"Had a small concrete job that needed finishing (minor rebar tying and concrete then the concrete mixing/pouring) - and while the weather was good. Anderson was really quick to communicate, and able to give an initial estimate via multiple photos - then followed up with a site visit to confirm. He was able to schedule the job quicker than expected due to finishing another project early, and he (and a helper) worked until nearly dark to finish. They were friendly, hardworking and respectful - leaving the job site as clean as they found it, with only minor clarifications required."
"Cooper paving did a great job with my driveway. They were professional from start to finish. I'd recommend Cooper paving for anyone looking to have their driveway done."
"We just recently had our driveway paved by Asphalt Engineering and we are posting this review for one simple reason....the job came out PERFECT. Both crews, the first crew and the second crew, were absolute professionals in what they did. Know this...they are the real deal!"
"Went extremely well. Workers Started early in the morning and finished before I got home from work. The driveway looks perfect; they made the edging straight and clean and no mess!"
"Leo of M&L Landscaping and Construction took a look at the job and knew it wasn’t going to be easy. He quoted and we ultimately agreed to go forward. I provided a down payment and about a week later he and his team arrived on site, manually excavated holes to pour concrete piers and poured the concrete. After cure time, his team installed Lally columns and necessary supporting beams and the job was done. Leo’s team stayed on task and were very committed to finishing the job professionally. Great, hard-working team and very professional."

"We had a concrete patio that was riddled with cracks and upheavals. E.A masonry did a wonderful job. They removed the old patio and put in a completely new one. They were very professional, as well as courteous. They cleaned up everything. I would hire these gentlemen again and I would recommend them to friends and neighbors thank you"
"This is a highly skilled team - professional, courteous and friendly. They did everything they promised on time, before deadline and beautifully. Daily communications and check ins to make sure the work was satisfactory and always left the place neat and tidy. They designed a new outdoor patio, front walkway, new driveway, put in a drainage system and finished off with mulch. I highly recommend this company!"
"We hired Jose and his team to pour a concrete slab for a hot tub, install a ~400 square foot patio, and install a walkway along the side of our house, as he had come highly recommended from folks in our neighborhood. Jose was very communicative during the planning to make sure we landed on the best design, he stated a timeline for the project completion and stuck to the timeline, and the patio and walkway look fantastic. It's made our backyard much more enjoyable and looks great. We also found the prices very reasonable as well, with the walkway, path, and concrete pad costing less than some contractors were quoting for the patio alone."
It is generally not recommended to use dish soap in a pressure washer. Dishwashing liquid is formulated for cooler water, and the warmer water used in a pressure washer can create excessive suds, potentially damaging the machine's tubing and other components. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions for recommended detergents. If you find yourself in a pinch, you can try a highly diluted solution, such as one tablespoon of dish soap per 1.5 quarts of water, to avoid clogging the machine.
Yes, it is advisable to prime a driveway before painting. Primer serves as a preparatory step, promoting better paint adhesion to the surface, enhancing durability, and ensuring a smoother, more even finish. Priming is essential for concrete driveways as they are porous and absorb paint unevenly without proper priming. Skipping this step may result in a less durable and less aesthetically pleasing paint job, requiring more frequent repainting.
If you’re using water pressure above 2,000 PSI, you should wear a full face shield—at 4,000 PSI, a water jet can easily slice through skin. Always wear heavy-duty, waterproof gloves and rubber boots with metatarsal guards. If you’re working with hot water, make sure your gloves are insulated.
A pressure washer’s size or power is measured in pounds per square inch (PSI). The amount of pressure you need will depend on your project and the material you’re washing, but consumer pressure washers range from 500 to 2,400 PSI. Porous materials like brick and stucco should not be blasted with anything stronger than 1,000 PSI, while you can use a PSI of up to 2,400 to clean a vinyl fence.
Whether you need to winterize your pressure washer depends on where you store it. If you can keep it in a relatively warm place with no risk of freezing, you won't need to add antifreeze. However, if the machine will be stored in freezing temperatures, any liquid left in the water pump can freeze, expand, and cause severe damage. To prevent this, add antifreeze to keep it in good condition. While some suggest emptying the machine with compressed air, this can be a tedious process that may not fully drain the liquid. Regardless of storage conditions, it is also good practice to empty the gas chamber and refresh the oil before winter storage.
