"Kevan & Drew at Drain Designs were fantastic! First let me say it was refreshing too actually, have someone respond and follow up to a call. I had called several companies/persons but none either responded back or showed up for their appointment. So, I was a pleasantly surprised when Kevan responded to my voicemail and showed up for the scheduled appointment. Water was leaking into my back room from underneath the deck and creating issues. Kevan came out and assessed the problem and devised a solution. Kevan & Drew showed up as assured. The process was explained every step of the way, so I had a very clear understanding of what was being done and why. Both Kevan & Drew were professional, and their work is quality work. I would definitely work with Drain Designs again and would have no issues recommending them to others. You won't be disappointed!"

"03/30/19 I had an addition put on my house in 2016. On Tuesday (03/26/19), I had a problem with the sump pump and contacted North Carolina Exteriors since it’s under warranty for ten years (I have documentation from North Carolina Exteriors verifying this). The young lady that answered the phone told me the pump would only have a one year warranty. Once I told her I had the documentation they gave me with a ten year warranty, she asked me to email what I had to her. I did and the below email exchanges are what followed throughout the week. ___________________________________________________ Tuesday March 26, 2019 2:18 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Good afternoon, XXXXXX. Please see attached documentation for the warranty information. I can be reached at XXX-XXX-XXXX. Regards, XXXXXX *** I sent two documents from North Carolina Exteriors with the warranty information (labor and manufacturer) they gave me when the project was completed. Tuesday March 26, 2019 2:25 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Received, thank you. That is the manufacture warranty, you can contact XXXXX Plumbing INC at 919-XXX-XXXX or the manufacture for the pump that is overflowing. *** she did not include any contact information for the manufacturer, but wanting to move this along, I figured I would just look it up online. Tuesday March 26, 2019 2:34 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] I just called and the gentleman who answered said they wouldn’t have anything to do with it. He also said he is out of the area. My phone says that business number is located in Goldsboro. Could you please call him to find out what’s going on? My pump is exposed and needs to be replaced. I currently can’t use any water. Regards, XXXXXX *** I would have contacted the manufacturer, but by now I have no confidence in anything North Carolina Exteriors is telling me. Tuesday March 26, 2019 2:41 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Look on the pump to determine who the manufacturer is and let me know. *** I suppose this is why she didn’t give me any contact information for the manufacturer earlier. She either didn’t want to bother to look it up – or they don’t have it at all. Tuesday March 26, 2019 2:48 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Here you go. Thanks! *** the attachment included a picture of the plate on the pump with all of the information she needed (company name, model number, serial number, etc.). I also sent a picture of the exposed pump. Tuesday March 26, 2019 3:10 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] We will get a plumber to take a look but it will probably be a few days before we can get someone out there. Tuesday March 26, 2019 3:12 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Was it determined who it is covered by? You guys or Liberty? Tuesday March 26, 2019 3:10 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Liberty makes that determination. Tuesday March 26, 2019 3:25 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] So they said it was you guys and not them? I might have someone who can do the work. I just need contact information for Liberty so they know who to contact once they’ve made an assessment. I also need an updated list of the contact information for the companies responsible for the items listed under “Manufacturer Warranty.” Thanks! *** Received no response to this email, so I emailed them again the next morning. Wednesday March 27, 2019 9:46 AM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Good morning, XXXXXX. I wanted to follow up on our email exchange from yesterday. Please respond to the below questions. 1. Did Liberty state they are not responsible for the 10 year manufacturer warranty? 2. If Liberty stated that they are not responsible for the warranty, does this mean that Carolina Exteriors is responsible until the warranty expires? 3. When can I expect to get a list of the contact information for the companies responsible for the items listed under “Manufacturer Warranty?" 4. I am waiting for a return call from the plumber who I would like to complete the evaluation and repair. Should I not hear back from him by EOB tomorrow, or if his schedule is full, when can I expect someone to come take a look at the pump and how much will it cost? Going forward, please communicate via this email address only. This will ensure I have documentation of our exchanges to help prevent any miscommunications or misunderstandings. I get email alerts directly on my phone and will reply to any received during normal business hours (8:00 AM - 5:00 PM) within the hour. Thank you for your help with this issue. Regards, XXXXXX Wednesday March 27, 2019 10:07 AM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] The owner of the company is out of the office till Monday. When he returns he will meet with a plumber and see what he says. Thanks, Wednesday March 27, 2019 10:27 AM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] XXXXXX, I am sure the owner realizes that I am unable to use any water (shower, restroom, laundry, dishes, etc). His expectation that I wait almost a week just for him to speak to a plumber is unreasonable when he, or someone else, can easily contact a plumber over the phone to get this resolved as soon as possible. Please let him know that, while I am not expecting him or anyone else, to drop everything for this, I do not understand (or appreciate) getting the runaround to the point where I cannot even be given correct information about who is supposed to fix this. It is very disappointing to be treated this way after the completion of the addition. Customer service and good business practices are not supposed to end once construction is completed. Please advise him that I would like a response ASAP to my previous email questions. I am trying to be as proactive and helpful on my part, but I cannot do that without getting the answers I need. Regards, *** Received no response to this email, so I sent another follow-up email. Wednesday March 27, 2019 3:32 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] ADMIN, Please let me know what the status of my previous email is. Regards, CUSTOMER Wednesday March 27, 2019 4:06 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] ms XXXXX I tried to call you and left you a message. I am currently out of town but know you have been emailing the office concerning your issue with your pump. I am sorry you are dealing with this. I want to let you know that the warranty we sent with you was the information we got from liberty at the time. Im not sure if they will warranty the pump or not and happy to look into this when I return back to work on Monday. However, even if they do stand by warranty it will only cover the pump and not any labor to repair. Their warranties only cover the pump itself. I called the plumber who installed this pump and they no longer sell liberty and as they told you I believe liberty would never cover their labor to repair. My advise would be to contact a plumber directly who can service they pump and have them repair and document everything so that when you deal with liberty you can pass this along to them. I will help you deal with liberty when I return. This is not a nc exteriors warranty issue or the plumbers but the manufacturers warranty issue. Again, I will help anyway I can but you will need to call a plumber for repair thanks *** so, here I’m advised to pay out of pocket for everything and rely on them to help me be reimbursed at a later date. If they had given me any accurate information or decent customer service up until this point, I might have done that. At this point, I am communicating with them only through emails because I can’t trust what I’m being told. Wednesday March 27, 2019 4:41 PM From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Thanks for getting back to me, XXXXX. I got Liberty's phone number off the internet and called. The gentleman I s"

