His team came out and - wow! - they set up scaffolding, covered our grill and outdoor furniture (to protect from mortar dust), ground out the old mortar, meticulously re-mortared the top section (yes, I climbed up to inspect closely), re-sealed the flu and cleaned up all in one day. The finished product looks great and, most important, no more backdraft! We couldn't be happier with the quality and pricing. Great job!!!

I recently moved into a flip and, to both of our surprise, discovered feet of concrete and bricks stuffed in the middle of my chimney -- meaning my hot water heater and gas line weren't venting properly. Oscar and his team quite literally saved my life. When you buy a new home, you never know what surprises are waiting behind the walls. Oscar went above and beyond to make sure I was safe, that the job was done correctly, and that they'd leave with absolutely no trace they were ever there. Mid-project, they had to open a wall, and not only did they patch the drywall, but they painted it, too -- you'd never know it was touched. He took the time to explain everything in detail so I could actually understand the process, documented every step, and made me feel like a true partner in the project. One thing he said that really stuck with me was: "I know you own the house, but it's our fireplace now." That level of care and pride in his work says it all. Oscar is the definition of integrity, skill, and kindness. If you're lucky enough to get on his schedule, you're in the best hands possible. I can't recommend him highly enough.

The driveway is large so I was skeptical anybody would be able to handle this project, but these guys provided an estimate that I was comfortable with and hired them on the spot. Paul and his guys showed up on time every day and made sure to clean up everything at the end of the day. Absolutely no complaints so I would have no problem recommending these guys to all my neighbors The price was fair and the quality was high, so If you want to hire somebody who's honest Paul is the guy! Will definitely be calling home for a patio project in the near future!

After getting proposals from 5 contractors, we decided to go with LIMC for the project. Tommy and his son came by twice to ensure the measurements are correct and their proposal is one of the most competitive in terms of pricing. I wanted to have a concrete base for the pavers because my previous patio was set on regular gravel base and had settled unevenly after just two years. The whole project took about two weeks from start to finish. Tommy's crew worked efficiently without cutting any corners. You can definitely tell that they are experienced with concrete and masonry. We decided to go with the Cambridge Toffee Onyx ledgestone pavers with Mocha Border. For the driveway, we went with graphite colored concrete with pavers circle and apron. The result was spectacular. I have gotten so many compliments from neighbors on my driveway. The blue stone stoops were excellent as well. In conclusion, Tommy and his men did a fantastic job with the patio, walkway, stoops and driveway. I highly recommend LIMC.

Regardless that Milton provided us the best quote, the work Milton and his team had done for the entry stoop and walkway pavers is art piece. He is reliable, responsible, and creativity.

The work they do is not only about the look but also thinking beyond the structure, craftsmanships, and Professional. BTW, I like all of their professional power tools, especially the masonry table saw that ensure the precise of every block cut.

Based on Yelp reviews we then called Devin from Flawless Masonry & Landscape who told us a circular driveway was absolutely doable! We were so impressed with Devin's design skills (including clear scaled digitized plans) and experience that we hired him on the spot. Plus Flawless's pricing was lower than other quotes we got. Icing on the cake. Then the pandemic hit so the job was delayed (NY orders), but Flawless came through after re-opening and did a superb job for us. The new driveway is both beautiful and functional, even our crabby neighbors like it! It was a big job but Flawless's skilled and friendly crew managed to finish in a week. Tiffany from the office was super responsive and polite throughout the project, keeping me in the loop at all times. Thank you Flawless for your integrity, talent and hard work!

I remember Sal coming over and recommending a landscape designer to see what was possible, this delayed the process but it was absolutely the right call. They were in the middle for pricing but sals local knowledge and no nonsense attitude were key factors for me. I got stacci confirmed and sal and his team got to work. The staff is top notch and did an amazing job, not just for the main driveway expansion job, but also with reconfiguring my steps (towards the top) to be wider and more welcoming (which I didn't even have specs for!). Sal is full of good ideas and executes beyond expectations, he has a critical eye and will have his guys redo it if he doesn't like it. I highly recommend Stasi and can see why others do as well.

