Gibson's Grading And Construction

"The road was a wreck, most ditches were clogged and most culverts was clogged. What made matters worse it rained everyday. I went in clenaed all ditches out,cleaned out culverts,smoothed road an crowned road to divert watershed. then hauled in roadbond. the process took 3 weeks to complete, mostly because of the rain. Micheal and the residents of log gap road was very patient and alowed me take my time to insure everything was like it should be. I look forward to working with this member in the future."

"I enjoyed helping with his project. The drive in front was steep and the underlaying gravel was gone. We smoothed everything out and put down heavy layer of roadbond and compacted. We also mowed his field. i look froward to working with the customer in future"

"The driveway was a mess, it was really soft going up hill and the water did not drain correctly which was causing bad erosion. i did not want to use my heavy equipment so i used my tractor and spent 1 day prepping the drive, cleaning ditches, make sure all waterflow went to ditches. the second day he wanted me to haul topsoil, so i hauled 2 loads of soil. he did not like the soil which i thought was odd because i have hauled 100's of yards of this topsoil to build new yards and the soil worked great! the 3rd day i hauled gravel and we spread the gravel and made sure he was happy with the results which he was. i went ahead and fixed the steps that was loose on his house and cleaned out a area where he wanted to make a yard! As far as the time spent versus cost the amount of work and material involved i gave him a accurate price as well as the labor,hauling and tractor work.Most of the time when i bid a job half the cost of the job is material.I m upfront with my cost with materials and labor so all my customers know what they pay for! i enjoyed working with him and i look forward to working with him in the future."

"The old wall was in very bad shape and really rotten. we tore it out and installed 6x6 timbers. this more sturdy than the old landscape wall. i enjoyed orking with her on her project and i look forward to doing more projects for her in the future"

"we enjoyed working with the member on her project. the foundation was in good shape but we found a few issues that we fixed and installed a new drain so water can go away from house. i look forward to working with her in the future"

"the sliding glass doors was not working due to being installed wrong. i went in and resquared all the doors and fixed them so they would work like they should. it was a pleasure working with the member and i look forward to working for her again in the future"

"I really Enjoyed Working With the members. The driveway really needed to be fixed and it was muddy. It needed to be wider in order to fit 2 cars in the drive,we went in and made the drive wider in order to be able to park two cars. I noticed the roof had a issue and i had extra material onhand to fix this so i got on the roof and fix the reas, caulked around the vent boots, and reattached the loose smokestack. I did not mind fixing this for them because i did not want them have a leaking issue. I look forward to working with the members on future projects thank you for letting us do this work for you."

"I enjoyed working with these customers. I found the source of the leak,where the foundation stepped down,water had been leaking in that area so we sealed the area and applied foundation coating and installed new drain system. The small landing they had was not working to well so i know they wanted a new porch, so i did a combo price on both projects because i know they really wanted a new porch. i look forward to working with them in the future on other projects"

"the water that was coming out of the ground and going on his drive was a lot. This was creating a dangerous icy condition when the temp was at freezing.I found the location and it was a spring that had a lot of water coming out and causing the issue.we regraded the side of the drive and installed a french drain to divert water flow. The whole project worked well and i enjoyed working with the member on his project and i look forward to working with him on future projects."

"The foundation needed attention pretty quickly. inside the basement wall there was 2 cracks and this was going to be a issue. One thing alarmed me was the fact that there was cracks when the cores was filled and everything was solid. I told the customer that i worked in the development 9-10 years ago when the houses was being built and all the foundations was above code even to todays standard. once we got started the rea was so wet and muddy it was putting huge pressure on the foundation. we sealed the cracks in the basement and built 3 piers and bolted them to foundation for extra support. we seal coated the foundation, installed new drain and compacted. The job went well, the first 2 days was cold,but it did not effect the job. I enjoyed working with her on her project and i will be going back the first part of February and paint the outside of her house and paint her kitchen."

"I enjoyed working with this customer, i was very surprised when i was was digging out for the french drain i ran into 2 cooperhead snakes. they was mad and striking at me but i took care of them because it posed a danger to her. She was getting minor water leak in her basement, i found the location and installed a new drain system and went inside the basement and sealed the cracks. I look forward to working with her in the future."

"I enjoyed working with Member on her project. When I meet with her to go over the scope of the project the foundation of her house inside the basement was not in good shape. The retaining wall was 4 inch block and was holding back the earth. But there was a major issue the main foundation and footer of the house was setting close to the retaining wall and was on the verge of collapsing. Thus would have caused the main frame of the house to shift and cause major frame damage to the house. We both talked about what needed to be done. Member was really concerned because of the time frame so I coordinated part of my crew to her job to address this. My crew installed 5/8 rebar then laid 8 inch block. Then once done they filled cores with high strength concrete with fiber mesh for increased strength. Once that part was completed me and my dad worked in the front. We found at one corner of the house where water had went under the footer of the house . We fixed that issue then installed a French drain around the front and one side of the house. The there was 2 exposed gutters so we attached pipe to the gutter down spouts and rerouted them away from house. Then the last part we regarded a small section of the front to divert any water shed away from house. This was a expensive job to do, but the foundation of the house was at a critical stage and we had to act quick and I had to use the best and strongest material. Member was understanding to this even thou I was not the lowest bid she got. But even thou I was not the lowest bidder we made sure to deliver the highest quality of work and highest quality of material and to quickly resolve her foundation problem before it reached critical mass. I wanted to make sure Member would never have to worry about her foundation giving her a issue again. I look forward to working with her in the future on her future projects"

"His floor was really bowing pretty bad, me and my crew came up with a plan to fix this issue.They installed beams plus piers to shore up and level the floor.Plus we had extra block left over so i had my crew build small wall in the basement. I enjoyed working with Member and i look forward to working with him in the future"

"The reason it took longer is the fact i found major issues that needed to be resolved, plus i spent 2 hours in the morning running down material.then approx 6 hours on the jobsite. Some of the 4x4s wa really bad rotten and i di not think she wanted them. it was probley a misunderstanding. Even thou it took me longer to complete i wanted to make sure everything was correct and up to code. I do my best to make sure i fit all my client's budget, the extra cost to do this project covered the extra materials. i enjoy working with vanessa and ronnie, it is a real pleasure to work with them on projects"
