I found J&L Concrete to have many positive reviews. I called Jose, the owner of the company and he was onsite to give me an estimate in 30 minutes. The work was completed a week later, and I am totally satisfied with their job. Every part of my experience was positive. The crew arrived on time, did a beautiful job, and cleaned up so well it was hard to see anyone had been here. Jose and his son, Brian kept me informed the whole time. I highly recommend this company for your concrete needs. J&L Concrete 919-795-7674 Sent from Outlook

Our family moved from Maryland to East Raleigh a little over a year ago and we knew from the very…read morebeginning we wanted to expand our living space by creating an outdoor kitchen and entertaining area but the mere thought of trying to find a reputable, customer-service oriented expert to perform the work had me feeling overwhelmed. While we had a vision, I needed a professional with expertise to partner with and help bring that vision to fruition. There's no way I could summarize our positive experience and convey how happy we are with the outcome with our project in a few paragraphs but here goes. A summary of our project was to install (30x25) backyard outdoor paver patio, outdoor grill area/bar, custom paver fire pit, seated bench/wall with custom outdoor lighting, grading and address drainage, install retaining wall and walkway to back fence. This was a substantial job and I'll forever be grateful to have worked with Nicolas Hardscape/Drainage and the entire team on this project. · Consultation: After reading all the positive reviews, we met with Nicolas many months before visiting his showroom twice. He was very generous with his time to come out to our property (3 times) to gain a clear understanding what we wanted and make many helpful design and layout suggestions along the way. We never felt pressured and Nicolas never made us feel like we were wasting his time. It was evident he was a master of his craft but we had a difficult time making the decision to move forward due to the scale of project and financial commitment needed so soon after relocating. After a few more months debating back/forth with my husband and many more phone calls with Nicolas we comfortably made the decision to move forward with our dream plans. · Pricing: As noted above, this was a large project and Nicholas was very upfront on pricing and what it would take to deliver this project and the need to build a contingency fund in the event we came across something unexpected. We obtained quotes from other hardscape companies prior to signing with Nicolas Hardscape and those quotes were less expensive and some competitive but I didn't get a good feeling that the commitment to customer service standards we expected would be there during the project. · Communication: From beginning to end, Nicolas was flexible, maintained open lines of communication and was very responsive to emails and texts. He listened to us as his client and help guide us thru a successful design of a beautiful functional outdoor living space. We hit a snag in our design plan after discovering something out of the ordinary with the layout of our septic system but Nicolas quickly offered solutions to work around those challenges allowing us to achieve the results we wanted. · Craftsmanship/Quality/Attention to Detail: Nicolas assisted us with selection of paver/granite selections to complement our existing exterior and to match our budget. Everything matches beautifully. With the project now complete you can see every level of care and detail he and the team put forth. It's just stunning if I do say so myself J. The duration of the project took approximately 3 weeks and team arrived daily (M-F) consistently ~ 6:45 am and mindful not to get machinery and other equipment going before 8:00 so as not to disturb my neighbors. At the end of each day, the work area was always cleared, free from debris and safe for us and our dog to move around which was extremely important to me. · Customer Service: Our customer service standards are extremely high and I tend to be a bit of a micro-manager. I work from home and was onsite the entire time this project was underway. We received first-class attention by Nicolas Hardscape and his team and our job was a priority until completion. This gave me a great sense of comfort not feeling we were one of many they were trying to manage at one time or that they would cut corners. We've overseen our share of home improvement projects as a homeowners but I could never have forecasted the success we had. We are thrilled with the final results of the project but moreover the attention, care and integrity that was shown to us by the entire team. Many contractors can take a page from their book to put quality and customer service over quantity. Thank you to Nicholas Hardscape/Drainage and entire team for all your hard work, commitment to excellence and customer service. We consider you as part of our family and look forward to having opportunities to get together socially and perhaps find other projects to work on together. I highly recommend I would be remiss w/o thanking those who participated in the review process before me. It's because of your testimonials that led us to finding a team that helped us get it right the first time.

I gave them my original sketches and ideas; they ended up building something way better than I had envisioned.

The build quality is top-notch and feels incredibly solid. If you're looking for a team that's easy to work with and delivers exactly what they promise (and then some), I can't recommend them enough.
