"Very unhappy with the quality of workmanship. The chimney rebuild went well except for a water leak at the flashing. the sidewalk was terrible as if they had never done a sidewalk before. The patio was not graded properly so water now runs back towards the foundation, the steps had gaps where they did not belong , adhesive was spilt in the top of the steps and would not come off."
