOA, and she was quite helpful. Providing the drawings and contacting J.U.L.I.E. as required by the HOA (and even coming out a second time to get additional details requested by the HOA).
We had set a tentative installation date (pending HOA approval) and were lucky that the HOA approval was received in the nick of time and the weather held out.
The crew showed up on time and worked tirelessly all day to complete the job. When they ran out of bricks, they went back out to buy more.  Maria  was there the entire time overseeing the work.  At one point we had an issue with the level of the patio where the base of the steps and the side of the house were out of sync (huge downward slope).  She noted the issue and provided a sound recommendation which I approved. At the end of the day, they cleaned up the entire area.  They had carefully removed sod, mulch and some of my plants to install the brick patio and when they were done installing, they replaced the sod, mulch and even replanted my flowers.  Impressive!!  Everything washed up (even the handprints on the staircase) and clean.  They were also very careful with the surrounding area.  I live in a townhouse and they used wheel barrels to bring in all the materials.  They were careful not to destroy any of the common area.  This is a huge plus and greatly appreciated.  
Overall, it was a very positive experience and I highly recommend LDP.  I love my new patio - even though it is small, it adds a whole new room for me outdoors.  Wish I could add pictures, it turned out great!!"

"Half of their work is very good. The other half is mediocre. They patched, acid etched and coated our 58 year old concrete porch with polymer modified coatings. Less than 6 months later the coating is worn and chipping off. They acid etched and coated the garage floor and said it would probably crack someday. Someday was 3 weeks. They removed the old wrought iron railings and installed new aluminum railings whose angles and placement do not match. They still have not replaced the small railing gate protecting the basement stairs. They installed Unilock Pavers. The pavers are basically level. They were supposed to repair and reinstall our chain link fence gate. They dug out one post and reset it leaning north. The gate was worse than before they started. We had to pay someone else to fix it so that it stays closed. They removed and replaced the asphalt driveway and did an excellent job but we spent 2 weeks with the driveway dug down to the clay with machinery and debris everywhere. The two river rock sections are very well done. They work, when they please. They say “we’ll be here tomorrow” and finally show up days later with increasingly outrageous explanations. This project is not finished and we are very displeased with the quality of the work and the way that Uptime Builders do business."

"The short answer is that they did a fantastic job! 
I had contacted at least 7 different places and none seemed even interested or bothered to offer an estimate of the job. But pretty much from the get-go, these guys were on it, they sent a guy over for an estimate right away, and even in the middle of the busy time, got it taken care of within a couple weeks. 
During one of the storms this summer, a tremendous pine tree that sat  between the front walkway and the corner of the house blew over taking with it the walkway, the corner of the stoop, the stairs not to mention a ton of other stuff. 
After fixing most everything else I tried to find someone to work on the walkway. And like all the other jobs, I'm continually amazed how when I want to give a company my money, they act like they'll get to it when they get to it. 
Paver Care was quick, explained everything, and was patient with all my questions. They sent over 3 hard-working guys exactly at the time they said they would. In literally a half hour they had all the old stones up and were already laying the foundation for the sidewalk. The one gentleman I spoke with seemed to really know what he was talking about and answered all my questions so I let them work. 
I came home from my job and found an absolutely beautiful walkway, they fixed the steps and evened out the surface stones on the patio. They filled in the mortar holes and replaced uneven stones in the patio, and they put in a little retaining wall on the far side of the walkway for a little garden area. It was even designed in a nicer way than I had imagined or explained. They basically made the whole thing look better than when we moved in years ago.
My wife and I couldnt be any happier. They charged a very reasonable amount. And I would call them again in a heartbeat.

"Very happy with Ware's design, service, and execution. We had a bad flooding/standing water situation in our back yard and side of the house, which would pool up and flood even after a small rainfall. Ware designed and installed a passive drainage solution that works very well - even after a heavy rain, for a few days, very little to no pooling. They did a thorough, high quality job."

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

If you don’t backfill a retaining wall—either at all or adequately enough—the wall won’t drain well, and water will be able to pass through it. Poor drainage will lead to a warped wall or a buildup of hydrostatic pressure, which can eventually collapse your retaining wall. If you have particularly sloped land, consult a structural engineer to ensure your hardscaping is adding value to your home.

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

Yes, you can use cinder blocks for many purposes, including retaining walls, foundations, garage walls, and fences. Building a cinder block retaining wall costs between $60 and $200 per linear foot, including materials and professional labor. For a 30-foot-long retaining wall, the cost ranges from $1,800 to $6,000.

If you've decided you'd like to skip the cost of restoring a brick exterior wall after considering whether you should repair or replace brick on your house, you can consider installing fiber cement siding over brick for a cost of $2 to $6 per square foot. When done properly, cement siding over brick offers a durable, low-maintenance option that can actually reduce your home's energy costs. It's also attractive. However, improper installation or installation over heavily compromised brick can cause water damage.
