Great communication and timely estimate.  Work was delayed due to weather. 200+ sq ft stamped concrete patio and pad for 1+ car garage both turned out well.

Did it all in one day, no mess left and exactly to my specs

I couldn't be happier with the service and work performed by Andy Putrello and his crew. He came to give an estimate soon after I contacted him and performed the work a short time after we agreed upon a price. He stayed in close contact with me regarding updates and got the work done quickly and professionally. The results look great!

I contacted the contractor in August to request a quote. Their representative arrived at the agreed upon time, took necessary measurements, discussed options, and then mailed and e-mailed the estimate. Over a couple of weeks, we communicated on some additional considerations, a revision to the estimate was made, and the contract was signed. I felt the quoted price was a bit high, but selected this proposal over others based on their responsiveness and knowledge, detailed proposal/contract (which others weren't willing to provide), positive feedback from references they provided, and their willingness to work with my schedule.
The owner and his crew arrived the first day right on time. The brick that arrived with them had to be returned for replacement, but he understood the discrepancy and was very willing to make the correction. The first day's work was demolition and pouring a new foundation. Brick laying and installing a limestone landing at the top took a couple of days. Each day, the crew cleaned up the work site, and protected the installation and materials.
Finish work to remove excess mortar took a bit longer to get just right. High pressure washes were necessary to remove excess material from the bricks, but after the steps were wet it was difficult to see where the mortar was. After the steps dried, it was clear that more work had to be done. I contacted them to continue the process, and they returned the same day to complete this phase.
I'm very pleased with the final result.

They seemed like they were good. They were professional and knowledgeable.

Mr. Taverne and his staff were very patient and helpful while I considered the colors, patterns and dimensions. His crew was very polite and professional. Not being familiar with the process, I regret that I did not know enough to cover my front door and flower arrangement with plastic to avoid the powder/process which coats everything before it is sealed. I would have removed the decorations.
