Suli's team were able to complete this large project all before we had family visit during the holidays. It's truly a blessing to know and work with this small family business, especially Maka and his team, they did such an amazing job! You can tell he takes pride in his work. I look forward to working with him in the near future and can't wait to show his talents to friends and family. Thank you so much!

He lied about the progress of the work and asked for payment without completing the work under the agreement within the timeframe promised. Weeks and months have gone by and the work was still incomplete. Basically, this was a breach of contract and he failed to perform the agreed-upon work as outlined in the contract. For months, he was unresponsive despite multiple attempts to communicate to either finish the work or refund the payments made. After 5 months, he finally responded stating that he'll set up a repayment schedule to return the funds due to the breach of contract. Another 4 months have gone by and he has yet to repay any of the advance payments made. During those 4 months, multiple demands were made for the refund of payments made. He has been unresponsive. To date, 9 months later, he has failed to return the payments made. No effort at all to even set up a repayment schedule. His conduct has been unprofessional, unreliable, and has caused significant financial and personal inconvenience. I trusted him and paid him in advance when he asked for more money stating that he needed more funds to cover the rental equipment and pay his people. Never again with Maka. I plan to file a formal complaint with the appropriate licensing board and the BBB.

A few years ago they poured two…read morepatios and a slab for my home, repaired and replaced my failing terrace walls and a retaining wall. Those continue to look good. When my last and biggest retaining wall started to fail I called Leo and Pauline right away. Since it was adjoining my neighbors, we all got together and discussed the project and access. Leo drew up the plan and sent it on for engineering and Pauline shepherded the project through the long permitting process. They took great care in accessing through our neighbors backyards. The wall looks great! Now I can rest assured that the wall is stable. I highly recommend Sam and Son's not only for their quality work but also their friendly and prompt service. Pauline always kept me in the loop for any changes or concerns. Mahalo!

We will definitely contact Derel again should we need any repair/construction type needs! So if ever you need any repairs contact Derel for friendly local, reasonably priced great service!

On the day of the pour, the crew poured the slab and finished it before lunch! A good group of guys and very professional. They cleaned up after themselves when they were done and didn't leave a mess. They finished the concrete with a hand finished, swirl pattern that looks great! It rains pretty hard where I live and they were able to slope the slave so that the rain runoff is directed to drainage grates. I would definitely use these guys again and would highly recommend!

From the beginning, Leo always showed up when he said he would. First, to check the site and provide an estimate. Then second, to perform the demolition. They worked efficiently and finished the job earlier than expected. When I went in to inspect the demolition, I was pleased to see how neatly they did the job. They were careful not to damage the abutting walls and cleanly disconnected the plumbing. This will make it easier when the remodeling takes place. Overall, for the amount of work they did, manpower used and time it took, the price was right. Leo also gave me some suggestions on repairs around the house that were very helpful.

We had a drainage issue from the back of our house with little to no options on how to effectively…read moredrain the area without digging down crazy deep. We had an idea on what we could do and got quotes with that in mind. We got several quotes regarding what we wanted to do (basically lots of concrete) prior to Leo coming, but once he did he suggested a better solution than the one my husband and I proposed! Other companies were professional with great quotes, but I like that Leo thought outside of the box and gave a great solution that actually was cheaper and less work. He was very professional with great communication. Things were delayed due to rain outs on another job of his, and the plan changed as we had another contractor come that was originally scheduled after him. It actually changed the scope of work slightly because, we wanted the drainage to work on tandem with new downspouts and where the spouts were placed wasn't where we thought they'd be! Leo was great and flexible, he even explained why the rain gutters guys suggestion wouldn't work with our property, when the worker suggested something else. He also worked around the changed downspout area, which I should've let them know beforehand, but slipped my mind till an hour in. Thankfully, Leo came up with a great idea again and worked around it. His crew was super fast and the job was done within a day. I'd totally recommend them to anyone.

It was on Sunday and didn't expect they'd be open, so I visited their website to see what services they offer and, as per their website, clicked on the "contact" portion and sent an email requesting an estimate.

No response. I called in the late afternoon and left a message. No response. I called again today (Tuesday) and left another message. No response. Wow, for such great reviews I would have thought I'd at the very least get a response, an email reply, a return phone call; something. Very disappointed and it would make one wonder how their work would turn out if they can't even accomplish this very simple task of getting back to people.
