a crack in a brick wall

Matt did a great job on our walkway. Very nice and professional. However, after 4 years, the brick started to crack and crumble. We called Matt and asked if he could come out and look at it. He said yes. He came out and told us he would be in touch. We never heard back from him. That was 4 months ago.

Patio After.

High quality work at a very reasonable price. With Matt you will get responsiveness, flexibility, and expertise. We hired Matt Burns to demo our existing concrete patio, walkway, and retaining wall and install flagstone. Not an easy job considering the space and the extreme heat of August, but Matt and his crew showed up on time every day and impressed us with his incredible work ethic. Aside from the actual installation, Matt helped us through the whole process. We met at the stone yard, talked about what might look best, he made suggestions, and in the end, his eye and experience and our ideas made for a pretty fantastic patio. What initially drew me to choose Matt, was his responsiveness to my calls. He called back right away and communicated with us throughout the whole process. He came up with new ideas as the job was in progress that would enhance the aesthetics and did his best to work within our budget to make those things happen. On top of it all, he's just a super nice guy to be around on the work site.

Before pic. He was able to demo the bottom to get level w floor, and took about a foot off the top to bring to normal height.

Excellent work ethic , very reasonable pricing, high quality work. Discusses project with you at minimum twice a day and it's a true conversation - a collaboration - he just wants you to be happy with the project since you are the one living with it ! Very clean work site throughout the day and at end of day. Very respectful of your home and property. We showed him some picture ideas from the Internet and came up with a great solution. He renovated our fireplace, took down the brick to the floor (see pics we posted of before and after). We wanted a mason because wanted to make sure it was structurally sound and weren't gonna have the chimney collapse. After the demo of the old brick, he put up dry wall , patched it, primed it, we picked out trim, went to tile store and he placed the tile. Works quickly, only took 3 days! Reliable. Highly recommended!

See all

I will start by saying I am a perfectionist, so I have very high expectations when it comes to work…read morebeing done on my home. I have worked with two other contractors recently, and I can honestly say that they don't come even remotely close to the quality of work that Carlos and his crew provided. Carlos and Victor remodeled my entire bathroom, removing and reinstalling new tile, a vanity, mirror, light fixture, toilet and other bathroom accessories in addition to spackling and painting. From start to finish, Carlos demonstrated an extreme attention to detail and a genuine commitment to making sure everything was done properly. He does not cut corners, and he takes the time to do things the right way even when it requires extra effort. For example, he noticed that my bathroom floor was not properly leveled, something that could have easily been overlooked or simply worked around. Instead, he took the time to correct the problem and make sure everything was properly leveled before continuing with the project. He even painted door trim outside of my bathroom to make sure it transitioned well with the bathroom, something that was not his responsibility. That level of care and thoroughness is exactly what you hope for in a contractor. The spackling and painting were absolutely immaculate. I have hired professional painters in the past who did not come close to the quality of the paint job Carlos delivered. Painting is 90% prep work: sanding and spackling. You can tell when a contractor understands the difference prep work makes, and Carlos and his group certainly does. Carlos and his crew were also kind, respectful, professional, and a pleasure to have working in my home. They were extremely conscientious about keeping everything clean throughout the project. In fact, I commented to my husband that my house looked cleaner after they left than it did before they started! Another thing that really stood out to me was the pricing. His prices are more than fair considering the quality of work, attention to detail, and level of care he provides. You TRULY feel that Carlos takes pride in his work and wants his customers to be completely satisfied with the finished product. It is VERY rare to find that these days. I could not be happier with the work C&N Construction LLC did for me. If you are are fussy about the details and looking for a contractor you can trust, who is meticulous, honest, thorough, reasonably priced, and genuinely cares about doing the job right, I would HIGHLY recommend Carlos and his crew. They exceeded my expectations, and I would absolutely use them again for future projects.

I think that Carlos is very educated with construction and/ or a genius about fixing things. Carlos explained why we had a leak in great detail thoroughly before he fixed the problem. We will hire Carlos in the future when we have another problem. He provided us with a written estimate before starting, and he is very thorough with his communication.

