Joel was prompt for the initial review meeting for the patio work. He listened to my needs and provided great feedback and suggestions. And after talking with a number of concrete contractors, the quoted work was more than fair. at the time of the scheduled work. The crew was respectful, prompt , and fast. It was like watching a colony of ants tackle a task. I have received multiple compliments on the patio work and design. I was so happy with there work that I had them do another project at one of my other places soon after. The house needed some foundation work and the concrete walkway to the front door were sinking in on one side and cracking. Once again the crew was great . Very respectful , on time , and efficient. I would definitely call on this company again .
Description of Work: they added a stamped ,decorative patio in my backyard . And after the excellent and efficient service I had them work one of my other places . They repaired the foundation and rebuilt the walkway from the driveway to the front door of the house.

You would think that installing a concrete driveway would be something anyone could do well, but as we watched Joel and his amazing crew, we came to appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into a really well done job. We opted for troweled joints, because they look so much nicer, and a broom finish. We watched as the experienced crew - obviously used to working together - carefully laid out, filled, leveled, and finished the driveway. The were were very good at the job and obviously proud of their work. The result is a great looking driveway - just the right height and slope for the area - well thought out joint patterns - nicely finished berms and dirt on the sides. Joel was very easy to work with and kept us completely informed of the schedule and any changes due to weather. We highly recommend his company.
Description of Work: Removed long asphalt driveway and installed concrete driveway plus parking pad.

We were very happy with the project and the quality of work. Joel was very professional, is an expert in what he does, and was prompt in his communications (despite a very disorganized and unprofessional landscape designer!). The team arrived promptly on the day we we expected them and got to work immediately, they worked hard and got through the project quickly. One of the things that impressed us most was the design of the retaining wall to end bluntly at the end of our deck overhang - and the team decided to curve it out and build/taper it into the hill just beyond. The result was beautiful and beyond our expectations. This was done at the same cost we were initially quoted. I believe this speaks to their attention to detail and interest in doing what is BEST not just what is required. Would highly recommend and would definitely use ACE again!
Description of Work: Removed and hauled away old railroad tie stairway, stacked bricks (we were keeping), removed old cement landing from garage and removed old wooden landing from walkout basement patio door. Re-shaped landscaping, poured new cement landing pad from walkout basement, built new 3' retaining wall and poured new landing and step from garage.

The team, led by Joel, was prompt, courteous, communicative and hard working. We could not have asked for a better crew and are extremely satisfied with the result. The neighbors also commented on how well the work was done. (The cost listed above reflects the Angie's List discount of $1,000.)
Description of Work: Tore up existing driveway pavers and removed blacktop flooring in garage. Replaced both with concrete. Installed two "catch basins" in front of garage connecting to drainpipe to backyard.

.Joel responded quickly to my request for an estimate and worked with me to develop a workable plan for my budget. He even returned for a follow up visit when I decided to expand the plan somewhat. The work was done relatively quickly and I believe the quality of the work was very good. They did all the work in two day. I observed much of the work because I wanted to ensure that a deep base was installed and properly compacted, and it was. I am very happy with my new driveway and parking area.
Description of Work: Excavate driveway and adjacent parking area, add and compact base material, and install paver driveway and gravel parking area. Also took up and reinstalled older pavers near foundation of home to correct drainage. No concrete was needed for this project.

Joel, the owner, and his team are very professional. Joel met with me multiple times to discuss progress and what needed to be done to do the job correctly. He was not the least expensive bid for this job but was the most thorough. They did not let us down. All work was completed on time and within our budget. One touch that I really appreciated was having Ace return after the driveway had cured to reinstall the electronic dog fence wire that had to be removed. I had thought that I would be doing that myself.
Description of Work: Ace removed and replaced our concrete driveway and garage floor and repaired the concrete block footer foundation.

Everything was great. Joel really impressed me when he came to do the esimate. We've had problems for years with our little back porch shifting in the winter, and he seemed to really understand what needed to be done to fix that. We have not been through a winter yet with the new footings, but I'm confident that the problem will be fixed. When they did the work, everyone on the crew was polite and professional, and worked really hard! The all seemed to take pride in their work and wanted it to be done right. They take great care with details. For example, our house was built in 1919 and has foundation blocks that are no longer commonly available. Joel took the time and effort to find blocks that match for the blocks that needed to be replaced on our back porch. We are getting lots of compliments on the work they've done.
Description of Work: Removed and replaced concrete, including new stairs from the city sidewalk to our sidewalk, front and back stairs to the house, sidewalk around the house, new patio, new footings under a small back porch. In addition, they installed the hardscape for a new rain garden, including the pipe that leads from our downspout on our gutter underground to a new small retaining wall at one end of the rain garden. The also installed new stone edging around our lawn.
We were very pleased with his services. He was professional; he had a very friendly crew. He followed up with us twice after the job was done. Joel personally was the one who came to scrub and seal the driveway upon completion. He was on sight throughout the whole project. His work was so impressive that our neighbors hired him to do similar jobs.
Description of Work: Joel installed a new concrete driveway with paver edging, a paver sidewalk and paver front steps.
