He worked during the hottest time of the summer but didn't let that slow him down. He is a perfectionist, if he didn't like it he'd fix it. The price was definitely fair. I found him through Google and so glad to have found someone honest and trustworthy who wasn't trying to nickle and dime me to death. Most importantly, my heating bill was considerably lower after getting this work done. And he referred me to his buddy who did the flashing who went above and beyond at a reasonable cost. You'll be glad if you choose G&A

I can tell you that not only are they the best at what they do, but it also helps to deal w/ genuine people who actually care about their craft, and get the job done right. From being on time to explaining in detail everything they were going to do, it was the smoothest transition dealing with the situation at hand. I don't understand how they don't have any reviews yet. Their craftsmanship is by far the best I have seen in the northeast. They ripped out our whole front and shared steps in a Mayfair row home. Built a new retaining wall and installed steps and also new concrete out in the back drive. If you are looking for concrete work to be done look no further than Luigi and Gabriele. We have recently moved and our realtor couldn't believe all the compliments we were receiving on our brand new front. We even had people knock on our door and ask who we used to get it done. Thanks again Luigi!!

After he broke my wall down he told me he was gonna need another 1k because of material. This was bs because we did the calculation before the start of work and I'm sure he had it planned to increase the price after wall went down. I paid it. They damaged my driveway and didn't fix it. The driveway doesn't look appealing how they left it. They put the wall up took the money and left. They were rude to my wife. I was out of state at the time so my wife was handling the management of this project mostly. The wall looks nice but lots of issues here for me. I give them a 2 for these reasons and will be using another company for future projects.

I'm going to start this off with positive vibes. Mike Gallagher was very nice and prompt with…read morereturning calls. He came right out to give us a quote, which was a very reasonable quote. But the whole process which has been going on for over a month now has been terrible. Our wall was falling and the steps were separating from the wall. So we decided to finally get them redone. We had steps and a stone wall. We met with Mike and he gave us options of material for the wall. We picked bricks and of course they weren't in stock so we asked to wait for them to be in stock rather than picking new ones. Mike was fine with that. Him and his crew started with the demo. They learned that our original wall didn't have a footer so he had to add a footer to the price. Okay. Not a problem. Paid a deposit via his website which was easy. He started to do the steps. Looking at them they were uneven and crooked. Mike claimed they weren't done and then decided he wanted to bull nose the steps. Instead of demoing the steps completely, he chipped up the first layer and added new concrete to add the bull nose and level them out. They look absolutely horrible. They are two different colors. Not smooth and still uneven. Might i also add that they claimed steps are their specialty. The wall looked nice when they were done with it. But the more you look at it you began to notice small things that made you say, hmmm... The new wall was smaller than our original wall. And one side was shorter than our original wall. Okay. Whatever. There also was only one or two mesh areas for water to drain. Paid him in full PLUS a nice tip. Thought, okay. Whatever. We'll fix the steps next yr. But after our first rain storm issues began to arrise. We noticed that one of the caps on the wall was cracked. Which then soon broke. We also noticed that the caps are NOT secured. We could lift just about every one. Now we're very annoyed. Mike comes back to fix everything. But he managed to make it look worse. The cracked one was never fixed (as of 10/4.) The mortar that he used was just plopped ontop of the bricks and not cleaned up or smoothed out. There are holes between my caps and bricks. We legit can see through it. They are lifted and just look terrible! There is mortar pouring over the sides. The caps aren't straight anymore either. They are shifted when they used to be at least pretty straight. Not to mention the mess they left. Dirt everywhere. Cement all over my driveway that we are now having to chip up and power wash everything. I was so excited to improve the outside of my house and now it looks worse than before. I do not recommend Gallagher Masonry unless you don't care about things being straight, done well and cleaned up.