Matt wasn't a typical "sales-guy", but an owner who truly cares about customer service and satisfaction! We wanted something a little different on our home, and he was able to come up with ideas and provide visual images for his suggestions. His suggestion did not disappoint! We get compliments daily from neighbors and friends on the work! The first bonus was that instead of moving the start date back, as we were used to with contractors, JMS actually moved our start date up! They dropped the dumpster off at our home the day prior to the start of work, and actually started tearing the current siding down immediately. The team of workers were incredible, and were the same team used to complete the project at our house. The Team worked 11 hours a day, even in the blazing heat. They were never observed to be just hanging out, but working diligently. At the end of every day, they cleaned up entirely! Either Jim or Matt were on-site daily, ensuring things were running smoothly, and checking-in about any concerns we may have had. They were also available via phone/text/email before, throughout, and after the siding and gutters were completed. They chimed in on opinions when asked, and were extremely patient when we made a last minute decision about whether or not we actually wanted shutters installed. Going with JMS to have our siding and gutters installed, is a decision you will not regret! They go through every detail of their work with you ahead of time, and have excellent follow-through! We are SO happy and grateful we went with JMS!! Newtown, PA

Supreme Roofing

Supreme Roofing

(14 reviews)

We live in an old farmhouse with a newer (1983) addition, and where the old roof meets the newer…read moreroof, for some reason, part of it was a flat roof. This flat part of the roof had leaked during major rainstorms about 2-3 times over the last 5 years. Our home warranty company repaired it every time and the repairs would last about 2 years. But earlier this year it leaked again, and our home warranty company advised us that this entire section of our roof needed to be replaced. The plywood underneath was rotten and, to make matters worse, the leak was funneling right down into our newly remodeled master bathroom. So I went to Yelp and reached out to a bunch of local roofing contractors for quotes. I provided pictures from the most recent repair. Some contractors never responded after that. Some said they would come by for quotes and never showed. But my experience with Supreme from the start was impressive, so they ended up getting the job. Noni responded to me via Yelp immediately after I reached out for a quote to say that he was leaving the country the very next day to go on vacation, but that he would be in touch as soon as he returned in a couple weeks. In those two weeks, I had two other roofers come by for estimates. One spent about 5 mins on my roof and sent me an estimate within an hour of leaving. When my husband and I read it, it didn't sound like much more than an elaborate patch job, so we set that one aside. The other roofer was so stumped by the problem that he felt like the best solution was to rip this flat part of the roof out entirely and reconstruct the pitch in this area, which meant he needed to get an architect involved. The potential cost of that freaked us out a little, but it sounded like the best possible solution. Despite following up with him several times, he never responded or provided an estimate. Just when I was losing hope and feeling like I needed to contact a whole new gaggle of roofers, Noni returned from vacation and called me. I had literally forgotten that he was going to call, and I probably would have reminded myself to contact him again when I went back into my Yelp account, but I was so impressed that he remembered to call me! He was up on my roof checking things out within a couple days. And he seemed stumped by the issue of the flat roof too (nobody seemed to understand why the builder chose to make this part of the roof flat), but he asked for a couple days to think through a good, long-lasting solution for us and provide an estimate. We had an estimate in hand the very next day that seemed like a solid, middle-of-the-road solution, with a price tag of less than $5,000. We read and reread this estimate and it really seemed like he would be addressing our issues and then some. He even found an issue with our flashing around our chimney that he offered to fix for us too! So great! Noni gets the job! Now we had to schedule it. Between his existing commitments and our end of summer vacation, and weather, we had to reschedule a couple times. This was not a problem, as Noni was extremely attentive and communicative throughout the process. He was scheduled to start the job the day before Ida came through, but the job he was trying to wrap up went longer than anticipated. When he told me he wasn't going to make it, I expressed concern (ok, I was freaking out) about the rain Ida was going to be bringing, and the already-failing recent repairs to my roof (it had leaked again while we were on vacation). Without hesitation, he offered to come and put a tarp on our roof to hold us over until the next week when they could get here. Well we all know how Ida turned out. Thank god he tarped my roof - and it held!! Not a single drop of water in my new bathroom!! The day after Labor Day, the stars finally aligned, and Noni and his crew were out here around 8am and went till about 6pm. Throughout the day he was communicating with us and keeping us in the loop and sending us pictures. Also, I have to add, he has just an unfailingly positive attitude and always a smile on his face. The absolute nicest, sweetest guy. He was an absolute pleasure to deal with, especially after our run of surly contractors this year. I will never fail to recommend his company to anyone asking for a roofer. And we are already considering giving him the job of repairing or replacing our barn roof. Or new flat roof has a 10yr warranty (not offered by any other contractor) and my husband (also in construction) went up on the roof at the end of the day and was extremely pleased with the workmanship. (Pictures attached!) It is a huge relief to us that we were able to find a good, honest, communicative roofing contractor, and I highly, highly recommend this company for your roofing needs!

So how cool is Noni? I outreached via the website looking for some extra shingles for some bat…read morehouses I was building. He got back to me pronto, left me a stack of shingles, called to assure that I got them, and would accept no payment. I'm guessing with this kind of service I'd go back to him when we need a roof replaced on MY house. That's what I call community support. Thank you!!
