Mike and his crew were fantastic to work with. We had a variety of projects that were interconnected with replacing an old driveway, and they handled all with great expertise. Communication and responsiveness was also excellent. We've received numerous compliments on the quality of the work. This is the 2nd time we've worked with this company and have been very satisfied both times.

I contacted them; they did not respond.
Response from Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp

"Good afternoon! Thank you for your interest in Isbir Construction & Landscape. I sincerely apologize that we did not respond in our normal timely manner. We recently had a new computer server installed and internal office changes that interrupted our email notifications from Angie's List. Currently we are specializing in Drainage due to the high volume of water issues and damage customers are having with all the rain this year. We would love to help you if given the opportunity! Please contact our office at 412-751-4359 so that we can get you on the schedule to speak with the owner Mike Isbir. Looking forward to hearing from you! Thanks! Bethany Jurofcik, Office Manager"

Mike Isbir walked the surrounding properties to determine the cause and source of the stormwater. The four man crew installed a catch basin at the back corner of the property with a 4-inch pipe underground connecting with a front yard stormwater pipe. They worked their way around large old trees with out damage which was impressive. The crew also added a swale filled with river rock across the side property line to capture and slow any additional water flow. The look is really a finished one. A second project was to eliminate water at the front of the house by raising the basement window wells, banking the beds with topsoil & mulch, and replacing limestone slabs & sealing the front porch. The entire project went like clockwork. They came when they said and were finished in two days. Mike Isbir and his crew are knowledgeable professionals. An excellent company!
Response from Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp

"We are very pleased that this member was satisfied with the recent work we did at their residence for the stormwater correction. The topography of Pittsburgh, along with the landscape, does not always lend itself to easy drainage answers. And the completed work is not always "pretty" like having a new patio or landscape installed. In fact, the nature of this work is corrective or restorative, and often more meaningful than a new lawn. When we can address an issue and implement corrective action--that is satisfaction for us. And to be offered a compliment in the form of a positive review, well, that is icing on the cake! This member was educated about what was necessary, and they both were great to work with. We appreciate that they took time to post a review--Thanks Much!"

If you are looking for someone for exterior drainage issues, don’t look any further than Mike! He is an expert and such a personable young man. Explains everything and suggests options. I had an Angie’s List coupon and he solved my problem that day...he is excellent!! I highly recommend this young man!
Response from Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp

"We appreciate that you took the time to post your response; but more importantly that you were pleased with your recent consultation with Mike Isbir. Mike takes satisfaction with problem solving. Not every consultation results in a potential job--oftentimes, he will provide solutions that are simple enough for the homeowner to implement. And by operating his business in this manner, members such as you may call us back in a year or few for other work! Thank you for your review."

I used this company twice, for this project and typing our downspouts to flow underground to sewer excessive water around the foundation. Very pleased with the the company, personnel and crew. Project was executed promptly and advised with any issues that arose and easily resolved. Only negative was the dirt fill (topsoil) was more clay than better quality soil.

This outfit is an extremely professional one. So hard to find any service-based company which is really good at what they do, are reliable and punctual for appointments and customer-oriented -- but Mike and his staff are the real McCoy. He knew exactly what weed I was dealing with and how to defeat it, just from a brief verbal description. Impressive!
Response from Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp

"This member had a telephone consultation with owner Mike Isbir about an issue that she is having in her yard. Mike speaks with every potential customer personally to discuss his or her issue. When he speaks to a member on the telephone, he does his own appointment scheduling to go to the home and meet in person. There is no cost for either the telephone consultation--we call it a Virtual Appointment--or the home visit. Personal service distinguishes us as a professional corporation. We appreciate that this member took time from her day to post a review."

Mike showed up on time and listened to what I was looking for at the front of the house and what I needed at the back of the house. He asked a lot of good questions and made some great suggestions. On Monday, I received a sketch of the plans we had discussed for the front yard. The hour of consulting was reasonable enough. Unfortunately the price he quoted was over $12,000 and that is 4x our budget so we won't be using his company to do the work.
Response from Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp

"Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp appreciates that this member took the time to post a review about the recent consultation with our owner, Mike Isbir. The consultation is a service that we provide for homeowners who have questions about various issues on their property. Hopefully, the suggestions that were provided can be implemented in some format. We are not going to be a good fit for everyone. Thanks for your thoughts!"

