Finding a good mason takes time and you also need the patience when they are in high demand. Such…read moreis the case with my experience with DiMarco masonry. I was in dire need of pointing for my home and also to address water issues coming off my solid cement staircase. Jim DiMarco came to my home late last year and went over what could be done to help me. He recommended putting in a metal drain below the "lip" of the staircase to reduce run off. When it comes to pointing, the business just doesn't fill in the gaps. Instead they dig out the old cement and insure fresh cement to insure a solid seal. Such was the plan given to me last fall and reflected on my estimate. At that time I was told my project would be done sometime this year. DiMarco masonry called me a day ahead of time to let me know what day and time they would be out and he and his assistant arrived promptly at the scheduled time. I checked in on the work here and there and saw that the work was very thorough and they cleaned up appropriately. Jim DiMarco showed me the metal lip he placed on my concrete block and hopefully it should keep excess water from running down my staircase and onto my newly finished bricks. If I had an issue at any time I was free to call him. I was very pleased with his services and am glad I could find a mason to do a quality job. This business is much in demand at the current time so if you are willing to wait on your project then I highly recommend their services.

We waited a very long time to have our driveway in concrete. It just wasn't in the budget for a…read morevery long time! Finally it was and we decided to take action. We knew of no concrete contractors, and we wanted someone we could totally trust. A.E. Nicholas Concrete Construction was highly recommended to us, as he was/is known for excellent work and owned his business for over 40 years. We called immediately. Many were good but he seemed to be the best and his reviews and testimonials were outstanding. Fully licensed and insured. More years experience than many crews out there and if you don't his team as well they have many lifetimes worth of experience. Jimmy came out and took measurements and photos to get us a detailed quote with their 100% best price guarantee. He was a nice guy and he made the beginning process easy and worry free. We ended up choosing them for the job. We felt comfortable that they had the best price, quality, and qualifications to handle our job. I can honestly say, Chip the owner, was very pleasant to talk with. He answered any of our questions and made us feel at ease. If there were rain delays in the schedule, Chip would always notify us. Chip works right with his guys, and to say they are amazing is an understatement. Chip and his guys were always prompt when beginning their day. When the job was completed they even reseeded our lawn where needed. That is going above and beyond. I'm not quite sure why ratings only go to 5 stars. We definitely give A.E. Nicholas Concrete Construction a 5 star rating! Only wish we could give them a 10 star rating. Even a 20! We recommend A.E. Nicholas Concrete Construction to anyone that would want the best concrete construction team around! Thank you all again for the excellent work and beautiful driveway! We are beyond happy!

A.E. Nicholas Construction Co. is my contractor of choice for concrete projects in western…read morePennsylvania. He has been in business for over 45 years and it is easy to understand why after you work with A.E. "Chip" Nicholas. After 20+ years in the area, it was a pleasure for me to hire a contractor who will work with the customer, is efficient in the entire process from contract to completion and does a GREAT JOB! And a bonus, his entire work crew is hardworking craftsmen at their work and courteous to anyone they meet. My project had two components, the replacement of an existing concrete sidewalk and steps to the front door and the installation of a drainage system to reduce groundwater runoff due to the steep hills near our home in Murrysville, PA. Jimmy, the estimator was prompt and considered the challenges of my specific project at the outset to quote a price, and then Chip called me back right away over the weekend to walk-through the project scope and his plan on construction. Equipment and materials arrived the day before, and when Chip says he will be there as the sun is rising, take him at his word! His team worked efficiently to remove the existing sidewalk preparing the forms for the new concrete and digging the drainage trenches, removing all debris from the site the same day. Then the real excitement of the project began on day 2, when the concrete arrived (they only use high quality product), and when the moved and poured half a mixer truck of concrete, it was a really amazing, choreographed event that should be put to music. No heavy concrete truck came on the property as they moved almost 6 cubic yards of concrete from the road so as not to damage the existing driveway. Finally, after pouring the concrete, they finished the contoured sidewalk beautifully to produce an elegant look to the front of the house. Again, on the French drainage part of the project, they put surface drains and top-quality pipe covered and wrapped with pervious material and stone and backfilled with soil, fertilized grass seed and topping to ensure robust growth of the new lawn, all leading to a deep course stone pit to allow the water to run off slowly and be absorbed into the landscape. Chip even took note of a gutter lead problem and fixed a problem created by a previous deck contractor I had hired earlier this year. He said no charge, and not only was the total project beautiful, but it was also reasonably priced. I would hire A.E. Nicholas to do any project at my home again!
