"Kevin is great at communicating with you. He responded to my request on Angie's list and we had a few discussions before he was hired. Kevin always calls you back and keeps in contact with you throughout the entire process. The quality of Kevin's work is excellent and he strives for perfection. He is very particular about the work he does and pays close attention to details. The sidewalk and patio turned out beautiful. I would definitely recommend Kevin and would use him again if I needed any concrete work done."
"Excellent work! Above and beyond. They started the work early, and they made sure to consult on our wishes every step of the way. They even added extra details that were not part of the work to be done that made the brick patio more amazing than it already was. Strongly recommend them!"
"Just for EASY BASIC jobs. I had them remove small decorative stones and replaced with new plants/shrubs. They just dug holes and plants. I asked them to put weed barrier down, which I had. They werenâ t doing it, so I went out to water new plants.......then they started to use it!! Good people, price reasonable for the job"
"Fantastic communication from start to finish. Erick gave my home a fresh and top notch look. At all times I knew he and his crew were experienced and creative. I just knew our place would turn heads. I couldn’t be happier. Thank you to the you all at Erick Pinto Landscap"
"I needed to replace the front steps because they were pulling away from the foundation. I received several quotes and Republic Masonry (Henry) came in with a budget friendly price.
Henry and his co-worker were professional and very detail oriented and cleaned up when the job was complete.
The stairs look wonderful! I would highly recommend Republic Masonry (Henry) for all your cement projects.

Yes, enclosing a patio to create a sunroom or three-season room is often a good idea that adds value to your home. This project increases your home's usable square footage and creates a versatile space for relaxing or entertaining that is filled with natural light and can be used in various weather conditions. Homeowners may see an average return on investment (ROI) of around 70%. The final value added will depend on factors such as the quality of the materials, the level of finish, and the amount of yard space that remains after the enclosure.
You can start your search for a reputable patio company by finding providers in your area with positive ratings online and few, if any, complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Once you narrow down your search, contact the companies and ask for examples of their past work, as well as a list of references. The examples will show you the quality of the work you can expect and how professional the finished product will be, and contacting previous customers will give you an idea of the service you can expect throughout the process.
A covered deck can be a good investment that increases your home value—especially if you live in a hot region with a lot of sun. A covering over the deck means you can get more use out of it, even on the hottest summer days. With a permanent deck covering, you can even add ceiling fans to help cool down your deck for added comfort.
A screened-in porch can add value to your home, with a potential return on investment (ROI) of 70% to 84%. The actual value added depends heavily on several factors. Climate is a major consideration; homes in warm, humid, or buggy areas (like the Southern regions) see the highest ROI. In colder climates, the value is diminished as the unconditioned space is unusable for much of the year. Other factors that influence the return include the quality of materials and construction, the size of the porch, and the local real estate market. While a screened-in porch can enhance curb appeal and attract potential buyers, it is not included in the home's total square footage for appraisal purposes.
A prefab sunroom will last for between 10 and 20 years in most cases, although you could get up to 50 years out of a high-quality prefab sunroom. In addition to material quality, your prefab sunroom’s lifespan will depend on the foundation type and the climate in your area. Extreme weather and expansive soil can decrease the expected life.
