"Thank you for your review, we always appreciate feed back to improve our customer service."
Both times they worked on the pavers we happend to be out of town so it appears that if they are not supervised they cut corners and do shoddy work. I would never hire these guys again. I have placed a call to have them fix the drainage issue again and have yet to hear back. Too bad because the rock veneer looks great, problem is I don't trust them.
"Thank you for your feedback. We are always working to improve our customer service and quality of work. Thank you, Artcon Family"

UPDATE: This is an update on ARTCON, they responded to my complaint with the BBB stating that their supplier and manufacturer did a temperature test and concluded that the spraydeck was cooling the concrete a difference in average of 15 degrees from the bare concrete in the driveway. The problem with that response is I don't know what driveway they are referring to, they never came to my residence and did any testing, never happened, in fact this is the first I heard of that happening. I responded to the BBB asking them to have Artcon produce a report or any evidence that anyone ever came to my home and did any testing. If they do it will be a report that they created as the were never here. I am waiting for the Contractors board to come out. in classic Artcon fashion they state in their response to the BBB that all the complaints they have on google/Yelp are from people who refused to pay, really ? I spoke to a person on that list and that is absolutely not the case, I suggest you read their reviews closely before dealing with this company. Google Artcon reviews.
"The NSCB is now investigating this issue and no work will be preformed at the property until after the scheduled meeting on 07/05/2012 @ 3pm, "IF" required by the NSCB. When the NSCB rules "IN" ArtCon's favor we are "REQUIRING" that the customer remove ALL complaints from ALL sites (BBB, Yelp, Angies List, Sienna News Letter Etc. within 24 hours, WITH a positive review.)"

However, when warranty issues came they were responsive at first...then they fall off the face of the earth.

Their crew worked with the pool tile crew to coordinate access to the back yard, so no time was lost with an empty pool. We saved money by having a drained pool while they sprayed the new cool deck, and color matched it. They laid down multiple coats to make sure the colors matched from section to section.
They went above and beyond with coating an existing walkway, adding a barrier to prevent that white mineral deposits from breaking through and peeling the new coating.
They also went above and beyond the quote on the new pad for the shed, extending it a few inches past the gate to give the existing gate post a better footing. They added drainage cutouts for the A/C drain.
They waited 10 days before coating the new pad with the cool deck color, so it would setup correctly.
The garage expoy was done very professionally.
We are very pleased with the results all the way around.

Our first contact with with a young salesman named John, who met with us, described what would be entailed in the project, and he took measurements of the affected areas. Because we were, at that point, also contemplating adding height to existing block perimeter walls, he examined and measured those as well. At his request, we provided him with property code, HOA CCand R, and permit information for this property for his engineers to review.
When we did not hear back as expected, we called and spoke with the VP and co-owner of the company, Dave Williams, who reminded us that John had gone on vacation. Since John was away, we re-sent information to Dave, then he came out and re-measured the property, and provided us with more information about the project. Two days later Dave called with bad news about our perimeter walls -- the engineer had determined they cannot be raised above the present level (5') without completely demolishing and rebuilding the walls. At least we had a definitive answer about that.
After the Mauri project got through its initial demo phase, the Artcon crew arrived and in one day built all the forms for the concrete. The concrete was poured the next morning. The following day the forms were removed, drains were installed, and then work began on the pool deck resurface. At one point during the power washing, one worker had some trouble with his equipment and it blew a breaker; once we re-set the breaker power was back on, but unfortunately his equipment was out of commission. Despite this hitch, the deck preparation was finished by the end of the day. The following day the new surface was applied, and after 24 hours it was good to go.
The only minor problem we had with the design was where we should have had concrete poured to replace a section of existing concrete curbing near one oasis; it happened one other place, but we happened to catch and fix that one.
Mauri Landscapes' crew cooperated beautifully with Artcon's crew in preparing the area where concrete would be poured, and in not creating a flying debris problem after the epoxy deck surface was applied.
The new deck surface looks fantastic and is cool on bare feet. It has given us a lot more lounge area near the pool, where we can also dine comfortably out in the open where it is cooler at night, instead of beneath the patio overhang which retains heat during the hot summer months.
The unexpected gem of this job was the pathway leading from the patio to front gate and the mechanical equipment. What was previously a dirt area beside an overgrown planter, and where the equipment sat on a small pad but the path to it was dirt, rocky and very uneven to walk on, we now have a solid 3' wide concrete path for much safer and easier access to the gate and the equipment, which will make maintenance and operation much easier and more pleasant.
I commend Artcon on their responsiveness of communication, despite the initial minor delay, which was really our fault for not providing the information before John went on vacation. We even needed to call with a question over the Labor Day weekend and they got back to us right away! (We thought they accidentally covered pool valves; it turned out the Mauri crew chief rerouted it but did not point it out to us.) The minor design glitch concerning the concrete curbing is not their fault; we and/or Mauri should have been clearer about that in the first place, although having fixed one, it would have been nice if they'd realized it was going to be the same problem with the other oasis. So they get an A, not and A+.
Overall, Artcon did a great job for us. We are very satisfied with how the job turned out. The plan proceeded on schedule and on budget, and Artcon provided high quality workmanship. We would not hesitate to recommend Artcon to other Las Vegas homeowners.

"All work described in the description of work was completed per Nevada code. A supervisor (Forman) was present on that this job everyday as well as our superintendent checking on the progress daily. All work was performed up to date and to code verified by the Nevada State Contractors Board and the City and state inspectors, as well as them stating no work performed by ArtCon contributed to ANY damage that was done to their property. We did state work would take approx 2 weeks to complete, unfortunately due to inspection schedules and homeowner not allowing us on property at time to finish the work took longer to complete than expected. ArtCon requested for the homeowner to file a complaint with the NSCB because they would not allow us to complete the project. The NSCB came out and found that there were no valid complaints by homeowner and no violations by ArtCon. Homeowner still will would not allow us back on property nor pay the balance due for work completed, as well as opening a fraudulent credit card claim with his credit card company for the original deposit of work that is completed to Nevada standards. Unfortunately some people like to slander others to avoid paying their debts. Christina Kankelborg, office manager"
