We cater especially to non-commercial and domestic needs in the Lehigh Valley and the surrounding eastern Pennsylvania region. Our mission is to give our clients a simple and streamlined experience where every client project is prioritized and treated with the utmost effort and care. Our family of employees is dedicated to providing our customers with excellent handwork, premier quality of services and the best prices in the Lehigh Valley. And our integrity and dedication to our values is reflected in our growing success from word-of-mouth clientele and we are working hard to grow our community everyday. We are confident that Evolution Construction is the best construction company in the Lehigh Valley.

"On 6/14/2020 we met with company for estimate and decided to proceed with service and a check for $3500 deposit was given. Job estimate form was signed which states that work would be started in 2 weeks. Pete the contractor also stated that they would need 3 days of clear weather. They also stated that it would be the week of 7/4/2020. No contact was made by company during the week of 7/4/2020 . Thomas Barnes writer and customer called company on 7/13/2020 (Monday) and left messages on Zack’s telephone voicemail because Pete’s voicemail was full and remained full throughout this whole experience. We received a return phone call later that day from Zack stating that equipment would be left on our property 7/19/2020(Sunday) and work would be stared on Monday 7/20/2020. On Sunday no equipment was left so I called Zack in early evening. (Pete’s voicemail remained full and no answer). Message was left on Zack’s voicemail inquiring why no equipment on property. No response received Sunday. On Monday 7/20/2020, we called and spoke to Zack and inquired why there was no equipment left on my premises. He informed us again that he would now leave equipment Monday night and would start work Wednesday. AGAIN No equipment left Monday. A text was received at 5:27 pm Monday 7/20 stating “We are coming tomorrow (Tuesday 7/21) and “finish” the job. We sent a text stating that we had dentist appointments however we would leave back door unlocked so that they could open garage doors. On Tuesday 7/21 at 11:15am Pete called my cell stating that he was at my house in driveway. Apparently, there Is poor communication between partners Pete and Zack. We repeated instructions about side door being open. Pete proceeds to ask for a credit card number to purchase asphalt??? we inquired about what he could possibly asking us since we gave them a $3500 deposit on 6/14/2020. Pete then states that’s right you gave us $3500! He also asked if cash could be given for balance so he could pay his workers because a check would take 5 days to clear. I informed him that when we returned home we would discuss further. We arrived home at 2:30 pm and driveway was being done. At approximately 4:45 pm their dump truck broke approximately 20 ft from the end of driveway. Hours were spent trying to fix truck and then manually emptying asphalt. At approximately 7:45pm, Zack came into house for payment. I pointed out areas at garage door that needed touching up and company did touch up. However, at the base of the driveway in the area where dump truck broke it is not completed professionally and is sloppy and apparent that it was rushed due the truck breaking late hour etc. The sides of driveway has piles of asphalt not smoothed out. Small piles are even observed on driveway itself. I pointed this out and Zack assured us that someone would return the next day (Wednesday to correct issues. Zack also stating that for our troubles he would come back in 30 days and topcoat for free. We gave the balance of job in cash which we realize now was a big mistake! He also paid us for the cost of our wheelbarrow that they used that was on side of my shed to put asphalt in and a propane tank of ours that they also used. I’m still trying to understand why a company would not have enough propane that was needed for their job. Note that broken dump truck and roller were also left on my street to be picked up next day also. At approximately 12:30 Pete and 2 other men introduced as one being a mechanic arrived. Pete stated that he was there to fix machine and do touch up. However, all Pete did was get his machinery repaired and loaded quickly. When I questioned about work he called someone on phone I’m assuming Zack and told him I was very dissatisfied because I was assured by Zack that someone was coming back that day to complete work. Pete left quickly despite me asking him to stay to talk to my husband who was on his way home from the store. Also to make matters worse even though the company told us initially that work needed 3 clear days; Tuesday work done, Wednesday torrential rain, Thursday torrential rain. Again unprofessional scheduling with NO regards to weather that we were initially told were needed. As I complete this Friday 7/24 we have yet to hear any thing from this company despite leaving messages Wednesday. I’m sure we could forget about the free topcoat and we will get another company to complete areas that don’t look correct. This is the worst experience that I have ever had with a company and regret ever using them!! Update –7/27/2020 I had another company look at the work that was done . An email was sent by company stating “how sorry to see how poorly the lower section of my driveway was done! At this stage the only thing we could do is maintain what they left you with” Company also stated exactly what we feel which is the worst part is that no contact ever made to correct this poor job due to his machine breaking,fatigue, and rush job at the end."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

In some cases, black stains on brick are caused by organic substances like algae and mold. However, it's more likely that the black spots you're noticing on your bricks come from carbon from vehicle exhaust or soot. Black stains can usually be removed by scrubbing the brick with a brush and masonry cleaner or power washing.

No, you shouldn’t lay bricks directly on dirt. While it might seem like a shortcut, it leads to a patio that shifts, sinks, and becomes a maintenance headache. Dirt expands, contracts, and erodes—none of which mix well with long-term stability. To build something that lasts, excavate the topsoil, compact a layer of crushed gravel, and add a coarse sand-setting bed. This layered base gives your bricks proper support, allows drainage, and helps block weeds from creeping through. Cutting corners here just means you’ll spend more time—and money—repairing your brick patio later.

Choosing the right paint color for a major investment like painting the exterior brick on your house can be a daunting task. Perhaps the most important thing is to find painted brick houses that you like and replicate the look by researching their colors and asking the homeowners for the paint color code. If all else fails, white-painted brick is a timeless, classic look that is unlikely to go out of style.

While painting can certainly change the look of a chimney, you should think twice about giving your brick chimney the old landlord special.

Painting brick is porous, meaning it’s full of tiny holes that can soak up moisture. Those holes also allow it to dry, though. So, when you paint it, you trap any moisture inside, providing an opportunity for mold, mildew, and water damage.

Paint also shows wear faster than naked brick. This means that once you paint a brick surface, you’ll have to keep painting it to maintain a clean look. A paint job is also harder to undo on brick because of its porous nature. Once you paint it, it’s hard to go back without some serious power washing—another added cost.

Handbuilt masonry fireplaces are likely what comes to mind when we think about curling up by the fire at the end of the day. But bricks in the firebox and chimney tend to be heavy, which is not ideal for homes with weak or damaged foundations.

Prefabricated fireboxes come with a full flue and chimney system, significantly reducing the price and installation time. However, if you need to replace the panels down the line, you are locked into the same model or something very similar.
