Escamilla Company

Pro: 1. He seems like a nice guy. 2. I think the price is good: $7.5K for replacing the driveway. Con: 1. It look much longer to complete the project than he estimated. 2. Not responsive to questions. He basically won't provide any update or anything like that to you whenever there is delay or when the work is done. I was later told that the team was injured and hospitalized while working, that's why it took so long to have my driveway repaired. Anyway, I didn't know about that until much later. 3. One of the sidings close to the front of the house is chipped, and part of the sprinkler system was broken after the driveway replacement. He said that they didn't cause the damages. I am pretty sure the siding was damaged by a flying concrete when the driveway was taken out. They actually did repaired using wood putty. Not ideal, but not a big deal. I knew the damage to the sprinkler system before I made my full payment, so I withhold $500 from full payment. They initially tried to fix it for me, but it just kept dragging on, and a few weeks later, they decided that they were not the cause of the problem. I hired a sprinkler specialist to come look at it, and the specialist believed that the damaged was done in the driveway repair process, and it would cost me about $900 to fix it. I was really disappointed with the whole process, the amount of time it took, and how not responsive they are. I didn't pay the $500 at the end.

What really sticks out in my mind is the excellent quality of the tile work - it was amazing! He actually went out with us to a tile store and talked to us about the different types of tiles, and I wasn't expecting that! I felt like I couldn't go wrong because he was there with us when we made our decision. I chose an intricate tile pattern, and he spoke with the store to make sure he had a clear understanding on how to install it properly.
