Bob Melcher and his team were simply awesome from start to finish! During the bidding process, Bob…read morereviewed the competitive quotes and helped me understand what the others were selling and what I really needed for our project. His quote was competitive, and I had the sense that he was being candid and honest with his estimates. Day of the project they showed up before 7:00AM and began promptly, tearing out three layers of asphalt, grading and adding necessary gravel. By 10:30AM the concrete was delivered and at 3:00PM the project was completed. The next day a few of the crew showed up and saw cut the driveway to prevent cracking. While they were working, several neighbors stopped by to look at the project and commented on the neatness and efficiency of their work. Based on the results, I'm sure I'll be seeing Metropolitan Concrete in the neighborhood for the next few months!

Chad the owner of this "business" should not even be in business. He cuts corners and does unsafe…read morework to give you a good price and make you believe the job is getting done right. My husband and I hired him when we first bought our house and he could never pass the city inspections. For a year he made excuses and kept dragging us along on why he couldn't come out to finish the job, do it correctly, pass the inspection, etc. Blaming everyone else for his mistakes. Even telling the city inspector she doesn't know what she's talking about and was so incredibly unprofessional. We ended up taking him to court and winning. We knew we'd never see a dime from him so we had to go through the place he was bonded with and got the payout that way. We had so many inspections after the work he did and all three different companies said our house could have went up in flames. He didn't do one thing right and actually caused more work for the next person. Please if you go with him make sure he is even still bonded. Call Westfield and make sure they didn't cancel him because the insurers I spoke to said they would possibly do that since they had to pay us and he wouldn't get back to them. Please also if you go with him make sure to get a real company to come out and check his work. I am not a spiteful person and hate writing bad reviews. I really had to think about putting this up but if it means preventing another person or family from going through this, I think it's worth it. Adding on after your post* This was supposed to be a 1 day job you told me 2 at the very most. We were very and I mean very patient, understanding, and sympathetic to every single family problem and other excuse you had (and trust me there was always one in play) as to why this job could not get done from the end of June to December. The clay flue tiles needed to be knocked out and a different insulation was required because there were cracks in the clay flue tiles. You mortared our flue open in the middle of winter and we lost all our heat downstairs. All the mortar kept crumbling down the chimney and you made another excuse how your machine was broken and you were going to get a mortar gun to make it easier. We had other companies come out and said you forced an unfit liner down and damaged it doing so. This is just a small list of everything that went wrong. You were told multiple times what needed to be done from the inspector and not only argued with her but us the customers trying to belittle and make everyone else look bad and stupid. Really showing your anger problems. I have all of the texts since day one and the day of court you even tried to get out of that.

love these guys. I converted a wood fireplace to gas logs.

I would not work with this company!!…read more I had an extremely frustrating experience with this company. I met with Craig at the job site and got an estimate of $6,000, which we agreed upon. He asked for a $2,000 deposit, which I paid on August 12th. He said he would start the work within the next week or two, but after that, I was met with excuse after excuse whenever I checked in. Every time I followed up, I got the brush-off. Finally, after months of waiting and no progress, I requested a refund on November 15th. It's now January 6th, and I still haven't received my money back. I've been given numerous reasons for the delay - the check is "in the mail," then "I'll drop it off this weekend," but nothing ever materializes. At this point, I have no choice but to consider legal action to recover my money. This has been a completely unprofessional and frustrating experience. I would strongly advise staying away from this company - it's been a scam from start to finish. On Jan 8th, I finally received a check for my deposit amount.

I needed a stack of downed branches (branches were an inch or two thick each and together stacked a few feet high and about 6ft wide) moved a few yards away to free up some stairs on a hill. I was told his minimum is $800 but he would do this for 500 with two guys. I ended up trying to do it myself and was able to move it much more easily than anticipated in only an hour and a half. Another company quoted me $225 for this job which is much more reasonable though still higher than I think it's worth. Just beware of price gouging with this company.
