Q: Do you charge for estimates or design work?
A: "No. That’s part of our service. We’re confident that if we get a chance to bid on a project, you’ll choose us."
Q: What’s the main reason for differences in price estimates?
A: "Often, differences in price are due to a company bidding the least expensive materials. We’ll bid the materials most appropriate to your needs. We’ll use less expensive materials if you want, but only after we explain the pros and cons. We’re dedicated to customer service and want you to be happy with our work for years."
Q: How long will the job take? Will it be noisy?
A: "It depends on the scope of the project, but a typical paving stone and concrete installation takes less than a week. Limestone takes longer because the concrete has to set before we layer another material on top, which prevents cracking. Demolition is noisy and the most disruptive part of the job, but it’s usually completed in one or two days."
Q: What happens if you hit a water line?
A: "That happens sometimes, and when it does, we’ll fix it. If there’s a waterline two inches below the driveway and we need to go down 10 inches, we have to move the line. It’s part of the job."
