We got names of contractors that the store provided and I contacted them immediately for a quote. We made appointments for both, but they never showed up. Not a good sign. We found Gonzalez Carpentry on Angie's List and I gave Gus a call. We made an appointment, and Gus arrived right on time. He gave us a quote for the doors and we agreed to the quote. Gus and his carpenters showed up on time and did a very good job with the doors. We did have one small problem with one of the doors, but Gus came back quickly and fixed the problem. We were also considering changing out our counter tops in the kitchen and bathrooms. Gus recommended that we check with a local granite/tile store, so we went there and picked out our new counter top material and back-splash tile. Gus was acting as the general contractor for the counter-top company and plumbers. We had a few problems with the counter-top company, but a few phone calls to Gus, and things got back on track. Gus was very responsive to our needs and he looked out for us by discussing our concerns with the other contractors.. Gonzales Carpentry isn't the cheapest contractor in the area, and I knew that going into the projects. However, the cheapest isn't usually the best, and we wanted quality workmanship. Gus provided quality workmanship and a high level of professionalism. I would highly recommend hiring Gus Gonzalez for for any home or business projects that you may have. If Gus doesn't have the expertise for certain projects, he knows reputable people that can, and he will ensure that the work is done in a professional manner.

We had been out for the night visiting a relative and returned the next day to a broken sliding patio door. Someone had kicked/pushed the glass off its frame to enter the home. By pushing in the glass on the sliding door, it avoided tripping the alarm door sensor. Fortunately, however, the trespasser managed to trip the motion sensor forcing him/her to leave empty handed. At this point, we had two choices. One, we could place the glass back on the door frame with silicon and risk a repeat of the incident. Two, we could replace the door with a French door so that door entry sensor couldn't be easily bypassed. We chose the second option. The next day, we were in the market for a contractor to handle the work. I called about five companies and the lowest quote we received was about $1,200.00 for materials, the removal of the old door and installation of the new one. Through our business of renting homes, we heard about one of our tenant's relative, Julio Johnson, and decided to give him a call. Mr. Johnson is a licensed general contractor and has 32 years of construction experience. He arrived 15 minutes early!!! on a Sunday morning!!! to quote the installation of the new patio door. He sat us down and explained the amount of work that had to be done. Apparently, the doors that were used in 1977 (when this home was built) heights didn't match up with the heights of the new French doors available at Lowes and Home Depot. The difference was a 2" height, and he explained that he would have to adjust the door frame to allow the new sized door. I have to admit, as he was talking, it started to make sense why other companies were charging well over a thousand to do the job. Well, long story shot, he quoted us $550.00 for the supplies and installation. Mr. Johnson did an amazing job. The new door looks like it was built with the home. The finish on the wood work, paint and the overall installation make it obvious that he has a passion for this kind of work."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/tx/mcallen/south-texas-home-renovations-llc-reviews-7495716.htm"},"position":8},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Ruben Leal","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"TX","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"SANDRA B."},"reviewBody":"Due to damage caused by a hail storm we had to have work done on our roof. The hail broke and chipped the facia boards, and had to be replaced. The contractor we employed to replace the facia boards did not do caulking or painting, so we were tasked with finding a painter. Mr. Leal had left a business card with us a week prior, so we decided to check his work. He had painted several houses in our neighbor and we were amazed and how good his work was. We contacted Mr. Leal and asked him for an estimate. We called 2 other painters for estimates and based on the quality of work we had seen Mr. Leal do, and his bid we decided to hire him. Mr. Leal and his crew arrived promptly at 8:30 am as agreed by both parties. He stayed in contact with us keeping us informed of their progress. The crew prepped the areas of our house for painting by power washing. They caulked and applied primer to new wood and applied 2 coats of top quality paint. Mr. Leal and his crew were puntual, efficient, professional and friendly. They took extra measures to insure that if paint spilled it would not damage the concrete or walkway to our front door and patio. These gentlemen did this job in 100+ degree temperatures and still, they did an outstanding job.

Patio Service reviews from real Angi homeowners in San Benito, TX
I've called this company back several times to do more work on my house. This company did a great job remodeling my shower. I would recommend them for any and all jobs around your home. They've done my fence, my kitchen sink, and next they're coming out to do my patio doors.
The crew did a great job stripping a vaulted popcorn ceiling, installing wood tile, painting and replacing trim in our living room. They were punctual, clean and quick, but thorough. The attention to detail was impressive. We brought them back for exterior work, replacing rotten wood all over...

Yes, installing a patio will usually improve home value, as outdoor entertainment areas are usually quite desirable and make your home more visually appealing. A paver patio usually comes with an impressive ROI of around 80%, while concrete patios should fall between 60% and 70%. Paver patios are considered more desirable and valuable because most home buyers prefer how they look, and they won’t raise your property taxes as a permanent concrete patio would.
Most professionals will take two to three weeks to install a patio and return your yard to its previous condition. The timeline for your patio installation will depend on several factors, though, including landscaping features your installer needs to navigate around, the type of patio you’re having installed, and how long any add-ons, like outdoor kitchens, take to complete. The size of your patio will also play a role in how long it takes, so plan to keep pets and children out of your yard for longer if you’re installing an oversized patio.
The average cost of a paver patio is around $3,800 for a standard, 280-square-foot patio, but prices commonly range from $2,400 up to $7,000, depending on the size, the type of paver you choose, and any add-ons you opt for. The design and shape of your patio can also increase labor costs if your patio installer needs to cut curves in pavers or spend time arranging them in a specific pattern. Some additional costs to consider include site preparation and excavation, as well as additional materials, like concrete, crushed gravel, and drainage equipment.
Some types of patios—usually those that require a concrete foundation—will need permits, while others—like paver patios, which aren’t considered permanent additions—generally do not. However, there are exceptions based on the size of your patio and where you live. We recommend having a professional patio installer determine whether you need permits. Your installer will also be able to pull permits for you, saving you time and energy.
