"Adam was a pleasure to work with. He drew up the plans himself and met with us before starting the project to make sure we were all on the same page. His workers were very efficient and thorough. The quality of work completed was exceptional and we couldn't be happier with our pavers/walkway. His team was very professional and clean. The project didn't drag out, they came in and worked every day until the project was complete. They also cleaned up after themselves every night so we didn't come home to a mess. We had three different companies come out and give us a quote for the same project and Adams price was competitive and the quality of work far exceeded our expectations. Save yourself the time and look no further for any hardscaping work you are looking to have done."

"Steven came to the house, listened to what we wanted to do, and provided a detailed plan for the project. His team arrived when he said they would arrive and the project lasted as long as he estimated at the beginning. Workmanship is excellent. Our patio quickly became our favorite part of our house. We will definitely call Steven first if we ever need hardscape work done in the future."
"I'd highly recommend DeMilo Bros for anything concrete and paver related. From the start of my project to the end they were just a breath of fresh air. Great people, they clean up after themselves and definitely go the extra mile to make sure the job is done right! They did a fairly large paver patio for me, and I just assumed I'd have an 18"-24" drop to get to the yard I'd have to deal with. Turns out they had a sod cutter, took up the grass, graded it out 10+ feet, and put the sod back down for a very professional clean look. They even have an irrigation guy on staff who took care of moving heads and lines. Thank you, Bobby and crew, job well done!"
"crawlspace needed structural repairs to my wood framing and piers, an internal french drainage system to stop water intrusion, as well as installation of a 10mil floor liner to help keep moisture levels down. FD was EXTREMELY professional from my initial call and on-site appointment, to the guys doing the installation. I was kept informed throughout the entire process so there were no surprises. I HIGHLY recommend Foundation Doctor for any crawlspace work!"
"I can't believe how smoothly this repair went! Everyone at Falcone--the schedulers who arranged our estimate visit and the repair work, the foundation experts who repaired the porch, the finance people who explained the estimate and our final bill--every single one of them was helpful, prompt, courteous, and great at their jobs. The county inspector who reviewed the porch repair even made a point of telling us what high quality work the Falcone people had done for us! I would definitely call them again! If you're interested in our specific details, this repair was crucial to maintaining our house's structural integrity; since the screened-in porch is attached to the house, if it went down the hill, so would the back wall of the house! The foundation had cracked away from the main house and the slab was cracked and sliding apart at different angles. The men from Falcone excavated, cleaned, and prepped the job site, including washing the bottom section of the slab to promote bonding when the new concrete was poured. Then they poured a porch perimeter slab wall under the slab to stabilize the foundation. In addition, they installed a backer rod and applied concrete sealant to re-connect the porch foundation to house and prevent additional damage."
"The whole experience was very professional and projects have been quality workmanship. We had a couple interruptions of the work due to family situations and they were very understanding and helped us every step of the way. All contractors were pleasant to work with and Jared's attention to detail was great!"
"Spencer and Ethan worked very well together. They were on time and each one proceeded to take care of their tasks without much communication between them. They had knowledge of the product and process that they were using to lift my two slabs and were efficient in their execution."
Stone can last anywhere from 15 to 100 years before it needs to be restored. You should clean your stone flooring or countertops regularly using cleaners designed for stone surfaces. Stay on top of vacuuming to prevent scratches from deteriorating stone faster, deep clean your stone surfaces using a pH-neutral cleaning solution at least once a year, and reseal the stone every one to five years, depending on foot traffic or usage.
Discoloration ondifferent types of brick can range from harmless to red flag. For example, efflorescence that is caused by a buildup of water-soluble white salt is considered harmless. However, green or greenish-yellow stains are caused by salts that are harmful to brick. Staining can also be caused by rust, corrosion, lime run, soot, algae, or moss.
Landscape boulders, especially porous stones like sandstone or granite, can crack or break over time. Cracks occur when water seeps into the surface of the stone and freezes. The risk is highest when it rains during the day and temperatures freeze overnight since the moisture has time to penetrate deeper into the rock before expanding.
Spalling brick is not uncommon, but it does indicate a serious issue. It can be caused by water damage, an intense freeze-thaw cycle, or something else. Painted bricks can be susceptible to spalling, as the paint doesn’t allow the porous material of the brick to breathe, which can trap moisture. Spalling should always be addressed immediately before more serious structural damage occurs.
Yes, depending on the type of pavers you have, you may need a specific type of sealant. For example, concrete pavers will bond differently than clay pavers or faux stone pavers and will demand a different type of sealer. If you’re unsure of the material and what type of sealant you need, you can contact the company that laid your pavers down for you.