Pavers and Hardscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, flagstone is more expensive than pavers, but natural stone lasts longer and has a unique aesthetic appeal that pavers can't match. It is important to make the distinction that flagstone can be different from flagstone pavers. Some pavers are flagstone pavers, and some are not. Flagstone can be uniformly cut and set like pavers or retain the stone’s original shape.

Yes, you can use a Dremel to cut pavers, but you’ll need a masonry cut-off wheel and a Dremel that accepts a 3 1/2-inch cutting wheel. Slowly run the masonry cut-off wheel along your cut line, and then continue making shallow passes. Once the cut is about 1/8 inch deep, you can drive a chisel into the center of it to complete the cut.

A paved driveway adds $5,000 to $7,000 to the value of your home. That’s because it increases your curb appeal and the functionality of your outdoor space, which appeals to potential buyers.

You can use regular sand as the base for your pavers and in between pavers to seal the joints. Many pros reach for polymeric sand, also known as all-purpose sand, because it has been sifted and washed to remove impurities. But you can easily level ground and fill gaps between pavers for a clean look using regular sand, sometimes at a lower cost.

The cost depends on the type of natural stone. High-end stones can cost as much as porcelain, but it depends on the specific material. For example, the cost of flagstone pavers is typically $2 to $6 per square foot, which is much more budget-friendly than porcelain. Outdoor slate tile can cost as much as $35 per square foot, which is about the same as porcelain.
