Richard and his team installed a paver patio for us, I would highly recommend Strata Earthworks. They were able to complete the job in a timely manner and very professional. I contacted several other companies in the area, and Strata was by far the best choice. Awesome job!!!!

I highly recommend Richard, and his expert staff at Strata Earthworks! Superlative in every way-their process for our patio is scientifically sound and engineered for maximum safety, water control (the angles are designed with runoff in mind- someone would not have thought of!), the material used including between tge pavers is designed to avoid cracks and weeds- the finished product is beautiful and usable. Working with Richard was professional, informative and his staff were expert and cared so much about their quality of work. It was a pleasure from beginning to end - included the cost! Highly recommend this company!!

Richard and his crew did the work when they said they would for the price quoted. They did a great job to solve my drainage issues on my property. We recently had heavy rains and the drainage system did what it was supposed to do.

Richard and his crew installed a gravel driveway and did some drainage work at the home house (installed sump pump and PVC). The job was completed ahead of schedule, he and his crew were great to work with and they went the extra mile. I would 100% recommend to anyone needing work done to their home.

Richard and Strata did a phenomenal job in a timely and extremely professional manner. We couldn't be happier with our new patio. Highly recommend the company. I only wish they would open an auto repair division.

Although agreed to a set price beforehand. He admitted he should have taken a closer look. Charged me another 300 dollars for gravel, and tried another 200 to compact with machine. My opinion is not favorable and I will not use them again.
Response from Strata Earthworks
"This is our first negative review, as unfortunate as that is, but mostly because of the misunderstood and unwarranted nature of it, which makes it exceptionally difficult to accept. So, for a background: The customer had a raised front porch slab that had sunken 1-2" in areas, due to poor/ NO soil (loose mortar sand) compaction. We quoted the removal and replacement of the porch slab, to include expansion material along the brick perimeter (none previously present), 1-2 tons of compacted fill dirt import (based on the amount of surface displacement in the slab x 2.) However, upon removal of the sunken slab, we found a much deeper 8" deep void throughout, and the slab along the outer 3 porch walls was literally suspended on the inner brick wall, but the slab along the house wall was unsupported, and this is where it was sunken max. 2" below original grade. When my installer text me the pictures showing measurements of the deep void, I immediately contacted the customer and explained our findings, sent him a picture, and asked if he could step outside and see it for himself, as I was away hauling materials but would be back shortly. I suggested that we use crushed gravel instead of dirt, and gave him a price of $300 to purchase, haul, place (via shovel), and compact 4 tons of crushed gravel. Our cost for the gravel was $120, so I was charging him $180 to haul the 4 tons of gravel, and the 3 workers to shovel it into the raised porch and compact it (which took most of a day). He agreed to the $300. However, when I returned with the gravel and saw the loose, soft, mortar sand in the porch, I decided to check existing compaction with a probe rod and it went to the handle with very little effort. I thought about it, and then contacted the customer and suggested that we rent a "Jumping Jack" trench compactor to compact the 2.5' of loose fill with it, prior to placing gravel, as our plate compactors for concrete and pavers are not designed to compact 2.5' of soil. I explained that we could rent and pick up the jumping jack, use it, and return it, for $200 (rental is $120).. In understanding that this was an unforeseen subsurface surprise, and nobody wants surprises with construction projects of necessity, I certainly had no intention of taking advantage of the situation, and I thought I was helping, give the circumstances, when I offered to rent the JJ and place the gravel for $500, but instead I received a very curt text that he would opt out of the jj rental, but agree to the gravel, which was completely his choice, and merely a suggestion. Other than that, we installed the porch slab, which came out very nicely.( Before/After pics posted on our page, for your viewing.) Given the misrepresented/ misunderstood comments about our text conversation, I called (N/A), then emailed hoping to better explain that there was just no way to account for all the gravel when pricing the job. Considering that he's a previous General Contractor he, if anyone should understand that such situations require a change order for additional work. I also tried to explain how he had misrepresented what I told him about not having seen the void for myself, until I arrived with the gravel, he took as something completely different, but he still won't acknowledge that he may have misread the situation, and add to this whole unfortunate situation, that the job came out great, and he was quoted a very fair price, yet he gave us a 2.5 quality?? and 2.0 for value?? (Pics posted here on our HA site.) I truly am shocked with this customers reaction, but I suppose eventually, we will all run across someone extremely mistrusting, or who prematurely jumps to a conclusion. As for Strata, we plan to continue, to perform quality work, at a fair price, for great Wilmington area customers... and perhaps correspond less via text, just to better clarify, discuss, and avoid any potential misunderstanding's."

Richard arrived when he said he would and his crew worked hard & completed the project on time. The project involved replacing a damaged concrete walkway and creating a patio.

A portion of my driveway was raised because of a large tree root. This was a trip & fall hazard. Strata removed the three sections & replaced them. Richard & his crew were very polite & professional. I took videos & photos of the process if anyone cares to see them. I highly recommend Strata!

Richard, the owner, supervised the entire job very carefully. He inspected and approved all the steps to completion. Before the workers began, he discussed thoroughly all the steps to completion of the job to our satisfaction. We would definitely recommend him as someone who does excellent work.

Rich and his crew did an excellent job extending our patio. They moved the Zoysia sod to where I needed it in the yard so it didn't get wasted. They prepared the 15 X 14ft site and poured the same day which made us happy to get it done quickly before the weather turned cold and rainy again. I'll use them again when I need concrete poured.

Richard and his crew were pleasant and professional. They created a driveway in the shape we desired and gave careful attention to our primary concern of handling heavy rains. They were patient with changes made early on and provided guidance based on their years of experience. We are thrilled with the driveway -- excellent drainage and ease of getting cars in and out of our new parking area.

First off I have to say I was very impressed the first time I meet Richard and the way he presented himself. I gave him the details of the job I wanted and they went way beyond my expectations.. They completed the job on time and made sure everything was cleaned up afterwards. Would definitely recommend and use him again.

Richard is extremely knowledgeable and capable at solving drainage problems. Great to work with, helpful and concerned about my problem. He listens and is able to articulate what his plan is without going over my head. His guys are earnest and on time, they took care of my problem temporarily and it worked just fine. My work isn't finished yet but he went out of his way to make sure my house was dry during the hurricane spell we had.

They were able to do the work sooner than originally expected and had to work on and off because of all the rain we ended up getting. They were more than willing to except changes we had during the process. They also let us know when they were coming to do the work and keep us up to date with what was next. Work was finished in a quick manner and they cleaned up after themselves.
