I have used Centimole Masonry a year ago for replacement of sidewalk sections and for redesign/replacement of steps down to home entry walk. (After 50 years the entry steps were no longer conforming in rise-to-run requirements and were deteriorated. Joe provided a redesign using brick risers, cement steps and 6" w x 2"d dress borders and step treads. He made several trips to his supplier to assure perfect bluestone match and to assure he brick riser colors conformed to the stione front of the house. It was masterful. Joe Centimole is a true craftsman who has high standards and who provides the best materials, schedule and installation services).
The slope from house to curb is 10' drop in 50'. At the sidewalk settling had caused the old asphalt-composit pipe to break which caused flooding at the walkway. This would be a hazard in freezing conditions at the walk and at the near-bye driveway apron.
Joe removed the 20' of old sidewalk and it became apparent that there would be insufficient elevation to get under the walk and connect to the curb cut. After discussing several alternatives with we elected to repave the walkway. Joe used reinforcing grid under the drive apron.
Later he cut and removed a 6" strip of asphalt at the driveway base at the house-side of the new sidewalk. He excavated an additional 10" of soil across the drive and then extended the trench 6' up hill to a 90 degree connection to the pipe. He then extended the trench 12' down hill on the other side of the drive to another 90 degree bend. That permitted enough elevation change to reach the curb. He sawcut the sidewalk at this point and extended the trench to a new curb cut. Using PVC 40 he piped the route and connected to the french drain and curb cut. He backfilled the soil, replaced the concrete sidewalk section and curb cut, then refilled the driveway cut with new asphalt.
As usual he left the property pristine.
If you want it done right. If you want it done handsomely. Call this guy.
He repaired the brick steps in front of our house. They were built in 1989 and Joe was willing to do the repair instead of replacing them. He carefully sawed every single joint, widened them and placed new mortar in them. He power washed the bricks before and after, then applied a sealer coat for protection.
The sidewalk right next to our house had three cracks in it. Joe filled them with a rubberized compound that will shrink and grow as appropriate as the temperature changes. This will prevent future cracks from happening.
I would definitely use Joe again. He treated our property with the same care as if it was his own. I highly recommend him.
In all cases Joe was exceptional, and professional with going about the work that I wanted done. Especially the walkway along the pool; which I inherited when I purchased the home in 1983. In was 2007, when I asked Joe to see if he could do anything with the poll walkway, after he had made the repairs with the side walk in the front of my house.
