Tamara has a good design aesthetic. Her design fees and estimate came out to be the most expensive of the three companies I solicited, but she was able to do the iron fence work we needed, had experience working in historic dc neighborhoods, and seemed in general to be a good fit. Being a new homeowner in DC, I knew my property was in a historic district and informed potential landscapers. Tamara assured me the proposed landscape work did not need permitting since we were not laying concrete. However, we received a stop work order shortly after the project started. It turned out my entire yard was public space and we needed to get permits for all of the work. Tamara tried to work with DCRA and the historic board, but didn't get very far and suggested we abandon significant parts of the project. I ended up having to do the majority of the legwork - getting signatures from neighbors for approval, presenting to the ANC council to gain support for the design, and finally secured approval for a design that was very close to what we originally wanted after 5 months. Tamara's touted experience with historic neighborhoods was one of the main reasons why I hired her, but in the end she provided little understanding of regulation and offered almost no guidance navigating the entire process. The issues did not end after securing the work permits. The slope of the small 9' x 12' patio installed in the side yard was too steep. It took many conversations with Tamara - from showing her the measured slope to even placing chairs on the patio - for her to finally concede that it was indeed too steep and send her sub back out to fix it. They improved it only slightly and the patio is still not graded correctly. Not only can you feel the slope when sitting on furniture, there is a visible slant to any liquid placed on top of the patio table. Finally, all of the ten rose bushes HGD put in started to grow strangely at the same time shortly after they were planted. Tamara did not respond to my first email asking her if there was something wrong with the roses. After my landscaper confirmed it was rose rosette, I tried contacting Tamara to see if there was any remedy. She confirmed the roses were in fact diseased, but it was not her fault since other roses she planted from the same nursery were fine and it must of come from other diseased roses in the neighborhood. Now, I run in my neighborhood regularly and I'm constantly on the lookout for diseased knockout roses to let their owners know, but have yet to find any. The roses were also planted on different sides of the house and all showed symptoms at the same time. This isn't definitive proof, but like any other issue that came up during the project, Tamara would not concede any culpability whatsoever. When I told her I was not happy with her service, her response was: "Thanks for you email. I'm sorry that you're disappointed. I felt that I made every effort to go over and above given the complexities of your project. Good luck in your next project." I would've been happy if she just offered to take the diseased roses out, or offered a small credit for additional service (which she knew were in my plans)... basically, I would've been satisfied with anything at all. I'm usually a laid back client with an expectation for good work. I didn't make much of a fuss having to spend 5 months of my time to secure the necessary permits, but grading a patio correctly and standing behind your plants? Apparently that's too complicated. Tamara obviously doesn't care about you as a client and wants to get out of a project as soon as it's done.
We had a really unpleasant experience with another local concrete company (TDJ Concrete OF Stafford VA, see review on Angie's List), who abandoned our job and took half of our money, leaving us with warped concrete forms and gravel. Our backyard was a muddy, gravel mess and was completely unusable for 5 months. As soon as we realized TDJ was not coming back, we contracted with Greystone Masonry of Stafford VA, and got on their schedule. Due to the busy time of year (Summer 2014) we had to wait 3 months for Greystone to be able to complete the project.
Greystone came in and completed the job with beautiful results. They were easy to work with, and we really loved their beautiful showroom. Greystone did not try to price gouge us, even though they knew we were in a tough spot. They were reasonably priced. Most importantly, the end result was an absolutely perfect patio. Greystone has experienced, skilled concrete masons.
Working with concrete is a time sensitive process. We would not recommend going with a small, amateur company for this reason. If you are looking for a company to install a high quality, beautiful stamped concrete patio, we highly recommend Greystone Masonry!!
We hired Dave and Melanie Joyce of TDJ Concrete to install a large (~1300 sq ft) stamped concrete patio. We paid 50% + of the project cost in advance. They had the patio formed and had gravel laid, but then began to balk at complying with the terms of our agreement (using rebar, using color hardener, demanding payment in full before completion of project) and when we did not agree to pay the remaining balance in full, in advance, they abandoned the job, told us we were released from the contract and said to find someone else to finish it. They promised to return a majority of our paid moneys ($8600+), but never did so and never contacted us again or returned to the job.
We were left with a dangerous back yard that was unusable for over 5 months, and forced us to find another contractor at the height of the patio pouring season. The subsequent contractor only gave us a $1.00 per sq. ft. credit for the work TDJ had left behind. We had to wait almost 4 months (until September) to be able to get our project completed.
NOTE: Dave Joyce only held a Class C license, and actually was working beyond the dollar limit on his license ($10,000).
Based on our experience with TDJ Concrete, we would not recommend them.
The project went very well! Elmer and his team arrived on time and efficiently assembled a beautiful patio. They rebuilt the rock walls and ensured that it had proper drainage from behind the wall. The walls look so much better they way they rebuilt them! The patio itself is gorgeous and fits...

Workers arrived as promised. Worked very clean, including use of wet saw to cut tile so little dust in house or in neighbor's yard. Patio and fence were good quality material and excellent workmanship. Would recommend without reservations.

"Next Level did a sprinkler system installation for me. Julian, the point person and (I think) owner for Next Level, communicated well throughout the process. He took his time to explain the technology, his reasoning for the proposal, the timeline, and the options and tradeoffs. His quote was the most competitive among the 4 I received, and he took care of everything. We had a couple of hiccups due to weather, but he otherwise delivered on the schedule he promised the day he provided the quote. The team was fast (completed the project in about 6 hours) and very neat. Very happy with the outcome."

"ET Landscaping had done such an excellent job building a series of garden terraces at my daughter’s house in Annandale a few years ago that I was looking forward to an opportunity to have them work at my own home, also in Annandale.

FAQs for concrete patio work projects in Linton Hall, VA
Concrete repair costs range anywhere from about $0.10 to $0.15 per linear foot to fill minor cracks, to about $6 to $14 per square foot to replace damaged concrete slabs. Repair costs vary widely depending on the size and type of work needed. For example, replacing 100 square feet of driveway will cost between $600 to $1,400, on average.
The average cost of mudjacking is around $5per square foot of concrete, with most concrete leveling jobs totaling between $3 and $8per square foot. The typical cost to fix a sinking portion of concrete slab with mudjacking is around $1,100. The price you’ll pay depends on the size of the concrete slab you need to be leveled, the accessibility of the slab, and the type of material your contractor uses beneath the concrete to lift it back into place.
A paver patio can last anywhere from 20 to 100 years, depending on the type of pavers and how well you maintain them.
Travertine pavers are usually the most durable, lasting 100 years or more, with regular maintenance. Concrete brick pavers have a variety of shapes and colors available and typically last 25 to 50 years. Traditional brick pavers have a more classic look, lasting around 20 years with proper maintenance.
In most cases, no, mudjacking is not possible as a DIY job. Not only do you need specialized equipment to cut into your slab and pump the cementitious material underneath it, but it’s also a challenging process, and the consequences of making mistakes include additional structural damage to your home. It’s possible to rent mudjacking equipment to attempt a DIY repair, but the risk of added property damage usually isn’t worth the money you’ll save on labor, especially if the concrete you’re lifting is a part of your home’s foundation.
The cost of a paver patio is $3,800 for a 280-square-foot patio on average. Depending on the patio size, paver material, and design complexity, this cost can range from $2,400 to $7,000 or more.
The size of your patio is a significant factor in the project’s overall cost. If you're building a smaller patio of only 60 square feet, your costs will be closer to $480 to $1,500. If you want a more luxurious 900-square-foot patio, you'll spend closer to $7,200 to $22,500.
