"I don’t normally post reviews but this one I HAVE TO! The sad part is before this encounter I referred 3 different people who needed flooring or painting to him & immediately had to reach out to them & warn them of this final interaction. First off he broke multiple items in my home, never replaced the outlets they removed to paint, & left areas unpainted or needing touch ups which I did myself & I had an item go missing which I was willing to let go of (but now after the threat made I'm not sure if my items were broken, missing or simply stolen)……in addition he had no real schedule, they showed up whatever day/time they wanted, if they showed up at all! Then things took a turn for the worse when I asked him to come back and fix my railings that were in great condition when I purchased the home 12-21-23 & it PASSED inspection (because it would be a safety hazard it would not have passed inspection if they were not in good & stable condition) that his guys took out while doing the flooring. Mind you, I expressed to him the reason I am requesting that he comes back and fix it is because I had a child bump into it and almost fall through the railing on the second floor down the steps. When I text to ask if he can come back to fix it, first I was told they were already like that, then he said they were falling out as they walked up the steps, THEN I was called a b**** & he said “I’d be lucky if he doesn’t come back to rob me after all the work he did for me (imagine how uneasy that would make any female knowing this group of grown men had access to my home for over a month!) then he said that I wouldn’t even be able to prove he did any work for me since I paid him cash & we didn’t have a contract”. All the while I have direct messages including discussions of payment, he text me pictures & vice versa, & he posted the job on his FB! When I say I was FUMING!!! The lack of professionalism, lack of accountability and to make threats?! Thank God for pictures, text messages, FB & witnesses! I waited to post this in hopes that once I calmed down from my initial reaction I’d have a different perspective on how to approach this. The saddest part is that this could have VERY easily & respectfully been resolved ??‍♀️. Unless you have the time/ability to micromanage any & every thing he does, DO NOT HIRE!!!! He "might come back & rob you"! (Disgusting to say even out of anger!) Take a look at the before & after below. P.S Also the same closet he posted on his page had to be redone by a different contractor because he didnt actually screw anything onto the studs but instead used anchors & made pointless holes in my wall."

Serving expertise in French drains , Gutter run offs systems , Soil an fill spreading , Driveway Spreading , Retaining walls , Paver Installs , Stone, Fill Dirt an soil delivery along with other High Cause Construction needs.

"Sean was very responsive and professional all along from the first time I called. He waited patiently while I vetted other companies and was ready with the culvert when the other companies weren't. I didn't expect him to be able to get to me so soon due to a big job he was on ahead of me but he came and got it done quickly and neatly. It turned out that the old culvert had been crushed with blacktop pieces so they had to leave and bring in a claw truck to get it out but they got it done. Very nice people that I would definitely hire again."

"Such a shame that a local business would end up being a scam. This is why people turn away from local companies. Juan Rivera provided us a scope of work to clean up our landscaping and add more stone where needed. Also was to reset the plastic edging that divides the grass from the stone. We agreed to estimate and he did not finished the project but definitely took all the money. Agreed to come out to finish the items he admitted in text were missed. Set a day and time and then never showed up. Has ghosted us since. Filed complaints with agencies. Considering next steps since I do not take kindly to taking money and not completing what was agreed upon. Scam artist for side."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Topsoil costs from $12 to $55 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. For example, screened black dirt will cost about $15 per cubic yard. Loam (soil composed of sand, silt, and clay) costs about $17 per cubic yard. Standard screened topsoil costs about $20 per cubic yard. The type of topsoil you need depends on your landscaping plans.

That depends on the number of cubic feet in each bag. Ten 2-cubic-foot bags of mulch will cover 20 cubic feet, while 10 3-cubic-foot bags of mulch will cover 30 cubic feet. Learning how to DIY mulch can save you money and help you repurpose natural items such as wood chips, pine needles, and leaves.

Mulching any time of year can be beneficial, so you can choose based on your preference. Most homeowners avoid the winter and summer because of the uncomfortable temperatures, so spring and fall are often best. Try not to mulch right before heavy rainfall or a big storm is expected, as wind and runoff can move newly laid mulch around and make more work for you.

Determine whether you have any other heavy, bulky, or oddly-shaped items you’d like to relocate, such as a washing machine or other appliance. Since many professional moving companies may charge minimum fees for their services, you could end up paying the same cost to move a refrigerator as you would to move the fridge and a second or third item.

Yes, pea gravel is good for driveways as long as your driveway isn’t built on a hill or any type of slope where it can slide. It’ll settle on a flat surface and create a suitable driveway over time, though some spreading initially will take place. If you're wondering how to make a gravel driveway in a high-rainfall area, using pea gravel could help you to cut down on costs needed for extra drainage solutions.