I want to continue my review of this business. After I had updated the review of the work that was…read moredone to my home Yesterday I noticed that the concrete the Stasi Brothers did, was cracked. I called and spoke to Erin and Kelly about the issue and they sent Sal to look at the crack. To my surprise all the nice things I said about Sal went out the window when he rudely said 'cant do anything, let me me know when it gets bigger'. Everything I googled on cracks in Cement state "if it's a headline crack it can be fixed easily and Not to wait till it gets larger" ...more or larger cracks are more difficult to repair" and more costly. I know that this was not the Sal I knew. He sounded more like his uncle Joe, arrogant and disrespectful. In the mean time Joe, do the right thing and let YOUR workers come and seal the crack. This is your fault. I told Sal when they poured the cement that the root of the tree needed to be cut out but you and your men said it didn't matter. I only redid the block of cement because they were lifting a little. The old cement was there for 30 years and had NO cracks. Just a little lift at seam. You are a business you need to take care of your customers. Btw sand that was put between nicklock pavers is still missing and you charged me over 11,000 for the work that has overspilled cement on pavers. I didn't even complain about that last October. If you want me to update this review I recommend that Joe tells Sal to fix this issue. ​

He is one of the nicest, most genuine people you could ever work with. He really went out of his way to make sure we were happy and comfortable throughout the whole process. His Forman Frankie and the entire crew were just as amazing--hardworking, respectful, and unbelievably skilled. Even when we had hiccups (which had nothing to do with their work), Marty and his team worked around our schedule without a single complaint. They delivered everything they promised and so much more. The finished project came out better than we ever dreamed, and I can honestly say we couldn't be happier. It's rare these days to find a company that cares this much about their customers, but Marty and his team truly do. We will 100% use MJD Construction again for future projects. If you're thinking of hiring someone, stop looking--this is the company you want. HIGHLY recommend!

There is no better compliment to a Craftsman than repeat business and referrals. I start here…read morebecause we recently brought MJD back in for our second job. We met Marty by a referral when looking to update the front of our home. Our original pavers were 40+ years old. We loved the unique shape and style but needed a refresh. From start to finish, Marty was punctual, communicated well, delivered beautiful stone work and offered very competitive pricing. We used a combination of bluestone, cobblestone, culturestone and Cambridge cobalt pavers. MJD nailed the half moon shape and retained the look we adored and even added a planters box to highlight tree we have out front. We loved it so much, fast forward one year later we brought back MJD for our back patio. Work included steppingstones, full "figure 8" pool coping and pavers including plumbing (which MJD coordinated), columns to our bar, and a planters box. MJD also took down two trees, graded and seeded to get us ready for next year. The results speak for them themselves. In short, give Marty a call, he does it all! Best, Myles

Great service, quick and reliable. Everything you expect from such a company. I've ordered several…read moresupplies; pavers, bricks, sand, top soil, rca, poly sand, etc. My only complaint is the return policy, I wish they would mention there's no return on even the retail purchases. Ex: G2 poly sand bags I understand no returns on pavers, bricks, dirt, things like that. But for things that still have an actual price tag, that's a bit much! Never the less, if I was aware of this with an obvious sign or a comment from the cashier before purchasing, then I wouldn't of purchased extra material. The sad part is when I asked if they take returns, they said "no, its on the receipt." BUT this is literally after making the purchase Im aware of this. It would be smarter to mention this before purchasing, not after the facts! I thought that bit was a little distasteful from a business point of view. I still recommend this place. But be sure to only order what you need. Don't order the "extras" for the just incase event in your projects. (That is only for whatever they sell inside the store.) Bottom line: Project is done! Was left with 3 extra bags of poly sand (no return/my complaint) and a few pavers and bricks (also no return, but this part was expected).

We needed concrete put down in our garage as well as a support beam in the center. Levan gave us a quote and we expected the work to be done professionally and done well. Unfortunately, we were in for a rude awakening. You will see in the attached photos that the concrete dried in a sloppy uneven way. He told us the color would even out in a few days and it never did. He also told us he would put up a pressure treated beam to support the center of our garage. My husband went to stain the wooden beam today and there were cracks in the wood (so definitely not pressure treated) and the side beams had major gaps and added no further support. See photos attached. Additionally, the day the work was done they dumped wet concrete on the side of our driveway, saying they would come get it once it dried. We had texts full of excuses as to why they couldn't clean up the concrete for a full week. After we kept texting, he finally came and cleaned it up. There is a photo of the remnants of that as well. Not to mention, photos of the cement footprints left on our driveway. Oh and to top it all off, they dumped one of their wheelbarrows on a neighbor's property. I guess they saw it was heavily wooded so why not dump it there? Lastly, I took a screenshot of the text I received from Levan after confronting him about the wooden beam that was poorly constructed in our garage. He told us "we got what we paid for." We never haggled for a price. He gave us one price and we agreed. He didn't tell us we were agreeing to half assed work! Very unprofessional!
