VDG General Contracting & Masonry was the best company we've had the pleasure to work with, and we've worked with several GC's through the years. They delivered exceptional work at very fair pricing. Vinny and his crew are talented and cut no corners, and I'm the type of person who heavily researches what our projects entail. They just completed a 2200 sq ft paver project around three sides of our house and nailed it! Perfect pitching and dry wells throughout, beautiful porch work, and stone upgrade onto our foundation walls. Came out even better than we expected. They have the equipment, staff, and love for what they do to get the job done right. We had estimated this project with 5 companies and chose VDG because Vinny went the extra mile to spend all the time we needed day of estimating, answered every one of our follow up phone calls, and later drove us around to several houses he worked on (where we went back to speak with the homeowners who all raved about him). During our project, which they knocked out in a week with a big crew, my family members told me Vinny was on site every day, worked alongside his crew at times to ensure everything executed perfectly, and came back every night to give me updates. This was the first time in my life I was not stressed about having someone work on my house when I wasn't there. That's how good they were. Most importantly, Vinny is an old-school soul with contemporary talent who lives on and keeps his word. He's honest and good to his core, and those values resonate throughout his company. I greatly appreciate it when I get to interact with amazing people like him and his crew because that's getting harder and harder to find these days. We highly recommend VDG. Now we're saving up so he can renovate other parts of our house.

UPDATE as of Nov 2018, VDG fell off on his communication with me. Guess chasing more lucrative jobs won out over coming back to finish final touches on our project. I figure he did not make much profit on our job since he was overly kind saying he'd "take care of it" and not realizing things adding up on the materials end. I had another company lined up, and Vinny convinced us with his promises, and did a great job in the beginning. At the end of the day, I had to constantly chase for the final-step IGS install after paying in full (my mistake). That finally happened which was a hassle but appreciated; however, I was stuck fixing/installing the balance of items myself he had promised to do. I installed a column he had us buy, and fix what turned out to be two poor pitching problems (where I had to retro-install a french drain so I didn't have an ice skating rink as a driveway come winter, and elevate a center section of section of walkway because it was pooling, and caulk the new steps he installed to prevent water damage. All stuff he and his crew said they would come back to fix, but they stopped answering my calls. Weird because we got him lots of other business immediately following our project, and had two other big projects our friends were going to put him on if he continued to keep in touch with us and do what he said. Unfortunately, we never heard back from them and had to move on. read more
