"We contracted with this company to add stone to our driveway.
Gave them 1/2 the fee in advance. They never showed up. They won't return my calls or my messages or my emails.
Probably get into a law suit.

Our penetrating sealant completely eliminates the effort & expense of frequent washing and top coats for your wood and concrete surfaces. We stand by our work with a 25 year warranty against splitting, cracking, warping & rotting wood and pitting, cracking and spalling concrete. On top of that, all sealed wood and concrete surfaces stay cleaner longer, as our process limits fungal growth. We do not build or repair decks, fences, pergolas, patios or driveways (but can refer you to contractors that do) if using our service to protect those structures.

"They did an incredible job, and exceeded our expectations. Our fireplace is truly a work of art! Not only was the price reasonable, but the workmanship is perfection. You can tell they take great pride in their work. They were great to work with, and we already have other jobs in mind. I wouldn’t want to work with another mason - given the value, work ethic, customer service, and finished project. It was a pleasure working with them! Highly recommend!"

"Jeff Mclawhorn did construction to my business without getting the correct permits. Luckily, it ended up working out in my favor. When I had him do lighting work for me, he took the money and never completed the work. He disappeared for months, swore to send me a check for reimbursement for the work that was paid for and then disappeared. He never provided written quotes or receipts for work, and requested payment be made in cash. Avoid at all costs."

Patios questions, answered by experts
When hiring a concrete contractor, you should seek someone with proven experience, proper licensing, and insurance. You should also check reviews online, talk to references, and view past project photos. Remember that reliable contractors communicate openly and have an expert understanding of local building codes. You’ll also want to ensure that the contractor specializes in the specific type of concrete work you want, whether a driveway or tinted concrete flooring.
Stepping stones should match an average human stride, so the general rule is to place them about 24 inches between stones. However, many designs put stones closer together. If you choose to plant in between them, leave at least 6 to 8 inches between stones to give plants room to grow.
The size of your driveway apron will vary based on your town's building codes. On average, they range between 12 and 24 feet wide and eight to 15 feet long. One end of the apron usually matches the width of the driveway—10 to 12 feet wide for a single-car driveway—while the street end flares out to allow cars to turn in and out.
The average patio takes anywhere from 30 to 50 hours to build, including leveling the ground and paving the patio. If you’re doing the work yourself, you might want to plan on spending significantly more time, especially if you don’t have all the equipment or experience. After completing your patio build, consider hiring a pro to prepare the patio for spring.
It’s possible to pour concrete if the temperatures are expected to dip below freezing at night, but you need to take some special precautions before you do. Most importantly, you need to make sure your concrete won’t freeze, so the best thing to do is enclose the area and heat it. You should also make sure you’re using cold-weather concrete that’s designed for pouring in cold weather. Use accelerants to help speed up the curing process and avoid cold temperatures from resulting in weak concrete.
