As the home was rented (and I lived out of state), I needed to find a reliable contractor/handyman with whom I could work long-distance. After several failures and disappointments, I joined Angie's List and found Stephan Bennett. What a blessing! Stephan is a warm, courteous, and professional worker. He is honest and competent, and kept in touch with me every step of the way. Communication with him is easy and precise, and he has a way of simplifying resolutions without sacrificing quality or aesthetics. He pays close attention to details and costs, and is flexible when needed. His work is top-notch. My working relationship with Stephan was seamless and rewarding. He not only satisfied my criteria, but my renters found him to be supportive and pleasant to work with. I can recommend his services without hesitation, and I will definitely use him again if and when the need arises. Thank you, Stephan - and thank you Angie's List!

Nowlin refused to rebate any of the cost paid for the incomplete drawings. Nowlin did not bring in appropriate equipment to do grade work in a timely manner. Construction of retaining wall was not straight or level. Nowlin was unable to professionally measurements and guage grading and drainage. Because the work needed to be coordinated with the construction of a new porch, Nowlin needed to do soil removal and preliminary grading before contractor could build porch. Contractor had to do additional grading that Nowlin would not do to build porch. Nowlin was paid in full for work at completion of preliminary grade work and before retaining wall was completed. At this time the quality of the work on the wall and the issue of drainage was raised, but Nowlin did not address either issues. Owner should have held back a % of the fee at this time. Upon conpletion of porch Nowlin was asked to finish work he was paid in full for. He failed to return to the job and stated that he had completed all the work he was contracted for and would not address any of the issues - stating he put in more time on the job than he had esatimated it would take. I'm sorry if he under estimated the job. He was fired and a different contractor was brought on. The new contractor raised many of the issues stated including that the automatic valve that was installed was in violation of City code. Nowlin neverpulled a permit nor got an inspection. I am now having to pay to have Nowlins mistakes and incomplete work corrected.

We negotiated to all materials only. He gave us alot of run arounds and took our money and barely did any work. He was difficult to communicate with, lost his temper many times and was very unprofessional. He would say that he would show up and then not, and will give you every excuse under the sun. If you bring it to his attention, you are the one who is difficult to deal with. He took his time and did not care about completing our project in a timely manner. His \"whole crew\" consists of him and one other worker. Our surveillance cameras showed a lack of work when they were on the job site, I personally stayed home one day to observe behind closed doors and saw him and his worker laying down on the job for a significant amount of time. He charges by the hour (per the contract) and will milk it for all he can get. He then called us one Friday to tell us that he had unauthorized charges on his bank account and asked for payroll/labor money. We refused (as we had given a hefty deposit and 6 weeks later not even half the job was complete) now he wanted even more money. When we refused to give him more money, he got very upset, threatened to walk of the project, and then refused to do a portion of the estimate. He made it very difficult to work with him. We gave him a design of what we wanted, and plenty of details. He forgot alot of it, didn't pay attention or didn't care. We had to correct alot of the things he was doing wrong, and again, we were the ones being difficult. Long story short, he did not complete the project, kept our deposit and had the audacity to say that we owed him even more money. BEWARE OF THE CONTRACT. We should have had a lawyer review the contract prior to signing it. We didn't know at the time of signing the contract, but his grandfather is a lawyer and created the contract for him. It is biased in favor of Mr. Hollen. READ EVERY DETAIL. Make sure the contract has a start date and an estimated completion date. Make sure that you are not charged per hour, only charged per the estimate hours. Better yet, don't do business with Mr. Hollen. You will regret it.Mr. Hollen is not licensed to do concrete work, he will tell you that he doesn't need one. He is also not licensed to do sprinkler systems and he may tell you that he is operating under someone elses license, but do your research first, you do need a license to perform concrete work in New Mexico.We had to take Mr. Hollen to small claims court and we received a judgement in our favor for the balance of money that he owed us for not completing the project."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/nm/carlsbad/hollen-landscaping-reviews-7329448.htm"},"position":9}]}

I was happy with them because Chris offered some suggestions to make the yard work better for me. But the options are not probably the best for my needs. The gravel and mulch areas are great and the drip system seem to be working just fine but the mulch may not be a good choice for my dogs...

Rising S Bunkers offers the best underground steel shelters, bomb shelters, safe rooms & blast doors on the market. We lead the industry in quality and we have the highest standards for craftsmanship in underground bunkers and other emergency shelters. The Rising S standard of quality is unmatched by any other bunker company on the market today. Additionally, every project is completely customizable. Many customization's are available at no additional cost.
"Not even sure where to begin with this nightmare which I will now need to spend more money in legal just to get my money back if I'm lucky. It all started back in 2022 when a respectful salesperson Gary sold me on an underground bunker. Still to this day, he answers the phone for me, and he doesn't even work at Rising S company anymore. To keep a long story shorter, I paid over $100K for my unit after being pushed to make payments to 'keep it on the assembly line'. It has been paid in full since August of 2023 (just about 15 months for anyone counting). I received a response (finally) earlier this year in March that there is new ownership of the company, and the man in charge is Brad Dancer. After trying to contact for quite awhile, I did finally get him on the phone. He apologized and explained to me that he's in over his head. Even though I believe I have been more than patient, I agreed to give him some time to finish and deliver my unit. We agreed that August of this year (2024) I would have it. I checked in by email in June to ask if we were still on track. I received a response that we were indeed on track. Now fast forward to today (10/25/24), I have been completely ghosted by email, phone, and text. No responses at all by ANY form of communication. At this point, I realize I have been robbed of over $100K. And after reading many other consumers reviews on different platforms, it appears I'm not the only one. I will now begin my journey with the Attorney General and Legal process. I'll update my status here so anyone can see what happens. At least people can get answers some way. It is not a good feeling to not be able to get a company to call you, especially after they've taken over $100k. You can't even leave a message on the office line ( which no one has EVER answered by the way). I don't understand how a company like this could still be in business. My recommendation to anyone reading this.....I hope it's not too late for you."

FAQs for concrete wall construction projects in Atoka, NM
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
Concrete repair costs range anywhere from about $0.10 to $0.15 per linear foot to fill minor cracks, to about $6 to $14 per square foot to replace damaged concrete slabs. Repair costs vary widely depending on the size and type of work needed. For example, replacing 100 square feet of driveway will cost between $600 to $1,400, on average.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.
Concrete contractors typically charge anywhere from $6 to $14 per square foot. Cost factors include job size, site prep, base material, accessibility, your location, concrete finish, and concrete thickness. Removal of existing concrete, asphalt, deck, pavers, and grass will cost anywhere from $1 to $6 per square foot. Homeowners can often save money by removing and disposing of existing pavers, decks, and grass. Breaking up and hauling away concrete and asphalt is difficult and time-consuming without the proper equipment and may be worth having the pros do that work.
