I stopped in to Cancos in Hicksville one day to look at tile for our new kitchen project that we…read morewere working on. I did not have any idea what to do with a small piece of quartz that I liked in my hand to show someone for help to match a tile too. There we met a lovely very professional saleswomen named Salika Stinson. She was not only patient with me she was extremely helpful and listened to exactly what my vision was and what I thought I needed to make my kitchen project come together beautifully. We were very tired and confused as to what to do because we had just moved into this home. Salika realized how much this kitchen meant to me and that I needed to feel better about what I was doing in this kitchen and how to match the decor so it goes with the rest of my new home. Not only was she pleasant and patient she knew exactly what tile to show us to go with that small piece of quartz and how to match things to it so that my kitchen would come out as beautiful as I imagined it could be. Everything she suggested was perfect and so beautiful and went together amazingly. I even called her after that day for help and she was just as helpful and kind. Thanks to Salika and her amazing talent for design, knowledge and color my kitchen has turned out so beautiful and matches the rest of my home beautifully. I would recommend Salika to anyone who really does not know where to start with their home project she really is amazing at design and Cancos needs to know she is an asset to their company. They are very lucky to have her in their Hicksville store. I did call to tell them this already. I also want to mention the very polite and helpful young lady named Eugenia who helped us at the register. So friendly and again an asset to Cancos. Our whole experience at the Hicksville store has been wonderful. We are past customers of Cancos in Commack as well. The salespeople and the quality of their tile are the best. They will go above and beyond for you. Thank you Salika and Eugenia for all your help and kindness. Thank you Cancos again for helping us with another beautifully done kitchen.

I could not recommend them more. Also, they're the only place I'll go to for propane. They don't swap out your tank, only fill the ones that you bring, which I love considering I purchased new tanks when I moved into the neighborhood.

I saw Wellwood Memorial's good Yelp reviews so decided to go there. Anthony Spadolini was supportive and friendly as soon as we walked into Wellwood's well organized spacious showroom. When we told Anthony that Frodo was a Papillon with butterfly shaped ears, Anthony and his brother produced two beautiful designs on their computers while we waited. We picked a design, left a small deposit and the head stone was ready 6 weeks later as promised. The rose granite stone they made is even more beautiful than we expected, a true work of art; only the best for our boy! While it isn't easy to make these kinds of arrangements, the Spadolini family and Wellwood Memorials made things go smoothly. Highly recommended for man or "beast".

They made sure every detail and need was addressed quickly and thoroughly throughout the project. The entire crew was kind, courteous, hardworking, and a pleasure to have at my home. Honestly, they are one of the best contractors I've ever worked with. If you are looking for masonry work, retaining walls, pavers, or driveway work, I would absolutely recommend Gold Coast Pavers.

Let me start by saying I'm only giving them 1 star because it is required to post the review. If I…read morecould give them NEGATIVE 5 I would. My GC has been with us for 8 years through 1.5 Million dollars in renovations. We have never had a problem with anyone working on our home through all 3 phases. Everyone gets paid and never waits for a check (or cash). The only exception to our great experience with over a dozen companies is Old Mill. The job is roughly 141K in cost. They were chosen because they install turf and we were using it in the rear of our property. The job was plantings, sprinklers & turf. The entire exterior landscaping minus lighting. Our electrician handled that from our GC. I'm going to list some of the numerous screw ups and the FRAUD they tried to use on our job. They were given professionally drawn landscape plans. There were no change or surprises. 1. The west facing side of our property is full sun exposure and had 32 Thuga Giants installed. They waited until a few days before the first frost to install them. ALL 32 died. They were required to replace them as per our contract. 2. We built a pool house on the property. The sprinkler control box is INSIDE the utility room. The control wire was run through the wall to the exterior BY OLD MILL. All they had to do was mount the box and start the system. For some reason (unexplained) the worker (owners son) decided WITHOUT TALKING TO ANYONE. To drill a NEW 1 Inch hole though the wall to the exterior and run a new wire. STAPLING IT ACROSS A FINISHED PAINTED WALL. Leaving the remainder of the hole unfilled with daylight showing through. Then he rather the bury the wire in the outside, staples it straight across the siding. DESTROYING 15 PIECES OF NEW HARDI PLANK SIDING. We were livid and should have fired them right then and there. But we gave them ANOTHER chance. Strike 2. Next how did they repay our kindness? NEXT UP! 3. Now for the FRAUD. See #1? He is thinking how can he recover the cost of replacing all those trees? The turf. Thats the next phase of the job. When we met with them originally a sample of two different turfs was provided 75 & 60. We paid for 75 and had it in the contract. It is higher quality (thicker, longer & better color). Guess what showed up at our house on installation day? ? You guessed it SIXTY, 60. I saved the samples and made sure I was home the day of installation. It is obvious as soon as you look at it. They we told not to put it down and have the boss come by. HE ADMITTED THE FRAUD!!!!! The job is over 1500 sq ft. Thats how he was going to get US TO BACK DOOR pay for all the trees he had to replace due to his negligence. More on that next. 4. Well it's spring almost summer and 16 of the trees he replaced the first time are now dying. He was notified and asked to check to see if the sprinkler (drip system) was correctly installed and working properly. Who does he send? His son again! We were not home. But we watched the RING camera footage. Kid digs a small whole, feels if the ground is damp. And leaves. Sprinklers are good we are told....Only problem....It monsooned the night before! Fast forward 2 weeks, trees are looking worse. I call him to ask him what's up here? The drip sprinkler is 4 to 6 feet away from the trees and it seems the trees are all dry and dying again. He starts screaming on the phone. I told him he will not be seeing the remaining balance and he can quit if he likes to. Turns out.......The sprinklers were installed wrong! If I could give the company negative stars I would. If you are planning on using them GOOD LUCK. I would not let them take care of a house plant. They are terrible.
