The Stone Porch

From the day we first met Daniel to secure a quote on the work we wanted done on a new stone walk and a number of window well upgrades we were impressed by his knowledge and competence and his willingness to explain the job as he would do it fully with us. Our window wells were pressure treated lumber structures which were installed over 30 years ago. They were disintegrating and required replacement. Daniel’s attention to detail and the thoroughness of his thinking when it came to the installation of replacement structures was evident from day one. In fact, his advice, professionalism and knowledge of his craft was evident throughout the project. Daniel was the only contractor who discussed with us the structural needs of the job including the drainage necessary to ensure that the ground would not shift and that the structures he installed would be stable and solid for decades.
After we contracted with him, we found that his team was terrific. Daniel was on site with the team every day. They were conscientious, arrived on time each morning and worked extremely hard throughout the four weeks of the project. Digging in our area is difficult with massive tree roots everywhere. Daniel and his team worked during some of the hottest days of the summer and early fall. As our project progressed, our designs evolved, and the team executed on our plans with mastery and craftsmanship.
The last thing I am going to say about working with Daniel and his company is that throughout the project, he was conscious of the project’s environmental footprint. Properly disposing of waste such as concrete and dirt, ensuring the former would be crushed and reused as aggregate rather than landfilled. This was a dimension of the project that we had not discussed with him, but it very much matched with our own enviro-friendly sensibilities.
The experience of working with Daniel and his team of professionals was terrific. We recommend them without hesitation and would work with them again on our next project.