Work was done in two days as planned. Crew was very professional and kept me in the loop. Ran into an unexpected problem and was provided with a good work around solution. Excellent project and customer management.
Response from Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp

"We appreciate that this member took the time to post a review. We enjoy working with an educated consumer. Drainage corrections are not "pretty" but often necessary, particularly with the hilly topography of Pittsburgh.Going forward, the member should be confident that the water issues he was experiencing are behind him now. Thanks for the opportunity to work with this member."

Originally started with their consulting service. Mike made referrals to several other companies to evaluate our issue. Ultimately, it was just as Mike recommended. He gave two separate quotes for a more extensive to a basic solution. We chose the basic solution. Communication was excellent. Mike himself came to the site the day of the work to confirm what areas would be excavated. His crew completed the work on time in a half day. Reseeded the excavated area and obviously will have to wait to see how it grows in. But overall, Mike's group is very professional. Would recommend to someone else in the future.
Response from Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp

"We appreciate this member took the time to post a review for us! We often don't think about the exterior of our property--until something happens and water encroaches the interior. No job is too small or not important; we value all of our clients. This member was great to work with--Thank you for your kind words."

He answered my questions.
Response from Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp

"This member has worked with us previously; and she needed a consultation. She purchased a "Big Deal" through Angie's List in regard to some issues with drainage. Mike Isbir has been solving drainage matters for over 18 years, so we have a good handle on what will work best. Mike spent an hour with the member and answered all of her questions. We appreciate that she took time to post a review."

He gave some great advice & a plan to move forward with some low cost solutions.
Response from Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp

"We are pleased that this member was satisfied with her consultation with ICLC owner Mike Isbir. His background and experience in drainage assessment continues to grow. Between the topography of the greater Pittsburgh area and the ongoing extreme weather events, more and more homeowners are becoming educated out of necessity. Home and property are one's largest investment, and we recognize the importance to protect the investment. Thanks for taking the time to post the review!"

"This member did not comment on the diagnosis provided by Isbir Construction & Landscape during the appointment. Our owner, Mike Isbir, has over fifteen years background in engineering as well as twenty plus years in landscaping. During those years, he has become extremely knowledgeable in diagnosing and implementing drainage solutions of every sort. He offers consultations to share his expertise, with no further commitment expected on the part of the member. In the event that the member chooses to contract with ICLC, a discount that far exceeds the $59 investment is included with the assessment. We hope that the member ultimately was able to correct her drainage issue and we sincerely regret that she was not satisfied with her experience."

Great. Mike guided me about a problem with my back windows and reassured me that the landscaping and slope of the yard around the house were correct for projecting my basement.

Mike was very professional, prompt, and seemed knowledgeable. He basically told me everything I already knew unfortunately. In fact he only correctly diagnosed an issue after I repeatedly pointed out what I thought was the issue. No specific plans or detailed suggestions for improvement were given as a part of the deal. Mike did proceed to give me an estimate to repair one of the issues, which was extremely high. Basically the service that was given was okay but certainly unimpressive based on the amount of money paid.
Response from Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp

"Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp appreciates that the member took the time to leave a review for a Landscaping Consultation. Owner Mike Isbir periodically offers professional consultations to define corrective actions recommended for the home and property. We are no a Good Fit for everyone. Feedback is very important to us and we use it to continually evolve and better serve present and future clients."

Response from Isbir Construction & Landscape Corp

"If a customer needs something remedial, Mike Isbir will share his expertise---with no expectation that work will result. In fact, when someone calls for a Big Deal consultation, often it is for Mr. Isbir's knowledge and solutions, with no expectation of additional services being sold. We are pleased that the customer was able to resolve his issue! We appreciate that he took the time to post a review as well."
