"Found Rock-A-Fellas on Angies List and I'm glad I did. Bob examined thoroughly and patiently explained the construction flaws in the carport built in the rear of my home by another contractor back in 2009. Because the original contactor did not follow standard building codes and use proper construction techniques and materials, I was cited by the City of Philadelphia. Bob spoke to the Licenses and Inspections Inspector and tried very hard to figure a way to save the carport. Unfortunately, due to the poor prior construction, demolition was the only option left to me.
Bob and his three man crew arrived 30 minutes early and for the next three and a half hours methodically and carefully removed the carport, which included a roof and sides. I was very impressed with their attention to detail such as avoiding damaging the power and cable lines, reassembling the downspout, tying back the power lines after the demolition was over/
After the demolition was over, you couldn't tell there was ever a structure.
I hired Rock-A-Fellas to remodel/reconstruct my nephew's bedroom, which had termite and moisture damage. I'm also considering having Bob and his crew do a complete remodel of my kitchen, basement, and a new carport.
This was my best experience with a contractor. I give Rock-A-Fellas an A+++++ rating.

"I recently hired Clark Chimney and Masonry for a chimney cap and liner replacement and I'm extremely satisfied with their service. The team was prompt, professional, and efficient. They took great care in ensuring a clean work environment and thoroughly explained the process. The pricing was fair, and I appreciated their friendly customer service. I highly recommend [Chimney Service Company] for anyone in need of reliable and top-notch chimney services!"

"Every time it rained we would get water in our garage and basement. Thought about getting water proof system installed for years and finally got it done with Rightway. We have had 2 serious rains since the system was installed and have not had a drop in our basement.
If you have the same issues as us i highly recommend you finally get it done and use Rightway and you will not regret it.

"Everything was excellent. The team identified the hole in our pool liner. On the day of replacing the liner, identified a potentially severe issue with the structure of the pool. Provided a recommendation for a replacement pool. Proceeded to remove the old pool and excavate the land in preparation for construction of the new pool. Once the new pool arrived, they constructed the pool and constructed new outline landscaping around the pool. We are now the envy of our neighbors who have all watched and gazed in amazement at our new backyard oasis. For all of your pool needs, this is who you need to contact ASAP."

"I hired Rovase to handle several large projects around my hilly property (just under 1 acre not far from Valley Forge Park). Robert, the Rovase owner, listened carefully when I described my landscaping preferences. I soon learned that his entire crew was listening closely, as well.
I explained that I like a more natural looking landscape, rather than a carefully manicured design. I emphasized that "perfect" and "symmetry" don't work for me. For that reason I'd asked Robert to bring about 25 small boulders to my property to reinforce a retaining wall of boulders that was started but never properly finished by another well known professional (and inept) landscaper, years ago.
Robert's crew did much more then reinforce the old wall; they reconstructed it. They pulled out the original 12 or 15 boulders, put down heavy landscaping fabric, then replaced the original boulders and added the new ones. They extended the wall to the full length of the bank, thus preventing the continued erosion of soil that began immediately after the original waste-of-my-money landscaper installed his faulty version of a retaining wall.
Rovase cleared out all of the weeds and volunteer saplings that had sprouted (due to at least five years of neglect) on the bank and throughout my property and planted about 30 ferns, shrubs, and flowering plants as I directed. They even took care to ensure that the best, fullest side of each planting faced out, which NO other landscaper ever did for me.
I must admit that in their effort to clean things up, they removed a few small existing plantings that I did not intend to lose, but I partially fault myself because I didn't tell them to leave those items intact. The guys restored as many of those plants as they could, and I feel that they made up for that minor loss by going the extra mile on so many other parts of this enormous project.
I asked Rovase to use stone instead of mulch to cover this steep bank. I opted for the extra cost of stone to preclude the mandatory annual mulch restoration. Besides that, I needed something more substantial than mulch to stop the perpetual erosion on that steep pitch.
The team also dug a long trench across the back of my yard and filled it with more stone to channel and manage the runoff water coming from the home behind me, further uphill. This will prevent further damage to the foundation of my detached garage, which has born the brunt of countless post-rainstorm rivers rushing through my backyard for the past several years, presumably due to an uphill neighbor's modified drainage. (Hmmm. . . thanks neighbor.)
I also asked Rovase to create a small path behind my mailbox so that I could access my mail without stepping on to my busy road. That required digging out a large section of the sloping bank leading down to my mailbox. I expected that to be a difficult excavation but they did it in very short order; before I knew it, my days of risking my life to get my mail was a thing of the past.
This short new mailbox path gave me evidence that the Rovase team really listened to my speech about preferring a natural, non-manicured look. One of the guys digging out the bank behind the mailbox came across several broad, flat stones under all of the earth he moved. He took the initiative to situate those stones in a line behind my mailbox, creating a lovely, natural looking path.
He then called me to review his idea, saying he thought the stone might save me money AND suit my preference for imperfection better than the pavers I expected to buy for the path. I was (and still am) giddy over how perfectly his solution suits me.
What really amazed me and sold me on Rovase? They listen AND care!!
They all worked hard, moving a LOT of stone and boulder material up my hill, but I didn't catch the slightest indication of complaint from anyone. Each fellow was smiling, cheerful, polite, and dedicated to customer satisfaction. It was truly an impressive group of guys.
All in all, I am impressed with the quality of the work and the thoughtfulness of the workers from Rovase. I would and will hire them again for future landscaping needs. Also, because the company does other kinds of general contracting and building, I will solicit help from Rovase on other non-landscaping projects in the future.

"OUTSTANDING SERVICE!! WC FALLOWS solved a tricky problem for us, FAST. Our main septic pipe seal degraded over the years, and we started getting ground water streaming into our basement, every time it rained heavily. Bill and his team were super responsive, and knew exactly how to remedy the problem. Bill is clearly an expert in this field, and even had to cut through our deck to access the pipe. I am happy to report it rained like crazy last night, and our basement is DRY! Not only are Bill/team highly skilled, but they provided 1st class service; took muddy shoes off before coming inside the house, meticulously and carefully replaced our deck planks to minimize damage, hosed surfaces down after work was completed, etc. etc. They are fantastic and Bill's sense of humor is an added bonus! Thoroughly enjoyed working with him/his team, and would highly recommend."

"Saed and his team helped me with two different projects in my home, one was to remove our load bearing kitchen wall and the other was to create a vaulted ceiling in the living room by removing the ceiling joists. They handled both the permitting documentation and the construction work. They completed the work quickly and did everything they said they would. Saed and his brother are very easy-going guys, and I would highly recommend them."
