I had a stamped walkway done by Patriots and it wasn't properly stamped (overlap, squeeze, bad…read morelines, not set properly) and they left a mess of concrete on the pavement edge that I had to chisel off myself. The quote I was provided did not address what I asked for so I had to add extra once they came because they didn't listen to what it was I wanted and started cutting out a completely different area than what I asked for. I also requested a curved walkway but I got straight edges and the front looks too narrow so don't count on them for aesthetics. I will have to tear it all out and redo and pay double in the end ($2900). I told them I was displeased and they were supposed to come back to see what they could do to fix it but never did. It was also hard to get them to come get their garbage (asphalt as shown in picture)left behind but they did come get that after several days of us not being able to use the driveway. They are nice guys but it's not worth it because they take payment up front once the concrete is poured so you can't hold back when the job is complete. Do not pay until the job is done! I would caution anyone to use anyone else but this business because there is no fixing concrete once it is poured, you are just left with an embarrassing mess and holding the bag because you paid for it. For now, I went out and personally hand chiseled all of the squeeze out of every line. I chiseled the edge where it meets my driveway to get all the concrete off my pavement. I am going to retar my driveway to cover some of the mess (even though my home is 1 year old) and I can't do anything about the partial line imprints from not setting the pattern far enough or for the way they changed the angle of the pattern and the lines start going off level. I can't do anything about the places where it is set in overlapping and I have mismatched lines and varying line depths and edges that fade to nothing. When I am able to save up another $2500-3000, I will call a professional company to come back and see if they are able to fix this walkway by pouring over the mess and just leaving it exposed or having it just be pure concrete. It is such a disappointment after saving up for a year to pay to have this walkway done. I am investigating small claims court to recover my expense of having it repaired. I have photos to evidence each of my concerns.

Top quality work! Was extremely impressed by the work they did for us. Was an overall great…read moreexperience and planning to use them again in the near future. Would recommend without a doubt!

First let me say I didn't hire this company and let me tell you why:…read more I bought my house 2 years ago, which the home inspector noticed the concrete chimney cap needed to be replaced (in was cracked). At the time, I found out Dover Masonry had either recently rebuilt the chimney or restored it and agreed to come back and fix it (charged the home owner $750.00 + tax for the repair. They also offered me a free chimney check every two years! (Sounds amazing so far right?) Fast forward two years later, I can hear water dripping behind my fireplace insert. I pull it out to find mold, rust, and standing water (which was dripping down by ash pit and down behind my basement wall where more damage occurred. I climb up on my roof to check my flashing and the cap thinking it might be cracked again. Flashing looks good and the cap looks beautiful. BUT after a closer look at my cap, I realize that although it looks great, it was extremely poorly constructed. It's lips are higher than the middle, so it acts like a swimming pool on the top of my chimney. There is no caulking around the metal flue that comes up through it, so water can seep down in between, and I can't remove the metal rain cap because the connection point is either underneath or inside of the concrete cap. So I call Glen from Dover who tells me he'll come take a look as soon as he can (hopefully that day). Needless to say he doesn't show. So I call him back and follow up the next day, and he tells me all about how busy he is and how water in a chimney is normal. I offer to send him pictures to save him some time. He agrees and I send him some really good pictures of the cap. I get no response, so the next day I call him and here's what he tells me. 1. The metal rain cap blew off (There metal raincap is clearly there). 2. Then he tells me he didn't make the cap (he didn't have time), another company did it, but he'll fix it for me for a case of beer and cost of materials. (I have a reciept from the previous owner saying he replaced it and it was paid for). I sent him the picture of the receipt and explain to him that I am aware that the cap wasn't made properly and that his company made it and installed it. Then I get no response. It's very clear that the company tried to fool me twice. They did poor quality work the first time and the cap cracked, they did poor quality work (although it looked good) the second time and charged the previous owner for it, and then he tried to fool me TWICE! Unfortunately, as a homeowner it's up to you to do your research even if you're not a DIY person to make sure you know how things are supposed to be done, Contractors will take advantage of you every step of the way. Including this one. Please stay clear of this company or at least be REALLY careful.
