After several years, I got up the nerve to look up contractors who were willing to finish it for us. I'm so thankful to have found Eric and his company, Salazar Masonry Service. Eric was very responsive from the get go. He was thorough in explaining the process and what was needed to complete the job...and then some! Eric's communication was awesome from the first time I reached out. He was professional, friendly, and professional. He let me know the morning of when he was on his way and progress getting here (his commute was 90 minutes away). I got a quote for material and he offered to call and get a better price and then I called in to pay for it. What a kind gesture! He and his crew were timely and efficient. Eric explained the process and showed us what he was going to do. When he ran out of material, he got more and when he charged us for the material and trip, he didn't price gouge. He showed us the receipt for the additional materials and that is what we paid. We couldn't be more happy with job and Eric's professionalism. He is an artist in his craft and what contractors should be: honest! The retaining wall looks amazing and we're thankful that the 5 year chapter of the wall is closed! Pictures to follow!

Concrete Solutions of Atlanta treated us fairly on the price and made things happen that other…read morecompanies said they couldn't do or would be too difficult for them. Our price was far less than other estimates, and when they were done they actually did more and charged us a little less than the estimate because of some minor delays. They also got out and did it very soon after we told them we wanted their services. Many others had long waits before they could get to our job. They did additional services like a nicer than expected cleanup and addition of pine straw where they had to bring their machines and people between the houses. They got us pine bark where they had dug in to the ground and it was bare. They also did several French drains we didn't expect with the estimate. The reason others didn't want the job was because it is very narrow between the houses. They said they couldn't get their equipment through. Even the demo required a lot of manual labor to remove concrete blocks from the prior retaining wall and blocks from the prior patio because of the narrow area between the homes. Paul's crew found a way instead of a way out of taking on the job. It was hard work, and they did it quickly and efficiently. Our patio looks fantastic and the wall is perfect. I highly recommend Concrete Solutions.

There was also an area by the front door that was an uneven concrete mess with big gaps between the brick and concrete. He came out to attempt to fix these issues . He advised me that I should just have the concrete painted to cover up the uneven color, which will result in more money out of pocket for me, to cover up shoddy work He claims he "fixed" the uneven area by the door. It now looks worse, with different color, texture and a raised area. I have had painters in to look at painting the concrete. They have expressed concern that the "fix" in the front will likely look worse when painted, much like a big drywall patch would look if not smoothed and sanded. I reached out to Skip about trying to rectify this problem area and he just said "Sorry". Claims he did all could do.

Matthew installed a new walkway for us back in 2016, replacing what was likely the original walkway…read morefrom when the house was built in 1980. He did an outstanding job then, and nearly a decade later it still looks just as good as the day it was poured. Not only did it eliminate a major trip hazard, but it also improved the overall appearance of our home. I recently had the chance to speak with Matthew again and reminded him that he installed our walkway all those years ago -- and how impressed I still am with the quality. It's rare to find work that holds up this well even a decade later. If you're considering Complete Concrete & Masonry for any concrete project, I highly recommend reaching out to him for an estimate. Matthew is wonderful to work with, and the durability of his work speaks for itself. I'm still just as happy with our walkway today as I was the day it was installed.

This was one of the most pleasant experiences I have encountered. We received quality repair at a reasonable cost. Matt will get all of our future concrete work. An amazing company!!

I can't speak for others who hired Venator to do other types of work which may be totally different…read morethan the work I required. I hired Venator to install a 4" channel drain that was to replace an original 28 year old 1" drain that was no longer adequate to collect heavy rains and move it away from my patio. While Venator's proposal seemed to be promising to provide a much needed improvement, the end results were a big disappointment. A concrete opening had to be cut in order to receive the new Spee-D Channel drain along a 25' section of my concrete patio, but they cut the opening too small. They proceeded to trim the Spee-D Channel on the bottom to make it fit into the undersized opening, which compromised the integrity of the plastic channel and wasted time focusing on the retrofitting process. All they had to do was to cut an additional 2-3" strip from the concrete and the drain would have dropped into place as the instructions suggested. After numerous attempts to inform the owner, who refused to visit the site to inspect the work, he insisted the job was being done by "Industry Standards". His main communication was via Text. I kept him informed of the shoddy workmanship with the hopes he would come by to see for himself. That was not on his agenda, even after expressing my dissatisfaction with the job as it was proceeding. I was not given a dedicated day for the work to be done. It seemed like my job was fitted in after the workers finished on a previous job. The two workers showed up at 6pm on day one and worked until 8:30pm. Not being able to finish, they had to return the next day at 3pm and worked until 8pm. The two worked hard doing their job but it seemed like this was an exploration, not a familiar experience for them. The left photo is what the installation should look like if done correctly and the right photo is what was installed, after having to cut the bottom flange on the channel drain to force it into the opening in the ground. Unfortunately, you never know what results you will get from a vendor until the job is completed. I am sorry I hired Venator for this job and I do not recommend him for this type of work.

I had a great experience with Nick Stamathis from AquaGuard. He was personable, sincere,…read moreknowledgeable, and, most importantly, trustworthy. He took the time to show me the cracks in my foundation and clearly explained why my home would benefit from SettleStop Push Piers. I've been a customer of AquaGuard for four years, ever since they encapsulated my crawlspace. I've been very satisfied with both their initial work and the annual servicing since then. In fact, it was during one of these routine visits that the foundation issue was identified. I'm grateful Nick caught the problem early and put together a clear plan to stop the settling before it gets worse. It's reassuring to work with a company that stays proactive and stands behind their service.

Extremely Disappointed - Poor Encapsulation Work Caused Major Structural Damage & No Response…read more In 2017, AquaGuard installed a full crawlspace encapsulation in our home in Peachtree City. Fast forward to 2026: an independent inspection revealed that they installed the vapor barrier directly over the bases of our original metal support posts under the main girders. This trapped moisture against the posts, causing severe rust, corrosion, and weakening that is now leading to significant settlement and sagging floors throughout the house. A reputable local company (American Crawlspace Solutions) confirmed this damage is directly tied to AquaGuard's improper installation. They quoted over $11,000 to replace 20 rusted posts with new adjustable supports just to stabilize the home and prevent further failure. This is a serious safety issue that could have been avoided with proper installation techniques (like protecting or elevating the post bases). I have reached out multiple times via email (including detailed follow-ups with photos and the ACS report attached) requesting they review under their "lifetime warranty," send an inspector, or at least respond. Crickets. No reply, no report, no accountability. If you're considering AquaGuard for encapsulation or foundation work in the Atlanta area, think twice. Their work caused thousands in damage, and when confronted, they ignore customers. Very poor customer service and questionable workmanship. I now have to pay another company to fix what they broke. Avoid if possible - not worth the risk. #AquaGuard #CrawlspaceEncapsulation #FoundationRepair #PeachtreeCityGA #AtlantaHomeIssues
