I highly recommend W.R. Walton Contracting, Billerica, for driveway replacement…read more It removed my deteriorating 130 ft asphalt driveway and replaced it with a properly-leveled and thoroughly deep & compacted base, topped with new asphalt, in one day. What I liked: the personal visit by sales; a clear explanation of work to be performed; a timely & detailed quote; and frequent communications in scheduling a convenient project date. Plus, on the day of project work, its Team arrived timely; its team leader introduced himself and confirmed the expected procedures; followed by diligent progress with very synchronized efforts by every team member. At completion, the quality was high, in my opinion. After old asphalt was removed, painstaking and lengthy efforts were taken to re-level, properly slope (for drainage) and firmly compress the underlying base. It was impressive to observe. The Team also completed a thorough cleanup (and no abutting plants, lawn or sidewalks had been disturbed.) Lastly, W.R. Walton's owner visited twice; once mid-morning and then at completion. I much appreciated his attention to detail and the owner's standard of high quality work that his team delivered. What I did not like: nothing. In my vernacular: "damn, they were good." Ken S.

Walton's bid for my latest driveway project, which involved using my architect's plans to widen my driveway, was competitive with the other bids I obtained. I needed to push out the start date of their work due to my contractor not being done yet with renovations, and they were fine with that. They honored their price from the season prior. When spring came, I got a call about a week prior for scheduling and they arrived when they said they would and did the work quickly and professionally. Once the project was over I did have to reach back out to them to be sure the permit was closed but they worked very quickly and had my permit closed within a week, giving me an email confirmation afterwards. I'm very happy with my driveway and the service and support provided.

I interviewed a few masonry companies for repairing spalling brick in my basement. Some wanted to…read moreparge the walls, which was not what I wanted. Some quoted me fairly high prices for the repair, but Martin Forde offered me the best, and most reasonable cost for the job. During our interview Martin struck me as a competent, and fair mason and he is responsive by email, which are valuable traits in a contractor. We scheduled the job, and he and his team showed up right on time. The first thing I learned is that Forde masonry may not have a full time staff. Martin definitely came out to my job periodically to deliver materials, but the masons who did the work were actually two latinos who seemed to be day laborers. They were competent, and very polite as I asked questions in my broken Spanish, but that makes accountability a little more difficult. That became a problem when I was in the basement with another contractor, and I saw one of the mason repairing a hole that was two withes thick. He was just repairing the outward face that I could see, but leaving a whole in the second layer. I asked him about it, so he dropped some mortar into the hole, a few bricks, and kept on with his repair. Yes, it visually looks fine and I would not have noticed if I were not watching as the hole was getting closed up, but that is not what I expect when I hire a professional mason to repair my walls. My job is done though, and I hopefully will not need masonry help for a while. Most of the issues I had are easily fixed with a little more attention to detail, and oversight, so I would encourage others to give Martin a chance if you need masonry help.

Working with Masonworks has been a roller coaster. They are very, very good at the masonry aspect,…read morebut we had a negative experience with everything outside of the excellent stone walls and patio they built for us. They have built beautiful flat stone walls for us in our front and back yards. We were very impressed with them after the first job they did for us in our front yard a few years ago, so we did not even look at other companies when we wanted to spruce up our backyard this year. The garden walls they built in the backyard were once again beautiful. However, as a gardener, I was disappointed and frustrated by the following things: - Our contract included 50/50 loam compost for the new garden beds. During the job, we caught them filling the beds with the grass they had pulled up from our old lawn and asked them to stop doing that. - When I went to start planting, I found that the garden beds had only a layer of new soil but that my shovel quickly hit a lot of big rocks and uncovered old soil, debris, and trash. - They completely trampled and destroyed my established perennial garden, which was located in a garden bed above where the new beds were built. They also broke several pavers in a little garden path I had and removed them without replacing them. - They recommended microclover for my lawn and seeded it for us as part of the contract, but it grew in quite spotty despite us maintaining it properly with daily waterings. I contacted them about the first issue and their initial response was to tell me that the stones I was finding were part of the wall construction - this was not the case. They had someone come out to take a look and concluded that the soil did need to be replaced, which they finally did. It is much better now, though I still have found some large stones in it. However, in the process of solving that issue, they caused the second one - many of the perennials that my mother and I had worked to plant over the past four years were totally destroyed. They offered me a credit to compensate for the loss, or the option to have them reinstall new flowers, but by that point I just didn't want them near my garden anymore so accepted the credit. I didn't bother contacting them about the spotty lawn - I threw down some grass seeds yesterday to try and fill in the gaps. While I appreciated that they did eventually take steps to resolve the issues, I found it quite frustrating to have to keep reaching out just to get them to do what they really should have done in the first place. They never did a final walkthrough as I've seen other contractors do. No apology for destroying my garden. They have a Benjamin Franklin quote, "The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten" - I definitely felt some of that bitterness throughout this process. My conclusion is that they are really excellent masons but do not understand or respect gardens. If you hire them, be prepared to have to deal with that.
